RUSH LIMBAUGH SPARKS OUTRAGE After Suggesting Trump is Pandering for KKK Vote
Gateway Pundit ^ | 2-29-16 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 02/29/2016 12:50:56 PM PST by dlt

On Sunday Donald Trump went on CNN and was asked once again about David Duke’s endorsement. Trump told Jake Tapper he didn’t know anything about David Duke or white supremacy.

This sent shock waves across the liberal media and GOP establishment circles.

I’m going to believe his campaign? That it was an earpiece issue?

Oh, BTW - I just had a discussion about this very thing on Saturday with my liberal Democrat next-door neighbor, who has an earpiece, and has earpiece issues.

He went into great depth about what happens.

We're pals even though I'm a heavy-duty conservative, because, of course - I'm a RELIABLE next-door neighbor. :)

Bottom line is that Trump is constitutional incapable of saying bad things about anyone who says good things about him. His ego just won’t allow it. In his mind anybody who praises him has to be a pretty smart guy to appreciate him,

Putin, Dukes, whomever.

Those of you who are pointing out Trump always denounced Duke from long ago are making his point.

Some of the Cruz people are so drunk on hatred of Trump that their minds refuse to work, Williams.

All that matters is the thought of the sharp stabbing instrument they can use on Trump, again and again and again and again...

There is no thought of where it came from, or how it got into their hands.

Just the stabbing, and the rage.

Didn’t Mr. Trump say that his earpiece was not working properly and he did not clearly hear the question in the first place? Hasn’t he disavowed David Duke several times since then?

Little over a month, but you are 100% correct.

He left the mantle of objective observer and went full retard.

Really????

This is what I posted a few hours ago. I have been doing this for some time. I am not about to go over all that.

I have been monitoring the Limbaugh show.

He spent the first hour explaining the New York Times article.

He did not give a convincing explanation of why he praised Rubio as a Ronald Reagan “full throated” conservative; says he was irritated about people ragging Rubio.

The he played clips of Cruz on a Sunday morning show, wherein Cruz claims Trump wanted to compromise religious freedoms and the second amendment. Rush’s silence reflects his assent/collusion.

He also played a clip of Cruz accusing Trump of having on his tax returns evidence that he has been dealing with the mob. Rush then avoided commenting on the stupidity of that line by immediately segueing into a protest over the fact that Chuck did not protest when Reid slandered Romney over his tax returns, as he did Cruz speculating about Trump

Then Rush wonders repeatedly about the KKK flap that occurred Sunday, and replays it again and again and comments again and again and wonders why. And cleanses himself with the observation, with a chuckle, that he is going to hear from Trump supporters.

Rush then reminds the audience that he does not endorse candidates.

Then Rush says that Cruz is “the singular opponent to the establishment” STILL NEGLECTING TO MENTION that Cruz went to bat for the establishment, full-throated, when he lobbied for and fought Senator Sessions over TPA and helped vote it in.

He also voted with the establishment over the Corker bill

Now, Rush is taking up for Rubio over the little amnesty pimp’s comment on Trump’s hands.

Rush brags on his audience, but it is safe to assume that he thinks his audience is stupid.

After tomorrow, it is nice to think that I won’t have to put up with Rush Limbaugh.

I’ve been a listener since 1988 and I heard him say it. He’s lost it. Period.

"This is respectfully typical of what Rush Limbaugh calls the Drive-By Media. They make up some sort of, quote, unquote, controversy about something that isn't really a controversy at all and then drive off. . . . Jeffery Lord

Of course Jeffery Lord is GOPe . . . NOT

Get a grip folks . . . way too many here on FR that has lost it. But then no surprise, reading and thinking skill no longer seem to exist here.

everyone knows that David Duke is a DEMOCRAT

"In December 1988, Duke changed his political affiliation from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party." - Wikipedia

He was the Republican candidate in the famous 1991 Louisiana runoff election for governor, when people said: "Vote for the crook" (meaning his opponent, Edwin Edwards).

He ran as a Republican in various other elections in the 90's.

In the context of a segment in which various theories are offered in order to explain an inexplicable failure to denounce the KKK endorsement, and which concludes with Limbaugh saying he has no idea why Trump would fail to do that, as well as a clear statement that Trump had done so in the past.

As for "absolute full insinuation" it's nonsense. You either say a thing, or you don't. A Trumpcrazed inference isn't the same thing as an insinuatIon.

That's right. Limbaugh invented the derisive term "GOP-e" but he -- and I -- are now a part of it. Riiiiiiiiigggggghhhhhhhttttt.

There really is no one you Trumpanzees will not attack in the name of your savior. [You've even tried to falsify the history of Ronald Reagan's politics to make your Messiah look palatable.]

Here's a prediction: when you finally understand that TheDonald's® "positions" were no more core beliefs than any of his previous positions, when it dawns in the furthest, darkest reaches of your brain that he considers EVERYTHING -- including what you currently think are his positions on Immigration and Trade -- as completely negotiable and subject to the whims of the moment, I predict you still will not be able to detach yourself from your blasphemous worship of this disgusting poseur, and will, all evidence to the contrary notwithstanding, convince yourself that what TheDonald® now believes is what you really believed all along. And what HE really believed all along as well.

And then, the next day, He'll change His mind again. And so will you. Right on cue.

So, you listen to the Voices from the RayDeeO box.

What did the Voices tell you today?

"Don't read the transcript, refreshed! Trust us!" :)

"There really is no one you Trumpanzees will not attack in the name of your savior."

Would you consider Jim Robinson one of your Trumpanzees?

Personally, I have one savior and it ain't a politician.

But you will "save" whomever is paying best.

Then you need to hear it

You can hear it

You can read it

Yet some some of you refuse to believe he said it

Or he didn’t really mean it

I’m a yearly subscriber

I went and listened to the podcast

He said it

Sorry to break it to you

Now like the private Schumer meeting he’ll spend all day tomorrow explaining its not a big deal

I don’t think Rush is a liberal but I’m convinced he’s not the anti GOPe he likes to pretend he is

It doesn't matter. If the drone of the Media commissars as they ask the same question, day after day after day after day after day after day after day, causes the target to drowse for a second and hesitate in the 378th denial, it's the same as if he just bought a sheet and lit a cross on Oprah's lawn. :)
