Heh. Rush Limbaugh having sad on about CPAC Russian flags.

Limbaugh is on his high horse blaming the "drive by media" for coordinating with the pranksters and reporting fake news on the incident.

It feels like he's not so much disgusted by this as he is unhappy they didn't do it first. I think I'd be more dismayed that these smiling happy people didn't think twice about picking up and waiving a flag emblazoned with Trump on it. Forget America it's all about the Trump cult.

The obviously false notion that this was in any way a so-called "prank" is just ludicrous! Anyone who believes it was a prank is just a useful tool of a deluded sucker. This was 100% planned and sanctioned by CPAC in close coordination with President Trump.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

I'm not sure how well known they are, but if this was some inception level trickery then they would be working with CPAC. I'm not sure about that, though.

Either way, it's kinda funny to think that these people had no idea that they were waving a Russian flag. Either they knew it and they are cool with Russian & Trump connection, or they are really really really stupid. Neither of which looks good for them.

Alex Jones will surely say so soon.

(Yeah, it was a prank pulled on some remarkably stupid people. That don't mean I can't give the CPAC folks some more shit in line with my estimation of their near boundless stupidity.)
