\"Listen<\/a> <\/p>\n

RUSH: As I\u2019m wandering through the news last night and today and even during the day yesterday, as I\u2019m preparing this program, it is stunning how so many reporters and commentators and guests and analysts in the Drive-By Media are really, really worried about this whole Hillary Clinton email business.  And not this new investigation that we thought yesterday wasn\u2019t happening; it turns out it is happening. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s just it\u2019s not happening from the DOJ.  But the FBI is looking into the Clinton Crime Family Foundation.  It\u2019s being run out of the Manhattan US attorney\u2019s office and the FBI there.  Now, it could still eventuate that Loretta Lynch in Washington at the DOJ would say to the New York office — the Manhattan attorney\u2019s office — “Just screw it. We\u2019re not going anywhere with it,” but the investigation is happening. <\/p>\n

<\/a>But even before you get there, just what has been learned to date, it\u2019s amazing how many people in the Drive-By Media really do believe that there are deep enough and long enough legs in this story that this could have a huge damaging effect on her candidacy.  Why would they think that?  Because up \u2019til now, they\u2019ve been pooh-poohing the whole idea. “What\u2019s this email? Why would that matter? There\u2019s no big deal! We know everything there is to know about it.  Comey said he\u2019s not gonna prosecute.  Comey said nobody would prosecute.”<\/p>\n

And yet, of all the things — of all the things out there — that you would think, that I would think might make Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign vulnerable that might cause her problems, it\u2019s this. It\u2019s this email thing. It\u2019s the fear that WikiLeaks has more and is holding whatever they\u2019re gonna dump next until October.  There is fear that she has so blatantly lied about all of this that there\u2019s no way it can\u2019t come back and bite her, and that it will be made understandable to people\/to voters who right now may find it just too complicated to care about. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s stunning how worried they are.  I\u2019ll share details of what I\u2019m talking about as we get to the audio sound bites and other elements in the news today.  And the Washington Post.  How many of you people — just in your consumption of the news every day — have concluded that the Drive-Bys think this is over?  I mean, Trump\u2019s finished. Trump doesn\u2019t have a prayer.  I mean, that\u2019s the narrative each day. That seems to me the foundation of every story that\u2019s out there. <\/p>\n

You hear stories now about fundraising problems at the RNC, that Republicans down the ballot are urging Reince Priebus to stop spending any money on Trump, that it\u2019s a waste of money.  Trump\u2019s saying, “What do you mean, stop spending money on me?  I\u2019m the guy raising the money.  Screw you! If you stop spending the money on me, you\u2019re not gonna have any money because I\u2019m the only guy raising money for you.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, down-ballot Republicans — hearing that they\u2019re gonna lose in a landslide — are demanding the RNC essentially concede that fact, forget the Trump campaign (\u2019cause it\u2019s “over”), and start trying to save the House and the Senate.  Then, of course, we had the 50 former national security aides (Republicans) all writing or signing a letter claiming that Trump\u2019s outrageously unqualified and unfit, and there\u2019s a great response to this one today that I can\u2019t wait to share with you. <\/p>\n

But amidst all of this — amidst all of this narrative that Trump\u2019s finished… “The election\u2019s over. It\u2019s gone. There\u2019s nothing he can do. He\u2019s so far down in the polls. There\u2019s no way! There\u2019s no way he can make any of it back.” This seems to be the narrative, and yet the Drive-Bys are worried silly over Hillary\u2019s email scandal. Not all of \u2019em, but a lot of them are.  And then I found this in the Washington Post, and I want to just share the headline with you: “If Donald Trump Wins in 2016, Remember This One Poll Number.”<\/a><\/line><\/p>\n

I said, “Whoa.  What do you mean, ‘If Donald Trump Wins…\u2019?  I thought everybody at the Washington Post and the New York Times and CNN and everywhere else had Trump buried already.  This campaign was finished.  It\u2019s over.  That is what they\u2019re trying to make everybody think.  So I was intrigued, because I\u2019m a person of endless curiosity.  The story\u2019s by somebody named Aaron Blake, and it begins this way: “Donald Trump is struggling in the polls, and he doesn\u2019t seem to have any desire to change anything.”<\/p>\n

By the way, that\u2019s another part of this.  The Drive-Bys seem to think Trump\u2019s okay with losing now, \u2019cause he\u2019s talking about how great a life he\u2019s gonna have if he loses.  “Oh, yeah, yeah! I\u2019ll be able to relax, put my feet up. It\u2019s gonna be great.” They\u2019re hearing that as, “He doesn\u2019t even care anymore.  Trump\u2019s so convinced he\u2019s gonna lose, he\u2019s even talking about it,” and yet: “If Donald Trump Wins in 2016, Remember This One Poll Number.” In fact, Aaron Blake quotes Trump. “He said [yesterday] morning that he\u2019ll “just keep doing the same thing I\u2019m doing right now.”<\/p>\n

