Jeb Blames the Pope for Trump<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay, other things in the news.  Jeb Bush went, of all places, to MSNBC to kind of lay into Donald Trump. What he actually said — we have the audio sound bites coming up — the point that he made, two points, you Trump supporters, you\u2019re gonna be very, very unhappy. You\u2019re gonna be so disillusioned. If he wins, if he becomes president, you\u2019re gonna feel like you bought the biggest bill of goods \u2019cause there\u2019s not gonna be a wall, and there isn\u2019t gonna be any change on immigration.  There isn\u2019t gonna be any serious action taken on Muslim immigration. <\/p>\n

In other words, everything you think Trump\u2019s gonna do, he\u2019s not gonna do it.  He\u2019s not gonna do it.  He doesn\u2019t even really want to do it.  And when it comes to down to pedal-to-the-metal time, he won\u2019t do it, and you\u2019re gonna feel so disillusioned, you\u2019re gonna regret what you did.  And then Jeb actually laid the blame for some of this at the feet of Il Papa, Pope Francis. <\/line><\/p>\n

You know why?  ‘Cause the pope did a mass there at the border, an open borders mass, if you will, that attracted tens of thousands, and it provided a picture to go along with what Trump was warning about and saying he wasn\u2019t gonna permit.  So Jeb thinks the fact that the pope came over there and did a giant mass at the border did not help, either, did not help him, did not help Ted Cruz, didn\u2019t help any of the other Republican candidates.  <\/p>\n

On This Show, I\u2019m the Decider<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, a programming note.  There is an interfaith service for the slain officers that just began about ten minutes or so ago in Dallas, and the president is going to be speaking at this event.  He just arrived in Dallas.  I just saw footage of Air Force One taxiing in to its disembarkation location on whatever Air Force Base it landed at. <\/p>\n

And I just want to let you local affiliates know that because of the unknown aspects of this, we\u2019re not going to be JIPping the whole thing.  I realize many of you affiliates will, particularly in Dallas and that area.  I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll bump out and televise or broadcast the entire Obama thing. <\/p>\n

It gives us problems if we go full bore on anything like this, not just Obama.  It presents programming problems for best-of replays.  We have to do basically a full three-hour program here every day, because they are used in replays. And if we deliver to our affiliates a three-hour program with a 20-minute hole in it because of something we covered live and JIPped… So we just make the decision, leave it up to the local affiliates.<\/p>\n

But I want you to know that whatever your affiliate does, we are here, so you can stream it at RushLimbaugh.com or any number of other places if your local affiliate decides to preempt the program and cover it, which I have total understanding if any affiliate wants to do this.  We don\u2019t even know what time Obama\u2019s gonna begin.  It creates all kinds of problems going through commercial breaks.  There have been rare occasions where we have JIPped a live presidential address.  They\u2019re rare. We have done it.<\/p>\n

What we might do is listen to five or ten minutes or six seconds of comment, move back, come in and out of it, but we\u2019ll still furnish a complete three-hour program to our affiliate stations here each and every day, as they expect, with existing commercial availabilities as well.  So just to give a heads-up to anybody involved.  <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Get this.  I just got an email:  “Who decides when you\u2019re gonna preempt your show for …?” What do you mean, “Who?” I do!  What do you think, there\u2019s some Mr. Oz somewhere behind some curtain pulling the strings on that?  I decide that.  I\u2019m the CEO, I\u2019m the host, I\u2019m the program director, and the producer.  What do you mean, “Who decides?”  I do.  There is no political director, no news director, no program director.  I\u2019m it. It\u2019s my decision. <\/p>\n

Okay.  We\u2019re gonna go to the phones.  People have been patiently waiting and we\u2019re gonna start in… (interruption) Decides what?  Who decides…? Oh, by the way, speaking of which, folks, I should tell you: It\u2019s annual guy golf trip time.  As you know, this month every year I\u2019m gone for a couple days, so I\u2019m gonna gone Thursday and Friday, and I have instituted new rules on the golf course.  I can\u2019t wait to try \u2019em out.  And it\u2019s gonna be in a tournament. I\u2019ve got a member-guest tournament coming up.<\/line><\/p>\n

And, you know, if I happen to hit the ball out of bounds, say, on first tee, I\u2019m just gonna tee up again and say, “I didn\u2019t intend to do that, so there\u2019s no penalty.”  I\u2019m just gonna see what people do.  And if they start laughing, I\u2019m just gonna continue. I\u2019m gonna hit it again.  “Wait! You can\u2019t! (stammering) You — you — you — you gotta lay out up there! It\u2019s lateral.”  “I don\u2019t care! I didn\u2019t intend to hit it out of bounds — and I\u2019ll tell you this: If I hit a shot in the water today? There\u2019s no way I\u2019m taking it. I\u2019m announcing right now: I do not intend to end up in the water on any hole, so if it happens, I\u2019m doing that over.”  <\/p>\n

Rush\u2019s Annual Golf Trip Is Coming Up<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

RUSH:  Okay.  That\u2019s it, folks.  Out of time for today, but we\u2019re back tomorrow, and we\u2019re gonna do Open Line Friday on Wednesday tomorrow, \u2019cause I\u2019m not gonna be here Friday.  Annual golf trip.  So see you then, folks…  Back before you know it.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
