The Drive-By Media has spent more time criticizing and trashing and questioning the fitness for office of Donald Trump than they have the pot-bellied, ludicrous, weird haircut dictator of North Korea. Just think about that, just pause for a moment.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-229032\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/LittleKim-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/LittleKim-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/LittleKim.jpg 594w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Let\u2019s pause for a moment and think, remember politics used to end at the water\u2019s edge. Democrats, of course, blew that sky high during the Iraq War. They are still so poisoned with hatred for Trump winning that they are trying to persuade Americans to line up against their own president in favor of a 32-year-old lunatic with ICBMs at his disposal in North Korea.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s mindboggling, just on the surface, the coverage of the news all week. We have to be nice to Kim Jong-un. We must not provoke Kim Jong-un. He must be reasoned with. Trump is dangerously unfit, dangerously insane, dangerously out of balance, out of kilter. We must do what we can to stop Trump. It is obscene, the poison of hatred flowing through their veins. The damage is easy to see.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Mike in Plant City, Florida, I appreciate your waiting. How are you doing?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m great, Rush. It\u2019s such an honor to talk to you, and I can\u2019t believe I get to say this: Mega dittos from a nervous, first-time 20-year caller.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Appreciate you calling. I really do. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thanks for all you do. I was calling in because I was on my way during lunch and I got to listen to one of our senators here from Florida pretty much just berating Donald Trump for standing up and tweeting and the rhetoric and all the bad stuff he\u2019s saying and all the trouble he\u2019s causing, and this has to be worked out with diplomatic approach. Our great Senator Bill Nelson, if you want to call him that. I\u2019m just so sick and tired of these wannabe people in government just ignoring us and ignoring why we put the people in there we do. And it gets very frustrating and very disappointing, and it\u2019s hard to deal with, you know?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Totally. Bill Nelson, all of these people, Mike, are actually behaving according to a script. And Nelson is classically devoted to it. He\u2019s got every bit of conventional wisdom there is. &#8220;We must focus on diplomacy. We must dial down the rhetoric. Donald Trump is endangering America and endangering the world. We must stop this tweeting and this excessive dangerous, irresponsible, unfit behavior.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-228392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-021.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"325\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-021.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-021-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-021-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 325px) 100vw, 325px\" \/>They\u2019re just reading from the party talking points that are sent out to all of them. I\u2019ll tell you, I think we\u2019re at a point here where we\u2019re seeing, we\u2019re witnessing, it\u2019s being demonstrated for us, liberalism is not sustainable. At some point it\u2019s going to implode on itself and we\u2019re watching that happen right now.<\/p>\n<p>Now, don\u2019t anybody misunderstand me. I\u2019m not saying that they\u2019ve lost their influence or anything of the sort. I\u2019m just telling you, more and more people, average ordinary people, low-information people are starting to pick up on this now and starting to realize it. And as I said, I don\u2019t want to be misunderstood. I\u2019m not claiming that we\u2019ve crossed a threshold here. But the behavior of Trump\u2019s opponents is what\u2019s odd and delusional and deranged. It\u2019s just dangerous.<\/p>\n<p>Portraying the North Korean dictator as the stable part of this equation and that Trump represents the threat, it\u2019s the result, I think, of so much poison. They really poisoned themselves with hatred. And they\u2019ve done so purposefully and happily. Hate is just pouring through every crevice, every vein, every artery to the point it now can\u2019t be covered up or hidden.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: The Drive-By Media has spent more time criticizing and trashing and questioning the fitness for office of Donald Trump than they have the pot-bellied, ludicrous, weird haircut dictator of North Korea.
