You know, they only have the governorship and state legislature in four states.&nbsp; They\u2019ve just been wiped out.&nbsp; And so they are in panic.&nbsp; They are hysterical.&nbsp; They\u2019re unhinged.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_131600\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Trump-Apprentice-Cabinet-D.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">And here comes Trump, who is not political in the sense of being a politician.&nbsp; His transition begins and he starts acting like he\u2019s already president, and they\u2019re offended by that.&nbsp; And then they say, &#8220;This is so unpresidential. This is so unseemly. This is just beyond the pale. This is unacceptable. This is not how it\u2019s done. Taking a call from Taiwan?&#8221;&nbsp; They are beside themselves here with the way Trump is violating every bit of behavioral protocol that they think exists.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>And then the names started getting bandied about for secretary of state, and he starts filling various cabinet positions somewhat quickly.&nbsp; He surrounds himself with his inner circle of advisers relatively quickly, and the first roster of names for secretary of state are all friends and supporters.&nbsp; And then it expands.&nbsp; And the friends and supporters seem to fall out of favor, and new people start showing up like Mitt Romney. And Trump goes to dinner with Romney and spends a lot of time saying nice things about Romney.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Romney was dead set against him the entire campaign.&nbsp; And then other names.&nbsp; Jon Huntsman, who\u2019s got ties to the Obama Regime, he was one of the ChiCom ambassadors at one time.&nbsp; He\u2019s also from Utah, Mormon, in competition, in a sense, with the Romney family.&nbsp; Throw other names in there.&nbsp; He picks a secretary of defense rather quickly.&nbsp; He\u2019s picked <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2016\/12\/05\/us\/politics\/ben-carson-housing-urban-development-trump.html\">Ben Carson for Housing and Urban Development<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But the list of names for secretary of state is still expanding, and Trump doesn\u2019t appear anywhere near making a choice.&nbsp; We\u2019ve got David Petraeus thrown in. We got John Bolton.&nbsp; Consultations with Dr. Kissinger are taking place.&nbsp; In fact, Trump is leaving Trump Tower today to go over to talk to Dr. Kissinger at Dr. Kissinger\u2019s office.&nbsp; The one guy who doesn\u2019t make the trek to Trump Tower is Dr. Kissinger.&nbsp; Trump\u2019s going over to see him.&nbsp; I got some sound bites on that coming up that are very funny.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, have you noticed in all of this, you noticed all the opinion pieces complimenting Trump on the seriousness of his search?&nbsp; No, I haven\u2019t seen those, either, \u2019cause there aren\u2019t any.&nbsp; But how else can you interpret this?&nbsp; I mean, on the one hand they\u2019re unhinged and they are historical and they\u2019re paranoid. They think Trump has no idea what he\u2019s doing, it\u2019s scary embarrassing, and yet Trump is being deliberative, he\u2019s being thorough, he is taking his time.&nbsp; It\u2019s obvious that he has a foreign policy, and it is obvious that he\u2019s looking for the right person to implement it.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now, the unhinged hysteria types would try to tell you that Trump doesn\u2019t know anything and he doesn\u2019t have a foreign policy and he\u2019s talking to all these people essentially to be educated and to be schooled \u2019cause he doesn\u2019t even &#8212; for example, he probably wouldn\u2019t know the subcontinent is, and he wouldn\u2019t know where Micronesia is, and they probably have to tell him where India is and how Iceland isn\u2019t ice, it\u2019s green, and how Greenland isn\u2019t green, it\u2019s ice.&nbsp; That\u2019s how stupid they think he is.&nbsp; They\u2019re gonna continue to make that mistake, by the way.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>They will never be able to admit that Trump is smart or smarter than they are because they are the smartest people in the room and Trump doesn\u2019t have the pedigree, doesn\u2019t come from the right places. They\u2019re never gonna come to grips with this and Trump knows that and I think he\u2019s gonna be toying with them like my cat toys with little geckos that it finds in the house.&nbsp; You ought to see that.&nbsp; I have to rescue geckos, at least two or three a week.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You know what?&nbsp; I was sitting there, I was watching something on TV the other night, and all of a sudden &#8212; it didn\u2019t register immediately.&nbsp; But there\u2019s this racket going on, on the sofa, right behind me.&nbsp; And I figured it was just the cat, Allie, trying to get comfortable behind me. But it kept going and finally she started head-butting me, so I said, &#8220;Okay, what the hell?&#8221; and I got up and turned around, there was a dead gecko.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_131636\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Trump-Meet-1.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">She had brought a dead gecko, and it was on the back of the sofa, just inches from my head.&nbsp; She was proudly showing the thing off.&nbsp; I said, &#8220;Allie, did you have to kill it?&nbsp; They\u2019re our friends. They kill the insects.&#8221;&nbsp; But she doesn\u2019t know that.&nbsp; She brought me a present.&nbsp; And I love those little geckos, I call them little buddies.&nbsp; But she toys with \u2019em.