El Presidente Trumpo loved the appearance of Rush Limbaugh on Fox News so much that he quoted from it on his twitter:
“These guys, the investigators, ought to be in jail. What they have done, working with the Obama intelligence agencies, is simply unprecedented. This is one of the greatest political hoaxes ever perpetrated on the people of this Country, and Mueller is a coverup.” Rush Limbaugh

It’s a good interview, Chris Wallace makes Limbaugh answer many tough questions, which makes for more interesting television, I think, than just hearing what you believe over and over. That’s what church is for.
Here’s the whole interview:
Here’s Rush explaining, kinda, why Obama overreached in the executive but Trump isn’t:

Wallace is getting panned for asking tough questions, but I think they were fair, and frankly, I think Rush is best when he is pushed on issues, not just when he can go on uncontested. That said, there were a lot of straw man fallacies flying around in this interview.