No need to change.  He\u2019s gonna keep doing everything he did that got him victories in the primaries: Why should I change anything?  Trump is quoted as saying, “‘At the end it\u2019s either gonna work or I\u2019m gonna — well, I\u2019m gonna very, very nice, long vacation,\u2019 he added.  And indeed some are starting to predict that Trump is due for very, very nice, long vacation after November 8th.  But if he\u2019s not,” writes Aaron Blake, “remember this poll number.”  And here it is:<\/line><\/p>\n

“Bloomberg in its new survey attempted to approximate Trump\u2019s view of the state of affairs in the United States, and it did the same for Clinton. Here\u2019s the Trump description (which didn\u2019t name him but is [obvious]).” What Bloomberg did here is present to people in their poll two descriptions of the current state and direction of the country and asked people to choose which one they most or more identified with.  So here is the Trump description:<\/p>\n

“‘The US is in a dark and dangerous place, with threats from overseas and within our borders.\u2019 And here\u2019s the [Bloomberg] Clinton description: ‘The US is in a strong position for progress on the economy and national security.'” So voters in this poll were given two options to sign on with whichever direction they think the country\u2019s headed in.  Again, “The US is in a dark and dangerous place, threats from overseas and within our borders,” or what Hillary\u2019s out trying to say:<\/p>\n

Hey, things are great! We are “in a strong position” on our economy; recovery is right around the corner! It\u2019s gonna grow like crazy, and our national security has never been better.  “Given those two options,” and this is a likely voter poll, “56% … picked the Trump version, and 40% picked the Clinton version.” Now, that\u2019s a total of 96%; so 4% were undecided. <\/p>\n

This is a 16-point advantage for Trump.  So Mr. Blake is saying after all of this is said and done and if Trump wins this, he thinks it\u2019s gonna be this answer, that a huge majority of Americans think that we\u2019re on the wrong track, and that Hillary Clinton\u2019s answer to it doesn\u2019t even address it honestly. It\u2019s a 14-point swing.  I just mention this because if you know how to digest these Drive-Bys, they will tell you what bothers them.<\/p>\n

I mean, while they\u2019re out bragging and acting all arrogant and condescending about how it\u2019s over and Trump\u2019s a fool and they\u2019ve succeeded in defeating him and it\u2019s just a matter of time. If you know where to look and you know how to read these guys and interpret what they\u2019re saying, you can find out what their fears really are.  That\u2019s come I know that they\u2019re scared to death over this Hillary email.  They\u2019re even coming out and admitting that. <\/p>\n

But this one! You know what this is akin to?  This is akin to the question that is always asked in exit polls: “Cares about people like me.”  In the 2012 exit polls, that\u2019s the question that Obama beat Romney on 81 to 19.  And when you saw that poll, when you saw that result on the exit polls… I\u2019ll speak for myself: That\u2019s when I knew the election was lost.  If that… And there was one other that cemented it, and that is that 56% of people in 2012 still blamed George W. Bush for the economy. <\/p>\n

So after four years of Obama and his wrecking ball on the economy, the American voter by 56% or close to 60%, still blamed Bush.  So I saw those two things, and, you know, I watched the returns, but I knew it was over.  The only thing I held out hope on was the exit polls were not right. But if they were right, if they accurately represented the way people voted, then Romney was toast — and he turned out to be. <\/p>\n

And this is the same kind of question.  So…  And that\u2019s what I was saying yesterday, folks: 70% in other poll the people think this country\u2019s headed in the wrong direction.  Seventy percent are not happy with the direction we\u2019re going, and Hillary Clinton has been there every step of the way.  Whatever has gone wrong in this country, Hillary Clinton\u2019s been there.  Donald Trump hasn\u2019t been.  No matter what else you want to say.  <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH:  A couple of more things on this Bloomberg poll that the Washington Post is worried about, in which 56% agree with the perception that the country “is in a dark and dangerous place, with threats from overseas and within our borders.” That\u2019s the Trump take.  Although, you know, it\u2019s not. It really isn\u2019t Trump\u2019s. Trump is positive.  This is what everybody\u2019s missing.  Trump\u2019s outlook on this stuff is fixing it.  Hillary\u2019s outlook is phony.  But Trump\u2019s outlook… You know, they\u2019re saying Trump\u2019s America is deep and dark and negative.<\/line><\/p>\n