&nbsp; I can tell when she\u2019s found one \u2019cause she starts meowing like crazy if it has gone someplace that she can\u2019t get; she goes insane.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s how these people are with Trump.&nbsp; I mean, they don\u2019t know what\u2019s hit them yet.&nbsp; He\u2019s being very deliberate with the secretary of state search.&nbsp; He\u2019s not trying to impress anybody with the speed of his picks.&nbsp; He\u2019s not trying to impress anybody trying to show them he knows what they think he doesn\u2019t know.&nbsp; He\u2019s not trying to meet any kind of artificial deadline.&nbsp; He had an initial list of people and apparently wasn\u2019t satisfied.&nbsp; He keeps conducting serious interviews with really serious people and an expanding list of them.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s parading a bunch of people in and out of Trump Tower. I think most of the people parading in and out of there are for show, to tell you the truth.&nbsp; I really do.&nbsp; I think Trump\u2019s having more fun than you and I can possibly imagine.&nbsp; I know he is, folks, I used to do the Rush to Excellence Tour the first two years of this program back in 1989 &#8212; actually three, \u201988, \u201989, and \u201990.&nbsp; And when he\u2019s on stage &#8212; he\u2019s got another one in coming up Fayetteville, North Carolina &#8212; but last Thursday night in Cincinnati, I\u2019m telling you, he\u2019s having more fun than any politician has ever been thought to be having fun.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He is literally immersed in enjoyment and joy.&nbsp; He is eating it up.&nbsp; And I think this endless parade of people parading in and out of the Trump Tower, I think a lot of it is just a show.&nbsp; The people involved don\u2019t know it.&nbsp; I mean, everybody being brought in there, they want to be seen, they\u2019re stopping for the cameras, and some of them are walking to the microphones.&nbsp; They want to be seen.&nbsp; They want the news out that they have been summoned to Trump Tower.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the red carpet in reverse.&nbsp; He\u2019s rolling out the red carpet.&nbsp; But they\u2019re all making the trek to see him.&nbsp; The only one who is not is Dr. Kissinger.&nbsp; (Kissinger impression) &#8220;I told the president-elect that the only place I\u2019m going to go is to Le Cirque and if he wants to see me, to meet me there, or come to my office.&#8221; And that\u2019s it, Trump\u2019s going to his office. (interruption) Hmm?&nbsp; Well, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.&nbsp; But the contrast here to what everybody told us to expect versus what\u2019s happening is stark.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &nbsp;So I just checked the email.&nbsp; &#8220;Mr. Limbaugh, are you going to go to Trump Tower?&nbsp; Have you been asked to come?&#8221;&nbsp; No.&nbsp; Folks, they only call me when they get in trouble. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And now to the phones.&nbsp; Suzanne, Blounts Creek, North Carolina, welcome to the EIB Network.&nbsp; Hello.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Good day Rush.&nbsp; This is an early Christmas present.&nbsp; Thank you for taking my call.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; You\u2019re more than welcome.&nbsp; It\u2019s great to have you out there.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Okay.&nbsp; In reference to Giuliani&#8230; (coughs) Excuse me. I have lost my voice and regained it.&nbsp; But two weeks ago, he was on Fox &#038; Friends in the morning, and the topic of secretary of state came up and a lot of names, his included. And he leaned forward, smiled, and said, &#8220;I\u2019m the best qualified,&#8221; and as soon as he said that, I thought, &#8220;Oh, my. If Trump\u2019s watching this, he\u2019s not going to appreciate that eagerness.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Let me tell you something, Suzanne.&nbsp; Trump watches TV.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Okay. (laughing) Sure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: He watches so much TV, he thinks certain things are popular that aren\u2019t.&nbsp; For example, Morning Joe.&nbsp; They got no viewers.&nbsp; He may be the only one.&nbsp; But because he watches, he thinks everybody does.&nbsp; Nobody does.&nbsp; He sees everything on TV.&nbsp; He does not delegate people to watch TV for him.&nbsp; So I\u2019m sure he saw that, and you\u2019re probably right. It didn\u2019t sit well.&nbsp; He\u2019s the one that\u2019s going to decide who\u2019s qualified or not, and I\u2019m sure that put him in an untenable&#8230; If he said it. Did you actually see Rudy say that be was he joking or was he serious?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; He looked serious.&nbsp; He leaned forward, he smiled, and he said, &#8220;But I\u2019m the best qualified.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_131637\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Trump-Meet-2.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">RUSH:&nbsp; Well, look, let\u2019s treat it both ways.&nbsp; Let\u2019s say he was dead serious in saying so and thinks thought process is, &#8220;Look, Trump likes decisiveness, and I\u2019m gonna show Trump I\u2019m decisive.&#8221; But Trump ought not need to see anything Rudy.&nbsp; I mean, he knows him well, he can obviously trust him.&nbsp; So if you go on TV and you say, &#8220;Obviously, I\u2019m the most qualified,&#8221; you\u2019re kind of putting Trump in a dangerous position.&nbsp; I mean, you\u2019re making it look like the decision is kind of taken out of Trump\u2019s hands or being forced or what have you.