Here’s conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh’s take on why Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina is doing so well at the moment…
From The Blaze:
Rush Limbaugh said on his radio program Friday that he believes the mainstream media is “hyping” Carly Fiorina in an attempt to “get rid” of Republican frontrunner Donald Trump.
Limbaugh offered the theory after a listener called into his program complaining that the former Hewlett-Packard CEO is “evil” and will do “anything she can to get ahead.” The listener contended Fiorina is a “political insider” and asked “why the media keeps hiding everything on her.”
“Because they want to get rid of Trump,” Limbaugh replied, according to a transcript on his website. “It’s not that they like her. This is the mistake people are making. It’s not that they like Fiorina. They never liked McCain. They just made him think they did and everybody else. They don’t like any Republican.”
Limbaugh went on to note that the media chooses “our nominees for us” by “making us think they like them.”
What do you make of “El Rushbo’s” comments?
I think it makes sense, even though Carly more than held her own during the second primetime debate.
The man with the nicotine stained fingers is usually spot on with what he has to say, and I definitely wouldn’t ever want to get into an argument over politics with the guy, because I’m sure he’s forgotten more than I’ll ever know.
Many on the right (and obviously on the left) would love for the summer of Trump to end sooner rather than later, so hyping Fiorina (the lone woman amongst a crowded GOP field full of men) fits the bill.
The media and the GOP-E team up in trashing primary candidates. They narrow it down to two with whom either can live if they have to. Apparently — and Boehner mcconnel prove this — the gop-e is just fine living with Obama.
Go Rush!
The GOP-E still wants Bush. They need someone to get rid of Trump who is self-funded, very rich.
Fiorina will serve that end. They’re with Trump in suspecting Fiornia’s ability to win. After all, Barbara Boxer demolished Fiorina.
who’s going to believe that carly leads anything....anymore??
She’s been out of work for about a decade, hasn’t she?
Rush gets it right pretty regularly
Hey Limbaugh, there are people right here on FR who are parroting the leftist MSM and the corrupt in D.C.
Deceptive frauds abound.
Looking at it from the POV of there is only one party, it wants bush. Perhaps ultimately Hillary. Bush keeps Hillary out of having to debate or to do anything
Trump is so in the way of that
I want the media to show me some Carly supporters. Carly was at 4% a few weeks ago. Where did her supporters come from. Who did they abandon?
They got after me the morning after for remembering that the Planned Parenthood videos did NOT show a baby on the table having its face cut open to harvest its brain. It did have one of the participants talk about that act, but it did not show that act. Which is what Fiorina said it showed for purposes of emotional impact. I think she could have gotten the same impact by wording her comments accurately. Now she’s assisted in giving the media a talking point about the videos being a misrepresentation.
A riot is an ugly thing. Un it's about time we had one.
Trump gets about 70% of the media coverage, because he’s a showman and colorful character. Plus being a parody Know-Nothing candidate, an Archie Bunker born into wealth and emerging as a wealthy gambling mogul but without the basic Bunker niceness. This is what the left has always been longing for.
If the press is looking at Fiorina, it’s only because Hillary wants to kill her.
What about her Planned Parenthood riff would the establishment bless? She is not going to be the nominee but she could do well as an attack dog if she was sicced on Democrats.
No one believes them anymore. Regardless of their daily conga-line of malicious slander and attempts to discredit Trump, it won't work. I guarantee it. ☺
This is due to the fact most Americans for decades now have simply had enough of the lying MSM and the lying corrupt political professionals.
They'll learn this the hard way.
Dream on.
Meanwhile, Glenn Beck is pimping Fiorina like there is NO tomorrow!
Masthead.
My way of indirectly saying the same thing.
Interesting about the sudden rise. Did she do that well in the debate? I don’t think so. She did get a LOT of time and she did succeed in irritating Trump and kinda throwing him off his game.
She did have one good moment about abortion but she ruined it by using ‘fetus’ instead of baby.
She didn’t come across as likable or someone I’d want for President so where did the sudden support come from and is it real?
