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?”
“The reason it made everybody mad is, it illustrated we’re not through with this. Hillary and her emails and her server, that is not a closed subject with us. But with them, it is. [For] Democrats, Hillary, the media, it’s over, and they think they won. They think that once again, a Clinton has gotten away with it. And Trump comes along and simply reminds them, ‘No, you may think that, but we’re not through with this.’ And that’s why they’re offended,” he added.

“In their world, there’s nothing to see here. Hillary got away with it. It’s over … it’s time for you people [and] Trump to eat it. We won. We beat it back. Hillary’s going to be the nominee,” Limbaugh explained. “Trump’s little comment distorts their reality.”
Trump on Wednesday suggested that if Russians had in fact hacked the Democratic Party, they should also try to find and release 33,000 emails Clinton deleted from her homebrew server. Democrats have responded with outrage, and suggested that Trump was inviting Russia to hack U.S. computer systems.
Limbaugh added that it was a testament to Trump’s talent that he had been able to make the issue explode in the media. “Trump … may not even be aware of his talent. There are some people who have natural abilities who don’t think about what they do, they just do it. You try to get them to explain it, and they can’t.”
