Time Text
Yes, America's anchor man is away for a few days having a well deserved break this week, and this is your undocumented anchor man.
Honored to be here direct from far northern New Hampshire at Ice Station EIB.
Just a stones throw from the Canadian border, not that uh Canadians are the sort that ever throw stones, so you don't have to worry about that.
Uh but if you're fleeing the country, uh do swing by and say hello, you can't miss us as a big sign saying uh right on the highway they're saying last guest host before the border, last guest host before the border.
You can't miss us.
Um there's a story, you know, I was talking about this insanity of John Kerry's borderless world, John Kerry's borderless world, which means basically that everyone will be moving to North America, Europe and uh Australia and a couple of other places.
Um that's actually insane, because that's the insofar as there is any global peace and security, it's borders that ensure that it happens.
Why why do people think a borderless world is is a good thing?
They basically created a border.
Libya was a the pilot program for John Kerry and Hillary Clinton's borderless world, because uh they toppled the uh Libyan government, so the Libyan government can't enforce its borders, so ISIS poured in, uh control the ports, and ISIS are now uh running uh all the refugees across the Mediterranean into uh Italy and into Europe.
So that's a g that's a preview of what the borderless world will be like, a complete implosion.
Why do people say and I'm honestly if you're a liberal and you hear this phrase borderless world and you think it means it's nice because uh your daughter once did some foreign exchange thing in uh Switzerland and it all seemed very pleasant out there.
The call me and tell me what you like about this phrase the borderless world, because it's something that actually ought to strike terror into people, a borderless world, a borderless world, life in a borderless world will be nasty brutish and short.
Here's a headline from the Borderless World.
The pilot program uh for the for the borderless world in advanced countries is currently going on in Germany.
It's Angela Merkel's experiment that she's doing there.
Headline Migrants burn down asylum center after not receiving Ramadan wake up call.
So these guys they didn't get the wake the wake up call for Ramadan, and so they burnt down the refugee center.
That's that's the the nub of the story.
And in in fairness, you know, it's easy to say, oh these crazy guys, they uh you don't give them the wake up call and they go full Allah Akbar and burn down the joint.
But in fact, when it's Ramadan when it's Ramadan, and uh is it just me or does Ramadan seem to come around earlier every year?
I don't know, it's funny how that happens.
But uh but Ramadan, you have to you can't eat between sunrise and sunset.
So when Ramadan falls in July, it's hell because they're the long they're the longest days of the year.
So you want your wake up call because you have you want something to eat because you're not going to get anything else to eat until nine thirty, ten o'clock at night.
So these guys don't get the Ramadan wake up call and they burn down the refugee center.
Uh and that's just the bones of the story.
But when you actually read on into it, uh it gets even nuttier.
A massive fire at Dusseldorf's major international trade fair grounds.
Uh this this is where the refugee center was.
So this is one of the biggest international trade fair grounds in the developed world, in Dusseldorf in Germany.
And they decide to turn it into a refugee camp.
And now the grateful refugees have burned the joint down.
So they're gonna find it difficult to hold any international trade fairs there again.
So so much for German international trade.
But then when you look at it, what's actually going on at this uh international trade fair grounds where they're holding this thing and they burn uh they're holding all these so-called refugees.
There've been conflicts between the predominantly Arab refugees and a small number of Afghan refugees who side with the security staff that the Germans hired to run the facility.
And who did the Germans hire to run the facility?
They hired Iranians.
Right?
Now this is what the clever people this is, by the way, so let's take it as read that when Trump starts talking about his judge and how John Kasich eats pizza and whether or not Ted Cruz's father was on the grassy knoll with Lee Harvey Oswald.
Let's let's put all that to one side and let's listen to what the smart people say and what the smart people do.
The smart people hire Iranians, right?
That's your first mistake, hiring Iranians.
Why would you hire Iranians to run your prison system?
They got some great prisons over there, but they they're the kind of prisons where you get questioned to death.
They're not the kind of guys you hire to run prisons in in uh an advanced society.
So they hire these Iranians to run this refugee facility.
