Limbaugh nails it: Trump campaign shake-up shows he’s no misogynist

I have to give credit, where credit is due, and Rush Limbaugh nailed it on his radio show Thursday. Donald Trump loves women and the shake-up within his own campaign reflects that.

On Wednesday evening, Mr. Trump’s campaign issued a statement that Rick Wiley, who they had hired in April as Mr. Trump’s national political director, was let go. Although Mr. Trump’s statement was short on details, Politico reportedMr. Wiley picked a fight with the wrong person – Karen Giorno, who ran Mr. Trump’s campaign during the Florida GOP primary.

Politico writes the story as a turf battle – one between loyalists to Corey Lewandowski, Mr. Trump’s campaign manager, and Paul Manafort, a establishment GOP operative who was brought on in late March to help professionalize the campaign.

But, as Mr. Limbaugh pointed out in his radio program, that misses the point.

What the campaign shake-up really demonstrates is how Mr. Trump stands up and promotes women – a narrative the press simply wants to ignore. For if Mr. Trump truly is the misogynist that the press wants to paint him as, he’d taken Mr. Wiley’s word over Mrs. Giorno simply because he’s a man.

But that’s not what happened.
