RUSH: So the word is that Donald Trump and Ted Cruz are going to be speaking at an anti-Iran deal rally on the Washington mall today, and I think they’re gonna be speaking English. I’m not sure about it, but my best inside information is that Trump and Cruz are gonna be speaking English at the anti-Iran nuke deal rally, which the left will probably see as a hate crime.

You know, I hope Trump doesn’t do what the Huckster did to Cruz. Did you see what happened to Cruz in Kentucky? Did you see this? Okay. Well, I’m not sure exactly what happened here. I know that Huckabee announced this big fanfare thing. He’s gonna go in there and he’s gonna get Kim Davis out of jail, and he even promised to serve her jail time if that’s what it took.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The word is Donald Trump and Ted Cruise are going
to be speaking in an anti Iran deal rally on
the Washington Wall today, and I think they're gonna be
speaking English. I'm not sure about it, but my my
best inside information is that Trump and Cruise are going

(00:21):
to be speaking English at the anti Iran nuke deal rally,
which the lempl of probably sees a hate crime. You know,
I hope, I hope Trump doesn't do what the Huckster
did to Cruise. Did you see what happened to Cruise
in Kentucky? Did you see about this? Okay? Well, it's

(00:42):
it's I'm not sure what exactly what happened here. I
know that Huckabee announced this big fanfair thing. He's gonna
go in there and he's gonna get Kim Davis out
of jail, and and he even promised to serve her
jail time if if that's what it took, and then
correct me if I'm wrong here. After all of that,
then Crew said he was going to join ya. He

(01:03):
was gonna Okay, So it was not a joint decision
by Huckabee and Cruise. It was Huckaby decided to go
in on his own and then cruise. You know what's
a good idea. I'll go there too. It's a good
solidarity moves. Okay, So that happened. But something strange also
happened when they secured the release of Kim Davis. Is
big press conference with her lawyer in her and there's
Huckabee and there's no cruise. They were as cruise cruise

(01:27):
there and they shut the cruises is off to the side.
One of Huckabees security people would not let cruise on
the stage. There's a lot of analogies that I can
offer you here, folks. I listen the Huckster, doesn't He
maybe thought of his h event was being hijacked, or

(01:49):
he didn't want to share the credit, or I mean,
after all, it is a presidential campaign. So I'm hoping
here that Trump let's cruise on the stage at the
anti Iran nuke deal rally. Actually I think this might
be cruises deal that are that that Trump is joining.
Doesn't matter. I'm just joking. They of course we'll both

(02:09):
be there. Did you see what else Trump did? Trump
sent a letter to Jeff Zucker at CNN. I have
I was holding it moments ago. My formerly nicotine stained
fingers a copy of the letter, and here's the upshot
of it. Trump starts out by saying to Jeff Zucker,

(02:29):
who's the CEO of CNN, I understand you've been selling
ads at five thousand dollars per minute. Now if that's true, then,
and by the way, that would that would jibe. I
mean they don't have any audience. They really five thousand
dollars a minute for a national cable news network. If

(02:51):
that's true, well, then no wonder they've got advertising. That's
a steel deal. Five thousand dollars a minute for a
so called national network. Anyway, Trump said, I have heard,
because of the upcoming Republican debate and me, that you
are now charging two hundred thousand dollars a minute for

(03:12):
commercial time. So Trump send Zucker a letter claiming he's
charging up from five thousand to two hundred grand, and
Trump claims credit for it. This is clearly because of me,
just like Fox News is debate ratings four million plus.
We're because of me. Trump said, I don't want the money,
but I think you should donate this money to veterans.

(03:33):
Grod why should you profit? This is my interpretation. These
words are not in the letter. Why should see an
end profit because of my popularity. You had nothing to
do with this. All your your camera's there, but it's
me that's gonna be generating the ratings. Why should you
get all the money. I don't need the money. I
don't want the money. But you want to send the
money to veterans. But now isn't gonna happen. But it's

(03:56):
an interesting technique. And Trump writes a letter, and then
he sends a letter out to everybody in the media
so that he doesn't rely on Zucker to release the
letter for everybody to see. This is a kind of
brazen nous and boldness. There's no other candidate that would
even think of trying something like this and dealing with

(04:22):
the media in this way. I mean, this is crossing
a boundary. And the media has their business and they
run their business, and everybody leaves that alone they respected.
Here's Trump crossing the line, injecting himself into CNN's business,
telling c and then he's the reason they're able to
charge so much money, and by rights, they ought to

