<\/p>\nRUSH: From the New York Times that Mueller subpoenas Trump Organization. This is the Trump Tower company. This is the real estate and building company. This has nothing to do with the campaign, nothing to do with collusion, nothing to do with the Russians and elections.<\/p>\n
Is Mueller trying to prove that he is conducting a witch-hunt? What in the world does the Trump Organization have to do with the Trump campaign colluding with the Russian government? And I want to read to you something here from the New York Times piece that\u2019s just leaked here. It\u2019s from Maggie Haberman. Well, it hasn\u2019t leaked. It\u2019s published. It\u2019s two people on Mueller\u2019s team that are doing the leaking. The order, the subpoenaing of documents from the Trump Organization is the first known time “of the special counsel demanding records directly related to President Trump\u2019s businesses, bringing the investigation closer to the president.”<\/p>\n
Come on! We knew this was gonna happen. Mueller himself said so, or his leakers. We knew months ago that Trump\u2019s businesses were targeted! There aren\u2019t any limits on this guy! There is no crime that he has been charged with investigating. He\u2019s been given a free rein to go find a crime anywhere he wants!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Also from the New York Times piece: “The breadth of the subpoena was not clear, nor was it clear why Mr. Mueller issued it instead of simply asking for the documents from the company, an umbrella organization that oversees Mr. Trump\u2019s business ventures.” Well, it\u2019s because Mueller\u2019s fishing.<\/p>\n
But here\u2019s my question. We\u2019ve been told as long as I have been aware of the name Robert Mueller, we are told that Mr. Mueller is a man of impeccable character, a man of refined tastes, a man of immense sophistication and qualification. The man was a judge, he ran the FBI, he is a fair person. He\u2019s an all-round good guy. And in terms of people in Washington when it comes to the integrity, there are none with any more integrity than Robert Mueller.<\/p>\n
Well, I\u2019m sorry, but that doesn\u2019t fit with what we see this man doing. And what I ask myself is, does Mueller ever get up and ask himself, “What the hell am I doing? I don\u2019t have a crime here. I don\u2019t have any evidence of a crime.” Does Mueller ever get up or does anybody on his team, do they get up in the morning and they ever ask themselves, are we really doing the right thing here in seeking to destroy an American citizen whose only audacious behavior is winning the presidency?<\/p>\n
I mean, what did Donald Trump really ever do to these people? Except come in and upset their established order of things. Now, I know this sounds naive. But I\u2019m telling you, I have a conscience. And if I were given the power to go out and use the full powers of the United States Department of Justice to destroy someone who didn\u2019t deserve it, I couldn\u2019t do it. And I guess that\u2019s why I\u2019ll never be a member of the swamp or any other establishment.<\/p>\n
Now, Donald Trump may not be these guys\u2019 definition of a fine guy. I don\u2019t know. I just know that Trump is not himself a conformist, and he\u2019s not a member of any establishment, the kind of guy that\u2019s not allowed in them, elite club, so Trump is basically made his own. He\u2019s created his own elite organization, his own sphere of friends with his own dominance and influence within that sphere. And he succeeded immensely, wildly at it.<\/p>\n
But these people are wandering down empty halls. There isn\u2019t any evidence for anything that we\u2019ve been told Trump did. In fact, it\u2019s just the exact opposite. If there was collusion — we established this yesterday — if there\u2019s any collusion, it\u2019s with Barack Obama and Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele. Oh, and, by the way, let\u2019s add one other thing to this. These two clowns, Isikoff and David Corn, what have they done?<\/p>\n
Look at this story. “Trump Dossier Authors Doubt Their Most Explosive Allegation.” The hell you say! The Trump dossier author, Christopher Steele, doesn\u2019t think the golden showers event happened? Why is it that we\u2019re only learning this a year or so into this cockamamie investigation? The golden shower story is the impetus for all of this, that Trump was in Moscow, learned that he was staying in the same hotel room as Barack Obama and Michelle and so hired some prostitutes to come over and urinate on the bed.<\/p>\n
Trump was in that room a total of six hours, 1 a.m. to 7 a.m. He wouldn\u2019t have had time anyway. Didn\u2019t do it! But now these two guys have known this for the entire time they\u2019ve been researching this book! These two clowns are no different than these journalists who embed themselves with campaigns and learn all kinds of things that they save until after the election! Things that would have been of relevance before the election!<\/p>\n
