Limbaugh Starts Show by Saying He Really Doesn’t Want to Opine on Lewandowski
After a brief comment yesterday, Rush Limbaugh started his radio show today by saying he really doesn’t want to share his opinion on the Corey Lewandowski–Michelle Fields fracas. Yes, you read that correctly. Rush Limbaugh does not want to insert himself into a highly politicized and controversial story.
Limbaugh reviewed the controversy over the video showing Lewandowski grabbing Fields before saying, “I have decided that going forward, I cannot share with you my opinion on this story… No matter what I say, I am convinced people cannot listen anymore.”
Yes, Limbaugh seems to be frustrated at how much he’s gotten criticized by anti-Donald Trump conservatives for seemingly carrying water for him instead of standing firm on conservative principles––something Limbaugh has admitted is not what’s fueling Trump’s campaign.
Limbaugh’s already gotten some blowback on this from people already critical of him. Per Leon Wolf at RedState:
Rush Limbaugh’s job is to be correctly and properly understood when it comes to conservative politics. He’s been doing it for about 3 decades now with no apparent problem in making himself understood. And I think he’s making himself perfectly well understood during this primary season as well. He just doesn’t like the fact that for the first time in his history, a significant portion of his audience is pushing back, and so he’s trying to walk the line and pretend that he doesn’t think what he clearly does think.
