Welcome to today's edition of The Rush 247 Podcast.
And greetings to you, music lovers, thrill seekers, conversationalists all across the fruited playing time for the Rush Limbaugh program.
Three hours of the day, the only time during the day where life makes sense.
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida.
It's open live Friday.
Yes to rebob 800-282-2882.
If you want to be on the program, the email address, L Rushmore at EIBNet.us.
That is a new email address.

Okay, so according to a writer at the Huffing and Puffington Post, the guy who used to run Al Gore's TV network, Al Gores TV Network.
Anybody remember the name of Al Gore's TV Network?
Current TV, it then became Al Jazeera TV.
Al Jazeera bought Al Gore's network.
And of course, everybody says it's kind of crazy because Al Gore and global warming and climate change and anti-fossil fuels, and who did he sell out to?
Al Jazeera is cutter, which is an oil state.
Anyway.
A guy that used to run Al Gore's TV network, current TV, named Michael Rosen, uh Rosen, is it Strozen Bloom on Twitter?
Has a piece at the Huffing and Puffington Post.
Donald Trump is going to be elected.
The election is over.
Nobody knows it yet because nobody knows how to look at this.
His thesis is Donald Trump's going to be elected.
The American people voted for him a long time ago.
They voted for him when reality TV swept the nation.
When the History Channel went from showing documentaries about World War II to pawn stars and swamp people.
They voted for Trump when the Discovery Channel went from showing lost treasures of the Yankee Valley to naked and afraid.
They voted for Trump when the Learning Channel moved from something you could learn from to my 600 pound life.
They voted for him when CBS went from airing Harvest of Shame to airing Big Brother and King of Queens.
These networks didn't make these programming changes by accident.
They're responding to what the American people actually wanted.
And what they wanted was Naked and Afraid and Duck Dynasty.
And all of these real housewives of every damn city in the country.
The polls may show that Donald Trump is losing to Hillary Clinton, but don't believe the polls.
When the A.C. Nielsen company selects a new Nielsen family, and I did not know this, by the way.
And there are only about 1,200 Nielsen families nationwide.
Did you know that?
TV ratings are based on 1,200 households.
At any rate.
Well, they've had to make some modifications to try to rate, you know, they they they go to DirecTV and TiVo and they try to get ratings from people delayed watch and so forth.
But the Nielsen TV ratings are basically 1,200 families.
And when they sign up a new family, they ignore what that family watches for the first three months.
The reason they do is because the family tunes into PBS and all kinds of stuff they think is highbrow to impress the Nielsen people.
It's kind of like a reverse Wilder effect or a reverse Bradley effect.
In other words, you tell the pollster you're voting the black guy when you have no intention of voting for the black guy just so the pollster doesn't think you're racist.
Well, apparently this happens with TV ratings.
You get you get the Nielsen box, and by the way, you the box connects and it records what you watch.
There's no way to fake it.
So you have to watch what you want reported to Nielsen.
And they ignore a new family for the first three months because they're watching junk.
They're watching PBS.
They're watching all this highbrow stuff, opera, you name it.
And so they ignore it for the first three months because after the first three months, the Nielsen families then settle in and begin to watch what they actually watch, because people lie what they're watching in the first three months.
After three months of watching PBS and live from the Kennedy Center, they go back to the Kardashians.
Same goes for people who are being asked by pollsters for whom they are voting.
They'll not say Trump.
It's too embarrassing, but the truth is they like Trump.
Trump is just like their favorite TV show.
Trump is their favorite TV show.
The campaign is their favorite TV show.
And things like what happened yesterday just make it even better.
Here's Hillary out saying that Trump is a racist.
And Trump responds, no, you're a bigot.
It's a food fight.
The presidential campaign has become reality TV to the low information voters.
In fact, one of the most controversial aspects of the presidential campaign has become.
Did Hillary Clinton rig opening a can of pickles on the Jimmy Kimmel show earlier this week?
A major controversy has erupted.
Kimmel had her on.
She was going to prove that she's strong enough to be president.
So he brings out a jar of pickles and sees if she can open it.
And she goes through this massive gyration like she's just using every bit of strength she can.
She rotates her whole body and finally she cracks the lid.
And the audience applauds.
And conspiracy theorists are claiming the whole thing was rigged.
That the lid had already been loosened.
You think it was rigged.
Are you telling me I've got two people here at Inverside?
