RUSH: We go to Las Vegas.  John, you\u2019re first.  It\u2019s great to have you on the EIB Network.  Hello, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Hello, Rush.  Mega dittos.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  So let me first say that I think Trump is gonna win big time.  We can talk about that later.  But my question is, if he does win with the media being all-in in a way we\u2019ve never seen before, what are the repercussions to the media?<\/p>\n

RUSH:  What exactly do you mean?  Do you mean will there be blowback negative effects on the media because they will have been proven to be ineffective or the other side will —<\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER:  Yes, exactly.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Well, the media —<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Exactly that.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  The media does not act like they ever lose.  If Trump wins, their attitude is gonna be, “Well, it\u2019s just gonna take us a little longer to destroy him.”  And they will continue to try to destroy Trump.  And they will do it by finding Democrats who think that he deserves to be impeached.  I mean, look at what they did to George W. Bush after the Florida recount.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  I understand that.  But it just seems to me that having gone all-in in such a big way and not having moved the needle an inch, and if Trump wins… I mean, at a certain point you would think that the stock analysts and everybody else who owns the stations — you know, the investors — are gonna go, “Okay, something\u2019s wrong here.” But maybe not.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Now, wait a minute.  Now you\u2019re bringing a different fact.  You\u2019re talking about some people other than media now.  You\u2019re talking about the betting markets now?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  No.  No.  I mean mass media\u2019s owned. They\u2019re public companies.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Oh.  Oh.  Oh.  No, no, no.  No.  Let me… I get it now.  You think the media\u2019s gonna eat crow. You think the media\u2019s gonna figure, “You know what? We are so out of touch, we had better change and get with the American people.”  You\u2019re thinking that that might be some of the reaction.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  I think that the owners might force that.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  It\u2019ll never happen.  Never, ever gonna happen. No. I mean, would you expect the Democrat Party to do that?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  (laughing) No.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Well, that\u2019s who they are.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Yeah, but they\u2019re turning into the equivalent of the Labour Party in England.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  They are.  The media is the Democrat Party.  The media does not do news.  The media is the Democrat Party hacks assigned to journalism positions.  Some hacks are consultants.  Some are candidates.  Some serve in elective office.  Some are professors.  Some are teaching assistants.  Some run think tanks.  Others are in the media.  And it\u2019s a circuitous, almost an incestuous.  They go from one to the other.  You have Drive-Bys go from being spokesmen for candidates to being communications directors, to going back to being in the news media. <\/line><\/p>\n

Some may even run for office sometime, although that doesn\u2019t happen much.  But I\u2019ve been watching things like this all my life.  When the Democrat Party lost to Ronald Reagan<\/a> in two landslides, it was the American people\u2019s fault.  It was Reagan\u2019s fault.  “The American people fell for a dunce! The American people were fooled.  The American people were idiots.  Reagan was a stupid fool,” and the Democrats and the media embarked on plans to stop Reagan at every turn, and they failed more than they succeeded.  But it\u2019s never gonna get to the point…<\/p>\n

Even after the 2002 midterm elections, it didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

These are a good illustration for my point.<\/p>\n

The first congressional election after Bush had won the White House, traditionally the incumbent party loses seats in the House and Senate just because. After two years, enough people are already fed up with the new president; then they vote the other party.  Bush\u2019s party, the Republican Party, actually gained seats in the 2002 off-years because of the Wellstone memorial that the Democrats pulled off.  And even after that shocking loss, the Democrats didn\u2019t change, and they didn\u2019t say, “You know what?  We\u2019re really veered way out of touch with the American people.  We need to get back.” <\/p>\n

Nah.  No, no. <\/p>\n

They\u2019re constitutionally incapable of that, and so are the people that run the news divisions.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Ladies and gentlemen, let me expand on the premise and my answer to the last caller and also reference an email that I saw here during the break.  I don\u2019t like sometimes having to burst bubbles.  It is for me — I\u2019ve been doing this a long time now — it\u2019s easy to spot relative newcomers to all this.  And I welcome it.  Do not misunderstand.  I was one once.  I, for example, used to be of the frame of mind, I used to believe that we could change the media.  I was as naive as anybody. <\/p>\n

