RUSH: Hi, folks. We didn\u2019t have a chance yesterday to do a postmortem on the Trump interview because the show ended<\/a>, so we didn\u2019t have a chance to discuss it. Now, I thought the president made news at least three times in that interview, maybe four, if news coverage of the president were conventional. But news coverage of the president isn\u2019t conventional.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Most of the coverage, we\u2019ve done a review of it, it\u2019s kind of hilarious. Most of them are ticked off that he was on with me and not with them. And that\u2019s what drove them in their commentary in the president\u2019s interview yesterday, which we will review.<\/p>\n

Also, Brit Hume said I went a little too far in saying that the Iranians are no different than the Democrats or that the Democrats are no different than the Iranians in their criticism of Trump. So we put together side-by-side Democrat comments, Iranian comments, and you decide. You tell me if you can even tell the difference. Can\u2019t wait for that. That\u2019s all coming up.<\/p>\n

Now, the Drive-By Media is going wall-to-wall coverage of the funeral of General Salmonella or Salami, whatever you want to call him, Soleimani. The media going wall-to-wall coverage of the funeral. We\u2019re getting to see all of the supposed mourners. Now, Buck Sexton, CIA analyst, former guest host of this program was just on Fox and he said what I told you yesterday.<\/p>\n

The regime goes door-to-door to ask you if you are going to the funeral, and if you say no, they leave your head in the house and take your body to the funeral. They literally do. They go door-to-door and they ask you if you\u2019re gonna join the mourners, and, if you say you\u2019re not, then that\u2019s the end of you.<\/p>\n

\"\"Now, look. It\u2019s a big country. There\u2019s some people genuinely distressed that the terrorist is dead, but this big crowd that you\u2019re seeing is — this is a totalitarian state. The people there don\u2019t have any free will and they don\u2019t have freedom of choice. And when the regime wants you to do something, you better show up and do it. He says they\u2019re going door-to-door. And he would know. And you get the mourners there shedding tears for their lost martyr.<\/p>\n

But where was this kind of coverage back in November? A million truly brave Iranians took to the streets back in November to protest the regime. Back then the Iranian government killed over 1,500 protesters. They put 7,000 more in jail. And we saw nothing about that in the American Drive-By Media. So after something like that, you have a million Iranians taking to the streets to protest the mullahs, essentially. Fifteen-hundred of them were killed, 7,000 put in jail. That\u2019s just last November.<\/p>\n

So now Soleimani disease and they go to door-to-door asking if you\u2019re gonna go to the funeral, and you say no, well, then you get added to the 1,500 dead or the 7,000 injured. And the ayatollah, the Ayatollah Khomeini, he was out there crying. I got a note from a friend of mine, Zev Chafets<\/a>. You remember Zev Chafets? He wrote a New York Times profile of me, and he wrote a great biography of Roger Ailes.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know if he wants to be attributed in this email. He sent me a note. He said, “Rush, when I saw the ayatollah crying yesterday, it made me think of the Hollywood producer in The Godfather waking up in bed next to the severed head of his beloved horse. Shock is the first emotion, then bluster comes next, and then you start to wonder what else the godfather is capable of. And ta-da, the singer gets the part in the movie after they leave your dead horse head in the bed next to you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, if the ayatollah is sane, that\u2019s how this is gonna come down, but that\u2019s a big “if” if the ayatollah is sane. The ayatollah says that Iranians, not proxies, should strike at America. Trump says that the United States will bomb 52 targets if a single American is hurt.<\/p>\n

\"\"By the way, Brian, throw that picture up. Yesterday — they say this is just a coincidence. Fifty-two F-35 stealth fighters were put on the runway at an Air Force Base in the middle of the country. It was just a coincidence, they said, 52 of \u2019em. Look at those gorgeous stealth fighters<\/a>. We\u2019re showing the picture to you on the Dittocam<\/a>, 52 of them on the gigantic Air Force Base runway.<\/p>\n

Conrad Black has a piece today, you know, I\u2019ve talked about this in generic terms in the past. It is about the ability that the United States single-handedly, singularly has to project power in the world. We have no match. There is not a single nation, maybe the ChiComs, but their development is behind ours. We still are the superpower of the world. And every enemy of the United States knows it.<\/p>\n