You think the Hillary Jimmy Kimmel bit was rigged.
There you go.
Even my staff, ladies and gentlemen, has now gone fully immersed into the notion that the campaign is a reality show.
And it's entertaining.
And you watch it to see what kind of outrageous thing is going to happen next.
You don't judge anybody in the middle of it.
It's because you don't want it to end.
You just watch it and you absorb it.
We are, according to Mr. Rosenblum here at the Huffing and Puffington Post, we're a TV-based culture.
We have been for some time now.
The average American spends five hours a day, every day watching TV.
After sleep, it is our number one activity.
More shockingly, Americans spend eight and a half hours a day staring at screens when you add the phones and the tablets and the computers to the five and a half hours they're spending watching television.
And more and more of the content on the phone and tablet and the computer is video and TV.
If you spend five to eight hours a day, every day for years and years doing the same thing, it has an impact on you.
And for the past 40 years, we have devoted five to eight hours a day staring at a screen every day.
And we haven't been watching Judy Woodruff, which is his means of conveying we're not watching PBS.
But we never did.
Now don't be fooled by something here.
PBS never has been a ratings winner.
Don't be fooled.
I mean, the idea that we used to all sit around and watch the news hour with Jim Lara, that That's a bunch of hooey.
Same thing with NPR.
In the 1950s, early television was allowed, with many restrictions, to be an observational guest at political conventions.
They were quiet flies on the wall, carefully Quietly commenting on what they saw way down below.
They didn't get involved in the process.
Today, TV is the process at conventions and everywhere else.
Today, political conventions are nothing but carefully directed TV shows.
Likewise, the debates.
They exist only to entertain a TV audience.
TV and entertainment now dictate everything political.
It is a never-ending show, the biggest reality show on air.
And Hillary Clinton sucks at it, and Donald Trump is great at it.
Donald Trump knows how to entertain.
Hillary Clinton, I'm reading verbatim from the Huffing and Puffington Post.
Hillary Clinton is crap TV.
She may be smarter.
She may be better prepared.
She may be a better politician.
It won't matter.
She is terrible entertainment.
That's just how it is.
It's depressing, but true.
Trump is Kim Kardashian.
Hillary is Judy Woodruff.
Who would you rather watch the next four years?
In 1825, the great French gastronomic de Savarine said, Tell me what you eat, and I'll tell you what you are.
Today in America, we can safely say, tell me what you watch, and I will tell you what you are.
And the guy's serious, by the way.
I mean, and there may be some tongue-in-cheek in this.
But there are a lot of people who they're being made very uncomfortable by this campaign.
And I could, if I wanted to give you the reasons why.
Take a look at what happened yesterday.
Hillary goes out, she's in Reno.
Trump has his rally at one o'clock.
Hillary does her appearance in Reno at three o'clock.
And it is classic.
It's once again a Democrat candidate unloading on a Republican as a racist.
She didn't just play the race card, she played the whole deck, folks.
Now the people who are watching politics seriously, it was devastating.
And it spelled the end of Trump.
That's it.
And depending on where you go in the drive-by media and in left-wing blogs and websites, they're celebrating, they think Hillary hammered the last nail in Trump's coffin yesterday, and it is over.
But it isn't.
In the past, it would have been.
That was devastating what she did yes.
The allegations, the accusations, it was devastating, but something else happened.
Trump fired back with every bit the salvo that Hillary launched.
And so the soap opera skipped, script continues to be written, and the reality show goes on.
Still being debated today is has Trump flip-flopped on deportation, amnesty, immigration.
It remains a major controversy.
Because every time Trump opens his mouth about it, something changes from the previous thing that he said.
Last night he was on with Anderson Cooper.
No, no, no.
Nothing's changed.
They gotta go.
They gotta go.
We're gonna find, we're gonna find the gang leaders, we're gonna find the thugs, we're gonna find a criminal.
We know where they are.
We're gonna go and they gotta go.
And he kept saying, but you how are you gonna find all the left?
We're not gonna do look, they gotta go.
They gotta go.
Can they can they come back and be citizens?
Yep, but we're gonna kick them out first, they gotta go, then they come back in.
And then Trump's, I don't even know how many there are.
11 million, five million, we don't know, but we're gonna find out.
Many in the drive-by's and elsewhere are saying this constitutes a major Trump flip-flop.
That Trump is beginning to moderate his tone, and now people are looking for people to blame on this.
