We\u2019ll start in Coronado, California. Bob, I\u2019m glad you called. What\u2019s up? What\u2019s your thought on this?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, Rush, thanks for clarifying all this in the first hour.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I appreciate you feeling like it was clarified because that was the objective.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-247074\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/650-091417-Trust-in-Trump-RUSH.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/650-091417-Trust-in-Trump-RUSH.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/650-091417-Trust-in-Trump-RUSH-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>CALLER: Yes. And, Rush, what I think\u2019s important is that what I see the Democrats are doing is they\u2019re willing to work with Trump. And I\u2019m willing to give away some of my ideals as long as Trump does something even with them. That\u2019s very disappointing, but if Ryan and McConnell aren\u2019t gonna cooperate at all, I would rather see Trump pass tax reform &#8212; even tax reform light &#8212; with Democrat policies involved than see the Republicans stymieing him. So I\u2019m not gonna give up on Trump even if he starts to move to the left to get something done with tax reform. Doing nothing is no longer an option.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: But what&#8230;? Let me ask you something here, Bob. What if what he gets done&#8230;? Because Chuck Schumer said back in January that the only way they\u2019ll work with Trump is if he moves in their direction, if he moves their agenda. What if that\u2019s what happens? What if a tax reform package soaks it to the rich and gives some tax relief to the middle class? It won\u2019t be much if the Democrats are involved. What if that\u2019s how it happens?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, Rush, to me that\u2019ll be horribly disappointing. But that being said, if we just sit and follow McConnell and Ryan and say, &#8220;Well, nothing\u2019s gonna happen at least until 2018&#8230;&#8221; I mean, this is an opportunity of a lifetime to wipe out about 10 or 12 more Democrat senators next year.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I know. I know. I mentioned this yesterday, and that wasn\u2019t the first time. The opportunity that exists here&#8230; If you\u2019re conservative, if you\u2019re Republican, I dare say that if you\u2019re over 50, you didn\u2019t think &#8212; you never thought &#8212; that what happened last November would be possible. You wouldn\u2019t think a Republican (I don\u2019t care who it is) could win the White House and that we would control the House and the Senate at the same time and have the Democrats\u2019 2018 prospects be in the tank, which they are.<\/p>\n<p>The Democrats stand to lose even more seats in the Senate. It\u2019s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It\u2019s certainly a once-in-a-generation opportunity to fix everything that has been on our minds for 30 years. It\u2019s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it\u2019s not being utilized &#8212; and it isn\u2019t being utilized, sadly, because the perception is that it\u2019s House and Senate Republicans that are refusing to work with Trump, that they\u2019re embarrassed of him, that they don\u2019t want Trump to become the definition of a Republican.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t want Trump to define the Republican Party agenda. They are also very, very (sigh) loyal. They owe a lot to their donors. The donors hate Trump. The Chamber of Commerce hates Trump. All of these people that the Republicans think they can\u2019t get elected without don\u2019t like Trump. So it has been a stonewall. If you\u2019re frustrated about this &#8212; and I\u2019ll tell you, I am. I\u2019m livid. It was seeable. I mean, this behavior by the House and Senate Republican leadership isn\u2019t anything new. All you had to do was to listen what they were saying during the campaign.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-247075\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/650-091417-Trump-Melania.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/650-091417-Trump-Melania.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/650-091417-Trump-Melania-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>They didn\u2019t want Trump to win. They didn\u2019t think he was gonna win. They never thought they would be in this position. They may not even like being in this position because they don\u2019t want this kind of pressure on \u2019em. They don\u2019t want to have to move his agenda. The Republicans in Washington are identical with the Democrats when it comes to the big issue, and that\u2019s immigration. Both parties want amnesty. Both parties want it now. They want comprehensive immigration reform, and they want open borders.<\/p>\n<p>And the people that give the money are the ones that call the shots in politics. So the Republicans are being loyal to their donors. They\u2019re being loyal to the paymasters, if you will. And it\u2019s squandering an opportunity. I have to tell you, this guy from Coronado you just heard? Every Trump person that I\u2019ve talked to &#8212; everyone from every walk of life &#8212; has said pretty much the same thing. If Trump has to work with Democrats to get some of what he wants done, so be it. I haven\u2019t run into anybody&#8230; Now, and this is purely anecdotal, and I don\u2019t talk to a lot of people.