No, no, no. Trump is just acknowledging what everybody thinks, and is proposing ways out of it.  Trump is ultimately uplifting and positive, according to his supporters.  There is no way you\u2019re gonna get Trump supporters to agree with the proposition that he\u2019s down in the dumps and dark and negative and pessimistic and all is lost.  It\u2019s the exact opposite, in fact.  The pessimism is associated with Hillary Clinton.  She wants more of the same — and more of the same would be dark and dank and America in decline. <\/p>\n

This is not hard. <\/p>\n

The Drive-Bys don\u2019t want to see it that way, but other data in this poll: 68% think the country\u2019s headed in the wrong direction.  So it\u2019s consistent with other polls.  Only 25% say the country\u2019s headed on the right track.  And back in September, you know what the number was?  Fifty percent thought the country was on the wrong track.  Now it\u2019s up to 68%.  You know, it\u2019s an 18% increase.  Guess what the top priorities in this Bloomberg poll are?<\/p>\n

Number one: Unemployment and jobs. <\/p>\n

Number two: Terrorism. <\/p>\n

Number three: Decline in income. <\/p>\n

All of those can be attached to failed Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton policies if somebody would just do it.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I mentioned earlier — and we\u2019ve got more data on this coming up — about how the Drive-Bys are worried. They\u2019re really, really worried.  They got two narratives out there — actually, one.  The predominant narrative is the election\u2019s over. “Trump\u2019s a doofus, Trump\u2019s an idiot, Trump\u2019s blown it. Even if he wanted to win, he doesn\u2019t know how to win. Trump\u2019s horrible, doesn\u2019t have a campaign.”<\/p>\n

It\u2019s over and Hillary\u2019s the de facto, default winner — particularly on CNN.  However, they\u2019re scared to death over this email problem of hers.  They\u2019re scared to death over there. It\u2019s so complicated to try to explain. I really am surprised by this, and whenever I\u2019m really surprised by something, then there\u2019s something I don\u2019t know.  Yet. <\/line><\/p>\n

‘Cause why are they so afraid of this?  This is so complicated, it\u2019s really difficult to explain to somebody who don\u2019t understand it, which is the definition of a low-information voter.  So if a low-information voter can\u2019t even comprehend what went on here with her server and the emails and all, then what\u2019s to worry about? But they\u2019re scared to death.  Listen to this media montage from yesterday and last night.<\/p>\n

CHUCK TODD: The October surprise is sittin\u2019 right in front of us!<\/p>\n

DONNY DEUTSCH: What would be the kind of thing that would be a game-ender for Hillary Clinton?<\/p>\n

JOHN BERMAN: You nervous there might be an October surprise somewhere in these e-mails?<\/p>\n

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: How realistic is the possibility of an October surprise or some sort of damning revelation?<\/p>\n

BOB WOODWARD: The people who have this — the Russians, the Chinese, God knows — can kind of deal it out in a way that could be quite damaging.<\/p>\n

SANDRA SMITH: Will there be an October surprise?<\/p>\n

A.B. STODDARD: A big document dump of e-mails indicating that this kind of access was provided, really could end her candidacy — and if they don\u2019t think that that could happen, Democrats have their head in the sand.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  See what I\u2019m talking about here?  That\u2019s A.B. Stoddard on Fox News, meaning if there are emails indicating the kind of access — and we know that Hillary and Cheryl Mills and Huma “Danger” Abedin, whatever her name is, Weiner. They are trading access between the Clinton Foundation and the State Department and trading access between Hillary Clinton and her future presidency via the foundation.  Obviously they\u2019re afraid that in the emails that have been hacked by somebody, that the Russians are looking for documents like this. <\/p>\n

And they think if those emails are produced, she\u2019s toast. <\/p>\n

You heard it. <\/p>\n

They are scared to death that this is gonna happen.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here\u2019s Dave in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania.  Glad you called, sir.  You\u2019re up first.  It\u2019s great to have you here with us.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Well, thank you for taking my call, Rush, and United States Coast Guard dittos.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Thank you, sir.  Appreciate that.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  Before I get to my question, I want to tell you two reasons why I listen to you.  One is you say what I think and what I believe, which is great.  And the other thing is, you can read the stitches on the fastball, the curveball, a slider, that the left or the Democrats throw.  And you can explain it to us that makes it understandable and sensible, and I want to thank you for that.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH:  I appreciate that, sir, very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER:  My question to you is, a while back there was, I forget the guy\u2019s name, and I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll remember, he said the mere appearance of impropriety should spark the investigation, no evidence, but we should investigate, and do you remember what that was —<\/p>\n

