Time Text
And hi folks.
Great to be back with you.
Great to be here on the EIB Network.
And the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies, telephone number, if you want to be on the programs 800-282-2882, and the email address, Ilrushbo at EIBNet.com.
I just saw some caustic things.
I just perusing the internet.
And there was a story about how Trump has kicked Palin off the campaign, it looks like from just from a single tweet or a series of tweet.
Yeah, it looks like looks like Trump's gotten rid of Palin.
Obviously didn't know that Sarah Palin's husband has been involved in what's being called a serious accent.
Was it snow snowmobile accident in intensive care, so she's going wherever he is, and that Alaska, right, which would mean that she would have to leave the campaign.
The Trump uh tweet announced it didn't specify why.
So it made it look like uh Trump's throwing Sarah Palin to the curb.
I don't think that's the case, but uh tensions are high, and everybody's looking for any angle they could get.
Now I checked the email during the break, and there's some people, hey Rush, you keep saying Trump is innocent here.
Trump's just like Obama rush.
Trump's been out there telling his people, punch them in the face, get them out of here, kick them out of here, get rid of them.
I understand that.
But Trump is being creamed for that.
The drive-by media is all over, it's all part of trying to blame Trump for it.
And I I my only point is, and I I don't want to get caught up in his two wrongs, uh, don't make a right business.
I understand that.
But I do believe who started it, if if there were not protesters in Trump's rallies, Trump wouldn't be behaving the way he is.
But I'm just here to tell you, yeah, you can you can believe me or not.
But I'm here to tell you that Trump's behavior when his events are interrupted, is one of the reasons why his legion of supporters love him.
You might think it's crass, you might think it's crude, you might think it's dangerous, you might think it's insightful, that it would be better if Donald would politely ask them to leave, or if Donald wouldn't say anything, just send his security guys in there to escort them out.
And therefore nobody would know.
Donald should ignore the protest, not acknowledge it, shouldn't steer the media cameras to the protests, and instead quietly deal with it and so forth.
Well, that's not who he is.
He sees an opportunity to score points and and s uh further establish his identity with his crowd.
And I I don't know how to say this, uh, other than the way I've said it, and I'm don't don't also misunderstand any justification here.
I know it's sometimes tough to weed out or to weed through a tone of voice, but I'll just tell you, I'm I'm one of them.
I have been so livid over the years at what the left gets away with in these protest marches.
Starting back in the 60s, when I was uh teenager.
High school, first year of college, well, first semester because I didn't finish the second semester, but I was livid at it, and I have been livid at it ever since.
I have been more livid at the way Republicans don't deal with it.
And then I've been livid with it when it was happening in Ferguson, when it happens on college campuses, when it happens at any presidential campaign, the Republicans are raging or waging or any campaign when it happens in Baltimore.
This stuff ticks me off.
All this destruction and prop private property destruction being tolerated as some sort of free speech expression, or we're supposed to understand the rage, we're not to condemn it, we're to understand why their grievances exist and we're to understand that their grievances are legitimate, screw that.
As far as I'm concerned, I don't I don't know what it is that gives people the right to destroy people's private property.
I don't see where the Constitution becomes a suicide pact in that regard.
And I'm just here to tell you that there are a whole lot of people at these Trump rallies and people who support Trump who, when they see him reacting this way to people who are trying to disrupt, interrupt, and shut down his events.
He's not tolerant of it.
And he wants these people made an example of.
He wants them to thrown out so that others are dissuaded from trying it again.
Not that that's going to work with this crowd, because they're being paid to do this.
But his audience loves it, folks.
I'm just telling you, his supporters love it.
It's the kind of uh people associate with decisiveness, courage or what have you.
But it's more than anything, it's it's Trump showing he's not gonna take anything from anybody.
And so many people that support Trump are sick and tired of having to take it, having been told we have to take it, have leaders that take it and don't shut it down and react to it.
The protest march has been looked at, is seen by many on the right as a never-ending Democrat Party victory every time it happens.
