<\/p>\nRUSH: Now, we\u2019ll deal with this poll here when we come back in just a second. I\u2019m gonna show you about polls taken this far out, and I\u2019m gonna show you where Bill Clinton was gonna lose in a landslide.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll show you where Gary Hart was gonna be win in a landslide, where John Edwards was gonna win in a landslide. I\u2019ve got all this polling data that I went back and looked at to make the case that you ought to be ignoring anything that says Trump is gonna lose in a landslide right now \u2019cause it doesn\u2019t matter. They are trying to create and shape public opinion. They are not reflecting it as it exists.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: Drive-By Media out of their minds today over polling data that shows Donald Trump\u2019s gonna lose in a landslide, they can\u2019t wait, they wish it was happening today so we put together a montage. Cecilia Vega, ABC; John Berman, CNN; Peter Alexander, NBC; Savannah Guthrie, NBC; Gayle King, CBS; Joe Scarborough, PMSNBC; Mary Bruce, ABC. Here we go…<\/p>\n
VEGA: New poll showing Biden with a, quote, “landslide-sized lead.”<\/p>\n
BERMAN: The poll shows the president trailing in head-to-head matchups against all of the leading Democratic hopefuls!<\/p>\n
ALEXANDER: …polls that show him behind six of the top Democrats.<\/p>\n
GUTHRIE: New national polls that may serve as a warning sign for President Trump heading into the 2020 race.<\/p>\n
KING: The poll calls Biden\u2019s 54-40 advantage a landslide.<\/p>\n
SCARBOROUGH: …absolutely trounced by Joe Biden, absolutely trounced by Bernie Sanders.<\/p>\n
BRUCE: The Trump team was taken aback by some of these results. The president\u2019s reaction? He was reportedly livid.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Right. Okay. So Trump\u2019s in the White House doing whatever he\u2019s doing, and they bring him the poll. “Mr. President! Mr. President! Look at this! Joe Biden is winning in a landslide,” and Trump gets livid. Trump would not get livid. I know Donald Trump. That\u2019s not him. They\u2019re trying to make Trump look like the Hitler. You know the Hitler parody videos, Hitler learns that Joe Biden plagiarized him or some such thing? All these things are out there, and they portray Hitler as a maniac going nuts, breaking his glasses, threatening to kill people.<\/p>\n

Well, it was from an actual movie, and this is what they\u2019re trying to portray Trump, as sitting there, minding his own business, masterminding all of this stuff, and they bring him bad news and he goes nuts. He\u2019s not gonna get livid over this. It doesn\u2019t matter. But that\u2019s the image they want to create. Here\u2019s Maggie Haberman, who was on CNN today. John Berman interviewing her. “You\u2019ve been writing about the anxiety in the White House and also the explanation inside the White House for what the president\u2019s doing with Joe Biden.”<\/p>\n
HABERMAN: The campaign has its own internal polling that shows Joe Biden beating President Trump. Now, people who have seen the polls say that, actually, there\u2019s other numbers that are better for the president within that polling, but the president did not like reports about the fact that his own polling showed that he was behind. He wanted aides to push back on that and counteract that publicly, denying that it showed what it showed.<\/p>\n
RUSH: So we\u2019re back to another same, old, recycled: Trump is shown news he doesn\u2019t like, orders the staff to lie about it. As though the staff is automatically predisposed to sabotaging Trump. The staff every day is prepared to go out there and do nothing but talk about bad news until Trump\u2019s gets hold of \u2019em and tells \u2019em to not do it.<\/p>\n
I mean, the picture they are painting of the administration of Trump in it and what\u2019s going on in the White House is infantile and it\u2019s irrelevant and the White House and the RNC are denying the New York Times story, which we got Kayleigh McEnany, who was in last night on the Fox Business Channel, we got a sound bite from her denying it, then I\u2019ll share with you the polling data that we went back and researched. It\u2019s NBC polling news, but it shows the same stuff here. And it was nowhere near being correct.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: So last night on The Evening Edit (this is the Fox Business Network), Kayleigh McEnany, who\u2019s from the RNC, was asked the following questions: “Okay. This New York Times polling says that after being briefed on this devastating 17-state poll that shows Trump losing in a landslide that\u2019s conducted by his campaign pollster, Mr. Trump told aides to deny it.”<\/p>\n
MCENANY: Never heard those instructions. Second, Joe Biden winning Texas is a pipe dream. That\u2019s not happening. Third, I would note, go back and revisit the polling between Hillary Clinton and President Donald Trump at this point in the cycle, \u2019cause our internal polling shows that when president is against a defined Democrat, he wins the election.<\/p>\n
BLAKE BURMAN: So is that generic internal polling that doesn\u2019t look necessarily strong?<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-2.16.26-PM-e1560363469927.png\")
<\/p>\n