Anne Colter says that this is Roger Ailes' fault.
She's in ABC last night.
I'm sitting here minding my own business.
I'm trying to take a break from this stuff.
And I get an email.
I'll tell you, Granite Van Sestran sent me an email.
Said, did you see this?
And I looked at what she'd said.
Anne Coulter, ABC News, blaming Roger Ailes for Trump moderating his tone on immigration.
Then I find out it isn't Ailes.
Rudy Giuliani says it's Chris Christie that is responsible for Trump moderating his tone.
We talked to Trump, he's not changing anything.
Nothing's changed.
You still gotta leave before you can come back in.
Still gonna build a wall.
And then Trump fires back at Hillary and her salvo on racism.
By the way, on that.
I'll tell you what I think her purpose is and why she may have miscalculated on this.
This is the one thing the Democrats, they always seem to either, if if they know it, they're really willing to run the risk.
It wasn't just what she said about Trump.
You have to realize Trump has a slew of devoted supporters.
And everything Hillary said about Trump can be said about his supporters.
I mean, you can't separate the two.
If Trump is all these horrible, racist, bigoted, just yucky things, so are the people supporting him.
And those people are going to rally to Trump's defense because they're not going to like being attacked by Hillary Clinton, who they think is the most corrupt Democrat candidate they could have nominated as their candidate for president this year.
And Trump is firing back, and it's big.
It's interesting, but I think what she was actually doing is even more sinister.
Now, granted, Hillary Clinton wanted to take Trump out, and she wants people to think that Trump is a low-brow reprobate.
The lowest of the low.
He basically human debris walking around out there, doesn't know what he's doing, he's unqualified, he's unsuited, he's not smart enough, he's dangerously placing the country at risk.
All these stuff, plus he's a racist.
What that actually was an appeal to moderate Republicans to abandon Trump.
It was an appeal to the never Trumpers.
And the message was I'm giving you a route to abandon this guy.
I'm characterizing this guy Trump as the biggest shred of human debris we've ever seen.
And I know you don't want to be associated with this.
I know you don't want to think that Trump represents your party, and you don't have to now.
I am giving you a way out.
All you have to do is agree with me, which should be easy, and we can join together and defeat Trump.
That's the unspoken attempt that Hillary was making yesterday.
In a way, it's it's kind of like the debate that happened between Al Gore and Jack Kemp in 1996.
Al Gore was the vice president, he and Clinton running for re-election, and Bob Dole was a Republican nominee.
He had chosen Jack Kemp as his vice presidential running mate.
So they had a debate.
And in the middle of the debate, Al Gore praised Jack Kemp for not being a racist pig like the rest of his party.
Gore goes on this rant describing all the racism and the bigotry that you find in the Republican Party, and then said, but Jack is not one of those people.
Jack, I understand you're not part of that group, and I want to.
And Jack Kemp said, thank you, Mr. Vice President, rather than defending the party.
Well, Hillary, a modified version of that same.
Oops, I just saw the clock, folks.
I have to.
Open line Friday, 800-282-288-2, whatever you want to talk about, folks.
Quickly, C-SPAN, Washington Journal today, viewer call-in, listen to this, a guy named Victor from Silver Spring, Maryland.
Hillary is personal for me.
I'm 69 years old.
I'm legally blind.
My sided wife, who was an extreme liberal.
As soon as the Clintons got into office, she gave me an ultimatum, either the marriage or Rush Limbaugh.
I picked Rush Limbaugh.
She dumped me.
Rush has said on his show many times that Hillary will remind every man who's been through a divorce with the way she screams and yells, she does remind me of my former wife who I cannot stand.
That's Victor from Silver Spring, Maryland on C-SPAN's Washington Journal of the Day.
You heard them chuckling there, whoever the guests were on their round table, they were chuckling.
So he chose this program over his wife, gives him an ultimatum.
He chose this program.
When we come back from the uh break here at the bottom of the hour, a few sound bites from Hillary's speech yesterday in uh in in Reno, Nevada.
She began the speech.
This is typical Clinton, but I don't know about you.
I'm sick of it.
I'm tired of the plan, the scheduled, the make book on it, Republicans are racists card being thrown by the Democrats in every campaign.
She starts out by saying, Everywhere I go, people tell me how concerned they are by the divisive rhetoric coming from my opponent in this election.
And just it's a typical setup.
