<\/p>\nRUSH: Let\u2019s grab sound bites 12, 13, and 14. CNN did it again. They sent a reporter. They got a visa, they got a reporter to get a visa and they sent this reporter to Pittsburgh, the country of Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They wanted to find out what the natives thought about what\u2019s going on in Washington, D.C. They sent National Correspondent Miguel Marquez to go talk to voters outside Pittsburgh and take their temperature on the impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump. And here is the first sound bite.<\/p>\n
MARQUEZ: What do you think of impeachment?<\/p>\n
JAMES DILLIE: It\u2019s bull.<\/p>\n
MARQUEZ: (voiceover) James Dillie, a coal miner and his stepson Roc Dabney are huge supporters of the president, proudly displaying Trump flags like this one. They see impeachment as Democrats trying to reverse the outcome of 2016.<\/p>\n
JAMES DILLIE: I think they\u2019re just head hunting. They\u2019re mad they lost and just trying to get him out.<\/p>\n
ROC DABNEY: The Democrats, they\u2019re just like grabbing for straws really.<\/p>\n

MARQUEZ: (transition to William and Jacquelyn Krachala) You voted for Donald trump, you voted for Hillary Clinton. Has anything changed?<\/p>\n
JACQUELYN KRACHALA: No!<\/p>\n
WILLIAM KRACHALA: I think he\u2019s a crook.<\/p>\n
MARQUEZ: Jacquelyn couldn\u2019t be clearer on impeachment.<\/p>\n
JACQUELYN KRACHALA: Well, that\u2019s ridiculous.<\/p>\n
MARQUEZ: (voiceover) Bill, a lifelong Republican is as opposed as ever to Donald Trump. But impeachment?<\/p>\n
WILLIAM KRACHALA: I don\u2019t know whether impeachment would solve anything or not, it just would create a lot of upheaval. But I\u2019m hoping to hell that he gets elected out of office.<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right. Now, you look at this in one way, CNN if they could, would have nothing but, “Yeah, impeach him, get rid of him yesterday, get rid of him tomorrow, I can\u2019t stand the guy!” Their ideal would be to be able to go find a bunch of Trump voters who\u2019ve had it, don\u2019t like the guy, think CNN is the gospel, yes, get rid of him. They couldn\u2019t find any. How do we know they couldn\u2019t find any? ‘Cause they didn\u2019t put them in these sound bites, didn\u2019t put them in these reports. Here\u2019s the next sound bite of Miguel Marquez reporting about what voters outside of Pittsburgh think of impeachment.<\/p>\n
MARQUEZ: Cody Spence, a registered Democrat in 2016, was struggling to pay for healthcare. Today his financial situation has improved. He credits Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
SPENCE: I don\u2019t think at this point that there is a reason to impeach him. You get some hard evidence that the people of the country can see, that\u2019s a different story.<\/p>\n
MARQUEZ: (voiceover) Some moderates question the wisdom of an impeachment fight now.<\/p>\n
SUSAN LUISI: Well, we\u2019ve already gone pretty far into this presidency. So do we really want to spend the last time of it impeaching someone who may or may not be elected again?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yeah, that\u2019s gonna be a recurring theme. Let the American people decide. What\u2019s wrong with that? These people are not gonna trust that. That\u2019s what happened in 2016. The American people decided the wrong way. That\u2019s what they\u2019re trying to fix! That\u2019s what they\u2019re trying to reverse! That\u2019s what they\u2019re trying to throw out!<\/p>\n
In the meantime, nothing is being done on things that actually matter to people. And remember, more and more Americans, whether this is good or bad, irrelevant for this discussion, more and more Americans think government\u2019s role is to make life easier for \u2019em. Government\u2019s role is to fix the cost of health care and the availability. Government\u2019s role is to lower the price of prescription drugs. Government\u2019s role is made up of things like this. And none of that is happening while the Democrats are solely focused on this.<\/p>\n
So you ask another question, or at least I do. The Democrats are not connecting, at least with the people that CNN dredged up in the foreign country of Pittsburgh. They\u2019re not connecting. Even the people that hate Trump. So what are the Democrats doing? In other words, who is the audience for what the Democrats are doing?<\/p>\n
Do you think these people know about the whistleblower? Do you think they\u2019ve heard his name? Do you think they know the whistleblower\u2019s a Pajama Boy from Harvard? Do you think they know that the whistleblower came from John Brennan and the CIA as an Obama holdover? Do you think they know this? No! Nobody\u2019s reported that until today. They don\u2019t know diddly-squat about it.<\/p>\n
