You are tuned to the most listened to radio talk show in America.
Hosted by me, Rush Limbaugh, among the most talked about hosts in media today.
Looking forward to chatting with you.

So I guess Kanye West showed up at Trump Tower today.
And the drive-bys are all just a Twitter and a flutter about this.
And apparently what happened was Kanye West, recently out of the hospital for some sort of mental exhaustion, depression, typical Kardashianitis, apparently went back to New York, went into Trump Tower, they wandered in there, and Trump heard he was there and came down and met him and actually escorted him out of the building as he left.
So people are saying, maybe Kanye is going to perform at the inaugural ball.
Maybe that's what this was.
Trump's saying, I've known Kanye for a long time.
I know all these.
And he does.
Trump knows all these guys.
You know who's at Trump Tower right now?
Jim Brown and Ray Lewis.
Jim Brown of the Cleveland Brown.
No, Jim Brown, he's not that left-wing radical.
He's not as left-wing radical as he could be.
He goes back and yeah, he's there with Ray Lewis.
And there was some other, maybe an agent or something with them.
Now, I don't know if they're there to meet Trump or if they're just tourists, walking in and seeing what all the hubbub's about.
Kadarshanitis.
That's what I call it.
Kadarshanitis.
Kardashianitis.
Kardashianitis.
It seems to afflict everybody.
Anyway, they're all upset about Kanye West.
I don't understand what people don't get here.
Kanye West is the prophet of low-information voters.
Why wouldn't you want to hang out with Kanye West?
I mean, if you're Donald Trump and you're trying to spread your realm and your sphere of influence everywhere, Kanye West, who is the prophet, I mean, he is the king of the low-information crowd by definition.
If it's not Kanye, it's somebody like him.
Anyway, folks, great to have you here.
Rex Tillerson.
No, no, I'll get back to McConnell and Ryan.
It's like I said, yeah, folks, I don't want to be trapped by this narrative here of the Russians hacking the election, and that's why Hillary lost in Trump.
I resent this.
I told you yesterday.
This whole thing is fake news.
Everything about it is fake news.
In fact, I'm going to tell you what I believe.
I believe that whoever leaked this is not the Russians.
I think it's an insider.
I don't think this is the result of a Russian hack whatsoever.
Now, the Russians and the THICOMs are hacking or trying to hack everything.
That's one of the things I'm not quite up to speed.
I am up to speed.
I'm not quite satisfied about.
Where was all this concern about the Russians when they were hacking the Department of Defense, trying to hack the State Department, trying to hack Hillary server?
Where were all these calls for investigations?
You know, until the Democrats end up losing an election, nobody wants to conduct an investigation to look out what happened.
But when the world is turned upside down, because the Democrats lose an election, why then all bets are off and we've got to go out and find out why?
And it can't be that they had a lousy candidate.
It can't be that the lousy candidate ran a bad campaign.
It can't possibly be the American people have had their fill of Democrat failure after failure after failure.
It makes perfect sense the American people are fed up with where this country is right now.
It makes perfect sense that the American people want to change a direction.
It makes perfect sense that people are fed up with losing jobs and not getting any wage increases and being told that America's best days have already happened.
They're tired of this.
They don't want to live in a country like that.
They don't want to be led by people who seem to care more about certain groups of people than they do others.
They don't want to be led by people who don't see us all as valid.
I know the American people are sick and tired.
Half of them being told by the Democrats they're unjust and immoral because their skin color.
I just, people are tired of it.
It makes every bit of logical sense that Hillary Clinton would lose.
She lost once in 2008 in her own party.
She failed to get Obamacare passed.
She has written a book that nobody bought and nobody showed up at her book signings.
There's no evidence that she has any attraction for a mass number of Americans ever about anything.
The track record of Hillary Clinton is one of defeat, and it happened again.
But the Democrats, you wouldn't believe the number of people out there saying the exit polls, the exit polls showed that Hillary won and then she turns out to lose.
That must mean there's fraud.
These people are out of their minds, folks.
They've literally lost their minds.
They have been infected with a special kind of stupid.
And our first caller today was, they are imploding.
They cannot handle this.
But the point is, they're going to continue imploding and they're not going away.
And they're going to do everything they can to try to delegitimize everything about Trump, his election, his presidency.
I see it in two ways.
It's a problem.
It's going to have to be fought.
It's going to have to be beaten back.
And these people are going to have to be humiliated in defeat again.
