Rush Limbaugh Swoons Over 'Manly, Studly' Gianforte

by Colin Kalmbacher | 10:13 pm, May 25th, 2017

In the wake of the still mind-boggling turn of events involving Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs and Republican congressional candidate Greg Gianforte, American media and political figures registered almost universal disdain for the GOPer’s conduct.

Not one to be silent when a “liberal journalist” catches a beating, Rush Limbaugh joined in to condemn the assault in an uncharacteristic display of journalistic solidarity. Except not really.

Speaking about the Bodyslam in Bozeman, Limbaugh said:

<“I must join the chorus of people condemning what happened out there. This manly, obviously studly Republican candidate in Montana took the occasion to beat up a pajama-clad journalist, a Pajama Boy journalist out there…And the manly, studly Republican simply didn’t realize that on the big stage you can’t do this kind of stuff and kicked the guy’s ass to the ground. This cannot be accepted. This must be condemned.”>

The alleged sex tourist repeated the characterization of Gianforte as “manly” and “studly” at least once more before voicing his complaints about the smugness and arrogance of Jacobs.
