I mean, barring some unforeseen, unpredictable event, you have to conclude, educated guess, that newly arrived poor, uneducated, unskilled people equal Democrat voters, and &#8212; (interruption)  Well, I was just asked a question, &#8220;What about all the Democrat Senators who fear that kind of move?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s an excellent question.  Democrat Senators gotta get reelected.  If Obama does this amnesty thing before the election, that\u2019s gonna really tick many people off and the Democrats are not gonna be reelected.  He doesn\u2019t care.  I honestly believe that.  I honestly believe and, look, I know how this sounds.  I mean, I can imagine you, folks, hearing what I say here, and I say it matter-of-factly with great confidence and conviction because I do believe it, and I can imagine you hearing it and trying to tell somebody who doesn\u2019t listen to this show, that you think it, too, and they\u2019re gonna think you\u2019re nuts and so forth. <\/p>\n<p>I understand, in a sense, that it really sounds strange to say.  I firmly believe, and I\u2019ve got evidence. I mean, I don\u2019t make this stuff up out of whole cloth.  Barack Obama has much more on his mind than just making sure Democrats get reelected, especially now that he\u2019s not on the ballot. He doesn\u2019t have to get any new votes.  If amnesty, if somehow he could get five, six million people in here, he would love to have the Republicans do it.  He would love the Republicans to actually-make it happen.  I mean, that would be Christmas morning for him.  It is so crucial to his objective of transforming America. <\/p>\n<p>Remember, he\u2019s not here to transform the Democrat Party.  He\u2019s here to transform the country.  If there is a blanket amnesty for five, six million, or if he does \u2019em all, then essentially you have a one party country. No matter what the Republicans do, they\u2019re not going to be able to compete with those numbers.  Now, that of course assumes that the vast majority of these new arrivals dutifully vote Democrat.  That is a major assumption that\u2019s part of this. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=8867\"><img id=\"eZObject_94949\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/GOPEndPIX.jpg\"\/><\/a>But the fact that some Democrats, &#8220;No, no, don\u2019t do it without Republican help. My gosh, if you do it with executive order, we\u2019re cooked.&#8221;  Now, I know he doesn\u2019t want that to happen, but if it comes down to his transforming the country in a major way before he leaves or Democrats reelected and holding &#8212; see, I actually think, H.R., that he\u2019d be perfectly happy with the Republicans owning Congress.  I think he\u2019d be perfectly happy with the Republicans gaining control of the Senate, along with the House.  It would be made to order for him.  They\u2019d oppose everything he\u2019s trying to do. It would give him excuses do his executive actions, executive orders.<\/p>\n<p>He could continue to portray the Republicans uncooperative, as partisan, as playing politics with everything, and the low-information crowd thinks only Republicans play politics.  The Democrats, they don\u2019t do politics.  They do compassion and they do big-hearted stuff.  They care about people.  But the Republicans, they just oppose everything.  They just hate.  That\u2019s the template.  So if the Republicans are blocking him at every move, he\u2019s got &#8212; in fact, I can hear him saying that he would do this to make sure to save this country from the Republican Party.  I can hear him offering that as justification for his executive orders. <\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s already got, what, 47% of the country who would agree with him on that, that the Republican Party poses the biggest threat to the country \u2019cause they don\u2019t care about people except the rich. And all they want is tax cuts for the rich. And they don\u2019t care about racism, \u2019cause they are racists. And they don\u2019t care about poverty, \u2019cause they\u2019re rich. And they don\u2019t care about people because they\u2019re mean.  So if the Republicans are standing in his way everywhere he looks, why, it\u2019s made to order.  So he may actually be thinking that, for his selfish purposes, Democrats losing might make it easier. <\/p>\n<p>Because what if the Democrats hold the Senate and he can\u2019t get enough of them to go along with amnesty &#8212; I\u2019m just guessing here &#8212; to make it look like he\u2019s got some assistance or some help here.  Amnesty, as we have discussed for years on this program, is the fastest, easiest &#8212; well, not easy, it\u2019s the path of least resistance because the Republicans are signing on to it, don\u2019t you know.  I mean, they\u2019re saying so, and the Chamber of Commerce is out there demanding the Republicans go along with it.  Amnesty would be, alone, enough for a political, not military, but political coup d\u2019etat that would give the Democrats control with no serious opposition. <\/p>\n<p>Modern Democrat politics is the fight between left-wing Alinskyites and even more radical left-wing Alinskyites.  There is no moderate center in the Democrat Party anymore.  And they don\u2019t like and they don\u2019t want any opposition.  Why do you think they\u2019re trying to criminalize opposition as often as they can, such as what happened with Rick Perry, such as what they tried with Bridgegate, Chris Christie, such as the numerous recall efforts against Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. And every damn one of them was rooted in supposed criminal corruption.  