The time for kid gloves and powder puff days are over.
These people have already been pounded into the sand by virtue of the election, and it must continue.
I'm fed up with them.
I've had this arrogance and this conceit that something's wrong in the world if they lose an election.
It makes every bit of logical sense they would lose an election and in an electoral college landslide.
That does make sense.
It computes.
It's common sense.
And I've had it with this idea that because they lose, something is desperately wrong with our institutions, and we need to find out what it is.
And even if we have to get rid of the guy who won because he faked it, we got to put her in there.
No way.
These people have had their chance.
They have shown they have the ability to wreck this country's economy, to doom this country's future.
They don't see this country in an upbeat and positive way.
And we do not need people leaving this country who do not love it, who do not believe in it, and who do not think that its best days are ahead of us.
We do not need people like that.
All they can do is bring everybody else down, which they try to do.
I've had my fill of it.
So they launched these tirades.
And it's like I said yesterday, I resent being pulled into this because this is a fake news narrative with fake facts, fake this, fake that.
And I just resent, like I said yesterday, I did show prep, and I had two stacks, and 90% of one stack was about this CIA Washington Post, New York Times report that the Russians wanted Trump to win, and so they pulled off some kind of magic.
And that's what bugged me about McConnell and Ryan.
There's a part of me, folks, that's the wrong way to put it.
I believe that the people in the Washington establishment in both sides are not happy.
I know they're not.
I mean, there's no reason why they should be.
An outsider has come in and literally taken control of it and is on the march.
And he is redesigning virtually every system they have had in place that first and foremost protects themselves from the lobbyists to the elected officials to the cabinet people to the bureaucrats in the various departments of government to the certain aspects even of the establishment media.
And Trump is just knocking it all over and casting it all aside.
And I, I, what's the right way to put this?
Let me put it this way.
I will not be surprised.
No, I don't want to put it that way either.
Let me just say it.
I think there's members of the establishment, both parties, who are biding their time and hoping against hope that Trump bombs.
And all this talk about siding leg up to him and joining him and thinking he's great after they talk to, I think it's BS, the establishment's the establishment.
Some of them are going to try to trip Trump up.
Some are going to wait until they think he trips himself up and then they're going to make a move.
And the first opportunity they get to demonstrate their loyalty, what do they do?
They demonstrate their loyalty to the establishment.
Just saying, it's undeniable what's happening out there, whether you want to call it what it is or not.
There's been plenty of opportunity to get mad, demand investigations into the Russians.
There's been all kinds of opportunity to demand investigations into the ChiComs because both of them have been trying to hack the Pentagon, been trying to hack the Defense Department, the State Department, the White House.
I haven't heard anybody calling for an investigation into it until now.
I have no doubt.
I just, I'm so, and I don't think you should either.
You need to keep your powder dry, as they say, and keep an open mind.
McConnell Ryan back CIA after Trump attacks Hacking Probe.
In one way, something never changes, does it?
The media comes out.
What this is, is it looks on the surface whether it's this or not.
It looks like it's the typical fear of the media and not wanting to get on the media's bad side.
And right now, the media narrative is that Trump stole the election with the help of Vladimir Putin.
And the intelligence agencies say nothing.
They don't have a shred of evidence.
They just have analyst conclusions.
The FBI says one thing, the CIA says another.
And now people are saying, well, you know, the FBI looks at things in different ways.
Russia said, what do you mean?
Well, the FBI, they go into a case and they look at all the stuff they can accumulate to get an indictment and a conviction.
CIA not doing that.
The CIA collecting evidence for intelligence gathering.
Two different groups of people looking at the same thing will see different results and different characteristics.
You want to get that convoluted to try to justify the fact that neither has any evidence.
All they have is supposition.
There isn't, just like there's no evidence of man-made climate change.
There isn't any real evidence.
There's just a lot of suspicion.
The whole thing is fake news.
And I see Republicans cozying up to that aspect of it.
Little yellow flags raised, not red, little yellow flags.
Now, Rex Tillerson.
Rex Tillerson is the CEO of ExxonMobil.
A man by the name of Stephen Cole, C-O-L-L at the New Yorker, has written a book about Exxon and as such wrote a lot about Tillerson.
In the process of writing his book, he was denied repeated requests for interviews from Tillerson, but he nevertheless got a lot of Tillerson's comments on the record because in shareholder meetings and other public appearances where Tillerson spoke, he would show up and record them.
