Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 247 podcast.
We have a couple of uh fairly big endorsements that just happened, ladies and gentlemen.
And of course, the EIB network and the Rush Limbaugh program just now happening on Friday.
So live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open line Friday.
Amen and what a day this is gonna be.
I can just sense it.
I mean, literally loaded with exciting things here to talk about.
Can't wait to get into all of it.
Don't know what to start with first.
But whatever it is that interests you, hang on because we will get to it today before this program expires in three hours.
Tell the phone number 800 282-2882 if you want to be on the program and the email address, L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
Open line Friday means.
Rank amateur callers can talk about whatever they want to talk about.
That's the career risk.
Lovable rank amateur callers.
Okay, the two endorsements, National Review has officially endorsed Ted Cruz this morning.
And their piece, their their editorial endorsement, is posted at uh National Review Online, or soon will be, I think it's out now.
And I just got word that Phyllis Schlafley and Ed Martin, who is the uh the president of the Eagle Forum, will endorse Donald Trump today at a noontime rally in St. Louis.
Now, I I don't know if Trump's gonna be there or not.
What debate?
There was a debate last night.
I didn't know there was a debate.
I saw the Trump press conference this morning where Ben Carson and there was a debate last night.
Really?
Well, whatever happened in a debate last night, it's old news because Carson endorsed Trump today, and that was all over TV for an hour.
Again, Trump hijacks cable news for yet another hour after the debate last night with the Carson endorsement today.
Now there are a lot of people, folks.
It's it's you can't win for losing if you're these guys.
The debate last night was civil, and the media was disappointed.
They were unhappy.
They expected Cruz and Rubio to go for broke, and maybe even Kasich, although I don't know what kind of expectations there were.
But this was it for Rubio.
You gotta go for broke, you gotta go in there and you practically do everything but but but but fisticuffs.
And nothing happened.
It was perhaps one of the most substantive debates yet.
And it did not surprise me at all.
If your crews, and if you're Rubio and you have any ability to look at recent history, you have to understand one thing.
Going after Trump or going after his supporters.
Trying to tell his supporters they're making a mistake is not the way to do this.
Hello, Mitt Romney.
How did that work out for him?
Mitt Romney goes on a nationwide speech saying that Trump is this or that reprobate here, reprobate over there is a lying skunk.
He doesn't know what he's talking about.
He has no experience.
He's uh he's a rascal, he's he's coarse, he's not presidential.
What happened with that?
Then Ted Cruz, unfortunately, said something that he's walking back about Trump voters being low information.
I know what he was trying to say, and and it it is but he's walking it back.
We've had Rubio try his turn at going after Trump and Trump voters in a couple of debates.
How did that work out for him?
It didn't.
National Review with a full issue devoted to warning people about Trump.
Anyhow, you people supporting Trump, you're making a huge mistake, and you better change your mind.
You better change your mind now.
Trump's stupid, he doesn't know anything, and he's worse than somebody doesn't know anything because he thinks he knows everything.
It's a risk the country can't afford.
They've thrown everything, and it hasn't done anything.
But maybe solidify Trump's support.
I I just I I I think they realized last night that uh during the day yesterday before last night that you don't take Trump's votes away by criticizing him.
The media desperately wanted this.
The media wanted the fight after all of this, you know, and you can't win with them.
When they get the fight, when you get the small hands and get all that stuff, they whine and moan about how unpresidential it is, and what a disappointment it is.
And then we get a solid substantive debate.
Well, I have to tell you, I think even Kasich made a couple of good points last night.
I think Kasich made his case or Postmaster General, unlike I have ever heard anybody do it.
Rubio was on fire.
You know, I watched Rubio last night.
I'm thinking, man, if you would have just not gotten sucked into that gang eight, because you're never going to live that down.
But that performance of Rubio's last night was one of his best.
Ted Cruz was on fire and once again demonstrated that there isn't anybody with a more commanding presence and knowledge of the issues and particularly the things that need to be fixed, the directions that need to be changed, the reasons this country's in trouble was just on fire.
And of course, Trump got his accolades because he apparently, according to Lunt's focus group afterward, appeared presidential.
Uh didn't insult anybody, didn't attack anybody.
So when you look at all four performances, it was solid.
I thought last night was a tremendous example of the potential of the of the Republican Party.
And even Trump with his open, his opening uh his opening remarks about, you know, to the Republican established or whoever, you know, be open to what's happening here.
