Ron, you\u2019re next. It\u2019s great to have you here, sir. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes. Mega dittos from near your old hometown, Rush. It won\u2019t matter if there is a red wave or a blue wave because of what you, <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2018\/09\/11\/mitch-mcconnells-fatalism-vs-conrad-blacks-optimism\/\">Conrad Black<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1524763683?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=theofficiw0c2-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1524763683\">Salena Zito<\/a> have taught us about Donaldus Magnus and his support. Donald Trump will keep on winning. If there\u2019s a blue wave he will beat these people like a drum &#8212; and I say this to you, Rush, as a recovering communist.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You are a recovering communist? How long were you a communist?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-250716\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/650-031417-Trust-in-Trump.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/650-031417-Trust-in-Trump.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/650-031417-Trust-in-Trump-300x143.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Mainly my school years at the end of the sixties. You know, I went to UCSB to become a hippie and a communist, but I gradually became&#8230; I always was a patriot, but I gradually became a man of reason, and you have helped in my recovery since the summer of Desert Storm. Recovery is a one-day thing. You have kept me on the straight and narrow.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, I\u2019m very appreciative of hearing that. I love your confidence, don\u2019t misunderstand. But you say, &#8220;Whether it is a blue wave or red&#8230;&#8221; Blue wave. Let\u2019s go with worst-case scenario. I just want to get your reaction to it. All right? You with me?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes. I\u2019m game.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Blue wave, Democrats win the House. Blue wave, Democrats win the Senate. You think you\u2019re not worried because Trump is going to continue to skunk all these people, but what will it mean? That Trump\u2019s voters didn\u2019t show up to beat the blue wave?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It will be a really disappointment, Rush, but it doesn\u2019t matter. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s Conrad Black in his back, but Donald Trump\u2019s sister, the judge, said she learned at a young age not to compete with Donald because he always wins. And he will find a way to expose these people for the intellectual corruption that you have been so articulate about for three decades now.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right. So let\u2019s continue, then, on this wave of optimism in the face of utter disaster. We have a blue wave. You think the Democrats winning control of the House and Senate will afford Trump an opportunity to once and for all, after decades of trying, expose to the American people who and what the American people left and the Democrat Party is?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes. Just what you\u2019ve been sawing for years, how corrupt these people are, what their culture &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Because you think they will then start demoing that because they\u2019ll shut down government effectively by doing nothing but investigating Trump?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes, and there are &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: How does Trump win when they\u2019ve shut the government &#8212; effectively shut it down &#8212; by not doing anything? Their objective is gonna be to stop the Trump agenda. They\u2019re gonna hope that Mueller in his report either indicts Trump or leads to charges that could lead to impeachment, and they\u2019re gonna start subpoenaing. We already know. The Republicans have all&#8230; You may not know this.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-283717 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/APP-021218-Trump-Rally.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/APP-021218-Trump-Rally.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/APP-021218-Trump-Rally-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Republican Party has already prepared a list of things that they expect the Democrats to start investigating the minute the new Congress has convened, if they gain control of the House. The emoluments clause. Trump\u2019s travel ban. They\u2019re gonna investigate everything he\u2019s done. They\u2019re gonna be subpoenaing members of the administration. They\u2019re gonna be subpoenaing anybody they can. The entire day in the House of Representatives gonna be one committee after another investigating Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And he will still have the attorney general, the Justice Department &#8212; and I\u2019m not saying that Jeff Sessions has done anything right so far. But he will still have that. And he can continue the investigation of Peter Strzok, Page, all of them. All of them. You know, the question about this whole investigation is, &#8220;What did the president know and when did he know it? What did Barack Obama know about this false planting of evidence investigation of the Trump campaign on behalf of Hillary?&#8221; And he can continue that with the Justice Department. I don\u2019t know what &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Let me just tell you about that. If Trump doesn\u2019t do all of that before the election, then it\u2019s gonna get buried after the election. He has got to do something. This has to get started either with the release of documents that currently the DOJ will not release even though they\u2019ve been subpoenaed. That kind of thing had better happen before the election, because if it doesn\u2019t &#8212; if Trump waits to try to do all that after the election &#8212; then we\u2019re now going under the hypothesis that the Democrats win the House. It becomes a little bit more problematic to do so.<\/p>\n<p>But since you bring up Strzok-Page &#8212; and, by the way, thanks for the call, Ron. I appreciate it. I wanted you all to hear that because I don\u2019t know how typical that is of your average, ordinary Trump supporters, but there is that kind of optimism and confidence in Trump out there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CALLER: Donald Trump&#039;s sister, the judge, said she learned at a young age not to compete with Donald because he always wins.
