Back in 2016, just as Donald Trump was closing in on the numbers needed to cinch the Republican Presidential nomination, Rush suddenly found it necessary to tell us all what excellent candidates each of the other contenders were.
Even Marco Rubio.
Quote: "Rubio isn't a moderate centrist. He's a legitimate, full-throated conservative." [

Rush didn't exactly pull Trump back from the finish line, but he did what he could to make sure every other candidate had one more chance to surge to the front and get over that line ahead of Trump.
We all knew that Rubio was one of the Gang of Eight that tried to sell out our country with the treacherous amnesty deal. Rush knew that Rubio was not a "full-throated conservative" and we knew that Rush was lying to us that day.
So, why did Rush put his best interests aside and lie to us that day? Anyone want to bet there is something a little more serious than doctor shopping for pain pills in Rush's dossier?
Thank you for the link to the show where he made that statement. I’m still looking for the one where went even further and said Rubio was in the same mood as Reagan! I was livid when he said that. I commented on it here at the time as I questioned whether I had heard him correctly.
Now I know the time line to search in. Thanks again.
As for the pain meds stuff, no clue.
