Trump not allowed to have presidential library? Rush Limbaugh goes on offense  By Bob Unruh  Published February 2, 2021

'It would become the biggest tourist attraction in the country'

Talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh on Tuesday explained why establishment Democrats and Republicans are so terrified of President Trump.

It's gotten so bad that a Washington Post columnist even urged Congress to deprive him of a presidential library.

But the Washington "swamp" has to discredit him because they fear what he represents: "an uprising of the people of this country against Washington, against the establishment," Limbaugh told his listeners.

The movement has been building since Ross Perot's run for president in 1992, he said.

Oh, yeah, it predated Trump. The Tea Party was part of this. Trump was just the first guy to come along and actually weaponize it, in a political sense," he explained. "But the Trump movement existed before there was Trump, and then he built it and grew it to the point of 75, 74 million voters."

In fact, there are indications that Trump's popularity has been growing since he left office.

Limbaugh said the "same cabal" that pushed the debunked Russia-collusion claims against Trump are pushing the second impeachment.

And they are "doing everything they can," because, he said, they fear him and what might happen if he were to return to politics.
