10:23 A.M., and Rush has still NOT mentioned Mr. Haney picking Carly Fiorina as his VP! He’s talked about every other non-story, but nothing about Cruz picking Carly for VP. This is Twilight Zone stuff here!
During the era of Carter, we kept hearing the term The Ugly American, regarding foreign policy.
As soon as Reagan took over, American flags were once again flying hight and PROUD.
Many voters are seeing the same potential for Trump. After 7+ years of the bow-down president, many voters are looking for some president who is more than the establishment pusher. Trump’s Make America Great Again resonates.
Hi, SWB.
As a professional historian, I agree 100%. America Firsters were NOT anti-defense. They wanted to build up the army and navy, but not get involved in Europe.
Now, I think they were wrong. In retrospect, we see that Russia was able to repel the Nazis-—but it was damn close. I did a study on US air power and bombing, where the Germans spent 30% (!!) of their military resource to stop the bombing. Anyway, I looked at Kursk, the key tank battle in the East, if the Germans had 30% more airplanes-—and they would have won. You can get carried away with “what ifs,” but for sure they wouldn’t have collapsed as they did in the East without the incredible siphon of US bombing, even before D-Day. The America Firsters were also correct that we were not prepared for war (actually, FDR did a very good job with what he had getting us ready).
But Trump is fine using the line. Our people today are so clueless of history that they don’t know what the term meant, what it might have meant, or what people want it to have meant.
Great point, navymom. Trump’s primary votes have now surpassed the total of ALL of Mittens Romney’s primary votes.... With 10 states to go, including California.
Trump rally at 1 PM eastern time today in Evansville, IN.
Bobby Knight will also be there.
Turn off El Douchebo and watch a positive rally instead of Rush spin for Lyin’ Ted.
I can only imagine the insults Trump texts to Boehner. Should be fun.
Yes, he mentioned it early. It’s “delegate strategy” to get CA. (LOL!)
Rush playing the Nazi card against Trump is a trick routinely pulled by snotty liberals. Very disappointing.
It would be an embarrassing thing for Rush to admit about R. Cruz, regards his judge of character.

Thank you for the information! I’m real close to turning Rush off!
I know... It’s incredible. Mr. Haney’s pick of Carly for running mate was yuuuge news yesterday. Is he going to avoid talking about this big change in his guy Cruz’ campaign for all 3 hours??
How will you tune in to the Trump event? Linky? Thanks!
We must be listening to different programs together.
Was Limbaugh insulting Bob Knight? If he is I would like to punch Rush in the nose. I am not listening, of course.
Insulting Knight won’t help Lyin’ Ted one bit.
The Boner statement calling Cruz a SOB is a pathetic attempt to create a fake narrative that Cruz is anti-establishment. Of course, Boner also loves Trump.
This is the kind of stuff that lawyers dream up. Like I am watching an episode of Better Call Saul.
Anyone who falls for this Kubuki is a total dimwit.
Be of good cheer all. This level of desperation tells us that Trump pretty much has this wrapped up.
First half hour and already over 70 replies. Now, to read the comments.
Yes, you’re right. Unfortunately, Rush has missed an opportunity to explain who ordinary American Firsters were. But then he supports Cruz so why would he?!
