Bush, literally hated and despised, may as well have taken the NFL into Iraq.&nbsp; I don\u2019t think they understand when the Kaepernick stuff starts and other players pick it up, I wonder if the people in the NFL office think, &#8220;You know, we should allow it because that\u2019s where the culture is going and we gotta be hip and we gotta be open to free expression and all that.&#8221;&nbsp; I don\u2019t think they understand that most of their fans expect owners, coaches, and leagues, to stamp that stuff out.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Well, they\u2019re the ones who are paying them, so they should.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Well, that\u2019s another thing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; And that leads me into what I, you know, what I called to talk about, and &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Go ahead.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; &#8212; it\u2019s just a case of lawlessness.&nbsp; You see, I\u2019m African-American, and I never voted for Obama, and I told friends not to vote.&nbsp; And do you know how many people who voted for him were friends of mine that call me back and apologize to me?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Really?<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_127796\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Trump-Whitehouse-Fireworks.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">CALLER:&nbsp; Yeah.&nbsp; And I knew exponentially that the nation would get worse because of the culture of lawlessness.&nbsp; This guy was a community rabble-rouser, you know.&nbsp; He\u2019s anti-Constitution.&nbsp; He\u2019s an abortionist.&nbsp; So that spirit is gonna, you know, kind of spread over the nation while he\u2019s president.&nbsp; And look at it today.&nbsp; It\u2019s a spirit of lawlessness.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; That\u2019s how community agitation and organizers accomplish what they accomplish, get people to act outside the law.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Absolutely.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; In fact, to make your point, let me tell you a little short, short story.&nbsp; When I first started this program and we first got our affiliate in Los Angeles, I went out there to do the show from there for a week and to get to know the people and let \u2019em know they\u2019d made a very wise choice and so forth. They set up newspaper interviews, which is what they thought they had to do. It was not the LA Times &#8212; maybe it was the LA Times.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I had a coffee or something with the LA Times and we were at a point where AIDS and gay activism was going nuts and they were invading St. Patrick\u2019s and throwing condoms at the cardinal and general unrest.&nbsp; And this reporter was totally sympathetic to it and thought that I was the meanest, worst SOB on earth for not understanding it.&nbsp; And she said, &#8220;It\u2019s the only way they can be noticed.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And I said, &#8220;Let me turn this around.&nbsp; I\u2019m in the get-noticed business.&nbsp; I\u2019ve got a radio program.&nbsp; You seem to disapprove of what I do to get noticed, but I\u2019m not breaking any laws.&nbsp; All I\u2019m doing is talking and you think I\u2019m a reprobate and an irresponsible, dangerous character, and these people are out there actually impacting lives.&#8221;&nbsp; Not just this group, but every public protester like what happened in Ferguson, you\u2019re talking about community organizers, it all boils down to ideology.&nbsp; If the left is engaged in doing it, the lawlessness, then it\u2019s justified because that\u2019s what they have to do to be seen, to be heard, and to make so-called progress and so forth.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; That\u2019s all they understand.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Yep.&nbsp; But your point was we\u2019re gonna elect a president who sanctions it and pretty much promotes it or authorizes or looks the other way at police.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; And that\u2019s gonna be the spirit over the nation.&nbsp; Now, I have to disagree with you with the riots if Trump gets elected.&nbsp; I believe the whole spirit will change of the nation.&nbsp; And I think people will become more American citizens.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Wait a minute.&nbsp; Let me make sure I understand you.&nbsp; Because I like this.&nbsp; You think that &#8212; can I infer that you\u2019re a Trump supporter?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Absolutely.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Okay.&nbsp; Good.&nbsp; That\u2019s what I thought.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Unequivocally.