His piece is in the December 11th issue of the New Yorker.
Now, I don't know what Mr. Coll intended, but my take on this, I think for any of you who have doubts about Tillerson, if you read this New Yorker piece, you're going to have a much more favorable impression of the man than if yours today is negative.
I don't know if Col intends that or not.
I don't mean to be doing damage to his career here, but his piece makes me like Tillerson even more.
Here's some details.
And I've always liked Tillerson for a host of reasons.
But again, I've never stopped to think of Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State.
I've always looked at Tillerson as what he is, the CEO of ExxonMobil.
The book that Steve Cahl wrote is called Private Empire, ExxonMobil, and American Power.
And he says here that Rex Tillerson's life has been shaped to a profound extent by two institutions, ExxonMobil and the Boy Scouts of America.
Tillerson grew up in Texas.
His father was an administrator for the Scouts, was not paid very much.
Rex Tillerson himself became an Eagle Scout.
He was an engineering major at the University of Texas in Austin.
He joined ExxonMobil in 1975 and he's never worked anywhere else.
Now, ExxonMobil is part of the Rockefeller oil monopoly, Standard Oil.
And it is said that of all the oil companies that resulted from the breakup of Standard Oil, that Exxon is culturally the closest to John D. Rockefeller and the way he ran Standard Oil, which means that ExxonMobil is organized on principles of capitalism.
Mr. Call describes it as ruthless capitalism.
I think all of capitalism is ruthless.
This is just what people don't know.
Competition, real competition for sales of anything, competition for ideas.
Competition is ruthless, period.
It's not ruthless to people that don't like it.
It's not ruthless to people that don't compete.
But it can be brutal.
And it's not a bad thing.
Competition is where innovation comes from.
Competition is where leadership comes from.
Don't misunderstand.
I'm not a person that sees perfection in things.
Everything has its problems and faults.
No individual is perfect.
No group of people is perfect.
But I am not one who believes that capitalism is flawed by virtue of its existence.
The left is the cutthroat capitalism.
Just to bring it down to an understandable, standable level, the cutthroat capitalism in high-tech would boggle your mind.
The cutthroat capitalism competition going on, say Apple and Samsung, or Apple and Google, or Google and Microsoft.
It's brutal, folks.
You oftentimes don't see it, but it is.
And it's certainly brutal in the oil industry, in the energy field.
And so Tillerson is described here as working at Exxon, which is the direct descendant of John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil, which is organized on the principles of ruthless capitalism and Protestant faith.
Exxon today is an unusually cloistered corporation that promotes virtually all of its top executives from within.
Former executives say that as recently as the 1970s, it was not unusual for Exxon to start company meetings with a prayer.
Rex Tillerson won the competition for the CEO job in 2004 when Lee Raymond retired.
He directed substantial time and charitable activity toward the Boy Scouts.
Take a break here in the midst of this because of the constraints of the programming format.
We'll be right back.
Don't go away.
All right, let me read you a couple of more passages here from the Steve Cowell excerpt about Rex Tillerson.
In public appearances, he comes across as sophisticated, yet his life is rooted in, listen to this line here, his life is rooted in environments that are fundamentally nostalgic for imagined mid-century virtues and for the days when burning fossil fuels did not threaten to trigger catastrophic climate change.
So they're trying to say Tillerson is a guy whose cultural values are back in the 50s, Ozzy and Harriet.
He thinks you can burn all the oil you want without causing climate change.
That is such a crock.
The arrogant presumption of these people, it is a religion with them.
You know, it's to them, big oil causing climate change is the same thing as Christians believing in the resurrection of Christ.
And there's no arguing it.
Except they are wrong.
They're scientifically wrong, the whole thing.
There's not even any evidence for it, other than computer models.
Anyway, he also, Tillerson also, one of his favorite books, Atlas shrugged.
He loved Ayn Rand and her 1957 novel.
Compared to the records of some of the other people around Trump, Tillerson is one of the most professionally, well, has some of the most professional integrity of all the people around Trump, according to this guy.
Exxon is a ruthless, unusually aggressive corporation, but it is also rule bound.
It's built up a relatively strong safety record.
It has avoided problems such as prosecution under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, even though it operates in many countries that we can't find anything bad about the guy.
We can't find a damn thing.
Why, this guy even sponsored the Boy Scouts being opened up to homosexuals.
They can't find anything about the guy except that he loves oil.
So Rex Tillerson loves oil.
It's all he's ever done.
