That was Trump sticking it in a little further.&nbsp; He\u2019s toying with them.&nbsp;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t get it.&nbsp; The lack of sense of humor, being wound so tight to not understand satire, parody, or to not understand somebody\u2019s personality.&nbsp; We all have different personalities.&nbsp; I understand Trump from the day he came down that escalator.&nbsp; And it\u2019s not because I\u2019ve played golf with him a couple of times.&nbsp; I know the way he thinks and I way he says things to people, talks to people, the way he makes points, the way he tries to tell people what he thinks, the way he tries to be persuasive.&nbsp; It isn\u2019t hard.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s, as I say, a teachable moment for me because they don\u2019t understand. For example &#8212; talk about myself for a minute &#8212; when I do this program, there\u2019s a whole heck of a lot of it here where I\u2019m just trying to be funny, outrageously funny, a little over the line funny, push the envelope, that\u2019s where they lose it.&nbsp; We\u2019re not allowed to push the envelope anymore, not allowed to cross the line of propriety that they define.&nbsp; There isn\u2019t anything funny. There isn\u2019t anything funny about whatever it is I\u2019m talking about.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So they take things that are intended as humorous comments or a joke and they attach serious political meaning to it and then proceed to get profoundly, deeply outraged and say it\u2019s unacceptable, this is intolerable, this will not stand.&nbsp; And they\u2019re doing the same thing to Trump, or trying to.&nbsp; But his supporters all get it.&nbsp; &#8220;But, Mr. Limbaugh, it\u2019s not his supporters that are the problem.&nbsp; Trump must engage in outreach and try to explain to the people who don\u2019t get what he\u2019s trying to say.&#8221;&nbsp; Well, I understand all that, I understand that thinking.&nbsp; But that isn\u2019t my point.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>My point is that all of this near unanimous, belief in something that genuinely is &#8212; you talk about unhinged, to believe Trump said what you think he said when he didn\u2019t say it.&nbsp; Didn\u2019t even say it.&nbsp; To go out then and believe he said it or try to convince other people he said it, convince yourself what he really meant, it\u2019s unhinged.&nbsp; If these people had been around in the 1700s we\u2019d have never had a revolution.&nbsp; They would have never tolerated the Founding Fathers\u2019 objections to King George.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>They would have wanted to put in jail people like James Madison and Patrick Henry because they dared speak out against the establishment.&nbsp; We\u2019d have never had the revolution if the people in the Democrat Party today had been ruling the roost in the media back then.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Let me ask you a question, folks.&nbsp; How many people in the establishment have said Donald Trump is unacceptable?&nbsp; Obama said it, Hillary has said it, every Democrat, Tim Kaine, Biden, they\u2019ve all said he\u2019s unacceptable. Even some Republicans have said he\u2019s unacceptable.&nbsp; Donald Trump is unacceptable.&nbsp; They\u2019re the ones trying to tell us that Trump poses this great threat that he might not accept the results of the election, but who is it that\u2019s actually telling us who and who isn\u2019t unacceptable?&nbsp; And that\u2019s Trump, and they\u2019re telling us about him.<\/p>\n<p>JOHNNY DONOVAN:&nbsp; And now, from sunny south Florida, it\u2019s Open Line Friday!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Yeah!&nbsp; Donald Trump\u2019s unacceptable!&nbsp; We\u2019re not gonna put up with Donald Trump!&nbsp; Nobody should.&nbsp; Why\u2019s Trump unacceptable?&nbsp; That means over half the country\u2019s unacceptable as far as these people are concerned.&nbsp; It\u2019s a classic example.&nbsp; We can\u2019t have Trump look what Trump, Trump say he won\u2019t accept the result of the election.&nbsp; Which is not what he said.&nbsp; Well, they\u2019re saying they won\u2019t accept him!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s Open Line Friday.&nbsp; 800-282-2882 if you want to be on the program.&nbsp; The email address, ElRushbo@eibnet.com.&nbsp; I\u2019m sorry.&nbsp; Eibnet.us.&nbsp; Sorry.&nbsp; I keep screwing &#8212; I need to write this down.&nbsp; &#8216;Cause I have gotta have 25 years of syllabic memory here.&nbsp; ElRushbo@eibnet.us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_129358\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/RushEnemy-Of-The-State-C.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">I thought of something.&nbsp; I made a comment in the last hour that I\u2019m just like you, I know what it\u2019s like to feel ostracized.

It\u2019s more offensive than whatever they think he did with these women. It\u2019s more offensive than what he did when they claim he mocked a disabled reporter.<\/p>\n<p>To say he\u2019s gonna wait for the outcome of the election to decide how he wants to approach it.&nbsp; Why, this may constitute the single greatest assault on freedom as we have known it, if you listen to these people.&nbsp; And there\u2019s no exception.&nbsp; Every one of \u2019em, hundreds, thousands of reporters and media people and professional political people around the country all act and think the same way.&nbsp; And it just doesn\u2019t make sense, unless there\u2019s something going on that we don\u2019t know.&nbsp; &#8216;Cause this is not rational behavior.&nbsp; It\u2019s not a rational reaction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s further emphasized by Trump going out the next day and jamming \u2019em by saying, &#8220;Okay.&nbsp; I\u2019ll accept the results, if I win.&#8221;&nbsp; That\u2019s designed to make \u2019em explode after they\u2019ve been simmering all night long.&nbsp; He\u2019s toying with \u2019em.
