He\u2019s got some hard hat guys sanding behind him. It was an infrastructure type gathering. This has been\u2026 it\u2019s so much fun to watch this. This guy, President Trump, he\u2019s like me. He can take any question on any subject and just nail it. They can\u2019t screw him up, they can\u2019t confuse him, they can\u2019t doublespeak him. He rams it down their throat.<\/p>\n<p>The big news today, the Democrats &#8212; we\u2019ve got the audio sound bites \u2013 the Democrats and the media are livid, are outraged that Trump continues to blame Obama for the Iran nuke deal and he continues to say that Obama deposited $150 billion, $1.8 billion in cash on the tarmac in Iraq. And the Drive-Bys, Andrea Mitchell, CNN (imitation), \u201cHe didn\u2019t do it. He keeps bringing up Obama. Why does he keep bringing Obama up?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-333081\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-3-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And he brings this up again, and these hard hat guys standing behind him, whoever the guests are in the White House, they start laughing. They\u2019re having the grandest time, just now concluding it to coincide with the beginning of this program. The president\u2019s on schedule today. There was a period during this little presser where the president was talking about Iran and how there\u2019s never gonna be, they\u2019re not gonna get a nuclear weapon. He\u2019s told \u2019em. There\u2019s not gonna be a nuclear weapon and America\u2019s never gonna be a socialist country.<\/p>\n<p>And he said (paraphrasing), &#8220;Now, look. We gotta keep in mind in here, Iran could be waiting. They could be hoping that some of the Democrats win in 2020. They could be waiting for a weaker president, like Biden or maybe Fauxcahontas.\u201d He said \u201cFauxcahontas\u201d and these guys standing behind him looked at each other, jabbed each other, and started laughing. And of course the media in the room is seething. The media in the room privately, quietly outraged that Trump continues to disrespect the people that they like, the Democrats. &#8220;Why does he call her Fauxcahontas?&#8221; they keep asking themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Folks, it was great. It\u2019s a joy to watch this stuff, because he has them in the palm of his hand. And they continue to live with this belief that they are circling Trump and that they\u2019re getting closer to wiping him out and destroying him. And each time they adopt this attitude or think they\u2019re getting close, he just shuts \u2019em down. And with these hard hat guys that were standing behind him who were the reason for the White House briefing today, the White House meeting, when you see these guys start laughing at the way the president\u2019s communicating, you can see that they love him and that they\u2019re just having the greatest time.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re happy to be there. And you know that this irritates the media even more. And irritating the media\u2019s a big deal because that\u2019s the same thing as irritating the Democrat Party.<\/p>\n<p>Pressure is mounting on Pelosi within her own party to send the articles of impeachment over to the Senate. In fact, you hear what the Turtle said, Mr. Snerdley? The Turtle said this is a challenging time to create bipartisan agreement, but the Speaker has managed to do the impossible. She has created growing bipartisan unity in opposition to her own reckless games with impeachment because more and more Democrats are now throwing in the towel, essentially, and signaling that they want Pelosi to send the articles of impeachment over and get this show on the road because they understand nothing is going to come of this, and they understand the Turtle is not gonna change the rules to accommodate her or the Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>The rules are gonna be the same as they\u2019ve always been for impeachment in the Senate, specifically here the rules that were in place during the Clinton impeachment. But we now know, by the way, we now know why Pelosi is holding the articles \u2013well, I mean, we know that. But I mean we have learned where she got the idea. You know where she got the idea? TIME magazine says she got the idea from watching John Dean on CNN.<\/p>\n<p>Now, isn\u2019t that choice. They\u2019re always ripping Trump for watching cable news, for watching Fox News. And now we find out that Pelosi gets the idea for holding onto the articles from John Dean and an appearance he had on CNN.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-333075\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-ZZ-APP-Rush-EIB.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-ZZ-APP-Rush-EIB.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-ZZ-APP-Rush-EIB-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The president was asked about Mike Lee. Mike Lee had an eruption after the briefing yesterday and thought it was outrageous. You know what the root of it is? I finally found out what it was. The secretary of defense in the briefing said, &#8220;You know, you guys, you really you shouldn\u2019t spend any time debating this. We need to get moving on it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And Lee was outraged and livid over the fact that the secretary of defense, somebody in the defense department would come in and tell them not to debate things. It wasn\u2019t so mad he\u2019s upset at the policy or the procedures. It was what he was told by somebody from the Department of Defense.