RUSH:  Poor Ryan Lochte.  It\u2019s a shame this guy is not Hillary Clinton.  You know, I know exactly what happened to Ryan Lochte.  We\u2019ll get back to the phones here in just a second.  There\u2019s one more thing — not a new thing — there\u2019s something I need to emphasize about this European bank business as it relates to quantitative easing. <\/p>\n

Poor Ryan Lochte.  You know exactly what the guy\u2019s going through.  He\u2019s a great swimmer, right?  The problem is he happens to be a great swimmer at the same time Phelps is.  So we live in the era of social media.  Social media equals fame.  Fame equals attention equals money.  Man, it\u2019s like there were all kinds of great golfers when Tiger Woods was at his peak, but who knew?  The same thing with Phelps.  Phelps is winning all the golds.  If Phelps wasn\u2019t around, Lochte would be winning a lot of gold, but he isn\u2019t. <\/p>\n

He wants to get noticed.  He\u2019s frustrated.  Second Olympics in a row where Phelps has just totally dominated.  So Lochte does things to try to get noticed, and he succeeds.  But now Ralph Lauren has dropped him.  There\u2019s a second company that\u2019s dropped him as a spokesman, as an endorser.  So we will punish you in this country if you\u2019re a liar, depending on who you are.  “Ralph Lauren announces it will not renew its sponsorship contract with Ryan Lochte.”  That\u2019s the second company.  The first company was Speedo.  Speedo said so long, and now it\u2019s Ralph Lauren. <\/line><\/p>\n

Poor Ryan Lochte.  Now, you might be saying, I\u2019ve had people say, “Isn\u2019t it a shame, Rush, this guy does something stupid like rob a gas station, lie about it. He\u2019s obviously just trying to get noticed. He\u2019s obviously pursuing fame. He\u2019s obviously frustrated, this or that. And over here is Hillary Clinton who\u2019s really telling you one whopper after another of consequence, serious lying, that has to do with reaching the highest levels of power in the country and nobody knows, and that\u2019s the key. <\/p>\n

The reason Ryan Lochte\u2019s world is falling apart is because the media won\u2019t let go of it.  Everyone knows everything he did.  It\u2019s on video.  I don\u2019t know whether they\u2019ve got something in for the guy or not, but this just shows, if the same kind of attention were paid to Hillary Clinton — look at Obamacare.  It\u2019s a dismal failure.  It is an embarrassment. It\u2019s a costly disaster.  It\u2019s a damaging dismal failure, if there was any attention paid to it whatsoever.  But there isn\u2019t. <\/p>\n

And the same thing with Mrs. Clinton.  The country does care about integrity. The country does care about quality, manners, and all this stuff.  But if they don\u2019t hear about it, then they\u2019re not gonna get agitated by it, and with Mrs. Clinton they don\u2019t hear.  I mean, James Comey goes out, does what he does, and then Mrs. Clinton (imitating Clinton), “Oh, that\u2019s not what he said. I didn\u2019t hear him say anything.” And that\u2019s what gets spread around, what Mrs. Clinton\u2019s take on it is. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s a shame, in a way, but that\u2019s how it happens.  It\u2019s not that people don\u2019t mind if Hillary lies.  It\u2019s they really don\u2019t know, not like they have been told about Ryan Lochte.  His entire life has been put under a microscope.  Hillary Clinton hasn\u2019t had, despite what people might think, she\u2019s not had destructive attention.  She\u2019s not had the kind of attention that\u2019s designed to do real, permanent damage from the Drive-By Media.  <\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
