BRETT: One of the incredible conversations that we continue to look at with the election that was just held in 2020 and with an eye towards what\u2019s gonna happen happening in 2022 as we get ready for another go-round… Let\u2019s not forget here you did have Biden and Harris ascend to the presidency.<\/p>\n

But look at the tiny margins that Speaker Pelosi and Chuck Schumer have when it comes to the control there in Washington, D.C. They are not confident. They are deathly afraid. So afraid, in fact, that just a couple of weeks ago, you had Speaker Pelosi trying to pick off a duly elected congresswoman (laughing) who had been sworn in and had already been active in legislating.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s so afraid about that tiny, little, itty-bitty majority that she\u2019s got in the House — and Chuck Schumer is certainly having fits pulling hair out of his head looking at Manchin and Warner and Sinema sinking all these crazy proposals that the Biden-Harris administration is pushing. People are not confident. On the left, they are not confident.<\/p>\n

\"\"They\u2019re worried. It\u2019s why they keep trying to restart social unrest and drama and boycotts and things like that, under the guise of different sorts of motivators, right? Gotta get rid of Major League Baseball and the All-Star game. Gotta get rid of the draft there in Atlanta! We have to do all this stuff, all this stuff to keep people activated and angry and uncertain.<\/p>\n

Well, the Washington Examiner has got a piece out that I think is absolutely fascinating. “Democrats don\u2019t trust elections, either. Nineteen percent of all voters,” 19% of all voters, “say Biden and Trump were elected fairly.” That is a crisis of confidence. And that is the sort of crisis of confidence — let\u2019s be honest — that an administration is gonna have a tough time overcoming.<\/p>\n

You can\u2019t convince people if they think that something “chicanerous,” if I can borrow a phrase from Joe Biden\u2019s vocabulary… If they think that something chicanerous has gone on, it\u2019s very hard to convince them that, no, no, it was fine. It was fine. You\u2019re okay. There was a survey that was done by David Winston, Republican pollster David Winston, to wonder if election rejection was only a Republican thing, right?<\/p>\n

You have Republicans who doubt Biden and Harris\u2019 victory. “When he conducted his February Winning the Issues survey of a thousand registered voters, he included two questions to test his doubt, asking if Trump and Biden were elected fairly or not,” and the numbers are shocking. “In nearly identical numbers, partisans felt their candidate would fairly, the other guy did not.<\/p>\n

“But only 19% of the country believe that both Biden and Trump won the elections fairly. Both sides, 87% of Democrats, 82% of Republicans believe their guy won fairly. Slight majorities in independents said both Trump and Biden won fairly,” which average people out there running around, it\u2019s frightening.<\/p>\n

“Sixty-two percent of Democrats believe Trump was elected because of Russian interference. Sixty-one percent of Republicans believe Biden was elected because of fraud.” So what do you do about this? How do you re-form the confidence that\u2019s required in these elections? Well, Rush — just in the run-up to this last election — certainly laid it out for you telling you that the Democrats have undermined the integrity of our elections.<\/p>\n

RUSH: These people, meaning the Democrats, their refusal to accept the results of 2016, they still haven\u2019t, folks. They are still out pushing the idea that Trump stole that election with the Russians. They are still pushing.<\/p>\n

They have done more to tarnish the reputation, the image, the sanctity of the American electoral system than any saboteur could. The Democrat Party has done more to ruin the perceived honesty and integrity of our electoral process than anything Vladimir Putin could. And it\u2019s a shame because there is no way — and I want you to listen to me here — there is no way to rig a presidential election the way they are claiming Trump did.<\/p>\n
