On Trump, Erick Erickson Rises To The Occasion (Rush Limbaugh Does Not)
Daily Caller ^ | 08/08/2015 | Matt K. Lewis

Posted on 08/08/2015 5:42:03 PM PDT by nhwingut

A while back, I urged Rush Limbaugh to use his incredible influence on the right and call out Donald Trump for his irresponsible comments. In the intervening weeks, Trump’s rhetoric only intensified. Yet, even after Thursday night’s GOP debate — when it became painfully obvious that Donald Trump is a liberal — Limbaugh continued to prop up The Donald. I don’t want to be accused of misrepresenting what he said, so I’ll simply provide the headline and link from his own website: “The Orders to Take Out Trump Must Have Gone to Fox, Not the Other Candidates.”

Even if Mr. Limbaugh buys this conspiracy theory that Fox News is somehow in cahoots with the Republican “establishment” to go after Trump (frankly, they were pretty hard on all the candidates), and even if Mr. Limbaugh doesn’t care about Trump’s unchivalrous attacks on Megyn Kelly, why is he so unconcerned about Trump’s obvious liberalism?

There’s a reason Rush is where he is, and Erikson is where he is.

jebtard! doesn't care. He's not in this to win. He's in this to make sure that cankles wins, or if not, that he's available to do whatever it is that his boss Soros wanted cankles to do. Agenda 21 stuff.

One thing that will never define nor identify as real conservatism is the MSM, no matter what they pretend to call themselves.

The media works and promotes the corporate liberals and their establishment agenda, and never the Bill off Rights, the Constitution and conservatism of and by the people. The media plays the little people as suckers for their personal wants.

Matt Lewis is a long time employee of The Cheap Labor Express. He was an amnesty shill back in 2007-8 for McCain.

Everything you see his name on is written for propaganda purposes.

He is worse than Jebbifer Rubin.

Jeb was a tough guy today in front of his redstate rinos...

'There's a candidate, a couple of candidates, complaining that their questions were too tough…'

'You think that's tough, how about dealing with Putin?'

Isn’t Friday/Saturday the slow news? I mean people are doing stuff on weekends and most of it doesn’t include following politics.

CPAC brings in a lot of good speakers who aren’t GOPe but its ultimately a shill for the Republican Party whom we all must dutifully support in the end.

Let the GOP die right here, right now.

Exactly. Does anyone else find it interesting that they don't seem to care if they drive Trump to a 3rd party run? I don't think they care who wins, the cartel is bigger than any one person no matter who it is.
