No, not a slam on your part but Rush is very influential. When he makes statements like that, when he cheers Cruz hitting Trump yet criticizes Trump for hitting Cruz, he is inflicting damage.
Intentional or not, Rush is pushing for Cruz at Trump’s expense. But he has to realize Cruz will never be President. Cruz doesn’t have Trump’s command of the media, he doesn’t have billions to denounce donor money, doesn’t have the business experience to restructure the U.S. economy.
He will never have Trump’s fans, never have Trump’s willingness to stomp on political correctness, never have Trump’s invincibility to the left. They will destroy Cruz in record time.
Sorry, climbing off my soapbox now.
I think you had one too many hits on the pipe and fell off.
To be fair, the minor criticism leveled on Trump on two occasions that I recall is based on the attack methodology he uses.
Most find the tactics to be somewhat contemptible and better saved for democrats. that is the extent of the criticism and that’s minor stuff. But to you and others, it appears, any criticism at all is as if you had dissed the Lord.
As to being a Conservative, I seriously doubt a conservative would use those tactics against another conservative. And You cannot deflect blame to a Pac. This is all Trump.
Trump may have a couple views shared by conservatives, but conservatism is a package of positions and understandings, and Trump does not have them, but in spite of that he appeals to some conservatives. But he also appeals to democrats.
