They have a poll out showing Trump\u2019s approval ratings have spiked and gone up at the conclusion of the Kavanaugh confirmation fight. Not cool. Also, independents disapprove of the Democrats\u2019 handling of the Kavanaugh nomination by a 28-point margin in the CNN poll. That\u2019s not how it was supposed to be. That\u2019s not what people were supposed to conclude. People were supposed to conclude that Kavanaugh is unfit!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-287693\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100918-CNN-Trump-Poll.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100918-CNN-Trump-Poll.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100918-CNN-Trump-Poll-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>That Kavanaugh has no business being a judge anywhere, much less the Supreme Court! That Kavanaugh needs to be destroyed, justifiably so! That\u2019s what people were supposed to realize, and that\u2019s what midterm voters were supposed to agree to: To punish anybody who would try to foist a despicable miscreant like Kavanaugh on the country. But it didn\u2019t work out that way. More on this, of course, but let\u2019s go to the phones. We\u2019ll start in the nation\u2019s capital, Washington, D.C. This is Sandy. I\u2019m glad you called. Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I am so pleased to talk to you, Rush. Thanks for taking my call. I watched the president and Nikki Haley this morning. I think Nikki Haley did tell the president a few months ago of her plans. I think today was deliberate on the heels of Kavanaugh. I think he\u2019s got somebody in mind. He\u2019s gonna announce that person before the election, and what are the Drive-Bys and the Democrats gonna do? They\u2019re gonna start fighting. &#8220;Oh, we can\u2019t have this person. Oh, this is terrible. Da-da-da,&#8221; and then what\u2019s gonna happen with the election? People are gonna say, &#8220;It\u2019s not gonna stop.&#8221; We can\u2019t allow the Democrats back in, hopefully.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It isn\u2019t going to stop whether the Democrats win or lose. This is the point. You\u2019re right, but it isn\u2019t ever going to stop until these people are so soundly defeated and become such a very small group of people&#8230; Even then, they\u2019re not gonna stop. The Kavanaugh thing is not the end of anything. The Kavanaugh thing &#8212; as far as most people are concerned &#8212; the way you need to look at it is this is the beginning. This is the beginning of the way it\u2019s gonna be for as long as we allow it to be done to us.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That\u2019s right.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-287469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Flag-Bunting-005.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Flag-Bunting-005.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Flag-Bunting-005-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And, you\u2019re right. They\u2019re gonna try to poke holes into whoever Trump\u2019s nominee for U.N. ambassador is. I haven\u2019t heard any names. I haven\u2019t played close enough attention to know who the names being bandied about might be. But they\u2019re gonna do it on principle. They\u2019re gonna do it because they think it\u2019ll be a political advantage headed into the midterms, showing once again that the world, the country doesn\u2019t think Trump is justified and qualified to be naming anybody to this position.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He doesn\u2019t deserve to be president. We need to get rid of him!&#8221; This is the whole foundation for which they\u2019re gonna behave anyway. The question is, does this hurt them or help them? And not with their base. I mean, we know their base is driving this. But with others, as all this never-ending obstruction and personal destruction of nominee after nominee after nominee. We\u2019ll see. I appreciate the call, Sandy. You talk about being outnumbered: One of us living in Washington, the 10% of the population that\u2019s not Democrat.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Morgan Stanley says that belief in American exceptionalism has never been higher among international investors.
