Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush Limbaugh Show podcast,
(00:25):
and greetings to you music lovers, thrill seekers and conversationalists
all across the Fruited plan. Welcome to the Russia Limbaugh Program.
Mister President, it is a distinct honor and privilege to
have you with us, and I want you to do
something for me, sir. Go ahead. I want you to
imagine you have just landed in a gleaming majestic air
Force one to the largest radio rally in history. Instead
(00:48):
of thousands cheering as you walk up to the stage,
there are millions and millions of patriots out there right now,
anxiously awaiting to hear from you. No doubt they're waving
Trump lags, wearing a bright red Maga hats proudly. This, sir,
is a mega Maga rally and we are all thrilled
to be with you today. We are so glad you're
(01:08):
doing better and welcome to the EIB Network. Well, I
want to thank you, Rush. You're a fantastic man, a
friend of mine. But before I really even knew you
as a friend, you were like a supporter and I said,
I know that guy's got a big audience, But I
never even knew the importance of what you do and
what you say, and now I do very well, and
(01:30):
it keeps us all in the game. And we just
got great poles out of you probably heard out of Arizona.
We're getting them out of Nevada. You know, the real poles,
not the fake poles. We're getting them out of North
Carolina looking really good. I think Pennsylvania's looking good. Florida
is looking great. It's all a big phony deal. They
have going rush and we're gonna win this. I think
(01:51):
it's gonna be a bigger win than we had four
years ago. Oh that would be great. I have great poles.
I have to tell you. From the moment that you're
a pair was announced, we have we've received We've never
had a response like this, sir, and I'm in my
thirty second year. We have never had a response like
We've had. Thousands and thousands of questions and comments for you.
(02:13):
You are. I hope you know how deeply loved you
are by so many Americans who have invested their hopes
and prayers for this country in you. They want to
see you in the White House for four more years.
And I'll tell you what I want I want them
to get to know you as I do. I want
(02:33):
to get I want I want them to know that
Donald Trump that I know you are one of the strongest,
the most unwavering, the most determined, loyal people I've ever met.
But you cared deeply about the country. You care about everybody.
And it's it's it's it's just a breathtaking thing. The
(02:55):
difference in you as portrayed in the media and who
you really are is breath taking it today. I want
people to get to know the Donald Trump that I know. Well.
I appreciate it. And you know when you suggested this,
I immediately jumped on it because your audience is is
the biggest I mean, it's just incredible. And we have
some great friends in Sean Hannity and so many others,
(03:17):
and you know, Mark and so many so many people
are so great to us, but we have so many
people that are so untruthful. And the biggest thing, and
the one thing I haven't figured out, is why if
we say we're going to create a strong military and
protect we're going to create a strong economy like we've
never had an economy prior to the plague, and now
(03:37):
we're building it up again, stronger than before. Watch it's
going to be stronger than before. We're almost at record
stock market. Nobody can believe that. In the we're rounding
the turn on the pandemic. And I'll have something to
say about that, because I'm telling you we have a cure,
more than just a therapeutic. We have a cure. But
so many things that we've done, and you know, no
(03:57):
matter what you do, they try and find fault, and
not only fault, vicious. They're vicious people. And you say,
why wouldn't they want to have good education, a good military,
or strong economy, safety security, Why would they want to
live like they live in Portland? And were they just
allow these agitators and anarchists to run the streets? Why
(04:19):
would they want that? That's the only thing I haven't
figured out. Why would they? And why would these big
companies like Concast. I call it Concast, it's Comcast, but
I call it Concast because it's a con job. That's
NBC mostly, But if you look at that or CNN,
which is so pathetic, why would they do that? Why
would they? Why would they want to have a country
that's in turmoil? Because they created. The fake news is
(04:43):
the worst thing we have going, you know, the lamestream
I call it the lamestream media. But you'd think that
they'd want to see great education, great country, gate security, strong,
don't want to see you responsible for it. They don't.
It's a crazy thing, rush, It's the one thing I've
I've never quite figure it out, you know. And they
become less wealthy, you know, to a large I said,
(05:04):
they become less wealthy, and they willing to give up
their wealth in order to see the country go to hell.
I don't Someday when you figure that out, you're gonna
let me know. Okay, I'll tell you. I'll tell you today.
I know exactly what this is. But before you know,
we've we've got a lot of questions for you from Mom,
from members of the audience. Before we dive into those,
you know, I need to ask you something that I've
not really had a chance to ask you prior before
(05:26):
you did this, before twenty fifteen, when you came down
the escalator and announced that Canada you had you get
a storybook life. You had an absolutely fabulous life. You
had a life that anybody would aspire to. You were
very successful, You were happy you were a media darling.
They loved you back then. Why did you decide to
run for president and put up with the day in
(05:48):
and day out maligning that you get because you did
not have to do this. I'll tell you it's such
a great question, and I do it again, even though
it's far worse. I never thought I'd be involved with
the Russia hoax or Ukraine hoax, or be impeached because
I made a phone call congratulating somebody that I never
met to or know or spoke to on becoming the
(06:09):
president of Ukraine, and all of a sudden you get impeached.
And it was a perfect phone call, you know, a
letter that we actually, fortunately we had to transcribe because
they made up the phone call. They said it was
totally different. Fortunately, or maybe I wouldn't be talking to
you right now in this capacity. At least, Fortunately we
had a transcribed It was transcribed the exact call. If
(06:29):
we didn't, they would have you know that, you know
what Shifts said, He stud it before Congress. He repeated
my call. It had no bearing on what I said.
It was a perfect phone call, and I got impeached
over I never knew it would be so unpleasant. But
nobody has done more in the last three and a
half years as president in the first three and a
half years that I have nobody. I mean, if you
(06:50):
look at rebuilding the military and the economy, and the
best employment numbers we've ever had, and we've cut regulations
to a point that's so incredible nobody's ever seen. If
you look at the veterans choice in the VA accountability,
you know, we had people in the VA that would
beat up our veterans and beat them up badly. You know,
they're they're infirmed, they're not well, they're not feeling well.
(07:13):
And that you had these animals in there that would
beat them up. We couldn't do anything about them. Now
with accountability, you have to account and we fire them
and worse, we get rid of them. And our vets
have been ninety one approval writing, the highest we've ever
had in the VA. You don't hear those bad stories
about the VA anymore like he used to. And now
they get a media doctor attention if they have to
(07:34):
wait online. I mean, but that's so many, so many
different things right to try where they can try medicines,
and I mean I can sort of give you an
example of that with the COVID, because I was in
not great shape and we have a medicine that that
healed me, that fixed me. It's a great medicine, and
had I not gotten it Rush, it would have been
(07:55):
in line for another year, probably before they brought it out.
Great company too, Great companies actually make it to you know,
make very similar things, but they both work equally well.
And we're going to send it. We're already sending it
a starting the process is hundreds of thousands of vials
and being sent to the hospitals all over the country.
People are going to get immediately better, like I did.
(08:16):
I mean, I feel better now than I did two
weeks ago. It's crazy, and I recovered immediately, almost immediately.
I might not have recovered at all from COVID. To me,
it's the biggest story. But the press doesn't even want
to report that. You know. They talk about the vaccines,
and the vaccines are very important, drush, But this is
more important because we can go into hospitals and clean
out the hospitals literally with people that the vaccines are
(08:40):
very important, it's just a different stage. Oh yeah, this
is the antibodies. This is the antibody and Regeneron's. It's
the most unbelievable thing I've ever seen. And I had
a meeting with doctors today. You know, it's always the
good thing about when you're president. Eleven doctors show up
and they're all ahead of Johns Hopkins and this and that.
(09:01):
They're great people. But Walter Reid is an incredible place,
and these eleven guys came in today. They showed me stats.
It's amazing. I don't know that I would have. I
don't know that I you know, I was not in
the greatest of shape. A day later, I was fine,
maybe perfect, but I was fine. But a couple of
days later and now I'm I'm free. I'm you know,
(09:24):
I feel perfect. I have no I'm not taking anything,
you know, I'm off any regiment that they gave me.
But it was primarily this one drug. And we're sending
that and the Eli Lily version of it, which is
very similar. We're sending that to all of our hospitals.
We're going to get people better. We got to get
it there fast. That's why I'm doing an emergency use authorization.
(09:44):
I got to get them to approve it really fast.
But I gave them my numbers to put in with
the other numbers that they already have, which are very good, excellent,
and it's you know, it's the most amazing thing. Again,
it's not rim deesse of here. Maybe that helps a
little bit, but rim disappears from not the same thing.
This is stuff that is so good. It just wiped
(10:06):
out the virus. It wiped it out. I'll tell you,
we're so happy. That a big story. To me, it
was scary when we heard that that you've tested positive
given your demographics. Um, you know, you were right there
in the in the number one target area, uh for
people and have trouble with this. And it's so you
sound you sound great. I've been I've I've been reading
(10:27):
that you got a hacking cough and that your voice
isn't you sound perfectly normal to me? Well, there's always
that little uh you know, that little lingering thing for
a couple of days. But no, I have, I have.
My voice is now perfect. I mean for a couple
of days. You know, you have it's called the lingering thing.
If you have a if you have hay fever, if
you have something you have that too a little bit,
(10:48):
but uh, no, it's this is the most amazing thing
that's happened. And I was asking the doctors today, eleven guys,
great people, you know, the heads of the biggest hospitals.
If it's amazing, I guess the president there's a lot
of power. But everybody shows up, what do you do.
I'm the head of Johns Hopkins or I'm the head
of stuff. You know. It's always like, but they're very
brilliant people. And I said, how bad was that? They said,
(11:11):
you could have been very bad. You were going into
a very bad face. And so it wasn't like it
was just gonna like with the kids where they get
it and they get sniffles and they're better two days later. Right,
this looks like it was going to be a big deal.
And you know what that means, right, that means bad
because I've lost five people, at least five people that
were friends of mine want in particular, like an incredible
(11:32):
guy who went in there, one into the hospital. He
was dead within three days. And I'm just saying that
we have something that will cure this now and cure
and without us, without Trump administration, this would never have happened.
We poured money into these secures, and we poured money
into the vaccines, and the vaccines are coming along Greade Rush,
(11:54):
I mean the vaccines, Johnson and Johnson, moderna Fazer, They're
all coming along. Grade a little bit political, you know,
they're afraid it's going to go too fast and I'll
get credit for it before the election. That's another thing
I wanted to You know, mister President, you have been forced,
because of media coverage, to tout your own successes. You
have been forced until like you just did in the
past five minutes here, and it rubs some people the
(12:17):
wrong way. They think you're bragging. They think that you're insecure,
that you need to constantly. Would you explain to people
why you find it necessary to tout your successes rather
than let somebody in the White House or a pr
type operation do it for you. Why do you find
it necessary to do yourself? Well, First of all, it's
such a great question and most people can't understand it.
(12:41):
As an example, I was nominated for two Nobel Peace
Prizes three three now three Now some guy from Italy
is nominated you. Oh that's good. Well, it won't be
written about when Obama got it. It was the biggest
story I remember very well. He didn't even know why
he got it. Get it over. He got his under come,
he got his under coming. He hadn't even done anything yet.
He didn't know. He couldn't explain why he got it.
(13:02):
But I can. And one is Middle East peace without
any blood, okay, and by the way, countries are lining up.
The other is if you look at Kosovo and Serbia,
they've been killing each other forever, and I got them
to be peace and you know, good stuff. And then
I just heard about the third Nobody even there wasn't
even on the news, okay. And you know, I joke
(13:23):
about it and speeches sometimes I'll joke about it. I say,
tell my wife, let's watch tonight. It'll be wonderful night.
And they don't. They don't even cover it. They don't
cover any good stuff with me, anything that's good. They
don't cover anything that's okay or or bad. I mean
they're bad. They make it sound like, you know, like
let's do the electric here thing. But it is the
(13:43):
most dishonest. The media are the most dishonest people I've
ever met. And that's why I go back to the original.
I just don't know why. I mean, they can't hate
somebody so much, but I guess they do. But they
do it with Republican conservatives. I mean, you've had it
before I came along, but never to I don't think,
never to this extent. You know, they say that nuke Kingbridge.
