Are we now going to have an unelected, named investigator that is investigating every president every day of his presidency? Because this does set a precedent if this isn\u2019t stopped, if this isn\u2019t properly characterized, if this isn\u2019t properly exposed for what\u2019s really happened here, then how do you keep it from happening again? Anyway, let me take a brief time-out here, and I\u2019ll find what Mr. Hanson wrote about this \u2019cause it\u2019s really well done.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.

Rosenstein offered to wear a wire in some sort of bizarre comic coup attempt to catch Trump off guard being an idiot.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen that did not work, 200 congressional Democrats in late 2018 sued in federal court to remove President Trump, claiming he had violated the esoteric Emoluments Clause. &#8230; When that did not work, the ongoing \u2018Resistance\u2019 both covertly and overtly sought ways to retard or destroy the Trump presidency\u2014often by leaking presidential memos, conversations, and phone calls. An anonymous op-ed published in the New York Times on September 15, 2018 boasted of a plan of resistance to his governance and initiatives from those in the administrative state from inside the Trump Administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen that did not work, progressive heartthrob lawyer and now indicted Michael Avenatti reintroduced pornographic film star Stormy Daniels. &#8230; When that did not work, federal law enforcement officials stormed the offices of Trump lawyer Michael Cohen. &#8230; When that did not work, Russian collusion hysteria continued to sweep the country. The moribund phony Steele dossier was reignited by the media and progressive politicos after the firing of FBI director James Comey.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRosenstein then appointed Robert Mueller as special counsel. &#8230; When that did not work, congressional committees mobilized to sue and force Trump to release at least six years of his private income tax records. &#8230; Are such efforts in the future to be institutionalized?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWill the Left nod and keep still, if Republicans attempt to remove an elected Democratic President before his tenure is up? Are appeals to impeachment, the 25th Amendment, the Emoluments Clause, the Logan Act, and a Special Counsel the now normal cargo of political opposition to any future elected president? Is it now permissible in 2020 for Trump\u2019s FBI director to insert an informant into the campaign of the Democratic presidential nominee?&#8221; Which happened to Trump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Joe Biden is the 2020 nominee, will the Trump Justice Department seek FISA warrants to monitor the communications of Biden\u2019s campaign team\u2014in worries that Biden son\u2019s business practices in the Ukraine had earlier compromised Biden. &#8230; Will they investigate Biden\u2019s propensity to hug and kiss under-aged girls? Will Trump\u2019s CIA director contact foreign nationals to aid in spying on Biden\u2019s aides?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWill National Security Advisor John Bolton request that the names of surveilled Biden campaign officials become unmasked as a way of having them leaked to the media? Will Trump hire a British ex-spy to gather together rumors and gossip about Biden\u2019s previous overseas trips.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmerica over the last half century had been nursed on the dogma that the Left was the guarantor of civil liberties. That was the old message of the battles supposedly waged on our behalf by the ACLU, the free-speech areas on campuses, and the Earl Warren Court.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-305547\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-040919-Rush-EIB-Flag-Ponder.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-040919-Rush-EIB-Flag-Ponder.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-040919-Rush-EIB-Flag-Ponder-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\u201cNot now. The left believes that almost any means necessary, extra-legal and anti-constitutional or not, are justified to achieve their noble ends. Progressive luminaries at CNN and the New York Times have lectured us that reporters need not be disinterested any more in the age of Trump\u2014or that it might be a crime to shout \u2018lock her up\u2019 at a Trump rally. Will those standards apply to coverage of future Democratic presidents?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo reporter seems to care that Hillary Clinton hired a foreign national to work with other foreign nationals to sabotage, first, her opponent\u2019s campaign, then his transition and his presidency, along with the wink and nod help from key Obama officials. The final irony? If the CIA, FBI, and DOJ have gone the banana republic way of Lois Lerner\u2019s IRS and shredded the Constitution, they still failed to remove Donald Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What if the Republicans try all of this against the next Democrat? Ha.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, wait a minute. Before anybody goes off, Victor Davis Hanson is asking these questions rhetorically. Nobody in the world thinks the Republicans would ever do what the Democrats did here. The Republican FBI would not plant spies in a Democrat campaign, in the Democrat nominee\u2019s campaign. They wouldn\u2019t commission a phony dossier. That\u2019s the whole point! But will the Democrats do it again?<\/p>\n<p>The question is, since the Democrats did it this time &#8212; and make no mistake, Hillary Clinton did this with the aid and probably initiative of Barack Obama &#8212; believe me, none of this could have happened without Obama at least knowing about it. This stuff started in 2015. This stuff started the moment Trump got in the race and started talking about shutting the border, started talking about building a wall, started talking about getting us out of NATO, started talking about NAFTA.