Now I want to address that.
Because I've got three stories here, and I don't know what to think about them.
And I need your help.
Let me give you the headlines of these three stories.
Ohio's dirty little secret, blue-collar Democrats for Trump.
If Donald Trump wins the Republican primary nomination, is passed in the White House will run through Canton, Ohio, working class city with a knack for picking presidents.
No Republican has ever won the White House without Ohio.
And nowhere better reflects the challenges and opportunities Trump faces than Canton, a once booming industrial city.
It's where the pro football hall of fame is.
And they go on and talk about how there is already a shift that could end up being massive of Democrats for Trump.
And then from CBS Pittsburgh, 46,000 Pennsylvania Democrats become Republicans due to Trump.
Nearly 46,000 Pennsylvania Democrats have switched to Republicans since the beginning of the year.
According to Penn Live, some experts attribute the mass exodus to the Trumpster.
There's even a title for the movement.
It's called Ditch and Switch.
And it calls for lifelong Democrats to abandon the party, register Republican, and help ensure Trump's place in the general election.
What does this sound like to you?
Does this not sound like an Operation Chaos?
So here's Ohio.
Here's Pennsylvania, but wait, we aren't through.
Meet some of Chicago's Trump Democrats.
With early voting closing in Chicago in just two days.
Monitors note a surprising trend.
Donald Trump showing some traction among Democrats just west of Midway Airport in the bungalow belt dominated by Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan.
Some Democrats are deflecting to Donald Trump.
Retired city plumber Tom Izzo of the Plumbers Crack Union.
Says right here, I'm a Donald Trump voter.
So many Americans are out of a job, but we got all these illegals working here.
Something's got to happen, said Izo.
ISO Represents a bit of a trend.
In 2008, just 6% of Chicago primary voters selected Republican ballots.
This year it's up to 10%, and that's not far away from the 13% back in 1980.
The year Rinaldus Magnus attracted so-called blue-collar Democrat voters, so Reagan Democrats.
So let's.
What do we have here?
We have massive shift, Democrat to Republican Ohio, attributed to Trump.
Forty-six thousand Democrats have re-registered Republican in Pennsylvania to vote for Trump.
And there's even a name for the movement called Ditch and Switch.
In Chicago now, we are being told that massive numbers of Democrats are switching to Republican to vote for Trump.
Now, what's going on here?
You think this is legit?
Look at these three states.
Pennsylvania.
Illinois.
If it's happening in Chicago, it's happening throughout state.
Chicago is Illinois versus MISA.
Rust belt states, traditionally Democrat states other than Ohio, which is always up for grabs.
Are we witnessing a massive Democrat sponsored operation chaos?
Or is this for real?
Well, hang on, because there's one more story here.
And the source is this guy named Mook, who runs a Hillary campaign.
This story's in the Washington Examiner from Paul Bedard.
The headline, Mook.
That's the last name of Hillary's campaign guy.
Mook warns of defeat in Ohio, Illinois, and Missouri by Bernie Sanders.
That's my printer back there, as somebody thinks I should be saying something I haven't said yet.
Certainly what happens.
You see what it is.
Oh, it's a new soundbite from the Cookster.
Uh it's it's it's uh just happened on CNN.
Rubio Communications Director says that Rubio supporters should vote Kasich in Ohio.
We'll get to that.
That would be sound by 34.
Well, I'm saying, folks, we've got more stuff here than I can possibly squeeze in, but I'm gonna try here.
Paul Bidard, Washington Examiner, Hillary Clinton's campaign manager.
This guy, uh, this guy Mook.
What is his first name?
Do they ever put his first name in a story?
What is this?
You know his name first name.
Robbie.
Okay, Robbie Mook, okay.
Hillary Clinton's campaign manager citing Senator Bernie Sanders' surprise victory in Michigan this week after outspending her there.
Robbie Mook warning supporters it could happen again Tuesday in Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois.
Mook says that uh Bernie outraised us by 12 million dollars in February, then outspent us on TV in Michigan.
With the additional money they raised this week, Bernie could outspend us in states like Ohio, Missouri, Illinois.
This is an ominous warning from MOOC.
Mook has reason to be concerned, new scientific prediction of the race.
This is not a poll.
This is one of these newfangled political scientist guys who factors in all kinds of things.
Past history.
Well, I'm sorry, there's only one kind of history.