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Trump was asked about it, and classic Trump, he said, &#8220;I got calls from senators saying it was the best presentation ever. It was the best presentation they\u2019ve ever seen, the best presentation of any presentation.&#8221; Just like his phone call with the president of Ukraine was a perfect phone call. There\u2019d never been a better phone call, never been a more perfect phone call. The presentation yesterday was perfect. It was the greatest, it was the best presentation that the Senate ever got. He had many senators, he said, call and tell him that.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Mike Lee and Rand Paul want information that\u2019s hard to get. But they were &#8212; especially Mike Lee was not happy over this. Again, I gather it\u2019s because of what he was told. His interpretation was, you guys just ought to rubber stamp this and let us get on with it, and that\u2019s what he was upset about. There may be some specifics of the policy as well that he was upset about. But the presentation, look at the results.<\/p>\n<p>You know, Trump has always lived in a results-oriented world, not a process world. You know, this is one of the big problems that Washington people have in dealing with Trump. He\u2019s not a process guy. You know, at the end of a long day where nothing gets done but the process went down smoothly, Trump doesn\u2019t go home thinking, &#8220;Man, we had a great day today.&#8221; He goes home thinking, &#8220;This was a botch of a day. We didn\u2019t get anything done.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And bureaucracies are not, by definition, results oriented. It is not an exaggeration to say that many bureaucracies do not want solutions. Solutions mean that there\u2019s no longer any need for process. And bureaucrats love to do things to sustain the reasons for their own existence. The worst thing, in some respects, for bureaucrats is a solution to problems.<\/p>\n<p>Trump is a results-oriented person. He\u2019s not process &#8212; and that, I think, is one of the big disconnects. Process is an art form. Process, in Washington, is an art form. It\u2019s where nothing gets done but everybody is fooled into believing that progress is being made, that there are things being accomplished. Process is where people get to show off their brains. They get to show off their knowledge. Process is where people get to show off the awareness of the intricacies of how a bureaucracy operates.<\/p>\n<p>Trump doesn\u2019t care about any of that. Trump is purely results-oriented. If there aren\u2019t any results, then you haven\u2019t finished anything and you haven\u2019t done anything. So in Trump\u2019s world, there\u2019s a gigantic result here. We gotta rid of Soleimani. We threw Iran off balance big time. We have asserted our primacy. We have tightened sanctions even further. We have done more to bring Iran to heel than Obama ever did, and Obama was a pure process guy.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XGgGZElKKBw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>So Trump is looking at what he\u2019s done here as a major, major achievement, a great result. And he\u2019s up against people complaining about how he did it, about the process. You know, it\u2019s within the confines of the process that we are treated to such terms as bipartisanship and fairness and cooperation and working with the other side. All that\u2019s fine and dandy with Trump if you get to a result, if you get to a solution, if you accomplish something, if you achieve something, if you advance your own objectives.<\/p>\n<p>The objectives for bureaucrats and process-oriented people do not include results &#8212; and do not doubt me on this. It is a major stumbling point. Too much progress&#8230; Let me explain it this way. Washington has &#8212; and they\u2019re not alone. Many bureaucracies &#8212; local government, corporations, you name it &#8212; love to get accolades while not doing much. Make it look like they\u2019re all working hard. Make it look like progress is being made, but there aren\u2019t really any results.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s cleverness and there is gamesmanship and there\u2019s advantage and disadvantage, but actual results, not much, because Washington has for the longest time gotten away with the belief that getting results is really hard, really hard. &#8220;It requires bipartisanship. It requires a lot of sacrifice. It requires a lot of hard work. &#8221; The American people have gotten used to the snail\u2019s pace of whatever objectives government or Washington has.<\/p>\n<p>Trump is not of that world.