Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Greetings to you, music lovers, thrill seekers, conversationalists on across the fruited plane.
Time for the award-winning, thrill-packed, ever exciting the boom is about to fall down on me here.
Increasingly popular, growing by leaps and bounds.
Rush limbaugh.
I was talking about the microphone boom.
I had to screw it in tighter here.
Going by leaps and bounds, my friends, right here we are at the Limbo Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Great to have you.
Telephone number 800 282-2882.
Okay.
Ladies and gentlemen, did you see the final popular vote tally?
Donald Trump won the election by three million votes.
If you throw out California and New York.2 million votes.
It's a perfect illustration of why we have the Electoral College.
Now, my question is a simple one.
Since Hillary won the popular vote, why are they complaining about the Russians hacking the election?
I mean, Hillary wins a popular vote.
What more can a hacker do than get you the majority of the popular vote?
But yet they're running around complaining about the hackers, and they're blaming the Russians for stealing the election, and yet she won the majority of popular votes.
It seems to me you can't have it both ways.
I know some of you people, well, well, Rush, you what do you mean Trump won by 2.8?
Well, you can't throw out New York and California.
Well, they are.
They are when they say the Russians hacked the election, they are c which didn't happen, by the way.
And you what you know.
Furthermore, there is no evidence.
There is not a scintilla of evidence, even at this moment.
There is not a scintilla of evidence that the Russians even are responsible for the leak of all of those pedestal emails to WikiLeaks.
Not a scintilla.
Now you may think that you've heard all these intelligence people running around saying that uh they have concluded that the Russians were trying to hack this and trying to hack that.
That use of the word conclusion, by the way, is kind of like the use of the word claimed by the drive-by media.
As I pointed out uh yesterday, they yell they throw the word around claimed, uh, as in limbaugh claims, an audience of 20 million, in order to disqualify, in order to question, in order to uh de-authorize, if you will, the information.
I don't claim anything.
I report.
I report the size of our audience.
They report that I claim, meaning I'm making it up, meaning I just saying it.
And it's the same thing here with with with this conclusion.
You are supposed to think that when like a consensus of scientists has concluded, and that that equals science, it doesn't mean anything.
It's just a bunch of people banding together, telling you what they think, but there's nothing official behind it.
The word concluded is a trick word.
It's designed to uh attach authority and ontological certitude to whatever follows when it's just another way of stating what somebody thinks.
All these little word tricks that the uh that the drive by's play, and that's what I'm doing here.
Throw out New York and California, Trump wins the popular vote by nearly three million votes.
But you can't throw out New York and California.
This is exactly why we have the Electoral College.
And again, one more time briefly.
The Electoral College had there been no electoral college, and had the election be defined by the popular vote, I guarantee you that the two states where the candidates would have been all the time, or New York and California, and then they've been some time in Texas, and they would have ignored the vast majority of people in the country.
They would have ignored the vast and the vast majority of the geographical area of the country would have been ignored during the campaign.
And so the results would have been different.
Who's to say that Trump would not have done better in California if He'd spent some time out there.
And who's to say that that Hillary would have done worse if she'd spent some time out there and actually had been seen by people in California, like she was seen elsewhere as you know, having questionable stamina and so on.
So they're still playing word games with this and mind games, and it's clear they're having trouble coming to grips with it.
In fact, David Rodham Gurgen, grab audio soundbite number two.
Last night CNN Aaron Burnett out front is speaking with the Dean of Conventional Wisdom in the Beltway, David Gurgen.
She said, calling Trump's voters angry white men.
Is Bill Clinton making a mistake there?
On the surface tit for tat, sandbox behavior.
I don't think is very meaningful, it's pretty trivial, actually.
But I do think what it reveals underneath is the disdain that is grown in each man or the other.
It may be true that at one point they were closer, much closer, but neither one of them respects the other anymore.
And I think it's particularly raw coming today after the electoral college and Bill Clinton.
He's taking his heart.
He believes he should have won.
I think he believed basically it was an unfair resolve.
Everybody thought that Hillary was going to win.
That's the problem.
Everybody thought nobody was paying attention.
Even Mitch McConnell.
I don't know what this guy's doing.
If I he's he's he's he's he's out talking about this as though he's proud of it.
I wouldn't be admitting this kind of stuff if I were Mitch.