And the list goes on and on, of examples of this.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_94954\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ImmigrationAmnesty.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH: Here\u2019s Elizabeth, Silver Springs, Maryland.  Thank you for calling.  It\u2019s great to have you here.  Hi.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  Thank you so much for taking my call.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You bet.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I was just calling because I know there\u2019s one in every family, but we have a couple crazy&#8230; Actually, most of my family are crazy liberals, and even they are getting outraged by the whole illegal immigration, kids coming across the border. We just found out here. My brother and sister-in-law live in Virginia, and I live in Maryland, and something like 3,000 kids will be enrolled in the public school system.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  And you want to know what you can do?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, we\u2019ve called, you know, our representatives.  I mean, I don\u2019t know what to do.  We\u2019ve done everything that I think we\u2019re supposed to do, but it\u2019s not gonna make a difference.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You can\u2019t do anything about it because the problem is not designed to be solved at your level.  This is something that shouldn\u2019t happen in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  This has to be solved where it started, and that\u2019s at the White House.  That\u2019s where. What can you do?  Do you have the means to send 3,000 kids back home to wherever they\u2019re from?  You don\u2019t even know where they\u2019re from.  How are you gonna get \u2019em back? Who\u2019s got the money to do that? <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  For Elizabeth in Silver Springs, Maryland. I think we did this story one day last week about 3,000 kids that were being enrolled in Virginia, not Maryland, where she was, but it was 3,000 kids being enrolled in Virginia.  The Department of Education has already issued a statement saying these kids have to be allowed to go to school.  I know we did that story.  I remember it like it was yesterday.  They have to be permitted to go to school.  There is nothing you can do about it.  The federal government has told you, Elizabeth, there isn\u2019t anything you can do.<\/p>\n<p>She called here. They\u2019re at their wits\u2019 end. If you missed her call, she said, like every conservative family there\u2019s always a couple crazy liberals, and she\u2019s got a couple, and even they are upset at what\u2019s happening here with this immigration business.  It stands to reason that there are some liberal Democrats.  See, there\u2019s a bunch of different kinds of Democrats, and the rank-and-file voting liberal Democrats are not often as strident, committed, as left-wing leadership in this country is. <\/p>\n<p>I mean, most people don\u2019t even think of themselves as liberals.  They\u2019re just Democrats.  The other guys are Republicans, and the conservatives are the wacko Republicans.  These Democrats I\u2019m talking about, they don\u2019t think of themselves as wild, radical leftists.  And, as such, they don\u2019t recognize it in people like Obama or Biden or Holder or any of the others.  Which is why they react the way they do when you tell \u2019em they are radicals, \u2019cause they just see Obama as a reasonable guy. He\u2019s a Democrat, got elected, first black president. Why don\u2019t you like him, what\u2019s wrong, what\u2019s he done?  Nothing wrong, he\u2019s a Democrat.<\/p>\n<p>But now this is causing some of those Democrats say, &#8220;Wait a minute,&#8221; cause even this makes no sense.  This is a direct assault on the working man, quote, unquote, working man being the union guy.  Here you have people being brought into the country specifically because they\u2019ll work dirt cheap.  Who does that hurt?  The Democrat working man.  So she said, &#8220;What can we do about it?&#8221;  Nothing, because the problem did not happen at your level.  That\u2019s the problem with statism.  That\u2019s why so many of us have been trying to sound the alarm for so long.  This stuff\u2019s gotta be stopped at the border.  Once they get here &#8212; they have de facto amnesty now.  They don\u2019t even have to be granted amnesty. <\/p>\n<p>These kids coming up from Central America, they cross the border, they get sent into some rehab center there at the border where they\u2019re given a cursory exam and then they\u2019re sent out all over the country, family members, don\u2019t you know, or volunteers taking them in their homes. And then the communities are told, &#8220;You have got to enroll them.&#8221;  Well, they\u2019re not going back.  Once all this starts ramping up, folks &#8212; this is Jeff Sessions\u2019 point, there isn\u2019t any deportation.  And that\u2019s where this is &#8212; (interruption) oh, Elizabeth has said her brother lived in Virginia?  Okay, well, all right, it makes sense then.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I\u2019m not kidding you, folks, if they get amnesty, amnesty is Democrat Party control for a generation.
