Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 247 Podcast.
Hiya folks, how are you?
It's great to have you here.
Welcome back.
Been looking forward to the program starting today as I am every day.
Because we are here, serving humanity at the distinguished and prestigious Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Here is the phone number if you want to be on the program 800-282-2882.
If you want to send an email, have at it, I check them, as you know.
I don't often read them verbatim, but I reference them, I put them in my own words.
Brevity is the soul of wit, the address lrushbow at EIBNet.com.
A little housekeeping here to kick off.
Yesterday on the program.
We had a soundbite, Jake Tapper, CNN, interviewing Mrs. Clinton.
I think it was last Friday.
And the soundbite consisted of Jake Tapper trying to ask her about her emails and the FBI investigation into her emails and server, and she was just laughing.
Just cackling.
Arkansas Broadbeam type stuff, which we have highlighted before.
And played the bite twice, and we looped the cackle laughter.
And I made the remark that that's it.
I mean, that's that's that's what we got.
Well, that's all I had seen.
I had seen the clip, it was posted on gosh, I don't know how many blogs, and every blog that posted it said, you have got to see this.
We can't describe it.
It posted the video, and it's just what we aired yesterday of Jake trying to ask it a question about it, and her just laughing maniacally and crazily, it looked like she's avoiding it all.
Well, apparently what happened was that Jake persisted, kept asking her, and eventually she did answer.
I don't know that her answer was noteworthy or momentous.
But apparently what happened yesterday is that a number of you let Jake Tapper have it for giving her a pass for not pursuing her while she was attempting to deflect it and defuse it by laughing.
And apparently he was just overwhelmed with people who thought that he had given her a pass.
And he didn't.
He had continued, he finally did ask the question and get an answer from her in words, not cackling laughter.
And I was unaware of that, so we didn't have that full length of the soundbite.
And uh he wanted me to clarify with all of you who might have misunderstood yesterday that he did continue to pursue the point that he was making or the question that he was asking, and eventually did get an answer.
Uh and I erroneously, I guess left an impression that Jake was in the tank for for Hillary by not pursuing and allowing himself to be sidetracked by her laughter.
And that was not the intent.
The intent yesterday was to show you and everybody else how she deals with the subject when it's brought up.
And so I wanted to straighten that out because Jake uh did not let her slide with just laughter and not pursue it.
Speaking of Jake, grab audio soundbite number one, you know, big kerfuffle, big kerfuffle yesterday over Trump and his comments about George W. Bush.
Hey, Trumpse was in office when 9-11 happened.
I mean, we weren't safe.
We weren't safe.
9-11 happened.
Trump says Jeb's out there saying he kept us safe.
Well, maybe afterward, but we weren't safe before it because it happened.
And Trump's like I'm not, I'm not blaming anybody.
I'm not blaming George.
I'm just telling you what happened.
Well, it turns out Trump has written about this in a book that he wrote.
It was very precious about it early on.
I took the position yesterday because of a finite thing.
I detected after Trump made his comments about George W. Bush.
I knew what was going to happen.
The media was gonna jump on those comments and say, well, well, well, well, then we shouldn't be blaming Hillary if you're if if the reaction to Trump was, wait a minute, somewhere.
I mean, it was not universal.
Some people agreed with Trump.
But some of the reaction of Trump was, wait a minute, you can't you can't blame Bush for that.
He wasn't in office all that long.
He still didn't have his cabinet in place at Florida aftermath and all that.
But then what I knew was going to happen, people glommed onto it to the defenders of Bush.
Wait a minute, you can't blame Bush.
They then came out.
You can't blame Hillary for Benghazi, which was the thing that concerned me most is that this is going to end up, or was going to end up being an exoneration of Hillary Clinton based on a comment that Trump made about Jeb and let's about W. And let's be clear what Trump was doing.
And he pulled it off.
He succeeded.
He's got the Republican establishment.
They don't know which way is up anymore.
They don't know what's up, they don't know what's down, they don't know what's sideways.
They are just totally bamboozled and confused.
What Trump was trying to do, what he succeeded in doing was tied Jeb to his brother.
Bush to Bush.
Not in an incompetent way.
Oh, maybe Trump meant that, I don't know.
But what he was trying to do politically was to further the thought in people's minds that we don't need another Bush for crying out.