He factors in history, he factors in demographics, economics, unemployment numbers, matches it against political performances, and comes up with a projection that is not based on polling data.
This new scientific prediction of the Hillary Crazy Bernie race comes from the University of Virginia Center for Politics.
It shows Clinton losing Illinois and Ohio by a hair.
A crazy Bernie win would be huge news and give him more momentum, though it would remain difficult for him to catch Clinton and delegates.
See, that's the thing.
It doesn't matter how many of these states Crazy Bernie wins, she's going to get all the delegates, or a majority of them.
But she's losing if this happens.
She'd be outraised.
Now, is this real?
How much of this is real?
That's the Ohio.
Illinois.
Pennsylvania, massive Democrats re-registering Republican because of Trump.
In Illinois, massive numbers of Democrats defecting Hillary for Crazy Bernie.
Missouri and Ohio, the same thing.
Based on the race and the region model, according to this scientific projection, we can predict that Hillary Clinton will win three states, Bernie Sanders will win two states on March 15th.
Well, then what's the big deal here?
The big deal is that MOOC is out there saying, no, no, no, no, we're on target to lose these by a hair.
Now with the Clinton campaign, you have to, you have to factor in lying.
You have to factor in psychological lying, trying to scare Hillary supporters into thinking that they've got to really donate.
They've got to really show up because Crazy Bernie is breathing down their necks and so forth.
At any rate, it's a lot to sort out.
It's a lot to determine.
The reason, by the way, that I ask if this stuff going on, Republicans switching to Trump, or Democrats switching to Trump, Republican.
Operation Chaos, not ego related, folks.
They they were so the Democrats in 2008 were so disoriented and discombobulated by Operation Chaos.
They were it they there were a couple movies in which it was featured as something that almost did them in.
There was a I'd a march movie was one of them with George Clooney.
And it was actually a movie in three parts, and the first third of the movie was about the panic related to Operation Chaos.
They genuinely were frightened of it.
So it's not out of the realm.
They could be running their own stealth version of Operation Chaos.
Well, you're frowning in there.
You think it's too big for this to What do you mean?
Oh, come on, news get out.
What news?
Who would find this and report it?
All MOOC and these guys have to do is keep it on the QT, tell a reporter buddies keep it on the QT.
I see your point.
It's too big.
There are too many people switching to keep this secret if it's an organized effort.
But it's still who are we talking about?
Anyway, Ashley Banfield.
What do you mean there aren't any Rush Limbaughs on the left?
A whole doesn't matter.
They already have.
They already have the blueprint for it.
Already gave them that.
What do you mean they're in the really?
They don't need anybody to come up with the idea.
That's already been done.
Oh, they what do you mean no Rush Limbaugh?
But you're thinking they got no right talk.
Radio host implemented.
They own every one of these party organizations.
They can implement this at the state level in a clandestine stealth way in ways nobody would ever hear about.
You don't need to do it on the radio.
You don't need to do that in the media.
Anyway, Ashley Banfield, an infobabe anchorette at CNN, is complaining on CNN that Donald Trump has hijacked her family.
You know, this is the kind of stuff that grates on me.
Just release some CNN.
Why daylight saving time can be bad for your health?
Well, if that's true, then you should never change time zones.
Changing time zones could be bad for your health.
You should never travel.
You should never fly.
You should never go more than one or two time zones.
This is absurd, but this is how they create daily health crises and get people believing a bunch of conkamami bull.
And then people, yeah, you know what?
It does.
It takes me like three days to adjust after we move the clocks forward.
I might have something seriously wrong with me.
Just go to bed earlier for crying out loud.
No rest, it's related to the circadian rhythms of the sunrise and the sunset, and we're screwing with nature.
No, we're not.
We're screwing with time.
Nature isn't changing.
We adapt.
This is all absurd.
Anyway, folks.
Ashley Banfield is an infobabe anchorette at CNN.
She was interviewing on the air.
This actor Michael Kelly plays Doug Stamper on House of Cards.
Doug Stamper, totally in the tank for Hillary Clinton, hates Donald Trump.
Ashley Banfield said.
I have to be honest with you.
I just had a parent teacher conference yesterday.
My fifth grade son's teacher said that he's calling other kids a name.
My son was called to school, Michael.
It's Ashley Banfield to you.
I was called to school, Michael, for a parent teacher meeting because my son's misbehaving.
Kelly said, Well, what's it?
