his listeners that Harris was out to “punish those who are rich and who are powerful to make you think she’s looking out for you.”
This mixture of terror and dismissal at those Limbaugh and his ilk deem false “victims” is standard fare for his show. Limbaugh has long asserted the idea that “victimhood” is automatically conferred by the left to women and people of color, which gives them an unearned advantage in the “culture wars” between the left and right.
And just as Limbaugh’s accusations that Sandra Fluke was asking to be “paid to have sex” by wanting health insurance to cover medicine prescribed by a doctor, Limbaugh’s accusations regarding Harris as a “mistress” who traded sex for political favors are baseless and absurd.
