Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Yes, America's Anchorman is away, and this is your official EIB anchor baby, Mark Stein.
Honored to be with you live from Ice Station EIB in far northern New Hampshire.
This is about as far as you can go and still be in America.
That's why the accents start to wobble when you get up to this latitude.
But we are here live.
1-800-282-2882 is the number.
If you wish to partake of America's number one radio show, if you want to get on the show, 1-800-282-2882, we take all comers.
Doesn't matter who you support.
You can support Trump.
You can support Bernie.
You can support Hillary.
You can be agitating for the Ben Sas John Kasich dream ticket.
You can be one of these people trying to get Mark Cuban to run as the real Conservative candidate, even though he doesn't want to run and he's voting for Hillary.
You can be one of these people who wants to get General Mattis or Condi Rice to jump in the race and go third party.
Doesn't, doesn't.
Mr. Snerdley has already hit the floor.
He's so excited about the General Mattis Condi Rice dream ticket.
Whoever it is you want to be a president, whoever you favor for president, whoever you're opposed to, call 1-800-282-2882.
We take anyone.
Rush is playing golf today.
He's hitting the links.
I don't think he actually wears plus fours, although I'm sure they would be very stylish if he did favor plus fours.
But he's playing golf in a charity golf tournament.
He's super generous with his time like that, and it sometimes means that the show has to make do with a guest host, as it does today.
But Rush will return tomorrow to take you through the end of the week on the EIB network.
Happy International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia to you.
I know it's a big day.
Happy International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia.
So if you're biphobia, Mr. Snerdley is like so out.
He doesn't know what biphobia is.
I think I thought I was biphobic because I hate both gays and straights.
But apparently that's not what it is.
Biphobia is where you're phobic about bisexuals.
That's apparently what that is.
And honestly, Mr. Snerdley, where have you been living?
Look out the window.
The parade, the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia parade will be passing your window right now in New York.
It'll be coming down right down Fifth Avenue.
Just look out the window.
It's not going so well for Amy Toms, a 22-year-old woman who favors a pixie haircut and likes to sport a baseball cap.
She went into the ladies' powder room at Walmart in Danbury, Connecticut, and despite being a woman, a biological woman, or a cisgendered woman, as the New York Daily News describes her, despite being a woman, she was told she was obviously a transgender in order to get out.
Cisgender is when you were born a woman and you haven't decided to change.
That's the new word.
Cisgendered.
Yeah, it's not like there's transgendered and cisgendered.
And if you're born a woman, as Amy Toms was, and you go into Walmart in Danbury, Connecticut, and you go in to use the little girl's room, she was told she was obviously a transgender woman in order to get out.
And you're not supposed to be here.
You need to leave, she was told.
So a cisgendered woman is mistaken for a trans woman and kicked out of the ladies' room.
Don't you hate it when that happens?
This is America in the 21st century.
It's all transgendered bathrooms all the time.
But we'll try to get to some of the non-transgendered news, if there is any today, if any of it comes across the transom.
1-800-282-2882.
If you're a Kentucky or Oregon Democrat, give us a call.
Let us know how the big primary is going.
If Bernie wins both tonight, it's bad news for Hillary.
If Hillary wins both, it ought to be curtains for Bernie.
But if it's one apiece, I guess they'll both stagger on till California.
Nevada Democrat headquarters remains closed following their weekend convention, which turned extremely violent.
It looks like a scene from that Turkish parliament riot that they had a couple of weeks ago.
There was chair hurling among Democrats, among Democrats.
There's all these like pajama boys hurling chairs, booing Barbara Boxer, having a big, yeah, chair hurling from pajama boys.
They're stamping their little pajama boy feet and getting in and getting furious at Barbara Boxer because she supports Hillary.
And there have been apparent death threats from Bernie supporters to Hillary.
This is after, as we mentioned yesterday, the Hillary supporter and Hollywood actor Wendell Pierce was arrested for physically assaulting one of Bernie's female supporters over the weekend.
This is the Democrat Party.
All they are saying is give physical violence and death threats a chance.
The Democrat Party is being torn apart by the Hillary Bernie fight.
Kurt Schilling, great American sporting legend, until he was booted off, was it ESPN for doing his little transphobic joke.