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m just telling you in my universe, people that I know who voted for Trump and want the Trump agenda or most of it, I don\u2019t know anybody who is content for nothing to happen, status quo while the Republicans and Trump bicker. I don\u2019t know anybody who wants any more of this. Trump was elected&#8230; Again, he had probably the biggest mandate to do things of any recent president because of the specifics of his agenda and his campaign. So many times a day he announced what he was gonna do. So he was elected, he won; therefore, he\u2019s got a mandate.<\/p>\n<p>And his party is not assisting and not helping, and they\u2019re even violating promises they made for seven years on the repeal and replace Obamacare. And I\u2019ll bet you there are a lot of Trump people out there who say, &#8220;If he has to work with Democrats to get what he wants done, then so be it. Even when Trump did the first deal with Chuck and Nancy on expanding the debt limit &#8212; and he talked about extending the debt limit forever \u2019cause it was such a good thing, Trump did&#8230; And there were a couple other elements in that first deal with Trump and Chuck and Nancy.<\/p>\n<p>I had people saying, &#8220;You know what? I love it!&#8221; I\u2019m talking about rock-ribbed, lifetime Republicans who said to me, &#8220;I love Trump sticking it to Mitch and Paul, but I not sure I like it being done this way,&#8221; meaning doing deals with Democrats &#8212; Chuck and Nancy &#8212; on expanding spending, expanding government. But the anti-Republican leadership sentiment among people who want Trump to succeed is palpable. I think the people are fed up with everything being statistic, no movement, nothing happening.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re fed up with every attempt that Trump makes to move it forward being thwarted by his own party. So the Democrats are coming along, and Chuck and Nancy have made it look like, &#8220;Hey, we\u2019re willing to work with the guy. Hey, we\u2019ll help him get what he wants, but it\u2019s gotta be what we want.&#8221; That\u2019s where we are right now. So they struck a deal. Chuck and Nancy go out there tell the media, &#8220;Hey, we got rid of the wall! Trump\u2019s joining us on the DACA kids and we got rid of the wall.&#8221; They report that; everybody believes it. Then Trump and Sarah Huckabee Sanders say, &#8220;No, no, no. That didn\u2019t happen.&#8221; Now everybody\u2019s wondering, \u2019cause everybody believes the first thing that they hear.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Ken in Marble Falls, Texas. How are you, sir?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m doing fine, sir. It\u2019s an honor. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019m glad you called. Thank you very much.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I was &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Wait, wait, wait, wait. Hang on&#8230; Hey, Ken. Ken, hang on just a second. (sigh) Hang on just a second.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Certainly.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-246349\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/FB-090717-Ryan-McConnell-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/FB-090717-Ryan-McConnell-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/FB-090717-Ryan-McConnell-1-300x158.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>RUSH: Yeah, we don\u2019t&#8230; I appreciate it. I just got a sound bite. Paul Ryan says there\u2019s no deal. There is no deal. Now, this is interesting \u2019cause Ryan&#8230; (chuckling) You know, Republicans run the Congress, and all this has been going on without \u2019em! Here\u2019s Trump and Chuck You and Nancy saying, &#8220;We got a deal with Trump! There\u2019s not gonna be a wall and we\u2019re get the DREAMers,&#8221; and Ryan and McConnell said (stammering), &#8220;What &#8212; what &#8212; what &#8212; what &#8212; what &#8212; what? We run this place!&#8221; So Ryan went out there today at his weekly press briefing Q&amp;A. &#8220;Mr. Speaker, have you asked the president to at least check with you before he makes an agreement with the Democrats?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RYAN: There\u2019s no &#8220;agreement.&#8221; The president and the chief of staff called me from Air Force One today to discuss what was discussed &#8212; and it was a discussion, not an agreement or negotiation. We need border security and enforcement as part of any agreement. I think that\u2019s something the Democrats are beginning to understand.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. No deal! The guy that runs the House of Representatives (laughing) finally spoke up. &#8220;Hey, I called the White House to find out what\u2019s going on,&#8221; which means they didn\u2019t call him. (laughing) Is that right? Is that what he said here? No, they called him. He said the staff called him. Okay. Can you imagine you\u2019re these guys and all this happens? You get up too like everybody else did and you find out Chuck and Nancy are saying that Trump threw the wall away and you call Mitch. &#8220;You know anything about this?&#8221; &#8220;No, I don\u2019t know anything about it.&#8221; &#8220;Elaine, do you know anything about this?