In the midst of it Carl Cameron lies twice and gets clubbed.

1) you only got 34% of the Republican vote - Trump corrects

2) why are you calling all republicans losers - Trump corrects

They all live in an echo chamber of deceit. Today the press confirmed Trump’s assertion and didn’t even realize it.

Thanks you Donald Trump!

Pity he didn’t go further and ask the reporter if he’d spend the same amount of energy investigating the six billion dollars that went missing during H’s reign at the State Department.

Totally agree, Rush is finally trying to get on the Trump Train. Days late and $10 short. Politico thinks the Fluke episode accounts for his loss of ratings, blah blah blah. No, Rush’s show simply sucks. All his lack of preparation shows in his stuttering and stammering, one-sided and fake conversations with Snerdley, paper-shuffling, etc. That’s real compelling radio. He generally brings no original thought any more to his show. Haven’t learned a thing new from him in years, and now only occasionally tune in.

“A lot here dont like Rush but Ive always found him to be spot on.”

Even when he was backing Cruz and bashing Trump?

(I know, I know, he said he NEVER did that, but anyone listening to him for even a half hour between November and the day Cruz quit heard it loud and clear)

“Good grief , Rush was ALWAYS going to unite behind the GOP nominee . I don’t know why anyone is surprised .”

I’m not surprised by that. I’m disappointed in his 180 degrees on Trump without a word of explanation, after bashing Trump and pushing Cruz for so long. He was as close as I ever heard to endorsing a candidate. He was obviously trying to influence voters - period.

It was and is hardly honest for him to pretend otherwise.

But nearly as bad as Levine or Beck - although I give them a teeny tad of respect for not backing down now. When they do, I will take that respect back. ;)

I quit listening.

But I’m glad I can listen again because he is entertaining. I don’t trust him - never did after he backed W’s amnesty - but I will listen tentatively again.

Slowly, Rush seems to be waking up...
Now if he can just realize AM radio is almost dead.

This isn’t the first time Trump has called out a reporter during a press conference, so yeah, Rush is trying to get back into the good graces of his listeners who support Trump.

I don’t hold grudges and we need every voice we can get for Trump, so it works for me.

For those who didn’t hear it, he said yes it is because the press is dishonest and the political press is ESPECIALLY dishonest.

No “R” candidate had either the inner armor nor the outter armor to take on the Domestic Enemies of this election, who despise our country.

No one. None. Zero. Nada.

They were all losers for all the right reasons.

Professional career political climbers, perched in launching seats for more money, more power, more influence, and they are a dime a dozen.

NONE served as a human ground war thrown against this self inflicted American collapse going on.

Only TRUMP. Go TRUMP!

I listened...Just hoping for a day like today...It finally got here...

I don’t think as much of him as I did in the past, though....

Rush loading up onto the TRUMP TRAIN, has been an embarrassment to watch and painful.

Rush now must turn his Butt Hurt into some kind of rain maker financially.

When he could not see through Cruz, I knew he had plainly lost his political midas touch.

I think he finally the word CRUZ is a ratings killer. Wonder if Levin will ride it all the way to his death?

“I guess people hear what they want to hear “

No, I wanted to hear Rush being neutral, like he said he always was during primaries.

He bashed Trump often. And he portrayed Cruz as infallible.

Even after Cruz stole delegates and starting acting really creepy and weird, blaming Trump for the attack in Brussels for example - Rush said nothing about it. IF he had questioned Cruz’ statements on this, I would’ve considered him being fairly questioning both candidates.

But he wasn’t fair - he was trying to influence voters.

But I’m glad he’s turned it around. He really had no choice if he wanted to keep his career, so I’m under no illusions aobut it.

Shrillary would get all the airtime she wants if she were able and willing to interact spontaneously and honestly as Trump does.

But no, Shrillary and her team must tightly, tightly control all access with only rigid scripted events and rare (pretended) spontaneity.

The media should all be asking publicly why Shrillary is so shielded from them, why she hardly ever takes questions, why she is so afraid to speak without a script and teleprompter etc.

I think trump voters tend to acknowledge trumps fallibilities more than any other candidate.
I feel the same way. Trump is far from the best candidate but for this time, he is what the country needs.