Iranians, Persians hate Arabs, Arabs hate Persians.
Anyone who isn't deluded with the fluffy bunny uh stuff, anyone who doesn't have a uh uh uh isn't doesn't get triggered by people talking about uh talking about Mexican heritage knows the facts of life.
Persians, Arabs, Arabs, Persians, there's conflicts there.
Why would you hire Persians to look after a bunch of Arabs?
So the Persians don't wake up the Arabs in time for the big Ramadan all you can eat breakfast buffet so now the poor old Arabs have to starve until nine thirty at night so they burn down the refugee facility and destroy one of the most prestige trade fair conference centers on the planet.
That's what the smart people do.
The smart people let one point one million Muslim young men into Germany and then hire Iranians to run the facilities that house them.
And that's that's the that is what has happened that is what has happened to one degree or another around the entire developed world and to go back to what Debbie was saying I think the issue here is very simple in this election.
I think it's betrayal.
I think it's betrayal.
And it's hard to get over betrayal.
As any of you who've been in some poisonous marriage in its death spiral will know, betrayal is the one thing that is very hard to overcome.
And that's how the Republican base and large numbers of other Americans, including apparently from the Bernie Sanders things, large number of Democrats, that's how they feel about the permanent political class, the permanent political class, that it's betrayal.
They actually feel these people have betrayed them.
And they looked for somebody.
They wanted somebody who didn't sound as if he was going to betray them.
And he might be right on that.
They might be right on that.
And they might be wrong on that.
But they know, they don't know with this guy what they're going to get.
But they know what they're getting with Mitch McConnell.
They know what they're getting with Mitch McConnell.
they're getting with Paul Ryan, they know what they're getting with that brand of Republican Party, and they don't want it.
And the idea, with respect to all these smart people who are now saying, oh, well, you know, Trump's remarks about this judge from Indiana, the Mexican heritage guy, that completely disqualifies him, so we're going to ask all these delegates to toss him out, and we're going to find someone else.
And you can do that, but you're generals without armies.
You have all the qualities of leadership except followers.
Paul Ryan, doing his Hamlet routine for weeks on the battlements, saying to endorse or not to endorse, that is the question.
Nobody's interested.
Nobody's interested.
You've got all the qualities of a guy who lost a debate to Joe Biden.
He's now the conscience of conservatism.
You've got all the qualities of leadership except followers.
And that's, I'm sorry to be blunt about it, but a essentially that's what the DC establishment uh did to itself and it worked out pretty nice.
If you've got a think tank, if you've got a magazine that's bankrolled by uh some nice sugar daddies it's worked out swell for you.
Uh I'll give you a good example.
David French at the National Review, who was the great white hope and was supposedly going to be the n you know our next president in waiting the guy Bill Crystal picked to be the next president to do the big third party run.
And uh and he was he thought about it for a week.
He spent last week in Vermont thinking about it and strategizing with the finest minds that Bill Crystal and Mitt Romney could find.
And I was reading about this inside the third party campaign of David French.
This guy, he's a fine writer, he's a fine man, uh, and I have no problem with David French at all, except that I think the idea of him running for president is ridiculous.
But if he wants to give it a go, that's fine.
Where he went in Vermont to spend a week, he spent a week at the play farm of a wealthy uh Mitt Romney Backer in Woodstock, Vermont.
Uh uh this quiet hamlet, I think was the way the National Review lady put it.
It's not a quiet hamlet, it's a sheeshy little upscate uh upscale resort town where all the wealthiest people in the Northeast have their little play farms, like this little play farm that David French hold up in.
And I wouldn't mind, but if he'd driven an hour in almost any direction, he could have gone to real towns, real farm towns, real hamlets.
He could have gone to Sheffield, Vermont, where they've got real broken down working loser farms.
Uh they have this thing called Field Day, I think it's every Labor Day, and I hadn't been for a few years, and uh took my kids uh to it uh last year.
And we arrived there, and the last time I was there I'd been talking to the lady who uh w organized uh the the the the uh concert where uh everyone does all the old time fiddling and all that kind of thing.