He's big in the Boy Scouts.
And there are some people unhappy with Rex Tillerson on the conservative side of the aisle.
Tony Perkins has come out against Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council as saying that Tillerson served as president of the Boy Scouts 2010 to 2012.
In 2013, the scouting organization voted to extend membership to openly gay youths, and Mr. Tillerson was instrumental in lobbying the board to make that change, according to the Dallas Morning News in 2014.
Tony Perkins thus raising concerns about Tillerson, calling the nominated Secretary of State the greatest ally liberals would have in the forthcoming Trump administration due to the oil and gas executive stances on social issues.
And gays in the Boy Scouts is just one thing that Perkins is raising red flags about.
That's the only thing so far in this story.
It's in the Washington Times.
There was a political story, where, did you say?
The Politico has a story that Tillerson has supported or is.
Oh, I say, the Politico has didn't.
I don't read a Politico except when somebody sends something to me.
So the Politico has a story quoting Perkins and saying that Tillerson also supported Planned Parenthood.
Okay.
So there's that.
Tillerson, according to Tony Perkins, opened up the Boy Scouts to homosexuals and supports Planned Parenthood.
Yet it's a devoutly religious guy.
And he is devoutly religious.
He goes to Bible study every week and attends church every Sunday, even as a busy CEO traveling the world making deals.
Now, let's get to what the left doesn't like.
I mean, by that measure, the left ought to love the guy, right?
But they don't.
Everybody's out there, oh, this is the worst thing that could have happened because he's a big corporate guy.
I mean, that's like showing Dracula the cross.
These people on the left, they can't get over the fact that Trump's got corporate success story after corporate success story after corporate giant after people that love to do deals.
I think the left is going to go nuts.
They already are.
But I mean, with as often as Trump, like Trump said today, he's delayed the press conference he was going to have on what kind of involvement he's going to have in his own business.
But he assured people there won't be any new deals while I'm in the White House.
Not going to do any deals.
Deals.
Won't be any deals.
Deals are action.
Deals are making things happen, and Tillerson's done a lot of deals, and Trump loves the— Do you know that Trump didn't even know the guy?
Trump had, I mean, he knew of him, but he didn't know him.
Somebody suggested you really need to talk to this guy, and they really hit it off over the fact that they both do deals.
Doing deals, successful deals, being a big deal maker and winning when you do it.
I mean, that's, it's a relatively small club.
It's pretty rare air that those guys are breathing.
And it does have a lot of commonality to it.
And this is where the left doesn't like Tillerson.
Tillerson's success with Exxon was attributable in part to the work that he has done in Russia.
He has forged close ties with both Vladimir Putin and Igor Sechin.
Sechin is the close Putin ally who runs one of Russia's oil and gas giants.
Well, I'm sorry, but that would make sense.
If you run the world's largest oil company and you're doing deals all over the world, what's your job running the largest oil?
You've got to find it.
You've got to find it.
You've got to go get it.
You've got to bring it out of the ground to profit.
You've got to go out and find it before anybody else does.
You've got to be willing to go wherever it is.
And it turns out the Russians have a lot.
And so Rex Tillerson wanted to make deals.
And he did.
He made deals with Putin.
He made deals with the Russians.
And of course, the Russians now are why Hillary lost.
These people really think this.
So anybody close to Putin, Satan, satanic, got to go.
Well, the Hillary reset with Russia was – no, no.
Snirdley says, I thought the reset with Russia was supposed to be good.
Look, I'm glad you said that because there's something, a point needs to be made.
Up until this year, the Democrat Party was in bed with whoever ran Russia, other than Boris Yeltsin.
They were in bed with the Soviet Union.
They loved Khrushchev.
They loved Brezhnev.
They loved Yuri Andropov.
They loved, I mean loved.
It was bordering on obscene love for Mikhail Gorbachev.
I'm telling you, they just couldn't get enough.
Wherever the Soviets wanted to expand, the Democrat Party was right in there helping them do it.
Be it Cuba, be it Nicaragua, it didn't matter.
Grenada, the Democrat Party was doing everything it could to stop Reagan trying to limit Soviet expansionism.
Told you yesterday about the story of the FBI, KGB files that were released after the Berlin Wall came down, the Soviet Union imploded.
Ted Kennedy actively working with Yuri Andropov, who ran the Soviet Union at the time, when one of those periods of time when Reagan was president, you know, kept asking Reagan, why don't you meet with the Russians?
