The Daily Beast ^ | January 20, 2016 | Betsy Woodruff

Conservative talk-radio stars gleefully watched as The Donald rubbed everyone in media and Republican circles the wrong way. But now that he's turned his fire on Cruz, they're picking sides--and it's not Trump's.

In a gentler, tenderer age--an age long gone--Donald Trump brought talk radio hosts together.

These were the simple, balmy days of last summer, when radio talkers agreed that even Trump performed an invaluable public service by driving national media and the Republican establishment totally out of their minds. But those days are gone....

Donald Trump is a hardcore leftist cut from the same cloth as Bill Deblasio, Andrew Cuomo and Barack Obama.

Joe, stop smoking that stuff, it has clouded your brain.

“Cruz was fighting for us while Trump was still buying Democrat politicians. “

Cruz accomplished nothing while being paid big bucks by taxpayers. Trump created thousands of jobs.

Trump bought all kinds of politicians. Politicians like Cruz. When the donor calls, the politician says ‘How high?’

How is Cruz a RINO and Trump not? We know Trumps record. He has been lobbying politicians for years. Haven;t you listened to his speeches. He prospers by waving dollar bills under the noses of the like of the Clintons and the Bushes. He might be the classic aristocrat who champions the cause of the plebs. He is, warts and all, better than Clinton of Sanders, but a conservative Do we know what he wants to conserve?

Same team yes, logical running mates? I don’t think so any more. Possibly too much water under the bridge.

So are the Beck/Levin tag team now going after Sarah Palin for endorsing Trump? Do they agree with Border Security? I know Beck don’t. Trump is doing good. Cruz has a tougher battle to pass Trump.

Of course a Trump supporter does not want to hear facts.
So turn it off.

Cruz is not rude to Trump and does compliment him. Clearly you are not listening.

He was just on Hannity a few minutes ago and had nothing bad to say about Palin or Trump.

Yeah, un huh. Cruz was assisting a foreigner who had stolen an American’s invention, designs, patterns, and even his customer lists almost driving his to bankruptcy.