They're sick and tired.
So Gabby Geffords gets shot out in Arizona.
They're sick and tired of protest marchers claiming it's Sarah Palin's fault, and nobody on the Republican side standing up and denouncing that.
Oh, yeah, because Sarah Palin somehow had a an a logo on her website with somebody in some crosshairs.
So that supposedly angered the guy out there, and he went nuts shooting people in the shopping center.
And it turns out the guy was a rabid leftist.
He'd never been to Sarah Palin's website.
Or there's a movie theater shooting.
And Brian Ross at ABC News immediately tries to find out whether the guy's a member of the Tea Party.
People are fed up with this.
They're fed up with being blamed, they're fed up with being impugned, they're fed up with being denigrated, lied about.
Accused of doing things they don't do, accused of thinking things they don't think, accused of being racist, bigots, sexist, homophobes when they're not.
So like much of everything else, here's a guy standing up to it and telling these people effectively to go to hell to get the hell out of here.
It's not a mystery to me.
It's not a mystery at all to me why people supporting Trump applaud that.
And when he tells people in his audience, man, I wish I'd punch him in the face.
I wish I'll even pay the legal fees.
Take them out, I'll pay the legal fees.
That's horrible.
Trump shouldn't say that.
It's horrible.
Well, he's being condemned for it.
It's not like he's being praised for that, other than by his own supporters.
But I mean, the drive-bys are all over him for it.
And because of that, they're trying to make it out to be his fault.
Because what they want to do at the end of the day is denigrate every Donald Trump supporter as a Neanderthal kook fringe idiot.
What have you?
And like every one of these things in the past, this is bought and paid for and brought to you by the radical left and the Democrat Party.
Do you know that Bill Ayers was even part of the rally in Chicago on Friday?
Friend of Obama's?
Yeah.
Big friend of Obama's Bill Ayers.
Reverend Wright would have been there, but he couldn't have caught a plane.
Get there in time, but he would have been there.
Certainly, people like him would have been there.
What do you think this stuff comes from?
Black Lives Matter.
Occupy Wall Street, you name it.
They're all bought and paid for organization.
Move on.org, paid for by Jordan Soros.
Let me grab a call or two before we have to break.
We'll start with Tom in Centerville, Ohio, who was at the Trump rally at the airport in Dayton.
Great to have you on the program, sir.
Hello.
Thank you, Rush.
First time caller, longtime listener.
It's an honor to be on your show.
Thank you very much, Tom.
Appreciate that.
Yeah, I was at the rally on Saturday in uh.
And I can tell you that these disruptors were organized.
They did their disruptions at timed intervals.
They didn't do it all at once.
They did it in a coordinated fashion.
They were orchestrated.
And they were all peacefully let out.
The security and the police did a really good job of escorting them out.
There was nothing but peacefulness from the Trump supporters.
And we were just there to attend the rally and uh and enjoy the uh coy clamor it's a good question how many how many uh how many protesters uh in Dayton on Saturday you say you were there how many of them got beat up by you and others in the Trump rally none of them got beat up I'd say there was probably about 20,000 of people there, maybe a total of like 25 of them got escorted out.
But I thought it was interesting that they got escorted out one at a time in sort of staged intervals.
So it was definitely, in my mind, and orchestrated.
Of course it is.
The fact that they're there is all you need to know that it's orchestrated.
A bunch of people that don't support Trump show up at a Trump rally.
Of course it's orchestrated.
I'm sure they've got a battle plan.
I'm sure their time deterrils are such when they all know what it probably like you say a hand signal is given by somebody as to when to go and you can always tell when it happens because Trump stops what he's doing and reacts to it.
Get of that of that throw him out man I'd love to punch him in the face punch him out I'll pay the legal bill but everything was fine until these people start disrupting things.
And by the way, they are not the harmless lovable little peaceful fuzzballs.
These are not people showing up hoping to be heard and protest and get their point of view out.
