RUSH: Let\u2019s get started on the phones. This is Kirsten. Kirsten\u2019s in Long Island. It\u2019s great to have you. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi. It\u2019s Kristen.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Kristen. Sorry. It says Kirsten up there. I\u2019m sorry.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s okay. God bless you, Rush. We love you. We are praying for you. I lit a candle for you at Mass today. So we\u2019re with you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I appreciate that. I really do. Thank you very much.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. So I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s a question or comment, but I felt like Bret Baier when you heard you in the beginning<\/a>, and I\u2019m just feeling like we\u2019re — you were saying how, you know, it\u2019s great we won seats in the Senate and the House, and I just felt like, so what? Because if we don\u2019t win the presidency, if they\u2019re able to steal it, they\u2019re gonna eventually be able to steal the election in the Senate and the Congress and I feel like it\u2019s because of Trump that they got those votes. I don\u2019t think the people are behind the Republicans, I think the people are behind Trump.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Exactly. Yeah. I spent a lot of time making that point yesterday.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I heard you, but a few days ago you were like don\u2019t worry, we got this, and now it felt like you were saying, well, if we don\u2019t win — it felt like you\u2019re saying, well, if we don\u2019t win the presidency, look at what we\u2019ve done. It doesn\u2019t matter.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No. You misunderstood the context. I\u2019m glad you brought — I\u2019m trying to ask a question. They\u2019re all saying Trump lost. I\u2019m reacting to the left. They\u2019re waiting for Fox to call this. Do not doubt me. They think it\u2019s over. I\u2019m reacting, I\u2019m simply saying, it\u2019s a hypothetical, how the hell can the president lose an election where all this other stuff happens for the Republicans? They gain seats in the House to go 50-50. They hold the Senate. How does it work?<\/p>\n

I\u2019m essentially saying I don\u2019t believe that Trump lost. But that\u2019s what they\u2019re asking us to accept. What they want us to believe is exact opposite of what you said. They want us to believe this country voted for Republicans but against Trump. It\u2019s the exact opposite. And I\u2019m simply asking how in the world can they say that the people of this country voted to send Republicans to the House in equal numbers with Democrats and to hold the Senate and reject Donald Trump?<\/p>\n

Now, if you heard me say that and that makes you think I think it\u2019s over, that\u2019s a mistake. Bad word choice on my part. I\u2019m simply saying these two things don\u2019t go together. Now they\u2019re trying to tell us and they\u2019re trying to set the stage for as many people believing as possible that the people of this country chose Republicans but rejected Trump. As you just pointed, you can\u2019t divvy it up that way. The people of this country voted Trump. And that\u2019s why they\u2019re gonna gain seats in the House, the Republicans are, 50-50 in the House, and maintain the one with to two, maybe three seat majority in the Senate, because of support for Trump.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I\u2019m trying to warn everybody, they\u2019re trying to set it up so that it\u2019s the Republicans that did okay but that Trump was rejected. Folks, they\u2019re poisoned and deranged with Trump hatred. They need Trump repudiated even if they have to lie to themselves about it, and that\u2019s what they\u2019re trying to set up here. So I\u2019m simply asking a question that to me defies logic. The answer defies logic. How can the Republicans do this well everywhere else and yet Trump is on the losing end in these states? It doesn\u2019t make any sense, is what I was trying to say. Anyway, I\u2019m glad you called, gave me the chance here to straighten it out, Kristen. We will be back.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay, folks, we got other anomalies out here. Record low enthusiasm for Biden in many major cities. He lost support, lost votes in New York City, Chicago, and Miami, 200,000 votes in New York City, 260,000 votes in Chicago, 70,000 in the video in Miami, but Atlanta, Detroit, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh he gets enough uptick there in those four to win? In their projections. I\u2019m not saying — you gotta be cool here, folks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