(14:05):
They said that the one that got worse than me
was Abraham Lincoln. I said, I disagree. Abraham Lincoln was
decimated by the press. I said, maybe he was, but
it couldn't be worse. If I do something good, they
make it look bad. If I do something okay, they
make it look like horrible, horrible. And the reason I
talk and I say it, you might as well talk
(14:26):
about it yourself, because nobody else will if I give
it to our very good people, Kaylee. And you know
we have a lot of good people at the wet House.
If I give it to them to go ahead, they
won't even they won't report it. And did you ever
see the way the press, the hostility of the press,
the way they scream at these very nice people. They'll
make just an ordinary statement and they'll start screaming like
(14:48):
a bunch of maniacs. The media, Well, there are reasons
for it. Just incredible. Let me tell you one of
the reasons that they are sick. You know, it's crazy. Good, Well,
they are there, you know, in a way they are.
I think they have been poisoned to an extent, and
I mean this folks poisoned by their own hatred. Here's
this is not the original reason. But we're into four
(15:11):
years now that they have tried everything they know to
get rid of you, and not a single thing, not
a single weapon, has worked. These people. If they want to,
mister President and new it's an example. They're able to
take out Sarah Palin's and they're able to take out
and destroy any Republican they choose. It took them seven
(15:31):
years to finally ruined George W. Bush and his reputation
the war in the Rock, but they did it. They
got his approval. Members. Now that the thirties you in
Zogby today are still at fifty one. They haven't landed
a dent, sir. They have not taken you off of
your agenda. They've they've maybe distracted you for now and then,
but they haven't stopped it. They can't believe it. They're
(15:53):
throwing everything, and so they are doubling down on doing
whatever they can to try to get rid of you,
just to prove that can. And it's frustrating this hect
that they haven't been able to. It's an amazing thing.
And I'm like you, I watched this coverage and I
asked me, how many of the American people realize without
being told, how basically dishonest and unfair this all is.
(16:17):
And you you, you hope that a majority of Americans
see it for what it is and react accordingly. But
I tell you, it's it's that and the fact that
you're an outsider. They never thought you were going to win.
They didn't even think you wanted to win. They thought
you were engaged in a pr stunt in the first place.
Then you're also implementing policies, sir, that they detest. Your
(16:39):
agenda is a small government, Well it was before the
pandemic hit. Your your agenda is basically pro freedom, pro liberty,
pro the American citizen. First, you want to make America.
Can you believe make America great against controversial? Who in
the world could find a problem with that? The sick
(17:00):
people have found to him, make America great again is
reason to destroy you. It doesn't make any sense. Well, Russia,
remember how big the wall was everything was the wall,
the wall, the wall, and it got bigger and bigger
because they figured there was no way to get it financed.
Because it's a massive you know, it's thousands of about
the whole thing is. It's a massive projects, one of
the biggest. It's actually one of the biggest projects government
(17:22):
projects ever. Anyway, So we're building the wall. We're up
to a three hundred and eighty miles of wall. Had
a huge impact. Nobody gets through this wall. This wall
is everything that Border Patrol wanted. I built it exactly.
I didn't even agree with him on certain parts of it,
but I think they were right. They had to have
sea through, they had to have this, they had to
have that. They have. It's lined up with all sorts
of wires and everything you can imagine. It is the best. Okay,
(17:45):
it's it's the best, and it's had an impact that
you wouldn't believe. And nobody thought I was going to
get it done. Now it's almost completed. It'll be completed
towards the end of the year, versuit, and it'll be
about five hundred and thirty five miles. We may even
ended beyond that. But you know, you have a lot
of natural barriers, rivers and mountains and other things that
(18:06):
really do a pretty good job. But we're going to
have it finished very soon. You don't even hear about
it anymore, and you don't hear about how great the
border numbers are. You know, people today, I ended catching release,
which was not easy because I had to go through
the Democrats, but I ended. You know, you used to
catch somebody who'd release them into our country and had
come back four years later, but nobody would ever come
back for a court case. It was the craziest thing.
(18:27):
You'd catch somebody, even a murderer, and then you'd release
them into our country and then you'd say, you have
to be back here in two and a half years
to go to trial, and nobody would come back. Only
the very dumbest would come back, okay, And that was
what I said. No, that was about one percent. And
it was crazy catch and release. I mean, you know,
there were many programs like that. We got rid of
(18:49):
most of them, and it's not easy to get rid
of them, you know, you had to go through all
sorts of hoops, but I got rid of catching release.
We have a very good border now. Now. Only people
that come in legally coming in. We have a well,
the wall made a tremendous difference. But you notice you
never hear about the wall anymore. Well tonally that not
only there have been two debates, sir, and in both
(19:09):
those debates you're first. In the vice presidential debate, there
have been two areas that have never been explored. Not
one question asked about. One's gun control of second Amendment.
The other is immigration. And that's that's Those are two
strong areas of yours where the American people are with
you by a massive majority support number. So they're not
(19:30):
even being brought up. They don't talk about immigration. We
have immigration down really good. Fact. I was going to
do an immigration bill. I have it all done, and
then my guy said, why bring it up? Sir? You
have the same policies that you're already implementing, and you've
you've you know, why should you go through the controversy
of it. I mean, we have a great The people
(19:51):
that wanted the wall generally love what I've done. I mean,
because well, we've done an immigration generally We've get a
couple of hardliners out there, you know, friends of yours.
But the people that wanted the wall. I've done far
more than I thought our immigration now because it wasn't
just there was the wall, but we had to cut
a lot of these crazy things out. I mean, you
have chained migration where somebody comes in illegally. Have we
(20:15):
have a killer who killed eight people on the West
Side Highway, ran over eight people. You know, a terrorist,
jihadist came in through the southern border and through chain migration.
The chain he brings it his mother, his father, his grandmother,
his aunts, his brothers, his uncles. He brings in all
(20:35):
these people. And I say, wait a minute. And what
we've done is incredible on immigration, you know, think of it.
You have killers that come in and because the chain migration,
they're allowed to bring other people in it. That's why
they're not asking you about this. They don't want to
talk to me about it. You know, so many things
like sanctuary cities. You know, the people in California hate
sanctuary cities. I don't know where it gets this political
(20:58):
stamina because the people in California, they see me all
the time. I think we'll do well in California. I mean,
you know, in theory, you don't win California because everybody
likes to vote three times. Okay, if you want to
know the truth, Yeah, I don't know if you ever
saw the list. We're going to get into that. The
whole thing is crazy. But the people they want to vote,
they vote numerous times, numerous times that it's disgraceful. But
(21:20):
the people in California, they don't like sanctuary cities. What
are you doing as sanctuous? You're protecting criminals? Who wants that?
And I've had so many people liberal friends of mine
from California, we'd love to get rid of sanctuary cities.
With that thug from as you know, Kate's Law, Remember
Kate's Law. We should have been you know, we tried
like hell to get it past, but we had the
(21:42):
you know, we left the filibuster. Okay, we should have
gotten rid of the filibuster only because I said, Schumer
is going to do I told Mitch, I said, Mitch.
I get along great with Mitch. We had the greatest
success in history on judges. We'll be up to three
hundred judges and two Supreme Court judges in now three.
Hopefully that'll go quickly. I think she's going to go
very quickly. So I have three Supreme Court judges. But
(22:04):
in the first term, that's never happened before. But I said,
the problem is, Mitch is as soon as the Democrats
do get in, you know, at some point they guess
they get in, they will blow up the filibust and
they'll they'll go nuclear, as you know, and that'll be
the end of the filibuster, and they'll approve stuff left,
you know, left and right fifty percent, they'll go left
and right. And that's the problem I had with it.
(22:26):
It's not that then at right they did it the
right way. Harry Reid. We got lucky because Harry Reid
thought that Hillary was going to win and she knocked
out the he out the filibuster for the judges. Although
I wouldn't have three hundred judges at up to judges,
they all thought Hillary was going to win. And that's
another reason why you remain so despised and hated. And
(22:46):
you know, it's not it's not you, per se. I mean,
some of it is. It's just the fact that you
came along and totally upended their grand plans for globalism,
changing the way ours affairs are run and organized. You
really just upset the apple cart in ways they never
(23:06):
dreamed possible. They thought the Hillary administration was going to
be Obama's third term, and you've just totally thrown them upside. Now,
now this leads me to another thing. I go back
and I compare the twenty sixteen campaign and at that point,
you don't have a record. You are running for president,
but you don't have a record, and you're having so
much fun out there. Every you can tell, every rally,
(23:29):
every appearance, every press encounter you have is just loads
of fun. Now you've got three and a half years
in almost four you've got a record that just infuriates
the Democrats and the media, which are one and the same.
And is it as much fun for you? Now? Is
(23:50):
it the whole idea of campaigning? Because now the frustration
I can hear the frustration. You have a great record,
your sense of achievement an accomplishment is incredible, and you
have to be the one to tout it, and it's
got to be frustrating for you. So it's such an
interesting question because I have done more. You know, we
have a list of things that we've done. Just go
(24:11):
down the list. Even Space Force, that's a big deal,
you know, first and seventy five years right, a new
branch of the United States military that by itself is
an achievement that you could just do that and you've
had a successful thing. Space Forces think of it. You know,
the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Ghostguard. We have Space Force.
And that's a big deal. And it's going to be
(24:33):
very important, especially as the future, you know, as it goes,
maybe the most important. But so many things I've done
and you don't. It's incredible people. You have to sell
it yourself because they don't want to talk about You
don't hear anything about Space Force. You know how big
a deal that is. You don't hear about any of
(24:54):
this stuff. They don't want to talk about it. But
I'll tell you the amazing thing that one thing I
really have learned and the people of our country are
smarter than the people that cover them because they get it.
How can I be in a position where I'm leading
in a lot of states. I mean, don't believe these
fake poles. These fake poles, I don't know if you
have a look at them. I don't even know why
they have to put it down. I think there's a
(25:15):
legal reason, but they put down where they interviewed eighteen
percent more Democrats than Republicans. Trump is losing by five.
Do you understand what I mean absolutely? I say these
all the time. Yeah I don't. I still don't know why,
you know, they I think there's a legal reason because
they always say who they interviewed. But when you look
down at what they call the tabs, it said one
of them said eighteen percent more Democrats. Another one said
(25:38):
fourteen percent. Well, let's assume the Democrats are going to
vote for you know, sleepy Joe, and which is ridiculous
because Joe shouldn't be a candidate. Joel chose in no
condition to be a candidate. Well, you know, nicely, or
we can say it badly. The twenty fifth Amendment. That
crazy Nancy's playing around. She's gone crazy. She's a nut job.
But this twenty fifth Amendment, I think they did so
(26:00):
they can get Kamala and replay exactly. That's exactly what
it is. It's a trial run to see if they
can kick Biden out of it. That's exactly right, sir,
he's exactly. It's not aimed at you. That was the
first thing I thought of. And by the way, the
Republicans have been really very good to me. One thing
the Republicans have to do, though, they have to get tougher.
We have some great ones, do you know that Jim
(26:20):
Jordan and Meadows has been great? A lot of them,
A lot of them have been great. But but the
Republicans have to get tougher. The Democrats play a much
dirtier game they don't, you know, like like impeaching on
a phone call. Never forget sir, did you call the
President of Ukraine? Yeah? I did? Why just to congratulate?
(26:41):
I had five guys begging me to call him to congratulate.
I've never met him before, you know, what do I care?
So they said, did you call the president? Yes? Well,
what did you say? I said, I don't know. A
couple of months ago I called him to congratulate him
because he became president. Boy, what's the word, sir? They
want to impeach you for that call. I said, peach
me for the call. It peach me for something, but
(27:02):
you can't it beach me. What did I do? I said? Congratulations.
It's it's unbelievable. You know. By the way, when they
found out they believed the shift version of the call,
which he made up standing in front of Congress. It
was a real crook. He made it up. You know,
he said eight times quid pro quell. Think of what
eight times is that one means? Eight times you've asked
(27:22):
for something illegal or a call? Right, Think of what
that means. The person on the other side of the
call if you if you did it once, maybe twice,
maybe if you did it eight times, they think you're
certifiably insane. Right, So SHIFT made up the call, and
I said, well, there's nothing wrong with the call. We
actually took the call because we had the transcript. Fortunately
(27:43):
we didn't have a transcript. I don't know would have
been my word against a lot of a lot of
these crooked people. But if I actually sent it to
the Department of Justice, to some division and they called up,
they said to my people, okay, so what are we
looking for here? In other words, you know, these are
(28:04):
guys that look at drug deals and murders, and they
go like, okay, explain to us what are we supposed
to In other words, you after having read the call,
they say, what the hell is wrong with this thing? Right?
