RUSH: You know, people have sent me questions: “You never did get to the Donald Trump-Paul Ryan contretemps.” That’s right. Right. You know why? Because it isn’t a priority with me. I’m sorry. I was gonna get into it, but in the grand scheme of things, it’s just another one of these (panting), “Gotta care about! Gotta care about it! Gotta write about it!” I’m gonna tell you everything you need to know about it. Basically what it is, is Ryan won’t endorse Trump yet. Trump comes back and says… Well, I forget what Trump said, but it was a typical Trump response. I’ll just tell you this. This is all you need to know.
If Trump, in order to get Ryan’s support, moves toward the Republican agenda, it is not good for Trump. That would be an error. It would maybe even be an unforced error. Trump is where he is precisely because he’s not perceived as being part of that. So if anybody’s gonna move here, it’s… I mean, Trump’s the nominee. Figuratively yet. He hasn’t got it locked down. But that’s my thought on it, that if there’s compromise here, it better be not Trump moving to Ryan. I know that’s blaspheme to some, but I’m sorry. It is what it is.
