The views expressed by the host of this show documented to be almost always right 99.8% of the time.
Happy to be with you, my friends.
Telephone number 800 2828 to the email address L Rushbow at EIPNet.com.
Let me take the first of these three quite lengthy pieces that I have mentioned by women.
And by the way, I just sent the links of them all up to Cocos, so you'll be able to link to them easily at rushlimb.com.
The one I'm going to start with is America.
You have no right to judge Judge Donald Trump is by Denise McAllister, PJ Media.
And then there is on the lewdness of Donald Trump by Rebecca Tetty, and she might pronounce it TD, I'm not sure.
T E T I. That's an American greatness, and then Heather McDonald and the City Journal Trumped UTE.
Now, these print out to six, seven pages.
Two of them do.
I can't read each word, don't intend to, but I have some highlights and pull quotes.
And first from Denise McAllister McAllister and the opening paragraph.
The wizards of smarts in the political arena are telling us that Donald Trump's campaign is over because of recently leaked tapes of a private conversation from 2005 that was disparaging to women.
The comments are so offensive, they say he is not fit for office.
From the moment the tapes are made public, the drum beat to Trump's personal walk of shame began.
Politicians who formerly endorsed him fled in terror, not wanting the soiled stain of sexual stigma attached to them.
Never Trumpers descended in holier than thou glee as they declared how noble and right they have always been not to support such a despicable man.
And the left has been howling like puritanical wolves, condemning him for his immorality and his sexist treatment of women.
I find this reaction to Trump's private conversation rather ironic.
It's ironic coming from a secular culture that long ago declared objective morality dead.
It's ironic coming from politicos and media bottom feeders who defended the abusive and disgusting behavior of Bill Clinton.
Not when he was a private citizen, but when he was a sitting president.
It's ironic coming from a Republican political elite that has told its religious base that social and moral issues don't matter in politics anymore.
It's all about the economy, stupid.
Leave your morals in the church, but don't voice them in the public square.
That last is a brilliant point.
How many of you have encountered such people on the Republican side of the aisle, say for the last 15 or 20 years?
Every presidential election year, what do you hear from these holier than now Republican moderates?
We gotta get them damn Christians out of party.
We gotta get we gotta get these social issues out of the party.
Abortion, it's killing us, it's killers.
We gotta get rid of these damn Christians in the Christian majority and moral majority because they're destroying us.
We're never gonna win.
We hated.
I don't want to go to convention with them.
I've heard it, you've heard it, I've told you stories about how I've been challenged with doing away with the religious right on the basis that they listened to me.
It was at a fundraiser dinner at the Hamptons, where I was approached by one of these elites, jabbing his finger to my chest, what are you gonna do about the Christians?
It's exactly right, by the way.
The moral majority of the religious right, what have you considered to be the reason the Republican Party was losing.
We need to dispatch them.
We need to get rid of them.
We need to stop being concerned about morality and the social issues.
We gotta focus on the economy.
So they said.
Fact of the matter is that Judeo-Christian ethics have been driven from our culture and declared a dinosaur from an ancient past.
Right and wrong, virtue, morality, goodness, destruction.
These have been rejected in pop culture, in our education system, in the media and politics.
We have been told repeatedly that character doesn't matter because everybody's values are different, and you don't get to define morality for anybody but yourself.
All that matters is an ideological agenda and the power that goes with it.
That's all that matters, and you better have the right ideology, and you better have the right agenda, or we're gonna destroy you.
This all started years ago.
When the Republican Party suddenly became enlightened and decided social and moral issues don't matter.
It's the economy stupid.
Don't talk about the evils of abortion.
Don't talk about the Ten Commandments, don't talk about prayer in schools, don't talk about the immorality of same-sex marriage or transgender or even homosexuality.
Don't talk about that.
Don't talk about Bill Clinton's sexual abuse or anything that touches on the issue of character.
We can't win if you do.
Don't talk about it.
