Rush: 'Shocking' reason to be cited when Hillary loses
WND ^ | 05/23/2016 | Joe Kovacs

Posted on 05/23/2016 2:58:54 PM PDT by detective

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has received more than $21 million in just two years for giving speeches to large banks and corporations, and that could be the key factor in her potential political plunge, according to talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh.

“I think this is shocking,” Limbaugh declared on his Monday broadcast, citing a New York Post report on Sunday documenting the massive amount of money the former secretary of state raked in.

“I’m telling you, folks: $21 million over two years for 20 or 25 minutes? There’s nothing that screeches ‘out of touch’ more than that,” he said.

“I don’t think you’re gonna see this story in the New York Times or the Washington Post. I don’t think any of the nightly newscasts are gonna make a big deal of it. It’s gonna be the kind of thing that, if she loses, in their postmortems they’re gonna go back to and say, ‘You know what? We missed this when this happened, but the exit polling will show it, that people thought she was inexorably tied to corporate America.'”

Hillary Clinton is a threat to the future of America. Her only support is among the corrupt Washington establishment.

She will lose. Trump will win.

Note that Hillary has been traversing the country, speaking to people — for free — and has failed to attract notable crowds.

Nobody was paying Hillary for her words. She’s not interesting. They were buying influence in the government. It is known.

I really, REALLY hope the Dems just whip around and HAND it to Coronated Hillary.

I think Trump would beat Bernie, but I think he would just MOP THE FLOOR with Hitlery.

Really hope she squeeks through..!

I hope Rush is onto something here! I had to tune him out a few months ago, along with Mark Levin. It would make a huge difference if most of the talk radio community united in urging their listeners to do everything possible to elect Mr. Trump this November.
Levin is probably a hopeless cause (he has personal reasons).
Beck, too, is a long shot. And, Charlie Sykes (in Wisconsin) actually received a handwritten note from Mr. Trump that still failed to persuade him to change his mind.
Right now, the strongest voices belong to Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham.

No, she’s not interesting at all,...she’s repulsive.

...which is going to sound moronic as the explanation why she lost to a businessman.

No, what was shocking was when Limbaugh said "what difference, at this point, does it make" when asked by a caller if he would finally endorse Donald Trump for President now that he's the only remaining Republican candidate.

Nope! She’ll also get the support of people who love war more than they love America. All the Kool-Aid drinkers who still think it was a good idea to invade Iraq, to still be in Afghanistan, to topple Qadafi, to destabilize Syria, and to antagonize Russia will find that Clinton - not Trump - is the candidate who will fulfill their desires.

With Clinton as its nominee, the Democratic Party reclaims its historical role as the War Party.

Has anyone checked to see if she actually gave all these ‘Speeches’?

One of many reasons Hillary will not be the nominee coming out of the democratic convention in July.

Trump
Bernie
Hillary

I will take the seemingly forthright and honest Socialist, oxymoronic as that sounds, over the liar and thief. Plus I think With Bernie and a at least a partial GOP Congress we can get down to a nice solid gridlock. Nothing for at least 4 years.

Oh, I do very much. That wasn't sarcasm, that was evasion. Sure, it was cute to use Clinton's words, but it was clear that Limbaugh didn't want to say it.