<\/p>\n<p>If you decide that you need to do something like raise taxes, you do it. If you decide you need to reform health care, you do it. And it remains one of the greatest areas of disconnect that exists. And Trump is gonna continue to win these things because he\u2019s going to always&#8230; If you\u2019ve got results to show, if you\u2019ve got achievements to herald, if you have progress that you can demonstrate, you\u2019re always going to triumph over people who don\u2019t get anything done and who are upset by things getting done.<\/p>\n<p>Trump talked about all of the people walking around without arms and legs because of Soleimani, because of the Iranians, because of their IEDs, because of their acts of terror against the United States. He talks about going over to Walter Reed, seeing these brave people, and he doesn\u2019t understand. Why in the world does anybody want to defend Soleimani? Why does anybody want to take up the case for Soleimani after witnessing what the man has done, both individually and as a representative of the Iranian government?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-333079 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-2.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-2-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then Trump made the point that Iran got really bad when all that money flowed in. He keeps pounding the fact that the Iran deal was a bad deal, that it\u2019s expiring, that Iran will never have a nuke on his watch. He once again blames Obama. That just&#8230; He does this on purpose. He knows how to tweak \u2019em. He knows how to irritate \u2019em. He knows how to launch them into the stratosphere of anger and rage.<\/p>\n<p>He makes the point, &#8220;Look, Iran\u2019s not a wealthy country now. We\u2019re gonna see what happens. They\u2019re gonna be a different country. Sanctions are hurting them, and it\u2019s gonna be up to them to fix it.&#8221; Meanwhile, you have people like John Kerry &#8212; who\u2019s got ties to Iran &#8212; running around running around ripping into Trump! Trump is the bad guy. Trump is the problem.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re all now trying to deny that Obama did what he did, that Obama delivered them cash. One of the ways they\u2019re trying to deny it is, &#8220;Hey, we didn\u2019t give them any money. We owed them that.&#8221; No, we didn\u2019t! We didn\u2019t owe Iran any money. We froze some assets. Part of the sanctions. We didn\u2019t owe them anything. Obama delivering $150 billion to Iran was not us paying them back for money of theirs that we had taken. Trump continues to make this point.<\/p>\n<p>But in the midst of all this, look at the positioning.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has all these people defending Iran, defending Soleimani &#8212; or at least taking their side versus Trump. It\u2019s masterful, folks. These guys, these people &#8212; there are women in the group &#8212; are standing behind Trump and they\u2019re laughing. They\u2019re laughing as he tries to irritate the media. He knows how to do it. They\u2019re laughing when he\u2019s funny. It was just a great sight. To me, it cemented the bond that Trump has with the people of this country that voted for him &#8212; and even more now &#8212; and the disconnect that the media, the Democrats and the left are experiencing with the majority of people in the country.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: By the way, the press event today at the White House that I just characterized for you is on the deregulation that would allow construction projects to happen faster. It was exactly about that which I was making the point. Trump is a results-oriented guy. This was an event, was a press event on the deregulations the administration wants to do that would allow construction to happen faster. There was not one question on that, by the way.<\/p>\n<p>Not a surprise, but nevertheless, I wanted to pass it on, that the Drive-By Media did not ask one question about it. And, of course, the people there that were assembled standing behind and next to the president would be the beneficiaries of this. It\u2019s a plan to get rid of all kinds of red tape that raises the cost and lowers the speed and the pace at which projects get done, which would also reduce the opportunities for payoffs and graft and so forth.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-331995\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/APP-121919-IMPEACHMENT-Pelosi-Gavel-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/APP-121919-IMPEACHMENT-Pelosi-Gavel-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/APP-121919-IMPEACHMENT-Pelosi-Gavel-3-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The longer you string a project out, the more people you involve in it, the more hands can dip into the payment pool, so to speak. This is a classic event. This is a classic thing. I think one of the reasons Trump decided to bring the press in on this&#8230; I don\u2019t think he expected to get any questions about it, but I think he wanted people to know that this thing was taking place. Because this is another example, another instance of the Trump agenda which is actually aimed at making things better in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has long said that he wants to ramp up and really improve, rebuild America\u2019s infrastructure. It\u2019s one of the first things that he talked about after he was inaugurated. It was a big part of his campaign. In fact, it would be so expensive he originally proposed a public-private partnership to get it done where there be public money, government money, and private sector money pooled together to bring it up and make it happen at a more rapid pace than it otherwise would.