&#8221; &#8220;No, Mitch, I don\u2019t.&#8221; &#8220;Paul, do you know&#8230;?&#8221; &#8220;No.&#8221; &#8220;Does any Republican know anything about this?&#8221; &#8220;No.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So does that change what you were gonna say, Ken?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: No, actually. I believe that those of us that voted for President Trump because of who he was will not be dissuaded by the media or those that think they voted for him just to vote against somebody. I truthfully think he will drain the swamp, and he\u2019s showing people that the swamp has nothing to do with party affiliations. He\u2019s showing both sides have no core beliefs and they\u2019ll turn on a dime on anything.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Ehhh&#8230; (chuckling) It\u2019s a challenging concept. The left has core beliefs, Ken.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, ideology.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah. They\u2019re not yours or mine, but they\u2019ve got core beliefs, and they are damn loyal to \u2019em. But I get what you think.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-247095 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/310-Ryan.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"310\" height=\"310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/310-Ryan.jpg 310w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/310-Ryan-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/310-Ryan-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 310px) 100vw, 310px\" \/>CALLER: But my point &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You think Trump has the ability to prevail against them while making them think they\u2019re winning?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes, sir! I think he\u2019s already playing both sides against each other, and they don\u2019t even realize it. He\u2019s a lot smarter than these politicians we have.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right. What was your first thought when you first heard today that Trump had negotiated away the wall in exchange for letting the DACA people stay in the country?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, when I first heard it, it came from the media so I assumed it was a lie and that they were coloring it to fit their liberal agenda.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I do not believe he will give away the farm. (chuckling)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. You really thought that? I know. That\u2019s a smart thing to say; that\u2019s what I would say. But did you&#8230;? There was no fear? You didn\u2019t have even a flash of temporary, momentary panic?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: No, sir. I really do believe that he\u2019s playing them.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right. I have yet&#8230; Thank you, Ken. I appreciate call. Folks, I have yet&#8230; My memory could be a little wavering on this, but I can\u2019t recall fielding a call yet from a legitimate Trumpist who feels betrayed. I know they\u2019re out there, but I haven\u2019t had them call. Most of the people that have called here have echoed this. The two that we\u2019ve had today and all the ones on previous occasions, their faith in Trump is total, and it\u2019s unshakable &#8212; at least, as of now &#8212; and they are not at all worried about this.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Angie in Dayton. Your turn. What do you think about all this?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, first, I\u2019m not a Trumpster. I voted for him, but I\u2019ll get to my point. I think that he\u2019s always three steps ahead of Pelosi, the Democrats, and the Republicans. So I think this was a power play that he did.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You think this is a grand Trump strategy in other words?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I do. They always wanted to be in the limelight. They never want to be outgunned. They always want to be the center of attention. So if he moves to Pelosi and they start to work with him a little bit, he\u2019s pushing others toward him as well who never wanted to work with him to begin with.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, this is an interesting point. So you were kind of iffy on Trump, you voted for him anyway, but you\u2019re not a big-time supporter. Now you\u2019ve become one because you think he\u2019s three moves ahead of everybody?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, I became a Trump supporter after the Billy Bob or Billy Bush incident, actually.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: After it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes, I did.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: After it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-247104\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpMediaWall-of-trump-C-030116.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpMediaWall-of-trump-C-030116.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpMediaWall-of-trump-C-030116-300x135.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/>RUSH: God, I love you even more! Could you walk us through that process? How in the world did you become &#8212; \u2019cause this is in total, total opposition to what the Drive-By Media thinks people should think and how they should have reacted. The Billy Bush episode moved you closer to Trump. How? Why?