\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: No, no, no. That\u2019s a different thing. I\u2019m talking about the rally, I guess it was in North Carolina, where the old Trump guy punched the guy in the face. I\u2019m just telling you, I understand why this is happening. You know, people that live in Washington, it\u2019s a protected enclave, folks. There aren\u2019t protests in Washington. I mean, you got people at Lafayette Park across from the White House, but the people in the media, they never encounter a protest. They never have to live through things like what happened in Ferguson, like what goes on in the campus of Mizzou.<\/p>\n

A lot of people live in Washington did those kinds of protests back in the sixties and so forth, but they don\u2019t dare subject themselves to them now. My only point is, they\u2019re so insulated that they see these protests on TV and they see them as generic things. They in no way can relate to them. They have no way of empathizing and understanding the raw emotion that peaceful people in these communities have for what\u2019s being done in the name of dissent, in the name of attacking Republicans, in the name of supposed racism. They\u2019re fed up with it.<\/p>\n


\nThey are fed up with being pointed at as the reason things are not going right, when the reasons are in Washington and in the White House. They\u2019re fed up with being called all these names. So they get together at their Trump rallies and if these people infiltrate, they\u2019re not gonna be tolerated. It\u2019s just that simple. Meanwhile, you watch these protests from afar you watch \u2019em on TV and you think it\u2019s cute. It\u2019s great news; it\u2019s part of democracy. But you have no personal connection to it. You\u2019re never gonna understand this, and you\u2019re never gonna understand any movement like this, populist, nationalist, even conservative.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re not gonna understand it — and they don\u2019t. But there\u2019s something else that happened, and this is not good, and this is gonna be a problem, and that is… Her name is Michelle Fields, and she is a Breitbart reporterette, and she was covering the Trump press conference on Tuesday night after the primaries that was held up in Jupiter here at the Trump golf course in the members clubhouse. And when it was over and Trump was making his way offstage, she was trying to get close enough to Trump to ask him a question.<\/p>\n

And the next thing she knew, she was grabbed very tightly on her arm, so much so that she was bruised. She was nearly thrown to the floor and told to essentially to be quiet, no questions, get out of the way, Trump is leaving, what have you. And she claims that it was Trump\u2019s campaign manager who did it, a guy named Corey Lewandowski. There are witnesses. There\u2019s audio. There\u2019s video. She\u2019s got the bruises on her arms. Trump was asked about it after the debate last night. He thinks it\u2019s all made up. He didn\u2019t see it. He was long gone, or at least his back was to the event when it happened.<\/p>\n

It happened after he had walked by, and it may well be that the people involved have not told him what really happened, that they\u2019re saying, “Nah, she\u2019s making it up! She\u2019s exaggerating. It didn\u2019t happen, or it did happen but it wasn\u2019t Corey Lewandowski that did it,” or what have you. But, I mean, there\u2019s all kinds of witnesses and evidence here. People were running audiotape of it. There\u2019s some video, I think. She\u2019s got the bruises on her arms.<\/p>\n

Politico has run, I think, the audio and transcript of it. So it happened. And Trump last night said that he thinks it\u2019s being made up because that\u2019s obviously what his people are telling him. Now Michelle Fields of Breitbart has filed a formal criminal complaint against Lewandowski alleging that he forcefully grabbed her and nearly threw her to the floor. So that\u2019s not gonna go away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
