Trump asked Rush Limbaugh to hold off on cancer treatment to get his Presidential Medal of Freedom during the State of the Union

On Monday, he announced he was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer and expected to receive treatment the following day during the address.

Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh said President Donald Trump asked him to postpone his"serious" cancer treatment so he could attend the president's State of the Union address.

The political commentator said on his radio show he was going to start his treatment Tuesday evening until he received a call from the president saying to show up in Washington as his personal guest at the SOTU. "'Look, your health comes first; there's no question,'" Trump said, citing the transcript of Limbaugh's show."'But can't they just do half of what they're gonna do and then send you down here? Believe me, you don't want to miss this. It's gonna be great. It's gonna be great. You don't want to miss this.'"
