Have you seen this photo that this millennial guy took with the hijacker on board that you know?
Ever since the advent of social media, Facebook and Twitter, well, not since the advent, but but I guess pretty close to it.
Those of you who have listened regularly are well aware, I hope you remember, of my considered warnings about the potential problems that could erupt from this.
And at the time, what I noticed was that everybody on these social media websites was just dying to be famous, doing anything they could to be noticed.
And I I thought I knew why.
I mean, I was able to analyze why people wanted fame.
They see fame presented by entertainment media, for example, and it really looks cool.
What is fame?
If you watch TMZ, if you watch Entertainment Tonight, or any of these other the e-entertainment network, if you read certain entertainment websites, what do you see?
You see a bunch of famous people who are all beautiful living a constant party.
They're constantly on yachts, or they are constantly clubbing, or they are constantly on the red carpet.
They're constantly getting great things written about them.
The men are surrounded by a bevy, always of scantily clad women who are throwing themselves at them.
The women are the epitome of beauty, and every woman wishes she would be like those that she sees they see portrayed in entertainment media.
In entertainment media, nobody gets ripped except in the National Inquirer.
But eentertainment network, the uh Entertainment Tonight Show, all these networks just do nothing but fawning puff piece stories.
And they go out of their way to make these people crucially important.
They're important on such things as climate change like uh Leonardo DiCaprio.
They're important in all kinds of ways.
They have it all their lives are the epitome of perfection.
And so everybody who wants to matter in their life, and most people know that that they're not anywhere near in the same league as these famous people, but they want a taste of it.
And so they go to social media and they take pictures of themselves and they publish them all, and they vomit every bit of personal information about themselves, and they relish having followers because that's as close as they can get to fame.
And it becomes something almost like an out-of-body experience.
It's unhealthy, it is abnormal, it's not productive, and the whole thing is very seductive.
And I saw this coming decades ago.
And I my my fear was that it was going to steer people into the Syberitic pursuit pursuits of life and the and the non-substantive, totally zero accomplishment aspects of of life.
Just hedonism, constant uh sibaritic pursuits, uh, and and ultimately people concocting fantasies that they actually in their minds live in each and every day.
And things that matter that really matter don't register with them, and things that don't really matter at all in life end up taking primacy, superiority as quests, as ambitions, and it's reached a pinnacle here.
An Egypt air passenger who was among the hostages held during that six-hour hijacking drama, convinced this lunatic terrorist who himself, I guess, was lovelorn.
He had seized the plane, he was holding everybody hostage.
He convinced the would-be terrorist to pose for a picture amidst all this.
His name was Ben Innes, and he said, you know, I'm not sure why I did it.
I I just threw caution to the wind while trying to stay cheerful in the face of adversity, he told the UK Sun.
I figured if his bomb was real, nothing to lose anyway, so I took a chance to get a closer look at it.
This guy's from Leeds.
He is a 26-year-old health and safety auditor.
Safety auditor.
It means this guy is auditing safety procedures under the auspices of the government at various places.
He said the plane was on the runway in Cyprus, the hijackers still calling the shots, when I got one of the cabin crew to translate for me and asked if I could do a selfie with him.
And the terrorist just shrugged and said, okay, so I stood by him and smiled for the camera while a stewardess took the picture.
It has to be the best selfie ever, he said.
Should we what should we call the millennials now?
The selfie generation.
It seems it seems to be overtaking them.
Seems to be the primary thing that many of them, not all, of course, uh, care about.
And I I saw the picture, and here's this guy, the terrorist with the supposed bomb around his waist and his coke bottle glasses, standing next to this millennial with his Ralph Loren Polo shirt.
Just biggest geek smile you've ever seen.
Picture being taken on board a plane that has been hijacked.
And I thought this nails it.
This is it this epitomizes every I won't call it fear, because I my ultimate hope is that that young people grow out of this stuff.
I'm not going to become an old fuddy duty, get off my lawn, kind of old guy, folks.
I always vowed that, but this is not psychologically healthy.
Then you look out all over the country and you find out these are the people who think, these millennials, these are the people who think that the problems that exist in America today have nothing to do with the Democrat Party, nothing to do with liberalism, nothing to do with current Obama administration policy.
They sadly think that the country's best days just happen to be behind us now.
Their birth happened to coincide with peak America.
They are a product of very poor education because that's been dominated by the left wing for generations.