He's running around calling everybody a loser.
She said, We have our TV at home on all the time, and Trump's on television all the time.
She is upset that Donald Trump has hijacked her family.
She's worried.
What a terrible thing.
In a brave new world where everybody's a winner, calling somebody a loser is like hate speech, but she's lost control of her family.
She tells this guy on TV, Donald Trump's hijacked my family.
My fifth grade sons running around calling everybody loser.
I'm sorry, folks.
It was difficult to stifle the laughter.
It's open line Friday.
Rush Limbaugh behind the golden EIB microphone executing a signed host duties flawlessly.
Let me grab this phone call real quick.
We've got a guy from Dexter, Michigan, named Tom.
It's a great, great question.
And I've I've I've been meaning to mention this some time ago, not recently, but it's a good reminder.
Tom High, glad you called and welcome to the program, sir.
Well, it's great to be with you again.
Fellow author Diddle.
Thank you, sir.
Well, it's start off.
I'm reading this book by uh Nolan Finley, who's the conservative editor of Detroit News, and he's the lead column in this collection of columns is uh called The Little Red Hen.
And it's about the importance of conservative uh fables and stories for young children.
So they should be reading Little Red Hen and The Little Engine They Could and not Rainbow Fish.
Right.
Right.
You know that kind of thing.
And I see your the Rush Revere series is the next logical extension for those readers, you know, as they move out of the books that are being read to and actually can read themselves and something up a little more substance.
So now you've got four of these books in this series out.
I assume a fifth one is coming.
Has the New York Times bestsellers done to you what they did to Harry Potter.
Exactly.
Right.
What the because there are so many, because all four of them would have been on the list.
What the New York Times is combines them in what's called a series now and doesn't report on individual sales.
Now they didn't originate with my books, they did originate with Harry Potter.
When Harry Potter books were number one through five, they said, we can't have this.
And so they lumped them all into a series so that only one slot in the top ten could be taken up.
In the case of Harry Potter, it'd be Harry Potter in my case, Rush Revere.
And so the accurate portrayal of the strength of each book individually was never represented unless I'd come here and talk about it, which of course can be off-putting because it's seen by some as braggadocious and others as self-promoting.
But I've I've mentioned that a couple of times, but not prominently, because I also don't want people to think that I'm I'm I'm making an excuse for anything, because I'm not.
I mean, it's incredible the number of copies these books sell, but uh, and we know it, obviously.
But uh, yes, you're you're you're exactly right.
It's and it was a it was a policy decision by the New York Times.
And in all honesty, it had nothing to do with me.
They created his policy long before we even started the Rush Revere series.
But I appreciate that's very spot on observant of you, Tom, in Dexter, Michigan, and I appreciate it.
Um there was also last night, ladies and gentlemen, because there were questions at the debate, and then there were uh discussions and analysis after the debate about violence at Trump rallies.
Oh, oh, oh, speaking of which, this back to this uh massive switch of voters in Pennsylvania, ditch and switch is the name of this so-called organic movement of so-called the so far 46,000 Pennsylvania Democrats registering as Republicans.
There's a name for the movement, it's called Ditch and Switch.
And of course, I asked the question is this real?
Is this an is this a stealth Democrat operation chaos, or is it genuine?
Because it's it's happening in Pennsylvania, it's happening in Ohio, it's happening in Illinois.
And of course, it's happening elsewhere, but these are now people are actually counting it and categorizing it.
Everybody knows that Trump is attracting white working class Democrats, independents, moderates, and so forth.
What turns out, you know those two black babes that do the funny videos for Trump, Diamond and Silk are their names.
Well, it turns out, and I don't know if this is the same thing, but it turns out back on September 28th of 2015, they created a website called Ditch and Switch Now.
And the purpose of it is to vote for Donald Trump in the primaries.
And again, that's from Diamond and Silk, these uh these two hilarious black women who do the videos for Trump, they announced that there was a website, Ditch and Switchnow.com, and the purpose was to switch to Republican vote for Donald Trump at the primaries.
Obviously, it would be targeted at Democrats and African Americans because that's who these two babes are.
Now, I don't know if it's the same thing.
It would be coincidental if not, that these two babes come up with a website in an organization called Ditch and Switch, and then this 46,000 number of Democrats switching to Republicans in Pennsylvania has a name, and the name is Ditch and Switch.
