<\/p>\nRUSH: Jim Jordan was on with Stephanopoulos and he was on fire too. Let me find the bites here. I got \u2019em coming up in just a second here. That\u2019s right. Audio sound bites 14 and 15. We\u2019ll probably throw 16 in here too. So Jim Jordan from Ohio is on with George Stephanopoulos — from the Clinton war room!<\/p>\n
George Stephanopoulos was one of the participants in the Clinton anti-impeachment war room, for crying out loud. There he is now a chief anchor, chief managing editor, whatever the hell these fallacious titles are for news people. So Jordan demolishes Stephanopoulos here on Trump and Biden and China. Stephanopoulos\u2019 question: “So, do you think it\u2019s appropriate for President Trump to ask China and Ukraine to investigate Biden.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
JORDAN: George, do you really think he was serious about thinking that China\u2019s gonna investigate the Biden family?<\/p>\n
STEPHANOPOULOS: He said it right there in public.<\/p>\n
JORDAN: I think he\u2019s getting the press all spun up about this. Remember, this is the president who\u2019s been tougher on China than any other president. He wants to make sure China quits stealing America\u2019s intellectual property. He wants to make sure they start abiding by international trade norms. And tougher than anyone.<\/p>\n
STEPHANOPOULOS: He said directly —<\/p>\n
JORDAN: He put tariffs on China. And you really think he says, the same guy who\u2019s been tough on China now thinks, oh, China is gonna investigate the Bidens? He was just making a statement to just underscore how wrong it is what took place here with Hunter Biden getting these deals that he got. That\u2019s all he\u2019s doing.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Now, the left is trying to take Jordan\u2019s answer here and make big fun of it and characterizing it as a very, very feeble attempt to exonerate Trump. But you know what it\u2019s like? It has a precedent when Trump was down in Miami and asked the Russians to try to find Hillary\u2019s emails since nobody else could. The media and everybody\u2019s going nuts, where are Hillary\u2019s missing emails? They wanted \u2019em to be able to hide them. The media wanted to be able to protect them. And nobody could find \u2019em.<\/p>\n
She had 60,000 emails on the server, she only submitted 30,000 and then told everybody the other 30,000 were just about yoga class and her daughter\u2019s wedding and registry, 30,000 emails on that stuff, and that somehow it just vanished. So people are expressing frustration and Trump said, “Hey, Russia, maybe you can find \u2018em.” What\u2019d the Democrats do? “He\u2019s colluding. Did you hear that? He\u2019s actually asking, he\u2019s asking the Russians to hack Hillary Clinton\u2019s email server.”<\/p>\n
What he was doing was tweaking them. And what he\u2019s doing, “Hey, China, why don\u2019t you investigate Biden?” He\u2019s calling China out for being part of it! He\u2019s calling the Bidens out! He\u2019s calling the entire Washington establishment out with this stuff. What he\u2019s doing is getting Biden\u2019s corruption in mainstream media reporting. That\u2019s the real trick here. The media wouldn\u2019t be reporting this outside that original ABC story back in May.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re now trying to cover up for Biden, trying to act like what Biden and his kid did, no big deal, nothing to see here. Trump is trying to get that action that Biden took for his kid in mainstream media so people can hear it. So he makes the allegation, the press goes nuts over it, and they have to report it. So Stephanopoulos says: \u201cHe said a very direct statement.\u201d I don\u2019t believe you. \u201cHe wasn\u2019t smiling there, he wasn\u2019t laughing, it wasn\u2019t a joke.\u201d<\/p>\n

JORDAN: You don\u2019t think this president\u2019s been the toughest president on China? He put tariffs on China. You don\u2019t think this president wants to make sure China starts abiding by international trade norms, starts dealing with the theft of intellectual property? You don\u2019t think — I mean, okay, you can — you can think that, but I just don\u2019t think that\u2019s what the —<\/p>\n
STEPHANOPOULOS: I\u2019m asking if you think it\u2019s appropriate for the president to ask China to investigate.<\/p>\n
JORDAN: I think he\u2019s saying what\u2019s on the minds of so many Americans.<\/p>\n
STEPHANOPOULOS: That\u2019s not what I\u2019m asking.<\/p>\n
JORDAN: I think he\u2019s saying what\u2019s on the minds of so many Americans. It\u2019s how does the vice president\u2019s son get a billion dollars from a bank, a subsidiary of the Bank of China, how does he get that deal just a couple weeks after he flies on Air Force 2 to China? I think he\u2019s just pointing out the facts.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Exactly right. But you notice Stephanopoulos, \u201cDo you think it\u2019s appropriate? Do you think the president should be doing that?\u201d All of this is about creating an illusion that Trump is so corrupt and inept at the same time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