So on this International Day Against Transphobia, notorious ESPN transphobe Kurt Schilling has written a lengthy piece explaining why he's endorsing Donald Trump.
As well, you might imagine, because obviously he fell victim to the politically correct enforcers and he understood they were deadly serious and they're willing to end your career over it.
And he's written a piece explaining why he's supporting Donald Trump.
So that's our way of connecting the International Day Against Transphobia with the current political news.
Also on the election front, a new poll shows that Trump has narrowed Clinton's lead nationally to three points.
This is an NBC News survey monkey poll from Tuesday.
Previously, it showed that Hillary had a five-point advantage.
Now it's three points: 48% for Hillary, 45% for Trump.
That's margin of error stuff.
Here's the interesting thing: 87%, according to this poll, and it follows the poll from yesterday, the Gravis poll that showed Hillary with a two-point lead over Trump.
So, in other words, this week's polls show where now it's a wash, it's margin of error territory.
87% of Republicans would back Trump, while just 7% of Republicans would support Clinton.
On the other side, among Democrat voters, 87% favor Clinton, and just 8% of Democrats support Trump.
That's interesting.
There's actually more Democrats willing to support Trump than Republicans willing to support Clinton.
Among independents, Trump holds an eight-point advantage among independent voters: 44% for Trump, 36% for Clinton.
So, this is an interesting state of affairs at this state of the race.
I said yesterday I thought Trump would win.
If Hillary does win, nobody, you know, it's like six months out still, the election.
And what do I know?
You know, I come from countries where election campaigns are six weeks long.
But it's six months out.
And my sense is that Trump will win.
If Hillary does win, it'll be one of these things where she ekes out a very narrow victory.
So, all the stuff people have been saying about that Hillary supporters and never Trump people wish to believe that it's going to be a Hillary blowout.
That is not going to happen.
That is not going to happen.
And these polls already show that, in fact, it's just, in those terms, it's a competitive election.
It's a two-point lead for Hillary, according to Gravis.
It's a three-point lead for Hillary, according to this new NBC news poll.
But either way, it's not going to be a Hillary blowout.
And that's why this talk about a third-party run.
This third-party run is, by the way, is brilliant.
They've got everything.
They've got media pundits lined up in support of it.
They've got big Republican donors lined up in support of it.
They've got the most prestigious consultants lined up in support of it.
They've got Mike Murphy, who ran the incredibly successful Jeb Bush super PAC.
They've got Stuart Stevens.
They've got Rick Wilson.
They've got all the consultants.
They've got a lot of the think tank and GOP intellectual class.
They've got a lot of the big Republican high-rolling donors and bundlers.
What they haven't got is a candidate.
What they haven't got is a candidate.
And the more you have polls like this, the less likely there is to be a third-party candidate.
So you can, as I said yesterday, if you want to talk about the third party and the third party run, there's a piece, there's a fascinating piece in the Federalist, which explains today that if, say, Rick Perry, and I don't know why they give Rick Perry as the example, because Rick Perry, actually, Rick Perry, having described Trump as the cancer at the heart of the Republican Party, has now endorsed him.
But they've got this thing explaining over at the Federalist how if Rick Perry jumped in and was the third party candidate and just won Texas, that would be enough to deny both Hillary and Trump a majority in the Electoral College.
Neither candidate would get to 270, and then it would be thrown into the House of Representatives, and the House of Representatives would vote to give it neither to Hillary nor to Trump, but to give it to Rick Perry, who'd won his home state of Texas.
You can write all these fantasy scenarios, these alternative universe things.
It's like Spider-Man.
I mentioned the Avengers movie yesterday, this Captain America Civil War.
They've got a new Spider-Man origin in that.
His mother, his aunt, Aunt May, in the new Spider-Man, is Marissa Tomei.
I couldn't get over this.
Aunt May in the Spider-Man things is supposed to be a little stooped, white-haired old lady, but they've now turned her into this super cougar hotty Marissa Tomei because they've given Spider-Man a new origin story.
He's got like 12 different origin stories.
So if you get bored with one, there's another one.
These Republican election scenarios are coming the same way like that.
Oh, we're going to have a contested in an alternative universe.
There's a contested convention in which on the seventh ballot it goes to George Pataki.