So if my suspicions have any credence, we would then have to assume or conclude that these two black babes doing the videos for Trump are actually Diamond and Silk, we'd have to conclude that they are stealth Democrats, and that they have been at this since September, running an Operation Chaos.
Now note also that the Ditch and Switch movement, Ditch and Switch website, is actually aimed at primaries.
Not to say it wouldn't bleed over to the general election.
But I was able to find that.
So there is a connection, Ditch and Switch, the name of Pennsylvania of Democrats registering as Republicans to a website set up by Diamond and Silk, the uh these if you've not seen one of these videos, they're hilarious.
Uh and these videos, they cropped up after the first Fox News debate, I think.
They were just hilarious.
They're obviously pro-Trump.
They've done a number of these videos, uh, promoting Ditch and Switch and promoting Trump.
And the New York Times did a story on them back on January 6th.
Supporters seek to persuade Democrats of Ditch and Switch for Donald Trump.
So it appears legit in this instance, but I know that there are a lot of people who think, nah no, there's too much of this going on.
And we've had Operation Chaos of Democrats were afraid of it, might be running their own version, so we'll follow it and play it out.
Now the violence at Trump rallies, here again, you know, I watch coverage of this, and I watched media people wring their hands and other people and furrowed brows and get panned expressions on their faces, and lament what's happening to our culture, the coarseness and the incivility and so forth.
And Trump supporters routinely punching protesters in the face at Trump rallies, and they ask Trump about it, and in some cases he denies it.
In other cases, they accuse him of encouraging it, such as a protester will erupt at a Trump rally and Trump will see it, throw the guy out.
You have to punch a guy in the face.
I'm gonna punch the guy, throw him out.
And then a couple days ago, a Trump protester was actually punched in the face by an elderly Trump supporter.
And so last night, after the debate, much of the analysis Focused on how horrible this is and why is it happening?
And nobody, I mean, some people got close to getting it right, but nobody I thought zeroed in on it.
And I it's it's another example, I think.
I don't want to make too big a deal of this, but with all these people trying to understand what's going on with Trump, it isn't that hard if you would just listen.
And I, in explaining this, do not misunderstand.
I am not attempting to validate or to justify it.
But there's so many people that seem curious and don't understand it.
The first thing to say about this is the left thinks they own the public protest.
Whenever there are right wingers that protest anywhere or anything at Democrat or left wing events, they are not held up as role models.
They are not admired.
They are not called paragons of our democracy.
We don't hear virtuous things about them, like they're speaking truth to power, or they're practicing a time honored art of dissent.
Not when there are Republicans that go to Democrat events when it happens, protest, they are routinely savaged.
They are insulted.
And if the Democrats remember this at a Tea Party rally.
A bunch of union guys actually beat up an African American Tea Party protester, and nobody in the media was upset about that.
You could hardly get them to talk about it.
So that's the first thing.
The protest.
The public protest, the left thinks it's theirs.
They own it, and only when they do it is it legitimate.
Well, in this case, it's legitimate because Trump is running as a Republican, and here are all these protesters out there protesting Trump, and they expect everybody to stop what they're doing and let the protesters take over the event.
If that doesn't happen, there isn't any democracy at a Trump rally.
If the Trump people don't stop, if Trump doesn't stop, make way for these protesters to disrupt things, then the Trump people are going to get blamed for it.
Trump himself is going to get blamed for it because the protesters are heroes and heroines and so forth, because that's the way the left looks at them.
Well, at a Trump rally, they're not tolerated.
You want to try to figure out why?
They're not tolerant.
Trump supporters and Trump himself are not going to lay down and let these people take over their events.
They're not going to bend over and grab the ankles or whatever you're not going to part the way and let the protesters march around and express their grievance.
The media is going to demand that happen because these are honorable protesters.
They're protesting a Republican, Donald Trump.
They're protesting a heathen.
They're protesting somebody that looks like Mussolini.
They're protesting somebody to drive visor comparing to Hitler, blah, you know, the drill.
But the people at the Trump rallies, they're not going to tolerate a minute of it.
And you know why?
Because they're sick of it for years.
They're sick of what they see protesters getting away, getting away with in public in various cities in this country.
They're sick and tired of what protesters did in Ferguson, for example.
They're sick and tired of what they saw happen on the campus at Mizzou.
They're sick and tired of what they see happening in places like Baltimore.
And they see everybody backing down.
They see everybody part, they see the protesters taking over and ruining private property, personally and physically attacking people.
