reminding you what I told you yesterday that I thought he would do and say in his Davos speech today.<\/a><\/p>\nSo here we go, audio sound bite number 1. It\u2019s three… two… one… hit it!<\/p>\n

RUSH: He\u2019s gonna go to Davos today, may already be there. He\u2019s speaking to them tomorrow, and he\u2019s gonna tell them what\u2019s coming next…. I think it\u2019s a very important point for as many people as possible to understand. \u2018Cause, like I said in the first hour, the idea that America is not the good guys and that there are prominent Americans \u2014 primarily Democrats, but there are a lot of them — who think America is the problem in the world, and the problem stems from our size.<\/p>\n
It stems from our power, both military and economic \u2014 and that we\u2019re not the good guys? That is just so foreign to me. As much good as we do for the world, as much good as we do for ourselves \u2014 and we have no competitor in increasing the standard of living, life expectancy, economic prosperity, reduction in poverty. There\u2019s no nation even close, and yet this is seen as a problem by a lot of people. And it irks Trump, it\u2019s always bothered him, and it\u2019s one of the things that he is attempting to reverse.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Make America Great Again. This is exactly what bothers him. It\u2019s bothered him for a long time as a citizen, like it\u2019s bothered me, like it\u2019s bothered you, this view of America that has been adopted by the Washington establishment — by our civil service corps, the ambassador corps — that somehow we\u2019re the problem, that we are the destabilizing agent in the world, and it\u2019s a bunch… It\u2019s a crock. So setting up, this was me on yesterday\u2019s program.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s go to the president this morning in Davos — and, by the way, they love him in Davos, and you know why? ‘Cause he\u2019s been right. He talked… Davos is the industrialists and the capitalists, and there\u2019s a bunch of leftists at this thing too. It\u2019s a Swiss chalet bash and party. The only thing missing is the yachts that you can\u2019t get there. They keep \u2019em down in the Greek isles or in St. Barth\u2019s. But the guys that own the yachts are there, and Trump has been going, and he\u2019s telling them two years ago what he was gonna do. He\u2019s telling them two years ago what can be possible.<\/p>\n
You know, it amazes me that people that have this kind of money are this dense and stupid about it, and somehow fall prey to all of this liberal thinking and the conventional wisdom — and they fall prey to it because it\u2019s so dominant everywhere. Trump stands alone, tells them, “No. It\u2019s wrong. America\u2019s gonna be great. We\u2019re coming back; let me tell you how we\u2019re gonna do it,” and he\u2019s done it. They love the guy in Davos now because he\u2019s been right about it, and it\u2019s all been beneficial to them — and it\u2019s not just individual wealthy people I\u2019m talking about.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s governments and a number of institutions which have been sucked in.<\/p>\n
I mean, if the United States elects a guy like Obama then the world thinks, “Wow. The United States wants to go socialist. We\u2019d better go socialist. We\u2019ve gotta stay friends with the U.S.,” and even if they think it\u2019s the wrong thing to do, they did it because they\u2019re afraid of being shut out by the U.S. Well, so Trump has come along and said, “We\u2019re not socialists and we\u2019re never gonna be socialist, and that was an aberration; it isn\u2019t gonna happen. We are going to be — once again — the leaders of the world, and you can be part of it. You can be with us. We have no reason to not want you to be part of it,” blah, blah, and they\u2019re all on board.<\/p>\n
So here. Let\u2019s start with an audio sound bite from the president today, this morning in Davos.<\/p>\n
THE PRESIDENT: When I spoke at this forum two years ago, I told you that we had launched the great American comeback. Today, I\u2019m proud to declare that the United States in the midst of an economic boom the likes of which the world has never seen before. America\u2019s thriving, America\u2019s flourishing — and, yes, America is winning again like never before. Just last week alone, the United States concluded two extraordinary trade deals, the agreement with China and the United States-Mexico-Canada agreement, the two biggest trade deals ever made. These agreements represent a new model of trade for the twenty-first century — agreements that are fair, reciprocal, and that prioritize the needs of workers and families.<\/p>\n
RUSH: And he made sure, he made sure to point out that their prior globalist hero — and there may have been some genuine feelings among this crowd that Obama was a hero. But I still believe that much of the Obama mystique was social. It was… I mean, how do you say “no”? How do you oppose the first African-American United States president? I think that accounted for a lot of what we all thought was a wild and massive embrace of Obama. I actually don\u2019t think it was. In some places it was. I mean, don\u2019t misunderstand. But I think a lot of people who were up front wanting to bask in the glow really were not, quote-unquote, “on board.” Trump made it an objective of his to point out that Obama left the American economy in a dismal state.<\/p>\n