We got a Clinton over here, another Bush.
We just had a Bush.
We don't need another Bush.
And he was trying to tie Jeb to Bush to W in a way that was not positive, and Jeb took the bait.
He took the bait, like my cat goes after little lizards.
Well, I tell you, I'm the biggest defender of lizard life in all of South Florida.
I went to bed last night.
You know, I uh my usual time it was 2 a.m.
Now normally what happens, we go to bed and the cat jumps on me and wants to be petted for about 25 or 30 seconds and then leaves.
That didn't happen last night.
So 10, 20 minutes after I think I fell asleep, there is this commotion on the bed.
The cat is going crazy, jumping and doing all kinds of things, just woke me up, and I thought, what in the world is going on?
And I thought nothing of it, and I kept kicking my legs to force the cat off the bed.
Well, when I woke up this morning, I saw a dead lizard on the floor.
The lizard obviously had been in the bed, or else the cat got it and brought it with her to the bed, and it got loose, and she was just playing with it.
So you could say the cat spared me or saved me from a runaway lizard attack last night.
But I love those little lizards.
They're animals, actually.
I love them.
They're our buddies.
They eat insects and all that.
And whenever I see Allie with one, you know, I dart in there, and I grab the little thing and I take it back outside.
And the cat gets mad at me, but I'm sorry, that's the way it is.
I still run the house.
And so anyway, the the point is that Jeb just he he fell for Trump's whatever you want to call it, trick, and immediately began to defend his brother in those words, and just started reminding everybody about that era, which, whether you like it or not, people do not have fond memories of.
So from a political standpoint, it was a very successful venture and effort that uh that Trump had made.
And Jake Tapper talked about that yesterday afternoon.
He was on CNN's newsroom, and it's his show, the lead.
He was uh talking, let's see, who's he talking with here?
Looks like Brooke Baldwin is uh he's talking to somebody in this bite.
And anyway, here's how it went.
What Jeb Bush is doing right now, while it might be bringing some support to him, at least rhetorical support from the likes of Rush Limbaugh and other conservative uh media figures, it still is doing something that I think Trump wanted to achieve, which is it is tying Jeb Bush to the past, to his brother's administration, to the establishment, and elections are about the future, and they're about outsiders, especially this election.
So even if Jeb Bush ends up winning this debate on its merits, and I don't know that he will, he will have been tied even further to yesterday and not tomorrow.
Well, and the key there is being tied to the establishment and tied to what everybody not everybody, a lot of people have is as unpleasant memories, obviously from 9-11.
Um, But the media succeeded in tarnishing the Bush administration.
There was nothing anybody could do to stop it because the Bush administration was not going to defend itself, did not defend itself, and there were just lies and smears going on, particularly for the second term the last four years.
So Trump succeeds in luring Jeb into this little trap.
My concern yesterday, just to be clear about this, my concern was that all of this was going to end up being used by the Democrats on the left to exonerate Hillary.
Because the minute people came out and started to defend uh W from the correlation that Trump was making, it was that the next step was then, well, I mean, if you're gonna be going to exonerate Bush, how can you blame Hillary?
And that's why yesterday I went into a step-by-step comparison of the way Bush handled 9-11 the way Hillary has not handled Benghazi.
Because to me, the point yesterday, whatever Trump was doing, remember we've got these big fireworks hearings coming up on Thursday, which I told you yesterday are not going to amount to anything.
But they're setting it up as though it could be make or break for Hillary.
Because once it's over and she survives it, then they can write the story she has overcome.
She has taken the best they had to offer, and they had nothing.
There was nothing there.
Benghazi zipzi runata, and it's forever erased.
And that's what the attempt is.
With these hearings from the leftist standpoint on Thursday.
So the I just I was trying to make sure that at least people within my orb didn't fall for this idea that Bush that W equals Hillary, and Bush's handling of 9-11 does not equal Hillary's handling or lack of handling of Benghazi.
So appreciate the uh opportunity here to clarify both of those things.
Now, back to back to Trump, it is becoming apparent that Donald Trump, for those of you who still, and there's still a lot of people that think that we're waiting for a Trump peak, and that after that he's out, not going to stay in.
There's still a sizable number of people, particularly in the Republican establishment, who I think now are reduced to hope, but but it's only recently that they've been reduced to hope.
