Even running around today portraying your economy as one of the greatest recoveries ever is just a flat-out lie!&nbsp;There isn\u2019t any evidence to back it up.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know what the national debt was when Obama took office? Roughly $10 trillion. You know what it is now? Almost $20 trillion. The national debt has almost doubled, and he\u2019s up there bragging about bringing down the deficit and reducing spending?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know why the unemployment rate\u2019s 5.1%? It\u2019s not because new jobs are being created. It\u2019s because people are leaving the workforce that aren\u2019t being counted anymore. Come on! It\u2019s common sense. Ninety-four, almost 95 million Americans are not working, and they want to talk to us about a plunging unemployment rate?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama is chomping at the bit to get involved in this campaign.&nbsp;He can\u2019t stand not being part of this. And I\u2019ll tell you why. It\u2019s because the Democrat candidate is such a dryball. The Democrat candidate may as well be an empty podium versus Donald Trump out there.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The American dream is not in government, folks. Well, it didn\u2019t used to be. Sadly, for some people it is now.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These people on the left, they really do not understand. I\u2019m telling you, they do not understand when you\u2019re joking about them. They don\u2019t understand when you\u2019re satirizing them. They don\u2019t understand when you\u2019re mocking \u2019em. They just get livid. So, now I,&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RushLimbaugh\/\">Rush Limbaugh<\/a>, am trending again.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama is letting an uncontrolled number in the hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens just pour into this country who are not skilled enough and who don\u2019t speak English and are not educated enough to hope to have any kind of a meaningful, productive job. And yet they\u2019re being hired \u2019cause they\u2019re cheaper than American citizens living in the country, and we are giving them health care, and we are providing them all kinds of benefits.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There isn\u2019t a magic wand.&nbsp;It\u2019s a spirit.&nbsp;It\u2019s an attitude. It\u2019s a desire. It is a vision. And it\u2019s accurate to say the Democrat Party vision today does not have in it a great America, a victorious America, an exceptional America.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The view of America in the Democrat Party today is one of shame and guilt and unfairness and racism and bigotry and all these other things that they obsess over.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Trump doesn\u2019t have a magic wand. He just has the famous, time-honored, American can-do spirit.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama\u2019s policies haven\u2019t led to any economic rebound anywhere other than for the people that are in crony corporate relationships with him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama doesn\u2019t like fracking. Obama doesn\u2019t like oil. Obama doesn\u2019t like fossil fuels. Obama thinks fossil fuels are destroying the country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think Obama looks at America and sees a place that is an undeserving superpower, needs to be cut down to size, needs to find out what it\u2019s like to live in the rest of the world, that we have come by our superpower status in ill-gotten fashion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;JFK wouldn\u2019t have a home in the modern day Democrat Party. They might let him in \u2019cause he was handsome, but outside of that, ideologically, he wouldn\u2019t have a home in the modern day Democrat Party.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think a genuinely upbeat, positive can-do, America-great-again campaign can triumph, \u2019cause I, frankly, think there are vastly more people that want that America than the one that we are being transformed into. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any question about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are at war with each other like we haven\u2019t been since the Civil War.&nbsp;Americans are divided and at war with each other by design. Obama\u2019s not been a unity president. He\u2019s been divisive on purpose.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama is really irritated. He\u2019s one of these people that expects nobody to ever doubt him &#8212; and, when somebody does, there\u2019s something seriously wrong with them.&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Whenever the Drive-Bys talk to Ivanka Trump, almost every time they ask her about her dad\u2019s playboy past or related matters, but you\u2019re not gonna get one question of Chelsea Clinton about her dad\u2019s sex life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s easy for people who have never been defamed, never been lied about, never been challenged, never been attempted to be destroyed. It\u2019s easy for people like that to think they know what they would do, what the people under assault should do. But until it happens to you, it\u2019s &#8212; well, when it happens, you\u2019ll have an entirely different perspective on how to deal with it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Most people care desperately what other people think of \u2019em. Most people live and die based on what other people think of \u2019em. It\u2019s really hard not to care what people think about you. And in certain areas of life you have to have that attitude if you\u2019re gonna be able to endure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;We\u2019re not exaggerating anything here.&nbsp;I don\u2019t know what Fox News is doing, but I don\u2019t exaggerate any aspect of the Obama agenda.&nbsp;I just point out, unlike the Drive-By Media, all the failures, all the promises, all the lies, all the distortions.