<\/p>\n<p>It kind of languished, but this is the kind of thing. This is what average, ordinary Americans complain about. How many of you have had a remodeling project or any kind of a construction project? It never shows up on time. No matter what they tell you, it never comes in on time, and it never comes in on budget. It\u2019s gotten to the point now if you\u2019re building a house or you\u2019re adding a room or whatever?<\/p>\n<p>Whatever they tell you, add a couple of months and add a couple of thousand dollars so that you won\u2019t be disappointed when that happens. This is the kind of thing that, on a grand scale &#8212; building highways, remodeling airports or highway systems, this kind of thing &#8212; speed is of the essence &#8212; and, of course, getting it done right. So this is right in the wheelhouse. The Democrats are running around talking about spending all this money on health care, treating everybody as victims.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, here\u2019s Donald Trump &#8212; results oriented &#8212; wanting to be able to tick off successes after successes, achievements after achievements, and he\u2019s up against a bunch of process people. Now, if both parties are engaged in process as part of a campaign and trying to win the day on who\u2019s the better at process, then you\u2019ve got a dull, boring campaign. But when you\u2019ve got somebody demonstrably able to get results up against process people, the process people don\u2019t have a prayer, and that\u2019s what they know.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: This money &#8212; and there will be more coming up on the program today &#8212; I just want to tell you point-blank again: What Trump says about Obama providing the mullahs in Iran $150 billion is indisputable. He says Obama made it available, made available the money that paid for the missiles that were launched a couple of nights ago, and he\u2019s exactly right. In fact, it\u2019s undeniable.<\/p>\n<p>Even if the money was previously frozen, even if it was frozen for private Iran businesses, even if the money was frozen &#8212; even if a small part of that was money that Iran had paid for military equipment that they never got &#8212; it doesn\u2019t matter. It\u2019s not money that we owed them. These people are going to the brink of insanity to defend Obama.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-250910\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/FB-101317-Obama-Iran-Nukes.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/FB-101317-Obama-Iran-Nukes.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/FB-101317-Obama-Iran-Nukes-300x158.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>And you know what\u2019s happening? The more Trump calls Obama out&#8230; It is brilliant. This is what\u2019s been absent on our side dealing with the left for way too long. They spend every day ripping us to shreds, lying about us, false allegations &#8212; accusations of racism, sexism, bigotry, homophobia, all of that stuff &#8212; and we never hit \u2019em back, particularly when it comes to policy, except for Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Trump rips into Obama for Obamacare, rips into Obama for the Iran nuclear deal, rips into Obama for the Paris climate accords, never stops doing it. It\u2019s no wonder they wish he\u2019d stop tweeting. The reason they wish he\u2019d stop tweeting, Trump is single-handedly informing a large swath of the American people things they have not been told, points of view they have not heard if they exclusively pay attention to the Drive-By Media.<\/p>\n<p>Believe me, folks, this is all masterful. And the ongoing tweaks like at that press availability today, dumping on Obama again for dropping the cash. He knows it\u2019s just irritating them to no end, and he loves doing it.<\/p>\n<p>Let me sneak a phone call in first before we go to the break. San Leanna, Texas. This is Joey. Joey, great to have you with us, sir. How are you doing?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m doing great. What an honor it is to speak to you and to be the first caller. So right to my point. After listening to you for 25 years, I wanted to let you know I think there is someone out there who may be as good at tweaking the media, the Drive-Bys, as you are.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: That would be President Trump, I assume you mean?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Absolutely. I am so proud. And but for the fact that I have listened to you for so long, I don\u2019t think I would have spotted it. But I think he intentionally dropped two words into his tweets, cultural sites, to totally set up the media and get a really, really big narrative out to the most people possible.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-317043\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/APP-072619-Winning-TRUMP.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/APP-072619-Winning-TRUMP.