RUSH: I can\u2019t emphasize this enough. I had a conversation with Mr. Snerdley. He came in here today, “You know what? This thing with these Democrats going ape over the question on the new census form about citizenship, you know what that\u2019s doing?”<\/p>\n

I said, “What?”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“That is exposing for everybody the truth of what you\u2019ve been saying for the last 20 years about this. You\u2019ve been telling people the Democrats only care about this because they want more voters and they want more dependence on the government and they want more people that can\u2019t do anything for themselves, so they\u2019re gonna always vote Democrat.”<\/p>\n

I said, “Do you really think a lot of people don\u2019t see that yet?”<\/p>\n

“You\u2019d be surprised. You\u2019d be surprised.” Snerdley said to me “most people, Rush, even when they hear you say it, they don\u2019t want to believe it. They want to believe that we\u2019re opening the borders for compassion reasons. That we\u2019re opening the borders to the poor and the downtrodden, the homeless, the hungry, the thirsty, and they want to think that they\u2019re supporting good people, and they\u2019re helping people in poverty, and they\u2019re helping poor people. And when you came around and say the Democrats don\u2019t care about people, all they want to do is register more voters, they don\u2019t want to hear it.”<\/p>\n

I said, “You have to be kidding me. You think there\u2019s a sizable number of people who reject the truth about this when they hear it and instead retreat to their comfort zone of ‘it\u2019s only for compassion\u2019?”<\/p>\n

“You\u2019d be surprised.” Well, if Snerdley happens to be right about this, this is icing on the cake, because this fight over something as simple as declaring you are a citizen on a census form, that the left is gonna go to the mat opposing that is gonna wake a whole lot of people up. And they might not run around saying, “You know what? Rush Limbaugh has been telling us.” They may not say that, but they\u2019re gonna realize that the Democrats have been scamming them and lying to \u2019em. ‘Cause this isn\u2019t about compassion.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s wrong with knowing whether they\u2019re illegal or not? Knowing that they\u2019re illegal just means we have to help them. Why are the Democrats opposed to that? He thinks that\u2019s gonna be a common reaction rooted in common sense and that when people see it, they\u2019re gonna have no choice but to conclude the Democrats have been misleading them and even lying to them. And there may be a lot of truth to that.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t care where the help comes from. If that\u2019s what it takes — and I frankly think it\u2019d be great if the left acts as their own detriment here. And this is gonna be a fight. They\u2019re gonna fight this like you haven\u2019t seen anything fought. They cannot — (interruption) What? Oh, why do they not want it known who is and who isn\u2019t a citizen? There\u2019s one primary reason and a number of others that you would call ancillary.<\/p>\n

What is the census? Among many other things, it counts the number of people who live here and tells us a lot about who they are demographically, any number of ways. And what happens when people find out that the number of illegals here is not 12 million, that it\u2019s 20 or 30, that we are supporting and providing education and health care and all that to, and that they just keep coming. The left doesn\u2019t want the true number out there. They want you to believe it\u2019s 12 million or fewer living in the shadows.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

By the way, where did the 12 million number come from?\u00a0 Because it used to be the common number bandied about was 20 million back in the early 2000s.\u00a0 And then this attorney general out in California.\u00a0 There are a bunch of cities in California that don\u2019t like this sanctuary city business at all.\u00a0 They don\u2019t want to be part of it; they don\u2019t want to be in violation of federal immigration law or any other federal law.\u00a0 I\u2019m talking about law enforcement officers.\u00a0 Sheriffs, police officers. In Orange County…<\/p>\n

I think it\u2019s Orange County. The sheriff\u2019s department there has decided to announce release dates when illegal aliens in jail are released. ICE is gonna be told so that ICE can go round \u2019em up because the state of California is not providing the Feds with that information.\u00a0 As you know, the sanctuary laws in the sanctuary cities and the general thinking of the left is to protect and hide from federal law enforcement.\u00a0 So these sheriffs in Orange County and elsewhere have decided they\u2019re gonna help ICE<\/a> by letting them know which inmates are being released on which dates from this prison so that ICE can be standing nearby.<\/p>\n