They're trying to shut these events down and they jostle people around they shove these are not nice people if I can just be as simplistic about it as possible.
They're mean, little, angry troglodytes.
These leftist protesters.
And they have only one purpose, and that's to shut down these events and disrupt them.
For whatever reason, they get their jollies or they don't want the event to go up.
They want to make it look like there are many more people opposed to whoever it is conducting the rally than there are supporters.
Anyway, I appreciate the call, Tom, very much.
Michael Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
on the program hi.
Good afternoon Mr. Limbaugh yesterday I was watching TV I saw Mr. Cruz come on and basically bring blame Trump for these protests taking place at the um at the rallies now to me I mean this is so-called constitutional lawyer here I mean I don't know how you see it but I see it as all the supporters of Mr. Trump's first amendment rights being violated.
The so-called constitutional lawyer should have solved that for him to take the side of the as you know agitators anarchists whatever you want to call them I mean to me that exposes Mr Mr Cruz as one of the you know Republican establishment guy.
No well no no no come on now come on do not take such a leap of all the crazy things you know evidence if you'd like it.
Michael do you really after everything is gone you think Ted Cruz is a secret member a secret handshake away from being a member of the establishment?
He's already got the handshake.
He's put the check in his pocket with Goldman Sachs.
Oh, come on.
That's Trump drivel that you ought to know is untrue.
That's just campaign rhetoric.
Goldman Sachs.
You've got to wise up out there.
You've got to know when Trump's making a joke and trying to rile you up and when he's serious.
He's not serious about that.
He's not serious about the loan business.
He wants you to believe it, I guess.
Look, Cruz came out.
He acknowledged where these protests come from.
started by leftists.
He knows that this is a Democrat radical way of life but I think true I think Cruz and Rubio they're in a Republican primary enemy right now their opponent Is Trump.
They'll get down to getting after Hillary or Bernie later on.
Right now they've got to get past Trump.
Rubio really laid in to uh Trump on this on Saturday morning.
To the to the point that Rubio got uh he looked really, really troubled by this.
He was asked, are you still gonna vote for the nominee?
You still gonna he was really pained with this because he he is of the belief that that uh that Trump is is coarsening our politics and coarsening the conversation and is uh not representing the uh better elements of our nature or what have you.
But uh Cruz got this right.
Uh I think the the initial temptation of uh, you know, look, there's some things that happened to Trump rallies.
I mean a Trump supporter did cold cock, uh uh a black lives matter guy, some 78-year-old Trump supporter in a cowboy hat.
Look, his cowboy boots were so pointed this guy could have kicked extrament in the corner with no problem whatsoever.
And this guy then turns to the camera, this guy shows up next time, we're gonna take him out.
Well, yeah, I mean, you're gonna have Republicans speak out against that kind of thing.
It's it's it's called uh trying to gain advantage, but at the end of the day, True Cruz knows where this all comes from, and he said so, and we will be back.
Don't go away.
Back we are on the cutting edge of societal evolution, telephone numbers 800 and 282, 2882.
Here's uh here's John in Cleveland.
He was at the Cleveland Trump rally.
How are you doing, sir?
I'm doing great, Raj.
Thanks for taking my call.
You just uh fulfilled the wish on my bucket list.
Thanks.
You bet, sir.
Great to have you here.
Hey, I just want to call.
Uh we went to the uh Trump rally in Cleveland at the IX Center.
I took my son, a few of his friends, and he met about six more kids there.
We had a blast.
Every time he said get them out, uh the place roared.
Um there wasn't any violence, there was nothing.
The So you you you didn't beat up any Trump's protesters, you didn't see it happen.
No, the kids were uh, you know, they're all uh seniors, they're about 17, 18, so they grabbed signs and they were shouting USA next to the protesters.
That's about as heated as it got.
But they had a blast.
But I gotta tell you, the most impressive thing they got out of it.
I mean, they love the whole thing, but the most impressive thing they got out of it was watching a guy fly away in a jet that he paid for with his own money.
