RUSH: We\u2019ll start here in Wisconsin. This is Dave. Great to have you, sir. Welcome.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s great to talk to you, Rush. First-time caller, longtime listener.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Glad you made it, sir. Thank you very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Say, I just want to quickly remind everybody that President Kennedy used Russian back channels to resolve the Cuban Missile Crisis.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Exactly right. Back channels are used frequently, constantly, and almost all the time. Like my accuracy rating.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. Yeah. It\u2019s all a bunch of malarkey.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It is, because the effort here — and it has largely been successful with a certain percentage of the country. I don\u2019t know what. But the perception is that Trump is illegitimate. That\u2019s the objective every day: To cement that. Everything is done with that primary objective. The secondary objective, of course, is to protect and preserve the Obama legacy, which is a disaster. But Obama must be spared. He must be protected. He must continually be (and remain) on the pedestal of the greatest of all time. I\u2019ll share a little observation I have with you.<\/p>\n

Going back to the dinner I had Saturday night, one of the guests was a very accomplished woman who was one of the first in her field to do what she did. But I can\u2019t say any more \u2019cause it would let you know who it is and I don\u2019t have permission to do that. So I\u2019m not trying to tease you or anything. I\u2019m just respecting people\u2019s privacy. But I\u2019ve been doing this 30 years, and throughout all 30 years I\u2019m continually trying to find new ways to communicate and explain why I think what I think.<\/p>\n

As I was listening to this woman\u2019s story about how she was one of the first to do what she did (she\u2019s not an athlete), it struck me that we get this a lot lately. The first African-American to do something, like be elected president — or the first woman to break the glass ceiling. The first woman to — and it\u2019s always bothered me. I see other people celebrate it and make a big deal of it, and it\u2019s always bothered me, but I\u2019ve never known why. This woman had daughter with her, and her daughter is highly educated, deciding which of two fields she wants to go into.<\/p>\n

And she started talking about women, root for women, how hard it is for women. She asked me a couple questions. I said, “You know, aside from the obvious, I don\u2019t see you as a woman. Why are your accomplishments in any way linked to the fact that you\u2019re a woman? You\u2019re a human being. You\u2019re a person! You live in the United States of America. You do whatever you want to do. Why all this identity politics stuff?” And it finally hit me: It is a way, if you…<\/p>\n

At least in my perception, it is a way to actually be critical of the country, not celebratory of it. The reason for celebrating all of these minorities — women, African-Americans, pick your minority — who do something that hasn\u2019t been done by somebody in that group before? The media goes nuts. It\u2019s one of the greatest things in the world! At the root of that is that America\u2019s unjust, that America is unfair, and that America discriminates, and that America is biased and bigoted and whatever.<\/p>\n

\"\"So this person has overcome the institutional problems and be obstacles that it has placed in the way of our minorities, and that\u2019s why it\u2019s celebrated. By the media and the people who fall for it, championing it, repeating it all on social media. It is a way of actually denigrating the country by saying that somebody finally did it. Somebody worked so hard to overcome the built-in bigotry of the United States. This is why it\u2019s always bothered me. The conversation led to, “I don\u2019t think there are enough women in the Senate.”<\/p>\n

I said, “Why does that…? Do you realize what you\u2019re saying? You\u2019re saying that human beings can\u2019t represent human beings. You\u2019re saying only women can represent women on women\u2019s issues?” I said, “Tell me: What is Women\u2019s Studies i done for anybody but waste their education? What is the point of it?” “Well…” I said, “No, the point of Women\u2019s Studies i is to teach you how unfair and discriminatory your own country is — that\u2019s the whole point of it — and then to convert you to a liberal.” She said, “They didn\u2019t have to. I already am.” I said, “Well, I figured.”<\/p>\n

She was nice, though. She actually wanted to know what I thought about the things that she believed. She was not one of these 30-seconds-and-start-calling-you-names people. It was fascinating. But the perception here is that Trump\u2019s illegitimate and that his presidency is illegitimate and everything that happens in his presidency is illegitimate, and that\u2019s why the assassination hit squad is never ending, because every one of these stories is to feed this perception, because it is not reality.<\/p>\n

