<\/p>\nRUSH: I also got an email during the break. “Rush, Rush, what do you think of this George Conway situation?” Folks, this is so unseemly to me that I don\u2019t quite know what to think about this. So much of this is inexplicable. I\u2019ll tell you, there\u2019s a theory going around. Dawn, tell me what you think of this theory.<\/p>\n
The theory in Never Trumpville, the Never Trumpers think — because people don\u2019t understand. Here you\u2019ve got a married couple, Kellyanne Conway works for Trump, you\u2019ve got her husband, who\u2019s a lawyer and a professor and whatever. He spends every waking moment attacking his wife\u2019s boss.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And the latest is he\u2019s tweeted out a couple of definitions of some pathologies, some psychological disorders, claiming that Trump has narcissist deflection personality and some other crazy thing. His wife is one of the key communications employees for the president of the United States, and this guy\u2019s out there attempting to sabotage and undermine his wife\u2019s boss.<\/p>\n
Now, the Never Trumpers are looking at this, and they\u2019re saying, \u201cThis doesn\u2019t compute. There\u2019s no way this marriage can continue unless something that we don\u2019t know is going on.\u201d This is not Carville and Matalin. They were not undermining each other. Not like Conway is undermining his own wife. And she doesn\u2019t reply to it. You know, Mary, they\u2019d get back and forth, you know, with Serpent Head and so forth in a friendly, humorous, sometimes cutting way. But it wasn\u2019t anything like this. This is not Carville and Matalin — I\u2019m sorry — Matalin and Carville.<\/p>\n
Now, in Never Trumpville, the theory is — are you ready for this? Three, two, one — that George Conway is only doing this because Kellyanne wants him to. That Kellyanne thinks Trump is crazy but can\u2019t say it because she works for him, and so she is using her — this is what the Never Trumpers believe. The Never Trumpers are out there thinking — they look at this and they say there\u2019s no way that this marriage can continue. There\u2019s literally no way.<\/p>\n
Put yourself in this marriage and imagine your spouse undermining you publicly three to four times a week like this. And undermining your boss, who just happens to be the president. I mean, couples have gotten divorced for far less than this. But this marriage continues. So in Never Trumpville, they\u2019re telling themselves that this couldn\u2019t possibly be happening unless Kellyanne wanted it to happen.<\/p>\n
Really? If Kellyanne really thinks all of this crazy stuff that her husband is tweeting out there, she could quit. What do you think CNN would pay her to come on every day? They\u2019d give her a three-hour block. They\u2019d pay her $25 million for three hours to come on and explain all of this on a never-ending loop that they would run. She doesn\u2019t need to have her husband do this, is the point, if this is what she wants to do. Plus, there aren\u2019t very many — in fact, she may be, in the whole White House communication shop, she may the best consistent explainer, defender of Trump that he\u2019s got. And that would be a tough thing to fake.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I\u2019m just telling you, I don\u2019t know George Conway, I\u2019ve never met him, and I didn\u2019t even know what he looked like until all this began. I know Kellyanne a little, but not well. But, as a husband, I cannot possibly relate to this. I can\u2019t imagine doing this. I can\u2019t even conceive, unless I was so angry and so consumed with bitterness over things that had nothing to do — I cannot conceive of this. I think it is immature, it is silly, and now George is all excited \u2019cause Trump finally responded.<\/p>\n
Trump has been ignoring him for two years and Trump\u2019s finally responded. And George: Oh, wow, oh, wow, I finally got his attention. Now he\u2019s tweeting out even more psychological disorders, copying them and pasting them into tweets. I don\u2019t know how Kellyanne puts up with it. I\u2019ve mentioned it to her. I saw her at the Trump rally in Cape Girardeau. She was there. And I tried to express, you know, a little sympathy, a little understanding. And she just laughed it off. “Oh, George is just silly. George, don\u2019t pay any attention that. George is just –”<\/p>\n
I said, “Okay. Just trying to let you know here that I feel for you.”<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/RUSHTRUMPCAPE-e1541477864708.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