They see them attacking America as founded.
And that when they get together, all these people, this is pent up frustration.
This is pent up resentment that nobody fights back against these people.
It's pent up frustration that everybody's told to let them speak.
Let them protest.
This is America.
This is dissent.
This is how we founded ourselves on dissent.
And they're fed up with it because the protesters rule the roost, have for a long time, get away with whatever destruction.
They can set fires.
They can blow up and destroy buildings, and nobody condemns it.
They condemn the place where it's happening and almost justify.
I'm talking about the media.
They almost justify protesters.
They justify their actions.
They justify what they do.
And then they go ask the victims of protest marches, what did you do to make these people so mad?
So when they get together at a Trump rally, and these protesters infiltrate that, they're not going to put up with it.
That's what's going on.
It's not complicated.
You may not like it.
You may think it's boorish.
You may think it's uncalled for, but that's the explanation for it.
In part, there are obvious reasons for it, additional too, but that's a big part of it.
But if you don't see that, you're not going to see much else of why people support Trump.
Anyway, I have to take a break.
Sit tight.
Open line Friday continues in a moment.
No, no, no, that's a different thing.
The uh I'm talking about the rally, I guess it was in North Carolina where the uh the old Trump guy punched the guy in the face.
I'm not, I'm not just I'm just telling you, I understand why this is happening.
You know, people that live in Washington, it's a protected enclave, folks, but there aren't any protests in Washington.
I mean, you got people at Lafayette Park across in the White House, but it's it's it's not the people in the media, they never encounter, they never have to live through things like what happened in Ferguson, like what goes on in a campus of Mizzou.
The people a lot of people live in Washington did those kinds of protests back in the 60s and so forth, but they don't dare subject themselves to them now.
My only point is they're so insulated that they see these protests on TV and they see them as generic things.
They don't they they in no way can relate to them.
They have no way of empathizing and understanding the raw emotion that peaceful people in these communities have for what's being done in the name of dissent, in the name of attacking Republicans, in the name of supposed racism.
They're fed up with it.
They are fed up with being pointed at as the reason things are not going right when the reasons are in Washington and in the White House.
They're fed up with being called all these names.
So they get together at their Trump rallies, and if these people infiltrate, they're not going to be tolerated.
It's just that simple.
Meanwhile, you watch these protests from afar, you watch them on TV and think it's cute, and it's great news, it's part of democracy, but you have no personal connection to it.
You're never going to understand this.
And you're never going to understand any any movement like this.
Populist, nationalist, even conservative.
You're not going to understand it.
And they don't.
But there's something else that happened, and this is not good, and this is going to be a problem.
And that is her name is Michelle Fields, and she is a Trump Bart reitbart reporterette.
And she was covering the Trump uh press conference Tuesday night after the uh after the primaries that was held up in Jupiter here at the Trump golf course up there in the uh in the members' clubhouse.
And when it was over, and Trump was making his way off stage, she was trying to get close enough to Trump to ask him a question.
And the next thing she knew, she was grabbed very tightly on her arm, so much so that she was bruised.
She was nearly thrown to the floor and told to essentially be quiet, no questions, get out of the way.
Trump is leaving, what have you.
And she claims that it was Trump's campaign manager who did it, a guy named Cory Lewandowski.
There are witnesses.
There's audio.
There's video.
She's got the bruises on her arms.
Trump was asked about it after the debate last night.
He thinks it's all made up.
He didn't see it.
He was long gone.
At least his back was to the event when it happened.
It happened after he'd walked by.
And it may well be that the people involved have not told him what really happened, that they're saying, nah, she making it up.
She's exaggerating, it didn't happen, or it did happen, but it wasn't Cory Lewandowski that did it, or what have you.
But I mean, there's all kinds of witnesses and evidence here.
There's people were running audio tape of it.
There's some video, I think.
She's got the bruises on her arms.
Politico has run, I think the audio and the transcript of it.
So it happened.
And Trump last night said that he thinks it's being made up because that's obviously what his people are telling him.
Now, Michelle Fields of Breitbart has filed a formal criminal complaint against Lewandowski, alleging that he forcefully grabbed her and nearly threw her to the floor.
So that's not going to go away.
That's a different thing.
Ben Carson endorsed Donald Trump today despite some of the deeply insulting things Trump has said about Carson.
Carson talked about that.
We'll have audio sound bites.
