Charlamagne Tha God is upset he even bothered to have a conversation with Rush Limbaugh.
The Breakfast Club host appeared as a guest on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on Wednesday (June 3) and discussed his recent interview with the political pundit. To him, the talk served no purpose as he feels he came out it with nothing.
“What really bothered me about that conversation is after I left that conversation I felt like it wasn’t productive,” Charlamagne said. “I have no problem talking with people from the other side, I just have to feel that that’s really your truth. I don’t know if I got that from Rush. It felt more like a performance.”
In just a small sample their dialogue, Limbaugh claimed he doesn’t believe white privilege exists. Charlamagne refused to accept his guest was being genuine.
“At first, I said, ‘You’re being delusional right now,’” he told Colbert. “It didn’t feel productive. It felt like a waste my time.”
