Radio host Rush Limbaugh used Wednesday’s show to do an experiment on Donald Trump’s supporters.
“I found a YouTube last night, and I’m gonna play this for you, and I’m curious to know how Trump supporters react to this,” Mr. Limbaugh told his audience before playing a 2012 clip from Fox News’ “On the Record with Greta Van Susteren.”
Mr. Trump said at the time that he thought Hillary Clinton was a “terrific person.” He also called former President Bill Clinton a “really good guy.”
Mr. Limbaugh then used his email account to gauge reactions to the broadcast by the billionaire’s supporters. He also asked listeners to weigh in on the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
“This is exactly what I was expecting,” the host said after a commercial break. “One reaction is, ‘You know, this would make a great ad debunking how Trump is attacking Hillary because she’s a woman. This can just get rid of all of these attacks that Trump’s out there hitting her because she’s a woman, that Trump hates her or whatever.”

I stopped listening to Rush and his deluge of annoying ads after he helped Barry get elected with his asinine Operation Chaos marketing scheme. That’s correct, “asinine”. I am sure with this recent,staged stunt that he received the intended reaction. Is he still referring to “long haired maggot-infested dope smoking FM types” in-between popping Oxycontin pills - hypocrite much Rush? If it makes you feel better, then feel free to condemn me for this “blasphemous” comment, but just know that I started listening to Rush in 88, and I believe his first book - still on my shelf - was brilliant. Still... That was Rush then. This is Rush now.
What’s a conservative?
I thought it was adherence to the Constitution and belief in God-given rights, individual liberty and responsibility, limited government, federalism.
Cruz has been a champion of these things, but has Trump articulated them, or even given them much consideration?
Because I'm not deluded by Trump and don't make excuses for him at every turn doesn't mean I'm a Never Trumper. It just means I'm a realist. I'll take him over Hillary any day. But he will disappoint you people eventually. There will be a limit to the excuses you can make for him.
Thank you for the vote. Now stop the whining and lets focus on Hillary and enough with the negativity which can be applied to all the candidates that were running. None are perfect.
Sarcasm?
Whatever gave you the idea I was being sarcastic?
Mr Rogers, your ‘argument’ is as leaky as Chris Matthews’ appendage that sent a warm trickle down his leg.
When Rush went all-in for Cruz, and became #NeverTrump, I cancelled my 24/7 membership. I think many others did also. JMO.
Guess it depends on how one would read your comment... :)
Maybe he peaks sometime near the end of his second term, with enough umph to get his Republican successor elected for a ‘Trump Third Term!’
Get lost Limbaugh! Jeb Bush gave her a ‘Liberty Award’.
Trump was not a politician in 2012. And he was after the Old Post Office Pavilion on the Mall so he had to ‘win’ which is what he does, and that included schmoozing Pelosi.
Now at age 69, he wants to win for Americans unlike your lying Romney stooge Cruz who would lose to Hillary because he’s so unlikable.
Now, he refuses to say the name of Ryan's primary opponent. He is under orders and he's selling out his audience.
Oxy is my opinion.