For example, when the media would call and want to interview me, I thought it was \u2019cause they really wanted to find out what I thought about things.  I thought it was because they really wanted to find out who I am.  I\u2019m new, I\u2019m not well-known before I showed up doing this show, I thought there was genuine curiosity.  That\u2019s not what they wanted.  They already in their minds knew who I was and they didn\u2019t like it, and they wanted face-to-face opportunities to expose my defects and my problems and my racism and bigotry and all this. <\/line><\/p>\n

So I would answer their questions honestly under the belief they really wanted to know what I thought, they really wanted to understand the way I thought about political matters.  I was so naive, I really believed that many of them had not considered events as I have seen them.  That\u2019s not at all what was going on.  And so when someone calls here and says, “Hey, Rush, if Trump wins this, I mean, this has gotta be so humiliating and embarrassing, don\u2019t you think that the investors in these big conglomerates that own these networks, like Disney owns ABC, Comcast owns NBC, don\u2019t you think at some point, if they\u2019re so bad and so wrong the investors and the management is gonna demand the media change?” <\/p>\n

That is a perfectly reasonable question if you\u2019re not aware of how things actually function and operate. So telling somebody no, that\u2019s not gonna happen, I feel like I\u2019ve gotta baby them through the answer.  The fact of the matter is that at no time in our lives has the media ever acknowledged they were wrong about anybody. They have never felt the need to apologize for getting something terribly wrong. They have never, after trying to character assassinate people, apologized for doing it when shown they\u2019re wrong. <\/p>\n

So if Trump ends up winning this, the media\u2019s not gonna say, “How were we so wrong?  What did we miss?”  The media is not going to, “Wow, were we out of touch with the American people.”  They\u2019re not gonna think that at all.  They\u2019re gonna think they failed to get people to see Trump the way they wanted you to see Trump.  And that\u2019s just gonna spur them to keep trying.  These are not media people.  They are leftists.  They are liberal Democrats.  And they never, ever allow themselves to believe they are ever out of touch or even in the minority.  They have a condescending contempt for the average voter out there.  That\u2019s why they call the vast majority of the geography of the country flyover country.  It\u2019s a foreign land. <\/p>\n

So much as you would like the media to do a mea culpa, much as you would be gratified and satisfied to hear them say, “You know what?  We really blew this. We were really wrong, really out of touch.  We never understood that Trump was this big.”  They know full well, and they hate it.  And their reaction is gonna be, if Trump wins, that they failed and they\u2019ve gotta keep trying harder.  <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Oh, I just saw another email.  People so subtly tell me they think I\u2019m full of it.  “Rush, I know what that guy was trying to say.  I think that guy has a point.  You might be missing the guy\u2019s point, Rush.  I mean, what the guy\u2019s actually saying is look at the trouble the media is in.  They\u2019re losing readers.  They\u2019re losing advertising. They\u2019re losing audience, their world is crumbling around them.  It doesn\u2019t appear that it\u2019s happening, but it is.  And if Trump pulls this out and wins, it\u2019s going to show they are totally irrelevant, and aren\u2019t they going to know that?”<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t believe, folks, that the media people you see on TV every day from NPR to CBS to ABC to NBC to wherever are ever gonna admit they\u2019re irrelevant, and they\u2019re not gonna start acting like it, and they\u2019re never gonna say, “Gee, you know what?  We might have to alter the way we\u2019re –”  It isn\u2019t gonna happen, even if it means the end of them.  And the reason is simple:  They hate what we believe.  They literally despise the values and the principles that we hold dear, and they don\u2019t like us. <\/p>\n

They are constitutionally — and I mean the way they are made — incapable of thinking that they have media mistake or that they are wrong and that the American people are right.  They\u2019re incapable of believing they\u2019re out of touch.  They don\u2019t think it\u2019s about being in touch.  They don\u2019t write for the American people anyway.  They do their stand ups for the American people. <\/p>\n

Wolf Blitzer reports what he reports so the other news journalists see it and think he\u2019s hotshot, and the rest of them do the same thing.  They don\u2019t write for readers.  They write for the audience of establishment types. None of them mass audience anymore.  They\u2019re all niche.  They\u2019re writing for other website writers and readers and so forth.  I mean, it\u2019s a circle. <\/p>\n

