it's thee only unique advantage they have and ignoring it for 30 years has been the biggest political mistake in history. all other RW media platforms are monitored and challenged, like fox and social media.
it will truly be a shame and testament to monumental incompetence by the dem and progressive orgs if we don't start seeing progress unitil after limbaugh croaks (he's still croaking on the radio today) and the rw radio monopoly that was built around him falls apart because they can't find anyone who can lie and spin for 3 hours a day with such royal sex-on-the-wrong-brain certitude.
trump knows he's going to lose the most important and secret weapon he has aand without limbaugh to make excuses for him all day, sell his lies and the next supreme court pick, attack his critics, and keep gop senators in line, he's fucked. most gop senators know it starts with limbaugh and the local state blowhards all have to follow his lead.