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, I have always had a lot of male friends. I\u2019ve heard a lot of male talk, and believe me, women are just the same, and I believe they just threw this out of proportion. There are women out there who do this, as men who are the groupies, men and women and groupies, and there are women who allow this. And to think that, oh, my gosh, men don\u2019t talk like this, women don\u2019t do this, women don\u2019t talk like this, men aren\u2019t groupies. It\u2019s absurd, and I think it was sort of nitpicky, and it threw me &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It\u2019s exactly my point. That is how people talk. You\u2019ve heard it. And women, too! We\u2019ve all heard that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, Rush, I had one more thing, one more comment about what you said yesterday or the other day.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It had to do with she doesn\u2019t understand why white women did not vote for her. And I have an idea why. That suburban women, whenever she\u2019s telling or they\u2019re telling everyone that white men are homophobic or the problem with America or racist and everything else under the sun, and then they expect us to vote for her when she\u2019s sort of criticizing our husbands or our sons or our brothers or our fathers.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, that\u2019s actually very, very shrewd of you. I really am glad I held on with you, Angie. Thank you very much. I\u2019m gonna expand on your points here, but did you get that, folks? She wanted to weigh in on the point yesterday, Hillary\u2019s out there saying that &#8212; you remember what Hillary said. Hillary said that white women did not vote for her because their husbands told them not to. You remember that? And we all said, &#8220;Wait a minute. What happened to feminism? Who are all of these docile women who are only doing what their husbands and boyfriends tell \u2019em to do?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But Hillary said that. White women didn\u2019t vote for her because their husbands didn\u2019t like Hillary and their husbands are telling them. And Angie\u2019s point is, no, Hillary, you\u2019re out there calling white guys the problem with America. You\u2019re calling \u2019em racists. You\u2019re calling \u2019em homophobes. You\u2019re calling \u2019em bigots. The only white guys you seem to like are not the kind of guys we married. So to hell with you, Hillary. We\u2019re not gonna sit here, we don\u2019t have any solidarity with you just because you\u2019re a woman.<\/p>\n<p>This is why, folks, on a program like this, you actually end up talking to the people who make the country work. And another thing that she said that I think is very insightful. And I do love the fact that after the Billy Bush thing she glommed onto Trump even tighter, \u2019cause she knows that\u2019s how people talk, women too. But the point, she thinks Trump is three steps ahead of these people. Now, stick with me on this. Most people, even a lot of Trumpists, but not as many, the conventional wisdom is that Trump as the outsider doesn\u2019t know what\u2019s going on. That the inside-the-Beltway culture is special and it\u2019s so unique and it\u2019s so tiny that nobody that\u2019s not part of it could ever, ever function. Nobody who\u2019s not in the establishment could possibly understand it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-247105\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpOval-Office-Trump-ArtOfTheDeal-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpOval-Office-Trump-ArtOfTheDeal-1.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpOval-Office-Trump-ArtOfTheDeal-1-300x138.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/>And so they have an arrogance that leads to a condescension against people, which leads the inside-the-Beltway, the establishment, both parties, to think of Trump as no different than his voters, a bumpkin idiot. And that leads them to believe that they\u2019re gonna be able to run rings around him, and he\u2019s not even gonna know it\u2019s happening. &#8220;He may have built buildings and he may have written The Art of the Deal, but he can\u2019t do what we did. He can\u2019t even understand what we do because he\u2019s too stupid.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, they may not say it that way, but I guarantee you they have that attitude. These are arogant people. They\u2019re very exclusive. It is a very elite, unique group, in their own minds, and they do tell themselves they\u2019re special and they\u2019re different and they\u2019re better. And Trump represents somebody from the wrong side of the tracks accidentally stumbling into the clubhouse here, and nobody threw him out.<\/p>\n<p>So they think they\u2019re dealing with a bumpkin and an idiot that they can make mincemeat of. The deep state thinks that. I\u2019ll betcha some of the people that Trump picked in his cabinet think that. Some of the &#8212; well, I\u2019ll leave it at that. So they have this overall belief that Trump\u2019s out of his league, essentially. So Chuck and Nancy go to the White House for dinner, and the immediate belief they had is, &#8220;Oh, they\u2019re gonna smoke him. This is not even a fair fight. Trump doesn\u2019t even know what\u2019s coming.