Their message to salt of the earth types who believe in right and wrong and principles and the Bible has been, for God's sake, just shut up.
For years, the religious right was attacked and maligned from within the Republican Party.
They were accused of being backward, stupid, moralistic boobs, political elites were ashamed to share the same space with them on the public stage.
They just wanted them to go away.
Well, they didn't go away, but they did listen.
If morality doesn't matter in politics, then just elect somebody who will at least stop the leftist joggernaut or slow it down.
Even though he's immoral, unprincipled, egotistical, and not really much of a conservative.
In other words, the Republican elites told people to believe in right and wrong and morality and maybe Christians.
Forget it.
Don't concern yourself with that.
Don't concern yourself with vulgarity, don't concern yourself with character, don't concern yourself with things like abortion.
We've got a bigger thing to fry.
We have got to stop the left.
We've got to stop the Democrats, and we can't do it if you people are going to be running around worried about morality all day.
So what did people do?
They said, okay, here's Donald Trump.
The Republican base went out and nominated Donald Trump.
And have you noticed that a whole lot of evangelical groups have not run away from it?
Franklin Graham.
Others have stood right winded while other Republicans are running for the tall grass.
Well, and the point here by Denise McAllister is you Republican elites, this is what you said you wanted.
You wanted somebody hip, you wanted somebody cool, you wanted somebody who wasn't a prisoner to religious values.
You wanted somebody who wasn't a stiff moralist, judgmental, demanding everybody be perfect character, have the right attitudes on guns and gays and marriage and what have you.
And a Republican Party said, we can't win with you people.
So Republican-based voters, whether they intended to or not, whether they were responding to the Republican elite or not, ended up nominating somebody who clearly is not a disciple of the religious right or the moral majority.
And never claimed to be, by the way.
The Republican elites ought to be happy.
The Republican elites ought to be, this is the way we do it.
This is the kind of people the Democrats like.
This is the kind of people Democrats nominate.
This is the kind of people the Democrats vote for.
This is the kind of people Democrats put on television.
And they did Put Trump on television.
They gave him his own show at NBC News call the apprentice.
So Miss McAllister's point of what the hell are you doing now?
What are you Republicans who wanted to get rid of all this now piping up as though you're the religious prudes and there's no place in our party for people who don't cowtout a morality and virtue anymore?
That's why she says, you have no right to judge Donald Trump.
You got no right to judge anybody.
You have been condemning the antithesis to Trump for years.
Here comes what you get when you do that.
You want to kick character out of the equation, you want to kick morality out of the equation, meaning the equation for proper and good candidates.
You want to kick virtue out of the equation.
You want to kick all these great moral and cultural virtues out of the equation?
Fine, go ahead.
Well, this is some people's view what the result is going to be.
Now all of a sudden you act righteously indignant, like your sensibilities have been offended, like we now can't win because we don't have somebody of the proper morality and virtue and character.
Is it any wonder that Republican-based voters' heads are spinning and swimming and are fit to be tied?
And the same reaction to Democrats, because all of this is trumped-up phony.
Most men love women.
Most men are intrigued and bedeviled by them.
Most men spend their lives dreaming about women.
It's the most natural normal thing in the world to do.
But here comes the left and the Democrat Party trying to politicize even male-female relationships by inculcating into them things like feminism, proper political behavior, and what they have done is screw up everybody's human nature, where the opposite sex is concerned.
Now nobody knows who they're supposed to be, where they're supposed to be, what they can and can't say.
Because who are the police in all of this?
American leftists and liberals who have as their objective political agenda victory in every aspect of life.
I haven't heard...
I don't know.
I haven't heard of Donald Trump behaving like Bill Clinton has and maybe still does behave.
I just I don't think Trump hates women like they're trying to say.
On its face to say that Trump or people like Trump hate women, but that's what the left has done.
So now it's gotten to the point where women on college campus imagine they're going to be raped, imagine they have been raped, write fake stories about being raped when it hasn't happened.
Men don't want to get anywhere near these places anymore.
