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

RUSH: During the break at the top of the hour, I came across the latest piece by Victor Davis Hanson writing at National Review. It is a long piece. It prints out to six pages. That pretty much makes it bordering on impossible for me to share the whole thing. I mean, I could do it, I mean, I could read all six pages and I could have you transfixed, but it\u2019s still long. I haven\u2019t had a chance to highlight it, which I always do, pick pull quotes, excerpts, and so forth.<\/p>\n

Let me tell you what it\u2019s about. It\u2019s about Trump and Hillary and where principled conservatives find themselves, which is not a good place. Principled conservatives are having a real tough time with all of this. And principled conservatives are worried that the ultimate end of this is the elimination of conservatism as a — I don\u2019t want to say dominant, maybe even relevant force in American politics. In fact, there\u2019s a piece here by Josh Barro writing at Business Insider that deals with that very thing, the crisis in the Republican Party is even worse than it looks. I\u2019ll share that with you in a minute here.<\/p>\n

<\/a>But the VDH thing, I\u2019m gonna read this, I\u2019m gonna summarize it when I have time to do it. But his basic premise is that it\u2019s kind of strange that we\u2019re worried about Armageddon being brought on by Trump, when we\u2019re living the apocalypse of Obama and Clinton. Now, this is something I think Trump supporters have already figured out, and I think a lot of people instinctively have come across it, or had it reflected in their minds as they ponder all of this. It certainly spells it out for me. In fact, grab sound bite number five. I was gonna skip past this because I couldn\u2019t find any reason for it to relate to anything other than me being discussed in the media, but actually it now plays off of the VDH thing really well.<\/p>\n

You will remember this because it\u2019s by no means the first time I\u2019ve expressed it. Whenever I run across Republicans out there just bellyaching about Trump and losing their minds over Trump, like last Friday when I summarized for you the genuine fatalistic “it\u2019s overism” out there in so many different sectors of American conservatism. I read excerpts of some of these pieces to illustrate, and I asked, “Where was all this during Obama? Where\u2019s all this rage? Where\u2019s all this anger at stuff that actually is happening and has been happening for seven and a half years?”<\/p>\n

We haven\u2019t had any anger of the sort from the Republican establishment that\u2019s being directed at Trump. This is not a defense of Trump, by the way. I\u2019m not saying any of this from a pro-Trump position here. I\u2019m simply observing. And it has amazed me. To this day, folks, to be bluntly honest with you, I remain really surprised I had nobody joining sides with me on January 16th of 2009 when I said, “I hope he fails.” When I was telling the story about the Wall Street Journal wanting a 400 word op-ed from a bunch of people on their hopes and expectations of Obama\u2019s presidency.<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t need all that, I can do it in four words: I hope he fails.”<\/p>\n

And I got nobody joining me. I got some on my side attempting to explain it, but they wouldn\u2019t join me. And I had a cacophony of people saying, “That\u2019s outrageous. You don\u2019t say that. We should all unify behind our president. We should all come together. Nobody wants our president to fail, because nobody wants our country to fail.”<\/p>\n

I said, “You\u2019re missing the point. I want Obama to fail because I want America to survive. I want Obama to fail because I don\u2019t want progressivism and liberalism to win.” What\u2019s so hard about this? I got no joiners. As I say, I had some who defended me on it, but there wasn\u2019t an echo, and there wasn\u2019t a chorus. And I, to this day, remain surprised because I thought that it was a very principled, conservative position to have, to hope liberalism fails. I mean, to me, that\u2019s what this is all about. Meaning this program.<\/p>\n

<\/a>What this program\u2019s been all about is attempting to educate, inform people of the pitfalls and the dangers of liberalism, progressivism, socialism, the left, or what have you. And we knew enough about Obama weeks before he was inaugurated and know exactly what was going to happen with his administration because he had told us. For example, he told us he was going to shut down the coal industry by making it impossibly expensive to stay in it. He told us that he was going to slither his way to single payer health care. He told us that he was going to do what he could to transform the very identity and makeup of this country, and I said, “Why isn\u2019t there any not just outrage, why aren\u2019t people frightened by this?”<\/p>\n

I was. I was scared to death of what President Obama intended to do, and it wasn\u2019t just because I know who liberals are and what they\u2019re gonna do; he had said so, in numerous interviews going all the way back to the early 2000s, not to mention the things he had said in the campaign. Not to mention the Jeremiah Wrights and the Bill Ayers and the people that were his friends. It was all there, every bit of it was foretold. So, to me, it was only natural to say, “I hope he fails.” So, likewise, I have been amazed throughout these entire seven and a half years that there\u2019s been all kinds of outrage that members of the Republican Party express for other Republicans or conservatives, but I haven\u2019t heard anything in any kind of proportion whatsoever aimed at Obama. And now Hillary.<\/p>\n

