<\/p>\nRUSH: Here is Eric in Davie, Florida. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Rush, it is a great honor. The only better honor would be to meet Donald Trump myself personally.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, thank you, sir. Thank you very much.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
CALLER: I\u2019ll get to my point. I\u2019ve heard it said that part of reasoning on why we\u2019re having all these protests, burning, looting, and destruction in these major U.S. cities is payback for all the voters who voted for Trump in 2016. My question to you, the genius, is if Donald Trump wins reelection, will it ever end? And if Joe Biden wins, will it ever end?<\/p>\n
RUSH: What do you mean, payback?<\/p>\n
CALLER: They hate Trump so much, this is payback. Let\u2019s go out and destroy American cities and make these people pay for voting for Trump.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, except the problem here with that theory is that it\u2019s highly likely they are not destroying the property of Trump voters because the property they\u2019re destroying happens to pretty much exclusively be in blue Democrat states.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n
RUSH: In blue Democrat cities, like Seattle and Portland. Plus, on a timeline, this stuff all really ratcheted up after the death of George Floyd. Now, all those crazed women wearing vagina hats the week after Trump being inaugurated and doing the travel ban, I don\u2019t doubt that much of the civil unrest that\u2019s been practiced out there is literal temper tantrums on the part of people who lost the election and this is simply the childish way that they\u2019re going about showing it. But I don\u2019t think that these people are — if the theory is that they are getting back at Trump voters for voting for Trump, they\u2019re missing the boat.<\/p>\n
I mean, they\u2019re tearing up places in California. They\u2019re tearing up places in Oregon, state of Washington, where Democrat businesses are and where Democrat people live. The question is, if Biden wins, does this stuff continue? If Trump wins, does this stuff continue? Under what scenario does this stuff stop? Well, it\u2019s gonna stop. At some point it\u2019s either gonna burn out or a breaking point is going to be reached, and local and federal law enforcement is gonna lower the boom.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I think the reason it\u2019s continuing is because the Democrat Party has determined that it is a positive thing to help them win reelection for all of this chaos to occur. I think they want people to believe that it is all related to Trump, that this rioting, the looting, that the chaos is understandable. It\u2019s understandable these people would hate Trump. He\u2019s a racist bigot. It\u2019s understandable. We don\u2019t think we should try to stop him or quiet them down. This is peaceful protests. These are mothers upset that Trump wants to take their health care away.<\/p>\n
So, it\u2019s an active political calculation that this wanton destruction of Democrat cities will delay the opening of Democrat cities and states, which will, therefore, delay the speed of the recovery of the American economy, which, at the end of that progression, ends up hurting Trump.<\/p>\n
All of this — like I told a caller yesterday — everything happening, no matter how illogical you might think, everything happening is part of the Democrat Party effort to stop Donald Trump, to defeat Donald Trump, everything. Black Lives Matter being allowed to run amok, Antifa being allowed to run amok, New York, California, Washington, Oregon, governors and mayors not putting a stop to this, all designed to create chaos that they can blame on Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
So theoretically if Trump loses, then they would say, “Oh, yeah, it\u2019s gonna end at some point.” A lot of people think the virus is gonna end on November 4th. I mean, the big news about the virus, the virus as an ongoing, daily concern will also end after the election, either way. But I don\u2019t think it\u2019s gonna stop until these people are dealt with. I\u2019m talking about Black Lives Matter, Antifa, they\u2019re gonna keep going for as long as they\u2019re being paid to do it, as long as it is of value to them.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: It\u2019s a good question: Is this stuff gonna continue after the election? You know, my theory that no matter what it is, everybody — every human being — has an emotional reservoir, and at some point, it runs dry. You simply run out of energy. You run out of the emotion that makes you care. Nobody has an emotional reservoir that gets constantly refilled, unless there\u2019s something abnormal about it.<\/p>\n
Unless there\u2019s something sick about them and their lives actually become lived in a perpetual state of anger or angst, and a lot of people on the left — believe me — this has happened to. And it has been done on them on purpose, I believe. So it\u2019s actually… It\u2019s a toss-up whether some of this is gonna go on or not, whether some of it\u2019s gonna continue.<\/p>\n
Your thinking on it really would have to be predicated on, “Do you think it\u2019s legitimate in the first place, or is it just all political in nature?” In other words, “Is there really anger at what happened to George Floyd or was it just an opportunity — and when the George Floyd murder happened, did some kind trigger occur? Were some kind of marching orders sent out?”<\/p>\n
We know the left can and does operate that way. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I\u2019m not trying to say that George Floyd situation was not legitimately frustrating and angering. I\u2019m just saying, there are a lot of people who didn\u2019t March in the sixties civil rights protests would love to tell you they did, and do lie about it and tell you they did, because it gives them, you know, a sense of identity and purpose.<\/p>\n

I think these incidents that are happening now, like the woman that said to explain looting, “Well, we\u2019re looting because this is reparations. We\u2019re owed reparations. So everything we\u2019re taking and looting, it\u2019s legitimately ours. These businesses have insurance. They\u2019re gonna get repaid. So it\u2019s nothin\u2019 off their backs.” So that\u2019s how they\u2019re looking at it.<\/p>\n
If no effort is made to stop them, why should they stop? I mean, in the simplest terms of human behavior, if your mayor, if your governor is gonna essentially show him- or herself to side with you, why should you stop? (interruption) Because what says it\u2019s wrong? (interruption) I don\u2019t think these people have an inner compass that says what they\u2019re doing is wrong.<\/p>\n
I think that\u2019s what\u2019s missing in a lot of them. I think… You know, there was a Wall Street Journal editorial many, many years ago, “no guardrails,” meaning the morality is gone. The protective guardrails that keep you from going off the side of the cliff, they\u2019re gone. I think morality has been absent the American culture at large for 30 years.<\/p>\n
I think when it became an adjunct of the left that morality is nobody\u2019s decision for anybody else, that there is no universal right and wrong — that morality is somebody\u2019s individual choice — I think it was over for morality. When they openly make moves to eliminate God from as much of life as they can, it\u2019s an attack on morality. It\u2019s an attack on what they consider to be judgmentalism.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s an attack on what they think is having a good time. It could be any number of things. I don\u2019t think the people engaging in this have a little voice inside whispering to them that they\u2019re engaging in bad things. I think some people actually are missing the little voice — and you can call it your conscience. You can call it your connection to morality or God.<\/p>\n

But I think some people genuinely do not have it. Some of it\u2019s born of genuine rage, but how much of the rage is actually genuine versus manufactured and made up? But I think it all boils down. The simplest way to understand all of this — and this is not to say it\u2019s easy to understand, but it\u2019s all happening with the permission of people who hate Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s all happening with the permission and the encouragement of people who believe that it will help hasten the defeat of Donald Trump — and maybe there are other factors. The left doesn\u2019t have the guts to say “no” to these people. They\u2019re afraid of them themselves. They envy them. They wish they could be like them, but they can\u2019t. There\u2019s any number of potential explanations for this.<\/p>\n
But if you want it to stop, stop empowering liberals. Stop electing liberals. Stop giving them positions of power. This stuff will eventually stop at some point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