And so they're seeking happiness, fulfillment and meaning in ways that really don't provide any happiness, fulfillment or meaning.
And I do hope they grow out of it.
But this to me is just the epitome of what I was talking about.
And I look, you could say, Rush, this is the kids are gonna grow out of it.
It's 36-year-olds.
Is this guy 36?
What's his age here?
24, 34.
He's 26.
I don't know.
When I was 26, it was rather expected that my feet were planted and I'd be going somewhere.
I mean, if I wanted to be taken seriously.
Talking about careers and career paths and this kind of thing.
I don't want to be too harsh, not trying to be exhibiting a lack of understanding.
My my c my my actual fears are rooted in compassion for these people.
Because no matter how you slice it, they are.
They do represent the future of the country.
At some point, they are going to become the leaders of whatever it is they happen to be living in, whether it's in their community or in their careers or what have you.
And so I just epitomized uh the the problem.
This is it's dangerous, but here this guy's got bragging right.
Look at me, look at me, look at me, notice me, notice me.
I'm telling you it's not healthy.
All these people that want fame have no idea of the downsides of it.
They never see the downside.
Even when they do see the downsides of it, I'm wrong.
They do see the downsides of it.
They, like everybody else does, ignore that.
Oh, that wasn't gonna happen to me.
And they really think this is something that's within their grasp.
And it's the same people running around worried the NSA is spying on them or some other such thing, and you just want to shake them.
Nobody has to spy on you.
You are telling everybody who will listen everything there is to know about you.
Because if truth be known, you're desperate to be known.
You are seeking this this fame as though it's in and of itself uh rewarding.
And fame for no other reason than fame makes you a Kardashian.
Now if people aspire to that, then they do.
But the fame that results or the notoriety that results from actual achievement and success, believe me, it takes on an entirely different meaning.
You treat it an entirely different way when it is not the pursuit, when it hasn't been the objective, when it's just something that happens as a result of achieving something else, it is an entirely entirely different thing.
Okay, quick time out here.
We come back and uh calls audio soundright roster on the campaign, latest things happening, they are all coming up.
Sit tight, we'll be right back.
And back to the phones, Jackie in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Great to have you on the program.
Hello.
Hi, thank you, Mr. Limbach.
You bet.
Um you were talking earlier about who's responsible for uh Trump.
And everybody wants to talk about who's responsible for Trump, like it's you.
I mean, you're you're you're just one person, or that it's this person.
I'm responsible for Trump.
Um me.
How so?
I'm a middle class person.
They they take us out every what, four years.
Well, you see, here's the thing.
The the the the who's responsible for Trump argument is being advanced by the people who actually are responsible for it, who don't want to accept the blame.
So they're trying to shift it to others.
And implied in this uh discussion is that there is blame for Trump, that there's something inherently wrong with supporting Trump.
There's something almost sinful about it, and therefore somebody's responsible for it, and whoever's responsible for it is whatever you want to call them, some derogatory term.
Yeah, the people.
Well, uh what about Joe the plumber?
They they they have him out here what what was that like eight years ago or four Oh, Joe the plumber, Joe the plumber.
No, I know what you're saying.
You you're you're a supporter of Trump.
You have specific reasons, and what you're saying is I voted for Obama twice.
Right.
But you're now you like Trump.
I well but let me finish.
I know what you're saying.
You're saying you're doing this on your own.
Nobody's making you do it, nobody's influencing you to do it except Trump.
Nobody is blackmailing you, nobody has poisoned your mind.
You're doing this of your own free will because you like the guy, right?
Uh, because I think he he could make a difference.
Right.
I I I like that.
But the people running around trying to assign blame for you think that you're incapable of thinking on your own.
Incapable of making up your mind on these matters.
You have to be the result.
In other words, some people believe that you wouldn't think what you think if I had only criticized Trump the way they want Trump criticized.
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
I used to listen to you a long time ago, and then I quit listening to you, and then I started listening to you again.
Um actually never went away.
I mean if you I did.
If you well, no, but then you can't you came back.
Well, I did.
Yes.
So the way we look at it here, you never really went away.
I was always in your heart.
I was always on your mind.
You found your way back.
Well, you said something years ago about uh when the tsunami hit.
And you said, trust me on this people.
They're gonna def they're they're gonna inflate these numbers of people.
And I was i i that kind of turned me off on you.
Right.
And so then I quit listening to you.
And then I came back.
Because you found out I was right.
Yes.