MCENANY: Our polling… We are confident in our polling. We are confident where the president stands. A defined Democrat, Joe Biden among them, will lose to the president. We are confident in Iowa, confident in Florida and Ohio and we\u2019re making no headway. In fact, we\u2019re looking at Oregon. We\u2019re looking to potentially put resources there. So we\u2019re very confident not just on holding the map, but expanding the map.<\/p>\n
RUSH: So the campaign is denying the Maggie Haberman story that there\u2019s internal polling that shows Trump also losing big to Biden and that Trump has told his staff to lie about it. Now, we all know what\u2019s going on here. You all know what\u2019s going on. You all know what\u2019s going on here so well, I don\u2019t even need to tell you what\u2019s going on. But there\u2019s always “for those in Rio Linda.” So why would they start talking about Biden winning in a landslide now?<\/p>\n
This is not just Biden beating Trump. It\u2019s not just some of these other Democrats beating Trump. It\u2019s in a landslide. Now, the first Democrat primary votes are not for seven months, ladies and gentlemen, and the presidential election is 12 months after that. The first Democrat primary votes are in seven months. We don\u2019t even know if Joe Biden will be able to swallow in seven months. There… I\u2019m just illustrating: We don\u2019t know!<\/p>\n
It\u2019s impossible to predict these things!<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: Now, why, ladies and gentlemen, are the polls already predicting a landslide? Seven months before the first Democrat primary vote is cast, we got a poll out that shows Biden and the rest of these clowns beat Trump in a landslide. I know you know. So that when Trump wins, here comes the allegation of foreign intervention again.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re gonna set the stage that this election is over a year and a half before it happened, just like they did with Hillary and Trump. They\u2019re repeating history. Hillary won every poll, led every poll, in some cases landslide victory. They\u2019re doing it again because they are not innovative.<\/p>\n
They have to go back to the past, try to modify the past, relate it to the president, relive the old glory days and they\u2019re now doing this. Trump is gonna lose in a landslide so that when Trump wins there must have been some kind of interference. There must have been some cheating. There must have been some fraud. It must have been the Russians again and, see, Mueller missed it and we gotta start it up all over again.<\/p>\n
I have to take another brief, obscene profit break.<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right. February of 1995 NBC News, February \u201995, the election is November of \u201996, Bob Dole defeating Bill Clinton by six points, February 1995, 51-45. April 1987, Gary Hart is gonna beat George H. W. Bush by eight, 50-42, in April of 1987. The election was \u201988. George H. W. Bush wins. February 1983. Now, this election in 1984, Ronaldus Magnus won it with a 49-state landslide.<\/p>\n
In February of 1983, the polling data from NBC had Walter F. Mondull defeating Reagan 47-41. And in March of 1979 — this is when Ronaldus Magnus won in 1980 with a 47-state landslide — they had Jimmy Carter defeating Reagan 52-38 in March of 1979 — exactly like this garbage that\u2019s out there today. And there are more examples of this if we did even more research, but this is just what we put together here in a flash this morning.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: To Massena, New York, and Joe. Welcome, sir. Great to have you on the EIB Network.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Rush, a pleasure to speak with you. Longtime listener. Mega dittos.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Thank you, sir, great to have you here.<\/p>\n
CALLER: About this phony news, this phony poll which has Trump losing in a landslide.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yes.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Are these not the same people who told us that Hillary Clinton was a slam dunk, and also are these not the same people who in November of 2017, a year after Trump\u2019s election, also insisted that had the election been held again, he would have won again?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, yeah, it\u2019s the same people, it\u2019s the same polling data, and you can go back as I did moments ago to all kinds of previous years where eventual winners were predicted to lose in landslides, all Republicans, by the way. Mondull was gonna beat Reagan. Carter was gonna beat Reagan, Dole was gonna beat Clinton, Gary Hart was gonna beat George H. W. Bush.<\/p>\n
You go back and look at all of these polls that are taken a year and a half out from the presidential race and you can find pretty much every one of them was wrong, just as this one is today. But even if it\u2019s right, it\u2019s a wild guess. Nobody knows what\u2019s gonna happen between now and Election Day. It is silly.<\/p>\n
To make the point, I had to go look up the polls from a year and a half prior to each of these elections. I instinctively knew they were wrong, but to go get the actual results, I didn\u2019t remember them. Nobody\u2019s gonna remember this one, either.<\/p>\n
Remember what\u2019s going on here, folks. They\u2019re setting Trump up to lose in a landslide so that after he wins they can restart this business that he stole the election or cheated with somebody, the Democrats had it stolen from them, that\u2019s what they\u2019re setting up here again. Make no mistake about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
