Trump says he will award Rush Limbaugh with Medal of Freedom
Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump told network anchors during a private lunch Tuesday that he will award Rush Limbaugh with the Medal of Freedom, one day after the prominent political radio host announced he has advanced lung cancer. According to a person familiar with the discussion, Trump informed anchors he will bestow Limbaugh with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in the coming months. Limbaugh has been a staunch ally of the President's for years, and dined with him at his Palm Beach golf club over the holidays. Once, during an event in the Rose Garden, Trump praised Limbaugh as someone who "can speak for three hours without a phone call." Trump wished the conservative radio talk show host a speedy recovery Monday after Limbaugh told his audience he is beginning treatment, which will require him to miss the show some days.

Long, long overdue.
Rush opened the path through the liberal wasteland, showed the Right how to fight back...
And Trump brought the Bulldozer and construction vehicles to make that path a Superhighway. And KEEP it open.
El Rushbo, you’ve got 20+Million folks sending you good Mojo, brother. Get well, be strong, and know that you are loved.
Outstanding! Very well deserved.
he deserves it for all the wonderful charity and love for our soldiers and law enforcement people. He has also led efforts for cancer and other illnesses.
Awweeeeeesome!! Please please let it be true and let him get a standing ovation!!
One man at the Resolute Desk. Other behind the Golden EIB. That’s all America needs.
People were saying that here yesterday, and today it happens.
Coincidence?
The first thing Rush will say is that Trump is actually awarding the medal to his listeners. That’s who Rush is.
I could actually say I wanted to come to America partly because of Rush. I listened to him during the Iraq War in 2003 because our stations were blatantly anti-American.
Just a year ago, I had a conversation with both a Fox Sports and Coast to Coast AM producer during breakfast at a studio sales convention here in L.A. and they told me NO ONE can beat Rush at 9 am nationally. He’s had those # 1 ratings for 30 years at that slot.
“Heard Rush WILL be there tonight as Trumps invited guest so awesome”
That will be super duper awesome.
Thanks for the good news, Sarah.

what exactly have these bastards done except piss me off?
God Bless you, El Rushbo!
God speed on your recovery! We The People - We Americans got your six as best we can.
Hello, brother laplata...
I have long suspected Trump has people reading the commentary here. When he came out with his "birther" position, it looked like he was reading Free Republic. Many times I have seen him promoting ideas i've seen here. He may even be a Lurker himself.
Bret Baier was there. CNN was not invited.
Good.
Hello NFHale…
Best regards to you, brother.
Excellent!