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s campaign was heard by these people as a great unraveling of the world order that they ran. They weren\u2019t gonna take any chance. This guy wasn\u2019t supposed to get to first. They were gonna make sure Trump never got to first base much less second base, third base, or homerun.<\/p>\n<p>This stuff started the minute Trump\u2019s rants on what he thinks is wrong with America and concomitantly put America back together again, making America great again meant reasserting America in this global arrangement, rather than having us be subordinate in the global arrangement, these people started having a cow.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-303790\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/APP-032519-Deep-State-xx.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/APP-032519-Deep-State-xx.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/APP-032519-Deep-State-xx-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>And they weren\u2019t gonna leave anything to chance. They\u2019ve devoted their lives, their educations, their careers, their forebears &#8212; I mean many of these people are legacied. Their parents, fathers and whatever were involved in all this. They weren\u2019t gonna let some ogre come along. And even if he didn\u2019t win, the public was reacting really favorably to what Trump was saying and they couldn\u2019t take the chance that the Republican nominee, if it wasn\u2019t Trump wouldn\u2019t pick up on some of this stuff because it might be seen that\u2019s what it would take to win the election.<\/p>\n<p>Now, that\u2019s a real, real far out possibility that any of these other Republican candidates would have adopted policies like Trumps. But they couldn\u2019t leave that to chance. Trump had to be taken out. And I\u2019m telling you, this had coordinated involvement from the U.K. and maybe Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Have you heard of the Five Eyes intelligence arrangement? The Five Eyes are Australia, New Zealand, United States, U.K., and Canada, five countries, and they have a tacit agreement not to spy on each other and to share intelligence as \u2013 (interruption) what are you laughing at? That\u2019s actually what it\u2019s called. It\u2019s called Five Eyes. Five nations not spying on each other and sharing intel because of the coordinated unified aspect of Western civilization. U.K., Canada, United States, Australia, New Zealand. English speaking, for the most part, countries.<\/p>\n<p>And the Five Eyes work together to shield each other, not spy on each other ostensibly. But here the Brits were spying on an American, Donaldus Trump. And the point is that this was a coordinated and focused, concerted effort that could not have happened without the, at bare minimum, knowledge of the sitting president at the time, which was Obama.<\/p>\n<p>So Mr. Hanson\u2019s piece here in detailing \u201cwhen that failed, when that didn\u2019t work, they tried this; when that didn\u2019t work, they tried this.\u201d Okay, after all of this, has it become institutionalized? Could it happen again? Well, no, because if a Republican\u2019s pants were on fire I don\u2019t think a Republican would engage in this kind of stuff, putting spies, you know, coordinating with the DOJ and the FBI and the Brits, getting the CIA to plant spies on a Democrat presidential campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The media found out about that, can you imagine &#8212; reverse all of this. Reverse the parties and then take the media out of it and put the media in it as a Democrat spy organization on its own. Can you imagine if the media found out the Republicans had done what Democrats did, the media would be devoted to exposing it and destroying everybody involved.<\/p>\n<p>The question is, now that it has been done and now that they have seen that they can do it, even though some of them got fired, and even though to date it hasn\u2019t worked, but has it really not worked? For two years this administration has been in a straitjacket. For two years this administration\u2019s been sitting there at 45% approval instead of 55%. For two years this administration been operating under a cloud of suspicion that\u2019s only got deeper and thicker.<\/p>\n<p>So to say that it didn\u2019t work is not true. It did work. The ultimate objective of getting rid of Trump and overturning the election results didn\u2019t work, but the next best thing did. Near paralysis of the Trump administration. They\u2019ve got people inside the Trump administration, in the West Wing, who are still trying to sabotage it. They\u2019ve got the administrative state &#8212; which is now called the deep state &#8212; but the administrative state of all these unelected bureaucrats populated by leftists for decades now working to undermine Trump on every serious policy initiative.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-287134\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100418-Liberals-Seek.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100418-Liberals-Seek.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/APP-100418-Liberals-Seek-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>So the question is not would the Republicans do this, but now that this has become institutionalized as part of the weaponry of political opposition to an elected president, will the Democrats do it again? Well, I\u2019m gonna tell you something, folks. It\u2019s much easier to think that something that has happened can happen again than to believe that something that has never happened will happen.<\/p>\n<p>And so since it has happened and since to date everybody involved has gotten away with it in terms of not being charged, not having gone to jail, at worst some of them have lost their jobs, but they are still writing books, and they\u2019re getting pensions, and they\u2019re considered heroes by people on their team for the valiant effort in which they engaged. So damn straight it\u2019s gonna happen again.