I had a nice conversation with her.
I couldn't have a conversation with her this time round, because she'd been killed, murdered, after discovering uh the lads next door were running a meth lab.
That's a real farm, not the pretend farm of a Mitt Romney bundler that David French stayed in.
You could have gone to Barry, used to be the granite capital of Vermont.
Now it's uh now that's just hollowed out by drugs.
There's no granite uh to work, no granite quarries anymore, it's just nothing going on there.
The two ski resorts, uh, they've gone uh belly up uh in a uh EB five uh visa scandal where they got uh rich guys from China to give them money for green cards, and then they blew through all the money and uh uh and now the uh they're they're in they've been closed down and they're undergoing some big huge uh federal uh investigation.
So the two towns that weren't dead have gone.
And this is this is why didn't why don't all these people instead of hauling up at your little play farm in Woodstock, Vermont, uh where even the McDonald's has some pre-aged wood shingle outside instead of your usual plastic golden arches,
instead of instead of holding up in fake heritage theme park colonial America, why don't you actually drive an hour north, south, east or west and see what the rest of the place looks like, and you might actually understand what it's like uh when you have to live in the world that all the smart people have made for you,
when all the smart people who talk about a borderless world, when all the smart people who let in one point one uh million Muslim young men uh and then hire Iranian security personnel to look after them, when all the smart people uh have done the damage,
uh and you look at the ruins uh of of what life is as more and more people slip out of the middle as you look at America bifurcating into this little closed world where all the people who run everything, all the people who matter live, and the ruins they're increasingly making everywhere else.
That's where you sh if you want to hold up at a farm for a week, I can show you a farm, I can show you I can I can show you four dozen farms round here where you get a completely different view of life than if you hole up for a farm with m uh on a farm with Mitt Romney bundlers in Woodstock, Vermont.
Uh these guys in the Beltway need to get real.
They're the problem.
This is not this Trump is not an action.
Trump is a reaction, and what he's a reaction to is you guys.
You guys who loused everything up.
Mark Stein for Rush will take your call straight ahead.
Hey, Mark Stein in Farush.
Let's go to Nick in uh Walla Walla, because you can never have enough wallers.
Walla Walla Walla in uh Washington, uh one of my favorite town names.
Uh great to have you with us on the show, Nick.
Thank you, sir.
It's a pleasure to be on with you today.
And uh this two walls, walla walla, yeah, two but um yeah, I think uh Hugh Hewitt is on to something that but I don't think it's there's gonna be a white knight riding in to save the Republican Party from uh in Cleveland, it's gonna be up to the non Trump delegates to decide whether or not they can uh support this candidate and uh because uh if people have been paying attention to these conventions that have been going on during the primary season,
they'll notice that the crew delegates have been mopping up the floor uh at these conventions racking up the delegates going to Cleveland, and just like twenty twelve the Romney delegates controlled that convention, the cruise delegates be can be controlling this convention, which means that the rules will be in their favor and also the platform.
And so if there's if anybody's gonna beat Donald Trump in Cleveland, it's not gonna be Paul Ryan or Scott Walker or whoever, it's gonna be Ted Cruz.
Because uh the delegates will have the final say of this.
Now what you're referring there to the fact is uh they have the primaries in certain states in uh on uh in in February or whatever, and then uh a few weeks later they meet and they get the delegates who are actually gonna physically gonna go.
You know, go to the right.
But look here here yeah, I understand your point.
These and these and these are guys who are s who are supporting uh uh who who are basically supporters of Ted Cruz, but are obliged on the first vote under the rules to cast a uh a vote for uh Trump because he won whichever state it was.
That's the that's the rules.
And the scenario the here's the problem, Nick, is that the scenario uh you propose would have worked swell uh a hundred and fifty years ago.
But in the modern era uh we now undergo this vast uh circus of actual uh democratic uh uh voting by ordinary citizens that uh determines who the delegates supports.
So on what basis should those guys discount how the votes went in whichever state?
It goes to the rules of the convention because they're really there's a No no no, I know I know the rate No no, let me finish.
