SCHUMER: Instead of dividing, instead of politicizing, do something real.<\/p>\nRUSH: In the last 15 years, we have admitted over two million people to the U.S., and mostly from Muslim countries via the Diversity Visa Program. That doesn\u2019t count their parents and their aunts and uncles and cousins and anybody else who, with forged documents to come in via chain migration, who then in turn invite their relatives and friends into the U.S. (chuckles) It\u2019s a, quote, unquote, “great” system. And it\u2019s, “Wow, look at the diversity it\u2019s given us! Isn\u2019t it great? Look at all the diversity we have!” So President Trump tweeted about this, zeroing in on Senator Chuck You Schumer, who extolled the virtues of this program for years. Chuck You Schumer on the Senate floor reacted today…<\/p>\n
SCHUMER: I\u2019ve seen the tweets from President Trump. The contrast between President Bush\u2019s actions after 9\/11 and President Trump\u2019s actions this morning could not be starker. President Trump,where is your leadership? I have always believed that immigration is good for America. President Trump, instead of politicizing and dividing America, which he always seems to do at times of national tragedy, should be bringing us together and focusing on the real solution: anti-terrorism funding, which he proposed to cut —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Are you kidding me?<\/p>\n
SCHUMER: — in his most recent budget.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Money?<\/p>\n
SCHUMER: Instead of dividing, instead of politicizing, do something real.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Senator Schumer, you own this guy. Senator Schumer, this guy is yours. He wouldn\u2019t be here if not for the bill you sponsored. Leadership? Deflecting blame from where it ought to be placed: Yourself? Clamor for leadership?<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: Chuck Schumer is pathetic. Chuck Schumer politicizes every gun shooting, every gun event, every shooting. It doesn\u2019t take him five seconds. Politicizes every one. He\u2019ll go to the nearest camera or microphone or head to the floor of the United States Senate and politicize everything where a gun is involved. And now he\u2019s upset, righteously indignant, that Donald Trump has the temerity to remind everybody that this guy and millions others potentially like him are in this country because of legislation Chuck Schumer energetically and thoroughly supported. The Diversity Visa lottery.<\/p>\n
Who are we trying to impress? Who are we trying to assuage our guilt with? It\u2019d be one thing if this program was initiated after 9\/11, but it goes back to 1990. This goes back to George H. W. Bush, Bush 41. I think what\u2019s going on — by the way, I just watched during the break here, we were rolling on it, so we\u2019ll have excerpts, Trump just unloaded on this whole program and how stupid it is and how there have been efforts underway to change it. He\u2019s met resistance and opposition. He pledged to continue to get rid of it, and he called out the people who are in support of it.<\/p>\n
What he said is exactly why he was elected president, exactly why the bond that exists between Trump and his supporters will not be broken. So Trump accurately points at Chuck Schumer and everybody else who had anything to do with this cockamamie program. And there\u2019s Schumer running around like he\u2019s profoundly offended, why, how dare you politicize this. From the guy who, again, politicizes every hurricane, every gun crime. Every mass shooting that he can find to politicize, he does it!<\/p>\n
And he politicizes always by blaming Republicans, conservatives, you name it. Don\u2019t even wait for the facts. Don\u2019t even wait for any evidence. It\u2019s just a knee-jerk reaction. Schumer\u2019s not used to being called out like this. The left is not used to being called out. They get to politicize whatever they want, the media picks it up and runs with it or the media gives them orders that shows them how to do it then Chuck Schumer comes out and does it. I still think the media is running the show. But in this case, it doesn\u2019t really matter. Trump fires back, and these people are not accustomed to being hit.<\/p>\n

So now Schumer goes (imitating Schumer), “Where is your leadership? What do you think you\u2019re doing? You\u2019re not helping at all. Your actions could not be starker between the way George W. Bush handled post-9\/11, the way you\u2019re handling this. I\u2019ve always believed immigration\u2019s good for America,” said Chuck You. “Trump, instead of politicizing and dividing, why don\u2019t you show some leadership and spend more money, get creative with funding.”<\/p>\n
Andrew Cuomo is also upset. This is Fredo\u2019s older brother. He was upset during a Q&A at police headquarters today. A reporter said, “What do you think of Trump\u2019s remarks about extreme vetting and what implications this will have for immigration policy?”<\/p>\n
CUOMO: The president\u2019s tweets, I think, were not helpful.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Really?<\/p>\n
CUOMO: I don\u2019t think they were factual.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Really?<\/p>\n
CUOMO: I think they tended to point fingers and politicize the —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Really?<\/p>\n
CUOMO: — situation.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Is that right?<\/p>\n
CUOMO: He was referring back to a immigration policy that dealt with a lottery and blaming people who passed that — that immigration policy. His tweet wasn\u2019t even accurate, as far as I\u2019m concerned. That was a bipartisan law that was passed that had basically no relevance to the facts of this situation.<\/p>\n