<\/p>\n<p>You go look at 2000. George Bush was treated as illegitimate because of the Florida recount. The Democrats never accepted his legitimacy. And it covered, it flavored, affected the coverage of the Bush administration every day by the media. They attempted to sabotage the War on Terror and the war in Iraq. And I have to whisper this \u2019cause &#8212; don\u2019t tell anybody this, but I\u2019m not even sure that weapons of mass destruction, that whole thing was not a contrived effort to embarrass Bush.<\/p>\n<p>Look at the intel people involved. U.K. Five Eyes. Everybody said Saddam\u2019s got weapons of mass. Slam dunk! Here are the photos. Here\u2019s Colin Powell at the U.N. presenting the evidence! To this day people think Saddam had \u2019em and somehow moved \u2019em out to Syria before we got there. That sounds viable.<\/p>\n<p>Other people think Saddam never had \u2019em. He was bragging about it. Loved being the big guy in the region bringing the U.S. to its knees. Loved showing the Iranians that the Iraqis were much more powerful against the U.S. than the Iranians were.<\/p>\n<p>But that was very embarrassing for the Bush administration, no weapons of mass destruction after a two-year national tour by President Bush, speech after speech in city after city laying out the case and giving all the credit in the world to the intelligence agencies of the United States and the United Kingdom worldwide, and there are no WMDs?<\/p>\n<p>Bush\u2019s second term was just as bad. George Bush 41 was treated in much the same way. Not as illegitimate, but still somebody that had to be gotten rid of. This is the group that Borked Robert Bork, attempted to Bork Clarence Thomas. So we get two years of Obama. They really thought John Kerry, if he\u2019d a just won 55,000 votes in Ohio, could have been president, thought his election was stolen from him.<\/p>\n<p>They didn\u2019t think Bush was gonna win reelection \u2019cause they thought they had destroyed him. But Bush was not a threat to their order, but to the Democrats he was illegitimate. And to the media he was illegitimate. He didn\u2019t really win. Well, Trump, same thing. He didn\u2019t really win. The Electoral College shows we don\u2019t need it anymore! They popular vote. No way Trump should have won. Hillary Clinton was due.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-244458\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/democrats-hate-us.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/democrats-hate-us.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/democrats-hate-us-300x128.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/>So Trump was illegitimate in every way. His policies are illegitimate; his existence is illegitimate; he\u2019s not legitimate as a human being; he\u2019s an ogre. I guarantee you this. If Trump wins election 2020, this stuff isn\u2019t stopping. I mean, there may not be another special counsel, they may not be the same things, but the overall effort to disqualify or delegitimize Trump will never end, and the next Republican president, if one\u2019s elected in 2024, is gonna get the same treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Once this stuff happens, you run the risk that it becomes institutionalized. And remember, people who read the New York Times, watch CNN, MSNB, don\u2019t think anything about this was illegitimate. They just think, wow, there wasn\u2019t any collusion, they didn\u2019t find any. But they don\u2019t have any idea what this really was.<\/p>\n<p>And so I\u2019m sure &#8212; I don\u2019t know how many &#8212; but a segment of the American population, it\u2019s perfectly fine that there\u2019s some guy like Mueller appointed to sit out there and make sure that Republican presidents don\u2019t try any fast ones. Virtually every deterioration and bit of corruption in our political system can be traced to left wing political operations.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not saying the Republicans are clean and pure as the wind-driven snow, but this kind of stuff doesn\u2019t even occur to them. They\u2019re too worried about what the media thinks of \u2019em to ever, ever even try a thing like this. So the question VDH was asking was rhetorical in terms of Republicans, but the fact that it\u2019s happened here and almost &#8212; I don\u2019t think we know how close we came here.<\/p>\n<p>I want you to sit and think, imagine if three weeks ago now, was it four weeks when the Mueller report was issued at 5 p.m. on a Friday during March Madness? Imagine that the summary for the attorney general said that there was evidence that Trump had colluded with Russia. Can you imagine what this country would have been the past four weeks? You don\u2019t even want to think about it. It would be over.<\/p>\n<p>And this is how close we came on something that has been completely illegitimate from the day it began. There has never been any shred of evidence suggesting that the original fear or claim, i.e., a foreign power, stole an election. There was never any evidence that there was even any involvement. the Trump campaign. That\u2019s how close we came.<\/p>\n<p>So it\u2019s a legitimate question, I think. Can it happen again? Well, since it\u2019s happened once, and since everybody involved to date has gotten away with it, why won\u2019t it happen again?<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Let me just put it to you this way. If Trump had not fired Comey, I am convinced that Comey would have, quote, unquote, found some collusion. You can bet on it. Especially with the help of McCabe and Strzok Smirk and Page, Bruce and Nellie Ohr, all of whom would have remained in place. You can damn well bet there would have been.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Are we gonna have an ongoing named special counsel to sit in daily assessment of any president going forward?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":305523,"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>VDH: Does Every President Get a Special Counsel Now?
