“So you are calling Rush Limbaugh a liar now ?”
Why did Rush say he could not remember what Cruz’s statement was he made last week that set off Trump? His whole first hour would have been superfluous if he had acknowledged it.
I just caught the last part of Rush talking about what Trump said. Rush is now saying that Trump was responding in kind to what he thought Cruz said about him based on a story in the New York Times.
What Trump THOUGHT Cruz said?. No, it was what Cruz actually said. It was in the New York Times, but there is an audio of the comment; it is not a made-up article. I am sure Rush is aware that it is not just a story Trump based his comments on, but an audio, as Trump mentioned to Chris Wallace.
So he is sort of backing off, but still hitting Trump in the way he struck back, in the way the establishment hits Cruz. Well, the way the establishment hits Trump is the same way Cruz hit Trump. The moderators in the second debate used the same exact judgment angle against Trump that was put out there by Jindal and others.
I have tried, and failed, to get anyone here to admit that Cruz’s statement was a low blow. As Rush finally said (and what I have been saying), Cruz was RESPONDING IN KIND to what Cruz said.
Rush, If I can recall played Cruz’s comments, so did Sean Hannity.
Besides ?
It wasn’t long ago that Trump shot the first shot over Cruz’s bow letting Cruz know that Trump is going to have to go to war and declare war on Cruz if and when Cruz gets close to his territory in the polls, or rises in the polls.
I would say all is fair in love and war.
Ted Cruz knew already what was coming, it was not a cheap shot at Trump by Cruz, Trump already declared war on Cruz, it was fair play.
