RUSH: We have the headlines: “Trump Slams Biden Ahead of Competing Events in Iowa<\/a>.” “Trump Criticizes Biden Before Departing for Iowa.<\/a>” No, no! Trump responds to Biden criticizing him 75 times! Trump\u2019s not attacking anybody. Trump doesn\u2019t attack. He defends himself. It\u2019s plain as day. Trump will leave you alone. But if you go after him, he\u2019s gonna hit back, and he\u2019s gonna be hit back like Obama: Three times as hard. Obama says, “If they bring a knife, we bring a gun.”<\/p>\n

You know, Biden attacking Trump, mentioning Trump\u2019s name 71 or 75 times, whatever? Is that all there is to the Democrat campaign, just anti-Trump? They\u2019re making a huge mistake. I\u2019ve called them out on this before, and I ought not say this too loud, and you all ought to not tell them I\u2019m saying this. But they are under a severe misperception, misconception. They are just grossly wrong if they think — and I\u2019m sure they do. This is the thing. Their psychology is so warped.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a thing with the media too. They think that everybody thinks like they do. They\u2019re outraged by Trump; they think all of America is. They think everybody that voted for Trump is embarrassed. They tell themselves this. It\u2019s psychological, folks. It\u2019s not just a calculation. They do get caught up in all this. They are so self-absorbed that they make the mistake of assuming that they represent the vast majority of popular thinking, of popular thought, popular morality.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And they\u2019re assuming that everybody who voted for Trump or the vast majority of them are now embarrassed by it and repulsed by Trump. So it seems like the Democrat presidential campaign is totally, totally anti-Trump. It\u2019s not about anything else. Meaning: It\u2019s not about issues. They\u2019ll throw an occasional climate change reference in there, but it\u2019s clear that they really believe their ticket back is to just do nothing but rip and talk about and criticize Donald Trump — which, I\u2019ll tell you.<\/p>\n

By the time 2020 comes around, it\u2019s gonna get old because that is all they\u2019ve done, and it just bounces off. The Mueller report was nothing. All the Trump-Russia collusion was nothing. It\u2019s kind of interesting to see. Because we\u2019re dealing with people, I think, who have now descended into serious psychological disorder territory, collectively, as a movement — including the media and as a party.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, we\u2019re rolling tape on it. The president on the way to the helicopter, some of the best interchanges with the press that he has, he\u2019s on fire here. He just told the press, he just got a beautiful letter from Kim Jong-un in North Korea, beautiful, beautiful letter, portends a great, great future. Details coming up.<\/p>\n

He said there\u2019s a secret element of the just passed deal with Mexico that he\u2019s gonna let Mexico announce in due course. Big, big part of the deal\u2019s, a big secret, Trump\u2019s gonna let them announce it. Said we did this together in the last three days, and we could fix this, we could fix everything going wrong at the border in 15 minutes if the Democrats would just sit down, but the Democrats won\u2019t.<\/p>\n

The Democrats are responsible for the increase in drugs coming in, the increase in illegal immigration, the increase in disease, the Democrats and their intransigence and the entire problem that we\u2019ve got here. He\u2019s on fire. Press sounds like a bunch of little Romper Room sixth graders shouting questions at him and he just revels in this. He revels toying with these people.<\/p>\n

The one thing that Trump has in these circumstances is the truth. He\u2019s got the truth of his administration, his policies and so forth. And they don\u2019t want to hear it and they don\u2019t understand it. They\u2019ve got Trump keeping promises. They don\u2019t understand that. So we are rolling on it. And they just released the tape. I think Trump\u2019s already on the copter on the way to the airport to get on Air Force One to go out and be insulted by Biden in Iowa. We\u2019ll chop this up and make bites out of it and have it for you ASAP.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay. Let\u2019s go to the audio sound bites. Donald Trump this afternoon White House lawn on the way to Marine One helicopter before leaving on his trip to Iowa. He spoke with reporters. One reporter shouted (impression), “Hey, in a speech today, Joe Biden is gonna call you ‘an existential threat to the United States.\u2019 What do you say to Joe Biden, Mr. President, huh?”<\/p>\n
