Warning to Republicans: Don't Go Too Far on Trump Bashing

So the real danger isn’t that Trump goes third party. But that some of the GOPe are so vicious in their attacks on Trump that they end up throwing their support to a third party because they can’t walk back their criticism of Trump.

Its a simple matter.

Trump may not be trustworthy but he isn’t wrong. Its really a very simple concept.

You make an excellent point.

Rush: They're convinced that Trump's destroying the Republican Party -- which they want, by the way. They would love nothing better than for that to happen.

The Republican party destroyed itself Rush. It's why they've had to rename the party multiple times. They've got the RINO party, the Tea Party, the GOPe party.

A little something for everyone Rush?

Rush has become such a tool.

He golfs on Trump’s golf courses.

Yeah, pretty nutty.

In short, if you criticize Trump, he will threaten you by giving the race to Hillary.

Rush is such a tool.

All the other candidates really need to do is speak plainly and acknowledge that the American people are in no mood for anything less than border control and enforcement first and foremost. Start presenting some actual ideas on how to do it.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Nathan, Tampa, Florida. Hey, Nathan, great to have you on the program.

CALLER: Hi, Rush. Good to talk to you. Thanks for taking my call.

RUSH: You bet.

CALLER: I heard you just say something about the Republicans not having a chance to -- or not being careful about what they say, so they don't have to walk it back later. And I kind of like what Trump's doing right now, I like that he's telling the truth. But he's also telling the truth about the other candidates. He's saying what he thinks and it would be hard for him to walk back if somebody else is the nominee. So I'm wondering what scenario do you want right now? Do you want all the other Republicans not to say what they think about Trump and at the same time Trump can say these things --

RUSH: Oh, no. I haven't -- no, no. It's a good question because it's a logical conclusion. Okay, if I'm warning people about saying things you can't walk back, then I must have some idea of what I want to happen. No. I'm just making observances right now and quasi-predictions. Of course you're probably talking about, well, among others, Jeb Bush, when you talk about things Trump is saying that he would have a tough time walking back.

Don't forget, Trump is Trump. I think Trump, if he wants to, will be able to explain anything later on that he says about Jeb (imitating Trump), "Because Jeb called me, Jeb told me I was right, Jeb and I finally agree, Jeb's a great guy." That's vintage Trump to do it that way. Trump I don't think would have a problem walking back anything he said. That's really the major concern. The major concern is if one of these conservatives gets the nomination will the Republican Party rally around him?

You know, it's not just Trump, folks, that some of these so-called conservative media types are saying things are gonna be difficult to walk back. It's not just about Trump. Will the RINOs who want another McCain, let's be honest, they want another McCain, they want another Bob Dole, if they don't get that, will they support a conservative if one happens to be the nominee?

Rush is defending his buddy Trump.

They are as bad as Hillary.

Feel free to criticize any of the other candidates, but don’t pick on my Trump — per Rush

I noticed that Rush only says Trump is beyond reproach.

The reverse is also true. How does Trump support a nominee whose surrogates trashed him?

Ted has been speaking plainly for years. When Trump was still talking about granting a pathway to citizenship for 30 million!

Trump is the only one they’re all bashing!

Rush is smarter than the average Republican or what ever name they’re using today. You on the other hand have no clue.

How does Trump get support from the other candidates that he trashes consistently? Or their supporters?

Cruz is a whole package guy.

If you think is smarter than you, you are likely right.