You are.
You are right, because you say it like it is.
And let me tell you, when you tell people when when you were saying that that all we do is we just want to get mad at Muslims and we want to get mad at we we we just want Trump to stick it to him.
No, we don't.
I'm not wait a minute now.
We don't want Trump No, but you're you're saying that they said that that's what we want.
It's not me saying it.
That's that's that's what all these people who are blaming me for Trump.
And and that's not what we're about.
We we don't want to stick it to anybody.
We want where did the steel industry grow?
You know?
Mm-hmm.
Why don't we make steel here anymore?
Can you tell me that?
Yeah.
I could.
But you already know.
You I mean that's that's why you're supporting Trump.
Because we need something different.
We need something that's gonna, and I think that he will work tirelessly.
Look, I'm that there's nobody, and I'm just gonna say this flat out.
There's nobody that can better explain the Trump phenomenon than me.
I've been doing it since last July.
I know exactly why you're voting the way you are.
I know exactly what it is, and I'm not trying to put you down, say this.
I'm I'm saying this because I understand you.
I I I know exactly where you're coming from.
But even saying that, see, people assume that I am endorsing Trump when I when I explain why people support him.
Well, how would you know that unless he thinks the same thing is what people believe.
And of course, never said that.
Uh but I know why you support Trump.
I know why I and there many there are probably a host of reasons why people support Trump.
I understand them all.
Not to say that I agree with them all or disagree with any of them.
That's not the point, but I understand them.
I know who the people that make this country work are.
And I know what they're mad about, and I know what they're upset about, and I know what they want fixed.
Um, and a lot of that I do agree with.
But I uh I do get it.
So I appreciate your call.
Thanks.
Thanks so much, Jackie.
Here's uh to lay, is that how you pronounce it?
What is it?
Louis?
Louie in uh in Highland Park, New Jersey.
Great to have you on the program.
Hello.
Thank you for taking my call, Rush.
Um, my question is my point is um you did a terrific uh interview with um Chris Wallace a few weeks back.
Excellent interview, it was interesting to watch you on the other end, you know, fielding questions.
You did a great job.
Thank you, sir.
Um you you made a point, you said ultimately you believe the Republican Party will come together when the dust settles.
You said other times, you know, we gotta defeat Hillary Clinton.
My question is forget all the hullabaloo what you know went on by the town hall meeting yesterday and it's all over the news that you know all the Republicans uh they're not gonna support the nominee.
But I think ultimately, you know, Ted Cruz will support the nominee if it's Trump.
My question is if there is my question to you, Rush, is if there is a contested convention and they don't parachute a third party and it's between Trump and Cruz, and somehow Cruz has the better ground game and he wins, what do you think Trump will do?
Will he accept that or because somehow I believe he won't.
I'd like to know what you think about that, because your your main point to Chris Wallace was you said the the party will come together.
And I'm just questioning that.
How do you see that if Trump if um if Cruz outdoes him in the in the ground game in the in the convention, how you see uh what you see happening?
Well, there are m a whole bunch of different variables that I will throw in there in my in my answer to this.
Um let's take your scenario that we don't have anybody get twelve thirty-seven, it goes to a contested convention, and under your hypothetical, Cruz ends up with the better organization and actually ends up with more delegates than Trump in the second or third ballot than Trump actually got, say, during the primaries.
Therefore you don't see Trump supporting Cruz in that outcome.
That's correct.
Well, now wait, okay.
I just wanted I wanted to make sure that was your premise before I answer.
Yes, that's my point.
Okay.
If that if that contest that you have just described, if Trump thinks that it has been unfair, if Trump thinks that the party stacked it stacked the deck against him and didn't give him a a fair shot at acquiring the delegates on the second or third ballot, if he thinks that they wrote rules that were only punitive to him, then he may not back the nominee.
But I'll tell you something else you better think about.
Forget Trump.
Forget what Trump does.
You better be more concerned what Trump's legion of voters are going to do.
Well, if they think if they think their guy has been shafted, they're going to interpret that as them having been shafted.
They're going to once again think the establishment has denied them, ignored them, or worse, shafted them.
And then it'll depend on how Trump talks to him and what Trump's role is in the campaign going forward.
We there are too many unknowns to predict what's going to happen here.
And I wouldn't even try at this stage.
You may have heard, ladies and gentlemen, that the campaign manager...
Is that what Lewandowski is?
Is that his action?
Campaign manager.
Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski.
Um either arrested, charged, uh written order to appear, whatever uh people want to say, has been charged with uh misdemeanor battery in an altercation with a reporter from Breitbart, former reporter Breitbart, Michelle Fields.
It happened up in Jupiter here in Florida at the Trump golf course up there after a Trump press conference rather than a victory speech.
Trump press conference.
You've seen it by now, in many different video angles.
Trump was leaving the stage, an entourage behind him.
The press conference was over.
There were some reporters trailing along.
Michelle Fields apparently asked Trump a question at which point she was grabbed and pulled away from Trump by Cory Lewandowski, the campaign manager.
This is according to witnesses in about 13,000 different angles of video tape.
And she has now uh filed a police report some days later, and Lewandowski has been charged by the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office with this misdemeanor battery.
The max penalty is a year in prison, or and or a year probation and whatever fine it might be tossed out.
Trump has been making the rounds, press conference on his airplane, press conferences all over the state of Wisconsin, TV appearances defending Lewandowski.
We have audio sound bites as examples of this.
We'll start with Good Morning America today.
David Muir, uh fill-in host, says, Mr. Trump, Mr. Trump, you've had a chance to watch the video.
Battery or not, is it now clear to you that your campaign manager did in fact touch that woman?
When you read her statement, actually, she said she was jolted backwards.
Someone had grabbed me tightly by the arm and yanked me down.
She wasn't yanked down.
She was hardly even touched.
Then she goes, campaign managers aren't supposed to try and forcibly throw reporters to the ground.
He didn't try to throw her to the ground.
Now, when she found out there was a tape supplied by me, by the way, I'm the one that had the tape.
When she found out I had the tape, all of a sudden, perhaps she changes her tune.
But I think it's a disgrace in a world where they're chopping off heads, where they're drowning people in cages.
Everybody that's seen this tape that I know, and you look at Twitter, people think it's a total disgrace that she actually filed charges.
Then uh Muir continued to look at Trump with a perplexed look on his face, which prompted Trump to continue.
I'm gonna fire him because uh he may have brushed her.
Well, she brushed me, she grabbed my arm.
You see that.
She shouldn't have been grabbing me if you want to be technical about it.
Maybe should I file charges against her because she touched my arm also?
It's absolutely ridiculous.
It's out of control.
And I'll tell you, the other candidates, they said, oh, I should fire him.
That's because they're weak, ineffective people.
They fire.
They want to be politically correct.
I don't want to be politically correct.
I want to be correct.
Okay, it sounds to me Like Trump is standing by Corey Lewandowski and is saying that he doesn't think whatever happened approaches anything near like the way it's being reported.
Is that a pretty fair right?
Okay.
Now skip number five, because I don't think it's got anything to do with it.
We move forward to number six.
This is uh Matt Wauer talking to Trump on the Today Show.
Uh and here's Matt Wower's question.
Right after this incident, Corey Lewandowski tweeted that she was delusional, and he tweeted that he never touched her.
The video tape easily and plainly shows that in fact he did grab her and did pull her.
And whether you want to debate whether she almost fell down or not, he didn't tell the truth.
If your president of the United States and a member of your staff, your chief of staff goes to the American people and publicly doesn't tell the truth in the way that Corey Lewandowski hasn't told the truth, would you put up with it?
And here's Trump's reply.
When you look at what happened, it was so minor that he might not have even thought about it.
Because to be honest with you, when you look at this, it was so minor.
People are calling saying, what is this all about?
We have people in the Middle East chopping off heads and drowning people in cages, and he brushes her, and he brushed her to get probably, probably to get her her hand off my arm.
Right.
Uh another thing Trump has been saying is that uh she had no right touch him, that she reached out, touched him trying to get his attention that the interview was over.
The press, the gaggle, the press conference period was over, she was uh violating protocol or whatever.
Uh and he points out that on the video you can see him retract his arm when somebody that he can't see, because all this is happening behind him, grabs uh grabs for his arm.
Well, now we moved to CNN last night, the Republican town hall, Anderson Cooper speaking with Ted Cruz about the Trump campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski being charged with battery.
And Anderson Cooper said, Now, Donald Trump's campaign manager Lewandowski charged today with simple battery.
If he was your campaign manager, would you ask him to resign?
Of course.
Look, it shouldn't be complicated that members of a campaign staff should not be physically assaulting the press.
I mean, that shouldn't be a complicated decision.
