They are attempting to establish a narrative that Trump doesn\u2019t care about people in duress.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re attempting to establish a narrative that Trump doesn\u2019t care about Puerto Rico or the people in Puerto Rico, and they\u2019re trying to recreate what they created during Hurricane Katrina and George W. Bush. Again, that\u2019s all they\u2019ve got is to go back to their greatest hits and try to play \u2019em again. Instead of New Orleans Katrina, this is hurricane whatever it was and Puerto Rico.

When Fox sends Geraldo somewhere, death somewhere has happened. You make book on it. And he was down there saying it\u2019s Katrina. It\u2019s all made up. It\u2019s the media hoping that what they report becomes true. They\u2019re trying to make it true. They\u2019re all-in on it. And it isn\u2019t going to work, either.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder how long it\u2019s gonna take for them to realize that the greatest hits from their playbook will work against a Romney or a George W. Bush or anybody else in the insider elites, but it\u2019s not gonna work against Trump. How long is it gonna take \u2019em to figure this out?<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: This is Russ from Kansas City.  Great to have you, Russ.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Good afternoon.  Give me 11 seconds.  I\u2019ve got just a few things. I\u2019m in earnest agreement with you Rush.  Number one, President Trump knows exactly what he is doing and saying.  He has a war room, I believe, so to speak, and a flowchart on everything that he says with an anticipated outcome to a 95% factor.  President Trump says things in public that we, his base, have had to say in private for at least the last eight years.  He is our voice.  His comments are proactive instead of reactive over 90% of the time.  <\/p>\n<p>I believe he has a storyboard of tweets all ready to go at least 30 days in advance. All he\u2019s waiting for is a Dem to ask for it, and he will deliver.  President Truman and President Trump &#8212; outside the first four letters of last name being the same &#8212; are very similar in decision-making.  They tell the truth. No guts, no glory.  Neither lie.  They tell the truth; that\u2019s why it\u2019s so easy to keep up with them.  They don\u2019t diddle daddle. Puerto Rico, I think, is a little bit different thing as far as sending help, because it\u2019s not a state, it\u2019s a territory, and they have massive financial problems that could affect other states.  I\u2019m not real sure about that.  I need to do more research on it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Puerto Rico, you\u2019re right.  Everybody understands.  This is why the media\u2019s flailing away and missing big time.  Puerto Rico is not a state, and there aren\u2019t any pictures of nobody helping down there.  They don\u2019t know anything other than their greatest hits in the playbook.  And all they know how to do is recycle \u2019em.  Katrina worked against Bush, so it\u2019s automatically gonna work against Trump.  No.  It won\u2019t.  They still haven\u2019t come to grips &#8212; and I don\u2019t think they ever will &#8212; who Trump is, but more importantly, who and what Trump is not.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: In addition to the media desperately trying to make everybody believe that Trump&#039;s voter base is abandoning him because of this return, the election last night in Alabama, they&#039;re all trying to say that San Juan and Puerto Rico is Trump&#039;s Katrina.