And I think this would be a good time to share with you some of the things that Conrad Black shares in his piece, \u201cAmericans Will Rally Around Trump on Iran.\u201d This is a piece found at American Greatness. And let me give you some great pull quotes of this piece.<\/p>\n

We are strong in our military and in our economy, and there is no match to either our military or our economy anywhere in the world. Now, Millennials and college students and high school students and leftists, if they are informed of that, are immediately opposed to it and frightened and scared. Some of them don\u2019t believe it. Some of them think that it\u2019s what\u2019s wrong with America. But responsible adults understand the absolute necessity of this.<\/p>\n

But just forget the necessity.\u00a0 Just the factual basis, the factual truth: There is no match.\u00a0 There is nobody that comes close in the world to matching our economy and our military, and particularly now. That\u2019s true at any time, whether we\u2019re in a recession, whether we\u2019re in an economic slowdown or now — when we are in an economic revival and roaring along — there certainly is no match.\u00a0 And you add our military to it, there isn\u2019t any match.<\/p>\n

Folks, nobody is even close, and they all know it.\u00a0 But here\u2019s the difference.\u00a0 That\u2019s always the case.\u00a0 There has been no match for the American economy and no match for the American military my entire life.\u00a0 Nobody\u2019s even close.\u00a0 The Soviet Union was a Third World economy with a First World military, and they could not sustain themselves.\u00a0 They were a nuclear threat, and that was it.\u00a0 But they had no morality acting as a foundation for their existence.\u00a0 They were destined to implode.<\/p>\n

\"\"What\u2019s different now is we have a president, we have a leader who has the gonads to use both of these — the economy and the military — to protect this country from little maggots around the world like this General Soleimani and ISIS and all the rest of them, \u2019cause that\u2019s what they were.\u00a0 They\u2019re not even in our league.\u00a0 It is only our restraint and our acknowledgment of our status as the world\u2019s lone superpower and our morality — the fact that we are the good guys — that stops us from literally wiping the world out of these people.<\/p>\n

But if you hit us, we now have a leader who is going to make you pay the price for it, and this is frightening and scary to children on the left, frightening and scary to adults who are children on the left.\u00a0 They have no comprehension of deterrence, no comprehension of strength.\u00a0 To them, strength, confidence, ability, exceptional economy, exceptional military? (sobbing) “Those are all examples of how unfair it is around the world! It\u2019s not fair that America so big. (crying) It\u2019s not fair that the rest of these people are so puny. It isn\u2019t fair!”<\/p>\n

So we should handcuff ourselves.\u00a0 They have no idea of the work, the sweat, the blood, the tears, the lives it took to achieve this status, this place in the world.\u00a0 To them, it\u2019s all the result of America being essentially a great crime, and I\u2019m not exaggerating that in terms of how they view this. People like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Crazy Bernie and the rest of the Democrat candidates for president.\u00a0 The United States is an accident: Madeleine Albright.\u00a0 United States is a colonial evil. The United States destabilizes.<\/p>\n

Nothing could be further from the truth.<\/p>\n

No audible Democrat, no Democrat out there speaking right now understands that Donald Trump cannot lose any of these arguments that he\u2019s having with Iran or with North Korea.\u00a0 We cannot lose.\u00a0 If we decide to engage, we cannot lose.\u00a0 It\u2019s not up for grabs.\u00a0 Land and sea-based power, cruise missiles. The United States has these in theater in both cases.\u00a0 We have Hellfires. We have cruise missiles. We have the military agents of destruction ready to launch on North Korea and Iran or any other enemy on a moment\u2019s notice.<\/p>\n

Not from here; from there.<\/p>\n

We are everywhere, and we have the ability to project power unlike any other nation in the world.\u00a0 We have the ability to de-calibrate the artillery that the North Koreans have aimed at South Korea from caves just north of the Demilitarized Zone.\u00a0 We could do this in five minutes.\u00a0 I talked to you yesterday about the two relatively new kinds of weapons that we have.\u00a0 One of them is a bomb that digs 200 feet down below the surface of the earth, wipes out anything in caves — including guns, including bad guys.<\/p>\n