For the longest time they thought this was not serious, that Trump wasn't.
And there was something else going on here besides a presidential candidacy.
And therefore at some point he was going to get out.
What is becoming apparent to them, which you and I, well, I'm going to include most of you in this audience, have known and recognized for the longest time, is that Trump is serious, and he's far more serious than anybody in the establishment has ever acknowledged.
And he is far more adept at modern-day politics than anybody in either party realizes.
What he's doing is bordering on political brilliance.
In parlaying this outsider status of his, he's better at playing the insider's game than they are, and they are insiders.
He's running rings around all of these seasoned, lifelong, highly acclaimed political professionals in both the consultant class, the advisor class, the strategist class, and the candidate class.
And he's doing it simply by being himself.
Here, grab, let's see, grab soundbite 21.
He's continuing now this hit on W, but people are missing the point about this.
He wrote a book.
Let me find this story here.
Trump had a book out.
Here it is.
In the year 2000, 19 months before September 11, 2001, Donald Trump wrote extensively of the terrorism threat the United States was facing.
Trump was, at the time, considering a presidential election.
run on the reform party ticket.
You remember the reform party?
What was the reform party's nerdly little pop quiz here?
Who was the reform party?
Well, it was Pro, but Perot wasn't around, but but you can you can call it Tea Party.
You could call it it was it was a group of of obviously outsiders.
Anyway, Trump was considering a presidential bid on the reform party ticket.
This is in the year 2000.
He went so far, I mean, it wasn't the Tea Party then, but it made the same kind of people.
Same same group of people fed up with inside Washington.
Trump went so far as to say in the year 2000 that an attack on a major U.S. city was not just a probability, but an inevitability.
Quote, I am really convinced we're in danger of the sort of terrorist attacks that will make the bombing of the trade center, talking about 1993, look like kids playing with firecrackers.
The book in the year 2000 was titled The America We Deserve.
He wrote, no sensible analyst rejects this possibility, and plenty of them like me are not wondering if, but when it'll happen.
So Trump is on the record 19 months before 9-11 saying I was on the on the book for it.
I knew it was coming to me.
It was inevitable.
Had I been in the White House, it might not have happened.
That's his whole point today.
And he's got the book that he wrote 19 months beforehand to give himself the credibility and credence on this.
He's not just blabber mouthing.
He's not just doing his, I'm the greatest, we'll be the greatest, I got the smartest, I'll get the smartest, it's going to be fine.
He's getting specific and reminding people what he said and what he felt, what he intuited 19 months before 9-11.
And he can say that while all these other people who were in office or running for office can say they were thinking about it, nobody was nearly as up to speed on it in advance as I was.
In this book that came out 19 months before 9 11, Trump even mentions bin Laden by name in a criticism of an American foreign policy that too quickly jumps from one crisis to the next.
And tell me where you've heard this before.
Quote, one day we're told a shadowy figure with no fixed address name bin Laden's public enemy number one.
U.S. jet fighters lay waste to his camp in Afghanistan.
He escapes back under some rock, and a few news cycles later it's on to a new enemy in a new crisis.
Well, have you heard that before?
You heard it right here on this program.
Crisis, crisis.
One day every day, a new crisis that would keep everybody off balance.
Now, in the year 2000, Bill Clinton was still the president.
And that's what the latest Trump soundbite is about, but it will have to wait till after our obscene profit timeout here.
Be back right after this.
So I checked the email.
There's some people saying, you know, Trump blaming Bush is crazy.
It's like blaming FDR for World War II.
Be very careful, folks, because people did.
People blamed FDR for Pearl Harbor.
Go back.
I mean, even today people say there's still a debate over whether FDR knew and allowed it to happen as an excuse to get in.
The point is it's not unprecedented to blame a sitting president for things that happen and go wrong.
I'll tell you what's unprecedented is a sitting president for seven years, like Obama gets to do great damage to the U.S. economy, and nobody ties him to it.
The millennials don't tie him to it.
It's unreal.
Sitting presidents get blamed for everything that happens on their watch except this guy.
And we all know why.
Yes, yes, we do.
Anyway, here's Trump.
Now, Trump, you know, people uh on the Republican side get very, very sensitive when you start dumping on George W. Bush because everybody thinks he did a great job post-9-11, keeping the Country safe, marshaling forces, unifying the country.
