Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Holy cow, folks, Trump derangement syndrome is spreading.
Trump derangement syndrome is everywhere.
It literally is everywhere.
Well, we're not deranged here because we don't get deranged about anything.
But I mean the drive-bys.
The Democrats, many in the Republican Party, are just beside themselves now.
They don't know what to do.
For example, from CBS News, get Trump off ballot, demands ex-New Hampshire Republican leader, a former chairman of the New Hampshire Republican Party wants Trump off the GOP primary ballot.
Guy's name is Fergus Cullen.
He filed a formal complaint yesterday.
Wait till you hear this, challenging Trump's eligibility to appear on the ballot as a Republican because of his inconsistent views.
He should not be permitted on the ballot because of his inconsistent views.
And quote, his purpose to sabotage the Republican Party.
It is my belief that Mr. Trump must present evidence that he is a registered member of the Republican Party because his views are inconsistent with the Republican Party platform and the Republican Party of New Hampshire's statement of principles and bylaws.
It's a six-page manifesto outlining every one of what Fergus Cullen says are Trump's flip-flops dating back to 1999.
Who knew that you could be prohibited from running for election for having inconsistent views?
And Nate Silver at 538 is polling Wonder Kind.
It used to be at the New York Times that uh leftists invested all of their hope and prayers in in 2012.
He's telling everybody, look, all you people worried about Trump, forget it.
The polling data right now doesn't mean anything because nobody's paying attention.
All of this is superfluous.
This is all going to change when we get into the new year, and we're only a month or so away from the Hawkeye cockyeye.
He said, You're gonna see an entirely different picture once polling begins as we get near the election.
So stop fretting it.
Trump's not gonna be anywhere.
He doesn't come out and say that specifically, that's the overall point.
And did you see where Turkey shot down a military jet of Archduke Ferdinand?
Archduke Ferdinand's uh military jet shot down over.
It's just my way of saying that everybody thinks I mean, everybody.
You know, it is amazing to me.
It really is.
How um I don't know, what's what's the word?
Unified.
See, you have Turkey shoots down a Russian jet.
And I don't look at one place, you look at a hundred.
This is exactly how World War I started.
Oh my god, oh my god, World War I!
Oh no.
And it becomes uniform.
And it may be.
I mean, it may Putin is saying there's gonna be payback.
He feels like he's been stabbed in the back here.
But it's not just they shot down the warplane, then the the the whoever did the shooting shot down the two pilots in the air as they were parachuting on, and then they shot the rescue helicopter, the Russian rescue helicopter.
And they videotaped all this, and while they're over the downed pilots and the downed helicopter wreckage, you hear him shouting Allahu Akbar.
Uh God is great.
Meanwhile, everybody's keeping an eye on Iran here to see, because they're the ones running the show on uh on all of this.
And it it will be, I mean, it could who knows what's gonna happen, but it has a lot of people on edge.
Well, if if Russia, yes, if Russia attacks Turkey, we have to join Turkey against Russia and Putin because Turkey is a NATO partner.
And there is a pledge among NATO members that if one of them is attacked, the others band together and defend them.
Well, the only others are us.
And so that would then pit us against Russia in defense of Turkey, which is helping ISIS.
This is a mess.
This is a total mess.
And it would it's not hard to pinpoint why.
But if I were to say it, I would be accused of the same thing I'm accusing all these drive-by, drawing this comparison to well, if Obama was providing standard ordinary, expected American leadership in the last seven years, we wouldn't even be here.
There wouldn't be an Iran ascending to run the entire Middle East because they wouldn't have been enabled to create a military weapons program.
None of this would have happened.
It's safe to say if anybody else had been elected president.
Now, if Hillary had won the Democrat nomination, I don't know.
But we're dealing, we're dealing with a dangerous set of circumstances.
On the one hand, we've got leadership incompetence, or maybe leadership absence on the part of Obama.
It's just not something he wants to do.
And by the way, don't get on me, it was Obama who said it last week at that press conference he had in Turkey, where he said he's not into sloganeering and these concepts of American leadership and American victory winning.
Those are things that make him uncomfortable.
It's not what this is really all about.
You can interpret that in any number of ways, but one thing he doesn't want to lead, he doesn't want the U.S. in a leadership or dominant position.
And the reasons for that are multi.
He doesn't think that we deserve it.
We are not the world superpower.