None of it.
And now we've got this third party.
Rick Perry's going to jump in.
He'll win Texas.
And that way the House of Representatives will vote to crown him.
They will discard the millions of people who voted both for Clinton and Trump and vote to crown and anoint Rick Perry of Texas in some alternative universe.
And if you're one of these big Republican donors writing checks to Mike Murphy, if you want to write a check to Mike Murphy because you gave him $100 million to get Jeb Bush to 2.8% in Iowa and you think that's so impressive, you can't wait to give him another $100 million to find somebody to run as your third party candidate in an alternative universe.
If you want to live in that alternative universe for the next few months, that's fine.
Go ahead and do that.
Back in the real world, the candidates are known and we have to live with that as is.
That's a fact.
That's reality.
All this other stuff is, as I said yesterday, it's just Marvel Comics fantasy for DCE Beltway types.
Mark Stein for Rush, we will take your calls, 1-800-282-2882 and discuss all the news of the day in this turbulent election season straight ahead.
Hey, Mark Stein, in for us on the EIB network.
Great to be with you.
Give us a call, 1-800-282-2882.
The American right is supposedly at war over the results of the primary season.
Although this poll, this new poll from NBC News suggests that that is not the case, that 87% of Republicans right now are prepared to support Trump.
You don't get that impression if you follow either Twitter or you, particularly if you follow the Twitter feeds of some of these consultants and pundits and all the rest of it, where they're still planning the third party candidacy and all the rest of it.
But they are 87% at the moment, which isn't bad, before the convention, are planning to support the nominee, Donald J. Trump.
If you disagree with that, there's a lot of disagreement just of the guest hosts, among the guest hosts of the Rush Limbo Show, when we all get together for the EIB guest host Christmas party, because Rush doesn't let us come to the main EIB Christmas party, so we just have to go to the EIB guest host Christmas party.
It is, it is.
It's just like it's worse than being at the kiddie table at Thanksgiving because we're just all the, it's not like some of the kids like each other, where all the guest hosts hate each other.
It's like Eric Erickson is never Trump.
Mark Belling is, you know, pretty much not Trump.
And Rush is never Hillary.
And me, I would say I'm better disposed toward Trump than most of the other guest hosts.
So it's very unpleasant at the EIB guest host Christmas party, which we usually hold in early May because we can't get a booking in any of the, because, you know, the main EIB Christmas party is being held in December.
So we usually hold ours in early May.
So it's all very fractious as we dissolve into all this bitter infighting.
And I think however the election goes, in November, there are going to be a serious discussion of where the American right goes next.
And I said yesterday, which I think is the main people here talk about, it's very easy to get distracted by Trump the celebrity, Trump the figure, Trump's women, Trump's hair, all the rest of it.
But the fact is, Trump had an issue.
Everyone makes a joke about this guy when he entered the race in June, but in fact, he stuck the first real issue in the race when he brought up immigration.
He brought up the wall.
And on that issue, you know, all these people are saying never Trump, never Trump.
What are you going to bring to the party?
Trump is the symptom of how the gap between the guys who run the party and the base widened to the point where it became unbridgeable and made it ripe for a hostile takeover.
It's nothing to do with the hair.
It's nothing to do with the chicks.
They're bonuses, if you're interested in hair and chicks.
But it's to do with this core bedrock issue, which is that Trump said there's no need for mass illegal immigration.
The majority of the American people are opposed to mass immigration, particularly mass low-skilled immigration, but also the kind of high-skilled HB1 rackets or EB5 rackets that have just resulted in the collapse of two ski resorts.
In the Northeast Kingdom, as they call it, of Vermont, in Bernie Sanders' backyard, every town that isn't a ski resort is dead.
And the only two towns that are ski resorts, Jay and Mount Burke, have just collapsed because of an EB5 visa racket.
So people look, Trump had a real issue here.
And there's a bipartisan consensus that they're not going to do anything about immigration, that they're not serious about it.
That you have that all the politicians make gestures towards securing the border when it's an election year.
And then in the even-numbered years, they're all talking about securing the border.
And in the odd-numbered years, when they're not running for election, they're all talking about amnesty, gang of eight type deals.
That's the real issue.