Let me get back to the phones here.  I think I pretty much blown and obliterated this point and exposed it as well as anybody.  Enrique in Los Angeles, you\u2019re next.  I\u2019m glad you waited, sir.  Hi.<\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  Thank you.  The question I got, with two more debates coming up, it seems that the moderators are always liberal and Hillary and them know what questions, how to answer them ahead of time.  What can the Republican Party do to counter that?  Because they\u2019re not allowed to answer questions.  What is the proper thing to do?<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Well, Chris Wallace is moderating one of these debates coming up, right?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Chris Wallace is the best of the bunch.  Now, he\u2019s gonna be hard-hitting on Trump, but he will be on Hillary, too.  Chris Wallace is not afraid of the Matt Lauer treatment; he already gets it working at Fox.  So Chris Wallace is going to be good.  When I hear Chris Wallace\u2019s voice, I actually think I\u2019m listening to something that matters.  I\u2019m watching something that has genuine substance to it, like Brinkley and like the old host of these shows in days gone by.  But the other moderator, I don\u2019t know who the other moderator is.  Let me ask you, in answering your question, let me ask you one.  What did you think — did you see the debate last night?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  I sure did.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  What did you think of it?  How did Pence do, do you think?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  He seemed like a baby.  I mean, I couldn\u2019t even believe how he was jumping in immediately.  I mean, so unprofessional, so unpresidential, just really —<\/p>\n

RUSH:  No, no, not Kaine.  Pence.  How did you think Mike Pence did.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Oh!  No, no.  I apologize.  Pence did incredible.  The opposite of what I just said.  Very professional, very right, but he got cut off so many times.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Okay.  Stop right there.  So Pence did a great job, you think, but he still got cut off.  One of the next two moderators is gonna be this moderator on steroids, not gonna wait for the candidate to remind Trump he called women whatever he did and Mexicans, the moderator\u2019s gonna do it, and what should Trump do? <\/p>\n

I mean, there\u2019s various strategies here on how you react to these kind of things attacks and assaults.  The next moderator is gonna try to do it for Hillary.  Kaine did it himself last night for Hillary.  The next moderator is gonna have to do it for Hillary \u2019cause Hillary won\u2019t.  Well, she will.  But the point is you want the guy, you want Trump to look good, look strong.  How do you do it when you\u2019re being assaulted the way Pence was last night?  In your mind.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  That is the question.  You know, that is I guess the question that — it\u2019s just unbelievable.  I mean, the cutoff —<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Let me ask you this.  Do you think — and, by the way, the debate audience last night was small.  It was smaller than the veep debate in 2012 and smaller than the audience in 2008, but regardless, the people who saw the debate last night, the conventional wisdom in the Drive-By Media and a lot of places, Pence was great, he was calm, he was cool, he was collected, he was smart, he didn\u2019t take the bait. <\/p>\n

Now, do you think, Enrique, the majority of people watching the debate reacted to it that way?  Do you think the people that stopped listening to Puff Daddy for two minutes last night, “You know, this guy, Pence, he was really calm, cool and collected.”  The people that stopped following Kim Kardashian for two hours last night, do you think their conclusion, “This Pence guy really came off like an adult?  Why, this guy, he was really calm, cool and reserved.” I mean, the consensus review of Pence is what I just told you.  Do you think most people watching the debate saw it that way?<\/p>\n

CALLER:  I guess that\u2019s the question, if most of the people are pro-Republican or anti-Democrat —<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Well, the Frank Luntz focus group says they did.  The Frank Luntz focus group said that most people watching thought Kaine was a jerk and Pence was great.  If that\u2019s true, if Trump does the same thing, will he get the same accolades? If Trump doesn\u2019t take the bait, Trump doesn\u2019t fight back, if Trump remains cool, calm, and collected and stays focused on the points he wants to make and ignores the personal attacks from Hillary, will he get the same reviews that Pence got? <\/p>\n

“Man, he was good, man, he was calm, did you see that?  So cool, so collected, not rattled whatsoever.  Hillary was flapping her gums and didn\u2019t have any impact at all.  He stayed focused on his message.”  Do you think he\u2019ll get the same positive reviews that Pence did, if he replicates Pence\u2019s strategy and performance?  And I\u2019m here to tell you the answer to that is “no way.”  <\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