Mitch McConnell, I expected Trump would lose and Republicans would lose the Senate.
We have an audio soundbite on this, if I can find it.
Grab number six and uh yeah, just number six.
This is Mitch.
This was on Kentucky Public TV's one to one with uh Bill Goodman.
I honestly thought we wouldn't hold the U.S. Senate.
I thought we'd come up short, and I didn't think President Trump had a chance of winning.
Given my expectations, doubly exciting because I thought we'd come up short on the Senate.
We had a lot of exposure.
That was really something.
But it never occurred to me that he might be able to win as well.
Never occurred that they might win.
Now, I, on the other hand, I thought Trump could win this thing last summer.
A year ago last summer.
He'sn't paying attention.
These people inside the beltway, they're really walled off.
I mean, even people on the Republican side.
So McConnell, I expected Trump would lose.
I thought we would lose the Senate.
And then he went on, he further said he was kind of surprised that a rich guy like Trump could be elected.
You know, it it it's bad enough that the Democrats believe their own media, the drive-by media, but there are too many Republicans that believe it too.
And is it any wonder that they have acted on occasion like defeated hopeless waifs?
I mean, they apparently read and absorb everything the drive-by media says, and they believe it too.
And of course, the drive-by media is routinely making fun of them and talking how hopeless they are and what a what a distant minority they are.
And to be shocked and stunned by this, you wonder if any any any lessons have been learned.
Oh, by the way, folks, as the program unfolds, there's uh uh some developments here.
We've had a couple callers about this in the past couple days about Trump's stimulus plan, this trillion-dollar uh infrastructure thing that he wants to do, and how it's gonna be structured as some fascinating stuff about this uh that I have dug deep and found uh out there, and I want to share it with you as the program unfolds.
But before we get into other things serious, such as there are some doctors at uh the Cleveland University Medical Center who made an amazing discovery.
This will shock you.
This is a stunning discovery.
They have discovered there are changes in women's brains while pregnant that prepare them for motherhood.
There are changes in the planned parenthood people are not gonna be happy to hear this.
And the feminists and their allies are not gonna be happy to hear this, because to them, pregnancy is a disease that needs to be Treated in Planned Parenthood deals almost, well, not exclusively, but rather popularly in the procedure to deal with the illness and the sickness that is pregnancy.
Now we find out that the female brain, and this is a woman doctor who released this data along, I think with another doctor, the from New York Stony Brook University.
I'm not sure if he was part of it.
He was a guest on TV where this is being announced, but I know the Cleveland University Medical Center, Cleveland University Hospital, babe, was taking the lead on this and explaining it on TV.
Um, that the pregnant woman becomes more attuned to social cues related to her newborn.
Something about brain chemistry.
It changes during pregnancy to prepare women for motherhood.
Psychologically, we're taught, not physiologically, but attitudinally, psychologically, and women become more attuned to the social cues related to their baby.
Now, I don't know what is meant by social cues, but I think I could figure this out.
And the way I would interpret this is that these doctors in Cleveland have discovered that nature has a way of preparing women for motherhood that nobody knew existed.
Women just seem, you know, it said that women are nurturers.
That women are much better nurturers than men.
Men, you know, they leave the cave, they go out there and slave the evil dragon and all that, and they bring the carcass back, and the family continues to eat, well, mom is in the cave nurturing baby caveman and so forth.
So the idea that women are nurturers, I think this may be some of what they're talking about.
I'm waiting further data on this.
Well, I've seen TV interview.
Also, if you if you have a chance to watch something, uh, I'm sure after I finish here that Coco at Rush Limbaugh.com will go find the link and put it there.
I just watched the funniest interview I've ever seen.
Jerry Lewis, who's 90 years old, seven-minute interview with obviously somebody that sounds 18 at the Hollywood Reporter.
The Hollywood Reporter is doing a some kind of a feature involving interviews with Hollywood and other celebrities who are 90 years of age or older, and they're asking about it.
And Jerry Lewis obviously didn't want to do this interview.
I watched this interview and I was so envious.
For example, Mr. Lewis, can you can you say for us and maybe one of the most memorable stories of your storied career?
No.
Can you tell us how Las Vegas has changed since you've been coming?
What do you mean?
Well, when you first began coming here in the 1940s, it was just a dusty counttown.
It's still a dusty cowtown.