There's a lot of debate that the delegates can vote their conscience.
There is no RNC rule that states they have to be bound to whatever state their primary voted on.
And because i and it makes sense in the in this year particularly when uh over sixteen million people have voted against Trump and he's only gotten around a little over eleven, eleven and a half million.
So the the people the will of the people are w if cruise.
Okay, Nick, Nick, Nick, let just let me ask you on that point.
You said there that uh eleven million people voted for Trump, sixteen million voted against him.
I don't know what the latest score is, but let's just stick with your numbers.
Uh a um a smaller number voted for Ted Cruz and an even larger number voted against him.
So what's the argument for picking Ted Cruz?
Well you could go back into the w since if go back to f the start of the primary season on February first, and you look at all the candidates that you know had come and gone, low supporters that already maybe already voted for a candidate, went on board the the cruise campaign, volunteered for cruise, donated to crews, uh whatever.
I think if you look at the m mass vast majority of s those sixteen million people that voted against Trump, I think they would support Cruz over Trump in in the in the in a nomination.
Well, you you think that, but the f you're what you say is technically doable.
Uh but but right now we're talking about a Republican party that can't find that can't talk Mitt Romney who's loaded.
I mean, basically he ran last time as Daddy Warbucks, so he can afford to run.
Uh so he he's he's there, he's got the money, he's got the organization.
They can't talk him into running.
They can't talk David French into running.
Why do you think suddenly they're gonna talk the entire Republican party into tossing out the guy who won the primary?
If you look at the if you go back to my numbers and you go back to the rhetoric that Trump has been uh spewing, I think he's just alienating every base of the party.
I mean, he's alienated every major demographic group in this country.
I mean, he's gonna un he's unfavorable with with Latinos, he's unfavorable with uh with women, and on and on and on.
He's just making himself he's just digging himself deeper and deeper.
Well well, you know if th it's not gonna happen, Nick.
And w regardless of whether you want it to happen or whether you don't want it to happen, it's not gonna happen.
Because these guys for a start, they don't have that that those kind of cajonies.
We gotta we gotta we gotta take a break, uh, but I'll pick this pick this up because I'm I'm amazed.
Mr. Snardley sent me this thing today from the hill.
There's still time for another third party option.
Yeah, the cavalry are just over the hill, folks.
I I think I see a horse now.
Yes, America's anchor man is taking a few days off, but you need never know that.
If you go to Rush Limbaugh dot com, uh you'll find everything uh there if you become a Rush 247 subscriber.
But if you haven't got a Father's Day gift yet for your beloved par, then this is just what he wants, a rush twenty-four-seven subscription.
If he's uh if he's got his old uh radio there and he's frantically tuning the dial and he can't understand why Russia's voice sounds so funny and he's hurling it through the window, forget about it.
Go to Rushlimbore.com and get him a rush twenty-four seven subscription for Father's Day, and he can listen to Rush uh any time of the day or night that tickles his fancy.
We have uh breaking news, well, kind of breaking news for the uh for the uh for the Bernie Sanders fans among the audience, and I gather that's like about eighty-seven percent of you.
Um so as you know, last night uh Hillary sealed the deal.
She's now the first woman.
Actually, I I'm so old fashioned uh and bigoted.
I should say she's the first person to identify as a woman uh to win a presidential nomination of a major party.
So congratulations to Hillary, the first person to identify as a woman to win the nomination of a major party.
And Bernie Sanders, her rival, is uh gonna be holding a rally at Burlington Airport in Vermont, uh his hometown, Burlington Airport.
Uh if you want to go to this, by the way, it's at Heritage Aviation.
Uh and I believe that's where the little flights I c I think I landed there a few weeks.
I flew in from Toronto, the Toronto flights.
You land at the main airport, and then because you've come from a a foreign country and they have to crack down on security if you've been to Toronto, they drive you off to this little shed miles from the main airport where uh homeland security hold you for hours and an end and eventually release you onto uh whatever that's called, whatever that road's called.
Is it Williston Road?
They release you onto Williston Road in the middle of nowhere, no taxis.