The perception that Trump is unjust, illegitimate, the election was flawed, that Trump is a criminal and his actions are criminal because of what he did with the Russians — and, of course, protecting Obama over here, which is a close second to the premise of making Trump illegitimate. That\u2019s what all of this is aimed at. That\u2019s why it\u2019s not news. That\u2019s why it\u2019s not information. It\u2019s not reporting to you things that you don\u2019t know. It\u2019s hideous. And this back-channel thing? Like the caller said: JFK used it solve the Cuban Missile Crisis. And did we eat our lunch on that.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, predictably I got some emails: “What do you mean it\u2019s not a big deal for the first woman, the first African-American.” Let me try this again. I know that I kind of swerved into that because it was not my primary discussion topic. I\u2019m not trying to belittle anyone\u2019s achievement here. It\u2019s always bothered me. It\u2019s just been like a craw. It has just bothered me, and it\u2019s media related, not people related. It\u2019s bothered me, particularly when African-Americans excel at something, the left goes bonkers as though they feel sorry for them.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s this never-ending sympathy that I\u2019m sure in the minds of leftists, the sympathy derives from what the leftist thinks is the horrible existence of a minority in America, not just African-Americans, but women and Hispanics and Latinos. And you pick the minority. The left invents them as they need them. And life in America is so filled with drudgery and there\u2019s so many obstacles put up there by the white patriarchal majority, the white Christian patriarchal majority, that there is sympathy for the victims of this great nation.<\/p>\n

\"\"And so when any one of them triumphs it is portrayed — and it\u2019s not she subconscious. It\u2019s sort of hidden. But it\u2019s portrayed as a triumph over America. That\u2019s how I hear the media going nuts over it. Not as a triumph of personal glory and achievement, but a triumph over the odds. And what are the odds? Discrimination in America. It\u2019s always rubbed me wrong, and it\u2019s always, to me, actually short-changed the person who\u2019s achieved something great, by not focusing on the achievement, but instead focusing on the environment, the supposed environment where it happened. The odds against them, the stacked deck.<\/p>\n

Frank Deford, I\u2019ll give you a modified, moderate example of this. Remember Frank Deford, the great sportswriter, Sports Illustrated, The National, he passed away recently, 78 years old<\/a>. I met him once. I remember Frank Deford primarily from TV commentary. He was on the NBC pregame show for football way, way, way back when, and he had one of the most perceptive observations about fans that was hilarious. Deford could be funny.<\/p>\n

He was talking about fans in Chicago. Chicago\u2019s got the best baseball fans, the best baseball town in America. And Deford could never understand it because the Cubs never won anything. The way Deford looked at it, the fans were stupid for constantly supporting and building up a winner. He had some line about does Chicago want to be known as the best laundry town, want to be known as the best dry cleaning town? It was funny the way he put it together. It was an alternative take on the notion that fans of losing, hapless teams are the best fans ever.<\/p>\n

Well, Frank Deford passed away and there were these obituaries and other articles about him, and in one of them he was asked for his greatest sports memory. And this man had seen and written about sports from his teenage years. He had seen everybody in the modern era. He had watched and seen practically every major event, either live or on TV. So he\u2019s got all of these sports memories to draw on in answering the question, your greatest sports memory.<\/p>\n

And do you know what it was? It wasn\u2019t a sports memory. He was in South Africa when Arthur Ashe took on the white apartheid government in a speech. He said that is the greatest sports memory I have. Now, no quarrel, but it\u2019s not a sports memory. It\u2019s a memory of a guy who played tennis pretty well taking on what? Racism, apartheid, what have you. And this is how leftists look at things. They take the arena of sports — look at what\u2019s happening with ESPN now. All liberal, all the time.<\/p>\n

\"\"And it\u2019s not just that. I think where ESPN is really rubbing people wrong is that they\u2019re portraying a number of these athletes, like Colin Kaepernick, as victims. My whole point, victims of what? What is Colin Kaepernick a victim of? Quarterback for the 49ers, took a knee rather than stand up for the anthem. You know who I\u2019m talking about. So ESPN of course champions him and anybody else who followed Kaepernick and took a knee, why? He\u2019s protesting America. Good for him.<\/p>\n

