I don’t think Rush minds the name-calling. I think it’s kind of a Trump tactic - which is to use the ‘outrage’ of the Left against them.
Rush figures he’s invincible (which he is), given his medical condition, so when the Left floods his sponsors, the sponsors, for once will tell the Left to go to hell, so he’s safe there (and it’s not like he said what he thinks of their ‘lifestyle’, as he used to in the very early days of his show - he did some colorful comments back then).
BUT - he’s also, likely correctly, thinking that Mayor Pete will put his ‘partner’ in the closet, once the Democrat Primaries are over (with the help of the media, of course) - this could be Rush’s way of outing Mayor Pete, even though that’s all we identify him as...Remember, most of the country has yet to even hear of him.
Very true. My husband had no idea Mayor Pete was gay until I told him this week.
Wish I could listen to Rush’s colorful comments about homosexuals.
