Yes!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Does it feel like winning? (interruption) Does what feel like&#8230;? Mr. Snerdley is asking, &#8220;These last few days, does it feel like winning?&#8221; Well, cautiously, yeah, it feels like winning. Of course it does! These are huge decisions! Are you telling me this doesn\u2019t feel like winning to you? (interruption) Snerdley, I\u2019ll tell you what\u2019s nagging at you. Snerdley asks, &#8220;Does this feel like winning to you?&#8221; Yeah, there\u2019s no question this is winning. The union case? There\u2019s no question. The Kennedy retirement?<\/p>\n<p>We won\u2019t know if this is a win until we see who Trump nominates, until the guy gets confirmed. Some of the other things. But Snerdley says, &#8220;Something is gnawing at me.&#8221; I\u2019ve had a lot of emails from people, even had a call yesterday from somebody\u2019s worried, &#8220;What if Mueller comes in and says that Trump and Putin conspired and has evidence of it? Do you realize, Rush, it\u2019s all over.&#8221; Is that something you\u2019re worried about, Mr. Snerdley, that Mueller\u2019s got something? (interruption)<\/p>\n<p>He thinks it\u2019s a little bit of that too. Well, I think if you are feeling restrained in your celebratory nature here, it\u2019s simple. (interruption) All right, fine. Stay that way. I think all you\u2019re reacting to is a lifetime of us taking it on the chin no matter what happens. You\u2019re just so used to us losing, you\u2019re so used to feeling really good about something and then the left pulls a sneak attack from out of nowhere that nullifies it all. It\u2019s just you\u2019re reacting to a bunch of conditioning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-277985\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-062818-Trump-HAPPY-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-062818-Trump-HAPPY-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-062818-Trump-HAPPY-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But I think you need to temper that with the fact that this is not your average Republican president. This is all new. This kind of stuff has not happened before in our lifetimes. Closest to it is Ronaldus Magnus. Do you know that even Ronald Reagan at no point in his presidency had an approval rating as high as 90% of all Republicans? Donald Trump does. At no point during the Reagan presidency did 70% of the American people say they think the news is literally made up.<\/p>\n<p>So I think feeling restrained and not wanting to let go and act like celebrating here is&#8230; A, it\u2019s wise, because these are temporary steps along the way. But it\u2019s also the result of a lifetime of doing that and then having to dial it back because something\u2019s come along. A Republican is betrayed or any number of things. But, yeah, I\u2019m feeling really, really good about all this. These Supreme Court decisions this week? I\u2019ll tell you why I feel good about those. I think in each of these 5-4 decisions&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>As I said yesterday, I think the court is reestablishing the primacy of the Constitution, not Donald Trump. All of these judges that have issued these executive orders trying to stop Trump\u2019s lawful &#8212; or these stays of execution&#8230; Not execution. Well, yeah, could be that. But they\u2019ve stayed Trump\u2019s executive orders, and the court\u2019s basically telling them, &#8220;You don\u2019t have the power to do this. A single federal judge cannot stop a lawful executive order of the president.&#8221; So the court here is standing up for the Constitution.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a positive thing whenever that happens.<\/p>\n<p>But I don\u2019t think you can take Trump out of the equation. So we\u2019ll see what other people have to say about it on the phones. Is there something specific in this that\u2019s making you feel less than celebratory about this or is it just an overall feeling of unease? (silence) You\u2019re not answering. (interruption) Well, feeling uneasy about it. It\u2019s just conditioning. I think it\u2019s habitual. I think it\u2019s what you\u2019re used to. You know, it\u2019s your intelligence guided by experience that is wisely causing you to restrain yourself until something actually is etched in stone.<\/p>\n<p>Well, these court decisions are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Snerdley asks, &quot;Does this feel like winning to you?&quot; Yeah, there&#039;s no question this is winning. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":277985,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Does This Feel Like Winning?