Even during the IRS scandal, even during Obamacare, from the establishment. Sure, there was a conservative media that was all over this stuff, but from the standpoint of anybody else, where was the outrage? And this outrage at Trump, to me, has always been out of proportion. This fear, this shouting of the dangers Trump represents. What the hell do you think we\u2019re living through is?<\/p>\n

Anyway, that\u2019s the point of Victor Davis Hanson\u2019s long piece here at National Review. We\u2019re worried about Armageddon on the Trump horizon while we\u2019re living amid the apocalypse of Obama and Clinton. It\u2019s a brilliant piece. And you know why you\u2019ll say it\u2019s brilliant? It\u2019s because it\u2019s so obvious. It\u2019s once again somebody cutting through all the noise and getting to the meat and potatoes of what\u2019s happened.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Victor Davis Hanson. Let me briefly summarize this for you. This is the first pass, so we\u2019ll have more detail later. At first glance, I\u2019m telling you, the thing appeared brilliant to me. I haven\u2019t had a chance to really read and study this as I do most things. But here\u2019s a basic summary. And his point is that, you know, we\u2019re worried about Armageddon with Trump because Trump\u2019s clueless and Trump doesn\u2019t know anything, and Trump\u2019s a neophyte. We\u2019re worried about Armageddon, when we\u2019re living the apocalypse right now with Obama and Hillary, who don\u2019t know anything, either!<\/p>\n

Everything they do is wrong, and dangerous.<\/p>\n

So what VDH is saying here is that Trump\u2019s cluelessness — and he\u2019s acknowledging that Trump is clueless on some things. I will get into detail of specifically what. But, you know, all these flip-flops on the minimum wage and tax increases. Tax increases on the rich or not on the rich, that Trump\u2019s just rolling the dice as he goes. Trump\u2019s cluelessness about the nuclear triad. That\u2019s from a debate. He got a question from Hugh Hewitt about the nuclear triad, and Trump didn\u2019t know what it was.<\/p>\n

You could tell he didn\u2019t know what it was, and Hugh Hewitt can tell he didn\u2019t know what it was, Hugh Hewitt kind of let him off easy, respecting the fact that a guy was running for president. He didn\u2019t expose him \u2019cause… I\u2019m sure Hugh thought that he had exposed him, but he didn\u2019t know what the nuclear triad was. He was being asked to comment on it, and to anybody who knows what the triad is, it was — I don\u2019t know — embarrassing or disquieting or a little concerning. Do you know what the nuclear triad is? (interruption) You do? (interruption) Yes, you do. (interruption) What do you mean, you don\u2019t know what the nuclear triad is?<\/p>\n

The nuclear triad refers to the three different ways you can launch the SOBs. You can launch \u2019em from the Trident submarines under the ocean. You can launch \u2019em from ground based silos, and you can launch \u2019em from airborne aircraft. The triad, three different ways of delivering nukes. Trump didn\u2019t know.<\/p>\n


\nSo Victor Davis Hanson says: “Trump\u2019s cluelessness about the nuclear triad is a lowbrow version of Barack Obama\u2019s ignorance, whether seeking to Hispanicize the Falklands into the Maldives.” The Falklands are referred to by Argentines as the Maldives, not as Obama said the Maldives, “or mispronouncing ‘corpsman,\u2019 or riffing about Austrian-speaking Austrians,” or the 57 states. I mean, his point is that all of these things that you are worried that Trump doesn\u2019t know, Obama is it in spades.<\/p>\n

Obama is just as clueless about a lot of things, happily and proudly so. So all these people getting upset that Trump didn\u2019t know about the nuclear triad, how about Obama not knowing how to pronounce “corpsmen” or thinking there are 57 states “or riffing about those Austrian-speaking Austrians; or perhaps of Hillary Clinton\u2019s flat-out lie about the causes of Benghazi, hours after she had learned the truth.<\/p>\n

“It is easy to be appalled by crude ignorance, but in some ways it is more appalling to hear ignorance layered and veneered with liberal pieties and snobbery. The choice in 2016 is not just between Trump, the supposed foreign-policy dunce, and an untruthful former secretary of state, but is also a matter of how you prefer your obtuseness — raw or cooked? Who has done the greater damage to the nation: would-be novelist and Obama insider Ben Rhodes, who boasted about out-conning the ‘Blob\u2019 D.C. establishment, or bare-knuckles Trumpster Corey Lewandowski?”<\/p>\n