So there's been some backlash to Trump.
So he's on the Fox Business Network today with Stuart Varney.
He says, does former President Clinton have some responsibility, Mr. Trump?
I mean, he was president for eight years before Bush when all this 9-11 stuff was being planned.
I think he does.
But I think they both do.
Was Clinton possibly also guilty?
Yeah, yeah, sure.
He should have, you know, maybe been more vigilant.
And he actually said he knew about Osama bin Laden.
I knew about Osama bin Laden because I wrote about him in my book.
I think 19 months before the World Trade Center came down.
If you read my book, I did have the best vision of anybody.
Because I said Osama bin Laden should be attacked essentially about three years before the event took place.
And I talk all about Osama bin Laden.
He was a very well-known terrorist at the time.
He was.
He had gone on ABC News to say that he thought we were paper tiger because of the way we cut and ran out of uh Somalia.
Black Hawk Down incident.
Anyway, hang tough folks just getting warmed up here.
Yeah, we back.
Great to have you.
El Rushbow, Cutting Edge Societal Evolution.
In Trump's book, The America We Deserve, published in 2000, and again, 19 months before the attacks on the World Trade Center.
In this book, Trump predicted a major attack on an American city that would involve weapons of mass destruction.
He wrote, yet it's time to get down to the hard business of preparing for what I believe is the real possibility that someone, sometime, somewhere, a weapon of mass destruction will be carried into a major American city and detonated.
Now it's not unusual.
He was not the only one.
I don't want anybody to misunderstand.
Let's not forget.
Heck, it's not, let's not forget.
Let's remember.
People forget so much about the Clinton administration, particularly during the Lewinsky period.
Clinton was doing anything he could to distract from the Lewinsky situation, such as bombing an aspirin factory in Africa and sending bombs into Baghdad on a Saturday night, killed a janitor at an office building.
But if you go back, which we did, and we have the sound bites.
I mean, don't have them today.
I don't want them today, but uh get bogged down in this.
But he go back and you listen to Bill Clinton make the case against Saddam Hussein and weapons of mass destruction in 1998, 1999.
You know what you'll find?
You'll find every Democrat who voted for it along with George Bush saying the same thing Bill Clinton was saying.
Saddam Hussein, worst guy on earth.
Saddam Hussein, gotta go.
Saddam Hussein working on weapons and mass destruction.
Saddam Hussein not letting the inspectors in.
Clinton led the pact.
So when Bush came along, George W. Bush, after 9-11, started ramping up his effort for Iraq, it was uncanny because the intel was the same.
Clinton had the same intel that Bush got.
People for conveniently forget that Clinton even talked about.
Well, my point is that Trump was listening, like everybody else, and bin Laden had already become well known.
Remember, I think it was Sudan that even offered Bill Clinton Osama bin Laden.
And this was dating back to the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, and other evidence that we had of bin Laden's involvement in terror actions against U.S. institutions and people all over the world.
At that point, Clinton was fighting the war on terror legally in court, indictments and so forth.
The wall was up, Jamie Garellick, CIA could not share intel with the FBI and vice versa.
So Clinton rejected Sudan's offer of bin Laden because he said we didn't have a legal mechanism for accepting him.
Had we been dealing with bin Laden as an enemy combatant, it would not have been a problem to accept it.
But Clinton didn't want to go there because Clinton was trying to portray that he was keeping the country safe and that there really wasn't a danger of terrorism, because he had it all handled.
In the legal system, it was a it was crass irresponsibility On Clinton's part.
This Lewinsky busy, nobody said, well, it didn't involve any sex.
It didn't hamper his doing his job, but it did most certainly.
It impaired Clinton doing his job in a major way in this specific area and regard.
But the point that Trump is making here, and he's pressured, he's not just being bellicose and bombastic.
He's actually on the record as having warned about it.
So his point is that they might not have gotten away with it on 9-11 if Trump had been president because he was more prepared and attuned to the possibility than anybody else was.
And he can make the statement.
He's got the backup.
I mean, it's something nobody could ever prove or disprove, obviously.
But remember what Trump's doing, folks.
He is running against the establishment.
No matter who they are, Republican or Democrat.
And his point is the establishment has just botched everything.
And the American people are fully aware of it now.
And nobody in the establishment is safe.
There are no protected classes or people there as far as Trump is concerned.