The Democrats were paranoid.
They thought Reagan was going to nuke the world.
And the Soviets were the only saviors we had.
The only responsible people we had on the other end of the nuclear equation was the Soviets.
They kept asking Reagan, the media, why don't you have a summit?
Why don't you meet with them?
He said, they keep dying on me.
Why meet with somebody who's going to die the next day?
Until they get somebody young in there who can make a deal that's going to hold up, I'm not going to talk to them.
And it turned out to be Gorbachev.
I went to at UC Davis when I lived in Sacramento.
Jean Kirkpatrick, who was in the Reagan administration, came out and addressed the student body at UC Davis.
This was like attending the Soviet Political Bureau Jr. meeting in Moscow.
And she came out, and one of the first words out of her mouth, and you've got about 1,500 students at UC Davis who think the Soviet Union is the Garden of Eden.
And she says, the only difference between Mikhail Gorbachev and any other Soviet murderer thug is that he's alive.
And this room of UC David students erupted.
I started laughing myself silly, but the students were about to have a fit.
And she said it with that look on her face of utter defiance.
She was not one of these people that thought students were gods.
Students were exactly what they were, ignoramuses.
They were in positions of learning because they didn't know things.
Other people regard students as experts on things, but she didn't.
And so she was talking to them as though they didn't know what they thought they knew.
And it just didn't sit well with them.
Some of them started booing, some started throwing things.
But the point is, the Democrat Party, leftist socialists all over the world used to love the Soviet Union and Russia.
And Obama was in bed with Putin.
You've forgotten that shortly before the 2012 election, you know, Obama's been trying to get rid of our nuclear arsenal.
He's trying to downsize it because Obama believes that our nuclear arsenal is destabilizing the world.
It's part of my theory of Obama's chip on his shoulder that America is the problem in the world, not the solution.
And he really believes this, folks.
And he believes that our nuclear arsenal is why so many other nations engage in violence.
They're scared to death of us, and they're out trying to protect themselves because they're just afraid we're going to attack them and wipe them out and conquer them.
Things that we don't do.
We don't conquer.
We liberate.
We never have conquered.
But Obama thinks that the U.S. military and our arsenal of weapons is the biggest threat to mankind.
And so he's in the process of downsizing our nuclear arsenal.
And apparently it wasn't going fast enough to please Putin.
So Obama was caught on an open mic telling one of Putin's chief aides, Dmitry Medvedev, tell Vladimir I'll have more flexibility after the election, meaning after I defeat Romney.
I'll have a lot more flexibility to downsize our arsenal.
So just tell Vlad to be patient.
We had Hillary go over there with her plastic new reset button to reset the relationship with Russia after George W. Bush supposedly broke it.
The Democrat Party has been buddy-buddy with Putin.
They've been buddy-buddy with the Russians.
They've been buddy-buddy with the Soviet Union.
Now all of a sudden they hate him.
Now all of a sudden the Russians have become an enemy.
Now all of a sudden Putin's a bad guy.
I mean, John Kerry used to love Putin.
It's the most amazing thing to watch how the Democrats will flip allegiances on a dime.
Anyway, back to Tillerson very quickly before we have to take a break.
Tillerson forged a close relationship with both Putin and one of his big aides that runs the big oil business there, Igor Sechin or Sechin.
And in 2011, Tillerson flew to the Black Sea resort area of Sochi and signed a joint venture agreement with Putin under which ExxonMobil would partner with Putin's oil company, Russia's oil company, to produce oil from the Arctic.
A project, are you ready for this?
A project made easier by the retreat of Arctic sea ice due to global warming.
What you're supposed to take, if you read this, what you're supposed to take away from this is this Tillerson guy, what a dastardly evil guy.
He runs the business that's destroying the climate.
He runs the biggest oil business that's causing global warming.
He's causing the biggest melting of the glaciers in the North Pole ever.
And then the SOB is going up and profiting by drilling for oil with the Russians.
God, we hate this guy.
But Exxon has nothing to do with the shrinking of the polar ice gaps.
Do you know what happens every year?
Polarize the North Pole, because there are seasons.
There's summer, there's spring, there's fall, even at the North Pole.
Not like here, but the temperatures vary, and the sea ice always melts up there at some point.
But you know what?
What's been happening?
This is what they don't tell you.
That when it gets cold and it starts freezing, that the North Pole ice sheet is bigger than ever.
Thicker.
Thicker than ever.