People aren't complaining to her about that.
The divisive rhetoric in this country started eight years ago, or maybe even before that, and it comes from Hillary's party.
And welcome back.
And all living matter.
Here at the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
I checked the email during the break.
There's a couple interesting things here.
Um, first on the pickle business, on the pickle jar.
Can I be it was funny and all that, but let me be serious about this.
The whole thing is a giant distraction.
The whole bit, Hillary Clinton opening a jar of pickles on a Jimmy Kimmel show is a giant distraction.
Hillary Clinton has a thyroid problem.
That's what we know.
She has either an overactive or underactive thyroid, and she's taking uh some sort of medicine or combination of medicines for it.
Has nothing to do with her physical strength.
She's got the the the thyroid presents other problems.
That's why she needs to take time off and rest and and uh recoup and and this kind of thing, and it becomes a you know a question of can it be controlled or medication.
If she goes on Kimmel and they try to distract everybody with showing, oh, yeah, plenty strong.
I got all the strength in the world I can open a jar of pickles, and so she makes a big production out of opening a jar of pickles and people react to it.
The whole thing was a distraction.
It was it was a misdirection, if you will.
It was designed to steer everybody away from what really plagues her health-wise.
And it's it's typical Clinton behavior mode.
It's a typical trick.
Now they've got everybody talking about, well, sorry, not everybody talking about it, but those who are are talking about an aspect of it that's irrelevant.
But it's fun.
It's harmless.
The second thing is.
Should I upgrade to the new Apple software release?
Yes, you should.
Let me explain what happened here.
If you have an iPhone or an iPad, you need to, as soon as you can go to software update in your settings and upgrade to 9.3.5.
What happened was this.
There's an Israeli company that created an amazing piece of malware, and they offered it for sale.
Million dollars minimum.
The people who bought it were governments, primarily in the Middle East.
What this did, it was uh it was uh, I guess the way to describe it would be a very sophisticated form of fishing.
PHISHING.
The way it was discovered, there's a dissident uh slash journalist in the United Arab Emirates, and he got a text message from somebody he didn't know.
There was an internet link in the text message about a subject that he's very interested in, and that is torture in jails in Middle Eastern companies.
He did not click on the link wisely because he didn't know, he didn't recognize who had sent it to him.
If he had clicked on that link, one link, his phone would have been jailbroken, And the people behind it would have had access to everything on his phone.
They would have been able to monitor him using the phone.
They would have been able to listen via his microphone, watch via his camera.
It was one of the most amazing exploits that was actually three, what they call them zero day.
There were three different exploits here combined in this one hack.
Now, the odds that this is going to happen to you are slim, but fishing is one of the most common tricks used to get people to, in a in a in a way in which they're totally unaware, expose the contents of their devices.
You get an email from somebody, it's a fake email, like it's from your credit card company or your bank, and it looks real and they tell you there's a problem in your account.
Please click on this link, it says, and re-enter your ID information.
And a lot of people fall for it.
Well, in this case, you would have totally burned your phone.
You would have jailbroken the phone, which meant no security, anybody behind this link could have gotten into your phone and found out everything on it.
All of your passwords, every password that you've got, everything, every person in your contact sheet, your address book.
So, yeah, upgrade to 9.3.5.
One of the emails said, How come Apple hasn't made a big deal of it?
Well, they have, in a way.
They have in the in the tech community they have, and they're relying on the tech community to get the word out.
But at the same time, it's a you know, you don't like to admit that such vulnerabilities are possible.
So it's it's been low-keyed a little bit, but that's why I'm telling you to do it.
It's harmless.
In fact, it's it's it's you should there's nothing else that's gonna happen.
That patch is just going to be placed on your phone, and the security is going to be re-established.
That's the only reason to do it.
It doesn't change, there's no new features, there's nothing that's gonna make the phone run better or worse.
It just patches this giant security hole that was discovered just in the past ten days.
So that's what it's all about.
Now we go to the audio sound bites, and we're gonna start with the promised few excerpts from Mrs. Clinton's speech yesterday in Reno, in which she just accused Trump of every vile, despicable, racist and conspiratorial thing she could think of.
We have a total of four bites.
Just to give you an example, here's the first.
From the start, Donald Trump has built his campaign on prejudice and paranoia.
He is taking hate groups mainstream and helping a radical fringe take over the Republican Party.