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Whereas Angie just said in her opinion, it\u2019s Chuck and Nancy that don\u2019t know what\u2019s coming, \u2019cause it\u2019s Chuck and Nancy that have never dealt with somebody like Trump, because they\u2019re the ones living in a cocoon and they\u2019re the ones that don\u2019t know what life is really like in the business world. And I guarantee you they don\u2019t. Businesspeople, to Chuck and Nancy, are donors. Businesspeople, to Chuck and Nancy, are the golden goose. They\u2019ll never run out of money. We\u2019ll keep taxing \u2019em. We\u2019ll keep asking for donations.<\/p>\n<p>But Angie\u2019s view is that Trump, as a real guy who\u2019s done real things and done them very well, can run rings around them but is not going to make it look like he does because part of the trick is to play dumb, out of place, or what have you. The point is, she has complete faith that whatever\u2019s going on here, that it\u2019s Chuck and Nancy who are being suckered; they just don\u2019t know it yet. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if a bunch of Trump people have that view. And, remember, she was not an original Trumpist. She was dragged kicking and screaming to Trump after the Billy Bush tape.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: This is Tammy in Naples. Hey, Naples. Tammy, it\u2019s great to hear from you. How are you doing?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Trump was just up the street at the mobile home park. But I called to say that my whole entire family, my brother, my husband\u2019s family up in Pennsylvania, we all love Trump, we all trust Trump, half of us don\u2019t even pay attention to the things he does because we know that he has a plan and I don\u2019t think for one second he\u2019s ever gonna lose that base unless he does something really outrageous. You know, he\u2019s kicking out the criminals. There\u2019s less people coming in.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Tammy, time is short and I need to ask you a question. Have you ever trusted a politician before like you trust Donald Trump?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-247138\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpDrainSwamp.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpDrainSwamp.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/TrumpDrainSwamp-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>CALLER: Not for one second.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Sounds like it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m a hundred thousand percent for him, and so is everybody I know. I\u2019m sure there\u2019s people, but the ones that really know that he loves people, I really believe he loves people, I really believe he sincerely tries to help people.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right, Tammy, thanks.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: If the Democrats had treated him nice from the beginning, he would have been working with them from day one.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: That\u2019s a good point. Good point. I gotta go on that one, but she said something, we gotta talk about this because this is why the media thinks that you Trump people are a bunch of cultists.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Donna in Frederick, Maryland, your turn. I\u2019m glad you waited. Welcome to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. My pleasure. As a listener, I often feel like I\u2019m faced with the ultimate challenge because the news sometimes leaves us dazed and confused and I\u2019d even venture to say somewhat feeling gullible and naive, I guess hence the very definition of fake news. And when I hear about, you know, scary deals with devil Democrats, I think it requires a certain amount of discernment. And it really does, I think, put emphasis on your statement where they want to divide voters from Trump because the left is banking on the effectiveness of their propaganda.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Exactly, because everything else they\u2019ve tried to throw at him hasn\u2019t worked. We had the story in the Politico, they\u2019ve done their market research or focus groups. None of this stuff, the Russian collusion, none of it is working. It just bounces off Trump. They\u2019re frustrated. That\u2019s why they\u2019re focusing on trying to separate Trump\u2019s base from Trump. That\u2019s the objective now. And it has been for really the whole period of time, but now they\u2019re just changing their tactics about bringing it back. But it\u2019s not working on you, it doesn\u2019t sound like.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: No, it is not. I thought about it long and hard. If anything, it made me want to shift further to the right, not to the left, by any means.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You\u2019re not the first person I\u2019ve heard say that, either. That none of this that\u2019s designed to make you distrust Trump and eventually abandon Trump, it isn\u2019t making you more inclined to join the opposition. In other words, there\u2019s a backlash. In other words, you might say it is backfiring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Every Trump person that I&#039;ve talked to &#8212; everyone from every walk of life &#8212; has said pretty much the same thing.
