CALLER: Okay.<\/p>\nRUSH: Here\u2019s Craig in southern Ontario. Welcome, sir. Great to have you with us.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Great to be here. Thanks, Rush.<\/p>\n
RUSH: You bet, sir.<\/p>\n
CALLER: I wonder if you\u2019ve had this same notion. I see this hunt for Russian collusion ending only one of two possible ways: A, they find some kind of collusion. (I find it farfetched.) B, in the absence of evidence, they\u2019re gonna sit and have panel after panel for months talking about, “How is it possible that they were able to eliminate and expunge and disappear all of this information?”<\/p>\n
RUSH: You\u2019ve got it! You\u2019ve nailed it. In the first place, the whole premise is absurd. What are we talking about? We\u2019re talking about the ongoing effort to convince the American people that Hillary should have won. That\u2019s what they\u2019re trying to do here.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Okay.<\/p>\n
RUSH: That Hillary should have won; the election was stolen from her because of connections that Trump had with Putin. That means that the Russians somehow were able to rig the election in favor of Trump. That is not possible. There is no evidence for it. And that specifically has not even been alleged. They are leaving it up to people to conclude that is what they\u2019re talking about. They\u2019re using the power of suggestion. They might find a phone call or two. They won\u2019t find any evidence that our election was anything other than a hundred percent legitimate.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Well, I think I\u2019ve heard them already setting this up. I heard a little, tiny sound bite, and I don\u2019t remember if it was Barbara Boxer or Pelosi or one of the other members of the brain trust. But they said, “Well, absence of evidence is no indication that a crime wasn\u2019t committed.” And then I went, “Ohhhh, here we go. We\u2019re gonna have to listen to this for months after… If it ever closes, we\u2019ll have to listen to it for months or years.<\/p>\n
RUSH: If they find any evidence, it\u2019s gonna be of… (sigh) There isn\u2019t any. They\u2019ve been looking for a year. There isn\u2019t any. I don\u2019t even want to discuss if they\u2019re gonna find —<\/p>\n
CALLER: I don\u2019t either.<\/p>\n
RUSH: If they find some, I\u2019m not gonna believe it. I\u2019m gonna tell you right now, I\u2019m not gonna believe it. If they don\u2019t find some, the other side\u2019s gonna say they don\u2019t believe it, and the media, not the Democrats, are gonna — as you say — impanel endless roundtables on TV to discuss how the once-great Bob Mueller ended up being corrupted by Donald Trump. That\u2019ll be number one. Number two: “How did they miss it? With all the leaks to the Post and the Times, how did they miss it?” They\u2019re not gonna accept this, and it won\u2019t matter. The media is gonna continue the premise that Trump cheated, that Hillary should be the president, no matter what happens with this investigation. That\u2019s why I think it\u2019s a waste of time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