“Ah, no big deal.” And she just waved it off like George was one of her wayward children over whom she\u2019d lost some control. Think of the book deal that she could get if the Never Trump theory of this is accurate. Anyway, you\u2019ll probably see that theory, if you haven\u2019t already, you\u2019ll probably see it bandied about throughout the Drive-By. Because if CNN gets hold of this, and they probably will now, they will just go bonkers with it.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: We\u2019ve got Kate in Carson City, Nevada. This is the old Kate from Fairfield, California, back from my Sacramento days. You\u2019re back at it. As always, it\u2019s great to have you here.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Well, it\u2019s great to talk to you, Rush. And, by the way, just to confirm, you did do exactly what you did in Sacramento. You did that nationally. So Ted Koppel\u2019s full of it. But that\u2019s not why I called. I called because my anger toward George Conway has been growing and growing, and it absolutely blew up yesterday when I saw his tweets or whatever you call \u2019em. Anyway, I don\u2019t know why Kellyanne stays with this man. What he\u2019s doing to her — and I\u2019ll tell you what my theory is. He\u2019s jealous. He\u2019s jealous that his wife successfully elected Donald Trump as president and is probably his most articulate —<\/p>\n
RUSH: You know, this —<\/p>\n
CALLER: — defender in the press.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Kate?<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/APP-030618-Kellyanne-Conway.jpg\")
CALLER: I think he\u2019s jealous!<\/p>\n
RUSH: Maybe. I have to tell you something, though. I don\u2019t understand that either. I —<\/p>\n
CALLER: (laughing)<\/p>\n
RUSH: No, no. Personally. If… I am so proud of Kathryn for what she has done with the heavy lifting on the Rush Revere books and the redesign of RushLimbaugh.com. My wife, the more she succeeds, the prouder I am. I can\u2019t understand being that insecure and being jealous. Why can\u2019t he marvel in it, revel in it, and be part of it and help her along with this? I don\u2019t understand it, either. Now, Mr. Snerdley told me that you were glad I finally brought this up.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yes. I certainly was.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, I —<\/p>\n
CALLER: I was waiting for you to bring it up.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Here\u2019s the problem. See, I have to be very careful about what I bring up. I didn\u2019t want to bring it up today. I didn\u2019t want to give this guy any more amplification than he\u2019s already got. When I talk about something, the world hears about it eventually, and I don\u2019t know if this guy\u2019s worth it. But it got to a breaking point today. Some of this stuff is just so over the top, and it is inexplicable. It doesn\u2019t make any sense.<\/p>\n
CALLER: No, it doesn\u2019t, except you know what I think? I think the things that George Conway is saying about Donald Trump are actually true about George Conway. You know how sometimes you\u2019ll say something about someone else that\u2019s really the truth about you?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. I really do. Oh, absolutely. Yeah.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yeah. I think George Conway is the one who\u2019s got problems. George Conway\u2019s the one who\u2019s dealing with narcissism. George Conway\u2019s the one who\u2019s got terrible, you know, uhhh, Small-Hand Syndrome or whatever you want to call it. George Conway —<\/p>\n
RUSH: A-ha! A-ha! Now we\u2019re getting somewhere!<\/p>\n
CALLER: (laughing)<\/p>\n
RUSH: Small-Hand Syndrome.<\/p>\n
CALLER: (laughing)<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yeah. I can always count on you to get to where it really matters, Kate.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hey, I got eight kids, you know?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, sadly, sadly I\u2019m out of precious broadcast time, but you nailed it. I mean, there\u2019s nobody that has any doubt what you mean (laughing) or what you\u2019re thinking about this. I\u2019m glad you called. I always am.<\/p>\n
CALLER: (laughing) Love you, Rush.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Take care.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Bye-bye.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Right. Back here in just a second.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: Here is Todd in St. Cloud, Minnesota. You\u2019re next. It\u2019s great to have you with us. Hi.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Greetings and Salutations from Mini-DC-ota. I was calling about Kellyanne\u2019s lesser half and how he was diagnosing the president with his issues and —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Oh, yes. Narcissism, narcissistic disorder, all that stuff, Small-Hand Disease, you name it.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Exactly. What disease do they have that that\u2019s what they do full time? That they get up in the morning, they hate and they spew hate and they gotta go get him. I\u2019m not a psychiatrist, but, you know, I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s obsessive-compulsive disorder or it\u2019s somebody got in my Wheaties this morning.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Actually, it\u2019s a great question. While all these people are accusing Trump of massive psychological and pathological disorders, how about the Never Trump brigades, both our Never Trumpers and the Democrats, because we\u2019re dealing with clear irrationality at best. The best case we can make for them is they\u2019re irrational.<\/p>\n