And the attorney general in California is fit to be tied over this.\u00a0 He is livid over this, and he\u2019s threatening to sue these people for violating state immigration law.\u00a0 Well, now, wait a minute! When Arizona tried to do something along the lines of enforce their own immigration law because the federal government was not enforcing it, Obama sued Arizona — and Arizona lost. Arizona was told by the courts, “Sorry, you don\u2019t make immigration law.\u00a0 The federal government does.\u00a0 So you can\u2019t have your own.”<\/p>\n

But here\u2019s California saying, “Screw federal immigration law!\u00a0 We are gonna have our own, and we\u2019re gonna sue sheriffs and other law enforcement who don\u2019t follow state law on this, even if they\u2019re following federal law.”\u00a0 Wait \u2019til the people around the country see that.\u00a0 This is gonna… The fact there are even some defections going on within California on the sanctuary city business… It may look to you, folks, like the left is running away with everything, and that\u2019s simple because that\u2019s the impression given every day by media. It isn\u2019t the case.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, we\u2019ve been talking all day long about the development here from the Trump Commerce Department and Willlllbuuuuur Ross, adding a question to the census on whether or not you happen to be a citizen.\u00a0 That simple question — the idea that it\u2019s gonna be on the next census in 2020 — has the left blowing up.\u00a0 I\u2019ve got a number of examples here.\u00a0 First up from the… Let\u2019s see.\u00a0 This is the Washington Post and it\u2019s by Aaron Blake.<\/p>\n

The headline alone: “The Trump Administration Is Adding a Citizenship Question to the Census. Here\u2019s Why that\u2019s Bad for Democrats.<\/a>”\u00a0 Why is it news that it\u2019s bad for the Democrats?\u00a0 But of course, that is. That\u2019s the prism through which everything is viewed: “Is it good or bad for Trump? Is it good or bad for Democrats?”\u00a0 That is largely the sole determinant in what becomes news.\u00a0 “The once-per-decade U.S. Census will ask about people\u2019s citizenship status in 2020, the Commerce Department announced late Monday.<\/p>\n

\"\"“The move, which came at the request of the Justice Department, reinstates a controversial question that hadn\u2019t been used on all surveys for decades.” That\u2019s not quite true, by the way.\u00a0 But more on that in a moment.\u00a0 “‘After a thorough review of the legal, program, and policy considerations, as well as numerous discussions with the Census Bureau leadership and interested stakeholders,\u2019 Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross wrote, ‘I have determined that reinstatement of a citizenship question on the 2020 decennial census is necessary to provide complete and accurate data in response to the DOJ request.'”<\/p>\n

Now, Mr. Blake here at the Washington Post says, “Although this may seem like the arcane workings of the federal bureaucracy, it is a decision that carries potentially major political ramifications — most notably for Republicans\u2019 ability to gerrymander Democrats into the minority for years to come. And some are crying foul.”\u00a0 Now, granted that is a concern.\u00a0 But I don\u2019t think that\u2019s the primary concern that they have with this.\u00a0 But there has been a running theme for the program.<\/p>\n

If you are just now tuning in — a welfare recipient just getting up, for example, or a Millennial still living at home being supported by mom and dad just getting up — the theme here today has been the left\/the Democrat Party for years has had to mask and camouflage itself in order to win elections. Because, contrary to the narrative every day in the media, we\u2019re not a majority radical leftist country.\u00a0 Now, we\u2019re trending that way.\u00a0 I\u2019m not… I don\u2019t want anybody to misunderstand me here.\u00a0 I\u2019m not being Pollyannaish.\u00a0 But we\u2019re not there yet.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re not majority radical leftist, and the left would not be as strong as they are today if they had been honest about everything they intended to do when they were campaigning or otherwise making promises.\u00a0 I\u2019ll use Obama as an example.\u00a0 If Obama had told you in the 2008 campaign that your insurance premiums would likely skyrocket by $5,000 or more, and that your copay and your deducible would also skyrocket — and that you would not be able to keep your doctor and you wouldn\u2019t be able to keep your insurance plan — would you have supported Obama?<\/p>\n

Nope.<\/p>\n

\"\"Obama had to lie to you.\u00a0 Obama had to tell you that your plan won\u2019t change if you like it, and that you\u2019ll be able to keep your doctor — and that the average, annual premiums are gonna go down by 2500 bucks.\u00a0 If Obama had told you that his plan was to nationalize one-sixth of the U.S. economy and put it under control of the federal government, and if he had been honest about why they wanted to do that, he wouldn\u2019t have been elected, and no Democrat would have been either.\u00a0 So they\u2019ve had this ability to wear this mask or camouflage and convince people that they\u2019re not radical leftists, that they\u2019re just centrists who care about people.<\/p>\n

