Rush Limbaugh: 'Disband the Republican Party

Blasting the Republican-led Congress over a $1.1 trillion omnibus bill that, among other things, fully funds Planned Parenthood and has the White House declaring victory yet again on fiscal fronts, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh said Thursday that the GOP should be disbanded.

"There is no Republican Party!" Limbaugh said. "You know, we don't even need a Republican Party if they're gonna do this. You know, just elect Democrats, disband the Republican Party, and let the Democrats run it, because that's what's happening anyway."

Limbaugh recounted how American voters "showed up in record numbers" and "defeated Democrats down the ballot" in order to get Republicans to stop runaway spending and President Barack Obama's agenda.

"And now the Republicans have the largest number of seats in the House they've had in Congress since the Civil War," he said. "And it hasn't made any difference at all. It is as though Nancy Pelosi is still running the House and Harry Reid is still running the Senate. 'Betrayed' is not even the word here. What has happened here is worse than betrayal. Betrayal is pretty bad, but it's worse than that."

"This was out-and-out, in-our-face lying, from the campaigns to individual statements made about the philosophical approach Republicans had to all this spending," Limbaugh said, adding that it has, in part, led to the rise of leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

"If Donald Trump didn't exist and if the Republican Party actually does want to win someday, they'd have to invent him," Limbaugh said. "It's just mind-boggling when you figure out everything that has been granted Obama. All the money, the tax increases, the Cadillac plans in Obamacare. All kinds of punitive things in Obamacare, delayed yet again so that people will not be made aware of the pain and suffering Obamacare's gonna cause."
