Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
We have a couple of 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.
Oh man, and what a day this is going to 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.
Telephone number 800-282-2882 if you want to be on the program and the email address LRushbo at EIBnet.com.
Open Line Friday means rank amateur callers can talk about whatever they want to talk about.
That's the career is.
Lovable rank amateur callers.
Okay, the two endorsements.
National Review has officially endorsed Ted Cruz this morning.
And their piece, their editorial endorsement is posted at National Review Online, or soon will be.
I think it's out now.
And I just got word that Phyllis Schlafly and Ed Martin, who is the president of the Eagle Forum, will endorse Donald Trump today at a noontime rally in St. Louis.
Now, I don't know if Trump's going to 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, there was a debate last night.
Really?
Well, whatever happened to 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.
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 got to go for Brooke.
You got to go in there and you practically do everything but fisticuffs.
And nothing happened.
It was perhaps one of the most substantive debates yet.
And it did not surprise me at all.
If you're Cruz, 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 a rascal.
He's coarse.
He's not presidential.
What happened with that?
And Ted Cruz, unfortunately, said something that he's walking back about Trump voters being low information.
I know what he was trying to say.
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 who 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 just, I think they realized last night that, or 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, you get all that stuff, they whine and moan about how unprecedented 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 of 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 lunch focus group afterward, appeared presidential, 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 Republican Party.
And even Trump with his open, his opening, his opening remarks about, you know, to the Republican establishment or whoever, you know, be open to what's happening here.
Now, I want to address that because I 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, his pass to 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?
Okay, 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 Izzo.
Izzo 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 to the Reagan Democrats.
So let's, what do we have here?
We have massive shift, Democrat to Republican Ohio, attributed to Trump.
46,000 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, Ohio, 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 is in the Washington Examiner from Paul Bedard.
The headline, MOOC, 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.
It's generally what happens.
You see what it is?
Oh, it's a new soundbite from the Cookster.
It just happened on CNN.
Rubio Communications Director says that Rubio supporters should vote Kasich in Ohio.
We'll get to that.
That would be somebody 34.
Well, I'm saying, folks, we've got more stuff here than I can possibly squeeze in, but I'm going to try here.
Paul Bedard, Washington Examiner, Hillary Clinton's campaign manager.
This guy, this guy, Mook.
What is his first name?
Do they ever put his first name in the story?
What is this?
You know his 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 Bernie outraised us by $12 million in February.
They announced Spent 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 Mook.
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 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's being 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 Mook 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 factor in lying.
You have to factor in psychological lying, trying to scare Hillary supporters and 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, are Democrats switching to Trump, Republican, Operation Chaos, not ego-related, folks.
They were so the Democrats in 2008 were so disoriented and discombobulated by Operation Chaos.
There were a couple movies in which it was featured as something that almost did them in.
There was an Ida March movie, it 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 Mook and these guys have to do is keep it on the QT, tell the 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?
It doesn't matter.
They already have the blueprint for it.
Already gave them that.
What do you mean they're in there?
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 to input.
You're thinking they got no talk radio host to implement it.
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.
It just released 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 can 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 cockamamie 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, I 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, Whoa, whoa, 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's 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 son's running around calling everybody a 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 his science 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 been meaning to mention this some time ago, not recently, but it's a good reminder.
Tom, hi, glad you called.
And welcome to the program, sir.
Well, it's great to be with you again.
Fellow author Dittos.
Thank you, sir.
Well, it's start off.
I'm reading this book by Nolan Finley, who's the conservative editor of Detroit News.
And the lead column in this collection of columns is called The Little Red Hen.
And it's about the importance of conservative fables and stories for young children.
So they should be reading Little Red Hen and The Little Engine That Could It, 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 the books that are being read to and actually can read themselves on something of a little more substance.
So now you've got four of these books in this series out, and I assume a n a fifth one is coming.
Has the New York Times bestseller list done to you what they did to Harry Potter?
Exactly.
Right.
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 didn't come here and talk about it, which, of course, could be off-putting because it's seen by some as braggadocious and others as self-promoting.
But I've mentioned that a couple of times, but not prominently, because I also don't want people to think that I'm making an excuse for anything because I'm not.
I mean, it's incredible the number of copies these books sell, and we know it, obviously.
But yes, you're exactly right.
And it was a policy decision by the New York Times.
And in all honesty, it had nothing to do with me.
They created this 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.
There was also last night, ladies and gentlemen, because there were questions at the debate, and then there were discussions and analysis after the debate, about violence at Trump rallies.
Oh, oh, oh.
Speaking of which, back to this massive switch of voters in Pennsylvania.
Ditch and Switch is the name of this so-called organic movement of so-called, 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 ask the question, is this real?
Is this a stealth Democrat Operation Chaos?
Or is it genuine?
Because 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 two hilarious black women who do the videos for Trump.
They announced that there was a website, DitchandSwitchNow.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 and 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.
If you've not seen one of these videos, they're hilarious.
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 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 to 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, no, no, there's too much of this going on.
And we've had Operation Chaos.
The Democrats were afraid of it and 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 watch media people wring their hands and other people and whine and furrowed brows and get pained 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.
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 don't have to punch the guy in the face.
I want to 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 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 are 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.
Now, when there are Republicans that go to Democrat events, when it happens, protests, 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 and 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 used to.
They'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 that drive visor comparing to Hitler while you're 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 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 borish.
You may think it's uncalled for, but that's the explanation for it.
In part, there are obvious reasons for it, additional two, 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.
I'm talking about the rally, I guess it was in North Carolina, where the old Trump guy punched the guy in the face.
I'm just telling you, I understand why this is happening.
You know, people 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 the White House, but it's not the people in the media, they never encountered, they never have to live through things like what happened in Ferguson, like what goes on in a campus in Mizzou.
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 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.
And 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 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, excuse me, Breitbart reporter.
And she was covering the Trump press conference Tuesday night after the primaries that was held up in Jupiter here at the Trump golf course up there in the members' clubhouse.
And when it was over and Trump was making his way offstage, 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 arms, 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 Corey 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, ah, she's making it up.
She's exaggerating.
It didn't happen.
It did happen, but it wasn't Corey 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.
