This is from Glenn Beck\u2019s website, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theblaze.com\/news\/internal-democrat-poll-shows-mismatch-on-impeachment\">TheBlaze.com<\/a>. And here is the pull quote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe claims that other freshman Democrats agree with him that the agenda of the party does not match the voters\u2019 concerns. And their internal polling supports that opinion.\u201d I don\u2019t know who the &#8220;he&#8221; is. Doesn\u2019t matter. What matters here is the internal, not ABC, CBS, NBC polling data. This is internal Democrat Party polling data.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPolling for the Democratic Party found that 54 percent of voters said that Democrats were more focused on impeachment than any other policy. But only 10 percent of voters believed that impeachment should be their focus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-322498\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/APP-091819-Nadler.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/APP-091819-Nadler.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/APP-091819-Nadler-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a Democrat Party internal poll. Ninety percent think the Democrats are way off and on the wrong track. See, this is why they\u2019re gonna be hitting the panic button, not just because of what it says on the surface, but why are they doing this impeachment business? There are two reasons. It\u2019s actually a combination of two.<\/p>\n<p>One is that many of these Democrats are as crazy, they are as poisoned with hatred as that faceless blob that makes up their base. Their Twitterverse of anonymous, nobody knows who they are radical, insane, angry, outraged liberals. They\u2019re ticked off they\u2019ve been lied to. They\u2019ve been promised that Trump was gonna be sent packing. They\u2019ve been promised that Trump colluded. They\u2019ve been promised that Hillary really won.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-320101\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/APP-082219-Trump-Points.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/APP-082219-Trump-Points.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/APP-082219-Trump-Points-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ve been promised that Trump was gonna be impeached. They\u2019ve been promised that Trump was gonna be go to jail. They\u2019ve been promised that Trump was gonna be revealed as a traitor, all of this stuff, MSNBC promised them, the New York Times promised them, CNBC promised them, MSNBC promised them, the Washington Post promised them, all of the experts and unnamed sources in all these places promised them.<\/p>\n<p>None of it has happened! Trump is still there! Trump is still president! He\u2019s in California raising money! He\u2019s right in their faces raising money. He\u2019s implementing his agenda. They\u2019re beside themselves. They are telling the Democrats, \u201cYou better! You better do what you said you were gonna do. You better get rid of this guy.\u201d So the Democrats, Nadler and this crew, are listening to this base. They think &#8212; this is the key &#8212; they think that their base is a majority of people in this country.<\/p>\n<p>So it\u2019s a combination of things. It\u2019s a combination that Democrats like Nadler and Steve Cohen and Pelosi, the rest of these people really, really hate Trump. They are frustrated all the get out they can\u2019t get rid of him. They want to get rid of him, they hate him. And then the other factor is that they think &#8212; their base is demanding this, too &#8212; they think over half the country\u2019s demanding this.<\/p>\n<p>This is the delusion in which they live. They believe over half the country wants Trump gone and has ever since Trump won. Now their own internal polling shows that 90% of the American people think the Democrats are going down the wrong road. That\u2019s not an insignificant number. Ninety percent, folks, and 54% think the Democrats are more focused on impeachment than anything, including climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats have also been frustrated by a lack of clarity on just what part of the impeachment process they have begun. They haven\u2019t even really begun. You see, they\u2019re trying to make these loco weeds think that they\u2019re impeaching, and they aren\u2019t. They haven\u2019t literally officially started it. They just want everybody to think so. And part of that was bringing Lewandowski in yesterday. And they were gonna score big time, they were gonna embarrass and humiliate Lewandowski.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-322484\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/APP-091819-Lewandowski-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/APP-091819-Lewandowski-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/APP-091819-Lewandowski-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Lewandowski was gonna open a doorway to help them get to Trump, and <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2019\/09\/18\/drive-bys-livid-at-democrats-for-botching-lewandowski-hearing\/\">Lewandowski smoked them by acting so dispassionate, so disinterested. It was classic.<\/a> The last thing Lewandowski was was intimidated by any of them. So now the Democrats and the media are ripping the Democrats on Capitol Hill to shreds for being incompetent.<\/p>\n<p>Now, there\u2019s another factor here. And we see that factor in this really embarrassing destructive effort by the New York Times to get rid of Kavanaugh.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here is Tom in Toms River, New Jersey. Great to have you, sir. Glad you waited. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you, Rush. I\u2019m a 30-year listener and student of the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I wanted to say that I believe Twitter is helping the Democrats commit suicide. They\u2019re pushing Nadler to keep pushing the impeachment hearings, and they\u2019re also giving the ability of the Democratic candidates for president to believe that people are actually in favor of all the socialist policies that they\u2019re advocating, and they\u2019re now free to say it. While I think Twitter&#8230; You know, they\u2019re thinking that 30,000 people commenting on something represents the majority of the United States, and that\u2019s not the case.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/19uaZPWuyzA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, I think there is a lot of truth to this. I have myself opined on elements of this. I think Twitter is destroying journalism. Now, I know some of you say (impression), &#8220;Rush, journalism isn\u2019t being destroyed. Those people are still as corrupt and they\u2019re still doin\u2019 as much damage.&#8221; I agree. I understand. But strictly from an objective standpoint of defining journalism and what it is, it is vanishing. Now, one of the tropes about journalism &#8212; one of the jokes &#8212; is that journalists have always been lazy, that the number one source for journalists was a fax machine.<\/p>\n<p>The reason is \u2019cause there\u2019s partial truth to it. How do you think something like that Center for Science in the Public Interest&#8230;? Which is two anorexics. The Center for Science in the Public Interest is two people, and if you saw a picture of \u2019em, you\u2019d think that they\u2019re dead and just walking around alive. These are the people that convinced the media that popcorn popped in coconut oil would kill you, that monosodium glutamate would kill you!<\/p>\n<p>They tried get Chinese food banned. It\u2019s two people wearing white lab coats with a fax machine and a logo, and they start mass faxing journalists. And because they are leftists and because they want to control what people eat and do, the media glommed right on to \u2019em. One of these clowns\u2019 names is Michael Jacobson. These people run around&#8230; They\u2019re not authorities on anything, but they were made so by the media.<\/p>\n<p>And then people (like I was talking earlier) said, &#8220;Well, the media is talking to them. They must be experts.&#8221; No. They\u2019re frauds. They\u2019re activists, like everybody else in media is &#8212; like everybody else in journalism is. So Twitter has become the substitute for media actually going out and talking to people. The most dreaded words I see when I\u2019m doing show prep is a variation of, &#8220;The internet blew up&#8221; or &#8220;X and such-and-such went viral,&#8221; or &#8220;Twitter went bonkers.&#8221; Who cares!<\/p>\n<p>What is Twitter? It\u2019s nothing but a bunch of anonymous people. But if the media can find a bunch of anonymous people &#8212; they have no idea who they are &#8212; who happened to be tweeting things the media agrees with, then what happens? The media reprints the tweets! And uses them as a substitute for majority public opinion. Now, Tom\u2019s point here is that they\u2019re only fooling themselves because Twitter is not majority public opinion.<\/p>\n<p>Twitter is a haven for outcasts, people with inferiority complexes, people with&#8230; I mean, there\u2019s exceptions, obviously. The top, trending hashtag on Twitter at this very moment is #LiarLewandowski. So the media\u2019s looking at this and saying, &#8220;Oh, wow! Look! Most Americans think Lewandowski\u2019s a&#8221; whatever, and it just takes \u2019em in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: It\u2019s a Democrat Party internal poll.
