CALLER WIFE: Hey, Rush.<\/p>\nRUSH: Here\u2019s Edward in Raleigh, North Carolina. Great to have you, sir. Glad you waited. Hello.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Greetings from Trucker University. That\u2019s a page from Zig Ziglar\u2019s Automobile University. You\u2019re an important part of my wife\u2019s and I curriculum. She wants to say hey.<\/p>\n
CALLER WIFE: Hey, Rush.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Hi!<\/p>\n
WIFE: (garbled cell) We\u2019re gonna… (chuckling) I\u2019m sorry. I\u2019m kind of a little bit (unintelligible). We love you, and we\u2019re always praying for you, and I\u2019m (unintelligible) and you\u2019re always (unintelligible) what I need to be —<\/p>\n
CALLER: Want to get to our point. Trump\u2019s 2016 campaign slogan is and should be “2020, Make America Great Again.” Do it again, Trump.<\/p>\n
RUSH: I think it is.<\/p>\n
WIFE: Do it again, Trump.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yeah. I\u2019m extremely disappointed that Governor Cooper will allow President Trump to consider moving the Republican convention out of North Carolina. You know, this reinforces my thought that the Democrat national media does not win at ratings.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, let me ask you a question. Why do you think the convention should stay in North Carolina? The guy won\u2019t open the state. The guy is therefore participating in actions that are not designed to make Donald Trump look good. Why do you think the convention should remain? ‘Cause Trump is openly making noises about moving it either to Texas or some other place.<\/p>\n
CALLER: It\u2019s millions of dollars in revenue that will come here to North Carolina —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Not if your governor doesn\u2019t open the state!<\/p>\n
CALLER: Well… Well…<\/p>\n
RUSH: Not if your governor doesn\u2019t allow it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
CALLER: Well, that\u2019s why we have an NBA team. That\u2019s why we have a national football team. It brings people here. And if he wants to shut out…<\/p>\n
WIFE: (interrupting)<\/p>\n
CALLER: And national hockey. So if he wants to, you know, put up a border… Say he wanted to close the border in North Carolina. Well, then, North Carolina residents such as myself are gonna miss out on the goodness of what comes from a national convention.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, look, I understand that. But I think Trump\u2019s reaction is that he doesn\u2019t see much cooperation from the governor there. The governor won\u2019t open the state or won\u2019t go full-fledged into it. (sigh) Now, I have to tell you, when this thing was announced for north Carol, I said, “What? It\u2019s gonna be in Charlotte. Charlotte, you need a telescope to find a Republican there! Charlotte?” (Snort!) I mean, it could be the southeastern capital of Democrat socialism. I said, “We\u2019re gonna put the convention…?”<\/p>\n
What was the point of this? I know there was a point somewhere, somehow about electoral votes and what have you and so forth. But the president is talking about moving it, and I don\u2019t know if he\u2019s serious or if he\u2019s just trying to light a fire under the governor there to get serious about fully opening the state.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: No, no. I meant Charlotte, North Carolina. It\u2019s Charlottesville, Virginia. But I was confusing the two. Charlotte is Charlotte. You got a Charlotte here, got a Charlottesville there. They\u2019re both a bunch of rabid, leftist places. But I was talking about Charlotte, North Carolina, which is… I don\u2019t know why you would put a convention there! I do not know why you\u2019d put a Republican convention there. Do the Democrats put their conventions in hotbeds of conservatism? They do not.<\/p>\n
So what the hell are we doing?<\/p>\n
Anyway, I don\u2019t care.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t care if it gets moved or not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