Wondering how the hell you can get back to the airport parking lot.
Anyway, that's where Bernie the streets are all right ready lining with Bernie Sanders fans.
And the associated announcing a rally for the next step.
But this is the this is the thing, Mr. Snardly.
The associated press has warned reporters to be safe after harassment from Bernie Sadners fans.
So if a an AP reporter goes to goes to a Trump rally and he's called a sleaze by Trump, uh it's outrage.
But w it's an outrage, it's disgraceful, and uh how dare he treat the press like that.
But but uh but the AP is warning the Associated Press is warning its reporters to stay vigilant after several received harassing messages from supporters of Democratic president ca presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.
Danny Spriggs, the AP's vice president for global security.
By the way, have you ever heard a more stupid title in your life?
The AP's vice president for global security.
I'd love to see that business card.
Danny Spriggs said sub-reporters have received angry emails, social media messages, and phone calls after the AP declared Hillary Clinton the presumptive democratic presidential nominee.
So if you're in the vicinity of uh whatever this is called, what's it called?
Heritage Aviation Terminal uh on Williston Road in Burlington, Vermont today for the Bernie Sanders rally.
If you're an AP reporter heading there, AP wants you to be safe because the streets are full.
Generation Snowflake is gonna be rampaging down the street.
They're gonna they're they're going to be the they go they're going to be the the whole thing, the sandals and patchouli, they're gonna be beating the hell out of you.
Uh be careful.
You might want to take some plexiglass shields, stay behind the Robocop lines because the special snowflakes, Generation Snowflake, is determined to exact its revenge on the Associated Press for delivering the Democrat primary nomination to Madame Mao.
Things are heating up in things are heating up in this uh in in this fractious election season.
And uh that is that is the latest news on the Bernie front.
So Bernie Sanders could be making a special announcement.
A special announcement today.
He's mad he's mad with the AP because th this is how uh this is how bad a candidate Hillary Clinton is.
And if I were Hillary, I'd be furious because the likely result is she would have won more narrowly in California.
And now everyone thinks the AP stole California from Bernie Sanders.
Which they probably uh didn't didn't need to do.
I think it was what was it uh they used to say about the LAPD, uh a police department so in g what was the joke at the time of the OJ trial, a police department so incompetent they couldn't frame a guilty man.
Uh the AP is so incompetent.
Uh they can't even uh proclaim Hillary uh a victor for a race she uh had won.
They jumped the gun, and now the Bernie fans, all the special snowflakes are determined to hunt down the AP reporter.
If you see a special snowflake, if you're in Burlington, Vermont, and you see the special snowflake, some of them are wearing the pajamas.
They stand out like 'cause they got the pyjama boy look like the British redcoats, so they stand out against the fields, the cows, the mountains, and all the rest of it.
You can spot the special snowflakes coming.
Uh and they also have these these kind of little wispy beards, these uh these kind of very little you know the special snowflake uh it's like a little wispy beard where like most of the hair doesn't grow at all, but nine strands go very long.
And so if they get close to you to slug you, you probably won't feel the punch, but the like getting tickled by these nine little strands of the little wispy special snowflakes beard.
It can be like a really nasty paper cut, you know.
So you might like it'll be itching all day if he tickles you with the special snowflake wispy beard.
Uh and you might uh and you might find like a rash breaks out three days later there 'cause uh 'cause he's been sleeping in a commune or something.
Uh so you want to be careful.
If you're an AP reporter out there, the AP has now issued uh a code red security alert for its reporters to be safe uh if uh they're in the presence of Bernie Sanders fans at this big rally today.
Who knew?
I thought I thought Trump was supposed to be the new Hitler.
Now we've got special snowflake pajama boy brown shirts.
That is a first.
That is a first in history.
That's uh, you know, the the wispy little beard, the pajaba boy, the pajaba boy bread.
I've never no this brown shirts, there's black shirts, I've never heard of these pajama shirts.
This is a new thing.
But they're telling the AP is warning, warning reporters to be safe uh at the big uh from Bernie Sanders uh Bernie Sanders fans today.
