Albert Einstein said that the ‘definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.’ There exists a secondary definition, and it’s just two words; ‘Rush Limbaugh.’
Rush Limbaugh has long advocated the overthrow of the American government and replacing it with a fascist regime. Is it any surprise that he is blaming Democrats for the violence at Donald Trump’s rallies?
Clip after clip shows Trump encouraging violence at his rallies, but Limbaugh said: “I think it’s unfortunate there are people trying to blame Trump for this.” Really?
If we are even slightly honest, Trump invites the type of supporters who are angry and violent. I was not surprised when white supremacists offered their support, he is ‘their type of candidate.’
Of course Rush followed standard GOP practices and blamed President Obama for the violence, not those gentle and humble Trump supporters. He played a radio clip when the President spoke at a DNC fundraiser in Dallas: “And what’s been happening in our politics lately, it’s not an accident. For years we’ve been told we should be angry about America and that the economy’s a disaster and that we’re weak and that compromise is weakness, and that you can ignore science and you can ignore facts and say whatever you want about the president and feed suspicion about immigrants and Muslims and poor people and people who aren’t like us.”
If you can find any part of that statement which encourages physical violence, you have a better imagination than I do.
Trump aligns himself with Limbaugh; insane people love others who join their way of life.
Recently Trump accused Bernie Sanders of sending supporters to disrupt his rallies; I’m not making this up.
If you think watching Trump make a fool of himself and our nation is entertaining, just wait for the convention in July. If the NRA would only handout loaded weapons to everyone, this could be the greatest and most entertaining Republican Convention in history.
Sadly, I’m sure that they will have metal detectors at the door; and watch the NRA ignore this fact. Hypocrites one and all.