We're illegitimate.
You know the drill.
What my opinion of Obama's position, position, opinion of the United States is.
So everybody is a lot of people understandably worried about what comes next, because this is Vladimir Putin who has been attacked.
And Putin is interested in winning, and Putin is interested in Russian leadership.
And Putin does want to be allied with whoever ends up running the Middle East.
Winning and victory and leadership are not concepts that Putin finds nervous or embarrassing.
He finds them challenging.
So this could go any number of places.
We just have to sit and watch, see how it uh plays out.
Meanwhile, Francois Hollande is in Washington, arrived this morning, made a little meeting with Obama next to the fireplace and the Oval Office, and now a joint press conference taking place.
We're not gonna jip it.
Whatever happens or is said there, we'll have it when it is over.
But basically the news was that Olan came here asking Obama for help in dealing with the aftermath or aftermath of the attacks uh in Paris a couple of uh Fridays ago.
And that's a very it's a standard ordinary thing.
Your country gets hit, where do you go?
You go to the U.S., you go to America for help, you go to America for backup, you go to America for leadership.
Well, he's here seeking all of that, but he's not gonna get it.
He's not gonna get it in the traditional ways America, because Obama doesn't look at the U.S. as the solution to these problems.
In many ways, Obama thinks that we are the cause.
And in his case, he's right.
There was no ISIS before he became president.
Uh Obama basically abrogating Iraq, opened all of this up.
And then all those phony red lines for Assad not to cross with no action taken when Assad crossed them.
Benghazi, Libya, I mean, we we invested in the Muslim Brotherhood, and we ended up losing an ally in Egypt, uh, Libya.
We had a dictator in Libya, but he was outs outside of Libya, was not posing a threat to anybody.
Now it's just everything's up in arms, everything's turned upside down.
And Turkey thought to be an ally of ours, is offering a uh presenting a serious challenge.
In the meantime, there's an intelligence controversy involving CENTCOM and Obama.
And when I get to that portion of the program and explain it, you'll see that it is a classic implementation of the limbaugh theorem.
And if you are new to the program and are unaware of the limbaugh theorem, let me briefly explain it.
The Limbaugh theorem was developed, devised by a frustrated radio host named Rush Limbaugh to try to explain why it is that Barack Obama is never held accountable for all of the mistakes that he makes.
Be it bad policy, be it bad legislation, be it whatever.
People that voted for Barack Obama do not blame him for the economy.
How does that happen?
People that voted for Barack Obama to unify the world and make it a safe place in the United States loved again.
The exact opposite has happened.
People who voted for Obama do not blame him.
Why?
And that's what the Limbaugh theorem sought to explain and does explain.
And that will come in the as the program unfolds.
But this Trump derangement system.
Give you an example here in addition to Fergus Cullen in New Hampshire, who wants Trump off the ballot there because of his inconsistent views.
New York Times editorial, Mr. Trump's applause lies.
I mean, the Libs folks are beside themselves here on this.
They are turning themselves inside out and upside down and into knots.
Over Trump's claim that tens of thousands of Muslims were cheering in New Jersey.
They have done all kinds of fact-checking.
They've looked everywhere.
They can't find any evidence of it, except there's a Washington Post story that did chronicle some Muslims cheering on 9-11.
It wasn't tens of thousands.
But they're beside themselves.
They also can't believe how outrageous Trump is.
The things he said, there are now stories that are attempting to analyze, dissect and explain the Trump strategy of saying all of this outrageous stuff.
The assumption is that Trump knows what he's doing, that he knows he's saying things that aren't true, and he's reading, I'll tell you what they think he's doing.
I got a piece today.
I had a friend of mine.
This is this is, by the way, as an isolated episode, not related to Trump.
This is this is so informative.
Friend of mine in high finance sent me this, you got you, you gotta read this, you've got to, oh my god, oh my God, look at this.
This is some piece by Bill Bennett.
And the piece is about how the Republicans and Democrats are going to get together to assassinate Trump.
And these guys think that Bill Bennett wrote it.
So you go to Bill Bennett's website, you can't find a thing.
It's just totally made up, but because it's printed, they believe it.
It's incredible.
At any rate, what they now think, they think Trump reads all of that kind of stuff and believes it.
They think he reads every phantom internet spam, insane kook blog post and believes them all and then retweets them or Facebook them or whatever.
