I’m grateful to Rush for all he’s done, but his best days are behind him. When his contract was about to run out last year, I hoped he would call it quits. But I knew his ego wouldn’t permit it. Sure enough, he re-upped for four more years.

There are times when Rush veers from the reservation. I recognize that.

Still, at the end of the day we are very lucky to have a guy that is that effective in disseminating our position on things.

He stomps on Leftist ideology constantly. He nips many problematic things in the bud.

I listen to him, and frankly he has a very good batting record. He is pushing Trump as much as anyone can right now.

He’s not favoring McConnell or Ryan on anything. He is playing it up that they have done absolutely nothing. He plays it up that we are missing a massive opportunity right now, solely because of Congress. And he’s right. I’m very happy he reinforces this. Primaries are coming.

So while I do think some things Rush does over time need to be addressed, he has been a godsend for Conservatism.

I don’t know of one other person who even comes close, and I believe Rush now has something like 27 million listeners.

Prior to and after the election he has had a massive surge in online subscriptions.

There are little things that he shoots down.

The idea Trump is unfit to be president re Article 25.
He has harped on the NFL non-stop.
He has addressed the Weinstein problem, how Hillary and Bill figure in...

He covers a lot of ground.

I am a big supporter of Rush. I don’t always agree, but I’d defend his actions on our behalf stridently.

Folks, we as FReepers bicker. Nobody is going to agree with us 100% of the time. If we can get 95% out of them, we’re damn luck. If we can get 95% out of them when 27 million folks are tuning it, it’s almost miraculous these days.