Um I want to go back to all that uh fascinating stuff uh we were hearing from uh Nick in um Walla Walla Walla Walla in uh Washington And it it and I know people are reluctant to give up on it to give up on it.
But you know you've had this for months now.
First of all, they said to you Bill Crystal, God bless him, has been reliably wrong about everything on this.
Uh first he said that uh Trump would be gone before he wasn't he'd be gone in a few weeks.
Then he said Trump uh wouldn't win a single primary.
Uh then he says he's about to announce uh a fantastic, credible third party independent candidate, and the he the third party independent candidate he decided to anoint, spend a week at a farm in Vermont, and then decided he didn't want to do it.
And now we're told that, oh, under Rule 37 C the delegates at this uh at this convention are gonna feel free uh not to uh choose Trump as the nominee of the party.
It isn't gonna happen.
It isn't gonna happen.
God almighty, when is the convention?
Do you know what date the convention is?
Is it July?
July someday in July?
Yeah.
Well, you really want to spend a month talking about something like this, because it's like gonna be like all the other stuff that didn't happen.
It's gonna be like all the other stuff that didn't happen.
In the end, a an unusual, an unusual candidate has won has won this party's contest.
And there's only two parties, and there's only Hillary the only two people who can become president of the United States in January next year are Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump.
All this nonsense.
I I can't tell you th this thing that this uh that uh Mr. Snerdley sent me from the Hill.
There's still time for another third party option.
Uh and we hear all we hear all this stuff.
Th there might be from Bernie, particularly now that the snowflakes are mad.
There might be a huge snowflake army, and they could get the snowflake party on the ballot.
They said, well you need at least uh uh a guest host of this program, Eric Ericsson, I think, uh did the numbers and said you need two hundred and fifty million dollars just for ballot challenges just for ballot I'm sorry.
We might we might have to go to uh song for my cat album.
I don't know that I can read this with a straight face.
You need two hundred and fifty million dollars for ballot challenges.
And the snowflake party could do that, because they've got like all these Hollywood uh people like Susan Sarandon.
Uh so Bernie could form the Snowflake Party and mount a ballot challenge in Texas and everywhere else, and he could he could do it.
But the idea that uh th which we've been in we've been in this situation now for a weeks, they can't find anybody who wants to run.
And the idea that under Rule 37 C or whatever the hell it is, that the that the Republican Party delegates, when the whole dynamic of this season has been that the base of the party, the schlubs, the nobodies, the losers who go out and vote for the party feel they've bit been betrayed by all the people living high off the hog on the party, the ones who get to jet around in the private planes.
You know, people say, why doesn't Trump uh talk about uh why didn't he talk about the poor jobs numbers?
Uh you know, there were only thirty-eight thousand new jobs created, and he could have hammered Obama with that.
Well, uh th the reason there were only thirty-eight thousand new jobs created uh is because there were four hundred thousand Republican Party consultants who got laid off last month, who nobody needs anymore.
Nobody needs them.
Nobody needs any of these people.
Because some guy has just come along and broken every single rule and somehow wound up holding the trophy.
And and and whatever one feels about that, and I say this with respect to Mark Belling and Hugh Hewitt and all the other people, uh he th these are the rules of the game.
There's only two pe there's only two parties.
There's only two parties.
And when you only have two parties, that means they're coalitions uh of interests.
Because they obviously don't represent the full spectrum of views.
You can't if you've only got two parties, you can't be in one hundred percent agreement on everything.
And so this party, Trump is not a Republican, he's not a conservative, but he's the guy who's who's won this spot on the ticket.
He's in the final round on one of the two places.
And so the trick is to make that ticket, because there's the Hillary ticket, which Bernie's uh the the sensible side of Bernie's supporters are now gonna make the Hillary ticket a coalition of cronyism and socialism, because that works well in Venezuela.
So Hillary is the uh cronyist, and the Bernie supporters will provide the socialism and they'll have a crony socialist coalition.
And on the uh other side, Trump Trump Trump What's that, Mr. Surley?
Oh Ms. Dred you Ted look, Ted Cru Ted Cruz is Ted Cruz still in the race.
