A thought; a candidate that feels the need to tell everyone how much more conservative they are than their opponent, probably isn't. Show me, don't tell me.
I agree, but I also think that what is conservative to you may not be entirely conservative to me, or what was conservative 200 years ago, may not be conservative now.
Trump thinks differently than any person we’ve ever had running for the office. What he lacks is polish.
He may not admit it in public, but he could benefit from people like Rove, Dick Morris and others. It can only make him a better candidate, and who knows maybe he does listen to the handlers.
But for now, he’s doing it his way.
I’ve cut back on Rush about 50%, but the last couple days he’s said some things I agree with. I admit Cruz probably is the most conservative, but he’s not the most electable conservative.
Limbaugh described Trump as a non-ideological candidate.
“Trump’s not a Republican; he’s not a Democrat,” he said.
“He’s running as a Republican, but he’s way beyond any of this. His definition of conservatism was we’re gonna conserve. We’re gonna conserve our money. We’re gonna conserve our whatever…. Donald Trump is not an ideological candidate. He doesn’t look, for example, at Chuck Schumer and see a screaming liberal. And, by the same token, he doesn’t look at Ted Cruz and see a screaming conservative.”
Limbaugh praised Trump for creating a broad, new coalition of voters and turning the political system upside down, but offered little doubt about his own political leanings.
“This is not a criticism of Trump. But for those of you that conservatism’s the answer and conservatism is the way, you have no choice here. Ted Cruz has got to be your guy. There’s nobody even close. Nobody.”
The other thing Rush says, which I agree with. He predicts that Bernie Sanders is going to come out for reparations for blacks, and Hillary will follow suit.
I think if these two people pull this on us, that’s fine. Once and for all let’s debate it. Let’s include the black slave owners. Let’s find their descendants and have them pay too, if money is to be paid.