They impeached me, So you have to be They are meaner,
and they are but they're bad policy, open borders, sanctuarious cities,
(28:27):
high taxes. Let me try to simplify this. You know.
One of the things I've tried to do, learned to
do over the course of the years is to make
the complex understandable. I think this election, sir, is really
simple to explain to particularly people who are I'm decided,
and I don't know how many of those there are.
I frankly don't know how you can't be decided by them.
(28:48):
But this election is really it boils down to two propositions.
One is it's between a man you, who believes America
is good and decent and great against people against people
who are behind Joe Biden who think America isn't good.
(29:10):
They think America is unjust any immoral from the days
of our founding, and they are trying to undermine and
transform this country as founded. And that's why you are undermined,
and that's why your successes are hidden. That's why your
successes are distorted and lied about it. It's no more
complicated than that. If folks, if you love this country,
(29:31):
if you love America the America you think exists, you
don't have a choice in this election, your only choice
as President Trump. If you don't support President Trump here,
you are going to end up facilitating the transformation of
America into a country it was never intended to be.
You're gonna have thirteen dollars a gallon gasoline with the
Green New Deal. You're going to have so much disruption
(29:54):
in your life that you can't possibly imagine. And don't
doubt me. They're not going to be honest with you
about this, But that's really what this is about. You
are good, you believe America is good. You believe America
is great. You want to keep it that way, and
you want to solidify it, and you want America's greatness
to be enshrined and empowered for decades beyond you. And
(30:15):
America has great potential too because any shortcomings, we can
solve the shortcomings, but they're going to make them much shorter.
I mean, America has tremendous potential when you look at
what we've done with energy, and they want to take
that advantage away and give it to these other countries
that are going to always have energy. When you look
at the environment, I'm very important. I love the environment.
(30:37):
The environment. I want clean there. I want clean water
I want, you know, and you shouldn't even have to
say that. You shouldn't have to say everybody wants clean
the fact that they're out there claiming you want dirty
water and dirty you shouldn't even have to say you
like clean water. Yeah, it's outrageous. Like the forest fires
in California, if we had forest management, you wouldn't have
any forest far as you know in Europe, you go there,
(30:58):
they live, they have far nations, they call them Austria,
different places. They don't have the woods burning down, and
their trees are more explosive than ours, meaning explosive from
potential fire. They have trees and they you know, they
maintain their forests and they put cuts in between so
if they have a fire, it doesn't burn down half
a million acres. They do it properly. Our people don't
(31:23):
do that. And then we talk about, you know, they
want our air clean, but they don't talk about China, Russia, India,
these other countries where the pollution is massive going up.
So we have a clean spot on a massive planet.
We have a clean spot, which is a small percentage
of the of the planet, a very small percentage of
the planet. And then China is spewing crap and Russia
(31:46):
and all of these other India And did you ever
see what they dump into the ocean that floats into California?
Exactly right far we end up cleaning it up. And
then they say, well, you know, the environment, the environments
could tell you. I could tell you hundreds of stories.
You know, a lot of what you and I talk
about is really based on common sense. You know, people say,
(32:07):
are you a conservative? Say, I'm based on common sense
and love, love of and for country and people. Yeah,
that's true, It's very true. Now, I got to get
to some questions we've had, you know, and tell you something, sir.
When we went through the questions, and literally, I'm telling you,
I've never had a response like you generated when your
appearance was announced. It's the most amazing thing, sir. Well,
(32:31):
you don't want to see that, you know what. I
think you're going to see that come November third and
a little before that, because our people don't want to
send in these fake ballots that are being fraudulent, fraudulently
made all over the plasure. You get into that. But
you know what, yeah, probably one of the most mentioned
topics in the questions was healthcare people are scared. Let
(32:53):
me give you a sample question. Dear President Trump, this
is a woman in Massachuset's named Kathy. I'm glad that
you in the first lay they are recovering from COVID.
So happy you are our president. Thank you for all
you do to defend this questions about healthcare and pre
existing conditions. It very important to me and a lot
(33:13):
of Americans. I believe you said pre existing conditions will
be covered in your healthcare plan, but please could you
explain this a little more because there are a lot
of people saying that you're not going to cover pre
existing conditions, and you need to get your message out
since the Democrats are trying to malign you on this,
and we need to know. Pre existing condition are a
(33:34):
big deal. Does your plan cover them? So? The Democrats
are vicious and they lie, and what they do is
as an example, healthcare and other things. They have me
standing at a grave of a beautiful soldier at an
old cemetery, magnificent cemetery. And nobody respects soldiers more than
I do, especially whether you're talking about live soldiers or
(33:57):
soldiers that gave their lives. And they have a source
say these are suckers and losers. This was for a
magazine that's third rate, you know, super liberal Obama magazine,
and it's a quote. They took that quote from one source.
I have twenty five people that verbally that you know,
(34:17):
on the record, said that was never said. Who would
ever say that? Only an animal would say that. I
don't know if I know some very bad people. Nobody
do I know that would say a thing like that.
They put it in ads, They make it like I
said it. I never said, just the opposite. I've taken
care of the military better than anybody. They do the
same thing with healthcare. They will make up a statement
that's so bad now pre existing conditions. I'm totally for it,
(34:39):
but I'm against Obamacare because Obamacare is too expensive. I
already got rid of the individual mandate, which was the
worst part of Obamacare. That's where you had to pay
a fortune for the privilege of not paying for bad
health insurance. You understand that. So I got rid of it.
That I got rid of it through the law. I
got rid of it in our tax decreased. We got
to tax the biggest tax decrease in the history of
(35:01):
our country. We would have never been able to build
up the economy if we didn't get that. But one
of the things I got in there, I got rid
of the individual mandate. And what I want to do
is and we're fighting to terminate sort of. I have
terminated Obamacare, because once you get rid of the individual mandate,
is so longer Obamacare. But I had a choice to
(35:21):
make rush. It was a big choice. Do I maintain Obamacare,
the remnants of Obamacare after the the mandate? Do I
maintain it well? Or do I run it badly? I
could have done it either way. I have very good
people over there, alex Asar and see the whole group.
I said, you know what, we got to run it
as well as it can be run. I have no choice.
(35:41):
I could have run it really badly and made everybody angry.
But I didn't do that. I ran it really well.
Knowing that it's run really well, it's still no good.
You know, it's still not good. It's much better than
when they ran it. They couldn't even do Remember they
spent fifty million dollars or five billion dollars on the server.
If you remember, they couldn't get the server right. I
do remember, I do remember. But there still is this
(36:02):
confusion about pre existing conditions out there, And yeah, yeah,
it's a frustrating thing because it's it's not even the
correct title for what the plan does. But that's what
people think, and so that's how you have to deal
with it. It's correct. But what I what they do
is they love to say that I'm going to get
rid of pre existing conditions. No, I want to terminate
Obamacare and then come up with a great and we
(36:25):
have it. Come up with a great healthcare plan that's
much less expensive and does include people with pre existing conditions.
That's what I want to do. Now. They'll also say
about Social Security, you need a Republican Senate for that,
and you need a Republican House. That's right in order
to do that in order. Well, what will happen is
if we win, the Democrats will do something to help
(36:46):
get healthcare. I mean they're going to come along because
they have no choice. They're going to come along. They
have no choice. I will say one thing, you know,
we talk about unity because I'd like to see the
country come together. It's not as easy as people think.
But just part to the plague coming in from China.
When the plague came in from China. People were calling,
we had the lowest unemployment we've ever had. We had
(37:07):
the best employment that we were up to one hundred
and sixty million people employee. We never were even close.
Everybody had a job. We had the lowest African American
unemployment in history since records have been kept. That's right, Rush.
So we had the best numbers ever. We had the
highest stock market. Although I tell you we're inches away
(37:28):
right now for people's four oh one case. If they
held onto their stocks, they're they're very wealthy right now.
And our economy is doing really amazing. I mean, considering
that we're in the know this pandemic thing sent to
us by China. But if you look at what we've done,
and people were calling me Rush in terms of bringing
our country together that I really had never heard from before.
(37:51):
In other words, they were not interested, and they were saying, like,
let's start getting together. It was coming together. Success was
bringing our country together there and then we got hit
by the China plague. But success, Rush, even you might
be surprised to hear that. People that you would have said,
in no way, we're calling and saying can we get together?
(38:11):
And it was coming together because success, and I've always
said success will bring us together. Our military is strong.
When I took over, we had no ammunition. We had
a case where a general, a certain general, highly overrated general,
told me, we have no ammunition. And I said, what
are you talking about? I say, no president should ever
be told that again. Now we have someone I heard
(38:33):
you say that. I was frankly surprised that we were
low on ammo. I mean, I don't think I've ever
heard that we had. He said, sir, we have no ammunition, okay,
And I said, keep that very quiet. And then we
started building up. And now we have new rockets, new missiles.
We have stuff the likes of which nobody Russia dreams
of the stuff that we have. China dreams of the
(38:53):
stuff that we have rush and we can't talk about it,
and we shouldn't talk about it. We have things that
and hope to god we never have to use it.
Our nuclear is all tippy top now. Uh. And you
don't want to even say it, you know, we have
no choice but to say it. We were so far
behind they if you look, I called, oh Biden, Obama
(39:15):
and Biden. What they did to our military was it
just was horrible and economy. I mean, they were telling
everybody that we need to adapt our expectations to a
new era of decline. That's right. No, Manufacturing America's best
days are behind this. I mean it was outrageous. And
you know GDP one and a half percent max every year, right, No,
we were, we were, but it was coming together, Rush
(39:37):
And I'm telling you and you you would be a skeptic,
maybe almost more than oh, I know, it was coming together.
I am a skep together for the first time, for
the first time. I am a skeptic on this. Believe
me more than you know. I think that's true. I
got another question for you, mister President. This is Marion, Missouri.
This is our second most mentioned topic that people want
(39:59):
to hear you address, mister President. Drives me crazy that
the Democrats can call all of us out here racist
and sexist just because we don't agree with them. It's
the easiest thing in the world to call somebody racist
because nobody wants to be racist or anti anything, and
we aren't racist. Why did Democrats get away with it, sir?
(40:19):
And how do Republicans say enough is enough? We are
tired of being called evil racist, when all we want
is for all Americans to be free, to have the
blessed opportunity this constitution and country offers everybody. We want
a healthy and say future, and we love everybody. How
do we deal with this, sir? How do we finally
(40:41):
shut this down? What would you tell? I've watched this
for a long time. I've had it. I've probably been
a victim of it, You and I and a couple
of others more than anybody, and we're just the opposite.
When they give up, when we're beating them, they have
nothing else to fall back on but the word racist,
and that's always That means that when you're winning and
(41:03):
you're just knocking the hell out of him, they have
nothing else to say. They call you a racist. And
this has been going on for decades. I don't know
that you're going to stop it, but people are wise
to it, and people are rolling their eyes now, they're
rolling their eyes. It is just an incredible thing. The
way they use the race word, the racist word is
is actually disgusting. I was asked by Chris Wallace whose
(41:27):
third Rate. I was asked by him. He was protecting
Biden the other night. It was pathetic. I couldn't even
ask him, why did you get three and a half
billion dollars from the mayor of the mayor's wife of Moscow?
Why did you say a billion dollars unless you get
rid of the prosecutor and then you give him the
billion dollars? And Chris Wallace was and he was choking
like a dog. He wasn't able to answer, and Chris
(41:48):
Wallace would go in and save him every time. That
whole thing was disgraceful. Well, you know what we're gonna
do today. You know we're gonna do. We're gonna give
you a chance to actually respond to Joe Biden, because
you're right, the raiders of these debates are never asking
Biden to explain himself. What do you mean by that, sir?