I mean, everybody in the parking lot was looking like, wow, you know, success.
So I don't know how to make it.
Let me tell you, it's interesting you say that because I where was the one last there was a Trump rally in not Boca.
I forget where it was, but but I I I saw the link to it, and I I tuned in to it early.
It was on YouTube, and there was just a shot of the stage looking from inside the hangar out where the Trump plane would eventually be parked, where it was at the rally in in Dayton.
And I watched, I wanted to see what happened when that plane taxied in.
I wanted to see if the camera would capture any crowd reaction.
And I just wanted to say, I wanted to try to put myself in.
Imagine the feeling, what you just said.
Here's a giant 757 with this guy's name on it, and it comes rolling in.
And the crowd went nuts.
It was impressive, plane taxis in, and you know it's loud, even at taxi, it's it's it's pretty loud, and it's coming it it roars in and it pulls up right next to the hangar.
And I wanted to see how they because I know everything is staged, and everything is done to make the best impression.
So I wanted to see who got off first, who they were, whether it seemed to be an orderly procession down or just first person off, and it was f the first people obviously were Secret Service and Security.
And they stood at the top of the stairs and they surveyed, they were talking into their in their their watches or whatever they were talking into their lapel microphones, surveying the scene.
It looked big.
It looked presidential.
And then these guys one by one descend the stairs, and there's maybe seven or eight of them, and they all look like security people in their dark suits and ties with the earpieces.
And then here comes Trump.
And he starts waving, deplaning that plane, waving, and he just gets off of the plane, doesn't have wal far to walk, gets to the podium and the and the places is going nuts.
And you know, the whole, it it's it's a the entirety of the whole scene is what's designed to make an impression.
Now, John, I want to make sure I heard you correctly.
You said your two kids with you, 17 and 18.
The thing that really jazzed them was when it was over and that plane leaves, the fact that Trump paid for that plane with his own money is what they were talking about.
Oh, yeah.
Uh it was it was weird.
We're we're all stuck in the parking lot there because there's only a couple lanes out, and it was packed.
So when Trump's plane started going toward the uh runway, uh taking a file uh whatever you call it when he's going to taxi.
Right.
Anyway, everybody in the whole parking lot stops and they're all looking at this big plane.
It was i it's hard to describe, but there was just heads all over the place.
But what's the big deal?
What's the big deal to your kids about the fact that he paid for?
How'd they even know that?
Oh, well, it's got his name on it, and you know, what yeah, you know the taxpayers didn't buy it for him, so there you go.
So they were impressed that he had enough money to buy it himself or the what's the deal with it?
Oh, yeah, they're uh that that's what I say, Rush.
I mean, these kids are all seventeen and eighteen.
I went with my son and and uh a bunch of his friends from high school, but they're all really impressed with his success.
And I I despite all the things the media's they want it.
They want it and they they they think they can get it.
I appreciate your call, John.
Thanks.
Half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair.
I am Rush Limbaugh, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Let's review.
So that we keep uh things in perspective and and focused here.
In Florida, um CBS News battleground tracker polls.
Here we go, Florida Trump at 44, Cruz 24, Rubio 21.
In the CBS poll, Rubio is in third place in Florida.
However, Rubio people in Florida say there's a whole bunch of early voting is going on down here.
1.1 million early votes, and we could get the lion's share of those, so don't rule us out here yet.
In Ohio, there are two different polls, a Quinnipiac and a Monmouth poll.
In one of the polls, Cruz, I'm sorry, Trump and uh and and Kasich are tied, and in another one, Kasich is up by six.
Both Trump and Cruz have made adjustments to their schedules and are doing events in Ohio today that were not originally planned.
Trump had an event planned for oh for uh uh Trump derailed down to Miami that he has canceled and instead going to Youngstown.
Cruz was going to spend a large part of the day in North Carolina, which very crazy, you know, North Carolina, Illinois, and Missouri are also big.
