Limbaugh Laughs Off Idea He Wants Hillary in 2016 So He Can Make More Money

Rush Limbaugh is no fan of Hillary Clinton, so he obviously found it amusing to hear a supposedly Republican C-SPAN caller say he wants a Clinton victory in 2016 so he and his sponsors get more money. Limbaugh dismissed this “lunacy” while explaining exactly why he is no way wants Clinton in the White House in any way, shape, or fashion.

The accusation, as it’s always gone, is that Limbaugh wants Democrats to win so that he has someone in power he can fan the flames of outrage against, thereby increasing his numbers and filling his wallet. Limbaugh played the audio of the C-SPAN caller and just laughed, calling him an “average, low information idiot” spouting sheer “lunacy.”

As for Clinton’s qualifications for office, Limbaugh went down a list calling Clinton’s competence into question: “Benghazi, Hillarycare, the bimbo eruptions?” He charged that Clinton simply feels she’s owed the presidency after years in both Obama’s and her husband’s administrations.
