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.”

Rush joined the #Nevertrumpsters?
Jeb hung a damned “Liberty Medal” around Hillary’s neck on the eve of the first anniversary of Benghazi. I have seen W and poppy Bush hanging out with Clinton like old chums. Rush had flamer Elton John sing at his wedding.
And he dares act like Trump is a hypocrite?
F em all.
Why would they be "livid"?Mr. Limbaugh said many conservatives in the “Never Trump” camp would be “livid” at his experiment’s results because, “they don’t understand even now the depth of the bond that exists [between Mr. Trump and his supporters].”
Most N-T'ers have indicated they're going to VOTE for Hillary.
Nobody cares about Rush anymore.
Obsolete media, obsolete content.
Rush, Levin and Beck received money from the Cruz campaign
I knew something was up. I have been listening to Levin for years.
Well, life is full of disappointments. These people are exposed.
GO TRUMP>>>>>BEAT CANKLES.
The intellectuals (GOPe) separate themselves and think about things. They decide men belong in women's restrooms.
The practicals (us) work hard everyday trying to comply with regulations. We decide Trump can control immigration and allow job creation.
Which group does Rush belong to?
The bottom line, I didn’t hear this live on the radio. In the mid 90s, I probably would have. There was a time I couldn’t imagine the talk radio world if Rush was gone. Now I couldn’t care less and wouldn’t notice if he took the summer off.
He never breaks anything new. (except wind)
And Rush took 'amnesty' talking points buffet, along with the Foxes, from Chuck U. Schumer and Lindsey Graham secretly in 2011... Rush is as dirty as is any of these corrupt politicos. Thing I despise most is Rush abusing Ronald Reagan's memory over and around the two ineligible Cubans.
Bill is even a Member of one of Trump's Golf Clubs.
The thing is, Trump was a Private Citizen when he made those Comments and when asked about this he can just as easily say he now knows much more about them.
It's also curious that the Hillary Campaign wants to show Trump as a misogynist toward Hillary when here he is being complimentary of her. Can't have it both ways. Well, the DemoncRats can and do. Doesn't matter. He is the presumptive Republican Candidate and the mission now is to defeat the DemoncRats. You go to War with the Military you have. Time to get to it.
H-> already took the fork from the White Hut.
“Thing I despise most is Rush abusing Ronald Reagan’s memory over and around the two ineligible Cubans.”
Exactly. He’s as dirty as any of em.
Kristol is an admitted "Neocon"--the son of the ex-Trotskyite "godfather" of the Neocon Phenomenon, which is anything but Conservative.
While I am not so certain about Will, he may simply be embarrassed, having personally compromised his integrity so as not to offend the "politically correct" monitors of American journalism; and, thus, is trying desperately to shoot down the messenger. He is certainly not acting so aggressively stupid, simply out of old fashioned ignorance.
Only Trump knows what Trump really thinks about the Clintons. He’s denouncing them now. A lot of people don’t care whether he really believes what he is saying about anything. They are just hoping that he can and will do what he says he can and will do.
I think we are getting close to seeing the peak for Donald Trump.
Either after the west coast primaries or the convention or the General election.
Surly he will peak right after one of these.
There’s no reference to Limbaugh at that link.
For me, this past year has been one of full realization and enlightenment. It revealed to me I was entirely mistaken in my beliefs in Republicans and their icons and stalwarts (pundits included) who would fight the good fight for me.
I know now. Full well. These slugs have been fighting for themselves, and that includes Rush Limbaugh, Kristol, Krauthammer, Will and all the rest. None of them actually have sweat and skin in the normal tax paying citizen’s game....not a damn one of them.
I want Trump to win and then to come into DC, throw a tent over it and Roach Bomb it - totally.
When you come to a fork in the road, take it.

I still don’t understand what happened in this experiment. Article unclear.
