“That’s funny. Earlier in the year the Trump people accused Rush of support Cruz, and the Cruz people complained he was support Trump. Sounds about right.
Rush has repeatedly said he’s Anybody But Hillary, and he’s also repeatedly said he will actively support the nominee. But that due to his position, he will not support anybody until then.”
The difference is that the Trump people were correct, and the Cruz people were delusional. In fact, Rush made fun of Trump, hung up on callers who supported him and took great delight in reading every anti-Trump article he could get his hands on (which wasn’t hard, since the media was churning them out 24/7) - all the while proclaiming that Ted Cruz was “the ideal conservative” and dismissing the idea that Cruz would ever lie about anything.
Now that the contest is over (knock on wood), however, I’d expect him to come out and support our candidate. If he has, it’s been about as enthusiastic as Paul Ryan’s endorsement (which is basically tantamount to no endorsement at all).
Of course, to be fair, I don’t listen to Rush every day, so he might have endorsed Trump and I’m simply unaware of it. I’m happy to be corrected, if that’s the case.
Maybe you were listening to a different Rush person than I was.
I never heard him laugh at Trump in a bad way. He was laughing at how Trump was running circles around the media and amazed at how none of the attacks seemed to be hurting him.
The only time I’ve heard Rush cut someone one is either they were an idiot, or he’s up against a hard break.
Again, Rush has said he’s Anybody But Hillary, and he will support the Republican nominee. Anybody Against Hillary.