Can you tell us uh how hard you work now compared to when you were just as hard?
Well, why do you continue to do it, Mr. Lewis?
Because I'm good at it.
And I like it.
It was just one word or two-word answers, and the the look of I don't know what you disdain on Lewis's face.
This is hilarious.
And I gather that social media is erupting over this.
And there are two camps.
One camp to think Jerry Lewis is an absolute creep for behaving this way, and then there's another camp of people defending Jerry Lewis against people attacking him.
But it when it's all over, and Lewis, it's cle I obviously doesn't like doing interviews.
I don't know why he did this, but he did it, and it was just, it was painful.
And the questions were as generic.
I mean, it would just, I don't mean to be insulting the interviewer here.
I'm not, I don't even know his name, so I'm not going to mention his name.
But when the thing's over, and Lewis knows it over, he stands up before they can come take the microphone off of him, pack this crap up and get out.
It's just, it's it's what everybody who's ever been interviewed would love to do.
Um, because Lewis acts like every question was beneath him.
Every question was stupid.
Every question was, I've answered this.
How many tens of thousands of times in my career I'm 90 years old?
Can you come up with something I haven't been asked?
Which would probably be hard to do.
So I'm sure Coco now is going out finding the link and uh and and we'll have it so if you want to take some time and watch it.
Again, every caller today will be offered an opportunity for a new iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus, a subscription to Rush 24-7, the uh the website, membership for one year complimentary, and a copy of the latest Rush Revere, Time Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans book.
Book five Rush Revere in the Presidency.
Every caller today will receive that package.
We'll take a brief time out, come back and get started with all the rest of the program right after this.
No, now let me be clear.
I'm I didn't mention this McConnell business to take take a hit on him.
That's not what this is about.
Folks, I'm talking about the attitude of winning and the the can do spirit, and how I think people inside the beltway in both parties have retreated to their corners.
And unfortunately, in the Democrat side, their corner is they win by knockout every time.
And our corner is people expect to lose, and the idea is to limit the damage.
And then those attitudes, you see what the attitude's doing to the Democrats.
They cannot accept that they have been rejected.
They can't accept that they have lost.
They cannot accept that every and believe me, folks, everything they stand for here has been repudiated.
Now I know some of you are saying, Rush, how can you say this because of this popular vote?
Hillary did get two and a half million more popular votes than Trump did.
Well, true, but that's not how the campaign happened, folks.
This is all about the campaign.
There is a route to the presidency in this country, and it's called the Electoral College.
And both candidates based their campaigns on winning the Electoral College, not the popular vote.
And in that pursuit, Donald Trump won in a landslide, and in that, or near landslide, and in that pursuit, Barack Obama and his agenda was repudiated.
And not just this year, 2008, 2000 or 2010 midterms, the 2014 midterms, and this election.
You're probably bored now hearing me recite how many seats the Democrats lost nationwide, national, state, local, in those three elections.
It's over 1,500 seats.
The writing was on the wall.
Now, a lot of us missed that.
I will grant that.
But the Democrats can't come to grips with the fact that they have been not just defeated, they've been rejected.
What they stand for and what they did and their fingerprints alone are on these things.
Obamacare, that stimulus.
That's why this is a very risky thing for Trump, this stimulus that he wants to do, but we'll get into that in just a second here.
And the executive orders and Obama is doing it again with this ban that he thinks is in perpetuity on offshore drilling in the Atlantic Ocean and north of Alaska.
Now, about that, just a brief aside.
It's bad what Obama's trying to do.
And I know exactly what he is doing with this.
I'll tell you that in a minute.
But the first thing is the areas that Obama has by executive order declared off limits are areas nobody wants to drill in anyway.
There are no plans to drill off the coast, the east coast of the country out in the Atlantic, and there are no plans to drill north of Atlaska in the in the uh in the Arctic Circle.
What Obama wants to happen, I'm sure, is for Trump to try and reverse this and a number of other executive orders that he has yet to implement, and he will do so on his way out the door here.
These executive orders, well, this one that limits offshore driven for oh, natural gas, is all designed to save the planet from the evils and the deadly characteristics of fossil fuels.
And so Trump, it is hoped, I'm sure, by the Democrats at Obama.
I'm sure that they're hoping that Trump will make a move soon To rescind and repeal Obama's orders, even though it is said they're permanent and it can't be done, but it can.
