Yep. The legendary Rush jumped on the Rubio bandwagon in the 2016 primary. He called him a “rock ribbed conservative,” and he hasn’t restored his credibility with me since. What a ridiculous thing to say in 2016.

Rush, Levin, Medved, Loesch, and a lot of others didn’t want Trump, instead preferring traditional GOP candidates that wouldn’t accomplish anything meaningful even if they got lucky and became president.

A few believed in Trump, though - Hannity, Savage, Ingraham I think. Maybe others.

The radio hosts are just disc jockeys. It’s just a show. enjoy it but these guys cultivated a status quo that accomplished no enduring conservative goals in about 30 years. It’s hard to shake that one off.

Game over.

These people make their living pontificating about politics and policy. Our government became so entrenched with career politicians that nothing ever got done, and what little they did accomplish was done at a glacial pace.

This allows the pontificators the ability to have their radio and TV shows and blather on about this or that policy or bill that was winding its way through the House or Senate.

Donald Trump is a man of action and is not a politician. He expects things to get done, yesterday, and under budget. What good is being a radio show host, trying your best to sound so profound and thoughtful, when the events of the day in the White House have already passed you by?

All these knuckleheads making millions by talking need the old status quo to keep themselves relevant.

Name the show where Rush endorsed any candidate in the primary, because I must have been dead that day

I have not missed rush in 20 years.

Never ever has Rush endorsed any candidate in the primary, unless it is a Republican incumbent President.

You need to stop telling lies!

Yep, he said the same about GW Bush.

Red flags go up when they think they have to tell conservatives who is or isn't a conservative.