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/APP-072619-Winning-TRUMP-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Because right after he put that, they put the Democrats right in support of Iran and the Drive-Bys in a position where you had Pompeo and several other people out there saying the biggest threat to Persian culture is the Iranian regime itself. And I thought that was significant, and I saw it all over my social media and the news in primetime and the Drive-Bys throwing that clip out there without even knowing what they were doing.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You\u2019re very shrewd. You know why you\u2019re really right about this? This is an example of arrogance, and arrogance is nailing the media and the Democrats countless times a day. The arrogance here is they think that Trump is an abject idiot. They think he is a low IQ buffoon. On the other hand, they believe they are of superior intellect, untouchable intellect, nobody smarter, nobody more clever, nobody with more wisdom. Nobody with more brilliance when it comes to strategic political tactics.<\/p>\n<p>So they\u2019re sitting there thinking Trump is an idiot, that they dwarf him in every meaningful category of intelligence. So, you\u2019re right. Trump comes along and tweets that he might even hit some of their cultural sites. What does this do? It forces the Democrat Party and their intellectual leadership, the Drive-By Media, to come to the defense of Iran.<\/p>\n<p>So here they are coming to the defense of Iran in their unstoppable, instinctive desire to hit Trump. And so Trump positions them perfectly. He draws them out. He makes them demonstrate what they try to hide. He makes them, in a fit of rage, expose their bias, or worse.<\/p>\n<p>One other thing before we go to the break. I\u2019ve noticed a couple, three callers in the last couple of days at the beginning of the call say, &#8220;Mr. Snerdley told me to get right to the point.&#8221; Let me explain to you why we do this. It has nothing to do with me not wanting to talk to you. It is that time here is precious. I don\u2019t want to tell you how many minutes of each hour is devoted to\u2026 but I\u2019m telling you, time is precious.<\/p>\n<p>And when you call and when Snerdley screens you and if you pass the process to appear on the program, it\u2019s because Snerdley has decided I need to hear what you want to say. Me hearing what your point is is what\u2019s gonna propel this. So he says get to the point. That\u2019s why you\u2019re here. It\u2019s not rooted in trying to shortchange you. It\u2019s not rooted in trying to be rude or any of that.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s trying to make your call the absolute best it can be for the people listening. Because the reason you get past the screening process is because of what you want to say, at least what you tell him you want to say. So the point is, get right to it. That\u2019s all it is. It has nothing to do with anything other than you looking the best you can as a caller.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here you go. This is another thing Trump said. I, by the way, have some sound bites of Trump\u2019s press availability coming up in the next hour, and it\u2019s great. If you missed it, you\u2019re going to hear some highlights. One of the things he said &#8212; and he got no questions on this, no questions at all on the purpose of the press availability and of his meeting today.<\/p>\n<p>He said, &#8220;The United States will not be able to compete and prosper in the twenty-first century if we continue to allow a broken and outdated bureaucrat system to hold us back.&#8221; Once again, the president taking right out after process in exchange for results. He is a results-oriented guy. He\u2019s being held back by bureaucracy and process, and he wants to eliminate all these roadblocks, all these regulations.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, we\u2019ve got more redundant regulations than we need for safety, environmental impact. This stuff is piled on top of itself to the point that projects are paralyzed. Do you know how long in 1930 to \u201934, somewhere in a four-year range, we built the Golden Gate Bridge, the Bay Bridge, and the Hoover Dam, in the Depression, four years.<\/p>\n<p>Look how long it took to rebuild one tower of the World Trade Center because everybody wanted their piece of it, and a whole host of other reasons as well. And infrastructure reform remains a huge part of Trump\u2019s agenda. And he\u2019s right that much of America\u2019s infrastructure\u2019s old, dilapidated, and needs to be remodeled, reformed, if you will. And he\u2019s making a big push to get it done. We\u2019ve got enough process going on, we have enough regulations piled on top of regulations that bog everything down.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: San Diego. This is Tony. Great to have you, sir. Glad you waited. You\u2019re up next on the EIB Network. Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. Thanks so much. This is a happy New Year for me. Been listening to you for a long time. This morning you commented about process versus results as to the reason why President Trump\u2019s so successful. Man, that sure rang a bell with me in terms of everything that he\u2019s fighting against in Washington, D.C., and really, I told my brother in Atlanta &#8212; I know he\u2019s listening &#8212; that Trump\u2019s developer mentality is what\u2019s gonna be able to deal with the process that goes on in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Cause when you\u2019re a developer and you\u2019re signing the front of the check, you get suck in these projects, I got friends out here that go, &#8220;Oh, yeah, 10 years, 15.&#8221; I have a friend that\u2019s ready to break ground next month, 20 years in the making to put bulldozers in the ground. And so it was just a great, great short, sweet statement that you made that just describes why this president is gonna be so successful. So I appreciate that.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-332370\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/APP-122319-Turning-Point-Rush-Trump-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/APP-122319-Turning-Point-Rush-Trump-001.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/APP-122319-Turning-Point-Rush-Trump-001-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>RUSH: Well, you\u2019re more than welcome. I\u2019m glad for that observation. And it\u2019s even more than that. It\u2019s not only the reason why he is going to succeed. If you\u2019re the only guy interested in results and progress, achievement and moving the ball, and everybody around you is interested in the process, you can\u2019t help but win when you have the power Trump has.<\/p>\n<p>But in addition to that, the process &#8212; there\u2019s another word for it. The establishment. There\u2019s another term for it. The deep state. Believe me, this system that they have that\u2019s been in place for, well, literally since World War II, that has slowly been adopted and believed by the American people, it just takes a long time to get anything done when government\u2019s involved. And they\u2019ve told us that and they\u2019ve conditioned us to accept it because it\u2019s so big and it\u2019s so intricate and we have partisanship here and partisanship over there.<\/p>\n<p>The longer the process goes on, there\u2019s a lot of power for people involved in the process. And having no solutions allows for never ending studies, which cost money, which are paid to people to conduct. I mean, it\u2019s a racket, in a sense. The illusion is that the process is advancing things, that the process is moving the ball. But it doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>I bet if you stop and think &#8212; and I can\u2019t, unfortunately, think of a specific off the top of my head. But if you think back over your recent years as you have watched government and you\u2019ve seen proposals for tax cuts and nothing happens for years or you\u2019ve seen a proposal for whatever policy issue that you support and it doesn\u2019t really ever happen, it might get close, you\u2019ve just become accustomed to the fact that this is how it works.<\/p>\n<p>And so here comes this giant wrecking ball thrown into the midst of this, the wrecking ball is named Donald Trump, and he doesn\u2019t live this way, and he doesn\u2019t conduct business this way, and he\u2019s not at all comfortable with or successful because of process. He\u2019s a results-oriented guy. So he\u2019s pushing for results, pushing, pushing, pushing, and look at what all has happened in just three years, things that the American people have been conditioned to believe do not happen in a generation.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019ve got some sound bites from Trump\u2019s event at the White House today. It was an event on proposed National Environmental Policy Act regulations. It was a meeting with people in the construction industry. The objective here is to massively speed up construction projects. That was the objective. The people that would benefit by this were among the group of people invited to the White House, and the president did a press availability after he had the meeting. We have some sound bites with the media here.<\/p>\n<p>THE PRESIDENT: I had calls from numerous senators and numerous congressmen and women saying it was the greatest presentation they\u2019ve ever had. Mike and Rand Paul disagreed because they want information that, honestly, I think is very hard to get. It\u2019s okay if the military wants to give it, but they didn\u2019t want to give it. And it really had to do with sources and information that we had that really should remain at a very high level.<\/p>\n<p>Could we individually maybe give one or two of them some information? Possibly, if we can do that. We did it because they were looking to blow up our embassy. We also did it for other reasons that were very obvious. Somebody died. One of our military people died. People were badly wounded just the week before &#8212; and we did it. We had a shot at him, and I took it, and that shot was pinpoint accurate, and that was the end of a monster.