RUSH:  That was an allegation made, there have been many of these that the Democrats have employed, but the first iteration of this, a Columbia professor named Gary Sick wrote an entire book largely about how George H. W. Bush secretly flew to Paris in the summer of 1980 and made a deal with the Iranian mullahs to hold on to the hostages \u2019til after the election and release them if Reagan won. <\/p>\n

And Tom Foley, Speaker of the House, said, “You know what?  This is highly improper.  The appearance of impropriety and the seriousness of the charge is such that we must investigate.” <\/p>\n

“But Mr. Foley, there\u2019s no evidence.” <\/p>\n

“It doesn\u2019t matter.  The seriousness of the charge is so crucial that despite the fact there\u2019s no evidence, we must look into this.”  Which they did.  They had an entire congressional hearing.  And the next time was Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Look.  Forget Trump for just a second here, folks.  We\u2019ll get back to Trump here in just a second.  The Drive-By Media, they have already got Trump buried, except they don\u2019t.  They are scared to death things are gonna blow up on Hillary Clinton. <\/p>\n

And I want to replay this sound bite, which is a media montage of several people in the Drive-By Media worried about her emails and all of this back-and-forth between the Clinton Foundation and the Department of State using Huma Abedin, Cheryl Mills<\/a>.  These are here chief of staff and chief aide, and they should have nothing to do with the Clinton Foundation.  They\u2019re commingling efforts.  The Clinton Foundation is raising money based on promises being made by Hillary Clinton in the State Department.  People applying for positions in the foundation are asking for access to Mrs. Clinton, and these two are arranging it. <\/p>\n

<\/a>You talk about the appearance of impropriety.  This is exactly what the Drive-Bys are worried about.  Even Charles Krauthammer said recently on Fox that if evidence ever is produced, if these emails are found, these 33,000 — and 44 of them have been, which is why we know as much as we do — if more of these emails are found, and they\u2019re out there — somebody has them — Trump says maybe the Russians can find them.  Whoever has them, they are worried to death that there is an email thread or two that will document all of this that everybody knows is going on, there just isn\u2019t any point-to-it proof right now. <\/p>\n

These people are worried that if that proof is forthcoming, she\u2019s finished, no matter how many gaffes Trump makes, no matter how much baloney he gets into.  They\u2019re scared to death about it.  And Krauthammer even said, this could be the end of her campaign.  That\u2019s what first called my attention to this, is the Drive-Bys, you know, when they talk about this, it\u2019s over, Trump\u2019s dead and buried politically.  Hillary\u2019s gonna win this thing. Trump\u2019s such a bad candidate. Trump doesn\u2019t have any organization. He doesn\u2019t even have an office set up in Ohio, you know, this kind of stuff.  They\u2019re writing him off. <\/p>\n

But then they start talking about how her campaign, you know, she\u2019s damaged goods. That\u2019s what has so many people frustrated, to be bluntly honest about this.  The Democrats have nominated the absolute most vulnerable, worst candidate they could have put up there, because they had to.  They owed her.  But she has so much baggage, she has so many vulnerabilities.  She can\u2019t tell the truth about anything.  She doesn\u2019t speak well.  She is not charismatic.  She is not confidence inspiring. <\/p>\n

There is nothing about her that is in any way familiar or common in terms of the gifts that Obama and Bill Clinton have in the realm of politics.  She just is skilless and talentless in this stuff.  And they know it.  I want to play this montage again and follow it up by Steven Brill, who was on Charlie Rose.  Charlie Rose is scared to death. Charlie Rose is talking to anybody and everybody about this.  Here\u2019s the montage again, just to put it in perspective for you.  It\u2019s Chuck Todd, Donny Deutsch, John Berman, Mika Brzezinski, Bob Woodward of Woodward and Bernstein fame, Sandra Smith at Fox News, A.B. Stoddard.  Listen to this.<\/p>\n

CHUCK TODD: The October surprise is sittin\u2019 right in front of us!<\/line><\/p>\n

DONNY DEUTSCH: What would be the kind of thing that would be a game-ender for Hillary Clinton?<\/p>\n

JOHN BERMAN: You nervous there might be an October surprise somewhere in these e-mails?<\/p>\n

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: How realistic is the possibility of an October surprise or some sort of damning revelation?<\/p>\n

BOB WOODWARD: The people who have this — the Russians, the Chinese, God knows — can kind of deal it out in a way that could be quite damaging.<\/p>\n