So it makes sense that Tillerson and people who know what they're doing would wait for the proper weather conditions when there's been some melting and it's easier to get to the oil to bring it out because that's the name of the game.
Tillerson partnered with Putin to make this happen.
The main themes of this guy's book involve the ways that ExxonMobil saw itself as an independent, transnational corporate sovereign in the world, a power independent of the American government, one devoted firmly to shareholder interests and possessed of its own foreign policy.
Well, now, wait a minute.
Isn't that something Obama would like?
We're all supposed to be globalists.
Sovereignty to the United States, that's old-fashioned.
That's yesterday.
That's yesteryear.
We're all globalists now.
We must be citizens of the world and we must treat the world as though we're citizens.
Though there is not an Exxon that's an American company, it's a global company.
So Tillerson runs it that way.
And now they hate him.
They hate Tillerson simply because they think they should.
But Tony Perkins obviously has legitimate gripes and beasts.
Quick timeout, my friends.
We return your phone calls.
Our next don't go away.
Anybody remember this kind of scrutiny with any of Obama's Obama's cabinet picks?
It was universal love.
And of course, the Republicans are right in there.
I remember Newt when Obama announced his national security guy, I forget the guy's name, but Newt was going, oh man, if you'd have told me that we were going to get a guy of this caliber in there, I would have told you that you were nuts.
And then he picked Eric Holder and a bunch of Republicans.
Whoa, this is the best pick anybody could have ever made for eternity.
Remember that?
And I'm sitting here pulling my hair out.
Anyway, one more little line here from this New Yorker piece on Rex Tillerson.
And remember now, this is supposed to be an indictment of the guy.
So I think if you read it, you might end up liking him.
The goal of ExxonMobil's independent foreign policy has been to promote a world that is good for oil and gas production.
Because oil projects require huge amounts of money and only pay off fully over decades, Tillerson has favored doing business in countries that offer political stability, even if this stability was achieved through authoritarian rule.
Now, the definition of that is that Tillerson would rather go to a place if there's oil there and he can increase his shareholder value and if he can up his stocks, if he can get more oil out of the ground and be assured of more business, and the country's run by a dirtbag dictator that's going to be there for 20 years, he'll still do it.
Because the goal of ExxonMobil's independent foreign policy has been to promote a world that is good for oil and gas production.
That's supposed to be an indictment.
To the left, that's supposed to tick people off.
It doesn't me.
I think it's so sensible as to be scary.
I mean, it is just utter common sense.
But again, I'm not a person who has a problem with oil.
I think oil is the fuel of the engine of freedom.
The more of it, the better.
And we're nowhere near replacing it.
It's a pipe dream.
So the more we need it, and the more of it that we have and control, the much better off everybody is.
Here's Mark in Farmington Hills, Michigan.
Mark, great to have you with us for the EIB Network.
Hello, sir.
Hello, Rush.
I'm Ditto Head from back around the time of the bake sale.
And when I say Ditto, I mean it as the highest form of praise.
Well, you've been here a while.
Thank you very much.
And I'm calling because I've been thinking about this since the early part of the election.
I was watching Ed Rollins on a newscast and talking about how the establishment, once they get rid of all these other people, that they were going to clean house and get rid of people like me who have voted straight ticket Republican since Ronald Reagan ran for president.
And I've kind of been harboring a grudge since that point.
And I guess I'm going to say that.
Hold on a minute.
Ed Rollins didn't get people like you rid of people.
Well, he was spewing all this hatred about the fact that people like in the Tea Party and people who were highly conservative, that once Bush was going to be elected again, that they were going to clean house.
Well, from the beginning of that campaign, remember now the Jeb Bush campaign strategy was to win the nomination without winning the base.
And I didn't hear Ed Rollins say what you say, but if he did say that, that's what he was carrying the water for.
Well, my question is, is now that the shoes are on the other foot, since I know that he did say that, is it possible that people like him will have their house cleaned, so to speak?
Well, no.
They'll bide their time.
They're convinced Trump's going to implode still at some point.
They'd ought to be there to pick up pieces.
I mean, that's their mindset.
Look, I've got to go.
Tell Snerdley what kind of iPhone 7 or 7 Plus that you want, carrier, color, and all that, because I don't have time to ask you, right?
Be back after this, folks.
You know, man, fastest three hours in media.
Two of them already in the can on the way to Limbaugh Broadcast Museum, a virtual museum, which Obama just announced he's going to have.