They're not asking you to explain Biden. They're asking you
(42:09):
to explain you. So I have some Joe Biden sound
bites here anywhere from thirteen to seventeen seconds, that no
moderator will ever ask you to respond to. And as such,
the American people don't know that he has said these things.
Oh yeah, let's let's try one. This is from December thirtieth,
twenty nineteen and he is in Dairy, New Hampshire telling
(42:33):
coal miners to forget coal mining and learn how to code.
Anybody can go down three hundred to three thousand feet
in the mind, sure, and how can learn how to
program as well? Give me a break. Anybody who can
throw coal into a furnace can learn how to program.
For GOTSI are you're putting down coal miners. You never
get asked about it. You never hear these sound bites
(42:54):
anywhere in the media. What do you think of that? Well,
I think it's terrible. And you could look at so
many other things. Look at Frakie and he went for
a whole year saying, no way, they'll be fracking, mark
my words, there will not be fracking. And so did Kamala.
You know Kamala, she's another great one. And they talk
about fresh and listen to Willie Brown. Willie Brown told
(43:15):
her not to accept this job, and she did it anyway.
So I thought you was. Mike beat her so badly
the other night. But she's just not good at what
she did. Hey, don't forget she started off went she
only went down in the polls. That's usually not the
person you want to pick. The run for vice president anyway.
But to both of them, they talk about fracking like
it was the greatest sin on earth. Then they get
(43:35):
the nomination and now they're talking about they wanted to fracking.
But you know, I find it policy always always follow
their first words because that's where they're going. They have
no choice. They agreed with Bernie Sanders and all the
people in the manifesto. And if you read that manifesto,
that manifesto is further left than Bernie Sanders, much further
left than Bernie Sanders. You know, usually you think they
(43:57):
take them right. Bernie took them left. He took them
left of where he was. But if you look at
the fracking, the coal, you could say the call. Remember Hillary,
three weeks before she went to West Virginia, she was
knocking the hell out of Call and then she forgot
she had to go to West Virginia. So she goes
to West Virginia and she sat at the table with
(44:18):
the miners and it was just the end of her
when she knocked, well, well, you know what I think
it would do with coal now, with clean coal is amazing.
You know, we have more than anybody. But what they
do with clean coal is amazing. We have more energy
than anybody, and these other countries want to take it
away with the Paris Accord and all of this. They
want to take away our wealth, They want to take
(44:39):
away our jobs, our companies. It is disgraceful. You know,
explain fracking to people, sir, because it's a term that's
thrown out there, and I know what it is. I
can explain it. A lot of people can, but a
lot of people don't know what it is and why
it's so outrageous that they will not commit and they
will not get their story straight whether or not they're
going to ban it. What is it? Well, basically, it's
(45:00):
getting energy out of the ground really efficiently and getting
every drop of it and it's created wealth for a
country like you wouldn't believe it. It's it's really been
over the last small number of years that that's really become.
You know, you used to see these massive oil wells
and you know you can basically go in and drills
in the shale sideways. They can drill up and down
(45:22):
and around. It's unbelievable if you ever watched this process
and they just suck stuff out of the ground that
is it's just incredible the technology and for whatever reason,
for our country. You know, we've become the biggest oil
producer in the world right now by far, not even
a contest. We're bigger than Russia, bigger than Saudi Arabia,
(45:45):
and to a level that nobody can believe it. I
saved the industry six seven months ago when our oil
drop because of the pandemic. I got Russia and Saudi
Arabia together. You know, it's good to get along with countries.
Not necessarily a bad thing. Russia, you know, you want
to say that, and they cut ten million barrels a day.
It's actually more than that, but they cut, and we
save the oil. We save ten million jobs in this country.
(46:08):
And yet everybody has cheap gasoline. Look at the gasoline
at two dollars a gallon. Nobody thought that would be possible.
That's better than a tax cut. So, you know, if
you want to know the truth, when you know, when
gas used to go up to five to six dollars,
and people will say, oh, our country, and people would
they couldn't buy cars, they couldn't do anything. We have
very inexpensive gasoline, and yet it's high enough that we
have our energy jobs. We have millions and millions of
(46:31):
energy jobs in Texas, in North Dakota and Oklahoma and Pennsylvania.
So Biden goes and do you notice they never talk
about fracking. So he said, no fracking, and he's in Pennsylvania.
They're going to ban it. Yeah, and they want like
they're going to stock the court. They will not confirm.
You know what you want to tell Amy Conny Barrett
that she's not going to answer any questions about how
(46:52):
she will rule until after she's confirmed. No. I know,
it's incredible what he said yesterday. I couldn't believe it.
And that's such a big thing. But think of it.
He's in Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is a big, big fracking thing,
some million jobs. It's tremendous energy. They have low energy cars,
and they won't admit what they're gonna do, and they won't.
But he said just the opposite. He said there'll be
(47:12):
no no fracking, and then once he gets to Pennsylvania
he said, no, they'll be fracking. I couldn't get away
with that, nobody could get away with it. But they
let him. They don't even ask him a question about fracking.
I mean they don't. They don't say to him, well,
wait a minute, you said you won't frack, and now
you're saying you're gonna frek because if Pennsylvania believe that,
they couldn't vote for him, because he'd put Pennsylvania out
(47:33):
of business along with other Ohio and other places. Let's
go to another Biden sound bite. This is from May
of this year. He was on radio program called A
Breakfast Club with my old buddy Charlotmagne, the God, and
he said to Biden, you gotta come back and see us.
It's a long wave of November. We got more questions
for you. You got more questions, y if you have
(47:54):
a problem figuring out whether you're Fremi or Trump and
you ain't black, and there you go. If you got
a problem figuring out one of you from me or Trump,
you ain't feel insulted, free minded, open minded African Americans
and never gets called up. You try that, it doesn't
get called I will say this though, the black community
(48:14):
gets it. They don't dig them, they don't like them,
they don't like them. And I'm getting numbers. You know,
we're twenty percent, twenty two percent, which not that I'm
proud of that because it should be one hundred percent.
But you know, if you look at what I've done
for criminal justice reform, Obama couldn't get criminal justice reform done.
I did prison reform. The small colleges and universities historically black,
(48:37):
what I've done, I got them funded. They were coming
back every year, hat in hand, every year, begging for money,
and I got them taken care for a ten year period,
all funded, fully funded. What I've done is and then
with Tim Scott, we did the Opportunity zones, which is
the greatest, I mean, the most incredible thing for the
Black community, the African American community, which and everything else. No,
(49:01):
I've done more, and I say it, and you know,
at first people said, oh, it's too much to say.
I said, I've done more for the black community than
anybody since Abraham Lincoln. And it's true. Nobody's done what
I've done. But you know, they don't like Biden. They
don't like Biden. He did the Superpredator stuff. You know,
he was the Superpredator kid. Listen to this one. Now,
(49:23):
this is this is August fourteenth, twenty twelve, is eight
years ago. He's vice president. It's a campaign event. He's
talking about Mitt Romney and Paul Ryant. Here, he's gonna
let the big banks once again write their own rules
on Chain Wall Street. They're gonna put you all back
in Chase, They're gonna put you all back in that
(49:45):
black audience. We're gonna put you all back in Change
eight years ago. I don't understand why it's even a contest.
These kind of things ought to be automatic disqualifiers. But
he's a different guy there. You know, you can hear
by the way he talks. He's out of it. Look,
he's out of it. Now. We can't have a president
that's out of it. Because I meet with she, and
I meet with Putin, I meet with all of them.
He wasn't out of it there. He knew exactly what
(50:07):
he was saying there, right, your point, that's right. He's
a different guys. He's out of it. He's a he's
in a daze. I look at the things he says,
I look at what he says. I look at the
way he says that he's in a days And it's
not because he's seventy eight or whatever he is, Because
I know guys that are ninety two. Bernie Marcus from
home depot. He's one hundred percent sharp. But Joe is
(50:28):
just something wrong. We can't have that well. But he
made it through the debate. He made it through ninety
minutes of that debate without betraying any of the metal limitations.
I agree, but he was not able to answer the
Russia thing, and he was choking, and he was not
able to answer the billion dollars prosecutor thing. You did
(50:50):
kind of bail him out. And the way he started
to fade and you you kept talking at him, I
think he was now, mister President. Some of you tweeted
about this. When I all this, this blew my mind.
It literally blew my mind. This is a gallop. Pole
found that fifty six percent of the American people say
they are better off today even during the pandemic then
(51:15):
they were four years ago. That's gunning to me. That's
the highest number on record, I know, highest number ever
recorded that they're better enough today that they were at
any time before during a pandemic. And that's what I've built,
and we've built this and the only reason we're doing
well is because the foundation was so strong. Rush the foundation.
If we didn't have a strong foundation, you'd be nineteen
(51:37):
twenty nine, and if he got in, you'll be nineteen
twenty nine. Because he's going to raise everybody's taxes. They
don't talk about that either. He's going to raise everybody's taxes.
And you know what else, they never talk about something
that I think is a very very important thing, the
Second Amendment. They don't say that he's going to take
away your guns. He's going they never talk about it.
Never comes up in a debate that an immigration. Those
(51:59):
two subjects never come up. They haven't come up at
either of the debates. Yet. That's right, that's right. So
it's you know, it's pretty crazy. It's it's amazing that
here we sit in the White House every once in
a while and say it's not fair the way I
get treated, And then I'm sitting in the Oval. I'll say, oh,
this is the Oval Office. You're there, and they're not.
The people of this country are really smart and they
(52:20):
do get it, and they can do everything they can.
And again, the only thing is, I don't know why
they do it, but they do it. They're very dishonest
and evil in many ways, but well, these people people
of the country get it. They do. But they also
They love you, mister President seriously. Now they know that
you are the only person standing in the way of
(52:43):
the left's efforts to undermine America and turn it into
something it was. I mean, they're scared to death, scared
to death of what's going to happen if you lose.
They're scared to death of what's going to happen if
somehow these people can harm you. They want you to
have a deep understanding of how much you mean to them,
(53:04):
how important you are to them in preserving the American
way of life. It is more important because it's at risk.
The American way of life is at risk, and you, sir,
are the only man standing in the way of people
destroying that. This is what millions and millions and millions
(53:26):
of Americans think. It's got to be a big burden
on you. But well, I'm glad you said it, because
if I say it, and you said before something that,
why do you say it yourself? Because I have to,
and because nobody else will say it. You know, I
tell that to people, you might as well say it
yourself because nobody else is going to say it. I
don't like saying it. I wish other people would say it,
and I love that you can say it. But the
(53:47):
truth is, I am a wall, just like the WARWIP building.
I'm a wall in between this incredible thing that has
such potential. We have something with such potential. You have
no idea, even you might, I'd understand. The level of
potential of this country is incredible. The people are incredible,
the resources. You know, we have wealthy land, We're on
(54:08):
top of land. They want to take it away from us.
They want to take our wealth away. They want to
take our jobs away, our factories away. They want us
to be in the same position. You know, we're born
on very, very energy. You look at the energy we have,
more than anybody in the world. You look at they
want to take all of these advantages that we have
over other countries and throw them away. And you know,
(54:32):
we have such incredible potential and they want to. I
am a wall between the potential of this country to
be better than ever before and a country that will
become a Third World country of Venezuela. You know, I
used to say it could be Venezuela. I used to
say it halfheartedly. It's true, It'll be just a massive
version version. If you look at Venezuela. It's a massive
(54:55):
version of Venezuela. Venezuela. Will you remember Venezuela twenty You
get a lot of well, but most people don't know
what Venezuela is. It's not that Azuela has gone so bad.
They don't have food, they don't have water, they don't
have medicine. They have lots of wealth too, they have oil,
but they have lots of wealth, but they have nothing.
They've gone socialist and probably more if you look at Kamala,
(55:18):
that's more than social You know, she's further left than
crazy Bernie. And this is what they want. They wanted her.
I don't know why. I don't know if they're happy
with her. I think she's a because she couldn't win
on her own, sir, they had to do this to
get her. You're you nailed it earlier when you said
Pelosi's twenty fifth amendment gambit is actually a trial run
(55:41):
at getting rid of Biden. That's what they want. They
want her in the overlap because she's going to be
the vessel for the AOCS and the Bernie Sanders agenda
and the far left. She could know, she didn't. She
got out of the Democrat primaries before a single vote
was cast. That's how badly she was doing. That's right,
she was so bad he left before Iowa. And look
(56:02):
at Iowa, by the way, you remember the Iowa. Nobody
even knows to this day who won Iowa. Right, they
went with this scheme that now they want them multiply
times a thousand on the voting stuff. And way do
you see I'm sure that you'll have a question about that,
but way do you see how bad the ballots think?
