Welcome, sir. Glad you called.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. How are you?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019m doing well, sir. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-375301\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-120420-Trump-flags.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-120420-Trump-flags.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-120420-Trump-flags-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-120420-Trump-flags-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019ve been listening to you since, I think, late \u201988, if that\u2019s possible. Anyway, what I wanted to say, you\u2019re talking about bombshells, and the media says that there\u2019s no &#8220;there&#8221; there. So far, it doesn\u2019t look that way because nobody\u2019s out in the street, and I think what needs to happen is Trump needs to have rallies in all these swing states that have been corrupted and get every Trump voter out there, en masse, to show the fact that &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I agree. I opened the program with this suggestion, and I even apologized to Trump. It all falls on him. There\u2019s nobody else who can do this, and he must if this is gonna be pulled off &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; because they\u2019re gonna need public opinion behind this, Mike.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I totally agree, and he\u2019s gotta do that. You know he can still draw crowds, and nobody\u2019s organizing this. And somebody\u2019s got to. And I think he\u2019s the man that must. In every state that is in question, get every Trump voter out at the Capitol so it cannot be ignored &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Let me ask you a quick question.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; that there\u2019s this huge number of people that feel disenfranchised.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Let me ask you a quick question.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Sure.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Would you blame Trump if he was worn out? &#8221; I don\u2019t care. You know, I\u2019m just&#8230; I\u2019m gonna look at 2024. To hell with this,&#8221; or not, &#8220;To hell with it.&#8221; But, you know, &#8220;It\u2019s just such a long shot, and I\u2019m sick and tired of the burden all falling on me. So I\u2019ll just look to the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes, I would &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Would you be sympathetic if you found out Trump was looking at it that way &#8212; and I don\u2019t know that he is. Don\u2019t misunderstand. I\u2019m just asking.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I pray that he\u2019s not, because I think four years from now it\u2019s too late &#8212; and not only that, who knows if he\u2019ll be up to it in four years. We know he\u2019s up to it now.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And he\u2019s gotta fight. There\u2019s nobody else to do it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-372409 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-110420-Trump-Glare.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-110420-Trump-Glare.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-110420-Trump-Glare-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-110420-Trump-Glare-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, and that&#8230; (sigh) That is sadly &#8212; and I mean sadly &#8212; so true, and he set the pace. He was the guy starting with that campaign in 2015 on through 2016 and the election. He was a tour de force. He was a one-man show. He did it all. He didn\u2019t have consultants. He didn\u2019t have advisers. He did it all. And what was his reward? No assistance.<\/p>\n<p>For the first six months, over half the Republicans in the House of Representatives believed that stupid Russian story, thought that he was gonna be impeached or sent packing, thought he was guilty. It took \u2019em six months to realize it was bogus. It was embarrassing. So he got no assistance on reforming and rewriting Obamacare, which was one of his signature issues.<\/p>\n<p>The point is that Trump has demonstrated he can do it all, and once you do that, well, then your friends and supporters keep demanding that you do it all while they sit on the sidelines. I must tell you, that\u2019s a little frustrating for me, but there\u2019s nothing to do about it. &#8220;Yeah, Trump, get out there and do it! Hey, Trump get out there and fix this. Hey, Trump, get out there!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You need to do rallies! You need to fix this, Trump.&#8221; I just wonder if sometimes Trump said, &#8220;Why is it all on me?&#8221; I don\u2019t know that he has that attitude. I think it\u2019d be very understandable if he did, but I don\u2019t think he does. I just&#8230; (drumming fingers) I\u2019m curious. (interruption) Yeah, I know he loves the rallies. I know he\u2019s doing a rally in Georgia, and that\u2019s great. It\u2019s good.<\/p>\n<p>I think he enjoys the limelight, the focus of attention, because he likes achieving things and he knows what\u2019s at stake. He knows what\u2019s at stake in this election in Georgia, these two runoffs. Folks, you should take pause and realize how fortunate we\u2019ve all been to have this guy for these past four years and that he didn\u2019t cave. Do you realize he\u2019s the only Republican in the modern history of American politics who did not cave?<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t even wilt to the usual Democrat media pressure.<\/p>\n<p>He continued to implement his agenda. He continued to try to defy them every time they tried to shut him down and stop him, and he was on effective at it that people are demanding that he keep doing it. It\u2019s one of the&#8230; Not pitfalls. But it\u2019s one of the aspects of leadership that if you exhibit it well and you engage in leadership, well, then you\u2019re gonna have a lot of people on the sidelines demanding that you keep doing it.<\/p>\n<p>At any rate, I appreciate the call, as always.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Trump has demonstrated he can do it all, and once you do that, well, then your friends and supporters keep demanding that you do it all while they sit on the sidelines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":375301,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Would You Blame Donald Trump If He&#039;s Worn Out?
