Rush: People Voted for Trump Because They Thought the Country Was Over if Hillary Won

Legal Insurrection  "In a rare appearance on FOX News Sunday, Rush Limbaugh addressed a number of Trump related issues including the reasons for his loyal support, his battle with the media, and who’s obstructing him in Washington.
"Here are some details from FOX News:
Limbaugh blasts news media attacks on Trump as pointless, ‘kind of comical’
Conservative radio star Rush Limbaugh on Sunday assailed the news media, suggesting its efforts to “destroy” Republican President Trump are “comical” and dismissing stories about Russia purportedly influencing the 2016 White House race in Trump’s favor.

“The media did not make Donald Trump, and they can’t destroy him,” Limbaugh said on “Fox News Sunday.”
He suggested some major, liberal-leaning news agencies “have a formula … a blueprint for destroying Republican political officials they don’t like.”
“It’s not going to work on Trump,” Limbaugh continued. “It’s kind of comical to watch.”
To be sure, a big part of Trump’s winning campaign strategy was to argue that the liberal media was backing Democratic rival Hillary Clinton and that it failed to recognize the concerns of Trump and his supporters.
“Trump has a connection with his voters that most politicians don’t,” Limbaugh said. “And that connection .. is not anything that anybody else can break.”
He suggested Trump won because Americans had fears about the direction in which the country was going, not because Russia meddled in the race.
"The video is 12 minutes long but I recommend watching the whole thing. Rush provides analysis here as only he can."
