Rush Limbaugh: Ben Carson ‘Not Equipped’ To Be President

During an interview, speaking to Chris Wallace, over the weekend, Rush Limbaugh said that Ben Carson was "probably not" equipped to be president.

"One of the most decent human beings in this country," Limbaugh said of Carson. "One of the finest men. I've met him, and the things that he's done, places he's come from, he's just one of the most decent human beings," said Limbaugh, during FOX News Sunday.

When asked by Wallace if Carson was "equipped to be president?" Limbaugh had a blunt response. "Ben Carson equipped to be president? Um - probably not at this stage," Limbaugh replied, according to Newsmax.

"But any of these Republicans running would be better than Hillary or better than anything we've got now, so on that, based on that comparison, yes. I would vote for him if it was up to him and Hillary. Absolutely, without a doubt," said Limbaugh, according to the National Review.

Limbaugh also criticized President Barack Obama and his response to the recent Paris attacks.

"Donald Trump is, I think, doing a great service," Limbaugh said. "He is showing that you do not have to fear attacks from media. He's showing you do not have to fear being politically correct or violating political correctness," said Limbaugh of Donald Trump, seeming to support Trump, reports the National Review.

On Ted Cruz, Limbaugh said, that he was "Brilliant, just absolutely brilliant. And conservative through and through. Trustworthy, strong, confident, leader, and somebody in whom you can totally depend," according to Newsmax.

Jeb Bush, though, didn't garner much support from Limbaugh who opined that the former Florida governor didn't seem to really want to run for president.

"I'm watching, and I just - I don't see passion. I don't see fire," Limbaugh said. "It's as though people in his camp want him to do it because they want to get back in power," said Limbaugh, according to Philly.com.