Because something as beautiful and natural as male-female relationships have been perhaps inalterably politicized, and politicized from the standpoint that men are the predators and that men are brutes and that men are uncaring and saying what have you.
Oh, to get the female vote.
And I just sense people are getting fed up with it entirely.
They may not even know specifically why.
But it's just one of the seemingly gazillion things that just are not right in this country and out of whack.
And everybody is now getting afraid to do things, say things, think things.
Because somebody that you can see or can't see may someday surface.
So and allege that you have been a reprobate.
Like I say, folks, in the first hour, for those of you who think the Republicans have to get rid of Trump, if you go ahead...
But I'm just going to tell you, they can do to Mitt Romney what they did to him.
They can do it to anybody.
It isn't going to help getting rid of Trump.
If some point people don't stand up and make this kind of tactic not work for the Democrats, it's going to continue.
Thank you.
For years, Christians in particular have been attacked and silenced as they've tried to challenge the immorality pervasive in today's society.
When they tell people casual sex is wrong, they get the inevitable.
You've got no right to tell me what I can't or can't do.
You don't get to define morality for me.
It's none of your business what I do.
Shut up.
If they oppose sexual immorality in any form, including adultery.
They're maligned as sanctimonious Puritans who have not gotten with it in the 21st century.
It's a long piece, it's well thought out.
But the point is, in the midst of all of this, the very people promoting the dissolution of morality and virtue now claim to have their morality and virtue offended to the point that they can barely get out of bed every day unless we get rid of Donald Trump.
It's about time somebody stood up to him, and that's what Trump's doing, and that's why he is alive and breathing in his campaign today.
Not these other things.
I got to take a break.
We'll continue with your phone calls when we get back.
Don't go away.
By the way, you know, back in April, April 6th, they went back, because I thought I'd recall the CNN did a whole story on uh it was a warning to Trump not to go after Bill Clinton.
I remember sharing that story with you when it came out back in April on this program, and I pointed out here they are already CNN already trying to protect Hillary by warning Trump, don't go there.
And the last paragraph of this story is just delicious.
But you hang on for that because I said that we're gonna go to the phones.
When I say it, we do it.
So we're gonna go back to Brownsville, California.
Michael, glad you called, sir.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Rush Megadiddoes from Northern California.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
You know, you're right on point today exactly with pointing out the hypocrisy on both sides of this issue.
My question for you is what about the supposedly conservative uh male pundits, oh Steirwald or Crowhammer or these guys, who are so disingenuous to act like this is such a big deal.
Why doesn't anyone just say this is how men are?
It's testosterone.
It's you kidding.
There isn't there.
There's not a man alive today who is gonna say, hey, I've done it.
Hey, I'm friends that have done it.
Hey, there's not a guy, particularly in the world of politics or media, who wants is who is going to say he is in any way familiar with what Donald Trump was saying.
It's it's really disappointing, Rush, because you know, uh conservatives like us tune into you three hours a day for some guidance, and when you're not on the air, we look other places, and you know, maybe there are some conservative pundits on Fox News, and to see him be so disingenuous on this issue, it's very disappointing.
Well, wait a minute.
They here's the difference, right?
They actually live and function in the world of politics.
And they they're happy to, and they admit so.
I mean, they they're media people, but they cover and analyze politics.
I do not.
I am a radio gum, a radio talk show host, and I talk about things above and beyond politics.
I'm just so good at it that I come across as a political expert.
But I'm not afraid to sound like I'm not of the political apparatus.
Those guys can't afford to.
They've got to condemn it.
They have to condemn it.
it's expected in in in in that business.
It's in the the unwritten rules of conventional wisdom.
The conventional wisdom here is Trump's reprobate.
You better not defend that.
It's indefensible.
It's indefensible based on uh where the the establishment has taken politics and culture in public today.
And to, and if you get even close to explaining that, or in if you think if if people think you're defending it, then you're gonna get the same treatment Trump is getting.