You know, all over the country, thousands of ballots are
being thrown away and defrauded and cut up. And when
(56:25):
they talk about other countries coming in, it's a lot
easier for them to print illegal ballots. I guess you'd
say counterfeit ballots. And it is some of the other
things that you're talking about, But this whole it's a
one scary thing. When they send out millions and millions
of ballots, and you say, who's sending them, where they're
sending them, who's bringing them, who's reporting them, who's signing them.
(56:50):
I mean, millions and millions of ballots. It's a disgrace.
And look at all of the bad things that have
happened over the last year with the ballots. Look at
look at Calin Maloney's race in New York, A small
race where the examples, the examples are all over the country.
I've got a couple, I have a couple. I want
to run by you. But may I ask you to
(57:12):
do a favor for me. Yes, I want you to
take just a forty five or sixty second break here
while I share something with you. Then you can react
to it. But it's going to take me about a
minute to go through it because I love fascinating piece.
It's a It's a piece in the Federalist from October nineteenth.
Is that right? Yeah? And it's by David Sound the
(57:34):
headline I didn't vote for Trump in twenty sixteen, but
I would crawl over broken glass to vote for him now.
I don't care about the toe of his tweets or
if his opponents think he's rude. I've seen that he
is a patriot who genuinely loves the United States of
America and its people. And then he lists and you
can't do this. We've been talking, but I'm going to
(57:56):
do this. He lists your first term accomplishments, and how
impressive they are building the strongest US economy in my lifetime.
He writes through historic business and personal tax cuts, resulting
in millions of jobs created, record law unemployment. He cut
federal government regulations that had a stranglehold on American business, innovators,
(58:18):
and entrepreneurs. He confronted the Chai Coom's trade abuses and
negotiated fair trade deals with Canada, Mexico, South Korea, and Japan.
He eliminated the Obamacare individual mandate, which equals freedom in healthcare.
He rebuilt the military through investments in our defense capabilities,
as well as secured the largest military pay raise in
(58:40):
a decade. He nominated and confirmed more solid conservative Circuit
court judges than any other first term administration, nominating and
fighting for the confirmation of two originalists Gorsuch bred Kavanaugh
to the Supreme Court, then nominating Amy Coney Barrett to
fill the vacancy left by Ruth Bader Ginsberg, and finally
(59:02):
moving the US Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem. Your first
term record is truly outstanding, and it's still being made.
Your record is still being written. You are still president.
You are still implementing your agenda despite this opposition, and
I wanted to share this with it because this guy
did not vote for you four years ago and now
(59:23):
he can't wait to Well, I'm going to get that one.
I'm gonna have to put that one up pretty soon.
But you know, look, I'm honored by it, by it,
and with time, more and more people see the things
we've done. I put out lists and the pages and
pages long we've done. We've done a job and I'm
very honored by it, and I'm very proud of it.
We've helped a lot of people. We've helped a lot
(59:44):
of people, you know, on the pandemic. I was telling
you about this medicine. I'm so proud of it. People
don't want to write about it, but that's okay. But
this is better than the vaccine, and it's going out
literally as we speak. We have the US military logistics.
They're bringing it out. This is such a big thing.
But we have done such a good job on the pandemic.
(01:00:07):
We get zero credit. You know, We've fed these governors
whose shelves were empty, and our shelves were empty too.
I say, our cupboard was bare, and we filled it
up with all sorts of stuff, and we send it
all over the United States in New York. We built
him convention centers that they should have used. We sent
ships that they should have used instead of putting old
(01:00:27):
people with other people that were sick, and a lot
of problems were caused, as you know, but we had
we did such a job. We did such a great
job and made some governors look great. And by the way,
they all we have our phone calls were fifty governors.
They're all saying thank you, thank you, thank you. Rarely
do we have anybody speak up. But when they do,
we take care of them. And then they'll go and
(01:00:48):
they'll speak to the press and they'll say, well, were
the president was, Okay, you know what we've done for
them with the ventilators. The ventilators were an impossible situation.
We now build more ventilators by five times, and anybody
else that we're supplying them to the world, and they're
very complicated, expensive, you know, etcetera, etcetera. But we've done
a great job. Well that's another thing. There's a massive
(01:01:10):
remobilization of American industry. Yeah, one of the biggest, I
guess the biggest, they say since the Second World War.
But but you know what this is the biggest of all.
If the regeneron and the lily, you know, comparable drug
turns out, this is a cure, This is a therapeutic
(01:01:31):
call what you want, I can tell you it's a cure.
And I'm talking to you today because of it. And
you know, because I think I could have been a
bed I could have been a bad victim, my fit
certain categories that aren't so great. Okay, then you better
be careful too, Okay, but but you won't. I'm telling you,
this is a a total game changer. It's so good
(01:01:52):
and nobody else would have had it. You know, FDA
is approving things in one week that used to take
three years. And that's only because I'm bugging them, like
you know, I go, I'd drive them crazy, I guess,
but that's okay. But FDA Food and Drug Administration, it's
approving things that RUSH would have taken years and I'm
getting them in a matter of weeks and months. And
(01:02:12):
they're great things. But this is the greatest of them all.
If this works out, and I'm I'm very sure it's
going to well, I hope it does. Again, You're you're
you're writing, you're writing history with this. Uh, let me
venture into another area. It was announced by the Attorney
in General that his investigator, UM, the attorney looking into
(01:02:34):
the the coup run against you, will not have any
announcements that he results, and he before the election. This
is disappointing. I cannot tell you when was this announced rush.
I think I've got the story here in the snack.
I thought it was. I think it's terrible. Fairly recently
that I think it's terrible. Well, it is because these
(01:02:55):
are these are people. This is the biggest political scan
in the history of this country, certainly our lifetimes. That's
the case. I'm very disappointed. I think it's a terrible thing.
And I'll say it to his face here. It is
Bartel's Republicans Durham report will not be ready by election.
That came out today. That's a disgrace. I think it's
a disgrace. It's an embarrassment. I don't have the words
(01:03:17):
to express my anger. I mean, I'm not saying I'm surprised.
I'm through. I've had to go through it twice now
with elections, and yet they see this is what I
mean with the Republicans. They don't play the tough game.
They don't play the tough game. If this were the
other side, you would have had twenty five people in
jail for the rest of their lives with what we found.
Oh that you tried something like this against any of them?
(01:03:40):
Heck yes, Oh, are you kidding me? You would have
been twenty Look at me. I had to beat off
I had to beat off the phony Muller Report. I
had to beat off all this stuff. I had to
beat off impeachment. I had to beat off Congress everything else.
They then send it to New York, which is all political.
They send it into New York, the same stuff into
New York. You have to beat that off. You know,
(01:04:00):
at New York, all over they don't stop. This is
a disgrace if that just came out, and you know,
I purposely tried to stay away from it because they
all say it would be better if I'm not involved.
Where have you declassified everything about this? Yet? I fully
declassified everything. Everything's been declassified. They have so much information
(01:04:22):
they didn't need any more than Frankly, mister Horowitz, who
was an Obama appointment. He wrote a reporter on Kobe
that was so bad. It was so bad. I've never
seen anything like it. And they should have gone after
him just on that and became too You know, it
took seven hundred thousand dollars from Hillary Clint. I don't
know how these people are still on cable TV lying
(01:04:43):
through their teeth about all of this, still getting paid
to carry forth that. If that's the case. And you
have to understand, I'm hearing this for the first time,
and I said, it's impossible. So it's okay for me
to have to go through investigations during an election, but
for them, we don't want to upset the apple cut.
It wasn't an investigation. It was a hunt. Don't play
(01:05:04):
the same game. You didn't do anything. There was never
any evidence. This was not an investigation. It was a hunt.
You were being hunted. They were trying to plant and
create evidence that would be believed, and they failed. We
caught them, We caught them, called, and we have people
that don't know how to do anything about it. It's horrible.
If that's the case, I have to check that. I
(01:05:25):
find it hard to believe because you know what, I
went through two elections. You don't think that affected eighteen.
I wasn't running in eighteen, but the whole Russia, which
hunt affected the eighteen outcome of the election. You know,
we lost some congressionals. People don't say we picked up
two Senate seats, but we lost something in eighteen. You know,
(01:05:46):
we lost something. We lost some seats that we probably
could have held onto. We went through the same thing,
and it was all phony stuff. Nobody said, let's hold
it back until after the election. But the Republicans don't
play the same game. They don't play the same game.
I'd be very I'd be surprised, and I'd be very disappointed.
I'll probably be disappointed because this stuff should have come
(01:06:08):
out a year ago. Anyway. Did you expect it to
did you everything they needed a year ago? Did you
expect it to come out by now? I thought it
should have come out two years ago, I mean, frankly,
as far as I was concerned. Look, it's it's if
they hold it because of the election. I've gone through
two elections. Now, Well, that's what he says, they're holding it.
(01:06:29):
Started investigating me before I even won the election, it says,
investigating me. When I was coming down the escalator, the
beautiful golden escalators ago with the first lady. I was
under investigation illegally by these thieves and Kobe and Cooks.
We caught him in the act. They were spying in
my campaign, and then they went for a coup. Nobody said, well, gee,
(01:06:54):
you know, let's hold off the investigation. But with them,
they do. The Republicans don't play it the same way.
It's very disappointing. Oh, it was frustrating for the first
six months of your first term. Half the Republicans in
the House thought it was true, and that's why they
didn't help you move your agenda. But it says right here,
this is Axios, by the way, is the news source,
(01:07:14):
and they say that Barr is communicating that his investigator, Durham,
is taking his investigation very seriously and is focused on
winning prosecutions, which I guess we're going to expect, not
scoring points in the meeting. Let everybody get elected to
office and then let's worry about it. First of all,
if we don't win this election, that whole thing is
going to end, okay, and you just remember that as well.
(01:07:38):
Election that's another thing I'm fighting for because these people
have to be brought to justice, but they should have
been brought to justice before the election. But if we
don't win this election. If we don't win, that whole
thing is going to be dismissed. That's another thing. People
want to know what they can do, sir. You would
not believe the numbers of people who are asking what
(01:07:59):
can they do besides vote? What? And voting is big?
I mean, I tell people and ask me this, that's
the first thing. To make sure you vote. Show up
and vote on election day. But vote. It's not it's
not insignificant. What else can people do? Because they want
to help you, they want to keep up the genius,
because they're genius. They get it better than these guys
(01:08:20):
that are looking at stuff. I'm telling you, they get
it better. The American public gets this better than the
so called people that are looking. You know, when I
look at the Times and I look at the Washington Post,
fake papers, both of them, and they get pulletzerprises for
the Russia investigation. But they were all wrong. There was
no collision, so they get bulletzerprises. Wasn't a true word
(01:08:41):
in any of those stories, no, none of it. And
the guys that did get it right, they don't get
bullet surprises, you know, And you and I can name
ten of them, Okay, you're one of them, but you
don't care about bullet zurprises. But the ones that got it,
they don't get anything but just rush. Take a look
at how wrong these people were, and they pretend they
(01:09:02):
know me. You know, Maggie haberm and all of these
people they remember, I have nothing against them, but they
don't know me. They don't know me. I haven't seen her,
I haven't spoken to her in a year and a half.
You know, you take one picture with somebody, it ends
up being like the best friends for the rest of
your life. You know, take a picture at the Oval
office with a photographer with a reporter up, and then
they write though as though there you're like like, like
(01:09:26):
you can't live without them. I don't. I don't even
speak to these people. But look at the bad reporting
that they've done. Look how wrong they were about everything.
They got Pulitzer prizes for the Pulitzer Organization frankly as
a disgrace. They gave Pulletzer prizes to everybody that shouldn't
have gotten them. Yep, you know they were all wrong, folks.