CALLER: And Never Trumpers, the former Senator McCain was part of it, and I think we can all agree what President Trump had said, it hurt him, it hurt McCain, and it was disrespectful for McCain\u2019s service, but I think we can all agree that Senator McCain was the most conservative Democrat in the Senate.<\/p>\n
RUSH: (McCain impression) \u201cHey. I caught that. You can\u2019t get away with disparaging me, a conservative Democrat, I heard that, and you can\u2019t say it, you can\u2019t say it, okay?\u201d Very clever on your part, sir. The most conservative Democrat that we had. You put it that way, you do have a point.<\/p>\n
CALLER: I mean, you look at his history and all that. But, yeah, you listen to these people and, you know, that cable TV news station that has less audience than you have? I mean, I listen to \u2019em, I look at it, I want to get a perspective from all sides. And it\u2019s just visceral, their hatred for the president. Just think if 44 received half of the hate news media coverage that President Trump has received.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Oh —<\/p>\n
CALLER: How would he do?<\/p>\n
RUSH: How would he deal with it? How would Obama deal? Let me remind everybody of something. Let me remind everybody. In one of Obama\u2019s early press conferences, Maureen Dowd asked him something about his ears, and he glared at her, he glowered at her, gave some answer. When it was over, he sought her out afterwards and told her he was very sensitive about questions about his ears. And she said (paraphrasing), \u201cDon\u2019t worry about it, we\u2019re just trying to toughen you up.\u201d Remember that, Snerdley?<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re just trying to toughen you up.\u201d I guarantee, if Obama got one day of what Trump got, he would have sic\u2019d Michelle on these people and who knows what would have happened then. He was telling Republicans not to listen to me! “That\u2019s not how things get done in Washington.” That\u2019s another great point. The irrationality and the pathological disorders of all these people in the Drive-By Media about Trump is beyond describing, the irrationality of hatred.<\/p>\n
I can explain it, by the way. It would take me a while, but I can explain it, \u2019cause I understand their psychology. Trump wasn\u2019t supposed to win, and he did. They were supposed to make sure he lost, and they didn\u2019t. Trump is an outsider. He\u2019s not an elite and they are. Trump upsets the natural order of their daily existence.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a total equilibrium disrupter, and they can\u2019t stomach this happened, particularly when their job was to make sure it didn\u2019t happen. They can\u2019t believe Hillary lost even though they know she was a rotten candidate. They don\u2019t like Trump\u2019s hair, they don\u2019t like the way he talks. It\u2019s a never-ending list of things. But it is real hatred. And real hatred is a poison. And they have been poisoning themselves daily, ever since Trump got into the race.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: We went back to the Grooveyard of Forgotten Sound Bites, the archives. December 10th, 2006, remember Obama was elected in 2008. December 10th, 2006, New Hampshire, after Senator Obama held a press conference, he walked straight over to New York Times columnistette Maureen Dowd and had this exchange with her.<\/p>\n
OBAMA: You talked about my ears, and I just want to put you on notice. I\u2019m very sensitive about — what I told them was, I was teased relentlessly when I was a kid about my big ears.<\/p>\n
DOWD: We\u2019re just trying to toughen you up.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Were you able to hear that? See, I can\u2019t. I just heard what I thought were camera shutters and stuff. I couldn\u2019t hear a single word of that except for here: “We\u2019re just trying to toughen you up.” So, he said, “You talked about my ears, and I just want to put you on notice. I\u2019m very sensitive about — what I told \u2019em was, I was teased relentlessly when I was a kid about my big ears.” “We\u2019re just trying to toughen you up.”<\/p>\n
Think about Donald Trump and orange hair! Yeah, our caller was right. These people are basically a bunch of babies. And they couldn\u2019t handle — there\u2019s not a one — Jim Acosta can\u2019t handle five minutes of what Trump gets. Obama couldn\u2019t handle a day of it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
