Limbaugh: Trump Built the ‘Coalition’ the GOP Claims to Want —
Breitbart ^ | February 10,2016 | JEFF POOR

Posted on 02/10/2016 5:38:19 PM PST by Hojczyk

"Trump won, the exit polls were right," Limbaugh continued.

"Trump won men. He won women.

He won every age group.

He won every ideology. Liberal, conservative, moderate, Libertarian.

Every group Trump won a majority of voters. He won among people who had gone to college and people who hadn't. He won among people who only had a high school education; he won among people who did not have a high school education.

He won every single age bracket. He won those groups by huge margins. He won men 3-to-1 over second place finisher. Women he won 2-to-1. Voters under 30 he won 2-to-1. Nearly 40 percent of those who had not attended college voted Trump. A third of those who had attended college voted Trump. This is what the Republican Party's been telling us they need to win. I've had 'em come to my office. I've told you. I've had Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)94% here, Mitt Romney's here.

One thing they've all said in common is that Republican Party can't win with Republican votes alone anymore. We have to branch out, we have to reach out. This is what they were telling me to prepare me for some of the campaign tactics that I was gonna see. That they were gonna have to reach out and immigration was one of the ways of reaching out, supporting amnesty."

But instead of praising Trump for this accomplishment, Limbaugh argues the GOP is criticizing Trump instead.

"Well, all along Trump has built that coalition the Republican Party claims to want and they're out there badgering it and bashing it," he added. "It's exactly what they claim to want.

They could have had it. The Republican Party could have had the Trump coalition. They could have had it at health care.

Is it fair to say that I could declare your support for your particular candidate means that you are a brain dead slug without any redeeming qualities?

Am I to assume that since you posted this particular vile piece of garbage slamming fellow members that support a candidate different from yours that we can believe that you a more than a worthless piece of flotsam?

Than what makes you think that you can assume since I support a candidate different from us, that I am a zombie?

Lighten up Francis and go feed the cats next to you have the urge to post such imbecility.

And that is fine. Why should he alienate half his audience for supporting one side over another. The general is something different, but during the primaries he is there to sell Sherries Berries and whatever else they pay him to sell. If half his audience tunes out...there goes Rush’s advertising revenues.

This was my request:

Could you fart your Cruz gas on a non pro Trump thread. We need clean air. Might as well have a smelly bunch of pot, body odor and patchouli stinking hippies in here.

Ted Cruz = GOPe?

There has to be a 12 step program for your kind of crazy. You don't know very much about derivatives, especially credit derivatives, but I'm sure you know that Trump and Goldman Sachs do business together. Are the names "Goldman" and "Sachs" a problem for you as well?

Dick Cheney is a member of the CFR. Is he no longer a conservative in your special brand of crazy? Just yell HALLIBURTON!!! and I'll understand.

Can you say Thorazine?

This all sounds exactly like the McCain campaign, including the big rallies. In a general election, it will end the same.

And Cruz’s latest rally had 200 people in it. I just wonder how many states Cruz would get in the general. He may get 15 maybe. Ronald Reagan was a nice cheery conservative which we loved. Ted Cruz is an unfriendly conservative which I don’t think people like.

And Goldman Sachs is just part of the Globalists/CFR/NWO high powered cabal Ted and Heidi have assembled as their most trusted advisers. From the H1-B visa thing, the Corker/Iran sellout and supporting Barry on his America destroying Obama Trade crap.......Ted Cruz is not who folks think he is. Nothing even close.

I know enough about the global derivatives situation, in real numbers as a function of dollars and man hours, to understand that you are a fool.

And, no - I have not any issue with Jews, if that is what you are attempting to imply by your asinine cheap shot.

Do the letters F.O. have any meaning for you?

Cruznadians feel inferior having to prove they are natural born.

Standards? Yeah, unlike you, I have them. I insist that someone who wants my support agree with me more than he disagrees with me, and no, I’m not going to dismiss or ignore the cognitive dissonance.

Since we’ve been working, pretty much nonstop on politics since 2008 here in Wisconsin, no, I’ve not been on FR a lot. We were a little busy, what with the recalls and the tea parties and all. You do remember the tea parties, right? How all us “worst kind of conservatives” were busy trying to take the senate so we could stop ObamaCare?

While at the same time, “conservatives” like Trump were writing checks to Harry Reid, while we were writing checks to Sharron Angle, his tea party challenger. Well, it’s a few years later now, and Trump still supports government controlled health care, while some of us remained true to our principles and still oppose it.

People like you, on the other hand, are willing to excuse virtually any transgression from Trump because he assures you “it will be terrific.” That makes you the worst kind conservative: a gullible, malleable, unprincipled one, who jumps for the shiny object while completely losing sight of the goal.

Don’t waste your time on those prigs. They are ignorant. They are truly clueless.

I also understand the fraud of derivatives and how it is going to crush the monetary system. On top of that mothers mothers mother was Isabella Saks, a full blooded Jew. Given the matriarcal passage of “Jewness” it makes me a Jew, and I agree... F.O. to other poster.

If you support a statist like Trump, you were never a libertarian to begin with.

"Rush has been on a roll of insightful observations these past weeks."

After all these years he continues to amaze me.

He's still the most insightful political analyst in America.

THE most corrupt, most leveraged financial institution in the world (549:1 as of 12-31-2013) via derivatives exposure and credit default swaps.

If I bet $10 on a baseball game between two teams worth a combined $2 billion, is my leverage 200 million:1?
