Trump: Ted Cruz Ruined His Career, I Don't Want His Endorsement! "What Difference Does It Make?"
RealClearPolitics ^ | July 22, 2016 | RealClearPolitics

Posted on 07/22/2016 9:04:57 AM PDT by i88schwartz

At a victory event on Friday morning Republican nominee for president Donald Trump thanked supporters and took a shot at Sen. Ted Cruz for his speech Wednesday night at the RNC where he did not endorse the candidate and said to "vote your conscience."

"I don't want his endorsement. I don't want his endorsement. Ted, stay home, relax, enjoy yourself."

At this point, Trump got it just right. He explained that Cruz changed his speech AFTER he handed it in for approval. Trump explained that Cruz has never denied that it's dad in the photo with Lee Harvard Oswald, and saying they were in a photo together isn't saying papa Cruz was involved. Trump explained that it was Cruz supporters that released the photos of Melania, and Cruz NEVER renounced that.

If Cruz supporters don't distance themselves from Cruz at this point, why would we want them on our side? It's a talking point IN OUR FAVOR that Cruz supporters want hillary to be President!

Rush, I’m giving you 5 more minutes to offer some type praise for Trump’s terrific speech; if not, I’m out of here!

Wow, I may turn Rush on in a few minutes just to hear his BS.

Funny how he demands conservative perfection from Trump but Romney, Rubio and Cruz are ‘full throated conservatives’ who he fawns over.

Remember, he makes MILLIONS off of US. If Hillary is not elected, his audience will dwindle. I think he makes subtle moves to keep dems in power so that he can maintain the angst in his audience.

Maybe he should get a Boat and go Fishing on Lake Tahoe.

I hear the lakes in Canada are very nice.

When Rush went “full-throated” on Rubio, I knew he was not the conservative he has portrayed himself to be.
I used to be a daily listener.
No more.

Turning Limbaugh off now. Went to his first break at 25 minutes in, and NOT ONE compliment or praise about trump’s great speech!

FURL!

I will not listen to Rush today if he is giving Trump the old “concern” troll treatment.

You can't see Rush, but that's him up in the cab of that TrollOmotive ...

“Hmmm, Rush is expressing some “concerns” over Trump’s speech, and that some things were “problematic”

Why is it I have a feeling Rush isn’t going to let his love affair with Cruz die? I hope I’m wrong here, but Rush is sending out vibes that trouble me.”

I know. I took a few years off and only started listening to him again this year. He’s not the same guy. It’s all BS and evasion and not saying things he SHOULD be saying (like: “I endorse Donald Trump,” for instance). Hell, he even tried to weasel out of Cruz’s sickening betrayal by saying “what’s wrong with saying vote your conscience?” - Uh, huh. Nice try, Rush.

So... yeah. Put him in the box with George Will, Bill Krytol, Mitt Romney and other GOP-e losers. He seems to be one of them in spite of the fact that he spends three hours a day pretending he’s something else.

To all that say move on from Ted Cruz,

I say this to you.

Trump’s instincts guided him to the nomination.
I trust his instincts more than yours.

Logic would demand that Limbaugh could find it within his sometimes devious self to cover for Trump, if he really thinks that.

Trump is, after all, the only thing standing between Hillary and the complete destruction of the country as we have know it.

The die is cast.

Limbaugh can parade his purity after Trump is elected and Hillary is sent out to pasture. Until then, Limbaugh can STFU.

Amazing.

And what was more newsworthy to talk about than Donald Trump’s speech?

Rush is so done,obsolete.

The country is hanging by a thread, but he will not lift a finger or get out from behind the golden EIB microphone to help save this country.

He is a minder, to calm you all down, to listen to Daddy, and stay on the GOP plantation.

He needs to retire, sell his iced tea and write more kids books.

By the way Rush, you could at least admit sometime you use FreeRepublic for your show prep.

Exactly!

Rush had no problem covering for his buddy Marco joining the Dems in the “Gang of Eight.”