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; So you think when Trump wins that there\u2019s gonna be this massive happiness, this overwhelming spirit of positive change that is going to accompany Trump\u2019s win, and because the number of people supporting Trump is huge, I\u2019m sure you believe the pollsters are not catching it, and &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &nbsp;Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; &#8212; the number of people that are gonna be enthusiastic about this are gonna dwarf the people opposed to it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; Absolutely.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; And I believe there are many people who vote Democrat that will vote for Trump.&nbsp; I took several people to see <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2016\/07\/28\/dinesh_d_souza_on_hillary_s_america\">D\u2019Souza\u2019s movie<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"585\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/r7e6gLht6OQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Yeah?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:&nbsp; And they said they had no idea &#8212; and these were blacks &#8212; they said they had no idea, and they said they would never vote Democrat again.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Well, unfortunately that\u2019s not data.&nbsp; I\u2019m glad to hear it.&nbsp; I can tell you a story, you can tell me, it\u2019s called anecdotal.&nbsp; It\u2019s not data, but it\u2019s encouraging.&nbsp; But, you know, the interesting thing is, I think not only is that happening, I think the real hidden, possible hidden so-called silent majority out there supporting Trump is really in this group of people that hasn\u2019t voted in a long time \u2019cause they\u2019re so fed up, in addition to the people who vote and who are registered.&nbsp; I do think that <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2016\/08\/08\/what_to_think_about_the_polls\">Robert Costa of the Washington Post <\/a>was right about the fact that there\u2019s a whole slew of people so fed up they haven\u2019t voted for a long time, but they are registering now as Republicans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_127821\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/TrumpSignRally-D.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">You disagree with that, Mr. Snerdley, or are you yelling at a caller?&nbsp; Okay.&nbsp; Okay.&nbsp; He must be yelling at a caller in there \u2019cause he looks like he\u2019s chewing me out, you know, as I\u2019m speaking here.&nbsp; But I\u2019ll tell you something, Bill. (interruption) Well, I know, but this is so interesting.&nbsp; Here this guy calls from Los Angeles, and he\u2019s heard me predict what\u2019s gonna happen if Trump wins.&nbsp; He\u2019s coming at this, as a Trump supporter, this could be the greatest thing to happen in this country in 30 years, Trump getting elected, which a lot of Trump supporters think.&nbsp; And so it would be quite natural to assume it\u2019s gonna be a party.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s worried I\u2019m putting a damper on this.&nbsp; I was trepidatious about making this prediction, \u2019cause I don\u2019t want to affect anybody\u2019s vote by predicting mayhem.&nbsp; I don\u2019t want to cause people to be afraid to vote for Trump. But at the same time I was &#8212; another caller asked me the question and I wanted to delve into it and answer it honestly.&nbsp; But I\u2019m fascinating by all this today.&nbsp; We had two really great questions, and this guy, this guy Bill from Los Angeles with the opposite perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Bill, the only thing &#8212; I was not trying to put a damper on Trump\u2019s potential eventual win by any stretch of the imagination.&nbsp; I was simply doing what I always do, and that is deconstructing liberal Democrats and explaining to people who they are.&nbsp; And they are going to be &#8212; well, it\u2019s really not predictable.&nbsp; But the odds are they\u2019re gonna be out of control.&nbsp; But I don\u2019t want that to be a damper on anything.&nbsp; In fact, I think all these riots actually end up hurting Hillary.&nbsp; I think they end up helping Trump.&nbsp; If you must know, that\u2019s what I think is happening.&nbsp; I don\u2019t think any of this stuff\u2019s hurting Trump, despite the media trying to make it look like Trump is somehow responsible for it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I think it\u2019s the exact opposite of that.&nbsp; But, please, you Trumpsters out there, by predicting the dissatisfaction, let\u2019s leave it at that, that the left would have over Trump victory, I\u2019m not arguing against a Trump win, don\u2019t misunderstand.&nbsp; They\u2019ve thrown everything they have at Trump, and they\u2019re not through throwing things at Trump.&nbsp; And folks, I\u2019m talking about people that are gonna lose their minds is what I\u2019m talking about here.&nbsp; I\u2019m talking about people that are gonna lose control.&nbsp; I\u2019m talking about people that are gonna be just on the short side of insane.&nbsp; Hillary Clinton\u2019s gonna need to be Nurse Ratched in defeat to help control these people.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: &nbsp;This is Bill in Los Angeles.&nbsp; Bill, great to have you with us here on the EIB Network today.&nbsp; Hello.