And Mickey Kaus, who's a Democrat, Mickey Kaus has a fascinating piece at his website on how, as people are trying to explain how Trump stole the nomination from 16 highly qualified Republican senators,
governors, and all the rest of it, as they're trying to explain how Trump snaffled the nomination for these guys, none of the big newspaper analyses are mentioning the issue that catapulted him into the lead when he suddenly promised to build a wall and stop illegal immigration.
And so the question for Bill Crystal and Mike Murphy and the people who are solidly opposed to this guy is the easiest way to have driven a stake through him would have been to stolen that stole to steal that issue and get on the right side with your base.
So why didn't you steal that issue?
Why didn't you?
Hey, great to be with you.

Let us go to Sean in Exeter, New Hampshire.
Sean, that's kind of kiddy corner to me.
I'm in the northwest of the state, and you're in the southeast.
What's on your mind, Sean?
Well, Mark, today I'm sitting here listening to your show, and it's a little bit disheartening when I hear nothing but a Clinton and a Trump back and forth, especially when exit polls from everywhere ranging from RCP, PPP, and CNN all show, at least in a general election, a 10 to 16-point lead pointing towards Sanders.
As far as the Nevada convention goes, when you have a bunch of brown coats show up looking like Nazi SS, well, you know, there's going to be a little contention there.
Yeah, you're referring to, I like your characterization of the Democrat heavies.
You're a Democrat, I take it, Sean.
You're a Bernie supporter.
No, I'm a disabled veteran that's also an independent.
Okay, well, you're right on the numbers.
When you look at the Hillary Trump polls, it's kind of all 47, 43, 45, 42.
It's all in that ballpark.
It's like two, three, four, five points.
Well, you knew it was in that margin of a three, you know, one to three.
Yeah, and when you look at it with Bernie, it's kind of Bernie 52, Trump 38.
I think that's the most.
He came back almost, what it was, a 40 to 50 point deficit from when he hopped in the game.
Yeah, no, I don't, I'm not.
That's a movement of this.
No, I don't deny that.
I don't deny that at all.
I said last year when he entered, I think this was July, I got a piece of my website talking about Trump and Bernie.
This would be last July, noting Bernie's strength.
And I've always said my own view is that Bernie would be a much stronger candidate for the Democrats in the general election than Hillary is.
Hillary is then this gets beyond politics or political philosophy or partisanship of any kind.
The most important quality a candidate needs is he needs to connect with real human beings.
And that's.
Well, obviously, that's where Hillary cannot.
When she was just voted today, what was it, by she was the most corrupt politician?
What was that?
Who was that by?
That was judicial watchdog.
Just put that out today.
Or is he yesterday?
Right, right.
And it's, and it's, and, and, and they, the Democrats have an advantage in that they sometimes have a stiff candidate and they can drag him across the finish line.
Um, and it's not so easy on the Republican side to do that.
But there's no doubt, there's no doubt that when you just see Bernie Sanders with real life human beings, uh, that there's the crackle of electricity between them.
And there's no such thing when you see Hillary Clinton with them.
20 years ago, her husband connected with people.
She doesn't.
So it's even within families, it varies.
Everybody thought that Jeb Bush was the genius in the Bush family.
But as we learned last year, George W. Bush was the one who had an ability to connect with people, and Jeb Bush didn't.
And I think I agree with you that I think Bernie would be much tougher for Trump to beat in a general election.
And what is the striking feature, if you take the never Trump critique of what's happened in primary season, you could make the point that the net result of primary season has been to move both parties to the left.
Bernie Sanders has basically dramatically moved the Democrats to the left.
And to a certain extent, on issues like free trade and whatnot, Trump has done the same on the Republican side.
And the question here is: in a general election, how would that work out?
I mean, you could make the point that Bernie simply isn't as well known to Hillary, and that once they started looking into things like his wife running up so much debt at Burlington College that it's closing down next month, that maybe Bernie would start to get some high negatives.
But the fact is that Bernie would be a much more formidable candidate if the Democrats hadn't stacked the system and made it all but impossible to win.
They basically have these super democrats, what do they call superdelegates?
Yeah, and the superdelegates are basically the House of Lords of the Democratic Party.
They're this elite class of people who are there to prevent the emergence of a Bernie Sanders.
