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 no Trumpie but this is the most inane narrative ever.

Okay, I’ll listen. When did Rush say anything of the sort? It would be in order to listen to the podcast before you over-commit yourself.

Except that is not what he said. Truth should be our ultimate goal here. The writer of this article took Rush out of context. I was listening this afternoon while I did my work.

Maybe RUSH should ask Trump instead of “ASSUMING” anything.

I read the transcript. Was Rush joking and doing (bad) satire? He can’t mean this.

BYE BYE LIMBAUGH

Thank you for show us your true Establishment Colors!

I should have know better after your LOVE AFFAIR with Karl Rove and W. Bush.

Oh and how can I forget it was you that suggested electing a Republican congress in both houses would stop Obama and Obamacare. Yeah John Boehner, Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell are real mavericks against Obama.....(sarcasm off)

I didn’t hear Rush today but I assume this is another lying headline. It’s the newest rage in media, write a completely false headline and make the reader dig deep into the story for the truth.

I think Rush knows that these were MSM traps set for Trump, just like when Hugh Hewitt tried to play the name game gotcha with Trump.

The case of Duke was an unsolicited endorsement by Duke that fit nicely into the GOPe Mississippi Strategy to make Trump into a racist. Trump perhaps could have reacted to Todd's setup more deftly, but it was a racist trap that Trump was probably being wary of.

The Mussolini quote was pure liberal MSM entrapment. The website Gawker admitted to planting the quote to fool Trump into retweeting it. Trump did. Would Trump on his own begin quoting Mussolini to win voters?

You decide. I think Limbaugh decided, and chose to let it slide.

The whole “Trump and the KKK” narrative is just empty nonsense.

I listened live this morning & Rush did say that maybe Trump dodged the question because he didn’t want to alienate KKK voters in the south. He was really getting down on Trump today. Rush can go take a flying leap.

I also listened to Rush today, and I did get the drift from Rush that Trump was trying to “hedge” support from the KKK, by sorta, kinda, accepting KKK support while still having credible deniability. It made me ill.

One must disavow the likes of the KKK.

Is Bernie disavowing the endorsement of the Communist party
USA.?