And they think that when Trump sees it in print, whatever it is, and however outrageous it is that he believes it because it's in print.
Then others think, no, he really doesn't, but he's purposely making people think that he does.
Why is he knowingly saying such outrageous things?
And then when called on it, why does he double down?
So the great minds of political science in Washington and New York and Boston accorder have gotten together and they're trying to analyze why Trump does this.
And they think the answer can be found in Trump's statements previously about how to negotiate a deal.
And they're just grasping.
And now they're they're they're worried.
Why do these people who say they're going to vote for Trump, why does none of what he says that's so outrageous the drive-by's?
Why does it not bother any of his supporters?
They just can't understand it.
And once again, that is even more evidence of the great disconnect.
People who work and live in Washington vis a vis the rest of the people in the country.
Dana Milbank at the Washington Pope, GOP, Washington Post, GOP running out of time to find the anti-Trump.
They're still, I told you yesterday and last week, they're still in denial.
That this isn't real.
That Trump's going to be off and doing something else once the year turns and he's bored and made his point.
They go back to TV.
Do you remember last week I told you that this super pack of John Kasichs was out raising money and they've found they've had it.
Kasich's so fed up with all this insanity that Trump is saying, and people believing it's just silly what's happened to his party, what's happening to conservative movement, that his super PAC raising money for the express purposes of producing ads that are going to destroy Trump.
Do you want to hear the first one?
Fine.
What they've, it's 47 seconds.
You'll have to go to a website.
We'll post the video at Rushlinbaugh.com, but it's the audio that you'll hear here.
And all it is, by the way, it's audio soundbite number one.
All it is, it's called Trump's Greatest Hits Part 1.
And it is Trump in various video settings simply saying what the Kasich people think are outrageous and insane and lunatic.
And if people knew about it, they would abandon Trump.
Here's how it sounds.
He's not a war hero.
He's a war hero.
Five and a half years ago.
He's a war hero because he was captured.
If Ivanko weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her.
Oh, it's so weird.
I have a great relationship with the blacks.
I have I've always had a great relationship with the blacks.
The blacks.
Well, I just don't respect her as a journalist.
You know, you can see there was blood coming out of her eyes.
Uh blood coming out of her, wherever.
Somebody's doing the raping, Don.
I mean, you know, it's I mean, somebody's doing the just say it's women being raped.
Well, who's doing the raping?
Belt wolves this way.
Moves this way.
How stupid are the people of Iowa?
So the Kasich Super PAC first destroy Trump ad, that's it.
And it's just the video of where Trump said those things.
They've that I don't I'm I'm guessing they think that most people supporting Trump don't know that he said these things, and once they find out, they're gonna be appalled.
What they're doing is projecting their own reaction onto other people.
They're assuming that they are just like every other average Trump supporter.
Yet they know that they aren't because they laugh at, make fun of, and are afraid of Trump supporters because they think they're idiots.
But this is projection.
It just they're wasting their money, but it's their money to waste.
I gotta take a break.
Greetings, welcome back.
Great to have you.
Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
I mean, let me try to break down something here.
Last, maybe it was yesterday, I forget which.
This is already Tuesday.
This statement of Trump's that tens of thousands of Muslims cheered on 9-11.
And he's challenged them.
I saw it, I saw it, I saw it there in New Jersey, I saw it.
Media goes into fact check mode.
Media can't find any stories, except there was one in the Washington Post.
There was a Washington Post story in which it was reported that there were Muslims cheering 9-11, uh that the towers being hit on 9-11 in New Jersey on the date, 9-11.
None of the fact checkers reported it.
They overlooked it.
They did not report that the Washington Post had actually reported what Trump is saying.
The only difference is the Washington Post does not say tens of thousands, and Trump is.
So the drive-bys leave that out, and they think they've got Trump.
They think they've got Trump in a lie.
They think they've got Trump exaggerating.
Except Trump is, if anything, is only exaggerating, but he's not wrong.
There were Muslims in New Jersey cheering 9-11, and the American people.
key.
The American people know it.
The American people saw videotape of Muslims around the world cheering a 9-11.
The American people know full well that Obama's pastor.
From the pulpit said America's chickens.
See, the thing is, the great disconnect is that Trump is not wrong on fact.
He may exaggerate and blow it out of proportion, but he's not wrong on fact.
The drive-bys are trying to make it look like he's wrong on fact when he's not, and the American people know it before Trump says a word about it.
