Poor Rush, not matter what he says everyone goes away mad. Cruz supporters accuse him of being in the tank for Trump/Rubio

Trump supporters accuse him of being in the tank for Cruz/Rubio

Rubio supporters apprently don’t come on this website.

You have to admit he's been slightly more critical of Trump than the other two. Trump stubs his toe, ergo the Pope stuff, and Rush was discussing how that was dangerous turf for Trump to be waltzing in. Cruz and to a lesser degree Rubio get passes for things they or their campaigns have miffed, or they have been defended. But to this point, Rush hasn't gone hard on Trump as he did on McCain in 00 and 08 and or Romney in 12. But I think it's coming.

Through the fall, Rush was less critical of Trump, but has been turning since just before the Christmas break. The negatives on Trump are being discussed more and more in a negative light.

Trump was fun and useful early on. I don't think talk radio and Rush really saw or expected the success Trump has had to this point. And that is beginning to bother them and Rush. Many of Rush's jaw bone media brothers and sisters have been much more critical of Trump than has Rush to this point. But I expect it to notch up more and more as Trump has more and more success.

Talk radio loved Trump when he was a side show. Now he's taken over center ring and they aren't happy.
