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.

“...Rush laid their plans out in the open so everyone could see them ...”
He taught me a lot.
I’ve had the good fortune to have a radio at my desk since 1997-98, when I first heard him.
Opened my eyes to what was going on, for sure.
On another thread, I read a comment from a FR poster that said a reporter at the luncheon, had broken the “off the record code/agreement” and leaked this inf. to the aforementioned CNN (spit) reporter. If true, hopefully... the WH will bar the dishonorable leaker from all future briefings.
“..Taught us to fight. ...”
And to NEVER back down.
And rest assured, we will not. No matter what.
What I really admire about Rush is his sense of humor.
He was the first to really stick it to the left with humor.
They can’t stand being laughed at and he is really good at it.

Well deserved! And as a bonus, it will be making millions of liberal heads explode.
I hope Rush beats this devil and can flaunt the award for many years to come.
Cool. And liberal heads will explode in 3...2...1.....
And liberal heads explode like popcorn.
During the SOTU speech?? Or more likely before or after.
CNN was refused an invitation. Thus they said they weren’t bound by the off the record.
So this was their get even, I suppose.
Yeah, I caught that excuse. The leaker though, was careless or worse- complicit.
Rush was an alternative voice when there was no other alternative voices.
and from a death grip by the International Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of North America (AFL-CIO).
Thank You Maha Rushie - El Rushbo!
A grateful ditto-head!
My favorite bumper sticker-
Rush Is Right Even On Drugs- LOL!
Get well wise owl, get well soon!

CNN is callingn an exclusive on this news as it came from an “off the record” press luncheon by Trump. CNN says since it was not invited (Acosta, Tapper and Wolf) then they can blast it. Real low class gutter scum. No standards, morals, honor, etc.
It was an off the record luncheon with the press. CNN breached the security and felt liberated to blast it since they were not invited. Scum
It was “off the record”. CNN found out (leak) and then blasted it since they did not feel bound by off the record. Real bush league.
That would be great!
Third’ed....
Since CNN reported this “off the record” (there is No Such Courtesy for President Trump) comment is now being reported by everyone. Including Fox News and Fox Business News.