Then when you find out that the Washington Post did report it, and the drive-by is ignoring that in their fact check, they double down on their support even more for Trump because they don't trust the media and the way they're trying to discredit him.
Well, my friends, in one of the biggest, most blatant examples of butt kissing I have ever seen.
The French president Francois Hollande in a joint presser with Obama just concluded his statement before the media praising Obama for his commitment to fighting climate change.
Now here comes the president of France arriving here desperately looking for assistance, advice, help, whatever.
Looking for some muscle in fighting ISIS because of what ISIS did in France and continues to do.
And thought that the best way to go about it was to publicly praise Obama's commitment to climate change.
Giant example of butt kissing.
For his part, they just finished the statements in a reporterette stood up and asked Obama about the Turks shooting down the Russian warplane.
By the way, don't forget, the Russians just lost a civilian airliner, too.
Somebody shot down one of their civilian jets.
ISIS taking the credit.
The two pilots of their warplane here, and by the way, it was an American F-16 that did the damage.
An American F-16, not owned by us.
We sold it.
American F-16 shot down the uh the Russian warplane.
And then the two pilots ejected.
There's video of what the UK Daily Mail has the most incredible video and pictures of this you've ever seen.
And the two pilots parachute out, and uh ISIS claims that they killed them in the air, gunned them down while they were floating to Earth on their parachutes.
Then a Russian helicopter made its way to the crash site looking for the survivors, and they took the helicopter out.
Putin has just got to be steaming here.
So anyway, this reporter stands up and asks Obama what it all means.
And he said, well, we don't yet know what really happened.
We're still getting all the details.
But I'll tell you what, it's a very important thing.
We've got to look into it.
I'm going to be talking to the Turkish Prime Minister president of the head honcho there.
I'm going to talk to him in a few days.
And then he said he really hopes that the Russians and the Turks will sit down and keep talking to one another.
Looking for common ground as they continue to dialogue with each other.
So conflict resolution 101 has been requested by the uh by the president.
This is, I don't know, always fascinates me the way the left responds.
Remember, this is a world governed by the aggressive use of force.
That may offend people, it may scare you.
You might even think that it's nutty and crazy.
You are dangerously wrong if you believe that.
I care whether you like it or not, whether you want it to be true or not, or you wish it weren't true.
It is true.
It has always been true, and It always will be true.
It is because of the essence of human nature.
Ours is a world governed by the aggressive use of force, and we see it every day.
And we see what happens to people that do not respond.
The aggressor always sets the rules in any conflict.
It's not just the use of force that governs the world, the aggressive use of war.
That is a key component of my theorem.
The aggressive use of force.
When you when you add that to it, you're you're establishing offense and defense or defense, and that's where we are.
We're clearly on the defensive in all of this.
We're not being aggressive about anything.
Purposefully.
It is the new administration regime policy.
That's the new America.
Bystander, to the extent that we can say it's not our fault, if it is our fault, then we apologize.
guys.
And Obama has a track record of that as well.
But Vladimir Putin, I will guarantee you, understands, believes and practices the belief, the theory, that ours is a world governed by the aggressive use of force.
Now, back to this uh Trump situation.
I played for you the ad that the Kasich Super PAC put together.
This is the first of what will be many ads designed to take Trump out.
In fact, I'm gonna play that for you again because there's another ad, the Jeb Bush campaign ad that is somewhat similar to the Kasich ads structure and uh conception.
And the Kasich Super PAC, they're fed up.
They think people have been playing patty cake with Trump.
It's time to take off the gloves.
It's time to get serious.
We've got to take this guy out.
And we gotta take this guy out by informing his voters exactly who he is.
His voters are blind.
His voters, his supporters are essentially mind numb robots.
They have been they have been paralyzed to support.
They don't know who it is they're supporting.
He's a madman.
And the the Kasich Super PAC intends to run a series of ads demonstrating this, trying to peel off Trump supporters.
So here's that ad.
It's 47 seconds, and immediately after it is a Jeb Bush ad from back in October.
Or October, that is much the same approach.
We'll play him back to back.
Here's number one.
He's not a war hero.
He's a war hero.
Five and a half years ago.
He's a war hero because he was captured.
If Ivanko weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her.
Oh, it's so weird.
I have a great relationship with the blacks.
I have I've always had a great relationship with the blacks.