And the Republicans, of course, are radical extremists — and racist, sexist, bigots, homophobes — who hate people. And they have these people that run corporations (CEOs) who want to kill their customers.\u00a0 Well, it\u2019s largely the opposite.\u00a0 But now what\u2019s happening is that because of a confluence of events and the left\u2019s ability to lie to itself, they have now come to believe — and who could blame \u2019em? You watch the news every day and you, too, would think that this country hates Donald Trump.\u00a0 You watch the news every day, and you would be convinced that the country largely regrets electing him.<\/p>\n

And if you watch the news every day, you think the country couldn\u2019t wait for Robert Mueller to find the evidence that Trump stole the election from Hillary.\u00a0 Well, if you report that stuff long enough, and you get leaks and lies that confirm that… If you do that long enough — and they\u2019ve been at it now for (if you count the campaign) 2-1\/2 years. I think they\u2019ve come to believe it.\u00a0 Then they won a special election in Pennsylvania, and that told \u2019em (along with the win in Virginia governorship) that it\u2019s over. They\u2019re gonna win the 2018 midterms. It\u2019s just a matter of time.\u00a0 It\u2019s a slam dunk.\u00a0 Just like Hillary\u2019s election in 2016.\u00a0 Slam dunk.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s just a matter of the calendar playing out.\u00a0 This has caused them to feel a new sense of confidence. Whereas a year ago, folks, they were so low that when they looked up they saw the gutter.\u00a0 They had less power in Washington than they had since the 1920s.\u00a0 They were gobsmacked and stunned by Trump\u2019s election, and they had no explanation for it, and they were looking at years and years in the darkness.\u00a0 One year later — thanks to nothing substantive, just a bunch of innuendo and lies — they\u2019re now feeling their oats.<\/p>\n

They think they\u2019re on the verge of getting Americans to agree with giving up their guns, repealing the Second Amendment.\u00a0 They\u2019re on the verge of believing that they\u2019re going to get “comprehensive immigration reform” because most Americans want open borders and want the poor of the world to be able to come here and be made whole because the United States has been so mean to \u2019em over the years.\u00a0 Now they\u2019re on the road to believing that they are dominating the thinking on the Second Amendment and guns.<\/p>\n

In the process, they\u2019re no longer worrying about hiding who they are.<\/p>\n

\"\"They\u2019re not trying to continue this masking and camouflaging of what they believe.\u00a0 And I\u2019m telling you this is a good thing for us.\u00a0 So when John Paul Stevens comes out and says, “We need to repeal the Second Amendment,” the first reaction they had was stand up and applaud and say, “See!\u00a0 See!”\u00a0 Cooler heads in the Democrat Party then prevailed and said, “We don\u2019t think we\u2019re there yet,” and they\u2019re right on this.\u00a0 Now, on this business of the citizenship question.<\/p>\n

For the longest time it has been obvious to I don\u2019t know how many that the sole interest the Democrat Party has in illegal immigration is voter registration.\u00a0 I have submitted any number of proposals.\u00a0 My most recent proposal was proclaimed on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace. I said, “Count me in as a supporter for full-fledged amnesty for every illegal immigrant in the country, as long as they can\u2019t vote for 20 to 25 years.”\u00a0 Not a single taker.\u00a0 Over the years I have told people the Democrat Party\u2019s interest in this not compassion, it\u2019s not the poor, it\u2019s not any of that.\u00a0 It is simply a way of maintaining a permanent underclass in America that will always be dependent on government and therefore the Democrats.<\/p>\n

And people… I\u2019m shocked by it, but there\u2019s still a significant number of people who don\u2019t buy that, who really believe that it\u2019s all about compassion for the poor and those in poverty, those escaping war-torn countries.\u00a0 Well, now, a simple question on the next census asking about citizenship is causing panic in the Democrat Party.\u00a0 It\u2019s causing panic over the potential for “gerrymandering” or redrawing congressional districts. But there\u2019s another aspect of this too — and I mentioned it a couple of times.<\/p>\n

