It\u2019s the seriousness of the charge, which means that it is true. In the same thing, I start getting irritated. It\u2019s why I don\u2019t watch a lot of cable news anymore. I tuned in yesterday when I got home. I wanted to watch the completion of Kavanaugh. I watched his opening statement here and then left and got home in time to see some of the Q&amp;A.<\/p>\n<p>And then I turned over to the media, and the media starts analyzing what just happened, and here the guys are on CNN and MSNBC. And they\u2019re acting like (impression), &#8220;Everybody thinks that Kavanaugh\u2019s a liar. Every American! Every American thought that Dr. Ford was brilliant and a hero and so honest and so real &#8212; and &#8212; and &#8212; and so caring and so thoughtful and so&#8230;&#8221; It just drives me nuts that these people start assuming that every American agrees with them.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-286414 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/310-Micheal-Moore.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"325\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/310-Micheal-Moore.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/310-Micheal-Moore-289x300.jpg 289w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 325px) 100vw, 325px\" \/>For example, the Democrats say, &#8220;Man, this poor woman has been so mistreated. This is really going to inspire our voters!&#8221; I thought Democrats didn\u2019t need to be inspired! I thought they were already fired up? There\u2019s more evidence. We\u2019ve got a Pew Research Center poll. Republicans are just as fired up as Democrats are. Fairly close, but Republicans on balance are just as fired up. There\u2019s no particular fired-up advantage that the Democrats have. In the real world, there\u2019s continued evidence. Michael Moore\u2019s movie. Wouldn\u2019t you think&#8230;?<\/p>\n<p>In an America that just can\u2019t wait to destroy Trump &#8212; just can\u2019t wait to fix its mistake of voting for Trump &#8212; realizes that they made the gravest error they\u2019ve ever made and they hate Trump now and they\u2019re embarrassed of what they did and they can\u2019t wait to get out there and vote Trump and the Republicans out of office in November &#8212; wouldn\u2019t you think a deranged lunatic hate-Trump movie would draw record crowds and raise record revenue? You would think that. But Michael Moore\u2019s movie is bombing everywhere. It\u2019s bombing in the case of ticket sales. It\u2019s bombing revenue-wise.<\/p>\n<p>At the Toronto Film Festival, it barely was voted the eighth best. That doesn\u2019t sound like blue wave stuff to me. Doesn\u2019t sound like&#8230; I mean, these people, as rabid as they are in their hatred and resentment for Trump, would go anywhere they could to get their taste and fill of it. I\u2019ll tell you what did Michael Moore in, in addition to the fact that I think it\u2019s way, way overblown. I don\u2019t deny there are plenty of people that hate Trump. Don\u2019t misunderstand. We\u2019ve got more Americans than I ever thought possible with psychological disorders who are considered political activists on the left.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-264308\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-021318-Silent-Majority-Trump-Sign.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-021318-Silent-Majority-Trump-Sign.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-021318-Silent-Majority-Trump-Sign-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And they\u2019re out there, and they\u2019re numerous. They\u2019re not the majority of people in this country. I simply refuse to believe that a majority of our population has and is governed by psychological disorders, that psychological disorders determine their politics. I refuse to believe that. Not a majority. But here\u2019s the problem with Moore. He goes out there, produces this anti-Trump movie, and he forgets that audiences don\u2019t have to pay any money to see it. All they have to do is turn on CNN! All they have to do is turn on PMSNBC.<\/p>\n<p>All they have to do is read the Washington Post, the New York Times. Why go to a movie, and why pay whatever it costs to go see a movie where you can see the same thing every night, every day over and over again for absolutely zilch? So Moore\u2019s sense of timing, his sense of where the public is, the belief that the country hates Trump? Everywhere you see this, everywhere you see leftists trying to make money or raise money on the basis of Trump hatred, it just bombs. They lost the special election in Texas where the Democrats had carried the district for something like 139 years.<\/p>\n<p>In Texas, in the middle of what\u2019s supposed to be a blue wave!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH:  Michael Moore&#039;s movie is bombing everywhere.