The blacks.
Well, I just don't respect her as a journalist.
You know, you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes.
Uh blood coming out of her, whatever.
Somebody's doing the raping, Don.
I mean, you know, it's I mean, somebody's doing the just say it's women being raped.
Well, who's doing the raping?
Moves this way.
How stupid are the people of Iowa?
And that last comment when Trump fell out of the number one slot to poll.
He uh with a smile on his face.
Hey, what are you people of Iowa doing to me?
How stupid are you?
Carson, are you kidding me?
Is normal, usual stand-up.
So that's the first and what will be many ads in the Kasich Super PAC designed to embarrass and humiliate Trump supporters into renouncing their support.
The Jeb Bush campaign, this next ad, this is an internet ad, runs a minute and a half, and it is produced along the same lines with the same intent.
What do you talk to for military advice right now?
Well, I watch the shows.
I mean, I really see a lot of great, you know, when you watch your show and all of the other shows, he has said publicly that he watches cable news, and that's one of the ways that he phones up on our national security.
Trump says he, quote, always felt that I was in the military despite never serving in the military and draft deferments during Vietnam.
There's nobody bigger or better at the military than I am.
Donald Trump said Senator John McCain is not a war hero.
He's not a war hero.
I like people that weren't captured.
Okay.
Who do you think among the presidential candidates would be The best qualified to make a deal with the Ryan.
I think Kerry would have Hillary's always surrounded herself with very good people.
I think Hillary would do a good job.
So the deal is in a Trump administration.
It's very tough to do when you say rip up a deal, because I'm a deal person.
When he goes on this radio program and doesn't know who some of the major players are.
I mean, you say, you know, dealing with killers, people that Donald Trump doesn't like to be questioned on the issue.
Trump is weak on policy.
When you are running for the presidency of the United States of America, the most important title is commander in chief.
They should have a working knowledge.
There's no excuse for him not to be prepared for these questions.
Donald Trump was not able to do that.
So that should be concerning to voters.
Donald Trump is causing the race toward the bottom.
It's delusional.
Mr. Trump did not have a firm grasp of what was really going on.
I will be so good at the military, your head will spin.
Let me tell you, I'm a really smart guy.
Okay, so the Jeb Bush ad is designed to inform Trump supporters that he's a dunce on the military and a pretender, and he doesn't know anything other than what he sees on cable TV, watches the news to find out what's happening in the world, and he's just a great deal maker, and he'd go out there and he would really cream people.
He just felt like he was in the military, but he never has been.
But he says, loves the military, the military loves him, and he's a really smart guy.
So those two ads, the first one by the K6 Super PAC, and the last one by the Bush campaign from October, are in the same uh mold, if you will, designed to try to wake up these Trump supporters and tell them that they're supporting a phony.
That they're told they're supporting a guy that doesn't believe what he says, and you shouldn't believe what he says because he doesn't believe it.
And if he does believe it, then he's insane.
Um what what I take out of this?
I shouldn't say this.
I'm sorry, I these two ads.
This is these two ads.
The first one, the Kasich Super PAC.
Now, by law, Kasich's not allowed to have any contact with the super PAC.
So don't anybody think that Kasich had anything to do with the ad.
It's the Kasich Super PAC.
I mean, candidates will tell you, hey, I don't control what my super PAC does.
I'm not even allowed to talk to them.
That's why they can raise all this money.
I can't coordinate and ever do coordinate, it'd be against the law.
I'd be called out.
But the people running it very loudly and proudly proclaim it to be the Kasich Super PAC, the Bush campaign.
What what I take away from this is how identical, similar, let's say, how similar the thinking between Kasich and Bush and the media is.
If you didn't know that the Kasich Super PAC had put that ad together, if you didn't notice the Jeb Bush ad, you would think somebody in the media did it to set up a Trump interview.
Isn't that interesting?
Hey, we're back.
Rush Limbaugh, by the way, great to have you here.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program's 800 282-2882, the email address L Rushmow and EIB net.com.
We start in San Diego.
John, great to have you on the program, sir.
Hello.
Hey, happy early Thanksgiving to you, Rush.
Um, these ads that we're getting already from the Republican establishment is gonna be the death of them come November, because if they're gonna push another, you know, McCain or Romney type candidate on us.
I'm voting for Hillary.
I'm I'm done with them eating their own.