Yet the media has sung the praises of the whistleblower, “Oh, we must listen! Oh, we must preserve his identity. Oh, this man is a godsend. Oh, this man is exactly why we have people in government doing the Lord\u2019s work,” blah, blah, blah. Who is the media\u2019s audience for this? It\u2019s not… Contrary to what people might think, it\u2019s actually not the American people. They are not attempting to literally inform the American people. They\u2019re trying to hoodwink them!<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/600-103119-CNN-Trump-4.jpg\")
They\u2019re using the grandiose nature of “process” to try to sway people. (dramatic voice) “This is big! Donald Trump is bad. Donald Trump is dangerous. We\u2019ve got people all over the government standing up privately, anonymously, saying, ‘Donald Trump is bad.'” But they don\u2019t dare put a name to whoever\u2019s doing it. They don\u2019t dare try to persuade with the reputation of the guy. They don\u2019t dare tell the American people who this person is and where this person came from and with whom this person has worked for most of his time in Washington.<\/p>\n
Oh, no! They don\u2019t dare do any of that.<\/p>\n
So who is their audience? Their audience, folks… Let me tell you who they\u2019re trying to bamboozle. The Republicans. As is always the case, they\u2019re attempting to intimidate and frighten and dispirit the Republicans in Washington. That\u2019s where this ammunition is being fired. And when they start to see Republicans in Washington say, “You know, the Republicans better get ready here. They better have a plan down the road where if this and this and that happens, they gotta be prepared to abandon Trump.”<\/p>\n
That\u2019s what they\u2019re trying to do here, folks, and that\u2019s what happens when you make the mistake of accepting their premise instead of not accepting the premise and throwing the charge right back at them that they are the ones who are illegitimate, that they are the ones thwarting the will of the American people, not Donald Trump, that they are the ones not doing the work they were elected to do. They are not representing the American people. They are not in the slightest bit interested in the American people, in truth.<\/p>\n
They want people to believe they\u2019re doing this “for the American people for the sake of the Constitution, for the sake of the country.” They\u2019re doing everything for the sake of themselves! They\u2019re spending taxpayer dollars on themselves, because they can\u2019t believe the guy beat them. They can\u2019t believe they still haven\u2019t been able to get rid of him. They are doing as much of this behind closed doors as they can, because they don\u2019t actually have faith and confidence that the case they\u2019re making would persuade the American people.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Thus, they have to create this gigantic, grandiose illusion that all of Washington is alarmed. (dramatic voice) “All of Washington is at a feverish pitch! The country is in a very precarious position with Donald Trump in the White House. Drastic action — immediate drastic action — is necessary!” This is what they\u2019re attempting to create, and their audience — the Democrat audience and the media audience — is the Republicans. Now, don\u2019t misunderstand. Of course they know they\u2019re gonna need public opinion, ultimately.<\/p>\n
But, my friends, I don\u2019t think they care ultimately. They\u2019re gonna go through with this regardless where public opinion is because they\u2019re now committed to it. The fact of the matter is the people in our government who do not care about public opinion are precisely the Democrat Party and the American left. They are the people who govern against the will of the American people. You didn\u2019t want Obamacare and you didn\u2019t want to lose your doctor. You didn\u2019t want to lose your coverage and you didn\u2019t want to pay a bigger premium.<\/p>\n
But all of those happened even after you were lied to about \u2019em. These are the people governing against the will of the people. This is my message, anyway. These are the people thwarting the will of the people. These are the people not interested at all in the will of the American people. They are arrogant, condescending superiorists who, in truth, don\u2019t think you or anybody else in America has the slightest sense to run your own life and to make your own political decisions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