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, that is in response to Senator Mike Lee and Senator Rand Paul who were ripping the briefing that they got yesterday. Now, I don\u2019t know the whole story. One of the things I have picked up, one of the things I\u2019ve gathered &#8212; and this could be incorrect as well &#8212; is that Lee was&#8230; Well, no, I think this actually is true. Apparently, the secretary of defense or undersecretary in the briefing told some senators, &#8220;You ought not waste time debating any of this. This had to be done; we did it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-333078\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010920-Trump-Construction-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>And that Mike Lee was greatly offended by the fact that somebody in the Pentagon was telling him not to debate anything. Now, there may have been other elements of the briefing that ticked him off, but Trump said he had a bunch of calls from numerous senators saying it was the greatest presentation ever. Greatest meeting. Greatest presentation. Just like the &#8220;perfect phone call&#8221; with the guy in Ukraine, it was a great meeting. It was the best ever.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of senators told Trump they\u2019d never had a better presentation by any president ever (laughing), and the media\u2019s in there taking all this thing literally! They take it literally. They take it seriously. They get offended. &#8220;How dare he say he had the best briefing.&#8221; They have no idea. They haven\u2019t even taken the time to try to get to know or understand Trump. They just sit there and they fall for it every time. They get offended on cue. They get mad, they get outraged on cue, and Trump eats it up.<\/p>\n<p>Now he hits Pelosi in this next soundbite for defending Iran.<\/p>\n<p>THE PRESIDENT: You know what bothers me? When I see Nancy Pelosi trying to defend this monster from Iran who\u2019s killed so many people. So many people are walking around now without legs and without arms \u2019cause he was the big roadside bomb guy. He was the one that\u2019d send them to Afghanistan, send him to Iraq. He was big. That was his favorite thing. He thought it was wonderful. He doesn\u2019t think it\u2019s wonderful anymore. When Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats want to defend him, I think that\u2019s a very bad thing for this country. I think that\u2019s a big losing argument politically, too.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. Here we go again, because, you know, I caught some grief. You might be surprised to learn that. I caught some grief for saying on Monday that the Democrats were out defending the Iranians, that the Democrats were sounding like the Iranians. Who was it? It was&#8230; Oh, it was Brit Hume. That\u2019s right. Brit Hume on Fox News thought it was not entirely fair for me to say that. By the way, that\u2019s a popular word in official Washington when you want to criticize somebody. You accuse them of not being &#8220;fair&#8221; about whatever they\u2019re saying or whatever they\u2019re doing. It\u2019s a mild-mannered rebuke.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a stand-in for saying, &#8220;That son of a \u2018Bite Me\u2019 is as wrong as \u2013 this is stupid, this is asinine.&#8221; Instead you say, &#8220;That wasn\u2019t quite fair to say.&#8221; And everybody inside the Beltway knows what you\u2019re saying. But if you happen to be quoted, what\u2019s offensive about saying somebody was unfair?<\/p>\n<p>At any rate, I was said to have been unfair in my categorization of the Democrats being indistinguishable from the Iranians in attacking Trump. Well, I defy anybody to prove me wrong. And here was Trump saying the same thing. Now this is Trump getting his rejoinder in. You know, they all said this was gonna be Trump\u2019s Benghazi.<\/p>\n<p>THE PRESIDENT: I think it was obvious, if you look at the protests &#8212; and this was the anti-Benghazi. Benghazi was a disaster. They were saying we think we can have him tomorrow. I said, \u201cNope, they gotta go right now.\u201d And they were on their way very quickly and they got there almost &#8212; I mean, they got there quickly.<\/p>\n<p>They could have done that with Benghazi, too, by the way. Same thing. Had they done what I did, you wouldn\u2019t know the name Benghazi, it would not be a very famous name. Now it\u2019s a very famous name. This was the anti-Benghazi. That was a totally organized plot, and you know who organized it, that man right now is not around any longer. Okay? And he had more than that particular embassy in mind.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-332631\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010620-Qassem-Soleimani.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010620-Qassem-Soleimani.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-010620-Qassem-Soleimani-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>RUSH: Meaning that Soleimani was gonna hit additional targets. I know he just turned a flamethrower on \u2019em. He just said Benghazi was a disaster. They could have done what I did with Benghazi. He\u2019s hitting Obama and Hillary again. And you could just see, the press was in the shot. It was kind of a side view, you could see Jonathan Karl, ABC. You could see the jaw muscles clench. You could see, you could see the evidence that they didn\u2019t like it. Trump hitting Obama, hitting Hillary, claiming this was the anti-Benghazi. They could have done what I did. They could have prevented Benghazi, but they didn\u2019t. But I didn\u2019t let this become Benghazi.