Isn't it ironic that uh more women are coming to Trump's defense on this issue, like the articles that you pointed out?
Again, no, it's not surprised me at all.
I think in the world of politics run by the left, men have been chickenified.
Yeah, well, you're right about that.
And and by the way, by the way, but before you start thinking, I'm not saying they've become wimp at wimpized, although they may be.
They've become chickafied.
I have always believed that in a civilized society, women really run it.
Women have the power because it's women who say no.
That is very true.
Women who say yes and other and and that's what's always been such a uh curious thing to me about feminism, that they never lost any power.
However, when you when you start talking about this particular area of our population, you're talking about the the politicized nature of our of our country where feminism dominates, and all heterosexual men want women.
And all men realize you've got to do certain things.
If you're if you want to get a feminist, if if you want to get a woman who happens to be a feminist, then you better do and say be certain things.
Men have gone crazy trying to be what they think women want them to be, and that's men in Washington.
Gone crazy.
Ha, here are you.
Our previous caller made a uh good point, uh illustration.
He found it he found it curious that it was women on the conservative side of the aisle who seemed to be more able to spot what really is going on here.
Therefore, it is women who are the least offended by what Trump's doing.
I I'll tell you this, folks.
There's nobody better to tell you who's a man and who isn't than a woman.
Women will spot manliness or lack of it faster than any man will.
If you really want to know it, it's it's just the way it is.
Now, looking for uh strong men to, if not defend Trump, to at least try to put this perspective in in uh conservative media, folks, it ain't gonna happen.
Everybody there's in the world of politics.
Politics is uh it's got its own rules and boundaries and the daily narrative and a conventional wisdom, and if everybody in it concludes that that Trump equals reprobate, Trump is sleez, Trump's if if you don't flow with it, if you don't at least admit to the premise first and then try to, you know, qualify yourself.
You're dead in that world.
It's a follow-me world, uh politics is, and the left runs it.
And there are just certain things that you have to uh accept.
And in that world, the definition of a real man is different from I would say outside Washington or outside the establishment.
I don't think that's even arguable.
But human nature's what it is, and men, straight men want women.
And it's always a challenge.
It's never a piece of cake.
You're rejected.
You know what Woody Allen, one funny thing he really said.
Somebody said, Woody, what is success meant?
He said, man, it means being rejected by a higher class of woman.
Life is filled with rejection.
Men, nobody.
Women, they don't like rejection.
It hurts.
It's painful.
But women do it.
Women are the ones that say no.
Women are the ones that refuse marriage proposals, say no to going out on dates, say no to sex, say no, whatever.
And in a civilized society, that's the last word.
Women have always had this power.
As a student of sociological behaviors always fascinated me.
Men will do whatever it takes.
If they spot somebody they really like, they'll do whatever it takes.
If it means read a Susan Brownmiller book to be conversant on what feminists think of rape, they'll do it.
When they otherwise wouldn't.
If it means treating women as victims of reprobate men, if it if it means thinking that conservative men are a bunch of predators and wife beaters, then you do it.
You think it.
Whatever's required.
Because most men end up being Pee-Whipped.
It's the state of things.
It's why there are babies.
And that, you know, just I guarantee saying that is going to tick off so many what you cannot.
I'm just referring to nature.
Nature.
What is the purpose of life?
What is the primary objective of life?
To live, to sustain itself.
Life goes on.
Wherever it is, its main objective is to keep going.
And it always wins.
Life always wins.
And nature, it's all built into nature.
Survivability, life perpetuating.
And that means there have to be babies, babies everything.
Baby birds, baby human beings, baby ants, baby, you name it, there have to be babies.
And what has to happen for there to be babies?
Okay.
Birds and beasts, what has to happen for that to happen?
It's all intertwined, and it's all nature.
And the left has come along and tried to monkey with it by politicizing as much of it as they can for whatever just really convoluted reasons.
Taken a real beautiful thing, uh, male-female relationships and turned them into a battle.