Trump is reinforcing harmful stereotypes and offering a dog whistle to his most hateful supporters.
It's a disturbing preview of what kind of president he'd be.
She's alluding here to this new thing called the alt-right, which most people can't define.
Most people don't know what it is.
What Hillary is doing is trying to set up the alt-right as the new mainstream conservatism, and it's of course despicable, and it's vile, and it's disgusting, and it's what Trump is, and Trump is promoting it.
And you heard her say here, he's taking hate groups mainstream and helping a radical fringe, that's the alt-right munch, take over the Republican Party.
So that's her signal to people like Ryan and McConnell and anybody else in the elected Republican domain.
Hey, hey, you can abandon this guy.
Now, I've given you the highway, I've given you the way out.
I have properly characterized this guy taking over your party.
I can give you a way out so you won't be tainted by it.
Make no mistake that's what she's trying to do.
What she's not calculating by doing all this, she is insulting everybody who supports Trump.
Now, maybe she thinks that she's got enough of a cushion where she can do that and it won't matter.
But she's going to be president someday if she succeeds, and presidents have to be president of all the people.
But we found out that's not the case anymore.
The presidency has even become a partisan thing.
The presidency has been totally politicized and totally made partisan, as evidenced by the IRS going after the Tea Party.
And any number of other examples I give you.
Here's the next Hillary excerpt from Mr. Now, all of this adds up to something we have never seen before.
There's always been a paranoid fringe in our politics, but it's never had the nominee of a major party stoking it, encouraging it, and giving it a national megaphone until now.
This is a moment of reckoning for every Republican dismayed that the party of Lincoln has become the party of Trump.
Once again, outreach to Republicans, she thinks and hopes are outraged by Trump and have been for a while to abandon the Republican Party because it's gone.
The Republican Party, we've all known it's gone, Hillary says Trump's taking it over in his fringe bunch from the alt-right and Trump Bart news and all that, so you don't want to be part of it.
Come join me.
And there are some Republicans acknowledging that's what she's doing and thinking of making the move.
Media type Republicans.
Here's the next excerpt.
Twenty years ago, when Bob Dole accepted the Republican nomination, he pointed to the exits in the convention hall and told any racists in the party to get out.
The week after 9-11, George W. Bush went to a mosque and declared for everyone to hear that Muslims love America just as much as I do.
In 2008, John McCain told his own supporters that they were wrong about the man he was trying to defeat.
Senator McCain made sure they knew Barack Obama, he said, is an American citizen and a decent person.
We need that kind of leadership again.
Oh, there she goes, almost screaming, almost going off into ex-wifeland.
Now that's even further outreach.
McCain, George W. Bush, she's saying kind things about George W. Bush.
This is an invitation.
But what Hillary conveniently left out, which we will remind you, because I'm sure you know it, and maybe shouting at your radios even now.
She is the one who started the birther movement on Barack Obama.
She, in her campaign of 2008, and it was her husband who played the race card on Barack Hussein.
Oh.
It was her husband who said to Ted Kennedy in a moment of frustration in South Carolina, hey, Ted, this guy is a fairy tale.
This guy's a dreaming.
It wasn't that long ago, Ted, this guy'd be getting our scotch.
Isn't that right, Ted?
Well, Obama heard about that, and there was friction from that day forward.
But it was Hillary and her campaign which started this whole birther business.
Trump didn't start it.
Sit tight, folks, there's more, and then we go to your phone calls because it's open line Friday.
Hang in there, be right back.
Still in Reno yesterday afternoon, Hillary Clinton claiming that it was Donald Trump who started the birther movement.
Trump first gained political prominence, leading the charge for the so-called birthers.
He promoted the racist lie that President Obama is not really an American citizen, part of a sustained effort to delegitimize America's first black president.
Well, except the problem with that is that Hillary Clinton started it.
I don't know how many of you have recalled, but there was during the 2008 campaign.
This is one example.
There was a picture of Obama in Muslim garb.
He had gone home to Kenya.
Up sorry, he had gone to Kenya and the ancestral home there, the the the brother that lives in the hut.
And so forth is there.
And uh six by nine foot hut.
Yeah.
No, no, no.
The brother still lives in a six by nine foot hut.
Obama's brother lives in a six by nine-foot hut and lives on the equivalent of two dollars a year.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
If if if if Obama could find a way to give his brother 20 bucks, it would mean phenomenal.
