Rush 24/7 Morning Update: Shameless

It’s Time for the President to Address the Nation
RUSH: He has the bully pulpit, and he could use it to — not shame members of Congress. That would happen as a by-product with the information that you wish he would impart.

Kushner Nails It: Russia Hoax Insults Trump Voters
RUSH: What this continues to be is a major, major insult and dose of high contempt for the people that elected Trump. That's exactly what this is. It is a slap in the face that has not stopped. "Trump could not have won this! People that supported him are minor, they're dupes, they're idiots. There are not very many of them." Kushner is exactly right. It ridicules the people that voted for him, and it claims they're not serious and they were tricked and they were befuddled and they were manipulated and all this.

Republicans Are Squandering a Chance They Never Thought They’d See
RUSH: The Republicans run the show. It's time for the Republicans to start acting like it. Politics is what it is. The Republicans don't appear to want to play the game. I know the old saw: They didn't think they were gonna win, therefore they weren't prepared. So what? They did win. It ought to be euphoric. It ought to be exciting. Apparently it isn't.
Casual Listener Now Won’t Miss a Moment
RUSH: Fifteen hours a week. Is it really too much to ask?
Is Trump Eying Rudy to Replace “Beleaguered AG” Sessions?
RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, I got a cryptic email this morning from a friend who said that a friend of his, who I know (all these people must remain nameless) has been charged with some serious vetting of people.

Jordan Spieth Exudes Class
RUSH: If you have a daughter, he's the guy you would want your daughter to marry. He's the kind of guy you'd like to have as your son. He's just… I don't want to ruin his image by saying "clean cut" but the guy is just cultured and mannered. He had one of the greatest acceptance speeches yesterday.
