Erick Erickson - Wikipedia

. . .

In May 2010, Erickson wrote in the RedState blog that he would be releasing evidence that Will Folks, a South Carolina GOP political operative, had made false allegations that he had an affair with gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley and that the allegations were “initiated by a rival political campaign.”.[20] Later that day, Erickson wrote, “I have no clue if anyone is behind Will Folks doing this. [...] With apologies to RedState readers, [...] I’ve had no hesitation in stringing the media along like Folks has done.”[21][22] Byron York, a conservative journalist, criticized Erickson: “[S]acrificing your own credibility in an effort to undermine someone else’s is not a good idea, and what Erickson has done has surely hurt both his own reputation and that of his website.”[22]

. . .

In April 2009, Erickson posted to Twitter a vulgar tweet about Supreme Court Justice David Souter upon his retirement. Later, Erickson admitted is was the dumbest thing he ever did.[31][32][33][34] In an appearance on the Colbert Report, Erickson said the Twitter statement was “not my finest hour”.[15]

. . .

Erickson has tweeted controversial remarks regarding feminists, including (in response to a 2010 Super Bowl ad) the following: “That’s what the feminazis were enraged over? Seriously?!? Wow. That’s what being too ugly to get a date does to your brain” [36] and “Turned on twitter today and there was a barrage of angry feminists upset with me telling them to get in the kitchen and learn to cook”; “Good thing I didn’t suggest the feminists ... you know ... shave. They’d be at my house trying a post-birth abortion on me”; “Feminists have no sense of humor, but clearly God did in creating feminists.”;[37]

Truth does not need an apology.

"when you get a tough question from a lady, is well, it must be her time of the month — and that was the clear implication"

No that is not the clear implication--- it is Eric Eric Ericson's implication because he is projecting his own belief system on to Trump's words.

Ditto that!

Sure it does, and it goes something like this: I’m sorry if telling the truth hurts your feelings - deal with it.

I bet that the removal of the invite was all part of the concerted effort. I figure that they knew that trump would not remove the third party bid possibility and that would of been the excuse if trump had not struck back at the moderator.

“”I apologized, and I'm not running for president,” Erickson said. “It's as simple as that. They're re-tweeting things that I already have apologized for. Donald Trump isn't apologizing for this. And I'm not a candidate for president of the United States. If you're a candidate for president, I think there are certain lines that you just can't cross.”

Like the disingenuous sticking your middle finger up at a rival candidate while pretending to scratch your face?

A line like that? The only people who go to RedState events are fans of RedState. Of course they are upset with Trump because they favor whoever Erickson tells them to.

If you are a Rush 24/7 member, then I suggest sending a private or 24/7 email to Rush, requesting that he removes Erick Erickson as a future substitute host - “disinvite” Erickson from ever guest hosting his show again.

I am a Rush 24/7 member myself and emailed him yesterday via private email. I believe many others are also requesting Rush remove Erickson as a substitute host as well. If enough folks do this, I’m sure Rush will address this on his show and hopefully “disinvite” Erickson on air as soon as Monday.

Rush has been on the receiving of vitriol not only from the left, but from RINO’s/GOPers for alleged disparaging remarks towards women and I’m sure has no respect for wimps and PC appeasers like Erickson. Rush probably feels some towards Trump on this subject.

Well, was she correctly diagnosed on Thursday or not? Maybe Howard Stern or Don Imus could question her about it.