They hide stuff and they save it for their book so that they can get rich on exclusive information, and yet they are reporters of the highest order. And now these two guys, Corn and Isikoff have done the same thing. They have known for however along they\u2019ve been writing the book that the golden showers story is bogus and that Steele doesn\u2019t even believe it. And only now do people learn it when their book is about to be published. Well, that golden showers story has been the fuel that has rocketed this whole investigation.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-021918-Mueller.jpg\")
And now we find out that Steele doesn\u2019t even believe it! The author of the dossier doesn\u2019t even believe it! “Trump Dossier Authors Doubt Their Most Explosive Allegation.” Because they can\u2019t corroborate what the sources are saying! So how does Mueller get up every day? If he\u2019s this fine man, if he has this impeccable integrity, if he has a sterling reputation, then how does he get up every day with 16 other cronies and actually set about destroying another man whose only crime is winning the presidency and defeating Mueller and his buddies?<\/p>\n
All I can think of is what the clown ass Joe McCarthy once during the McCarthy hearing said, “Sir, have you no decency,” after McCarthy wouldn\u2019t stop accusing everybody in the government of being a communist. I never can remember this guy\u2019s name. But he\u2019s very famous because he shut McCarthy down and everybody hated McCarthy. “Have you no decency, sir?”<\/p>\n
Now, folks, I don\u2019t mean to be gesticulating wildly. It\u2019s a serious question I have. Now we look at this Mueller subpoena — If he\u2019s a fine guy — I can understand if Mueller was a creep. I could understand if Mueller\u2019s reputation was other than what it is, but we\u2019re told this guy\u2019s the best of the best. We\u2019re told this guy, nobody could hold a candle to him in terms of honesty and integrity and character. Well, then how does somebody with all of those fine traits even participate in a sham like this?<\/p>\n
No, I can answer it. I know the answer. It\u2019s the establishment, Trump\u2019s an outsider, and that\u2019s all it takes. They\u2019ve gotta send a signal that people like Trump are never, ever again to even try something like this because if you do, we will destroy you. Journalism today and for the longest time has, in part, been about destroying people. And in many cases, for no reason other than these people are disliked by journalists. Not because they\u2019ve hurt people. It is not because they\u2019ve committed crimes.<\/p>\n
And it\u2019s the same thing here with Trump. If there were evidence, folks, if there was even the tiniest bit of evidence that I actually could be convinced that Trump was working with the Russians to monkey with our elections — I don\u2019t even believe that\u2019s possible, number one. I believe Obama when he said (paraphrasing), “Our elections are too broad, they\u2019re too wide, they\u2019re too complex, they\u2019re too spread out.” It\u2019s not possible for this allegation to have actually happened.<\/p>\n
But even if I believed there was evidence that Trump had tried it, I would have a whole different attitude about this. But I don\u2019t believe that there\u2019s a scintilla of evidence, and the evidence points the other way. I understand they have to protect themselves. I understand they have to protect Hillary and so forth and protect Obama, which is what this is really all about.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s Obama who hired Fusion GPS to go after Romney. It\u2019s Obama who was spying on domestic opponents of his Iran deal. And it was that program that showed them they could do it, get away with it, they could actually use journalists as weapons, the administration could. And so they\u2019re doing it here with Trump and the 2016 election. And it\u2019s all originated from the annals of community organizing as and written and led by Barack Obama.<\/p>\n
We know that election was rigged, the Democrat primaries. We know that Hillary Clinton colluded with the Russians because she commissioned that dossier. But how did Hillary find out about Fusion GPS? She could have only learned about them from Obama, who also hired them to go spy on Romney in 2012.<\/p>\n
How do these guys keep doing this? There\u2019s nothing here. This is perfectly obvious, a mission to destroy Donald Trump for the sake of destroying Donald Trump. Because they don\u2019t think he\u2019s qualified, because they don\u2019t like his taste, because they don\u2019t like his lack of sophistication, because he\u2019s not one of them, because he runs the risk of outperforming them, because he runs the risk of blowing up the game they\u2019re running, that only they are qualified to run this country.<\/p>\n