I don't you know this this this is this is you know, you know, the first rule of show business, the first rule of show business.
Frank Sinatra used to say this.
You should always listen very carefully when the people are telling you goodbye.
And you d and and and you don't take three months to get off the stage.
You don't take three months.
So we're gonna have a crony socialist coalition on one side, and we're gonna have a Trump and if the Republicans are smart, they'll have a Trump Republican coalition on the other side, in which they'll try and surround him with solid key core.
The Republican Party is a coalition anyway.
It's a coalition between your butch types like Ted Cruz and your squishes like Susan Collins.
And so it's a Ted Cruz Susan Collins coalition.
And on the whole, more often than not, things go Susan Collins' way than Ted Cruz's way.
So you've got so the idea that the the Republican Party, which is already a butch squish coalition, uh can somehow uh can uh uh has now been excluded from the number two pot spot on the ticket, and you've got to try and make it a Trump Republican coalition ticket.
But they're the only two tickets into the next phase of American decline.
Whoops.
That's not what I meant to say.
I think they're the only two tickets out of here.
And uh Hillary is the certainty of cronyism, of corruption, of bullying, of more and more of this d vile identity politics uh where it's just shoved down your throat, and Trump is offering a path out of that.
Uh ticket out of that.
So Republicans can attach themselves, they can get a giant paper clip and attach themselves by their butt to his coattails.
Uh but otherwise all this third party stuff knocked down anyway.
Mark Steinfarus, more ahead.
Mark Stein for Rush, let's go to Suzanne in the cryptically named Greater Detroit area.
Suzanne, great to have you with us.
Thank you.
Good to talk to you.
I um I'm trying to be a good American citizen and learn from our president, and I understand now that gender is very pliable and male and female.
It's that's old school.
So I'm wondering why it's a big deal that Hillary is being declared the first female candidate.
Yeah, no, no, you're right.
Well, you're right, gender is very pliable.
Uh Hillary's husband has plied it awful over the years.
Um but uh uh so you you're you're you think you're you are dissenting from the Madeline Albright view that there's a special place in hell for women like you, Suzanne, who don't support other women.
Um I didn't think there was such a thing anymore.
And I'm uh has Hillary declared herself a woman?
She's she identifies as a woman, and that's what matters.
Well, I I just I her face her her clothing, her voice.
I I struggle, but um Yeah, it it's just a difficult thing for me to I it's confusing.
It's hard to find it.
Well I tell you, uh well, as you say, Suzanne, we are in the po it shouldn't matter.
I mean, this is like it why it was last season's thing.
In 2008, it would have been a big deal.
Uh now we've all moved on, anyone can be the the uh all Alaskan uh all state uh ladies track champion is a uh is a person who identifies as a woman but is flying the old uh uh wedding tackle, the old meat and two veg when she runs around the track, got male genitalia.
So the ladies' track champion in Alaska and all the girls, these these pathetic bio girls as they call them now, these cis women are making a fuss out.
Well, I don't know.
Surely somewhere uh I would love to see.
I I uh while we're just like brainstorming here, uh we need to get uh Trump to put Caitlin Jenner uh on the vice presidential ticket, because I think that absolutely this idea that that there's a glass ceiling, what matters is now is how you identify.
I wouldn't mind if I'm at the men's room at the White House and Hillary wants to come in and stand next to me.
Go ahead.
You can identify as anything.
You've uh you've you've explained you've you've correctly explained, Suzanne, why it seems why the whole vibe of the Hillary campaign is like it's last decades thing.
It's really too late to be excited.
Even if you could get excited about Hillary, uh it it is too late to be excited by it.
But you are absolutely right, she does identify as a woman, Uh and uh she is uh she is the first person to be nominated as such.
We'll be back in just a moment.
A woman named Titi Pierce is suing Ellen de Generis uh over making a n a joke about her name.
It's apparently called Titi.
She's apparently called Titi Pierce, but Ellen pronounced it Titi Pierce, and so this woman is now going to trial, and that will be like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed or Trump University.
