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.

HOORAY Chief. HOORAY Rush. Thanks.
I hope he announces that tonight.
I hope Rush is there tonight.
So well deserved. Great American. Not perfect, as none of us is. Rush is America. God Bless him.
Ping!
Which makes it even worse. How is it that a news organization that wasn’t even there for the announcement is the First to disseminate the information?
Bret Baier just said he thinks Rush will be there and awarded tonight!
That's exactly right. The left had a stranglehold on the media...but it was stealth stranglehood. They pretended to be reasonable while all the while pushing a strong leftist agenda. Rush laid their plans out in the open so everyone could see them if they wanted to. President Trump has now did what many thought was impossible...forced the leftist media completely out into the daylight.
MAGA Dittos!
Bravo, Mr. President and, of course, Rush.
Rush is the real John Conner. ..Terminator movie
Taught us to fight. ...

Rush is like a big brother that I spend every day with. The news was a punch in the gut and the most upset I’ve ever been about the sickness of someone who doesn’t know me.
And you as well!!!
I strongly second that emotion!!!
If anyone can beat it, he can, and will.