This is the thing that\u2019s always rubbed me wrong about this is the reason these guys have attention focused on them, the reason they are heralded is they are said to have overcome dire consequences of being an American, the horrible life circumstances of being an American. And they do the whole thing with women who achieve and accomplish. Well, that\u2019s what\u2019s offensive to me. (interruption) Oh, I don\u2019t expect the left to understand.<\/p>\n

I expect the left to be boiling, raging mad if they\u2019re hearing this or when they\u2019re gonna read about the way this is written on Twitter. Twitter will blow up in its own little sphere there. They will have not the slightest idea what I\u2019m talking about. They won\u2019t have the slightest clue. They\u2019re not even gonna try to understand what I\u2019m talking about, because in this case they are guilty. And of course, they, in their own little warped minds, are never guilty.<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s another reason for this too. By continuing to hold onto — \u2019cause are we not long past the first women to do something great, the first African-American to do something great, the first Hispanic, the first transgender to do something great, are we not long past that now? Oh, that\u2019s right. Not \u2019til we get a woman president. That\u2019s precisely my point. What does it matter?<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll tell you how little it mattered to voters. It didn\u2019t matter a hill of beans to voters that they could have had the first woman president. It did matter they could have had the first African-American, but that was because voters wanted to end all this kind of talk, and they thought they could prove the country not racist by voting for and electing a black man. How\u2019d that work out? But they\u2019re not similarly obsessed with the first woman president.<\/p>\n

But we\u2019re long past the era of first this to do something, first that to do something, are there any firsts yet to happen? Well, yes, actually, the first woman to play offensive tackle in the NFL. I thought, what is that sugar bear mama on the Honey Boo Boo, what\u2019s her name? Mama June. She could have played offensive tackle at one time. She lost a lot of weight. So the first woman to throw a touchdown pass in the NFL, the first woman to kick a field goal in the NFL.<\/p>\n

I guess you can make up a bunch of firsts that haven\u2019t happened and then prove that the NFL is discriminating, prove that the NFL is discriminated and bigoted as is America, because women are not allowed to play offensive tackle. And this is the subtext of it. But there\u2019s another thing.<\/p>\n

\"\"By holding to the first woman, the first black, the first homosexual, the first transgender, the first native American, the first whatever, there is also something else more hideous that is woven into this intricate web of deceit, and that is the built-in excuse to why they might or will fail. It\u2019s because America is unjust. When you have the first woman to do something, the media questions, “Why haven\u2019t there been more?” Well, America is unfair, unjust, bigoted, sexist, and misogynistic.<\/p>\n

And yet this one woman, whoever she is doing what, has overcome it. But the next one, if she fails, it\u2019s gonna be because America hasn\u2019t sufficiently changed. So here\u2019s a built-in excuse to fail if you are a victim minority. Oh, that\u2019s what I was gonna say about Kaepernick. The big problem ESPN\u2019s doing beyond just liberalizing and lefting everything is that they are making these athletes victims. Of what, again? American culture and American society.<\/p>\n

And these people that are making gobs of money doing something that 900.9% of the population cannot do and in doing their jobs they provide an outlet of relief for people who want to get away from their day-to-day drudgery and forget about it for three or four hours and watch a game and engage in discussion about it, now we\u2019re being sucked in here politically, and we\u2019re being told that these great athletes and these great stars are victims.<\/p>\n

Kaepernick is a sad, victim, look at what he\u2019s having to do, he can\u2019t get a job now in the NFL. Right, he can\u2019t play, but it\u2019s not because of that. He didn\u2019t get a job because NFL owners are uber-patriots and they\u2019re discriminating against a young African-American. (interruption) Why are you shaking your head at? You said they\u2019re really not gonna understand me now?<\/p>\n

But I\u2019m telling you, I know it\u2019s self-inflicted, but, look, the media couldn\u2019t get enough of it. They picked it up, they championed because today\u2019s left wing is built on victimization, making everybody a victim and then creating sympathy and an impossible set of obstacles to overcome as a means of portraying America as insufficient, therefore needing massive transformational change.<\/p>\n

This is what\u2019s always bugged me about all this. ‘Cause, see, I don\u2019t hate my country. I don\u2019t dislike my country. I never have. And I mostly don\u2019t understand anybody who does. But I know they\u2019re out there.<\/p>\n

I have to take a break here, folks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