But I think it\u2019s every bit as important, and that is — I mean, what\u2019s the census? It\u2019s a tabulation, it\u2019s a counting of the number of people who live here and what they do and who they are, all kinds of demographic information that\u2019s collected. Well, you add that citizenship question, and now we\u2019re gonna find out how many people who live here are not citizens, if this survives the court challenge that is surely coming. And what if the number of illegal immigrants is not the 12 million being bandied about. What if it\u2019s really 20 million or maybe even more?<\/p>\n

That is something the left and the Democrat Party want you to have no knowledge of. From Aaron Blake\u2019s story. “Several states, including California and New York, have announced they will sue to keep the citizenship question out of the census because they believe it would penalize illegal immigrants and infringe on civil rights.” And this is the real reason, it will lower the number of people who still live in these hellholes, taking away their representation and giving it to Texas and North Carolina.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s another thing they don\u2019t want people to figure out, is how many people don\u2019t live where everybody thinks they live. Contrary to almost all reports, every census except for 2010 under Obama, had some form of citizenship question. The American community survey, a more frequent government survey done in between the 10 years also includes a citizenship question.<\/p>\n

“But why is this a big deal?” writes Mr. Blake. “Because Republicans already have a significant edge on the congressional and state legislative maps, thanks to how our population is distributed and to the GOP having earned the power to redraw lots of the new maps after the 2010 Census. And this could significantly increase their advantages for two reasons: One, It might dissuade noncitizens from participating in the census, thereby diluting the political power of the (mostly urban and Democratic) areas they come from.” And secondly, “Even without that, it would hand Republicans a new tool in redrawing districts even more in their favor.”<\/p>\n

So it\u2019s kind of six of one, half dozen of the other. If they answer the question, then the real number of illegal immigrants living here will be known. If they don\u2019t answer the question, if they leave it blank, then that will be fewer citizens, fewer people living in these Democrat areas. They would lose population, thereby potentially lose power, representative seats in various districts around the country.<\/p>\n

And I just want you to think about this, a simple question, “Are you a citizen of the United States?” is causing the Democrat and the news media to have conniption fits. Now, if you\u2019ve been one of these people all these years who have rejected the idea that pure politics, Democrat Party power politics is behind their so-called compassion for the poor people of the world, if you have believed that, then how are you going to rationalize, how are you gonna explain their frenzied, panicked opposition to finding out who these poor people are?<\/p>\n

Wouldn\u2019t we want to know? If we\u2019re going to feed them and clothe them and give them health care and show them our compassion, don\u2019t we need to know who they are? Wouldn\u2019t the Democrats want to know who they are so that we can reach them and so that we can be compassionate and give them whatever they need? But the Democrats, they don\u2019t want anything of the sort. They don\u2019t want it known. They don\u2019t want those people counted. And people are gonna start asking why.<\/p>\n

\"\"Now, one thing about the Democrats, public opinion doesn\u2019t matter to them. It rarely matters to anything other than shaping an agenda, but it never, ever would affect their policy changes or their behavior. If public opinion polls go against them, then they find a reason to rip the people in the public who responded as they did, get mad at them, promise to take it out on them some way, somehow. It never causes them to substantively change who they are. In this instance, something as simple as, “Are you a citizen?” is causing mass panic attacks.<\/p>\n

New York Times: “Despite Concerns, Census Will Ask Respondents if They Are U.S. Citizens<\/a> — Critics of the change and experts in the Census Bureau itself have said that, amid a fiery immigration debate, the inclusion of a citizenship question could prompt immigrants who are in the country illegally not to respond. That would result in a severe undercount of the population \u2014 and, in turn, faulty data for government agencies and outside groups that rely on the census. The effects would also bleed into the redistricting of the House and state legislatures in the next decade.”<\/p>\n

Let me translate that for you. The Democrats want illegal aliens counted in order to get more taxpayer money for their districts and more seats in the U.S. House and in statehouses. The second point being even more important than the first, since the Democrats know once they have the power, they can vote themselves whatever money they want. But they\u2019re caught between a rock and a hard place. On the one hand they do want the accurate number. On the other hand, they don\u2019t dare.<\/p>\n

So we\u2019ll see how it shakes out. But the bottom line is, again, this is causing the Democrats once again to shed their camouflage and shed their masking. And they don\u2019t want to do this. So we\u2019ll see how they deal with this, because this is never anything they have sought to do. I think they\u2019re in a position now where they think they may not be able to avoid it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
