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

RUSH: Trump\u2019s appearance today was ostensibly built around the release of his new book, Crippled America: How to Make America Great Again<\/a>, and he said in the press conference his publisher has told him it\u2019s already selling like hotcakes. Well, guess what, I just got an e-mail from my publisher, and my book is selling like hotcakes, too. My publisher just told me the details here of the first week. Well, I mean, what do you think? It\u2019s number one in the categories that it\u2019s in, Barnes & Noble, these other places out there, and the thing is I know it\u2019s all you and I\u2019ve run out of ways of saying thank you, and I\u2019ve run out of ways of trying to impress upon you how appreciative we all are. <\/p>\n

<\/a>All I can do is tell you how much we believe in these books and their purpose and the feedback that we continue to get from people, the dyslexic people that love reading these books, kids that hate reading love reading these books and I know why, it\u2019s \u2019cause they\u2019re immersive. These books are stories that actually capture a young person\u2019s imagination and hook them in. It\u2019s not even reading for them. I mean, it is, but it\u2019s learning, it\u2019s exploring, it\u2019s having their imaginations run wild, which is ideal. That\u2019s when your imagination does run wild. You don\u2019t know limits or boundaries yet. The same with your dreams, when you\u2019re a young kid. That\u2019s why I sometimes think we make kids grow up too fast and we pummel them with, “No, little Johnny, you can\u2019t do that. No, little Johnny, that\u2019s so unrealistic.” <\/p>\n

No, no, no, no. Little Johnny, if you can dream it, go for it. Little Johnny, if you can sit out there and imagine it, go ahead and dream it. That\u2019s what\u2019s in these books, all based around the truth of the American founding. The truth of American history. Of course I am Rush Revere. Rush Revere and the Star-Spangled Banner<\/a>. And I have to tell you, every time I — this is so cool. We watched these World Series games, and we made sure to tune in early to catch the national anthem before every one. <\/line><\/p>\n

I\u2019m sitting there and I\u2019m watching the anthem and I\u2019m wondering how many people at home, how many young people who\u2019ve already got the book and are reading it, there are some illustrations and pictures in the book that are exactly portrayed in these pregame ceremonies, giant flag throughout the whole outfield, teams lined up at first base and third base lines, the anthem being sung, and I wonder how many of them are listening to the anthem being sung and now maybe for the first time in their lives know what those words mean, why those words were written, where those words were written, what was the inspiration for those of words. <\/p>\n

I mean, everybody knows the anthem, the Star-Spangled Banner. But the story of how it came to be is fascinating, like everything else in American history. So thank you again, folks. Always know that it is overwhelmingly appreciated. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