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s along the same lines as Trump continually reminding everybody that Obama dumped $150 billion in cash for the Iranians and that that money was used to pay for the missiles that Iran launched on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n<p>This is the one I told you about when the program began. Trump blaming Obama again, talking about Fauxcahontas and the Democrats. And as he talks, I want you to envision the hard hat representatives of the industries that would benefit from this regulations act laughing themselves, nudging each other with their elbows as Trump is speaking.<\/p>\n<p>THE PRESIDENT: One of the problems of which there was many, $150 billion dollars, $1.8 billion in cash, all of that money, and then that money was used for terror. Because if you look at Iran, it wasn\u2019t so bad until they got all that money. They used that money for terror. The Iran deal, it was just something that is no good for our country. It expires in a short time. That means they would be on their path to nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n<p>And for me it\u2019s about nuclear weapons, more than anything else. Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. They understand that. We have told them very strongly. Iran now is not wealthy like it was when President Obama handed \u2019em $150 billion. They\u2019re a much different country. We\u2019ll see whether or not they want to negotiate. Maybe they want to wait \u2019til after the election and negotiate with a weak Democrat, somebody like a Biden or a Pocahontas or Buttigieg or one of these characters.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: The people standing behind him are laughing, they\u2019re chuckling, they\u2019re nudging each other and winking at each other and the press with clenched jaws is just about to explode as once again Trump accuses Obama of giving the Iranians $150 billion and calling Pocahontas and Biden weak, and maybe that\u2019s what the Iranians are waiting for.<\/p>\n<p>Folks, this is exactly the way we have hoped the people we elected would deal with the Democrats for I don\u2019t know how many years. And it\u2019s happening. And it happens every day. And now another brief but obscene profit time-out here at the EIB Network. We\u2019ll be back.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, a good way to describe Pelosi and the Democrats, they actually sound like Soleimani\u2019s lawyers. If Soleimani had a lawyer, he would sound like the Democrats. I think it\u2019s probably the most descriptive way I can categorize the Democrats\u2019 attitudes and comments on Soleimani.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, Kenneth Timmerman, a defense specialist foreign policy expert &#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2014\/06\/20\/how-irans-spy-chief-paid-for-the-benghazi-attack\/\">this is in the New York Post<\/a> &#8212; has a book, and it\u2019s a new book called Dark Forces. You know what he asserts in this book? He asserts that Soleimani was the architect of Benghazi, that Soleimani, the Iranian terrorist that Trump just took out, Qassem Soleimani, was the architect and the planner of the terror attack on the embassy in Benghazi.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2014\/06\/20\/how-irans-spy-chief-paid-for-the-benghazi-attack\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-333108\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-NY-Post-TEARAWAY-010920.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-NY-Post-TEARAWAY-010920.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/APP-NY-Post-TEARAWAY-010920-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>Now, Trump said in his press availability at the White House today, he said that Qassem Soleimani was planning to blow up the U.S. embassy. Now, isn\u2019t that news? Isn\u2019t that enough reason to ice him? He\u2019s planning to blow up the embassy. You stop and think of what these people did after 9\/11, the media and the Democrats got all over George W. Bush &#8212; remember? &#8212; for not connecting the dots.<\/p>\n<p>All the intel we had on bin Laden, and no dots were connected so we couldn\u2019t stop the attack on 9\/11. Even Clinton came in for some criticism of that. But they really hit George W. Bush on that. He didn\u2019t know what he was doing, he was illegitimate anyway with the Florida recount, blah, blah, blah. He was too stupid, he couldn\u2019t even connect the dots, couldn\u2019t stop bin Laden.<\/p>\n<p>And now here\u2019s Trump, he\u2019s taken out Soleimani on the basis that he had already hit one embassy. He was the architect of the bombing of the Saudi oil depot, and he was planning on hitting another U.S. embassy. That\u2019s reason enough. So Trump connects the dots, takes the guy out, and the Democrats sound like the guy\u2019s defense lawyer. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any question about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: President Trump, he\u2019s like me.
