Got a little tired of Rush today. His schtick was that Trump had a great speech yesterday (he did) but that he stepped on the news with this campaign shakeup.

Well, 1) the media will NOT report what Trump said, regardless
2) Trump probably had to come out with this because it was leaking anyway, and 3) this shakes them up badly.

You are right. All the MSM was reporting on Trump’s speech was that he delivered it to a white audience. That would have been the meme all day, and worse, if they’d continued. At least Trump derailed the MSM’s latest, ‘He’s a racist,’ pigpile.

Why did Limbaugh use the snarky term “Trumpbart” when referring to Breitbart. Why would a pro-Trump site offend Limbaugh? Does Limbaugh have a daily or weekly quota to stab Trump to keep his handlers happy? He only had three days this week, so maybe it is a weekly quota. He used Trumpbart at least twice, if not three times. He wanted to make his point stand out.

100% Agree! He came off pompous - then ignored the speech until 2:40-ish. My giving him the benefit of the doubt as being supportive of Trump is reaching its last straw.

Rush - either get fully behind Trump or become more insignificant!

None of the Propagandists have ever built a building, or a business, or a lemonade stand.

Trump with the people, versus Lies & Deceit.

I keep hearing ‘shake up’. Before this they were all saying he needed to broaden the campaign. He does and they all call it a shake up. All he did is hire 2 more people. Jeez.

The difference:

Paul Manafort: "The quality of mercy is not strained; It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath."

Steve Bannon: "I will crush my enemies and drive them before me. I will rejoice in the lamentations of their squishes and metrosexuals."

That is correct. So far Trump has given policy speeches on immigration, taxes and economy, foreign policy, and now domestic policy regarding crime and urban revitilization. And the media covered none of it. Yet they still keep saying "he has no specifics". Well at the debates he can cite all these speeches with their very specific policy items and challenge Hillary to show him the policy speeches she made. Which is ... none. It does take the teeth out of the "he has no specifics" if nothing else.

Andrew Wilkow is what Rush was in the early 90s. He is THAT good. I've stopped listening to Rush (I still read his transcripts) but Wilkow is on the same time slot as Rush.

I honestly can’t believe people still listen to Rush Limbaugh anymore. Why, when there is so much choice out there?

Rush has lost it, he’s no longer the effective warrior he once was.

He could have had a great show today if he reported the speech. Instead, he just meandered and said next to nothing.

I never thought I’d say Hannity was better, but right now, he’s head and shoulders above rush, has been for six months.
