RUSH: Grab sound bite number 25. I want to get this one in and out. If I don\u2019t do this right now when I\u2019m thinking of it, it doesn\u2019t fit with much else. But as a stand-alone, it\u2019s one of these enjoyable things. This happened on CNN. Jonathan Martin, our old buddy from way back in the days when he was at Politico — and he still sends me every New York Times story he writes now. Every time I mention getting one, he sends me a little follow-up note: “Great to know you\u2019re still reading my stuff.” Jonathan Martin.<\/p>\n

So there\u2019s this appearance that he did today. He was on with Kate Bolduan. Now, she spells her name B-o-l-d-u-a-n. Pronounced “BALD-win.” They were talking about women and sexist Democrats and sexism and racism and bigotry and homophobia and all this stuff, and Jonathan Martin shocked Kate Bolduan. She said, “You write” in the piece he has today<\/a> “there are Democrats who chastened by Hillary Clinton\u2019s defeat in 2016 who believe that a woman cannot win in 2020. Really?” She\u2019s stunned by this! She can\u2019t believe it that he\u2019s actually written this.<\/p>\n

So she said, “Really?” Is this really true?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

MARTIN: It\u2019s striking over the course of a couple of months this summer, talking to voters — not just at Warren events but events for other candidates — just how often you hear the same themes, and invariably those are the three issues that come up. It\u2019s, “What is she going to say when Trump calls her ‘Pocahontas\u2019?” because that\u2019s going to drown out her broader policy message. And I think having seen what Trump did in 2016, both to the Republicans and Hillary with the nicknames. They all say it bluntly, that they have PTSD from 2016 and that they are just skeptical to the point of being cynical about where the country is now on gender. They simply say 2016 proved that we are not ready for a female president and we just have to play it safe this time around.<\/p>\n

RUSH: He\u2019s talking about Democrat voters! He goes out and talks to Democratic voters. He\u2019s talking to Pocahontas voters. He\u2019s talking to Democrats. And they\u2019re down in the dumps because he\u2019s hearing that Democrat voters think the country is still so backwards, still so patriarchal that a woman doesn\u2019t stand a chance, and that Hillary Clinton is the clear and obvious evidence of it. This is a New York Times reporter saying this, and I don\u2019t know. I just enjoy it. Whenever they hear something that goes against the grain of their own conventional wisdom, you can see they\u2019re just not prepared for it.<\/p>\n

\"\"This is the last thing anybody at CNN was thinking about until a New York Times writer comes along and says, “By the way, you know, there\u2019s a lot of people out there, they think Trump is just going to spit her out. Just the nickname alone is going to beat her!” So I play this for you because I want you to always keep in mind: The media portrays the Democrats as assured and confident in their majority, that they are the majority, that America has become this anti-founding country that they seek. And it isn\u2019t and it hasn\u2019t. And whenever they get a comeuppance or the equivalent of a slap in the face to wake them up to reality, it\u2019s just fun to behold.<\/p>\n

Because the idea that the country is not ready to elect a woman? Do you realize how long ago they put that to bed? In fact, they think it\u2019s the exact opposite. They think the country is probably clamoring for a woman and has been ever since Hillary Clinton ran in 2008! What they don\u2019t see is that Hillary Clinton has lost twice. She lost in 2008 to the young, cool cigar\/cigarette-smoking Barack Hussein O — and then she lost to Trump. She lost. But they still haven\u2019t come to grips with it because, “She didn\u2019t lose! The Russians stole the election.” They create these myths.<\/p>\n

They create these lies and then they live them. So the only point here is don\u2019t assume these people are ever superior. Don\u2019t assume they are forever more confident. Don\u2019t buy any of the attitudinal stuff that you\u2019re exposed to each and every day in the Drive-By Media.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