A political battle, an ideological war.
And if you doubt me, what is the war on women?
What the hell is how crazy is that entire concept that there is a political party conducting a war on women because they hate them.
And the fact that they can sell that to their voters and make political gain on that basis is damn amazing to me.
And yet, how many people do you know who really believe that there's a war on women that Republicans can serve don't like women.
It's the most stupid.
It's a I'll tell you what it liberalism has become a special kind of stupid.
I have this story.
I referenced this mere moments ago, and I want to go back to, I want to read to you this last paragraph because this is classic.
This is the CNN piece from April.
And it was the piece that served as a warning to Trump, and the Republicans don't bring up the Clinton sex scandal.
The premise of the story is you boobs tried this back in the 90s.
You idiot Republicans, you tried destroying us and the Clintons and the Democrats would don't make the same mistake again.
Because see, they're trying to help us.
The media and the Democrats see in it, they're trying to help us.
They don't want us to make the same mistake again, right?
So they're warning us, do not try to go after Bill Clinton again.
And here's how the story begins.
Bill Clinton's nearly forgotten 1992 sex scandal.
Begins scandals are an integral part of the American political tradition.
The lesson is that not all scandals are equal.
And sometimes the failure of an incident to uproot a candidate tells us a good deal about the changing political Moment in which they are running.
And this was the case in 1992, Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton.
They go on to talk about all the women that came forward, and it didn't harm Clinton, didn't derail Clinton, the Republicans overplayed their hand, and the warning here is don't do it again.
And this first paragraph explains how the Clintons got away with it.
And I the translation to this paragraph is the Clintons lied their head off, and they attacked the women who were telling the truth, and the drive-by media went along with the Clintons and helped destroy the women.
That's what CNN admits happened here.
And they're warning, it'll happen again.
If you Trump or any Republicans go after Hillary on the basis of going after Bill, we're gonna lie again and we're gonna promote the Clintons again, and we're gonna make sure you don't get away with it.
And the last paragraph of this piece, and I may need to read a sentence beforehand.
end.
Yeah, the times they were a change, and Bill Clinton never pretended to be some kind of cultural conservative who claimed that everybody should live by a certain personal standard, nor was he a politician who wanted some kinds of regulations on the ways in which other Americans lived their lives.
The fact this did not bring him down revealed the zeitgeist had changed pretty dramatically.
Meaning the fact that Clinton could survive all those scandals, all those women saying that he had done this to them, the fact that he could survive it revealed the zeitgeist that changed.
Now, the zeitge, the definition of the zeitgeist the spirit of the times.
So what this means is American cultural advancement had progressed to the point that a guy supposedly raping a woman and abusing others didn't bother Americans anymore because they were culturally advanced.
And Republicans would pay the price for not seeing that.
Republicans would pay the price for missing these lessons when they tried to impeach Clinton later, based on a sexual relationship with intern Monica Louis.
That's not why he was impeached.
It's because he lied under oath to a grand jury.
But that's splitting hairs.
What the Republicans learned once again, are you ready for this now?
Remember, this is in a piece warning Trump not to go after Bill Clinton back in April.
What the Republicans learned was the public didn't want these sorts of issues to dominate their politics.
And in the end, the backlash from the impeachment proceedings against Clinton went against the GOP, not against Clinton.
In the 2016 election, we're seeing once again that the public is more interested in a need to fix the economy and Washington than they are with the personal lives of most of the candidates in this campaign.
At least those who don't claim any kind of special personal virtues.
So let me translate this in case you this ought to be slapping you upside the head here.
In April, CNN warns us, don't go after Bill Clinton.
You tried it once, it's not going to work.
The American people don't want to hear this kind of stuff about their candidates.
They want to hear about the issues.
So you leave Clinton alone.
It'll only hurt you, Trump.
Now, what's been done to Trump?
The exact thing that they're warning us not to do on Bill Clinton back in April.
They're telling us the American people don't care about these kinds of things in a candidate.