He knows where his strength comes from.
He knows how he's built it.
He knows how he's going to continue to build it and grow it.
And the people in the establishment are just playing right along with it, not knowing.
All these highly paid, highly talented professionals in this business are having rings run around them.
You see the latest polling data?
There's a couple of polls out.
One of them is in Florida.
And this is a poll that has up-ended a lot of people.
This is a University of North Florida statewide poll of Republican primary likely voters.
This is the home state of Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio.
Donald Trump's at 22%.
Ben Carson at 19%.
Marco Rubio at 15%.
And Jeb Bush is at 9%.
Ask the name.
There's second choice.
20.1% said Rubio.
14.9% said Carson.
11.1% said Fiorina.
Trump was the second choice of 6% of.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm getting to that.
Just hang tough.
People shouted, What about what W said about Cruz?
Just hang in there.
We're coming to it.
I would love how great it would be.
The first monologue of this segment, do all three hours and go home.
That would just be I haven't figured out how to do that yet.
But boy, yeah, if I could say everything I wanted to say in 15 minutes, I'd be the first one on that bus.
At any rate, this is this news is this is incomprehensible to the establishment leaders of the Republican figure this out.
Jeb Bush, Jeb and Marco together ought to own this state.
Trump moving in there as an outsider at 22%.
We have the latest NBC Wall Street Journal poll.
Donald Trump and Ben Carson continue to broaden their appeal among Republican primary voters and have widened their lead over Jeb Bush and many other more experienced candidates.
That is the Wall Street Journal version.
The NBC News version.
Real estate mogul Donald Trump remains the front runner in the Republican presidential field, while former neurosurgeon Ben Carson holds a close second place.
With the backing of 25% of Republican primary voters, Donald Trump is at his highest level of support in the poll since entering the race.
Highest level of support since entering the race in this poll.
Ben Carson now gets the support at 22% of Republican voters.
That's remaining within the margin of error of Trump.
Last month, 21% chose Trump.
First choice, 20% picked Carson.
So Trump is up four.
Carson is up one.
The new poll surveyed respondents from October 15th to this past Sunday saw a slight dip in support for Carly Fiorina.
She fell from 11 to 7.
That's not that that's more than a slight dip.
She has she's uh ditched here out of out of double digits.
While Trump leads when GOP primary voters are asked about their first choice, Carson boasts the highest share of voters who say they can see themselves supporting him.
So Trump, number one with 22%, or 25%.
But then saying people, okay, who's your second choice if your guy doesn't get it?
Ben Carson runs away with everybody's second choice, and Trump is 6% as everybody's second choice.
Now I want to remind you what we've been hearing from the establishment all of this time.
That Trump, in fact, they said Trump peaked about a month ago.
There was a there was one poll, kind of an outlier poll, which showed Trump had lost a point and a half or two points.
Another poll that showed Trump even and the establishment is getting all hot and bothered.
All right, that's what they're saying.
This is cool.
This is what we knew was going to happen.
Trump's leveling off, Trump's peaked.
Trump is only downhill from here.
Do you know that Donald Trump has been number one in the polls for more days than are remaining until the Hawkeye Cockeye?
And the establishment's still waiting for Trump to bomb out.
Still waiting for this magical gaffe, or the discovery of something nobody knows about Trump that's so embarrassing that he's got no choice but then to get out of the race.
Those are the two slim things the establishment's holding on to.
But all this time, they have been telling us it's downhill from here.
All of these months at the top, all of these months, number one in the polls, has been telling the establishment it's about over.
If Jeb Bush were Donald Trump since this race began, if if Donald Trump's numbers were Jeb Bush's, everybody would declare this over.
They would have declared it over months ago.
And the news would be devoted to telling the other candidates to get out.
And let's unify.
Let's coalesce.
Let's get behind good old Jib.
That's what they've been saying.
If Jeb Bush hit 25%, they would be doing everything they can to call us off.
It's over with.
Let's unify.
Let's get ready to go into Hawkeye Calcai and in a New Hampshire and in South Carolina, Nevada, and let's disown this.
But with Trump, it's, well, you know, we're right where we want to be this far out.
We're at 8%.
That's right.
Right where we want to be.
8%.
We are poised for the eventual Trump fall from grace.
