RUSH:\u00a0 Okay.\u00a0 A little pop quiz-type question for you, folks, here just to build on the brilliant and salient points advanced by me, your host, today.\u00a0 The Democrats and the Drive-By Media are attempting to brand us as racists. Trump is attempting to brand The Squad and the Democrats as anti-American. (interruption) Who is going to win that branding battle, do you think?\u00a0 (interruption) Oh, you think Trump is going to win that branding battle? (interruption) You think…? (interruption) You think Trump has already won the branding battle? You think Trump has won the branding battle big time?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Well, I called the Trump strategy on Monday<\/a> as trying to make The Squad the face of the Democrat Party, and that means as socialists and radicals and so forth, and… (interruption) Mmm-hmmm. (interruption) Well… (laughing) So the Official Program Observer says to me, “When is the last day that one of the Democrat presidential candidates has been in the news?\u00a0 I mean, in the news for having done something in the campaign or said something?”\u00a0 Well, it\u2019s a good question.\u00a0 I did see excerpts of… I guess it was a town hall.<\/p>\n

It was very… It was so sycophantic.\u00a0 It was some woman interviewing Kamala Harris on CNN.\u00a0 It was like they\u2019re almost afraid to ask her questions.\u00a0 “Forgive me for asking, but Medicare for all?”\u00a0 “(Snort!) Well, everybody wants it, and we can\u2019t afford not to do it.” (sputtering) “Okay.\u00a0 I really appreciate you letting me ask that.\u00a0 Uh, uh… W-w-what about health care for illegals?\u00a0 I — I heard you say that if…” “Don\u2019t lump me in with everybody on that! How dare you ask me that, by the way.<\/p>\n

“What gives you the right to ask me a challenging question? Where am I? We\u2019re on CNN! Who are you?”\u00a0 “Sorry! Sorry! (sputtering) I didn\u2019t… I — I — I have to… You know, I have to ask some of these questions.”\u00a0 “Well, not to me you don\u2019t.\u00a0 Ask them of Bernie Sanders, but not me. I\u2019m Kamala Harris! I don\u2019t get this kind of question.” I saw that.\u00a0 But you\u2019re right.\u00a0 I haven\u2019t seen a Democrat candidate… Bernie\u2019s in the news. He\u2019s ticked off about something.\u00a0 He\u2019s being treated unfairly.\u00a0 The news about the Democrat…<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll tell you what the news is.\u00a0 The news is about them in terms of how they\u2019re all faring in the polls, but they themselves are not making any news.\u00a0 The people making news on the Democrat side is The Squad.\u00a0 Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib and Aryanna Pressley — or Ayan, whatever, Pressley, whatever her name is — the four of The Squad.\u00a0 And they\u2019re not making news in favorable ways.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
