Rush Limbaugh Goes Full Nutter - The Most Illogical Pretzel Argument Ever Presented

The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 2-25-2016 | sundance

I know from the comments section many people have discussed how bizarre the recent ravings of Rush Limbaugh have become. However, I had not spent time listening to them, until this happened.

As far as I can tell this was actually broadcast by Rush Limbaugh yesterday. To say he’s contracted a viral strain of election cycle cognitive dissonance would be a severe understatement. Listen to this logic:

I know from the comments section many people have discussed how bizarre the recent ravings of Rush Limbaugh have become. However, I had not spent time listening to them, until this happened.

As far as I can tell this was actually broadcast by Rush Limbaugh yesterday. To say he’s contracted a viral strain of election cycle cognitive dissonance would be a severe understatement. Listen to this logic:

If Ted Cruz wants to win he’s got to focus exclusively on attacking Trump. Why? Because Cruz has to realize Marco Rubio is not going to drop out. If Rubio is not going to drop out, Rubio is not the obstacle – Trump is…

See if you can follow this logic. Marco Rubio is not going to leave the race, therefore it is the better course to attack the stronger frontrunner because, well, according to the Limbaugh logic, Trump winning in all the contests must mean he is positioned to leave the race – or something.

Seriously, this is what Rush Limbaugh is presenting to his audience. This makes absolutely ZERO sense. This is completely nonsensical. This is epic level moonbattery.

What makes Limbaugh think Donald Trump, a candidate who has won three consecutive resounding victories, is less disposed to staying in the presidential race than a freshman senator who has won absolutely no primary contests?

…And if Trump is no less committed to exit, then how does it make more sense to spend time trying to eliminate the stronger of the two candidate options?

We have heard rumors there are times when ineffective “gaslighting” can lead to absolutely insane expressions of logic. It would appear this rumor is profoundly true.

People pay this guy to hear this stuff?

To my knowledge he did not....and don’t call me Shirley.

...Iowa and New Hampshire is less predictive of campaign intent because all candidates HAVE TO make an impression to keep up appearances. However, even there, the real action is only within Team Trump and Team Jeb with Carson, Cruz and Fiorina doing the next closest effort...

...actually only Trump and Bush, have active efforts underway in every state to meet the qualification efforts for ballot placement...

“The naked, unbridled malice toward him is, frankly, sickening.”

---

As is his malice toward anyone who is not Trump. So I guess it’s a wash.

:: If Limbaugh doesn’t savage Romney for his scurrilous attack on Trump’s income taxes on his show today then Limbaugh will be revealed as a GOPe hack and a fraud ::

Whoa!
When did Romney get back in the campaign fray? (AKA: This is a frivolous argument. Seriesly.)

Sundance was Darren Wilson's staunchest supporter.

If he believes that Dorian Johnson assaulted officer Darren Wilson and it was covered up, then he believes that Darren Wilson committed perjury. Sundance is a flaming moron.

[Mount Athos]

Can we call him Sundunce now

“So you DID get that info from a hate-Sundance site?”

So you honestly believe there is a site out there who’s sole purpose is to hate on “sundance”? Seems a bit out there.

“Trump appears to peg his legacy on protecting our borders and building employment from within.”

Trump suits are made in Mexico and Trump ties are (were?) made in Red China.

Trump could move production to America and create jobs here. That would be a start.

The problem is: he has not done that. And he will not do that.

Awesome! Thanks

Very dishonest. Accuse Sundance of something he never said, and then call him a dunce for believing what he doesn’t believe.

[ConservingFreedom]

Who said the Trumpanzees climbing the Conservative Treehouse could read?

[Fantasywriter]

I read your entire excerpt, very carefully, twice. I could not find the following quotes;

‘Sundance boldly claimed that Jeb was the only candidate who could mount a challenge to Trump, and that Jeb’s non-existent Iowa ground game was “where the action is”.’

[jjotto]

You pays your money and you takes your choices.

[smoothsailing]

More demeaning. You just can’t answer a question, can you?

Very un-conservative of you.

[Fantasywriter]

Perhaps you have a link to the site on which the accusation was made? So far, no link forthcoming.

[Fantasywriter]

You and I are using the word ‘malice’ in one-hundred percent different ways.

[Fantasywriter]

So according to you, Rush read the article without giving his listeners even a hint as to WHY he was reading it?

Do you even believe that yourself?

[editor-surveyor]

.
Cruz happens to be the only candidate qualified to be president, and you want him to drop out?

Have we not been through this nonsense in the past half dozen presidential elections?

Has it come out well?

Will water run up hill?

[traderrob6]

That wasn’t my contention so feel no obligation to justify it.

[Fantasywriter]

If you’re not a career politician/lawyer, you should be. You have the gift of DC-speak. I.e.: you take forever to say nothing of relevance..