Are you kidding me?
I'm voting for Hillary.
I hate to say it, but at least with Hillary, you know what you're gonna get, you know, with these phony baloneys like McConnell and you don't mean that.
You're just saying that.
You're just saying that to get a rise out of people.
I'm gonna vote for her or just stay home like in 2012.
One or the other.
I'm just I'm done.
But you have a good week.
Good Thanksgiving, and I'll I'll take my uh.
No, wait, wait, wait, wait, don't don't don't go away.
You're not mad at me, are you?
I mean, I just I'm just incredulous.
I'm not mad at you.
Don't don't don't don't think that I'm don't think you gotta run away here, unless you have to go.
Well, no, I got I'm in San Diego and it's about 80 degrees out, so I gotta get out there and enjoy it.
But uh I'm just you know, here we go again.
And you know, the name calling and the attacks by our own on some like a Ted Cruz.
Oh, wait till wait until Donald does drop out.
Well, get this.
Let me tell you something else.
I mean, this is really gonna frost you before you go out and start enjoying the weather in San Diego.
They some people in New Hampshire are releasing a poll they did that shows that Mitt Romney is the preferred Republican candidate in New Hampshire.
He's not even running.
Um in 2012, maybe.
They need to wake up.
That's ridiculous.
Boston Globe, it's it's a Boston Globe poll claims that Romney would enter the race if he would enter in New Hampshire, that he would win.
The whole thing.
I don't know.
I don't know what's in the water back there, but uh we need to wake up.
It's you know, time's running out.
But thanks.
Thanks for taking my call, Rox.
You bet you bet.
Join the weather out there in San Diego.
What sounds like it?
The Romney story, the Romney Paul story.
It's a Boston Globe.
It could be Planet, I guess.
You know, a bunch of comedy bastards in the media.
Eh, well, Romney forces at work, it could be, I don't know.
You think Romney wants to run again?
Oh, you do.
Really?
Romney wants Mr. Snurdley shouting at me here that he thinks Romney wants to run and is is is angling to get people to beg him to come in, sort of like as a as a savior, and yeah, and and and maybe win this time.
You know, maybe maybe get it done.
Anyway, uh look, what our first caller said here, these ads that are being run against Trump by other Republicans.
This happens in in primaries.
Candidates in the same party run attack ads on each other.
It's nothing unusual about it.
It's part and parcel of the process.
But in this case, the Trump supporters are really, really being offended by it, and they're doubling down their support for Trump.
And now they're starting to threaten the establishment.
You guys keep this up.
We're not even going to show up for it.
We'll vote actively against you.
If we think you have destroyed candidate we prefer.
I just say it again.
And it's it's really irrelevant, but I think it's worth mentioning.
The people that we consider to be the establishment types, the inside professional political class people, which includes elected officials, strategists, congressional staffers, media, K Street lobby, that whole club of inside the beltway professional politicians, all of whom, every damn one of them, make their living, which is a significantly nice living off of government.
Really, really, really do not know how much they are resented.
They must, they must really not know.
Because if they do know, this is the strangest way I have ever seen of people trying to bridge a gap.
Insulting your opponents, insulting your own team members, has never been shown to work.
And yet they're all doubling down on this rather than trying to find ways to build a bridge to these people.
It's a strangest, strangest thing.
So I I don't know.
I don't know if they really, really are that out of touch, or if they are totally supremely aware of how much they are resented and disliked and so forth, and just don't care.
Except every four years at election time, but beyond that.
The rest of the country may as well not matter.
But this comprises both parties.
Folks, this is not the difference in the Republicans and Democrats on this is I mean, you got Bernie Sanders.
He's he's a is a genuine Democrat kook.
Okay.
And the media is pointing out, you know, Bernie Sanders is doing better in the Democrat primary than Trump is in the Republican primary in in many ways, terms of the amount of support.
The point is, The Democrat establishment do not doubt me.
There's no way Bernie Sanders is going to be the nominee.
But they are not out trying to destroy the guy.
And they're not out there insulting and distancing themselves from Bernie's supporters.
They're trying to convert them to Hillary.
They're trying to bring him back.
They don't want to tick them off.
Contrast that with the way the Republican establishment is and really for the past number of years has always acted toward members of its own base.
It's a big difference.
I just read the most incredible New York Times story.
This is I guess the New York Times.
Now it's the LA Times.
