RUSH: How about this media tweak? In the spirit of Operation Chaos, I\u2019d just like to remind all of you Donald Trump fans out there, the media\u2019s out to destroy him. Well, it\u2019s interesting. Some in the media are out to destroy, but Savannah Guthrie at NBC loves him. We got audio sound bites to show you all this. <\/p>\n

George Stephanopoulos told Diane Sawyer that Trump said that he would go take the Iraqi oil fields by force. We go in there. We liberate Iraq. They\u2019ve got a large supply of oil. Why should we not have it? To the victor goes the spoils. We should claim the Iraqi oil fields. We\u2019ve spent a lot of money going in there. We\u2019ve lost some lives, what the hell? So Stephanopoulos told Diane Sawyer Trump said this and Diane, (imitating Sawyer) “Really? He said that? By force?” (laughing) After Stephanopoulos\u2019 report on Trump suggesting that we go in there and just take the Iraqi oil fields, we are owed this, why should anybody else bid on them? Why should we give that oil to anybody else, given our circumstances? So Stephanopoulos is explaining all this to Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America and she just can\u2019t believe it.<\/p>\n

SAWYER: So he\u2019s going to do this by force?<\/p>\n

STEPHANOPOULOS: Well, that\u2019s what he says. That would of course take thousands and thousands of US troops for many, many years.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (laughing) (imitating Sawyer) “He\u2019s going to do this by force? Look, recycling.” I\u2019ll betcha Trump could be convinced to recycle garbage while taking the Iraqi oil fields by force. Anyway, where was I? Where was I? Oh. Media tweak. Media tweak in the spirit of Operation Chaos. I\u2019d just like to remind all of you Trump fans out there that if you really want a macho candidate with a big mouth, big hair, massive cojones, you could always support Hillary. You don\u2019t have to go Trump.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Charles Krauthammer yesterday (I think also Friday) was on a local Washington public affairs show — Inside Washington, Outside Washington, I Am Washington, whatever the name of the show is — and he said that Trump is the equivalent of Al Sharpton in the Republican Party. He said that again last night as a member of the Fox All Stars on the six o\u2019clock show with Bret Baier, Special Report with Bret Baier. Trump is the Republican version of Al Sharpton. Trump\u2019s known to be many things, but that seems to be going a bit far. I mean, Krauthammer once said, don\u2019t forget, that Obama was eloquent — uh, elegant! Elegant! <\/p>\n

Well, he\u2019s also incompetent. Trump pays his taxes, too, doesn\u2019t he? I don\u2019t think the IRS is chasing Trump around like he is Sharpton. Here, by the way, is Trump\u2019s quote on Iraqi oil to Stephanopoulos. He says, “George, let me explain something to you.” We\u2019ve probably got it here in the sound bite roster. I\u2019ll play it when we get to all this stuff later. He says, “Let me explain something to you, George. We go into Iraq, we have spent thus far one and a half trillion dollars. We coulda rebuilt half the United States for that. One and a half trillion dollars, and we\u2019re gonna then leave. So in the old days, when you had a war, to the victor belonged the spoils.<\/p>\n

“You go in, you win the war, and you take it. So Stephanopoulos told that to Diane Sawyer, and she was.. (snorts) She was aghast. Appalled. “By force?” Yeah. You know, in historical perspective, of course, Trump is right, although that hasn\u2019t really been us. We have liberated people. We don\u2019t do a lot of conquering out there. And of course one of the problems that we have, I think the United States as now the lone superpower in the world (but we\u2019re not long for that, the longer Obama stays in the Oval Office) is we handcuff ourselves in the interests of being “fair.” As the lone superpower we walk around with a perpetual state of guilt, and since we\u2019re the lone superpower — and theoretically the richest nation on earth — we go and we save the Iraqis. <\/p>\n

We save their oil, we save them, but we don\u2019t keep the oil. We\u2019ve got enough. We are the big, bad, mighty United States. The oil, let\u2019s leave it to the lesser peoples of the world — because, of course, we have only achieved what we have and own what we have because we\u2019ve stolen it from people in the first place. So I think we handcuff ourselves in this manner. In fact in the case of Iraq and its oil, we went out of our way… This was the Bush people that did this. We went out of our way to open up bidding to everybody but us. This, you know, you because you want to show magnanimity and you don\u2019t want to be a bully, even though that\u2019s what we\u2019re accused of being. <\/p>\n

