On his talk radio program Wednesday, Rush Limbaugh addressed the “tremendous amount of fallout” from a Don Lemon-hosted CNN panel discussion over the weekend that devolved into the guests mocking Trump supporters as illiterate, uneducated “rubes,” while the host laughed hysterically.
Along with resulting in enough pressure that Lemon felt compelled to defend himself, insisting he doesn’t believe in “belittling people” — a response that has earned yet more blowback — the segment inspired a poignant campaign ad by the Republican National Committee (RNC). The moment has gone viral, in part, Limbaugh suggests, because it shows the public that the left-wing media elite is actually what they repeatedly portray Donald Trump to be.
