And then Nunberg advised Trump.

Anyway, I certainly agree that talk radio is impactful. Of course, I also think there's a lot of confirmation bias at play. People turn to the likes of Limbaugh because they share his point of view. More than anything, talk radio fires up the base and gets out the vote.

A base, by the way, that wasn't frothing over trade agreements or jobs.