He says he's innocent of all the charges.
You believe it was assault?
He's just been charged.
I know that the reporter alleged that she was physically assaulted.
That I will say it's consistent with the pattern of the Trump campaign.
You think it says something about the campaign itself, about the leadership.
The culture of the campaign has been a campaign built on attacks, on insults.
And I think there is no place in politics for insults, for personal attacks, for going to the gutter, and and there should be no place for physical violence either.
Now what?
What?
I'm sorry.
I I'm sorry, will you people stop reacting in there?
I've got all three of my staff on the other side of the glass reacting here.
And uh I uh just I have no comment on this.
As you know, I have I have imposed my own uh gag, if you will, uh a gag order on my because I'll tell you why.
It's not it's not that I don't care whether people disagree with what I say, but when they don't even hear it and they misreport what I've said and don't I can handle people disagreeing with me until hell freeze is over.
But if people are gonna raise hell when not even having heard what I said, what's the point?
So I have I'm I'm not commenting on this.
I have I'm not gonna opine on this.
You can come to your own conclusions, whatever you want in the butt we're not through here.
This story would not be complete without the governor of Ohio being asked about it, John Kasich.
That also happened on CNN last night.
Uh Anderson Cooper said Donald Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, charged today with simple battery.
Would you fire him?
Well, I haven't seen the video, but they tell me the video is real, and of course I would.
Look, you know, when you have problems like that, you have to act.
Now I've been, of course, an executive running the seventh largest state, and we see things that happen at time.
You want to give people the benefit of the doubt, but uh, you know, when you see things that are pretty clear, uh, from what I understand the video is clear, of course I would fire him.
Right.
Okay, so Kasich, of course.
Oh, sorry, sorry.
No opinion here.
Uh sticking with the Republican town hall, this is Anderson Cooper back now to Ted Cruz.
If Donald Trump is the GOP nominee, and Corey Lewandowski isn't fired, or if he is, will you support Trump if he's the nominee?
Let me tell you my solution to that.
Donald is not going to be the GOP nominee.
We're going to beat him.
I would be remiss if I didn't follow up.
I will assume by you not saying you would support him, the answer is you would not support him if you're I gave you my answer.
Listen, I think nominating Donald Trump would be an absolute train wreck.
I think nominating Donald Trump is a disaster.
And so the answer to that is not to scream and yell and cry and attack him.
The answer to that is to beat him at the ballot box.
That's what we're working every day to do.
And there you have Ted Cruz explaining what he would do in terms of endorsing or not endorsing, supporting or not supporting Donald Trump, were he to be the nominee of the Republican Party.
At the same gathering, the CNN Republican Town Hall, Anderson Cooper continued to speak with the candidates.
Up next was Donald Trump.
And Cooper said, more than six months ago, you pledge to support the Republican nominee, whoever that may be.
A lot has changed since then, Mr. Trump.
When I was pressing Senator Cruz on it, sounded like he was saying that he would have a hard time supporting somebody who went after his wife, as you have gone after his wife, Mr. Trump.
So given that, what is your reaction to the proposition that you pledged you would support the nominee, the Republican Party months ago?
Obviously, he doesn't have to support me.
I'm not asking for support.
Do you continue to pledge whoever the Republican nominee is?
Uh no, I don't anyway.
Look, uh you don't?
No, we'll see who it is.
I've been treated very unfairly.
Uh I'll give you an example.
Who?
I think by basically the RNC, the Republican Party, the establishment.
Donald Trump there with Anderson Cooper.
And now Anderson Cooper continues.
CNN owned the news cycle last night with the Republican town hall.
Up next, the governor of Ohio, John Kasich.
Mr. Cooper said a pledge was made early on in this race by all the Republican candidates, saying that they would pledge to support whoever the nominee was.
Tonight, Donald Trump said that pledge essentially was null and void.
He would not pledge to continue to support whoever the nominee is.
He would have to wait and see.
And Ted Cruz wouldn't really answer it, but implied that a lot has changed.
What about you, Governor Kasich?
You have a remarkable story, son of a mailman from McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania.
You've won one state, your own.
It's a remarkable story.
What about you, sir, and your pledge to support the eventual Republican nominee?
Maybe I won't answer it either.
I mean, Anderson, here's the thing.
This is what you have to weigh.
I've been disturbed by some of the things that I've seen, and I have to think about what my word and endorsement would mean, you know, presidential campaign.
