I agree with you he was officially neutral.
But I always felt he was secretly pulling for Trump, and that his “neutral” comments were extremely helpful.
It was as-if he recognized something of himself in the great showman, Trump.
“But I always felt he was secretly pulling for Trump, and that his neutral comments were extremely helpful.”
snort. If Rush was “secretly pulling” it sure was a well kept secret.
Rush first had a serious man-crush on the odious Marco Rubio, whom Rush keeps unaccountably touting as a Great Conservative Hope.
And then when it became obvious that the majority of the conservative electorate has no use for Ricky Ricardo’s long lost poolboy, Rush turned to Cruz, whom his brother supported.
He does deserve credit for never joining the neverTrump crusade along with Levin, but Rush certainly didn’t stick his neck out like Hannity, who for all his silliness was the strongest Trump supporter among all the talkers.
