I agree. I got the impression that Rush didn’t want Trump to win the primary. I always felt like he was for Cruz, though I couldn’t understand why. Cruz always struck me as a greasy weasel - pretty much like a used car salesman.

That, and the fact he wasn’t eligible (see my tag line).

Very well put. Yep, Rush likely thought that Cruz would do better in the White House...only problem was getting Cruz TO THE WHITE HOUSE.

Trump won because he was able to connect with WORKING CLASS voters in the Midwest. Take that away and I dare ANYONE here to tell me which states Cruz would have won that Trump didn’t.

In other words, Cruz, like McCain and Romney, would have ‘fought the good fight’ and would have ‘come up a bit short’. For without the Midwest, Cruz would have been a GREAT conservative candidate for PRESIDENT, and would have won, at most, 200 Electoral Collage votes...and likely would have politely been there as Hillary gave her inauguration speech...