(01:09:47):
Let me just say, people that should get the Pulitzer
prizes didn't get them. I want to back the president
up on his folks. I'm in this story that we're
talking about here, the Russian collusion meddling story. Do not
doubt me. There wasn't a word of truth in any
of the stories that were published, oftentimes four times a
day for the first year. There was no truth. When
(01:10:07):
Robert Muller was handled the file on the day he
became the Special counsel, it was empty. There was never
any evidence. This was not an investigation, there was nothing
to investigate. It was a hunt. It was It was
an outrage. And to be awarded a Pulitzer Prize for
printing not a single thing that is true is genuinely
(01:10:30):
discrediting the Pulitzer. And you would think these people would
care about that, but they don't. So all it matters
is getting rid of you. That's all that matters. I
think they'd want to take back the prizes on the
basis that they made a mistake. I mean, you would
think the committee would meet and Sam, sorry, but you
got it wrong. We're gonna have to, you know, remand
we're gonna have to take back the prizes. But but
rush think of it. They was totally wrong, and they
(01:10:52):
got They all got Pulletzer prizes and then they go
into another story. It's the same stuff. It's it's it's
so disgraceful when you look at what's gone on. It's
so dishonest. And they knew it. And Muller was a fraud.
The whole thing was a fraud, and they were just thugs. Thugs.
And I'll tell you something. A friend of mine said,
you must be a friend of mine who is a
(01:11:13):
very smart, very successful guy lawyer, said, you must be
the most honest guy in the world. You've gone through
three and a half years of investigations, they found nothing,
and they've gotten through my taxes, They've gone through everything. Hey,
they spent forty eight million dollars. I think the last
number I heard was forty eight million investigating me. They've
gone through my taxes, They've gotten through everything. You can
(01:11:34):
imagine at a level that nobody can even believe. Nobody's
ever had to put up and no other president should
have to put up with us. But then I hear
that they're not going to do the thing before the election.
Why because they're afraid they're going to influence the election.
Because that's the way the Republicans are. They play so
nice all the time. Yeah, you're very disappointing. If Bill
(01:11:55):
Barr actually made that statement, I would be very disappointed
in him. I don't know that he made that statement,
but if he did do that, that's a good point.
I mean, it is the drive by media, it's Axios,
and the story is that Barr is telling leading Republicans.
It's not that he's made it public, it's that he's um. Well,
they've had plenty of time to do it. They've been
looking at it for two years. The facts are on
(01:12:16):
the table. All you have to do is take a
look at the Horrowartz reporter on Muller that even the
New York Times or Mueller and especially what they wrote
about what they wrote about this, this idiot coomy the
world's worst FBI director. But why do you think they're
very dishonest? Guy? Do you think the American people? Do
you think American people are not aware of this? Do
(01:12:36):
you think they don't know the totally aware? No, they're
totally were. Even the other side's aware of it. The
other side laughs about it. They can't believe they got
away with it. Do you want another truth? You know
they're not They're not stupid, They're very smart. The other
side laughs about it. It's not like they believe the
Russia thing. They don't blame, but if they think about it,
if they think they got away with it, then they think, well,
(01:12:57):
I'm leading up to the American people should be if
they know what happened so outraged, No way they would
vote Democrat. This is outrageous. This is antithetical to everything
this country stands for. What happened to you and I
to do a takedown of a very legitimately effect beyond
(01:13:18):
because I was fighting. Little did I know, because I
didn't know when they started this investigation, which was long
before the presidential before the race, after I won. They
tried to take me out before I won. They tried
to you know as a fraud. It was the Russia.
It was the Russian which Hunter, They were trying to
corrupt your transition. Russia. You know this better than anybody
(01:13:41):
and putin I guarantee you says this to everybody. Nobody
has been tougher on Russia than I have. I got
NATO to pay four hundred and ten billion dollars more
to protect against Russia. I was the one that exposed
Nordstream the pipeline going into Germany. I said, wait a minute,
you're paying Russia billions of dollars and we're supposed to
(01:14:01):
protect you from Russia. What kind of a deal is this.
I was the one that gave tank busters to Ukraine,
and Obama gave them pillows, remember the pillows probably from
the pillow man on Fox, but pillows and sheets, right,
And I gave them tank busters. I gave them money. Obama,
what nobody has been tougher on Russia than I have? Nobody? Well,
(01:14:24):
you know, mister President, I think something the American people
need to know is that the Democrats and the media,
which is again one and the same, have done more
with four years of lies and misrepresent to utter outright
lies about you were supposedly stealing the election from Hillary.
(01:14:45):
With the Russia, they have done more, sir, This is important.
They have done more to corrupt the integrity and the
honor of the presidential election system than Vladimir Putin could
have ever hoped to. They have made people doubt and
they're now taught talking about how this upcoming election the
Russians are in the process of stealing it too. These
people are so dishonorable and disreputable, and they need to
(01:15:09):
be made to be held accountable what they have done
to the perception of honesty and integrity in our elections,
to the very serious effort they are making to transform
this country into something it was never founded to be.
But this business of trying to say that you stole
the election, that you meddled with the Russian they did.
(01:15:32):
Hillary did. Hillary came up with this whole scheme in
order to protect her from her email scandal. This is
something they did. And now they're run around and they're
doing more damage to the integrity, the perceived honesty of
our electoral system than anything Ladim Reputan could remember. Home.
She deleted thirty three thousand emails. She should be in
(01:15:53):
jail for that. I don't even care if they are
if they're very highly confidential emails, I don't care what
she deleted. She got a question, she got a statement
from Congress to subpoena from Congress. Everybody, we want your emails,
all of Hillary Clincingma, thirty three thousand of them. She
deleted them, She asked wash them, and she broke her
(01:16:15):
telephones with a hammer. Okay, broke them with a hammer.
And by the way. Speaking of that and speaking of
Bill Barr, thirty one people deleted their telephone messages from
the Muller Report. Okay, and they said they all made
a mistake. Well, they made the same mistake. The chances
are a billion to one that they would have made
the same mistake. Thirty one phones were wiped clean on
(01:16:37):
the Muller Report. I want to see those phones, right,
And how do you allow thirty one phones? I think
it was nineteen people, thirty one phones. You read about
it just recently. They want the phones because they want
the information of the phones because we caught them cheating
and they were all wiped clean, or most of them
(01:16:57):
were wiped clean. We have a couple, believe it or not,
but they were wiped clean. They were deleted. Everything was
deleted and cleansed, and you're not allowed to do that.
They broke the law. Nothing happens to these people. But
they go after General Flynn, they go after Papadopoulos, they
go after all these people. It is a disgrace. And
(01:17:18):
one of the reasons I want to win so badly
is we got to finish this thing off. And I
will be very disappointed if that Axios piece that you
read to me is true. I'll be very disappointed because
they've had plenty of time to get this done. Plenty
of time, absolutely, sir. Why do you think Vice President
Biden agreed to go on with the town hall debate
(01:17:41):
number two if you can prove your virus free in
October fifteenth and then he retracted the demand now agrees
with a commission to zoom the debate wants a virtual
debate and if he doesn't show up, are you going
to show up anyway? But what are they trying to
pull off? I don't think the debates have been that
much because and I'll tell you why I've done well
with debates. I want. I guess I had fifteen. I
think I won every single pole. I won the pole
(01:18:03):
on this one with him, but I had to be
rude because he was lying. He'd get up and he'd
just say a series of things. They were all eyes,
so I'd say false and they'd say I interrupted him.
But you know, if you look at the polls, most
pole say I wanted with him, but it was a
very interesting thing. I'd rather let him speak because he's gone,
He's mentally gone, and eventually he goes off track. And
(01:18:23):
he'll start talking about the birds and the bees. But
I couldn't do that because he was saying so many
false things. He'd say about the soldiers. He'd say about
social security, which I'll protect and he won't protect. By
the way, he's not going to protect to him, he
doesn't even know what it is he'll say about social Security.
He'll say, but and if I didn't say wrong, you know,
(01:18:45):
et etc. But the one who protected him was Chris Wallace.
And by the way, Fox is a whole different ball game.
You know, Fox is a much different thing than it
was four years ago. Somebody said, what's the biggest difference.
I said, the biggest difference is Fox. You'd take a
look at Fox. Of course, we have our great one
Sean and this, but and you know the number of
but you watch this. Fox is a whole different ball game.
(01:19:08):
And you know Paul Ryan is on the border Fox,
so I'm sure that has something to do with it.
But Fox is a whole different ball game. Somebody said
to me, what's the biggest difference. I said, the biggest
difference is Fox is no longer the same. Well, big
difference the obstacles that keep being placed in front of
you are no doubt there, and it's I've never seen
(01:19:29):
I've told you this before, I talk about it on
this program. I've never seen anything like this before. The
things that you have to overcome and surmount each and
every day would drive most people out of the business.
They drive most I don't think I can talk to you,
and I don't know. I'm actually you didn't need any
of this is bigger. But why I can talk to you, Rush,
(01:19:53):
the great Rush, and you are the great one, and
I'm honored to know you. But I can talk to you,
and I can spell out all of the dishonesty and
everything else. And the millions of people are listening right now.
I hope your all time biggest audience, millions and millions
and million. You would not believe how many minute now.
But I can talk to you. Now. Let's say I
say no, I don't want to do it, or I
(01:20:14):
want to be shy, I don't want to talk with that.
You know too many people. Let's you know, let's not talk. No,
you have such an incredible audience, so I can tell
them about Fox being a big obstacle. It's a problem.
Fox is a problem. When Roger Ailes ran Fox. I mean,
Roger had a very strong point of view that's totally gone.
And I think it's influenced by Paul Ryan. He's on
(01:20:36):
the board. I can't believe it. Here's a guy who
failed a speaker. Do you know that Nancy Pelosi issues
a subpoena like its cookies? Right? Everything everything you do?
Did you make a phone call twelve years ago? I
wish you a subpoena. You couldn't get a subpoena at
a poll when when we have no guys, I mean
we have Jim Jordan and these guys. They're so fantastic,
(01:20:58):
they're doing great jobs. There's no quick but but how
do you do that? You have no choice. You have
to deal what I say. So, Fox is different than
they were four years ago, but you still have to
you have to deal with it. Deal with them. I
deal with them. But they're they're really they've gone a
very different path. It's a much different it's a much
different group. They have guys on there that are so bad.
They have people like all them the twins as Chris
(01:21:19):
Hahn and and well that's they just hired a bunch
of Democrats. He worked for Schumer they're Schumer people. How
about when they hired Donna Brazil, who gave Hillary the
questions to the debate. Yeah, I hear you. Who got
fired By the way, Donna Brazil got fired from CNN,
and then Fox hires or got no credibility. It's not
(01:21:41):
like she's great entertainment. It's not even good enterity. Know this,
This unfairness never ends. It never ends. It's our way
of life. It's something we have to deal with. And
it's uh, it's it's it's madness when they when they
do that, when they put somebody like a Donna Brazil
or not that she's effective, she's not effective, I know.
But you are. You are. That's that's a difference. That's
(01:22:02):
the difference. You are. You are the way you think,
they're driving you crazy. You have no idea what you're
doing them, you're driving them insane. Sir, think the Fox
should grab it and they should say, hey, we we
got the president and wireging defender. But they they're not.
They're going the way of CNN and they're going away
of MSDNC. And it's a shame. I mean, it's a
(01:22:25):
shame when I see it. I watch it, I watch
I look at the people they hire. I mean, I
could tell you some of the anchors. They're so bad.
They're so bad. And at the same time, Fox and
Friends is terrific in the morning. You know they're good. Well,
you are a TV expert. I mean, there's no question.
Well I have to be. I have aientists. You couldn't
survive it. Sean is great, and Tucker is pretty good.
(01:22:48):
You know, Tucker has his moments, in all fairness, but
Tucker's pretty good. And Laura has been great, and you know,
we have some lot of a lot of good stuff.
But but Foxes is fifty percent of what they were
less and I would say less than fifty, but fifty
percent of what they were, that's still better than nothing.
At some point, maybe they'll go all the way and
that will be fine too. I'll figure that out I
(01:23:09):
have either way. Speaking of your effectiveness, I don't know
if you've seen this, but the NBA has decided, NBA Commissioner,
they're gonna pull you know, their Black Lives Matter messaging
next year. No longer going to be on the uniforms,
no longer going to be on the basketball court. They're
no longer going to and I wonder why that is,
(01:23:31):
mister president, because their ratings have died. Oh no, I
haven't watched the basketball game. And I helped them get open.
