Glad you waited. Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi, Rush. Thank you so much for having me. I\u2019m a Georgia voter here. I was proud to attend Trump\u2019s rally on November the 1st waiting in line for 11 hours. It was worth every minute. My question is, without Trump, why would I bother to give these Republican Senate seats another vote? I voted for Loeffler and Perdue when I voted for President Trump, and due to the overwhelming fraud in our Georgia election system, my vote did not count. It\u2019s the same people running the runoff election. Why would I think it would matter then?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, let me ask you, does it matter to you that the Senate be able to stop the Biden-Obama agenda? Are you of the opinion you don\u2019t care anymore?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: No, I do care. But my thing is, too, even if we have 52-48, we can\u2019t trust all our Republican senators. Kamala would be the tie breaker for a 50-50 vote then if Romney and Collins, for instance, voted for the Democrats.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-376574\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-121520-georgia-vote.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-121520-georgia-vote.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-121520-georgia-vote-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-121520-georgia-vote-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I understand that. But if you lose these two seats, then it\u2019s academic. There\u2019s no way, you have no chance of stopping the Biden-Obama agenda. At least with these two, if they win, there is numerically a chance, you know, require that the Republicans stay unified and so forth. As far as I\u2019m concerned, there\u2019s no wrong or right answer here so don\u2019t misinterpret my tone. I\u2019m not trying to be critical in the way I ask the questions of you. To me that\u2019s what this is about. If you want to be able to stop the Democrat agenda, by that do you want to stop the Green New Deal, do you want to stop the way they\u2019re planning on dealing with the coronavirus? Do you want to stop the virtual takeover of this country by radical leftists?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I do.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: The only chance you\u2019ve got is those two Senate seats. I know they\u2019re not a guarantee because, you know, you said they could cave anytime they wanted, depending on the pressures that are mounted against them, but at least there is the possibility of stopping it if they are elected. And has Trump changed his mind? Has Trump said that he doesn\u2019t care whether they win or not since that rally?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Not that I know of. I just feel it just seems more hopeless each day. I have never not voted in any election since 1988, not even small municipal elections. But I\u2019m sure I\u2019m not the only one especially here in Georgia that feels like, you know, the Republicans are basically using us the way the Democrats use an underclass to keep them in power and they\u2019re not doing anything to help us. They\u2019re selling out left and right. Our governor ran on a platform that he was like Trump. He is not. None of his administration is. I don\u2019t feel that the Republicans are fighting for us. Vernon Jones, a Democrat, goes to the capital on the weekend and fights for us. But Perdue and Loeffler are not.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-374145 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-112020-Loeffler.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-112020-Loeffler.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-112020-Loeffler-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-112020-Loeffler-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>RUSH: Well, I understand how you feel. And I hear this from people constantly that they care about you when it\u2019s election time and then after that you may as well not even exist. But look. It\u2019s up to you. I\u2019m not gonna try to talk you into or out of anything. I respect your independent thinking enough as it is. But I did want to put the option in front of you because that\u2019s really what we\u2019re facing. I gotta run. I\u2019m out of time.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here is Ed. Venice, Florida. Welcome, sir. Great to have you with us.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Glad to be on, Rush. Been a 30 here-year listener.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019ll get right to my point. Right to my point. With all due respect, I\u2019m a 61-year-old Republican, and I\u2019ve listened to mainstream conservative media such as yourself and Fox News, and I\u2019m fed up with all of you. I\u2019m fed up with Republicans, and I\u2019m fed up with the media that supposedly backs Republicans. Why in the world would someone like you give a forum during the summer to disc jockeys in New York City that dislike white people?<\/p>\n<p>And why in the world would Sean Hannity have Cuomo on his show talking about how let\u2019s all get along and go to Yankee Stadium and wear masks during this supposed pandemic? And not one Republican have I heard stand up anywhere on national TV, on Fox News, anywhere, and say, &#8220;Look. This election was a fraud.&#8221; The Republican legislature in Michigan could have stopped all this. There\u2019s Republican legislatures all over the country that could have put an end to all this, and all we were doing was worried about rioting in the summer and COVID while behind the scenes what were they doing? They were figuring out how to win.<\/p>\n<p>Every time the Republicans will bring a knife to a gunfight. And I am fed up with it. I hope Georgia they lose. I want Democrats to run it all for a while and give these RINOs and everyone else, the conservative media and the whole show, give \u2019em what they deserve \u2019cause they won\u2019t fight hard enough for the rest of us that Trump was willing to do. He was a man all alone, and nobody helped him.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Nobody?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Nobody helped him. Not to the extent that they could have. They wasted their time worrying about these riots in the streets, which were all a diversion, COVID, all this other stuff, and what were these states doing in the background? They were going, &#8220;Good, we\u2019ll do the old rope-a-dope. Let \u2019em worry about all this. We\u2019re gonna figure out how to win this election.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You mean steal it, don\u2019t you?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-373415\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-111720-Maga-march-T-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-111720-Maga-march-T-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-111720-Maga-march-T-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/APP-111720-Maga-march-T-3-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>CALLER: And that is exactly what they did. Steal it, win it, whatever. The Republicans should have been smart enough and had guts enough to stop this. The commentators like yourself, with all due respect, you didn\u2019t see the stitches on the fastball on this one, Rush. You got diverted just like everybody else. Oh, let\u2019s worry about rioting and whether blacks like whites and whites like blacks and buy into all this defund the police garbage. It was all a diversion. The whole time they were accomplishing what their goal was, divert everybody away and get Trump out of there &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, why didn\u2019t you call me this past summer and tell me this stuff then so I could have done something about it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Believe me, I tried. I\u2019ve been listening to you every day for the past 30 years. And I was so disappointed in you and the others. Fox News, I\u2019m fed up with them. Juan Williams, Donna Brazile, the whole spiel, Hannity. I mean, you talk about how gutless it is to be a Democrat. Well, look at our party. If I hear one more Republican, one more Republican, &#8220;Oh, abortion, abortion, abortion, support the military.&#8221; Guess what? Abortion\u2019s a personal matter. It doesn\u2019t matter what the law is. And everybody knows you should support the military. What, what we supposed to feel better about ourselves because we believe in this? That doesn\u2019t win elections! It doesn\u2019t win!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, yeah, but I have my own theory about that, which I have shared with you numerous times today. And I\u2019ll have to delay reminding you of it because I\u2019m out of busy broadcast time since I stood aside and let you have your rant, because we believe in fairness here at the EIB Network.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: If you lose these two seats, then it&#039;s academic.