Difference.
Lives in a hut, doesn't even have a sign.
Says home sweet hut.
There's no such thing.
It's it's it's anyway.
He went there, and he dressed in ceremonial garb.
And it was the Hillary campaign that got that photo and sent it to Drudge Who put it on the front page of the Drudge Report?
Now let's go back to March 2nd, 2008, CBS 60 Minutes, Steve Croft speaking with Senator Hillary Clinton.
Of course not.
I mean, that's you know, that there is a basis for that.
You reviewed that.
I forgot to ask the question.
Croft says you don't believe that uh Obama's a Muslim.
She was getting the question because her campaign had already raised the question.
People forget this 2008 campaign because it was Democrats and it was, well, eight years ago, but but it was.
It contained innuendo out the at the at the Wazoo, folks.
And the Clinton campaign had been insinuating that Obama might be a Muslim, that he might not be a natural born citizen.
The birther stuff all came from the Hillary Clinton campaign.
And Steve Croft said, you don't believe he's a Muslim, do you?
Of course not.
I mean, that's you know, that there is no basis for that.
You know, I take him uh on the basis of what he says, and you know, there isn't any reason to doubt that.
And you said you take Senator Obama at his word that he's not a Muslim.
You don't believe that he's a Muslim.
No, I'm not sure.
No, there is nothing to to base that on, as far as I know.
Whoa, there's nothing to based on it so far as I know.
That's not one of these categorical denials.
That's not one they don't be silly, Steve.
I can't believe you're asking such an insulting question about a Democrat candidate.
Of course he's not a Muslim.
Who in the world could possibly say but the problem was her campaign was.
And even more.
I mean, her campaign was playing race cards, her campaign was doing all kinds of her husband out there trying to demean Obama as nothing more than a waiter or butler.
And then claiming that he was gonna get a if he win the South Carolina, what was it Clinton said about winning a South Carolina?
Oh, it's just gonna be the same thing.
Happen, Jesse Jackson, it gonna mean anything.
You guys live in the fantasy world out there.
And what he meant was he's just gonna win because he's black.
That was Bill Clinton saying that.
And he did make that comment to Ted Kennedy about it wasn't that long ago, Ted, this this guy'd be getting this our scotch.
Or he might have said coughing.
There's a new Trump ad.
We uh we doubling back here to audio soundbite number two.
Last night, Trump's Twitter account, a new ad highlighting Hillary's campaign tactics against Obama during the 2008 primary.
When we arrived in South Carolina yesterday, this was the state newspaper.
Clinton camp hits Obama, attacks painful for black voters, many in state offended by criticism of Obama and remarks about Martin Luther King.
Dr. King's dream uh began to be realized when President Lyndon Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
It's as if you are minimizing I have a dream.
It's a nice sentiment, but it took a white president to get blacks to the mountaintop.
The damage between the Clintons and the African Americans in this country might be irreparable.
Obama's support among hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening.
Clinton had said a few years ago this guy would have been getting us coffee.
I am not a racist.
This whole thing is the biggest fairy tale.
Geraldine Ferraro's comment to a newspaper that quote, if Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position.
The Clinton campaign doesn't want to change the tone.
They're defending this, and this therefore is their strategy.
This was uh it's a it's a you don't see the video in this, but the ad highlights all of the that was Tim Russert meet the press uh at the beginning of Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC and Chris Cuomo from CNN was there.
Uh, and then they're all reacting to how outrageous the Clinton campaign, the Hillary campaign in 2008 is and the things that it's alluding to.
Uh, and and and one of those things is, hey, you know, Martin Luther King didn't do that much.
That's LBJ.
LBJ that gave a civil rights act.
Martin Luther King didn't do all that much.
That was the Hillary Clinton campaign.
And of course, she has embraced the only member to Ku Klux Klan to ever be in the Senate, a Democrat, Robert Byrd, and she said he was the conscience of the Senate.
And it makes what she did yesterday pale all the more because it's typical.
Democrats run out.
It's an a Linsky Tactic, actually.
You accuse your opponents of being who you are and doing the outrageous things that you do.
I'll tell you another reason for this speech that she gave yesterday.
Trump's outreach to the African American community.
Do not be misled.
Do not be fooled.
The Democrats are worried that it could be effective.
They're very worried about it.
They know, of course, don't act like it.
They act like, oh, this is outrageous.
Trump's not insulting them.
