On Friday, a caller on Rush Limbaugh’s radio show couldn’t hold back tears as confessed his allegiance to Donald Trump, telling the conservative radio host that he was willing to “die” for the president.

“I want to hearken back to your statement about Georgia, and about the Trump voters,” the caller told Limbaugh. “They should be afraid — very afraid. Trump and you are all we have left, Rush. We spent our lives voting for these people because they’re not them,” he said, seemingly referring to Republicans and Democrats.

The caller complained that the Republican-controlled state refused to do an audit of the vote. “They just basically told every Georgian that they don’t care,” he lamented.

“No one stands for us, Rush, only you and Donald Trump! God forbid. What do we have left? I love my president. I’m not a revolutionary, Rush, but I would die for my president. This man has given more to this country than anybody, and he has no need to. None! He’s a billionaire. He doesn’t need this,” the caller continued.

“That’s exactly right,” Limbaugh agreed.

President Trump and Limbaugh are known to hold each other in high esteem. In February of this year, Trump gave Limbaugh the Presidential Medal of Freedom and praised him for “all that you have done for our nation.”

The New York Times reports that Limbaugh, a polarizing figure, has insisted it was unfair to blame Americans for slavery, he blamed gay marriage for the decline of Christianity, and attempted to slut-shame a woman seeking health coverage for contraception.

Last month, Limbaugh interviewed Trump on his radio program, and for 120 minutes the two men lambasted their shared political foes, warned of an economic apocalypse, and eschewed how unfair liberal media is to them and all conservatives.

They also congratulated each other for being so awesome.