I haven't watched the basketball game. Tried to help them.
You tried to help the NFL. I tried to help
the NFL. And then Roger nice guy Goodell in his
basement wearing a very tight blue T shirt, you know,
and he's not meant for it, nor am I nor you.
(01:23:55):
It's just one of those things. You know, at a
certain age you put on a tie, right. But what
happens is he brought it up again. I thought, I thought,
I said to him, I thought, I taught you a
lesson two years ago about standing for the flag. Their
ratings went down to tubes, and now you look at
everybody with their hands in their air, in the air
and they're kneeling, and I just don't have the same
(01:24:15):
interest and need to do a lot of other people, right,
the NBA has become so political that nobody cares about
it anymore. People. I don't know if anybody that's I
don't even know who's playing in the finals. I don't
know anybody that's watching the NBA. Lebron has been a spokesman.
(01:24:36):
I don't know him, I never met him. All I
know is when he endorsed Hillary, I said, that's the
greatest endorsement I've ever seen. Because when he endorsed Hillary
four years ago, she came up to his knee. I said,
that is not the best looking president. I thought that
was the greatest. There was standing up to his knee.
They were standing now, she was up to about his knee.
(01:24:57):
I mean, literally, I've never seen anything. And I said,
that's not good. But Lebron is a spokesman for the
for the Democratic Party. It's a very very nasty spokesman
because again, they are angry so much for the black community,
and people don't want to see that. And he's a
great basketball player, but people don't want to see a
(01:25:18):
guy that's that way. They don't want to see that.
They you know, we have enough difficulty during the week.
You don't want to sit down watch a basketball game
and then watch somebody that hates your guts, okay, and
he's a hater. So I look at it, and I
look at the NBA and I can't watch it, and
nobody's watching it, and their ratings are down the tubes.
And I'm telling you, I haven't watched a basketball game
(01:25:41):
like in a long time interest in doing it. And
you know what, that's a very sad commentary because I'd
love to, but I just don't have any interest in
it anymore. And other things, other things I do, I
have great interest, but I don't have They're hurting themselves
very badly. And now I understand, don't forget black lives matter?
What was black lives matter? Pigs in a blanket fryam
(01:26:03):
like bacon. The first time I ever heard of black
lives matter, I said, that's such a terrible term because
it's such a racist term. It's a term that sows
division between blacks and whites and everybody else. And it's
a very bad term four blacks. But there they were
very angry. It's a Marxist organization, that's the key. It's
(01:26:23):
pigs in a blanket, Pigs in a blanket fryam like bacon.
Who are they referring to? New York City policeman? Okay?
And I said, wow, And if you would have told
me that was going to go mainstream, but it never
did go mainstream. No, I don't know you, mister President's
another thing, if you go back nine to eleven, just
nineteen years ago, not that long ago, and this is
(01:26:46):
this is this to me is a really sobering thing
to realize, not that long ago the police, fireman, first responders,
were they heroes in our country. Go back after nine eleven,
the athletes carrying the American flag on the fields. And
now look what's happening in fifteen to nineteen years. Look
(01:27:06):
what the left has done. Now we want to defund
the police. Now the police are murdering pigs and so
forth in fifteen years. It's it's a sign of how
successful these people have been. They used to be heroes.
Everybody wanted to be with the police. Everybody wanted to
join them on when George w. Bush, you're out the
first pitch Yankee Stadium, Rudy is wearing the NYPD cap.
(01:27:31):
I mean, the cops were the toasts of town. They
went into the buildings trying to save people. And it's
it's to see what the Democrat Party has done to
the police and their reputation. The liberal Democrats, radical liberal Democrats.
Look New York. Rudy was a great mayor. Rudy was
our greatest mayor by far. He did things that were
(01:27:52):
incredible and brought back to New York. But it was
easier in a way because the police had total respect.
That was criming of it. But the police were the
police when they dumped water a year ago on the
policeman's head and he didn't do anything about it, like
turnaround and slug the guy when they did that. I
don't know if you remember New York's Finest, New York's Finest.
(01:28:14):
He's a great police. You know. I got indorsed by
New York's Finest one month ago, and it's the first
time in the history of New York City that they've
endorsed the president. A lot of police organizations have endorsed you, now,
everybody all over. I don't think anybody, in fact, I
asked Biden at the debate, and of course Chris Wallace
cut it off, didn't think it was appropriate. I said,
name one police organization that endorsed you, Joe. Then I said, stay,
(01:28:37):
law and order, Joe, just law and order. He wouldn't
do it. Why wouldn't he do that? I mean, what's
so hard? How hard is that he wouldn't do it?
Then I think he said law and order in safety?
You know I said no, no, just law and order.
Law and order means safety. You don't have to add
the word safety. You know, that's a little net. Let
me tell you, if he got in, this country is
going to hell. This country is going to go to
(01:28:58):
hell well like you never seen, and you'll end up
in a depression the likes of which you haven't seen
since nineteen twenty nine. People are asking when you say that,
why would they want this? Why would the Democrats want
to take this country into a recession and have it
be so bad economically? Why would they want to do that?
The taxes are going up, your regulations. You know, I
(01:29:18):
did in the biggest tax cuts in history, bigger than
Reagan's tax cuts. I did something that was more important.
I cut regulations that you couldn't build a highway in
less than ten years. I mean you'd have it would
take you ten years to get approvals, and some much
longer than that. Someone was twenty one years and they
ended up not getting it. You couldn't get anything done.
And I cut regulations to a level that now you
(01:29:41):
can get things done or not done in one year.
In other words, it may get disapprove because it's not safe.
Or environmentally good or you know a lot of good reasons.
But I cut regulations from nineteen years to one year.
I mean, you wouldn't even believe it. People had to
go through the same agency fourteen different times. Once again,
you have to be the one to tell the story.
(01:30:03):
I have to be the one. Yeah, nobody else seems
to be able to tell it properly. By the way,
what's the status of the stimulus package now, the COVID
stimulus package. Oh, I'd like to see it happen, because
it wasn't. Look a lot of people are being hurt
because of China. It wasn't these people's fault. I would
like to see a bigger stimulus package, frankly than either
the Democrats or the Republicans are offering. I'm going to
(01:30:26):
the exact opposite, now, okay, I mean I'm telling you this.
I'm telling you something I don't tell anybody else because
maybe it helps or maybe it hurts negotiations. I would
like to see a bigger package. I'd like to see
money going to people. It was not their fault that
China sent in the plague. It wasn't their fault. And
China is going to pay a big price. You know,
(01:30:46):
China was going to catch us in twenty nineteen. If
you look back fifteen twenty years ago, everybody said, by
twenty nineteen, China will beat us. I was beating them
so badly. You know, we were doubling up, We were
doing rate until the play came in. And we're still
beating them badly. We'll still be if you have a
smart guy at top, you'll always beat them. You know,
(01:31:07):
they're paying US billions and billions of dollars in tariffs.
People don't realize when I made the deal, they're paying
billions of dollars I gave. Oh, they don't, And people
don't know what that means. They don't know, they don't.
How does that benefit them that China is paying billions
and billions billions of dollars. Well, they devalue their currency
and they make it impossible to compete because they devalue
their currency. You know, their currency manipulators, and they devalue
(01:31:27):
their currency and therefore the dollar they're using dollars of
a different value, and it makes it very easy for
them to compete. Whereas we don't do that. We don't
play games like that. Some people say we should I
don't have a viewpoint, but they devalue their currency and
they do all sorts of things. And what they do
in the World Trade Organization, you know, we just want
a case seven and a half billion dollars. First time
(01:31:49):
we've won a case. It a long time. I said, look,
I'm going to get out of the World Trade Organization
if I have to, just like I got out of
the World Health. So we were paying five hundred million
a year in World Health. China's paying thirty nine millionaire
in World Health. They say, why are they paying They're
a bigger country, Why are they paying so much less?
I asked these, you know, little stupid questions like that.
Nobody could give me an answer. And yet they dominate
(01:32:11):
the World Health. Okay, they dominate World Health and World Health.
When they did this horrible thing to us, World Health
did nothing whatsoever to help us. We're at five hundred millionaire.
So I terminated the deal. Oh, they're in the tank.
They're in the tank for the show. In the tank, say,
I got to make an observation about world trade. By
the way, same thing about world trade. Do you know
(01:32:31):
in world trade, China is considered a developing nation if
you're developing nation, you get tremendous advantages in trade, or
you get your hand in the back pocket of the
United States Treasury is what you get one hundred percent.
And I ended that, I said, I'm not going to
accept that they're developing nation. I wouldn't say China is
(01:32:53):
in love with me. By the way, China is dying.
His role will happen just a couple of predictions. If
I and we'll have a great deal with Iran within
one month, they're dying to have me lose. But if
I win a great deal on what no nuclear weapons?
No nuclear weapons, don't forget look at look at what's
happened to terrorism. Iran was a very wealthy nation, given
(01:33:15):
one hundred and fifty billion dollars plus one point eight
billion in cash by Obama, a very wealthy nation. And
now they're a very poor nation. And the terrorist organizations
I knock on what as I say it, because it's
easier to start something. But they don't. They're not fighting
like they used to. You know why they have no
money because Iran Iran as bust, Iran as bust because
(01:33:37):
of me, because the sanctions and other things, and the
whole picture of terror. You don't see the terror now,
you know, I hate to say it on an important
show like this, but I'll say it. You don't see
the terror the way you used to see the terror.
And they know if they do anything against us, they'll
pay a thousand fold a problem. They're going to have
a thousandfold difference because they know we are going to
(01:34:00):
do things to you that have never been done before.
And they understand it. But here's the thing. They're no
longer rich, and they're not giving out hundreds of millions
of dollars to Hamas and all these other groups that
caused all the problem. Now nobody brings it out. When
was the last time you saw today? I hear the
(01:34:20):
frustration anymore. I need to make I need to make
an observation here for the American people. We've we've now
been chatting with the president for an hour and excuse me,
an hour and forty two minutes, ladies and Joe. We
have not had a commercial break. I would thus have
to say the president's status with COVID nineteen is pretty solid.
(01:34:44):
The second thing that I would say is that not
once during the hour and forty two minutes has the
President been stumped. Has he not known what he wanted
to say? Sir, you give the media in this country
more access than any president ever. That's not even a
contest you. I think you've done something brilliant too. When
(01:35:04):
you have your little press gaggles out on your way
to Marine One, the cameras on you, not them. You
look like you're actually conducting an orchestra as you point
to various members of the media when it's their turn.
You're conducting a symphony. And everybody hears them screaming their
questions at you like a bunch of six year olds,
(01:35:26):
and you answer them. Every question you're asked. You answer.
You don't take up a pass on anything, and you
don't run away from anything, you don't hide from anything.
And you'll meet them wherever they happen to be, if
you're able to, you will. And I think people need
to keep this in mind in terms of a chief
(01:35:48):
executive who is accessible to the American people and wants
the American people to know what he's doing and what
he's thinking. There's no deception here. You have somebody, I
don't want to embarrass you here, but you have somebody
who thinks this country is great. You have somebody that
loves this country, perhaps in ways that many people in
(01:36:09):
politics in the past don't, because their view of what
America is is a nation among many in the world.
President Trump believes in America first, and for this, he's
hated for this, He's criticized America first. There's nothing wrong
with America first, because America is the good guys. We
are the good guys in the world. We are the
solution to the world's problems. You have a man here
(01:36:30):
who believes this, who believes your country holds the secret
and holds the answer to life improving for citizens and
human beings all over this planet. That's the objective that
he has, including for people that live in this country.
And can you imagine folks being hated and reviled for this,
(01:36:52):
And yet he is. He's hated and reviled for loving America,
for believing that America is good. His opponent think America's racist, sexist, bigoted, homophobic. Hell,
we may as well still be a slave state as
far as they're concerned. It's outrageous how they've poisoned the
minds of our young people and got our young people
having their own country. Donald Trump has been a. Your
(01:37:18):
arrival on the scene has been providential. I believe, sir.