(04:44):
donate that money because it really isn't due to anything
they're doing other than bringing their cameras to where Trump
is going to be. Can you see any of the
other Republican candidates making a big deal of it? You can't.
It's a kind of little thing that when Trump supporters
hear about it, it's an are one of these atta boys? Now?
Mrs Clinton? Man, oh Man, oh Man, Mrs Clinton is

(05:08):
on an apology tour now, and folks, look, all I
can tell you is I have scanned the drive by media.
It isn't working anywhere except the New York Times. In fact,
the Clinton campaign succeeded in getting some reporter or editor
they don't like transferred. David Brock actually sent a letter

(05:33):
of complaint to somebody at the New York Times, and
an editor that the Hillary camp thought was biased against
her was actually moved and transferred off of the Hillary story.
So the New York Times the only places right now
being sympathetic to Hillary. She was on television World News

(05:54):
tonight with David Muir, answering questions and saying she's sorry
about this email snaff Who let me sum it up
for you. I don't know if you've seen any of
the video, if you've seen the interview excerpts, love or
not that this is basically what happened. Hillary goes on

(06:16):
ABC's World News Tonight with David Muir to apologize for
that thing at the place. Well, could you be a
little bit more general in that, Hillary, I apologize for
the thing at the place. Could you be a little
more general? Look, I said, I apologize well for what
Well you'll see, but it's no big deal. Trust me.

(06:37):
What did you break any laws? No? Did you harm
national security? No? Did you illegally handle any classified information? No?
It was all allowed. Did you only delete personal emails?
And nothing about the Clinton Crime Foundation or anything related
to the State Department business? Right? So why are you apologizing?

(06:58):
There's the big question. If you didn't do anything wrong
with this, why the apology? What are you apologizing to
people for? If everything was allowed? I mean, some of
the reviews of Mrs Clinton's appearance in the drive by
media are scathing, referring to her as dear in the
headlight eyes. That is a profound influence. That's how the

(07:20):
drive byes described Dan Quayle in his debate with Lord Benson.
When Lord Benson, you know, Quail invoked JFK and then
it was over because Lord Vinson said, I knew JFK
JFK was a friend of mine, and you as senator

(07:41):
or no JFK. And the place erupted, and Quail stood
there staring straight ahead like he's about to be hit
by a car. Well, this is how Hillary appeared last night.
Let's go to the audio soundbites to get it started.
Very very authentically. Sorry, She's really sorry, David Muray says.
And voters were asked, what's the first word that comes

(08:03):
to mind when you think of Hillary Clinton? Words like
a liar, dishonest, untrustworthy were at the top of the list.
Does this tell you that your original explanation about the
private server, that you did it to carry one phone
out of convenience, that all this did not sit well
with the American people in retrospect, certainly as I look

(08:23):
back at it now. Even though it was allowed, I
should have used two accounts, one for personal one for
work related emails. That was a mistake. I'm sorry about that.
I take responsibility. Could you be any less sincere? Good grief?
You know we have a band on it over at MSNBC,

(08:44):
But I understand that they just roasted Mrs Clinton over everybody.
Mika Zinsky just was renal wentless in attacking I think
maybe he doesn't like Hillary anyway, Scarborough. The whole test
of this, this this This Morning Joe show apparently just
ripped her and this entire interview to shrink. I'll tell

(09:08):
you what, Cookie, since I have let the cout out
of the bag, let's have a temporary lifting of the band.
And why don't you go listen to some excerpts of
that from MS and me this morning. MS. And if
you were rolling on it, and you tell me if
it's as bad as the people I've read I'm reading
about it say it is a four Hillary. But this

(09:34):
in retrospect certainly is. I look back at it now,
even though it was allowed, I should have used two accounts.
Ones were personally, you know you easy to conclude here,
Mrs Clinton just resents the heck out having to do this.
One of her advisors, or a series of them. I
have told her she's got to do this. They've got

(09:55):
to somehow, They've they've got to. They've got to plug
the hole in like they're going to do something here
because it's just leaking all over the place and she's
got to stop the bleeding. And she doesn't want to
do this. She this is beneath her. She doesn't think
she owes anybody an explanation, even if what she did
was illegal. She s Hillary Clinton, she's permitted, she's allowed.

