Never thought a day would come that I’d describe Rush as low info, but damn if that isn’t what he’s become. I seriously cannot believe how far he’s missed the mark in analyzing this election.
I heard Rush today over my lunch hour. What he was saying is extremely nuanced. It is almost Socratic. I find it pro-Trump, and very important to the growing philosophical foundation of the Trump movement.
He does weigh some pros and cons, and he does give creds to Cruz and even Rubio, but he never fails to point out that the real battle here is against the Democrats, who are actively opposed to America. And he is not just being pragmatic in is subtle support for Trump. He is saying that saving America is the only thing that matters right now, and Trump is right on target to accomplish this . . . perhaps uniquely suited because of his ability to fight off both the media and the establishment.
He is exactly right on in his analysis, he just doesn't like who is winning. He has done everything except release a statement of support for Cruz yet people here complain that he is in the tank for Trump.
Rush is clearly friends with Rubio and is willing to overlook some of his short comings.
I think he wishes the other candidates had recognized what the people see in Trump but they don't.
The great part of this show today was when he pointed out he had spent his entire career criticizing the Clintons and Obama and the result has been two Clinton terms and two Obama terms with Hillary poised to win the nomination.
The GOP refuses to recognize the level of contempt the people have for the political class and Trump is taking advantage of it. Any of the candidates could have done the same thing and it is telling that they didn't.
Like Rodney Dangerfield said: “You’re way off pal.”
