It’s a common smear by the leftists.

Now just imagine what a nightmare the convention would be if Trump was assassinated.

CALLER: It really was a question. I wondered if you saw a difference because of the different terms that you use when we’re talking about Trump support and the election.

RUSH: I’m not aware of using different terms. I guess that’s my — are you talking about when I use Trumpist and a Trumper —

CALLER: Yeah, Trumpist and Trumper, yeah.

RUSH: A Trumpist is just a term to describe. it sounds better than Trumper, to me. A Trumpist makes them sound intellectual. A Trumpist is a devoted supporter and understands what he or she is doing. A Trumper is just different sounding, better sounding, I think. I’ve even had some Trumpists tell me they don’t like the term. They think it’s derogatory. Well, you know, I got a friend in Hawaii who’s a huge, huge Trumpist but doesn’t like that term, tries to talk me out of it, which just makes me use it all the more.

But, no, don’t draw any inferences from the different ways I describe — I think most Trump supporters — what you’re basically asking me is active versus passive. And I’ll give you what that means, I’ll define that for you in terms of radio listeners.

Perhaps the democrats want a mutiny vs. Biden. Better that Trump peak too soon. It gives the time. Not much they can do though.

It would have been a hastily assembled Nikki Haley/Ron DeSantis ticket, or something close to that.

We are so lucky that bullet on Saturday was not an inch further to the right.