(10:19):
Nobody should have this kind of scrutiny power over her anyway.
So she goes and does this, but her heart's not
in it. She doesn't care. She resents it deeply, and
you can you can hear it, and you can see
it in her nurse ratchet staring as she is answering
questions here. Then Muwer said, well, look, I want to know,

(10:41):
in your most private of moments, is there ever an
instance when you ask yourself, why am I doing this again? Yes?
Of course, because it really is hard. My mother had
a terrible childhood. She was abandoned by her parents, she
was rejected by her housemaid at the oven fourteen, and

(11:01):
she told me, every day, you've got to get up
and fight for what you believe in, no matter how
hard it is. And I think about her a lot.
I missed her a lot. I wish you were here
with me, and I remember that, and I don't want
to just fight for me. I don't. I mean, I
can have a perfectly fine life not being president. I'm
going to fight for all the people like my mother
who needs somebody in their corner, and they need a

(11:23):
leader who cares about them. Again, well, what do we
have now? Do we not have a leader? I mean,
you've got Biden out there ragging on the economy. Get
Biden out there on Sunday and Monday in Pittsburgh talk
about rotten the economy. Yes, your people, Well, how's that?
Who's in charge? Joe, You're in charge of it. You

(11:44):
were put in charge of the stimulas. You were making
sure it was none legally and efficiently. I mean, these
people have been running the show for the last seven years.
Here's Mrs Clinton, and I'm doing it for my mother.
People like my mother needed somebody in their corner. They
need a leader who hairs about them. Again, the Obama doesn't.

(12:04):
But anyway, we've heard this technique before. Let's go back January, Portsmouth,
New Hampshire. This is a similar time. Mrs Clinton is bleeding.
Campaign is bleeding, big, big trouble, and they've got to
do something to stanch it. Here's what It's not easy.
It's not easy. Um, and I couldn't do it if
I just didn't, you know, passionately believe it was the

(12:27):
right thing to do. You know, I have so many
opportunities from this country. I just don't want to see
us fall backwards. So we just started crop. Kay, want
to play these back to back now so you can
see the technique and the strategicy. So we'll play her

(12:48):
answer to David mue where he's asking, or are you
sure you're going to do this again? Run for president?
Is what he's talking about. It's not about the email scandal.
Do you ever ask yourself in private? Why am I
doing this again? And we're going to back it up
immediately with Hillary crying in New Hampshire UH in two
thousand eight, talking about how hard it is. Yes, of course,

(13:11):
because it really is hard. My mother had a terrible childhood.
She was abandoned by her parents, she was rejected by
her grandparents. She was literally working as a housemaid at
the age of fourteen, and she told me every day,
you've got to get up and fight for what you
believe in, no matter how hard it is. And I
think about her a lot. I missed her a lot.

(13:31):
I wish she were here with me, and I remember that,
and I don't want to just fight for me. I don't.
I mean, I could have a perfectly fine life not
being president. I'm going to fight for all the people
like my mother who needs somebody in their corner and
they need a leader who cares about them. It's not easy.
It's not easy. Um, And I couldn't do it if
I just didn't, you know, passionately believe it was the

(13:54):
right thing to do. You know, I have so many
opportunity is from this country. I just don't want to
see us fall backwards. No. So, so that's the technique.
That is the Hillary Clinton way trying to get back
in touch with people is genuine. It involves a deep

(14:17):
descent into a practiced, executed emotional sense of deep caring
and then tears. And it's supposed to build a bridge
to people. It's supposed to show Hillary as real and
not robotic, to show her as as genuine. How many

(14:38):
times does she have to do this? You know, how
many restarts does she get? How many chances does Hillary
get Clinton get to show that she is a genuine,
real person. The answer to that is as many as
she needs. That's the deal. Drive by media, she's it.
She's going to get as many doovers as it takes.

(15:00):
You might remember. It was the two thousand four presidential campaign.
It was John Carey, who, by the way, served in Vietnam,
and George W. Bush was running for reelection and CBS
News in Boston scored an exclusive interview with Carry. It
was not that hard to do because presidential candidates talked
the media all the time. So they bring him into

(15:21):
the studio and a reporter starts asking him questions and
Carry starts babbling and bumbling through his answer, and it's embarrassing,
it's senseless, it doesn't make sense from sentence to sentence.
So the reporter calls a halt. Senator Carry is not looking.
Would you like to try this again? And they did

(15:43):
it again, and they went with take two. Carry got
as many chances as he needed. Now. Interestingly, that did
not happen to Teddy Kennedy. In nineteen eight, Ted Kennedy
was seeking the Democrat Party nomination away from Jim McCarter.
The Democrat Party was in destroy. Asked over what Carter
had done to the economy and the Democrat Party said,
Ted Kennedy says, I'm going to run for president. Being

(16:05):
at Kennedy, he thought that's all he had to do.
Just say he was gonna run. There was happening to
ring Roger Mutts, CBS News, So why do you want
to be president? Mary Joe did no, no, in a
neck brace. He had no answer. It doomed his chances.

(16:27):
He did not get a do over. He's the only
one
