RUSH LIMBAUGH (HOST): Can you believe this? So Trump says that what he's facing is a modern-day lynching. It's what Clarence Thomas -- and all of Washington's now going batty. Just as predictable as everything else, in this phony, totally scandalous attempt to say that Donald Trump is unfit for the office of the presidency. 

I just saw some babe on Fox, you know, they got Bret Baier, it's the Outnumbered show. Bret Baier is on there talking about his book, we had him on here yesterday. And they're talking about this lynching business. Oh my God, Trump, you see, he's comparing himself to African Americans. No he's not. If you look at the definition of lynching, it doesn't have anything to do with African Americans. Which I resent that I even have to go to the dictionary doing this program.