&nbsp; It\u2019s Trump that\u2019s supposed to decide who\u2019s best qualified or not.&nbsp;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Well, I was wondering if Trump has taken a step back and is looking at all these people who are so sure of themselves, and he\u2019s not talking about them. I do see Newt Gingrich still in the news and he\u2019s still supportive, but I haven\u2019t seen &#8212;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, but Newt doesn\u2019t&#8230; That\u2019s a different story.&nbsp; Let me &#8212;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Well, I know. He\u2019s not in the running for secretary of state.&nbsp; He\u2019s already said that he &#8212;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Right.&nbsp; He wants to be the grand strategist.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Exactly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; He wants to be the grand wizard behind the curtain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; That\u2019s fine with me.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; He wants to be the Wizard of Trump.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; That\u2019s fine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Let me ask you, did you hear the first segment of the program today, Suzanne?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Oh, yes.&nbsp; Oh, yes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Okay.&nbsp; Well, I think that segment gave you the answer you\u2019re looking for, or at least a potential answer as to what Trump is doing, because you\u2019re observing here that the expansion of people &#8212; the list that\u2019s growing &#8212; is largely people didn\u2019t support him.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh yeah.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I mean, these new candidates are people that did not support him, and so people ask, &#8220;Why is this?&nbsp; I mean, why&#8230;?&#8221; People that don\u2019t understand this.&nbsp; People who voted for Trump think that Romney and some of these others, that Trump ought to see them as the enemy. &#8220;He ought to see them as the enemy.&nbsp; These guys do not have his best interests at heart.&#8221;&nbsp; But yet Trump\u2019s talking to \u2019em. Trump might choose one of them, and I was trying to provide a reason why that might happen in the opening segment of the program.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Yeah.&nbsp; As soon as you heard Romney\u2019s name I automatically thought, &#8220;Keep your friends close. Keep your enemies closer.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Yeah.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Automatically.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Well, it\u2019s a version of that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Yeah.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; The thing about that is, is Trump doing this instinctively or is it a thought out and strategic move?&nbsp; And that would argue against it being Machiavellian.&nbsp; Machiavellian is instinctive.&nbsp; And you can still be Machiavellian in your strategic thinking. You could, yeah.&nbsp; Hey, look, time is dwindling here.&nbsp; I need to ask you, Suzanne with you would you like a new iPhone, a 7 or 7 Plus?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Oh, mercy.&nbsp; Well, let me ask you: I have a quick question.&nbsp; If I forgo and offer that to the next veteran who calls, or is that redundant, would the next veteran get one anyway?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_131638\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Trump-Machiavelli-OPEN-B.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">RUSH:&nbsp; Well, the problem with that is anybody can call and say they\u2019re a veteran.&nbsp;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Oh.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; You take the phone and personally give it to a veteran.&nbsp; You could.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; You are so sweet!&nbsp; Whatever you say.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Okay.&nbsp; I\u2019m gonna send you an iPhone 7 Plus that will work on any cell carrier. That way you\u2019ll be able to give it to any veteran you want.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Oh, thank you.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, you\u2019re very welcome.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: You are so precious, and thank you for all you do.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Oh, I\u2019m happy to do it. Just hang on so we can get an address where we can FedEx it to you.&nbsp; FedEx is busy this time of year and sometimes they don\u2019t make the next-day delivery, but everything that we\u2019ve sent out so far has made it the next out.&nbsp; Yours probably will, too.&nbsp; But just, now, remember here, Suzanne: It\u2019ll be unlocked. It\u2019ll work on any cell phone carrier in the world, and it does not have a SIM card in it.&nbsp; You tell the veteran that.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Answering an email. No, I don\u2019t think Jeb Bush will end up in the potential secretary of state mix.&nbsp; Well, people are asking me \u2019cause of the opening half hour of the program. Jeb signed up as a lobbyist and that disqualifies him.&nbsp; Trump\u2019s hiring no lobbyists, and if you work with Trump you can\u2019t be a lobbyist for five years after Trump fires you.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: &nbsp;Let\u2019s talk about Trump and this secretary of state position here.&nbsp;