But Trump has been at the top for more days than are remaining until the first ballots are cast.
Well, yeah, it's kind of hard for the establishment to admit it, but I mean you got Carson and Trump both gaining ground in a in a poll that everybody in Washington accepts.
The NBC Wall Street Journal poll is as golden as the CBS New York Times poll is.
And it is becoming more and more obvious that voters, particularly on the Republican side, really, really have no use for Washington politics as usual.
They have no use for it.
They're up to speed on it.
They don't want any more of it.
They're not being fooled by it.
They don't want any part of it.
Every chance they have to show their support for outsiders, they are doing it.
And if you're a member of the establishment, it's got to be tough.
It's got to be, I mean, they're they're facing major, major rejection.
And these are the big money people.
These are the experts.
These are the highly paid, highly touted professionals who run around telling everybody else only they know how to get enough votes to get a candidate elected.
Now, there's a the story at Vox.com.
I want to get to this uh in the next hour.
Something you've again heard on this program ever since the 2010 midterms, and that is how bad it is for the Democrat Party in elective office all over this country.
They are down over 1,000 elected seats in state governments and city governments.
They are in deep, deep doo-doo.
And they figured this out over at Vox, which is, you know, a young uh explainer journalism would.
It's a bunch of liberals that grew tired of working for the big guys, so they started their own, got some funding, which is what liberals do.
Uh, and they claim their site is to explain the news, not report it.
Um, and one of their explainers today is just how deep the trouble is for the Democrat Party nationwide outside the White House.
But to the phones, here's uh here's Scott in Los Angeles.
I'm glad you called, sir.
Great, great, great to have you here.
Hi.
Scott, are you there?
Thanks for telling me.
Todd Sandiego, you're next.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
I'll give you my son's uh comment.
Epic Ditto's Rush.
Yeah.
That's what he says when I when I read something out of one of the Rush Revere books that that he thinks is really cool.
He says, That's epic, Dad.
Uh if Trump is gonna start with uh Bush number two being the uh being the part of the culprit, and that's when I read his when I read his language, when I read his words, we all know words mean things.
He's partially put in blame on Bush 43 for the terrorist attacks.
Yeah, he is.
He and he's he's okay, but why stop there?
Let's go all the way back to Carter and Reagan, because it was Alley North that warned us in 1976 who the problem was.
So it's it's it's not Bush 43, and I agree with you yesterday, and I've been posting it on online a lot.
Bush came in, he had hanging chads for eight months, he had uh uh lawsuit for eight months.
He he didn't change out his cabinet, which is definitely his fault.
Um but you know how this works.
They inherit Yeah, but see that's not what Trump's interest Trump doesn't care about that.
That's what that's not Trump's object.
Trump is not trying to make the case that Bush is responsible.
He's trying to make the case that we weren't safe, whatever anybody thinks Jeb saying we were safe, we weren't safe.
We were attacked when Bush was in office, and we might not have been if I'd been there.
I he's touting himself, but what he's doing is political.
He's trying to draw Jeb in to defending his brother, getting Jeb focused and locked into the past, and illustrating that Jeb is the establishment guy when Trump is succeeding by being the exact opposite.
So he lured Jeb in with this trap to defend his brother, admitting he's an establishment guy.
That's the first thing that matters.
It is Trump simply exposing the vulnerabilities of his opponents.
It's really, really not about taking George W. Bush to task.
Well, okay, I'm holding the double-edged sword because I don't totally trust Trump.
Um I I don't I don't agree with this tact for politics.
I think it's I think it's, you know, more Trump kind of shooting off the hip again.
Um I don't know, I don't agree with it because there's no purpose in re in in rehashing old uh business, especially when it's completely not in proper context.
I don't think Trump put this in proper context by going after Bush.
He should have why didn't he go after Clinton?
Our target is the left.
If our target is the left, well, he did.
We just we just we just he just Went after Clinton this morning.
He just because he's getting hit, I'm sure, from people who have the same reaction that you've had.
So he's he's making my point.
He's not he's not trying to go after and destroy George W. Bush here.
He's trying to beat Jeb by luring Jeb into a behavior mode that doesn't help Jeb.
It was purely political what he did, but he's got the book that he wrote, making himself look to be prescient on this long before it happened.
It's a scorcher, it's a barn burner.
We are sizzling today here on the EIB network.