But this doesn\u2019t fit with a man of the impeccable reputation that Robert Mueller has. So I\u2019m left to conclude he doesn\u2019t have all this the great character. He doesn\u2019t have unimpeachable integrity. That he is not honest and forthright above all else, that he\u2019s nothing more than your average, ordinary establishment partisan like all the rest of them are. And the idea that he\u2019s a cut above and he\u2019s got this integrity that\u2019s unassailable, this character that nobody else can approach, this decency and honesty that is unique, BS.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s all part of scam to make sure nobody questions what he comes up with. Comey wanted this guy appointed. Comey found a way to make it happen. It has happened, and they\u2019re gloating and they\u2019re gleeful about it each and every day, Comey and the rest of these people that have secured the appointment of Mueller. I couldn\u2019t do it do it unless I was someplace where I was told to do it or else.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
RUSH:\u00a0Here\u2019s what I think Mueller is doing, because I know that they don\u2019t have anything on collusion, and now with Corn and Isikoff admitting that this idiot Steele doesn\u2019t even believe the golden showers story, they don\u2019t have anything on collusion. And that\u2019s why Rosenstein didn\u2019t limit it to that. That\u2019s why Rosenstein didn\u2019t charge Mueller with a specific crime because they want these people gone.<\/p>\n
They want Trump gone. They want everybody anything to do with Trump gone. They all do. Everybody at the State Department, everybody in this immediate FBI circle with Rosenstein, Murphy and McKinnon, the Republican establishment community, Republican consultants, they want Trump gone. Mueller is the guy to do it. Mueller is carrying the water for the entire establishment in getting Trump gone. And they don\u2019t care how they do it. And I think their objective is to ruin him.<\/p>\n
And these requests, the subpoena for documents from the Trump Organization, I ask you again, what has that to do with the campaign and with collusion and with the Russians? They\u2019ve already been looking into Trump business in Russia with the Miss, what is it, USA, whatever his pageant is.<\/p>\n
Do you all remember during the early days of the campaign there was news that Trump, in a tax return something like 20 years ago, took a $900 million deduction that was granted and survived an audit by the IRS? Now, I forget the details. It had to do with losses that he had incurred in that year in building things. It was around 900 or $920 million deduction. I\u2019ll never forget when it was reported because most people will never come close to ever having that in a lifetime, and to have a guy personally write that much off?<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-019.jpg\")
And so the tentacles of class envy surface. “Oh, my God! See, that\u2019s what we mean, Mabel, the rich get away with everything, writing off $920 million? Meanwhile, we can\u2019t do anything.” And the Democrats fan the flames and there was a big storm it. Well, I happen to think, since they don\u2019t have any evidence that Trump did anything and they don\u2019t have any evidence that Carter Page did anything, and Carter Page was named the man the original FISA warrant was secured to spy on — oh, by the way, everybody so worried that Andrew McCabe might lose his pension if Sessions fires him before Sunday. Anybody worried that Michael Flynn\u2019s lost his house in this absolute atrocity?<\/p>\n
Michael Flynn, who the FBI didn\u2019t even believe had lied to them, has lost his house and had to plead guilty in order to pay legal fees. And, meanwhile, everybody\u2019s worried about poor McCabe and he might not get his pension if Jeff Sessions fires him before Friday. This investigation of Trump is damaging and ruining a lot of people.<\/p>\n
Manafort, the judge told him the other day, “Based on the charges that you have, dude, you could be spending the rest of your life in prison.” For what? Well, whatever Manafort did, it had nothing to do with the Trump campaign. Anyway, I think Mueller wants that $920 million back. I think Mueller wants to prove that that was a faulty deduction. I think that they want to go back, they want to get Trump\u2019s tax returns because they want to nullify that $900 million deduction, and then they want to collect 20 years of interest and penalties and wipe Trump out.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t know anything. I\u2019m like you, I take all of this in, and I ask myself, “What the hell is going on here?” And I know that that $920 million deduction that Trump took 20 years ago — might be 22 or 23 years ago now — that\u2019s gotta be seen as a giant target for these people. And if they can get that deduction ruled illegal and say, “You owe that money back, Mr. Trump. Oh, by the way, there\u2019s 20 years of penalties and interest.”<\/p>\n
They\u2019re not gonna stop. And, remember, we\u2019re talking about the man with the most impeccable reputation in all of Washington. A man with the highest integrity. His integrity and reputation are such that you can\u2019t even approach it. There\u2019s nobody in Washington that can even stand in the same light as Robert Mueller when it comes to honesty, character, integrity, truth, and justice and the American way. He owns it. So we\u2019ve been told.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