They're not getting talked about a lot.
But you keep an eye on Illinois and Missouri as the results uh pour in tomorrow, too, because Florida pretty much a known quantity of Ohio.
I'll tell you why Ohio is the focus.
And I'll tell you why, Cruz and Trump are going back there.
They want Kasich out of the race.
Trump wants to win Ohio.
Trump thinks if he wins Ohio and wins Florida, that that is for all intents and purposes it.
That he can create a narrative that it's over.
It's all over but the shot.
That nobody else has a prayer of getting anywhere near 1237.
So he wants Kasich out.
Cruz wants Kasich out for a different reason.
If Kasich stays see, Kasich, no matter he wins Ohio or loses it, is mathematically eliminated.
And I realize there are a lot of you in Ohio who like your governor.
I realize many of you in Ohio like Kasich.
But the fact of the matter is that if he wins or loses, he's mathematically eliminated, particularly if he loses.
But I mean, either way, it's uh it's history.
But if he wins, he's gonna stay in.
If he wins, he's going to stay in because he wants a contested convention.
He doesn't want anybody getting to 1237 before they get to Cleveland and the convention, because he wants to be able to benefit from a contested convention is maybe a uh oh what would you a fusion candidate, uh somebody that they they uh they go to when uh none of the other two can put together a majority.
Whatever.
It's a long shot.
But and plus just screwing things up.
If he could do that, feather in his cap, history books, all that, he would uh he'd love to do it.
Cruz wants him out because as far as the Cruz campaign's concerned, their biggest challenge.
And by the way, Cruz won a couple other primaries over the week, and he won Wyoming, got nine delegates, Trump got one, and there was one other place, Colorado, wasn't it, Colorado.
They they were both uh congressional delegate, the congressional district primaries, which is why, and they're they were small, they weren't covered.
Anyway, uh Cruz won both of them.
So he's creeping up, he's like 90 delegates behind Trump.
And if the big the biggest objective the Cruise campaign has is fighting the narrative that it's over.
This is going to be a very big week for the Cruz campaign, given that perception is reality in politics.
The Trump people are going to be doing everything they can to suggest it's over.
Either way, if Trump wins only Ohio of Ohio, or wins only Florida, Florida and Ohio.
There remember there's four or five states tomorrow, but the big ones that everybody's talking about are Florida and Ohio.
So Trump wins Florida, he's gonna be trying to make the case and his allies in the media that it's all over, but the shout.
If Trump wins both, which is what Cruz wants, by the way, this is the key.
Cruz needs Trump to win both to get rid of Kasich.
That solidifies all of the anti-Trump support around Cruz.
Sets up a two-man race.
The Cruz people really believe that they can win a plurality of delegates in a two-man race if Kasich gets out.
But Kasich has to lose Ohio.
And that means Trump has to win it because there's no way Cruz is going to.
So the biggest thing the Cruz people have to fight the perception that it's over, which will be the reporting starting late Tuesday night and all day into Wednesday.
So this is going to be a big week for them to get through.
Because it will not be over.
But everybody on the Trump side and and uh a lot of other media will be trying to say that it is.
So it's uh it's it's interesting the way things are shaping up here, and with both Trump and Cruz rescheduling events to go into Ohio.
They both they both have the same interest there.
Kasich losing.
It's that's right, that's right.
Marco won was Wyoming.
It was well, I mean no, no, I mentioned Wyoming.
What's the second one?
Oh, that's right.
That's where Marco, oh yeah, Marco swept Washington, D.C. Well, that's what the establishment guys are supposed to do well in Washington.
I'm just kidding.
You know, I it's it's a shame.
I I said this Friday.
It's a shame about Rubio.
If it weren't for that gang eight, he would be perceived and looked at entirely differently.
That gang of eight thing did so much dam.
I mean, justifiably, but nevertheless, it did so much damage.
I've been working on my Trump impersonation too.