The bottom line is the United States could destroy every strategically relevant military and economic target in Iran in 30 minutes.\u00a0 If we wanted to do this, we could wipe that country out in 30 minutes — and we have been able to do this for years.\u00a0 Now, we don\u2019t talk about it.\u00a0 It\u2019s not part of the daily news cycle. But this is one of the reasons why the American left so despises America, because we do have this ability, and nobody else does (sniveling), “And it\u2019s unfair, and it\u2019s a destabilization. It\u2019s lack of balance.”<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s also the fact that they do not look at the United States as the good guys in the world.\u00a0 I\u2019m not exaggerating.\u00a0 We have the ability to take out any meaningful strategic military target in Iran inside of 30 minutes.\u00a0 Everybody in our military knows it, and there\u2019s nothing they can do to stop it.\u00a0 Trump has made it clear that if there is any move by the Iranians to achieve nuclear military capability… Same thing with North Korea.\u00a0 He\u2019s told both.<\/p>\n

\"\"He\u2019s not gonna let \u2019em do it.\u00a0 He\u2019s gonna strike.\u00a0 He has told them both.\u00a0 The North Koreans have made fools of previous presidents, and the Iranians have too.\u00a0 Trump literally is a new sheriff in town.\u00a0 He\u2019s demonstrating that go he\u2019s not just a bunch of talk, not just a bunch of huffing and puffing.\u00a0 Now, the elimination of General Salmonella, General Soleimani, bolsters the mullahs\u2019 realization that Trump means what he says.\u00a0 In other words, the mullahs… Everybody thinks, “The mullahs are mad, and we better be frightened, man. We really ticked \u2019em off!”<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the other way around.\u00a0 The mullahs know damn well what happened. We took out the guy within 30 seconds of him getting off of his airplane.\u00a0 We had intel on the ground.\u00a0 We had intel in the air.\u00a0 We had spies.\u00a0 We had GPS.\u00a0 We knew where this guy was every moment of the day.\u00a0 In the real world, this is the kind of thing that shakes up the bad guys, not makes them mad and should create fear in us.\u00a0 These Iranian threats of retaliation are pure rubbish.<\/p>\n

Any retaliation that they engage in is gonna result in them being hit 10 times worse than whatever they dish out, and they know it.\u00a0 “George W. Bush and Barack Obama had a good record fighting terrorism, but they were both taken over the barrel by North Korea, as Bill Clinton was. The total failure of George W. Bush\u2019s Iraq invasion…” This is Conrad Black writing. “The total failure of George W. Bush\u2019s Iraq invasion was particularly evident last week, as the country is largely an Iranian satellite … and everybody knows that Obama gave the store away to Iran.”<\/p>\n

And what\u2019s happening now, folks, is that President Donald Trump “is taking it back.”\u00a0 We are not going to survive with the status quo.\u00a0 Trump is taking it all back, and the overwhelming majority of Americans are going to support the president.\u00a0 The Democrats have put their head in a noose, standing over the trapdoor, as they continue to side with enemies of this country because of their foggy view (through the lens of hatred) they have for Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here is Alan in Chicago. Thank you very much for waiting, Alan. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Rush, it\u2019s great talking to you. Rush, Iran\u2019s not gonna take us on. Iran has a $20 billion budget for their defense. We have an $800 billion budget. They won\u2019t attack us directly. What they\u2019ll do is use their surrogates. They\u2019ll go after the 60,000 troops we have in the Middle East, go after private installations and, mind you, that 60,000 is three times what we have in terms of border agents.<\/p>\n

I think, though, that the president should accept the Iranian invitation to leave and force the Europeans to act because my big concern, sir, is China. China\u2019s been building a navy, an air force, and nuclear forces, and, of course — and the president has begun to address that — they have satellite defenses that we have not countered and we have to, you know, begin to deal with.<\/p>\n

You know, to paraphrase something that Harold Brown once said vis-a-vis the Soviet Union, their nuclear policy, “They build; we build. They stop building; we build.” What it is with China is we fight; they build. We keep fighting; they build. And that\u2019s my biggest concern. That and the fact that the rest of the world, Japan spends less than 2% of their GDP on defense, less than 1%, in fact. Europe, about a half of what we do. No one seems to want to take on the battles other than us. And the strain it\u2019s putting on us is gonna undermine our economy ultimately.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So to paraphrase, you think the Chinese are biding their time waiting while we distract ourselves —<\/p>\n