I think you are the one person who has the
ability to delay, stave off, stop the left from this
inexorable march of theirs into changing this country into things.
The American people that aren't paying attention have no idea
(01:37:40):
what's in store for them if they win. Well, Russia,
this is the I appreciate that very much. It's an honor.
I mean, bottom my heart, sir, I know you do.
And this is the most important election that we've ever had.
And I used to say sixteen I don't even get
into that anymore. That's over. This is the most important
election that this country has ever had on so many
(01:38:03):
different fronts, There's never been anything like it. We will
go the way of failed nations all over Latin America,
South America. We will go the way of failure like
nobody's ever seen, in a scale like nobody's ever seen it.
We've been taken advantage of by every nation in the world,
including our friends. Our friends sometimes are worse than our enemies.
(01:38:25):
We are we are. You know what I've done with NATO.
We were taking we were taking care of virtually one
hundred percent of the military needs of Europe, guarding them
from Russia. At the same time, they were taken advantage
of US on trade, and in many ways they were
worse than China. Europe was worse to US on trade
(01:38:49):
than China was. I mean, and I changed so many things.
But you know, then they say, oh, in Germany they
don't like Trump as much as they like Obama. Well,
of course they shouldn't like me, because Germany was taking
advantage of us, like a few countries took advantage. Ye,
what was Angela Merkel doing making a deal with Russia
on that natural gas pipeline? You made that point at NATO.
(01:39:09):
She should have been buying it from US. Nobody even
knew about that pipeline until I brought it up. I said,
why are you paying Russia billions of dollars and we're
protecting you? Tell me what kind of a deal is this.
We're protecting you, but you're giving Russia every month billions.
What did she say? She smiles, because she's a very
smart one. She knows it. There's no way she can
answer the question. I say, you don't have to answer
(01:39:30):
the question, Angola. I like angle, I get along with
them believe it or not quite well. But you know
she's a player. And I said, Ala, don't answer the
question because I don't want to embarrass you. This is
the way she could answer the question because she gets
away with it. That's why she's a very smart, cunning person.
And but I caught him. Hey, rush I got them
to pay one hundred and thirty billion dollars going to
(01:39:52):
four hundred and ten billion dollars more each year against Russia.
Now I get along with Putin. I like Putin. Putin
probably you possibly likes me, but I guarantee you one thing.
He would have much rather seen crooked Hillary, and I
guarantee you'd rather see Biden because Biden is slow. Biden
is not equipped to be president. He never was. It
his best day, but he is not equipped now it's
(01:40:14):
no longer prime time. And not because he's seventy eight,
because frankly, at seventy eight, as we said before, I
know the sharpest people, they're eighty five, they're eighty. It's
not at age. You know. Now they're all saying, oh,
it's seventy eight. It's not because he's seventy eight. There's
something wrong with him, Okay, And we can't. We can
be nice about it. We know that. That's why, that's
(01:40:35):
why they're angling. They get nobody wants to say it,
but he can't get. His thoughts are bad. Here's a
guy you talk about access to the press. I've never
seen this before, and I've watched a lot, and I
don't know how it gets away. You saw that NBC
joke the other night where it's like a child, like
you're asking a child questions. They don't talk to me
(01:40:57):
that way. When you look at when you look at
the questions that he gets, and then he reads the
answers off a computer. Now that means that these supposedly legitimate,
but they're not legitimate. You know that better than I do.
These news organizations are giving him questions, they're putting him
in a computer. He's reading the answers off a computer.
(01:41:17):
I've never heard of that before. Doves haven't done that.
Can you imagine give me the questions and I'm going
to give you an answer off a computer. He's reading
the answers off a computer a lot of times. And
if he doesn't do that, he's all mixed up and befuddled.
And Chris Wallace saved him three times the other night.
I mean, he was getting ready to crack. And Chris Wallace,
(01:41:37):
who was terrible by the way, who I think really
embarrassed himself and Fox the other night. But Chris Wallace
saved him. But can you imagine you're getting the answers
to questions, and you're getting the questions themselves, and you're
reading the They we're doing that for Hillary too. That's
how they rigged the game for the Democrats. Look, I
got under Biden SoundBite here for you. One thing. I'll say,
(01:41:58):
Hillary was much smarter. Hillary is a much smarter person,
you know. I mean, look, Hillary was smart. I don't
agree with that, but I mean, well, yeah, I answertand
but but Hillary was you know, Hillary didn't need to
have answers Rich you know, she could answer a question.
Joe cannot answer a question Joe they can answer. They
ask him a question, a very simple question, and he's
(01:42:18):
reading it off a computer. He's saying, move the computer,
you know, move it, bring it closer, bring it so
he couldn't see it, bring it answer or a question
that that anybody could answer. I mean, that's a very
simple question. We can't have this. We could be nice
and maybe I'll lose because they'll say I'm not a
nice person. I think I am a nice person. I
help people. I like to help people. But we can't
(01:42:39):
have this as our president. We really can't rush. Here's
another Biden sound by few to react to this. June seven. Now,
this is all the way back. Two thousand and six
is a fourteen years ago. Now this tell you who
the guy is. This is before any of whatever the
aging problems that have befallen Vice President Biden. This is
this is two thousand and six, fourteen years ago, Manchester,
(01:43:02):
New Hampshire, in Delaware. The largest growth in population is
Indian Americans. Movie from India. You cannot go to a
seven eleven or Duncan Donuts unless you have a slight
Indian accent. And I'm not talking now. You and I
say that, and we are roasted and excoriated. He says that,
(01:43:22):
oh that's just old Joe. Joe. We wouldn't be But
still that's a much different man talking there than you see. Now,
that's different exactly right, Ballots, we got we got a
dwindling time here. Virginia Beach, Virginia police just confirmed that
undelivered mail was found. This is the story is it
(01:43:43):
might be the yesterday or today before. Undelivered mail was
found this afternoon in a construction dumpster in the Pungo
section of Virginia Beach. The man who found it estimates
seventy to eighty pounds of mail USPS. The Post Services investigating.
And then we have another companion story, mail in ballots
(01:44:06):
in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. I have been delayed, voters are
confused and frustrated. Fifty eight thousand mail in ballots one county, sir,
in one state. Extrapolate that through the entire state, fifty
eight thousand mail in ballots, or as the Democrats see it,
mail in fraud. That's another thing that people wanted. What
(01:44:29):
can be done about this? Well, look absentee ballots where
you send in via ballot. You know, I have an
absentee ballot in Florida. You send in and you have
to request it and they have to show Ida to
get one of those. You don't for a mail in
or so it's not easy, but it's okay, you know,
and some people just can't do it, but they send it.
(01:44:50):
It's called absentee. I call it. I call it a
solicited ballot. I like that term. Better you solicit and
they send it and you'd fix it and you'd send
it back in. Okay, that's one thing. But they're sending
out millions and millions of ballots. Are they sending them
to all Democrats? Who are they sending them to? Where
are they going in, etc. Etc. This is going to
be the second biggest political scandal in history. The first
(01:45:11):
biggest is the Russian crap that we've been going through
for three and a half years. That's the biggest to me,
that's the biggest scandal. The biggest political scandal in history
is we've been going through and now they delay it.
You tell me they delay it. That's going to be
my first phone call. By the way lay of the
announcement of whatever. I think, it's just a disgrace. If
that's the case, it's a disgrace, And I'll say it
(01:45:32):
to anybody who wants to say it. That's a disgrace.
But the biggest scandal of all time is that this
will be the second biggest scandal. Every day I'm seeing
accounts of ballots that are thrown away. You saw the
military ballots that were thrown away. With my name on
it the other day. Every day you see scandal about
(01:45:53):
these millions of ballots that's being sent out. It's the
single biggest risk in this election. If this kind of
stuffer half thing to me, if I were a candidate,
I have my people on this sofa. What are you
doing about it? We have many lawyers and we've actually
been winning many cases. How about where they have the
ballots counted and the ballots have to be in by
(01:46:14):
November third, election day, but they don't have to be
counted for two weeks later. Well, that means you're never
going to know who won the election. You know it's
going to be two weeks later. You know, I want
to see you on November third who won the election?
So do you you want to turn on your television
like we have for the last fifty years and find
out who won the election? Right? You don't want to say,
oh gee, they have two weeks to count their ballots
and then what happens is all sorts of ballots start
(01:46:36):
showing up miraculously. We're watching it very closely and we're
winning a lot of cases. Rush you don't see it
too much. We just want a big case in North
Carolina we just want a big case in Pennsylvania. I
think we're going to win. We're winning a lot of cases.
Rhode Island. Want a big case where the ballots have
to be done in a certain way. But the best
(01:46:58):
way is to get up. Now. I tell you why.
Our people, your people, my people, Republican people. They get
out and they're all my people as far as everyone's
my people. But Republicans tend to get out and vote,
and that's what they should do. Early voting, but at
a machine early voting or voting on November third. And
why do you see the kind of love that's going
(01:47:20):
to be expressed the day those polls open, the day
those machines open. Way do you see? But the Democrats
are sending in eighty percent of theirs by ballot. Now,
one thing we've noticed, from what I hear and from
what I'm reading, is a lot of the ballots all
they're doing is taking from people that would have voted
in the first place, and not a lot of new voters.
(01:47:41):
You know, we have many more registered voters than we've
We've picked up a lot of voters. The Republicans. I
think you're going to see a very, very big explosion
when those polls open up. Rush, but a large percentage,
like eighty percent of the Republicans want to vote. They
want to actually go to a poll and vote, as
it's almost the opposite for whatever reason with the Democrats.
(01:48:04):
I think you're going to see a very big explosion
of voting now. The Democrats need a little yellow bus
showing up, picking them up, taking them to the poles,
getting there on their own right right. And then they
do the harvesting thing, which is terrible, which is illegal
in many places, even with the laws that are being passed,
where they go around and they start picking up everybody's votes.
You know, we have a big enthusiasm gap. Our gap
(01:48:26):
is so much more enthusiastic, you know, like thirty thirty
five points. That's there's never been a gap of enthusiasm
between let's say me and him that there is. Look
at the boat shows, I mean thousands of boats in
the ocean and in the lakes. And oh that's another thing.
That Gallup poll that shows fifty six percent of the
American people think they're better off now and they were
(01:48:48):
four years ago, even in the midst of pandemic. Test
there's another part of that poll. When they ask people
after the you know, who do you think it's gonna win?
And how do you think when they ask people who
do you think is actually going to be elected president?
You you are the by a lot, by a lot,
by an absolute lot. And that's never been wrong, by
(01:49:09):
the way, sir, that that question has never been wrong.
They say, who is your neighbor going to vote for? Yeah,
exactly who do you think your neighbors exactly know their neighbors. No,
because people don't want to get involved. I mean, you know,
they even the signs. We have signs all over the place.
We have signs and states, but they steal the signs.
People steal the signs and they're stealing. You know, it's
a well known thing. They're stealing in the signs. Our
(01:49:32):
enthusiasm is far greater than it was four years ago,
far greater because they love the job we're doing and
they know this pandemic was a horrible thing that happened
to us. It should have never been allowed to happen
by China. China is going to pay a big price,
and it's one of those things, but it happened, and
we've done a great job, orner, we've got no credit.
(01:49:53):
I'll tell you what if this turns out to be right,
that this medicine is going to make people better, it's
a game changer like nobody's ever seen before, and it's
going to happen. It's going to happen. Rush, mister President,
thank you. You have two hours here, and I know
you've got a jam packed day left on your schedule.
That's true, that not, but it's an honor, an honor
(01:50:14):
to be with you for two hours. You have no idea,
it's a great honor. Well, it's great to have you here.
And I know you got you got you got brother
Levin tonight doing his show tonight and that's going to
be kick ass. So we appreciate it. Sir. We love you,
and I meant everything I said today. You are the
person standing in the way. You are the one that
(01:50:35):
true American patriots have invested their hopes for their future
and their kid's future, and you are the person they
are depending on to stave off this attack on our
country that is coming from inside. It's coming from inside
our country as opposed to outside. Although that's that's happening
(01:50:55):
to it is largely and you know what I say,
oftentimes when people say that I have no choice, I
have to do it. I have no choice and that's
what I'm doing. And best of luck to you, sir.
Thank you so much,