This bothers me. It bothers me that we have to run around the world and have this attitude about ourselves. Why do we have to feel guilty? What do we have to feel guilty about? What did we ever do other than liberate, elevate and help out? We\u2019ve got nothing, as far as I\u2019m concerned, to feel guilty about as a country. That\u2019s why it bothers so many of us when our president runs around the first year he\u2019s elected and starts apologizing for us. So we handcuff ourselves. We punish ourselves. We make things more difficult for ourselves. But we need not do it. We do it because this is the characteristic of a superpower, and we go out of our way to prove that our critics are wrong. <\/p>\n

But, as I say, we\u2019re not conquerors. After World War II, we didn\u2019t claim we owned it. We didn\u2019t say, “Okay, Germany, our ours.” We didn\u2019t say, “France, you\u2019re ours.” We didn\u2019t say any of that. What did we do? Marshall Plan! We gave them untold amounts of money and let them rebuild. That\u2019s just who we are. “To the victor go the spoils business,” that\u2019s true in the case of many countries and throughout a lot of history, but not us.<\/p>\n

RUSH: In Fargo, North Dakota, Jason, hi. It\u2019s great to have you on the EIB Network, sir, hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right on. Hey, thanks for letting me rant. I, too, demand tribute. Just like Mr. Trump, I demand tribute. You know, I want — at the port of Oman — a tanker filled every single day until about $3 trillion is paid off from Iraq. And from that point on, I\u2019m gonna turn to the rest of the Middle East and say, “Look, you call us the great Satan huh? So you\u2019re calling me the great Satan.” Well, we fly over Mecca, we drop some leaflets and say, “Guess what? If we were the great Satan, there would be none of you left. This coulda been a nuke.” So again I want tribute. Right now. Donald Trump is exactly right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You\u2019re talking about how we were talking about Trump\u2019s view on Iraqi oil is ours. We should just take it because we\u2019re the ones that went in there and liberated the country. It\u2019s ours. “To the victor goes the spoils,” is what he said. So you agree?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Amen, amen, and amen.<\/p>\n

RUSH: But it\u2019s not what we do. We haven\u2019t done that since World War I, and even limited basis after World War I. After World War II, we didn\u2019t conquer anybody. We liberate \u2019em and then give them money to rebuild themselves.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Couldn\u2019t care less. I want this one back. This is beyond ridiculous. They\u2019re not friends. They haven\u2019t treated us cool. I don\u2019t see anything but “Death to America!” Guess what? You hit \u2019em so hard they look to each other and they say, “Can we change it from ‘death to America\u2019 to ‘death to Luxembourg\u2019?” You know, it\u2019s just tiring. Take it — or, better yet, we put a tanker in Oman and fill it up every day until we say enough. And then here in North Dakota, by the way, Mr. President we have a Saudi Arabia out in the Bakken. We rock the Bakken every day. This place is amazing. Rush, I\u2019ll leave you with a funny. I\u2019ll leave you with a funny. I\u2019ll change notes here. A buddy of mine bought a Harley-Davidson, heard a great joke — I, too, am gonna have a Harley-Davidson when my four kids get out of the house — what is the only difference between a Harley-Davidson and a vacuum cleaner? <\/p>\n

RUSH: The only difference a Harley-Davidson and a vacuum cleaner? I don\u2019t know. Hillary doesn\u2019t own a vacuum cleaner.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh! Ding. Actually, “location of the dirt bag.” <\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh. (chuckles)<\/p>\n

CALLER: I take it back.<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m gonna be a dirt bag, too, when I get one. But, yeah, Trump is right. I want tribute: A tanker a day until we say enough.<\/p>\n

RUSH: We gotta go. I\u2019m outta time. Busy broadcast segment comes to a screeching halt. I appreciate the call, Jason.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here\u2019s Tracy in Pittsburgh. Tracy, welcome to the EIB Network. Great to have you here.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Mr. Limbaugh, it\u2019s an honor to speak to you, sir.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I hate to keep bringing up Donald Trump, but I have a —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Why do you hate to keep bringing up Donald Trump?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I\u2019m gonna tell you why. I think he has an ulterior motive, and what I need to know from you, your opinion, is: What\u2019s gonna happen if he does not get the Republican nomination and he decides — if he runs and he decides — to run as an independent?<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s the end of the Republican Party. If anybody does that, it\u2019s the end of the Republican Party.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, it\u2019s the end of the Republican Party, but it\u2019s also gonna put Obama right back into office. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, that\u2019s the same thing. That\u2019s what I mean. It\u2019s the same thing. It\u2019s the end of the Republican Party in this election cycle.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think he\u2019s gotta have some kind of an ulterior motive here in what he\u2019s doing. I mean, I actually —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, what do you think it is?<\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m not real sure.<\/p>\n