And then Obama will call the media and he'll go on TV and he'll immediately accuse Trump of poisoning the planet, not caring about poisoning the water and all this other stuff.
Don't doubt me, I know how this stuff works, and more of you, each and every day who listen here religiously know as well as I what Obama is setting up here.
It is to portray Trump as some selfish heathen who only cares about his own profit and well-being and doesn't care that the little guy might be a victim of more pollution and the climate might be changing more rapidly than ever, and Trump will be responsible for all of this.
But the agenda that Obama had was personally repudiated.
Everything, including stuff like this, his executive orders, immigration, all of it has been repudiated.
They can't come to grips with it.
But on our side, in our corner, where they don't expect to win.
How could you have missed what was happening in this country?
How could you have missed it?
Well, I know the answer to my question is they didn't want Trump to win in the first place.
He's an outsider, he's not part of these.
I know they answered all these questions.
But I'm asking them for a reason.
The Republicans didn't win this time because of the Republicans.
And the conservatives didn't win this time because of the conservatives.
The Democrats got beat this time because of Trump.
That is what has happened.
And there are a lot of us who are deliriously happy about it and want to build on it as uh as as best we can.
Let me.
Yes, I see.
Bottom of the hour break coming up.
It's what we call in broadcasting a hard break, which means it happens no matter what else happens, including nuclear detonation.
Ha!
Are you?
Welcome back.
El Rushmore having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Folks, have you heard about the uh the news?
You heard this story from up in Ithaca, New York?
Have you heard?
Let me just take a test here.
Brian, you know what I'm talking about.
Ithaca, New York, do you know about it?
Uh Dawn, Ithaca, do you New York?
You have it?
You heard mom's from Syracuse in Cornell is there, and that's a big universe of Don knows Snerdly, you know what happened in.
Okay, it's so two of the three of the people in their site class know about it, but they of course work for me, and that means they are wired in.
But I would venture to say that a vast majority of people, when I say, have you heard the news out of Ithaca, New York?
Oh, you don't know what?
Oh, I thought you were nodding your head that you did know.
Oh, well, of course everybody knows what Ithaca is.
I just asking if you knew what happened there.
You don't know what it was.
Oh, well, let me let me tell you what happened there.
A man from Ithaca has been arrested for shooting a UPS driver to death, who he thought was Donald Trump.
In fact, after he shot the poor guy, the PERP allegedly drove his car over him.
Now you might not have seen any of this news since it hasn't made it out of local media except for one snarky report in the New York Daily News in the distant New York section of the paper.
So, and this guy still claims, after all this, that he thinks he killed Trump.
He thinks he shot Trump and then ran over him, and he's out telling the authorities that that's what he did.
Now, we don't know if this guy setting up an insanity defense and wanted to rob the UPS truck and shot the driver, or if this guy really did think he was killing Trump.
But if this were Hillary Clinton, if there were some lunatic out there that had shot a woman and claimed that he was shooting Hillary Clinton, do you think the media all over America would be talking about it?
And then condemning any and all supporters of Trump and Trump himself for the incendiary rhetoric that he's engaged in and has inspired this violence.
Because remember when Gabby Giffords got Shot out in Arizona, they tried to blame me and Sarah Palin.
It was for Palin, it was ridiculous.
They tried to claim that because she had had a crosshairs icon on her website.
And then when something like this happens, Brian Ross at ABC News and others get into gear and try to find out if the shooter happens to be a member of the Tea Party.
But you you don't hear about this story.
You're not hearing about it.
It has not made it in the national media.
But here you have some deranged guy who to this day thinks that he killed Donald Trump.
That's what he's saying anyway.
And I just if some lunatic had done this to somebody he thought was Hillary, can you imagine the uproar?
Can you imagine the wall-to-wall coverage?
Why did this guy want to kill Trump?
Why did this guy think that he was killing Trump?
What could have happened to make him so hateful toward Donald Trump?
Might it be the drive-by media and the Democratic Party?
Could they maybe be held somewhat accountable here for their never-ending constant vilifying of Trump?
Just a little just a little think piece.
Newt Gingrich, do we have this on the I know I saw it?
Let me find this for you.
Audio soundbite number five.
Newt was on NPR today, uh morning edition.
By the way, I really want to have to apologize to the staff.