But right now, Sean, you say you're an independent.
Superdelegates, in my own view.
When I was in the military, I don't care if you are a lieutenant.
I don't care if you are a Master Chief.
Do your job.
Bottom line.
That's the point.
But in a voting process, you shouldn't have loaded votes.
It shouldn't be that you, Sean, get one vote for Bernie and a superdelegate, in effect, gets 40 votes for Hillary.
That's the problem that exists in the Democrat Party.
But at the moment, I mean, Sean, you say you're an independent.
So you vote.
Which primary did you vote in in New Hampshire in February?
Did you vote in the GOP or in the Democrat primary?
Well, I was, funny enough, I had to vote for Edo.
I voted for Sanders.
But while I was sitting there in my polling place, trust me, when I was disgruntled and I spoke with someone, I was like, listen, I go, what do you mean I can't vote as an independent?
You know, bottom line.
I'm like, I don't want to be thrown into a category of right foot, left foot.
It's still the same person up top that's going to be stepping on you.
Politics is just a shit.
Yeah, well, I'm sympathetic up to a point, Sean.
But I mean, the point about being an independent is you can't have an independent primary because being independent means there's no party.
So being independent means there's you.
So if you want to vote in a primary, you've got to vote in a party's primary, which is Republican or Democrat.
But thanks for your call.
Look, he's got a point about Bernie.
These polls do show Bernie is a far tougher candidate to beat.
And I'd just like to expand on that, what I was saying about the most important thing is whether you can connect with people.
Whether you, as a candidate, can connect with real life human beings.
Sean lives in Exeter, New Hampshire.
That's down in the southeast.
I'm up in the Northwest.
It doesn't really matter where you are in New Hampshire.
For one year in every four, you have every potential president of the United States crawling around your neighborhood.
And even if you have no interest in politics, you bump into them at the county fair, in the diner, glad-handing you, even if you don't want to be glad-handed.
I mentioned my daughter and her friend went to the county fair and they got hit on by Lindsey Graham, which is, you know, there's a lot of things.
It's stressful when you're the father of a teenage girl, but one of the things you think you don't have to worry about is that your daughter's going to get hit on by Lindsey Graham.
You know, these are the you can't avoid meeting these candidates when you live in New Hampshire.
And the first thing you notice is who connects with people.
That spark, that spark, that crackle, where they're interested in you as a human being.
If they follow politics closely, they might know that, you know, Mike Huckabee is a social conservative and Rand Paul is more of a libertarian and Donald Trump is a populist and Marco Rubio is closer to a Bush foreign policy interventionist and relaxed on immigration type.
You don't know about any of those categories when you just encounter them.
What you're interested in is whether they connect with you as a human being.
And Mitt Romney didn't make that connection.
He really didn't.
He just simply didn't.
And the reason why the 47% remark was damaging to him was because it confirmed the stereotype of him as a wealthy man who didn't connect with ordinary people where they live.
And that's the biggest danger of this whole business, that you give the impression that you don't live where they have to live, that you don't live in their world.
And that's the impression these Beltway types are saying.
They're saying, we spent $100 million $100 million, $100 million on Jeb Bush, and these ingrate rubees out in the styx didn't go for it.
So we'll need another, we're going to need another, we're going to need $200 million.
We're going to build an even bigger super PAC and then we'll find some cookie-cutter candidate, stiff, sock puppet, that will stick our hand up.
And if we spend $200 million, this time it'll work.
And it's nothing to do with that.
It's nothing to do with that.
Bernie Sanders had nothing going for him when he got in the race, except for the fact that he, without any party apparatus, he'd become a United States senator, which ought to tell you that he knows something about connecting with people.
And likewise, a lot of these, a lot of the problems that Republicans, Democrats can drag a stiff over the finish line if they have to.
They did it with John Kerry.
John Kerry at the time in 2004 got more votes than any Democrat had ever got in any election ever, even though he was a completely incompetent candidate.
He couldn't go into a Wendy's and order a cheeseburger without sounding like he was an alien from planet Zongo.
The most important thing is whether you can connect with people as a human being.
And I don't care.
That's why this whole thing now, this third-party thing is we've got a great third-party operation.
We've got the consultants in place.
We've got the donors.