Not so much the voice, although I'm doing that too, but I've I've been studying these Trump rallies.
It's fascinating.
It's um it's just it's total stream of consciousness.
Whatever pops into his mind.
He stops whatever he's saying and says whatever he thinks and then goes back.
Yeah, he's he did a deep thinker.
He says he's a deep thinker.
But the the rallies and his uh his his speech patterns uh and he did three yesterday, three in one day, three different states.
He did uh Florida, Ohio, and I believe yeah, Bloomington, Illinois.
Bloomington, Illinois, yeah, he doesn't need much sleep, he says.
But it's uh the problem with doing my Trump appersonation is that Trump fans are gonna be thinking I'm ripping him.
And criticism which I won't be.
Impersonations are actually a uh uh a flattering thing.
But I'm not ready to unveil it yet, but I have been working on it.
I close the doors at home so nobody can hear me, and I just start I start rehearsing.
I start trying uh to speak as Trump does on on at one of these rallies.
And I'm getting close.
And even even maybe down even to the voice patterns and the repetitions.
Let's see.
Let me take one more call, and then we're gonna go back to the uh to the audio sound bites, and we're not through.
These are the audio sound bites have to do with who's responsible for the violence.
Here's Jason in Brooklyn.
Jason, glad you called.
It's great to have you on the EIB network a little bit.
Thank you very much, Russia.
I'm big a big apple dittoes from uh from from uh New York City.
Thank you.
Let me try and make the host look good and try and answer the question.
Why now?
Right?
I did ask that qu why is the left going after Trump now?
We're still.
They are scared.
They are terrified of Hillary as a nominee.
Because they know they're in trouble.
They know Hillary may be indicted.
Well no.
Jason, what wait one minute.
The the the conventional wisdom, and I just ran into a bunch of it this morning doing show prep.
It's amazing.
The conventional wisdom is that if Trump is the nominee, she wins by 30 points, that we can't stop her.
That it's Gary that Trump is being the worst thing.
I can't tell you how many places I read that today.
Okay, well, you know what?
That's a that that's n I don't believe that's true.
Because what has Trump been saying?
I'm getting Democrats, I'm getting independents, I'm getting the people who the Republican establishment want me to get.
So why is it happening now?
Because they're scared.
Come.
It's obvious.
It's right there in front of your face.
Simple.
So they're afraid that Hillary might be indicted, they're afraid that Trump is stealing Democrat votes, they're afraid Trump is getting all this good press.
They look at a Hillary event and it's lifeless and dull, and they're frightened.
Yes, absolutely.
All right, it could be.
It could be.
I there's gotta be an answer for it.
There's gotta be an answer, other than it's what they do.
I mean, and that is part of the answer.
It is what they do.
It's their folks, I'm not kidding you.
There's some people protest as a standard of living.
It is their way they earn their living.
They're bought and paid for, and they're constantly going on.
You just don't hear about it every day, but they're still rioting in places all over this country or protesting.
They're in Baltimore, they're in Ferguson, they're still out there, and they're doing their dirt little dirty work here and there, and they're waiting for the next public event to coalesce around.
And you saw them, they were they're in full full gear in Chicago.
And by the way, do you hear what this is our town?
You stay out of our town.
This is our town.
You stay away from our mayor, you stay away from I won't care he's destroying a town, it's our town.
We're destroying it because we don't like it the way it is.
He's in our pocket, you leave us alone.
You do not come to our town was part of their message to Trump.
Quick timeout.
Thanks very much for the call, Jason.
Appreciate it.
Be back here, folks.
Hang in there.
I'll tell you another reason why radical leftists are going crazy out here.
How about all of the mainstream media opinion pieces on how Trump is Hitler?
The Washington Post has had a couple columnists write seriously how Trump is Hitler, And Chris Christie is Joseph Goebbels.
I'm not kidding.
You've had the New York Times.
You've had New Yorker or the New York magazine, I forget which, they've done pieces on how Trump is the modern-day Hitler or Mussolini.