Now, Hanson\u2019s point is, Lewandowski has this dustup with a reporterette, and everybody goes ape and wants to put the guy in jail, wants charges, wants a criminal trial, wants the guy fired, wants the guy strung up. They want Trump disqualified for having such a thug. Meanwhile, we learn that we\u2019ve got a guy lying to the American media but who we are negotiating a nuclear deal with with Iran. Speaking of which we\u2019ve got a guy, Lewandowski, supposedly should be prosecuted, put in jail for grabbing a reporter by the arm.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, we just got an administration here who\u2019s seen to it that the Iranians are gonna have a nuclear bomb. So Hanson, where is the sense of proportion? You think Trump\u2019s an idiot, you think he\u2019s got thugs working for him and it\u2019s gonna be bad? What about what we have had to endure the last seven years and where has been the proportionate outrage? Exactly my point.<\/p>\n

And then he points out here in his piece that over the next six months Trump could, not necessarily will, but could reinvent himself into something more responsible, could promise solid conservative appointments, like Cruz to the Supreme Court, John Bolton to state, Larry Arnn of Hillsdale as education sec, things like this are things that Republicans ought to be working with Trump on to try to make happen.<\/p>\n

And even if we think if Trump does it, that it\u2019s a naked ploy to get our votes, we still have to ask, isn\u2019t a naked ploy from Trump better than Hillary Clinton? See, Victor Davis Hanson\u2019s coming from the exact place I am: Hillary Clinton, you can\u2019t do worse. You\u2019re not even on the same thing field. This lesser of two evils thing doesn\u2019t even apply, because nobody gets close to the depths of incompetence and depravity and danger posed by another four years of the same crap that we\u2019ve had the last seven and a half.<\/p>\n


\nBREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

I had a little bit more time here to study the Victor Davis Hanson piece that I admittedly lauded prior to having read all of it. It started out and it had some brilliant premises. Here\u2019s the nut of it.<\/p>\n

The nut of it is that we\u2019re already in dire straits and we\u2019ve been in dire straits for an entire year, and all this talk about what dire straits are yet to come kind of misses the point. There\u2019s a sense of proportion here that\u2019s missing in all this panic and fatalism over Trump. Where is it with what is being done to us right now and for the last 7-1\/2 years? But his point is, we know what we\u2019re gonna get with Hillary and there\u2019s nothing redeeming about it and there\u2019s no way it\u2019s gonna change. There\u2019s literally no way who she is is going to change.<\/p>\n

We can make book on what we\u2019re gonna get if she wins the election. His point is with Trump, there\u2019s still six months or some months, a few months to go here before the election, and he mentions that there are opportunities here for those who want to try to take Trump in different directions that he might instinctively go or what have you. Look, he\u2019s trying to be positive. I appreciate that. I don\u2019t think being positive is necessarily absent reality. A lot of people do, but I don\u2019t. I mean, there\u2019s some lost causes, otherwise we wouldn\u2019t have St. Jude.<\/p>\n

But still, I also think that one of the things Mr. Hanson is attempting to do with his piece here is to talk some people off the ledge and say: Back off for a minute here. We\u2019ve got a little time here before… I mean, you\u2019re writing about all this as though everything is etched in stone, nothing\u2019s gonna change, it\u2019s only gonna get worse, and it doesn\u2019t necessarily have to be the case. And as I say, some are gonna say that that\u2019s unrealistic, that that\u2019s phony optimism, and it has no place because we\u2019ve gotta be brutally honest with ourselves about who Trump is and what we face.<\/p>\n

And his point is, “No, not yet. It\u2019s not over. There\u2019s still lots of time here left.” I think it\u2019s admirable, trying to talk people off of a ledge, if you want to put it that way. But being fatalistic, nobody knows what\u2019s gonna happen in this election today. The idea that we\u2019re gonna lose and lose big — and a lot of people think so, and it\u2019s not totally fatalism. I mean, they\u2019re looking at polling data, and they\u2019re looking at other data, which suggests that Trump\u2019s wildly unpopular with a bunch of different groups of people, wildly unpopular among some Republicans.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve got this push for the third party out there among establishment types. And if they succeed, then all the rest of it\u2019s academic. So, I mean, there\u2019s some genuine challenges out there. But I would side with Mr. Hanson here, at least on his intentions and his motivations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