RUSH: See, I know Trump. I know Trump; I played golf with him. He\u2019s a fine guy. (stifling laughter)<\/p>\n

CALLER: And you don\u2019t think it has anything to do with, you know, when Obama got elected, he had a lot of good things to say about Obama? You know, he hoped he was gonna be a great president and this, that, and the other thing. I don\u2019t —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Look, I cannot let that go. Let me be honest here. “A fine guy,” that\u2019s an audience tweak. Apparently when I tell people I play golf with somebody is a fine guy that just sends people into orbit, they just lose their sanity. Now, I know Donald Trump fairly well. I\u2019ve not discussed (other than interviews on the program) his aspirations. I\u2019ve had a hard time over the course of my years knowing exactly what he is politically. I know he donates to both parties because he\u2019s primarily a real estate guy and if the Democrats run the show in Chicago, that\u2019s to whom he\u2019s gonna donate.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I can understand all that.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay. It\u2019s the same… Microsoft got in trouble for not doing this. Microsoft did not have any lobbyists, they weren\u2019t giving money to the Clinton regime, so guess what? They had a big time anti-trust suit brought against them, it\u2019s the way of the world. Trump —<\/p>\n

CALLER: But the other day when you had him on —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah?<\/p>\n

CALLER: — his reason for running for president was that he felt he could do something for the country, he could bring the country back. But, you know, Rush, you\u2019ve said yourself a million times: You could bring the country back but you would not take the pay cut. Why would Donald Trump take a pay cut and tie himself up with all the rhetoric that he\u2019s gonna go through running — and, you know, his past is gonna be brought up?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Let me answer your questions here. There is an answer to that. You may not like it, but it\u2019s an answer that is applicable to everybody who runs — and I said this yesterday. Trump just happens to differ from these other people in that he says it. He says, “The country needs me.” They all think it. There\u2019s nobody that would put themselves through any of this without that kind of an ego. They all think it. You think Clinton doesn\u2019t have a Trump ego? He\u2019s got that and more.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, I agree with you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You think Obama doesn\u2019t have it? They\u2019ve all got it. It\u2019s just Trump says it. He just happens to articulate it. Look, I remember playing golf with him maybe a year and a half ago, a short time into the regime, and we\u2019re in the same cart. We\u2019re playing at Trump International here, and he said, “Tell me the truth about Obama.” I said, “Donald, he\u2019s a bad guy.” “You think he\u2019s a bad guy?” I said, “Yeah,” and he started echoing my sentiments in his own way, but he wasn\u2019t nearly as committed in his comments that he is today, and when we finished playing a round of golf (we didn\u2019t talk about politics the whole round) I still wasn\u2019t sure what he really thought. I don\u2019t know that anybody has the magic answer to: What\u2019s he really up to?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, I have all the theories that you do. That he\u2019s a Democrat plant? I\u2019ve heard that. That he\u2019s out there just promoting The Apprentice, that he\u2019s bored with whatever else he\u2019s doing, that he\u2019s trying to stir things up, just trying to have a little fun, who knows? There\u2019s all kinds of answers to this.<\/p>\n

CALLER: If he\u2019s promoting his program that\u2019s fine with me I don\u2019t care. You know, he\u2019s out to make money, that\u2019s good. My problem is… I guess that let\u2019s get down to nuts and bolts: If he decides to run, and he does not get the Republican nomination, if he feels so — I don\u2019t know what word I want to use — passionate about this country, he would be a fool to run as an independent. Do you agree with me? <\/p>\n

RUSH: (sigh)<\/p>\n

CALLER: Because he would know that that would put Obama right back into office.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You\u2019re forgetting something.<\/p>\n

CALLER: That would destroy…<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, you\u2019re forgetting something here that\u2019s crucial.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Just using your hypothetical: If he runs as an independent, given his ego, I would think he\u2019d do it to win. Now, he may be fooling himself into thinking he can win, but he\u2019s not going to do this purposely to lose to screw somebody. If that\u2019s what\u2019s going on, then there\u2019s stuff going on that nobody\u2019s gonna ever find out. Like if he\u2019s got an animus about somebody. Like when Perot was out, we knew that Perot had it in for the Bush family, for whatever reason. <\/p>\n

CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n

RUSH: We knew that now. We don\u2019t know stuff like that about Trump and whether or not he would go independent, third party, Reform Party. We don\u2019t know that. We don\u2019t know it yet. If I were to talk to Trump again I\u2019d say, “Donald, you\u2019re saying things here that make me think you don\u2019t understand the conservative base. The conservative base does not want a 25% tariff on Chinese goods. Somebody has told you that the conservative base is a bunch of extreme wackos, and they\u2019re not. You\u2019re talking to a fringe group thinking they\u2019re the conservative base. They\u2019re not.” Now, I may still tell him this at some point, but he\u2019s been all over the political spectrum politically. <\/p>\n

He\u2019s come out for abortion, he\u2019s against abortion. He\u2019s thought Obama was a great guy and thought Bush was an idiot. Now, “Where is it written that people can\u2019t change their minds and can\u2019t grow?” Well, where it\u2019s written in core beliefs. Somebody really has a core belief, the core beliefs don\u2019t fluctuate. This is what people are trying to figure out with Trump. When you get down to brass tacks, the best thing you could say is, I think — forget the independent run or whatever — the real question: Is he conservative? He says he is but is he really? You have to balance what he\u2019s saying now by itself and then come back and compare to what he said in the past. You won\u2019t find… Like, I\u2019m a committed conservative. I don\u2019t have a past like Trump does why I have disagreed with myself so many times.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I agree with you a hundred percent. I feel exactly the same way. I know what I feel and I\u2019ve never changed my mind about it. I\u2019m definitely as conservative as they get, but what you\u2019re saying… If you get back to the presidency and if he would… You can\u2019t go by what he says now because of what he said in the past. The only thing we can do is if he would get elected, all we can do is hope that he lives by —<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, you\u2019re gonna have to —<\/p>\n

CALLER: — conservative values.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No. No. You\u2019re gonna have to go on what he says now and then compare that to things he said in the past. If you\u2019re gonna assume that what he\u2019s saying now he\u2019s not being sincere about then you write him off. I mean, you don\u2019t even give him the time of day.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay, but my point is… I guess I should have explained it a little bit more, you didn\u2019t understand what I meant. If he would get the Republican nomination, okay?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: We\u2019re not gonna — I\u2019m not gonna — sit out. I\u2019m not like that. I\u2019m gonna vote, and if he is the conservative candidate, I\u2019m gonna vote for him. I\u2019m gonna vote for him and I\u2019m gonna hope that he does live by conservative values and governs by conservative values.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, if he gets the Republican nomination… Look, if Elmer Fudd gets the Republican nomination I\u2019m voting Elmer Fudd! This is where our party, I think, is a little bit screwed up here. I\u2019ve gotta take a break here because I\u2019m getting way long in my next segment, but we\u2019re gonna have this conversation many, many more times down the road so just be patient, folks. It will all become clear.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, this Trump business, in person, he\u2019s much like he\u2019s behaving here in this campaign. I don\u2019t know if you saw the episode of The Haney Project that Al Michaels was with me, but we were sharing mutual stories about Trump. Trump has a course out in Palos Verdes, California. It\u2019s a public course, beautiful, just overlooking the Pacific Ocean, on a great day you can see Catalina Island. It\u2019s just a stunning, stunning golf course. And, you know, when you play golf with Trump, wherever you play it\u2019s the best course in the world. His course, never been to a place like it, there\u2019s no better piece of property anywhere. He said, “Everybody talks about Pebble Beach. The hell with Pebble Beach. What they got in Pebble Beach? What\u2019s the body of water in Pebble Beach?” “Well,” I said, “It\u2019s the bay. They call it Carmel Bay.” “That\u2019s right. They have a bay. I have an ocean. My course is on an ocean. They\u2019re in a little piddly bay.” Well, you have to go a long way to get a better course than Pebble Beach. It\u2019s just the way he is. He\u2019s constantly selling. But it\u2019s funny. The way he is does not rub people the wrong way. Well, it rubs some women the wrong way, but I have experience with that, too. So I understand it, the braggadocio, all that kind of stuff. Some don\u2019t dig it. <\/p>\n
