It shouldn\u2019t matter she seizes up. It shouldn\u2019t matter she has to go to ER.&nbsp; It shouldn\u2019t matter any of this.&nbsp; Why aren\u2019t I 50 points ahead?&nbsp; You gotta get the word out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>How much money has she already spent trying to get the word out?&nbsp; Who in the world doesn\u2019t know about Donald Trump?&nbsp; Donald Trump\u2019s got more name recognition than she\u2019s got, or at least as much as.&nbsp; There isn\u2019t anybody that doesn\u2019t know about Trump.&nbsp; If I might succinctly remind you of something.&nbsp; All the way back in the primaries I tried to tell everybody opposing Trump that you can\u2019t do it by trying to tell people who he is.&nbsp; They already know.&nbsp; Trump is more well-known than anybody else in the Republican field.&nbsp; He\u2019s as well-known as Hillary, as well-known as Obama.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_127842\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Hillary-50-points-ahead.gif\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">In other words, that\u2019s not ammunition for you, telling people who Trump is.&nbsp; They already know.&nbsp; And yet what\u2019s Hillary want to do?&nbsp; And of course it doesn\u2019t matter.&nbsp; She\u2019s continuing to run this playbook that is decades old, that does not account for the fact the specifics of her opponent.&nbsp; It really is fascinating, folks, to watch this, to watch the Democrats and all of their super consultants like Bob Shrum, they really don\u2019t know what to do.&nbsp; They build their campaign playbook as do the Republicans based on time-honored experience and tradition and focus groups and marketing and demographics, all kinds of historical references, and none of that applies here.&nbsp;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>But they don\u2019t know how to adapt to it.&nbsp; They\u2019ve never seen a game plan like this.&nbsp; Trump doesn\u2019t even know from day to day what the game plans is, although he\u2019s getting a little more disciplined about it lately.&nbsp; They don\u2019t know how to go up against this, and Hillary is displaying this with her shrieking plea to these union guys, &#8220;Why aren\u2019t I 50 points ahead?&#8221;&nbsp; And part of that is she\u2019s blaming them.&nbsp; But mostly she\u2019s plaintively asking, &#8220;Why aren\u2019t I 50 points ahead?&nbsp; Don\u2019t they know this is mine?&nbsp; It\u2019s my coronation.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>None of that applies.&nbsp; But let me take a stab at this nevertheless.&nbsp; Hillary wants to know why she\u2019s not 50 points ahead.&nbsp; I\u2019m sure you could help her as well.&nbsp; Let\u2019s see if I can help explain it to her.&nbsp; Benghazi.&nbsp; Four Americans dead and your reaction was to lie about a video being responsible and then to say, &#8220;What difference does it make now?&#8221; that four Americans died.&nbsp; People heard that.&nbsp; Libya, absolute disaster.&nbsp; Syria, where Mrs. Clinton wants a hundred thousand additional Syrian refugees pouring in the country.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By the way, are you ready for this?&nbsp; A little trip back down memory lane before I tell you.&nbsp; Remember the negotiation period when Obama was working with John Kerry, working with supposed moderate Iranians on a great deal with the Iranians that ultimately was going to allow them nuclear weapons.&nbsp; Remember the Corker Bill, and remember the original thought of the Corker Bill, most people like you and me thought, &#8220;Ahd, the Corker Bill, that\u2019s the Republicans, they\u2019re gonna step in there and they\u2019re gonna stop this from happening, \u2019cause there\u2019s no way, it doesn\u2019t make any sense.&nbsp; Why would we facilitate the world\u2019s state sponsor of terrorism getting a nuclear weapons arsenal?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2016\/09\/21\/it_wasn_t_supposed_to_be_this_way\"><img id=\"eZObject_127849\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/HillaryCrownedPIX.jpg\"\/><\/a>The Corker Bill did the exact opposite.&nbsp; The Corker Bill actually, by the way it was written and functioned, facilitated Obama and John Kerry getting a deal, and then we found out why.&nbsp; We found out why, that Republicans and members of the establish wanted sanctions raised against Iran.&nbsp; Iran\u2019s infrastructure was dilapidated, collapsing, their national airline was a disgrace.&nbsp; We learned that Boeing, as part of the process of contributing to Republicans, had advocated for the lifting of sanctions so that the Iranians would have money to buy Boeing jetliners to replace their aging commercial fleet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Just today or last night &#8212; I just got the news story &#8212; Obama has given the ultimate green light for Boeing to accept contracts from Iran for the purchase of new jetliners to modernize their national air fleet.&nbsp; And that\u2019s one of the many reasons why the Iranian nuke deal happened, because donors wanted the Iranians to have enough money to be able to buy jets.&nbsp; And that was just green-lighted by Obama today.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>People know this, people understand it.&nbsp; They may not be totally up to speed on things like that, but they don\u2019t know why in the world we are helping the Iranians nuke up.&nbsp; It doesn\u2019t make sense to \u2019em.&nbsp; Hillary\u2019s hidden email server.&nbsp; This could be another thing Mrs. Clinton, why you aren\u2019t 50 points ahead, dealing in classified material that you didn\u2019t seem to care whether it was private or not, lackadaisical, plus you\u2019re trying to hide things from people.&nbsp; You\u2019re not honest about your shockingly ill health, Mrs. Clinton.&nbsp; You just can\u2019t have these public episodes, seizures and near collapses and wandering eyes and all the others that we\u2019ve seen.<\/p>\n<p>The Democrats are living in fantasy land if they think people aren\u2019t noticing or if they think people won\u2019t care.&nbsp; I actually saw a little blurb, I think it was yesterday in advance of today\u2019s release of the latest NBC News\/Wall Street Journal poll.&nbsp; And the blurb was that voters didn\u2019t really care about Hillary\u2019s sickness episode, didn\u2019t bother them at all.&nbsp; And, by the same token, they weren\u2019t bothered by something Trump said or did. &nbsp;It was a bipartisan, &#8220;The American voter didn\u2019t care,&#8221; and I looked at it, and I said, &#8220;Frankly, I\u2019m sorry, I don\u2019t believe this.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I do not believe that people paying attention during a presidential year are not going to factor the health of one of the two nominees, particularly if it\u2019s as bad as Hillary\u2019s is.&nbsp; How about Mrs. Clinton saying that Trump\u2019s voters can be put into a basket of deplorables?&nbsp; How about all these riots in the streets, smearing of local police, open borders, sanctuary cities?&nbsp; Her voice: &#8220;I ain\u2019t no ways tired.&#8221;&nbsp; She can\u2019t attract flies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She had another rally yesterday or the day before.&nbsp; Folks, the number of people were in the hundreds.&nbsp; The number was somewhere in the hundreds.&nbsp; She just can\u2019t draw flies.&nbsp; There is no magnetism, there is no excitement to her rallies.&nbsp; People don\u2019t care.&nbsp; She\u2019s not likable.&nbsp; She\u2019s not trustworthy.&nbsp; I could go on and on.&nbsp; Why aren\u2019t you 50 points ahead?&nbsp; There are a whole lot of reasons.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH:&nbsp;&nbsp;
