Limbaugh: Dems, media thought they won on Clinton emails

Democrats and the press got upset about Donald Trump's comments about Russia and Hillary Clinton's emails because they were convinced they had already won on this issue, according to radio host Rush Limbaugh.

"Trump [is] naturally comedic, sarcastic, has [a] natural inclination to use parody to make a point … He just happens to come out, 'You know what? The Russians hacked the DNC server. Maybe the Russians know what happened to Hillary's emails,'" Limbaugh said on his Thursday radio program.

"What did that mean? Trump was signaling he knows there's a cover up going on. He knows there's potentially damaging stuff still out there. He knows no one is making an effort to find it. Yet the Democrats wanted to blame the Russians," Limbaugh said. "So why not, if the Russians are involved, why not ask them for assistance on this?"