The stuff doesn't just get written and then fade away.
Remember who reads this stuff.
I mean, the people that read the New York Times, folks, they have become you you wouldn't recognize them.
It's a it's a it's a collectivist bunch of radicals like you wouldn't believe.
And almost the same thing now with the Washington Post, and then you put those pieces, excerpts of those pieces in Twitter and on Facebook, and have that stuff circulating through the cesspool of human debris that lives in the sewers of Twitter, and it isn't going to be long before these radical anarchists get in gear and start trying to shut down and prevent the next Hitler.
And it's not Republicans out there saying that.
It's people that write for the Washington Post.
There was a there's been a couple of them in the post, and one of them was a woman, uh uh a professor, maybe at Harvard, I I forget which, but she was dead serious that Trump is Hitler.
So when you you want to start assigning blame, look, I know a lot of you think that Trump is partially culpable because of what he's advocating happened to these protesters when they show up at his events.
All well and good, but his protesters, I mean his supporters are not leaving his events and going over to crazy Bernie's or Hillary's and trying to wreak havoc.
It isn't happening.
There aren't any protesters at Bernie Sanders rallies.
Or at Hillary's rallies.
Speaking of Hillary, get this a newsmax story, the headline, world leaders asking to endorse Hillary to stop Trump.
The story is that world leaders are calling Hillary Clinton privately to ask if they can endorse her in hopes of stopping Trump.
And she's the source of the story.
I'm already receiving messages from leaders, and I'm having foreign leaders ask if they can endorse me to stop Donald Trump.
She said it last night in the CNN Democrat candidate forum.
And I'm like, no, this is up to Americans.
Thank you very much.
You want a crock this is.
What an absolute crock.
Mrs. Clinton, let me tell you something.
You better shut up about this, or you're going to do yourself great harm.
The last people American voters want to hear from is foreign leaders on your side.
They are considered the problem.
All these globalist internationalists that pay you all this money to do speeches, they are the problem.
And you proudly say they're calling, asking to endorse you, and you're saying no.
American voters decide what happens in America.
It's a I don't believe it's even true.
It's how out of touch she is to think revealing a story like this is actually going to gin up support for her.
Oh, you know, all the international leaders are for me.
The ones that have paid me $250,000 to speak to them, international leaders who really know how bad this country is, they are for me.
That's like that's like hammering a nail into the coffin.
As though she's doing it herself.
I want you to hear Rubio.
This is from Saturday morning in Largo, Florida.
He held a press conference, and many people said this is one of his best press conferences ever.
That if this Rubio had been present uh during the entire campaign that we'd be looking at a different set of circumstances right now.
But a reporter uh basically wanted to get Rubio to confirm that he's going to support the nominee regardless.
Report him as a nominee if he if he's the nominee?
I don't know.
I mean, I already talked about the fact that I think Hillary Clinton would be terrible for this country, but the fact that you're even asking me that question, I still at this moment continue to intend to support the Republican nominee.
But getting harder every day.
Now, people that saw it and I saw it, uh said it was genuine.
And it to me it looked he was genuinely pained here answering this as though he is genuinely pained about what he is seeing.
And This was, remember Saturday morning after what went down in Chicago the night before.
And remember, early Saturday morning, this was this was like before 10 on Saturday morning in Largo.
At that time, there were still a whole lot of people.
The effort was underway to blame Trump for this.
And that one, I don't care what you think, Trump had nothing to do with that one.
His rally never even started.
That was fully shut down by anti-Trump protesters.
His people never even assembled.
They had not one thing to do with it.
But the effort was being made to say it was all Trump's fault.
This is further deterioration of the Republican campaign, and Rubio was reacting to it on that basis.
Snurdly, you remember the name Michael Lind.
He's a former protege of William F. Buckley Jr. and Dr. Kissinger.
And he had a piece in the Politico last week that we're witnessing the end of Buckley Goldwater Reagan conservatism.
That's what all of this means.
