Rush did a pivot in the second hour. Some have suggested that he got a hold or listened to the leaked audio tape where Cruz questioned Trump’s judgement.
That doesn’t really make sense. Rush’s criticism was that Trump attacked Cruz like the Dems or the Establishment would from the left. Nothing in an audio tape, certainly not something as mild as what Cruz said, is going to change that fact.
I think that is exactly what happened.
Apparently Rush was very much quoting the story “from Cruz’s standpoint” if you will, originally.
Unfortunately for Rush, there were two sides to the story, and actually it was Cruz who started the disagreement.
Cruz started it. Now what he said wasn’t outright nasty or anything, he was actually pretty level-headed but he did speak first so Trump responded.
Trump doesn’t start these things.
Rush didn’t know the whole story, and should have researched it more, before commenting this morning.
Just saying.
I wonder if he started getting a barrage of emails...giving him the what for, for not mentioning the part where CRuz hit first....figured it out, then changed his tune a bit.