So I want to see how this thing finishes out.
It's a very, very important aspect of the campaign, what Governor Kasich thinks.
And as you heard, he's being very, very careful.
And he's weighing his options with great weight.
He's waiting to determine all factors before providing his all-important support, or perhaps his crucial decline of support.
Mr. Cooper wasn't finished with him and said, so you, Governor Kasich, of the remarkable story from Ohio, you're not ironclad, standing by the initial pledge to support whoever the nominee is.
Am I hearing you correctly, sir?
You know, frankly, all of us shouldn't even have answered that question, but it was the first debate, and you know, what the heck.
Sometimes you answer questions, you ought to just say I'm not answering it.
So now uh just to be clear, I'm as clear as you're gonna get out of it.
You're not standing, you're not standing by that to be political here.
I gotta see what happens.
If the nominee Is somebody that I think is really hurting the country and dividing the country.
I can't stand behind them.
The end result here is that uh they all backed away from their pledge to support the nominee.
That's basically it, right?
I can say pretty safe to say that.
That's not an opinion, right?
That's a factual conclusion.
Okay, we'll be back after this.
Don't forward.
Here is Edward in Leesburg, Virginia.
Back to the phones we go, the Rush Limbaugh program.
Hello, sir.
How are you?
Hi.
Um thank you for taking my call.
You bet, sir.
Uh I told your that I was uh who wanted to talk about being a uh Trumper Trumpster.
Uh and it seems like to me that the papers not you, but most of the liberal people say that the Trumpsters are a bunch of uh blue-collar or lore people.
Uh I was with the Republican Party a number of years.
I was an Eagle.
What exactly is an Eagle?
An eagle is a major fundraiser, donor, and bundler, correct?
Yes.
$250,000 minimum.
Am I correct in that?
Over time, not at one time.
Right, but over time.
Some people do do it in a day.
Depends on who you know and where you go.
And uh after Bush got out of office, uh, I just kind of walked away.
Uh I uh didn't like the way the party was going.
I still gave money, but not to the party.
I gave to the individual.
I gave Cruz money to run for Senate.
I gave Rubio money, and I also gave the Ohio governor money.
Oh no.
Uh oh, I mean, oh, interesting.
Interesting.
What is that?
No, that's interesting that you did that.
So so you you now uh but but you're you've become a Trumpster is what you're doing.
I've become a Trumpster, and the reason is because I want to pick a winner.
Now, uh I also, you know, I was a recon officer in the Marine Corps.
Let me ask you Edward, can I ask you a couple of questions?
Yeah.
Do you chew tobacco?
No, I don't.
Do you have pictures of naked women on your bedroom ceiling?
No, I don't.
Then how can you be a Trump supporter?
Do you do you uh let's see, do you do you uh uh ride a motorcycle?
Uh if I could I would, but I I don't write 'em.
But you're a pickup truck with a gun rack in the back.
I have pickup trucks.
They're they're old pickup trucks.
I collect cars.
Right.
And do you do you count the number of people you hate every day?
Number of people I hate?
Yeah, that's what Trumpists do.
I mean, we're told that Trump supporters hate it.
In no way, no way.
I don't hate anybody.
Is that right?
Uh Michael Carson would be shocked.
Sometimes when some of these people do things, uh I begin to hate them, but uh I withdraw after a while.
But I was you want to torture everybody you disagree with.
No.
You want to torture criminals.
You don't want to torture uh I want to torture people uh uh uh that I can't say, but uh I agree with Trump in in torturing people that are killing our people.
Right.
In order to get to the bottom of it as a order to get to the bottom of stop it from happening.
I had a nephew that was uh in Afghanistan, he was a captain, and uh he was told he went to the front lines, even though he was an artillery, he he asked if he could go to the front lines.
He went to the front lines, and what they told him was look, unless they shoot at you, you can't shoot it.
No, yeah.
I've you know, we heard about those rules of engagement.
You have to let them shoot at you five times before you can return fire.
And if it's a woman you have to wait till they're fired at eight times or some sort of thing.
I don't know.
I've heard about the rules of engagement and how under Obama and how uh punitive and ridiculous they are.

Thank you much.

They're asking me why I didn't comment it.
Jackie, our caller from uh Charlottesville, Virginia, said that she used to listen and then got mad and turned me off and found out that I was right anyway.
She came back.
She admitted she said that she had voted twice for Obama, and now she's supporting Trump.