We have the need to fix the economy.
We have to fix Washington.
People don't care what Clinton did in 1998.
People don't care what Trump said in 2000.
Except, except now that it doesn't involve Bill Clinton, isn't it interesting?
The American people do care.
And the American people care about it more than they care about issues, because now it's not about Clinton, it's about Trump.
So once again, this hypocritical double standard rears its head.
Blatantly in such a way, you can't miss it if somebody like me catches it and points it out to you.
Here's the bottom line.
I note that that Paul Ryan has all but concluded that Trump is going to lose.
He's not, he's not pulled back his endorsement, right, but he's not going to go out and fight for you.
That's right.
He has not pulled the endorsement.
But he's basically, he's he's telegraphed Trump's gonna lose, and now he's working on saving the House majority and so forth.
Right, he won't won't defend Trump and won't campaign for Trump.
So okay, fine and dandy, but I have to tell you something, folks.
See, this is the real, when you get down to the nutcrack in time, here we are.
For those of you who are never Trumpers, those of you who uh you just you just can't bring yourself to support Trump.
How can you support Hillary?
How in the world can you do that?
And don't tell me you're not.
Oh, I'm not, I'm gonna sit it out or I may vote third word.
B.S. Anything you do besides vote for Trump is essentially electing Hillary Clinton.
And the thing I want to know is if if you're going to suggest that Trump is unsuited, unfit not qualified.
And if you are conservative and saying this about Trump, then how can you not say it about Hillary and her candidacy?
If Trump is unfit, why is she not?
On the basis that people are determining Trump is not fit, she's even more unfit, if you ask me.
She's got a 30-year track record that tells us the damage she wants to do.
She's got a 30-year track record of the kind of dishonesty and misdirection that tells us exactly what we are headed for.
So if you if you can't bring yourself to support Trump on some basis, it's the exact same stuff with Clinton, only just as bad, if not worse.
I can't help it that the election manifested itself the way it did.
But for me, it's always been about one thing defeating Hillary Clinton and the Democrats and the Obama agenda.
And for the life of me, I don't understand why.
Well, sadly I do.
It just it really bothers me, and it has for a long time.
Irritates me.
Why we on our side can't set aside the things that separate us and unify about one thing.
We can't even unify around the concept of defeating Democrats.
What good are we?
What good is there a Republican Party if it cannot even unify around the concept of winning for crying out loud.
Do you realize the left have factions that hate each other?
They've got different coalitions that despise each other.
There's all kinds of coalitions, and they're all competing for as much of the federal money as they can get.
The Democrat Party parcels it out on who knows what basis.
But when it comes to stopping us, they forget all of that and they unify around the singular objective of defeating us.
We on our side apparently do not have even one thing in common that can unite us.
Not even the desire to win.
It boggles my mind.
And I know from where it comes.
It comes from political post-traumatic stress disorder.
It comes from years and years of fear of what the American voter thinks of you.
It comes from a never-ending desire to somehow convince the American voter that you're not the real the reprobate that the Democrats have portrayed you to be.
A losing proposition.
You got an R by your name, they're going to hate you no matter what you do and what you say and how you do it.
Ask John McCain.
Can't even unify around the concept Of winning.
And that's what they do.
That's what I if you can't.
If you can't see clear to support Donald Trump, because take the if it's the if it's this access Hollywood audio, or if it's his supposed uh coarse and rough personality, or I don't care what it is, Same things exist with the Clintons.
The Clintons have a known 30-year agenda and track record that any other year would be opposed.
So we have people on our side who know how bad it is, and they know how much they disagree with it.
But in this one instance, they would just as soon lose.
Somebody explain it to me.
Okay, in the next hour, we got a lot of great calls lined up.
I want to get to them.
Also a review of the WikiLeaks email dump.
Emails to John Podesta really expose Hillary Clinton as somebody who's not been telling her voters the truth about her plans and about who she is.
And also millennial women just now learning about Bill Clinton's women.
