Limbaugh has been hosting "The Rush Limbaugh Show" in national syndication for 31 years. He is a Republican party icon and a close ally of President Trump's.

The president recently called Limbaugh "a major star who never wavered despite the Fake News Hits he has had to endure. His voice is far bigger than theirs!"

Limbaugh said at the end of Monday's program that he plans to be off the air Tuesday and back on the air Thursday.

"My intention is to come here everyday I can and to do this program as normally and as competently and as expertly as I do each and every day, because that is the source of my greatest satisfaction," Limbaugh said.

30 years we've been subjected to his demonizing and bullying of the other side, and that's given us Fox News, two Bush terms, and Trump as a result.

I won't cheerlead his death, nor will I feel any remorse for him.

Thanks for the unsolicited testimonial, asshole. Any bets on a Medal of Honor from the other one?

that will be a good start. Until then, I'll just assume Rush is faking this for publicity.

While I like to think that the possibility of redemption extends to the point of death, it's just getting tiring seeing all of these people trash and smear people, spread pain and misery for years and decades, only to want to apologize and make amends at the last possible second, when they're on their deathbed.