SANDRA SMITH: Will there be an October surprise?<\/p>\n

A.B. STODDARD: A big document dump of e-mails indicating that this kind of access was provided, really could end her candidacy — and if they don\u2019t think that that could happen, Democrats have their head in the sand.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Do you realize, they\u2019re making it clear, they don\u2019t think they could save her if this stuff comes out.  That\u2019s maybe the most incredible — they don\u2019t think they could cover it up.  I thought the Drive-Bys were of the frame of mind that there\u2019s nothing they couldn\u2019t sweep under the rug if they had to. There\u2019s nothing that they couldn\u2019t keep the American people from learning.  There\u2019s nothing that can damage her.  But they clearly — “end her candidacy,” that was A.B. Stoddard. <\/p>\n

So here on Charlie Rose last night on PBS speaking with Steven Brill, the author and journalist. He had a magazine once.  What was the name of that magazine?  It was a media magazine.  That\u2019s why everybody in the media liked it.  I don\u2019t remember what it was.  Anyway, here\u2019s the question Charlie Rose is asking him about this October Surprise.  Folks, they are worried that somebody\u2019s got these emails.  The Russians, or even ISIS.  They\u2019re worried that ISIS or the Russians have Hillary\u2019s emails and what does that mean? <\/p>\n

BRILL: You could have an October surprise if you take it that the terrorists would like to have a Trump presidency because, again, he\u2019s willing to declare war on them which is what they want, then the next logical step is they might want to disrupt the election so that Trump is more favored. The way to do that is to scare more and more people —<\/p>\n

ROSE:  You think a terrorist attack —<\/p>\n

BRILL:  With an October —<\/p>\n

ROSE: — would work to the advantage of a Trump candidacy?<\/p>\n

BRILL: That\u2019s what all the pundits seem to say, which is, you know the more scared we are — it\u2019s his campaign rhetoric. That\u2019s what he says is you should be scared and, therefore, you should vote for me because Secretary Clinton is weak and Obama\u2019s weak. He hasn\u2019t gone after terrorism the way I will.<\/p>\n

RUSH:  Well, I think if that ever manifests itself, if there\u2019s a terror attack — by the way, there have been terror attacks.  There was San Bernardino, there was Fort Hood, there\u2019s been any number of these things, and what do we hear?  We can\u2019t call it what it is.  I mean, if there\u2019s another terror attack, of course Hillary is vulnerable, because she\u2019s part of the Obama crowd that\u2019s tried to tell us that we haven\u2019t seen what we see.  And we don\u2019t know what we obviously see, that we\u2019re wrong, it\u2019s not Islam.  I mean, they cover for \u2019em. <\/p>\n

Damn right if there\u2019s another terror attack there\u2019s no way it helps Hillary.  She\u2019s out there in utter denial about \u2019em.  The way these people think — tell me if you agree with this.  These people on the left, these media types, the Democrats, they actually think that ISIS and Putin and the ChiComs would much rather have Trump in there \u2019cause Trump is a joke.  They could have their way with Trump.  They would much rather so they\u2019ll do whatever they can to get Trump elected \u2019cause Trump they think they could just have their way with. <\/p>\n

But Hillary, oh, no, they don\u2019t want Hillary. That woman\u2019s tough. That woman\u2019s no nonsense. That woman\u2019s not gonna put up with anything from ISIS. She\u2019s not gonna put up with anything from Putin, she\u2019s not gonna. <\/line><\/p>\n

You think that\u2019s the way our enemies look at it?  I think our enemies are looking at Barack Obama as practically — well, I was gonna say ally.  I\u2019ll say godsend.  Look at the Middle East. ISIS, Islam, Muslim Brotherhood, whatever they want, they take. (imitating Obama) “You better not, I\u2019m drawing that line right here, see that, you cross that, well, you just better not.”  Then they cross it.  And Obama forgets that he drew it. <\/p>\n

So I don\u2019t follow their premise that these enemies of ours are deathly afraid of Obama, very, very afraid of Hillary, oh, yes, very worried about Hillary.  I think it\u2019s the exact opposite.  I mean, they have to take Trump at his word and Trump\u2019s talking about wiping them out.  Hillary isn\u2019t.  Hillary\u2019s talking about treating them with respect.  Hillary\u2019s talking about empathizing with them.  We must empathize with our enemies.  I think these people have it exactly backwards.  But still, the point is they are scared to death that something\u2019s out there that could end her candidacy, and it isn\u2019t Trump.  It\u2019s her own work product, her emails and all the rest of that.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
