Great to have you on the EIB Network. How are you doing?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Great. I appreciate you taking my call.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You bet.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m a listener and very appreciative of how you keep us all informed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-228765\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/RushMSNBCBanned.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/RushMSNBCBanned.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/RushMSNBCBanned-300x128.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/>RUSH: Thank you, sir, very much. It doesn\u2019t matter what it is, you are informed if I talk about it here.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I just wanted to make a quick comment. I usually get up early in the morning and watch a little bit of PMSNBC, but usually I have to turn \u2019em off in about five minutes because it\u2019s, you know, just so one-sided. But today they were extremely appreciative of Trump, you know. They were&#8230; Even Mika wasn\u2019t rolling her eyes. But I just wanted to get your opinion on Scarborough being a Republican and what he did down in Florida. But he had, you know, David Ignatius and had &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: What do you mean &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; Bob Woodward on there.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What do you mean &#8220;what he did down in Florida&#8221;?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: As a congressman, you know?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Oh.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: When he was down there at that time, but today he was just &#8212; you know, they were just &#8212; gushing with praise for what, you know, (unintelligible).<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, there are many things in the media landscape, many things, and I understand almost all of them. But there are a few that I don\u2019t get (chuckling), and this is one of them. (chuckling) I don\u2019t get the interest. I don\u2019t get the curiosity. I don\u2019t. Your specific question is that you watched Morning Joe today, and they all of a sudden loved Trump again because this attack on Syria?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Right. Usually, I watch about five minutes and I go switch back to Fox.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-228770\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MOrningJoe.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MOrningJoe.jpg 670w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MOrningJoe-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>CALLER: But then, you know, the other day, for example, Mika was on there. She spent half hour going through all the polls. You know, Trump couldn\u2019t get elected as a dogcatcher anywhere in the United States according to her.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Today they were just very, very supportive.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, my question is: Since this stuff obviously pains you, why do you watch it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, I just like to get a little opinion. I\u2019m kind of hoping maybe that they\u2019ll get somebody on there that does speak a little more positive about the presidency and stuff.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I see. Okay. Human nature is a fascinating thing. I mean, you\u2019re not the only one. There are people that watch what they don\u2019t like all the time hoping it\u2019ll change or maybe they just keep&#8230; They need to be mad. So they watch stuff that makes them mad, knowing it\u2019s gonna make them mad. (sigh) You know, I\u2019m gonna take the opportunity here to say I gotta go to break. This is one of those things, there\u2019s no winning for me no matter what I tell you on this. (laughing) There\u2019s just&#8230; There isn\u2019t. There\u2019s no winning. I\u2019m not&#8230; (interrupting) He what? He asked me&#8230;? (interruption) I didn\u2019t hear him say Scarborough. He said Mika! Mika this, Mika that, Mika this. I didn\u2019t hear him ask me about Scarborough. I didn\u2019t hear him mention Scarborough\u2019s name.
