<\/p>\nRUSH: The Democrats in the media are furious that President Trump appointed Vice President Mike Pence to head up the coronavirus effort to coordinate the efforts within the administration instead of a medical expert, and they say, “Obama did it right. Obama had the Ebola czar! That\u2019s what Trump should do.” Well, who did Obama appoint to be the Ebola czar? It was a guy named Ron Klain. Ron Klain\u2019s not a medical expert. Ron Klain is a Democrat lawyer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ron Klain is a lawyer who worked on the Clinton and Gore campaigns. He was Gore\u2019s chief of staff; then he became an employee for Fannie Mae where he helped overcome regulatory issues. He wasn\u2019t a medical expert! But they made him the Ebola czar, and since Obama never did anything wrong, he was a medical expert. But he wasn\u2019t. Now BuzzFeed is saying that I am politicizing the issue with conspiracy theories that the deep state invented the virus and is weaponizing it against Trump. (chuckling)<\/p>\n
I mean, it\u2019s absurd. (sigh) This is the same media bunch that knowingly published the pack-of-lies Steele dossier, folks. They knew it was unverified, uncorroborated. They published it anyway just to get it in the media so the Drive-Bys could talk about it. I told you yesterday they were saying that this was gonna be Trump\u2019s Katrina — and, lo and behold, here comes this lollipop, Tom Steyer, who was on some radio show last night, had this to say.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
STEYER: Trump is incompetent. He is doing a terrible job on this. Mr. Trump is way late, he has no capability, he\u2019s incompetent. I think this is a huge, huge deal because this is like George W. Bush with the, uh, hurricane and flooding down in New Orleans, a total executive failure by an incompetent executive.<\/p>\n
RUSH: If that\u2019s not politicizing it… This is guy\u2019s running for the Democrat presidential nomination, this Looney Tune Steyer. He\u2019s the global warming nut, the climate change nut. And he\u2019s now claiming that this is Trump\u2019s Katrina — something I predicted to you yesterday that they were already saying or would say. They are so desperately hoping that this goes wrong for Trump. They sit out there and they say, “We need to come together, we need to unify, this is a public health issue.” Well, they need to lead by example, which they are not doing because what they are hoping is that this botches.<\/p>\n
