Rush Limbaugh says Trump plays Democrats like a Stradivarius..

Yesterday, I was lisrening to car radio while running some errands. Limbaugh was raving about how Trump was playing the Democrats. His priority was that the "libs" be very pissed off.

Whether laws were being followed and obeyed was of very little concern to him. His lips were super-glued to Trump's ass.

But the news is not that Trump is playing the Democrats. The story is that Trump continues to play Limbaugh and his supporters. It is they that are bringing down America.

“Owning the Libs” is a common refrain in the right wing world. Mostly it’s self justifying- they think they can provoke liberals into overreacting by what they say and do.

3. Trump isn't "playing the Democrats". He's playing his own base like a violin.

I mean he's got them eating up his every word. There's a subsection of his supporters that are literally convinced that he's the second coming of Jesus. And that's what scares me the most about them. They are a cult, and Trump is the cult leader.

if and when Trump loses the election and says, "I ain't leaving". They will easily kill others in the name of their God Trump. We Libtards may have to be prepared to return fire.

He doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. It's not surprising
to find OxyRush would admire him for his intelligence.

I can remember when he had his maid going out to buy Oxycontin from an illicit dealer somewhere in West Palm Beach, or Lake Worth. It was a big deal at the time, but he didn't go to jail. Only the little people go to jail in America for this kind of thing.

Nevertheless, he's probably still popping his pills before every show which accounts for his alternative reality. I doubt if many of his listeners can afford his drug habit, so they are mindless fools who just don't get it. And probably never will.
