There is no single human that can replace Rush. The best I can come up with is a rotating microphone. Either daily or weekly, get the best conservative minds in his spot, to provide different perspectives each time. And hopefully Bo Snerdly stays on.

Hour after hour of interviews with people who lost their jobs due to Joe Biden executive orders. When done, hour after hour of interviews with those who lost relatives due to Cuomo decisions. Next up those who lost their family members fighting democrat wars in Middle East.

Intristin. Maybe a rotating MAGAphone. Trump jockeys the MAGAphone sometimes, but others he selects hosts. Or perhaps a small selection committee chaired by Trump. Either way, he'd have various folks consulting with him as to potential hosts.

Favorite Rush guest host, and probably the funniest person in conservative media.

I just can't think of one person that can do what Rush does. Hannity couldn't sniff his jock... I like Beck but he has a different vibe than Rush. Mark Levin, Dennis Prager are all.good... but no one tops the Rushbo.

He was the Michael Jordan of political talk radio. Definitely the top of the totem pole.

Tucker just renewed his contract with fox so I don't know if he could or would do it.

I would like to see beck do it but he's definitely not the same as rush.

I'm going to throw out a wildcard name and say James Woods.

The truth flows from rush like nobody I’ve ever seen. He will be missed. I don’t think that void can be replaced. It will require something different. Otherwise, you get some hacks trying to fill the shoes of legends like when Leno and Letterman left...and look how that turned out.

I'd rather listen to Rush's recorded shows. No one can replace Rush.

Dan Bongino would be my choice to ease the pain right now...

Like Dan, but he isn't close to Rush. No one could get under the lefts skin like Rush did.

I like Levin, but he’s too abrasive. The only person that has a chance to even come close to Rush is Mark Steyn.

That’s a shame, I used to like watching him.

Levin is who I suggested but I do understand how stark the two are and how he’s not the fit.

It isn’t Bongino. Not now anyway.

I think the voice of Rush is not for replication — his thoughts, insight, humor, and ability to entertain for 180 minutes. The same ideals must come along but with a new voice.

You cannot just be another Rush. Very few people can be known by one name and be known by all people on all sides. Although Tucker might actually fit the Bill in that regard.

The key to Rush was his humor and charm, which Levin lacks. Levin has his own strengths.

Steyn is good too and hilarious, but doesn't educate the audience quite to the degree Rush does. But Steyn might be the best alternative