CALLER: With a smile as broad as it can be.<\/p>\n

\"\"RUSH: Right. And we are engaging ourselves in areas of the world that really are not that relevant, in Middle East, I mean, we\u2019re energy independent. Meanwhile, the ChiComs literally are expanding all over the world. They are buying up and —<\/p>\n

CALLER: Absolutely.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — building properties in Africa, parts of that continent people don\u2019t even know about yet.<\/p>\n

CALLER: South America, right in our backyard. We have to be concerned about what they\u2019re doing to position their military. You know, we are focused on the wrong thing. And I think Donald Trump is right in wanting to get out of the Middle East, but Europe will have to deal with the consequences of that, India will have to deal with the consequences of that, the Saudis will, and let them step up and take that responsibility. It\u2019s their turn.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I understand that, but I just don\u2019t think any of them can. The Europeans can\u2019t —<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, they certainly can. Europe\u2019s economy is larger than ours. They spend —<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019m not talking about their economy, I\u2019m talking about their will. Look, they\u2019re led by a bunch of left-wing wusses.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Amen, you got that right. Absolutely.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Look, I got a break coming up. I want to ask you more about China, ChiComs, and what you think their ultimate objective is, \u2019cause while they\u2019re smiling and biding their time, they\u2019re not standing still. So you\u2019re right about this. But I don\u2019t think Trump\u2019s unaware of it.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Alan from Chicago is no longer with us. He either hung up or he got disconnected or one of the two.\u00a0 Look, any time something like this happens — any time the United States extends itself militarily, responds to an attack\/initiates one — you\u2019re always gonna have, “We\u2019re wasting our time! It\u2019s the ChiComs that are big threat,” or, “We\u2019re wasting our time! It\u2019s the Soviets that are a big threat. It\u2019s a waste.” You\u2019re always gonna have that, some people who will make a comment on that — and the Iranians are chump change.<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t have any big defense budget. We can handle the Iranians like you said we can. In 30 minutes, everything that matters to them is gone.\u00a0 Look, the Chinese are formidable, and they look at us as an enemy, but it\u2019s tempered by the fact that, folks, the world needs the U.S. market.\u00a0 I don\u2019t care what anybody says, money makes everything go around — and if you resent that, too bad.\u00a0 I mean, it does.\u00a0 And the United States economy is the market that the world will not lose.<\/p>\n

\"\"So a military strike that would wipe out the United States? That\u2019s not something that the ChiComs would have in mind.\u00a0 Not to say they wouldn\u2019t use military strikes.\u00a0 They could take out… If they wanted to show force, they could hit military installations all throughout the Pacific, ours.\u00a0 They could try to take out some aircraft, any number of things to show their ability and so forth.\u00a0 But then the risk involved in doing that is such… If they think that such military action\u2019s not necessary to achieve their goals, then they\u2019ll never take it anyway.<\/p>\n

But they are ramping up to be able to project power.\u00a0 They\u2019re ramping up to be seen as having the ability to project power.\u00a0 It\u2019s a deterrence.\u00a0 And they\u2019re no doubt competing with us in this region.\u00a0 Now, we\u2019re got trade negotiations going on now.\u00a0 You know, I think the president likes Xi Jinping, and he thinks that he can succeed in rearranging the trade deals or the trade agreements that we have that can result in the current disadvantages that we experience — which are purposeful — being reversed.<\/p>\n

But I guess the point is, the Chinese are not sneaking up on us.\u00a0 It\u2019s not as though our hitting General Soleimani means that we\u2019re distracted and not aware of what the ChiComs are doing.\u00a0 And this is the point that a lot of people try to make.\u00a0 “You know, we\u2019re really misfocused here, Rush. We\u2019re working here on the Iranians, we\u2019re in the Middle East, and that\u2019s really not the problem! The ChiComs inching up on us, buying property everywhere, building all those islands off the coast of the mainland.”<\/p>\n

We know all of this.\u00a0 They\u2019re not sneaking up on anybody.\u00a0 We got spies; they\u2019ve got spies.\u00a0 We have cyber abilities; they do.\u00a0 So it\u2019s… I don\u2019t want anybody to get the impression that ChiComs are sneaking up on us and making advances that we\u2019re not aware of and that we\u2019re not prepare to repel or to deal with.\u00a0 Certainly not this administration, by the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