This is like the third day in a row that we've had a soundbite NPR, and that means somebody is is is you turn on NPR, and it's the hardest thing in the world not to fall asleep.
And my staff, even during the holidays, performing yeoman duty.
I mean, if I sit there and watch CNN, and uh they do screen MSNBC in case something that might survive the ban there, the Arab, now NPR.
Newt was there today, and uh, let's see, Rachel Martin, co-host, morning edition, said, What about Trump's often-stated promise to drain the swamp in Washington, Newt?
What does that mean?
What's he gonna do?
I'm told he now disclaims that.
I've noticed on a couple of fronts, like people chanting lock her up, that he's in a different role now, and maybe he feels that as president uh you know, as the next president of the United States, that she he should be marginally more dignified than talking about alligators and swamps.
I personally have, as a sense of humor, like the alligator and swamp language.
And I think it vividly illustrates the problem, because all the people in this city who are the alligators are going to hate the swamp being drained, and there's gonna be constant uh fighting over it.
But you know, he is my leader, and if he decides to drop the swamp in the alligator, I will drop the swamp in the alligator.
So Newton is going to stop talking about draining a swamp because he's heard that Trump is telling people he wants to disclaim it, he wants to stop using it.
I haven't heard that, not that I would.
Uh we will see.
You know, Trump is going to continue doing rallies, uh, I think wisely, and I'm just curious to see if he actually will cease using the uh the phrase.
Um also, you know when I hear something like this, and hey, look, don't anybody call Newt and tell him I'm accusing him of anything here.
But every prominent person has people surrounding him, and many of the people surrounding the prominent person think they're smarter than the prominent person.
Many of them are protective, many of them are very loyal, but some of them are deathly afraid that the prominent person's gonna say something that constitutes stepping in it.
I've had this happen to me, which is why, ladies and gentlemen, I offer the possibility that maybe Trump isn't saying this at all, that there might be people in Trump's circle who wish he would stop saying it, who then go out and tell Newt or any other number of people, yeah, yeah, Trump says he's not gonna use it anymore.
He doesn't like the phrase.
Because, you know, in every prominent person circle, there are people, and people are people.
And some of them don't like having to defend what the prominent person does or says.
And some of them get nervous that they might be seen as defending Something they wouldn't ordinarily defend, and there might be somebody in Trump's close circle that really doesn't like this.
Drain the swamp talk.
Might be somebody that has ties to the establishment, i.e.
the swamp.
And so it might be somebody out there putting words in Trump's mouth, and thus challenging Trump to stop using the term, because what if if this is not Trump's idea, if Trump has not disclaimed using the phrase, but now Newt and others are out in the media, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's not going to use that phrase anymore.
What's Trump going to do?
Is he does he disown with a tweet his own people?
Probably so.
But I wouldn't put it past him.
But look, I know these kinds prominent people.
I don't care how prominent, I don't care how famous, I don't care how achieved, there are still people that are constantly trying to manipulate him.
In fact, maybe even more so.
There are people trying to manipulate them, trying to use them telling other people how close they are when they really aren't.
There's all kinds, I mean uh people like Trump who are riding the crest of a wave where all kinds of light and attention are being shined.
There is a lot of people that want to be in that light.
A lot of people who want to be thought to be in the inner circle so that some of that attention might cast itself on them.
So any number of things could explain.
And it could also be that Trump has disclaimed it, too.
I'm just sharing with you the way I react to things like that.
So I don't want anybody calling Newt and telling Newt that I am not believing what he said.
That's not my point here.
Uh brief time out, as we take another obscene profit break here on the EIB network.
Here that the Trump team, I love this, by the way.
The Trump team has asked the State Department what it spends on international environmental efforts.
First, the Trump team sent a questionnaire over to Department of Energy wanting to know, okay, which of you freaks over here is detending all this UN climate stuff, and which of you people are doing this and that, and it got so much coverage in the drive-by's that the Trump campaign apparently disclaimed it, since that's a new word.
The Trump campaign that didn't come from us.
So we we we we are we are pulling back on that questionnaire.
Right.
And yet here's an and again, this is from the Washington Post, so we have to we have to consider this is not true as well.
Donald Trump's presidential transition team has asked State Department officials to disclose how much money it provides each year to international environmental groups.
