Just breathe, OK? Trump is in. Cruz broke apart. And most Cruzers are now backing Trump, as you wanted.

Many hope FR will become again a place where we can respectfully agree to disagree (the American way), without the emotional, sophomoric, name-calling put-downs seen too often here in this cycle.

He endorsed Cruz? He used those words? Wow. That’s certainly a change from his past practice. He’s waved various pom-poms before during the primary process, but never actually endorsed a candidate - not to my knowledge, anyway.

Of course he didn’t, but you know that. You also know that he didn’t have to come right out and speak those words to convey his support for Cruz to his audience. And he did, for months and months.

No, I don’t listen to Rush regularly anymore, so I don’t know if he endorsed Cruz, or merely spoke favorably of him.

“I don’t listen to Rush regularly anymore, so I don’t know if he endorsed Cruz, or merely spoke favorably of him.”

Fair enough. I thought you were being sarcastic in your earlier remark. It came off a bit like a challenge, which is why I responded like I did.

Rush has spent nearly the entire primary singing Ted’s praises, and telling listeners that he was the only real choice for conservative voters.

Conversely, he took every opportunity to covertly insult Trump supporters, and covered Trump like an entertainment spectacle. Even after it became clear that Trump was dominating the race, and showing clear signs of taking total command of the primary, Rush refused to acknowledge it, and continued to play up the race, as if Cruz had some real chance of making up so much lost ground.

Rush was also painfully slow to criticize Ted for any of the many missteps that we Freepers were aghast at.

Rush only jumped in front of the Trump parade after Cruz and Kasich officially dropped out. To anyone who’s paid close attention to Rush these last ten months, he looks like the biggest hypocrite walking.

We were discussing this the other day here, and I started where you are at, only with Fauxcahontas.

Someone pointed out that this is probably too sophisticated for the average voter, that Trump works very hard to connect with the average Joe, and does so quite effectively. And given that, in this context, Pocahontas is the right moniker to use.
