Rush Limbaugh says that Donald Trump “is gonna win, beat Hillary [Clinton] badly… it could be landslide proportions.”

During Wednesday’s “The Rush Limbaugh Show,” the day after Trump all but clinched the Republican nomination, Limbaugh said, “The only reason Hillary Clinton’s gonna win [the Democratic nomination] is because the Democrats have rigged that system for her according to their rules, where she’s gonna get all the delegates or however many she needs to win this no matter what the election returns in every Democrat primary are.  Now, the Democrats are making the same mistake here that some may have made in the Cruz campaign.”

The Democrats “think that Hillary can go ahead and lose these states, lose every state. She’s losing more than she wins.  If you follow the news, it’s clear Bernie Sanders is winning (it seems like) every primary the past month.  And accompanying every Bernie Sanders victory story is the fact that he won nothing, that Hillary gets the delegates.  So there’s just as many — or proportionally just as many — agitated Democrats.  You add up people supporting Bernie Sanders to people supporting Donald Trump, and the people that supported [crscore]Ted Cruz[/crscore]. You add up those voters — and if they all vote, too, Hillary Clinton doesn’t have a prayer.”

“I don’t care about the Electoral College. I don’t care about anything else. Just like in terms of the people that are fed up with Washington and the establishment, as we sit here today, she is the lone candidate representing what obviously so many Americans, Republicans and Democrats for their own reasons right now happen to despise,” Limbaugh argued. Clinton is “losing the vote in every state, and yet the Democrats expect her to triumph.  Where is her momentum?”

“How in the world does Hillary go from losing after losing after losing to becoming a triumphant victor at the Democrat convention when she didn’t win diddly-squat except superdelegates in the Democrat Party,” Limbaugh asked rhetorically.

“They haven’t figured out the media wants Trump in the White House because it’s gonna be the most fun four years they’ve ever had.  It’ll be fun. They’ll try to take Trump out. They’ll be able to party with Trump! They’ll go to the White House. They’ll be able to do everything they do as media; they’ll be able to trying to destroy him. He’ll expect it. He’ll toy with ’em. They’ll get to cover him, go wherever he goes. It’s gonna be unexpected, unpredictable, ratings boosts and all kinds of stuff,” Limbaugh said. “Make no mistake: In the Drive-Bys, this is universal.  There’s nothing exciting about Hillary Clinton.”

Thus “my instinctive feeling right now is that Trump is gonna win, beat Hillary badly, that it could be landslide proportions,” Limbaugh said.