It's the latest example of how the incoming regime is reassessing the U.S. government's approach to tackling claimants.
This may not be true.
Who's in the State Department?
A bunch of Loretta Lynch, I'm sorry, a bunch of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama people.
A bunch of left-wing ideologues, and they are just as capable of lying today as they were before the election.
So they call up a friendly reporter.
You know what the leadest outrage is?
Trump is now demanding, you know, how much we spend on international environment.
This is and of course the Washington Post just run with it.
So, again, sharing my reaction to this with you.
Because who really knows?
I'm just telling you, I've I've turned over a new leaf.
When it is the news and political sections of the New York Times, the Washington Post Science, I my first reaction is to question it and not believe it.
It's hard to do, too.
Most people automatically believe what they read.
Well, it wouldn't have been published if it wasn't true.
It's just a natural human reaction, but I am questioning everything.
And if I'm proven to be wrong, fine.
I don't mind being wrong in circumstances like this, but I'm I'm finished being fooled.
Quick time out.
We will continue after this.
You know, it's starting to feel like Friday to me, and it's only Wednesday.
Have you noticed the news is slowed down now?
The Electoral College, well, I'm telling the political news.
The Trump poses a grave threat news.
I mean, this is still a bunch of stories.
Tom Arnold, if you heard of Lays with Tom Arnold, you know who Tom Arnold is.
One of the husbands of Roseanne.
He's out there saying, hey, you know what?
I got outtakes Of Trump.
I got outtakes like you, I got more outtakes than anybody's ever heard of Trump and the Apprentice.
And he's talking racist lingo, sexual stuff.
I've got really, really outrageous outtakes of Trump.
Yeah, well, why haven't you used it?
Well, you know, I didn't think it might have been proper.
But they're not you can still find pockets.
Uh CNN's focused on the North Carolina bathroom law.
I would talk about that, but I frankly have no idea what was going on.
They're repealing this.
I don't know what was uh it's too hard to follow, so I've I figured that out, but that's what CNN's on.
That and a Malaysian airliner.
The intense uh uh gotta stop Trump stuff, they've kind of uh exhausted their emotional reservoir, and they've got to take some time to build it back up.
So the intensity of this stuff is slowed down a little bit.
This is more like it is after most elections.
The election's over and things died down, and you've got basically a month and a half uh for the year to end, and uh the intensity really vanishes.
And that didn't happen this year, and I'm now sensing it just now starting.
We'll see.
Uh don't misunderstand.
The left is still diluted, they're still deranged, they're still unhinged.
They're just regrouping out there now.
Here is Steve in Baldwin's New York.
It's great to have you on the EIB network, sir.
Hello.
Hey, Rush, how are you doing?
Just fine, sir.
Thank you.
Hey, you were talking earlier about getting rid of just New York and California?
Yeah.
It's not New York and California, it's New York City and LA County.
Those two by themselves gave her more than her margin of victory.
If you take those two out, she loses by almost 500,000 votes.
Is that right?
I haven't seen that anywhere.
There's a guy named David Leap, L E I P. He has a atlas of all the elections.
It's a great great resource, and just go in and just add them up.
So if you take New York City, so basically eight million, if you take those people out and the people in LA County out, then Trump wins the nationwide popular vote by 500,000?
By almost 500,000.
499,000 and 674.
Okay, so what in your mind, what is the value in knowing that and pointing it out?
It's prevent high population areas from dominating the country.
And that's that's what that is doing.
That that's what it's there for.
To prevent that from happening.
The popular vote from the president.
If you know this, you have probably seen all the different maps.
Mm-hmm that are out.
I saw a map, somebody sent it to me, and I unfortunately I don't have the web address in in front of me to tell you what it is.
But uh some guy's actually not a red and blue map, but actually's taken a topographical map of the United States, and in all the areas where Hillary won, he has darkened it.
Uh not by county, not by state, but by actual area.
And it is stunning when you look at the small, like you're pointing out the small pockets of this country that voted for Hillary Clinton with their their population centers.
But it is even more profound than the county by county red versus blue map that everybody is familiar with.
And what makes it you know really abundantly clear is that the Democrat Party literally has no support of any significance or consequence except in a small couple of areas on both coasts and in Chicago.
Correct.
It's really stunning, meaning they are they are totally out of touch with the way people in that part of the country live.
Exactly so.