We've got the Republican intellectual class in place.
We've got everything we need except insert name of candidate here.
That's what got you in this mess in the first place.
I am a strong conservative.
I believe that, as Mrs. Thatcher used to say, the facts of life are conservative.
I believe in small government, not because I think that small government is an end in itself, but because it enables big liberty.
And the minute you have big government, you wind up with very small liberty.
Big government crowds everything out of the space, which is why we now have a national commissar of bathrooms in a nation of 300 million people.
A national commissar of bathrooms, which is a complete absurdity.
So that more and more areas of life the government is simply extending its tentacles further and further into.
I am a small government conservative.
I believe in Western civilization.
I believe we are facing the end of Western civilization.
And I believe that in the other half of the free world in Western Europe, we are about to witness the implosion of some of the oldest nation-states on the planet.
Sweden, which is one of the wealthiest and most progressive nations on earth, is about to implode under its insane migration policies.
This is serious business.
This is serious business.
And it ought to have been possible, it ought to have been possible for a functioning party to find a strong, principled, conservative candidate who took all the right positions on these issues and at the same time had that human connection with people,
that human connection that enthralls an audience and makes them feel that the candidate understands them, relates to them, knows them where they live, is not a tourist in the broken down townships of America, but understands the reality of the lives they live.
And that's not a partisan, as I said to Sean in Exeter.
That's not a partisan thing.
You can have that on both sides.
Hillary doesn't have it.
She's a stiff.
She's an appalling candidate.
She has no political antennae whatsoever.
And so, if the reaction when you're going up against Hillary Clinton is to think the answer to the challenge of Hillary Clinton is $100 million on Jeb Bush, you deserve to lose every cent of that $100 million.
It's not the Republican base that are the rubes and suckers.
The guys who gave $100 million to Mike Murphy are the real rubes and suckers.
Mark Seinforrush, more straight ahead.
Hey, Mark Steining for Rush.
You know, I was talking about the EIB guest host Christmas party, which we hold early in May because we're not allowed into the main EIB Christmas party in December.
And I was wondering where Jason Lewis was.
If you remember, Jason Lewis used to be a big-time guest host for Rush.
And he's running for Congress and he's just been endorsed by the Minnesota Republican Party.
So Jason Lewis, former EIB guest host, might actually be in Congress starting in January.
So we certainly wish him well because it gives me high hopes of my campaign to be governor of New Hampshire.
You never know how it will go.
So we congratulate Jason on getting that endorsement.
And will he be the first EIB guest host to make it into Congress?
I mentioned that today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia.
Target, as you know, Target introduced their whatever it was, their transgender bathroom policy, and their stock has continued to tumble.
They were the ones who said you get to use any bathroom that you want.
You're not like this poor woman who was mistaken for a transgendered woman and kicked out of the ladies' room in Walmart.
In Target, in Target, whatever you look like, you can go into whatever bathroom you want.
And one consequence of that, or at least it's happened since they announced this policy, is that their stock has tumbled, which is something to consider on this International Day against transphobia.
I'm not sure what the answer is on this whole bathroom business.
You know, I don't know that there's a correct answer to it.
My own view is that in the end, all of us, every citizen, will have to have a mandatory government-installed catheter that comes out in the Attorney General's office in Washington.
I think that's really the only way we're going to settle this whole transgendered bathroom issue.
Mark Stein, in for us, more ahead.
Hey, Mark Stein, in for us on the EIB network.
The Senate this very morning has just approved legislation, just passed a law that allows the families of the 9-11 victims to sue the government of Saudi Arabia.
You remember that this is the law that the Obama administration was threatening to veto because it thought it would expose Americans overseas to legal risks.
Nevertheless, the Senate has overwhelmingly passed by voice vote, which means that a lot of Democrats backed the bill as well as Republicans, a law that will allow the families of the 9-11 victims to sue the government of Saudi Arabia.
If you recall, the Saudis provided 15 of the 19 terrorists that day who all got in on absolutely absurd paperwork in which they gave their address in the United States as holiday in America.
And the United States government admitted them into the country to blow up and kill 3,000 Americans on September the 11th.
And they will now have the right, the families of those victims, to sue the government of Saudi Arabia for what may be a larger role in the events of that day.
