Welcome, sir. I\u2019m glad you called. You\u2019re up first today.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hey. Hey, Rush, how you doing?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Just fine, sir, thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Awesome. You\u2019ve been eating your veggies, right? Anyway &#8212; ha-ha &#8212; are you still there?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah. I\u2019m here. I\u2019m doing other things.

Awesome. Yeah. I was calling \u2019cause I\u2019m planning on voting for Biden in this next upcoming election. My coworkers are Trump supporters. They say that I should be voting for Trump. Anyway, they said I should give you a call so you can convince me otherwise. Convince me.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Did you vote for Trump in 2016?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I did not, no.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You did not. So you\u2019re not actually a Trump supporter abandoning him. Did you vote for Hillary in 2016?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I did, yes, sir.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So is it safe to say you\u2019re a Democrat? No wrong answer. Don\u2019t misunderstand the tone of my voice. I\u2019m just trying to learn a little more about you before I give you my advice.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I see. I would not say that not necessarily. I actually am registered Republican. You know, I was raised Republican, stuff like that, but I just sort of been changing, I guess, over the last several years.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. So why do you want to vote for Biden? And, actually, are you voting for Biden or are you fed up with Trump, just voting against Trump?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah, see, it\u2019s more like that. It\u2019s more like I\u2019m not a big fan of Trump\u2019s personality, of his demeanor, the way he talks to people, that kind of thing, and, mostly that, but more like I\u2019m voting against Trump, yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right. Well, we can\u2019t actually, then, put you in the lost column since you didn\u2019t vote for Trump in 2016. You haven\u2019t ever voted for him.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes, sir.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here\u2019s what I would say. How old are you? Do you mind telling me that?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-348557\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-051320-Biden-goofy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-051320-Biden-goofy.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-051320-Biden-goofy-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-051320-Biden-goofy-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>CALLER: I\u2019m 27.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You\u2019re 27. Okay. So you\u2019re a Millennial. Do you have &#8212; and, again, don\u2019t misunderstand the tone of these questions. I\u2019m not asking anything in an accusatory way, okay? I\u2019m just generally trying to &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Okay. Sure.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; learn things. Do you have any desire that the United States of America remain the country that it was founded to be? Do you appreciate the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the individual liberties and freedom enshrined in the Constitution, that the Constitution limits what government can do in terms of infringing individual liberty and freedom? Do you hope that that America goes on and on and on and survives?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m gonna go with, yes, sir.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. Well, that\u2019s good, because I\u2019m gonna tell you honestly, and you probably are gonna find it hard to believe because it\u2019s gonna sound extreme to you, but if the Democrat Party as it\u2019s currently constituted wins the election, it isn\u2019t Biden. Somebody besides Biden\u2019s actually gonna be president. Biden\u2019s just a placeholder. He\u2019s got some mental deficiencies due to age that &#8212; he\u2019s a front man for we don\u2019t know who, really.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh, really?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: But if they win, you can take a look at the rioting in the streets and the defunding of police and the attempt to take guns out of the hands of law-abiding people, and that\u2019s gonna be the country you will have empowered. The Democrat Party today has been taken over by Marxists and radical leftists who want to do away with the whole concept of individual liberty and freedom.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re not interested in debating you about it. They don\u2019t care what you think or anybody else that disagrees with them. They\u2019re gonna force their way, even though they are a minority, they\u2019re gonna force their ways on everybody using the intimidation you see. And the Democrats are gonna help this happen by defunding police departments. Preserving the American way of life is what this election\u2019s all about. If the Democrats win, that\u2019s finished.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: So you mentioned that you think Biden\u2019s mental health is deteriorating. Do you think that candidates should be required to take some sort of like mental test or something?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No. See, this is why you have a functioning press. If we had a genuine journalism oriented media, the American people would know this about Biden. But because the media is the Democrat Party and the media today, the national media &#8212; the Washington press corps particularly &#8212; is devoted to advancing the Democrat Party agenda. The people that only watch ABC, CBS, NBC, blah, blah, have no idea of Biden\u2019s mental deficiencies.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2020\/07\/16\/trumps-list-of-42-disastrous-things-joe-biden-would-do-as-president\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-356550\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-BREITBART-TEARAWAY-071620.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-BREITBART-TEARAWAY-071620.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-BREITBART-TEARAWAY-071620-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-BREITBART-TEARAWAY-071620-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>They\u2019re not reported on; they\u2019re not discussed; examples of them are not aired. So whatever percentage of people that only get their news from the networks, the New York Times, Washington Post, don\u2019t even know. Normally a functioning media would be reporting the truth about both candidates. But in this case, they\u2019re devoted to one thing: destroying Donald Trump. And it sounds like in your mind it\u2019s working on you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (laughing) You might be right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Did you support Bernie, by the way? In the primaries were you a Bernie Sanders guy, by any chance?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m not against him. I would say for me it didn\u2019t matter. More like, you know, my mind\u2019s just so blue, that kind of thing. It wasn\u2019t like Bernie or Biden, you know, either one I would consider suitable.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Daniel, you\u2019re 27 years old.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And that\u2019s relatively young. And there\u2019s nothing wrong with that. It just means that you haven\u2019t lived long enough to have had time enough to absorb a whole lot of different experiences and acquire a whole lot of knowledge. And again, it\u2019s just a function of age. But I have no reason to lie to you. It does me no good. If I lie, you find out I\u2019ve lied, it just discredits me.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m just telling you that if the Democrat Party as it\u2019s currently constituted, as it\u2019s currently campaigning, if it wins, you can kiss good-bye what you think and what you like about the United States. And I\u2019m not exaggerating a bit here. That\u2019s what this election is all about, preserving the American way of life.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-356688\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-071620-trump-Law-Enforcement-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-071620-trump-Law-Enforcement-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-071620-trump-Law-Enforcement-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/APP-071620-trump-Law-Enforcement-2-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>It\u2019s not just the Democrats or Republicans and their four-year campaign battles and, you know, Democrats win some and the Republicans win some and they trade power. That\u2019s not what this is. There\u2019s a genuine fear if the Democrats win in November, that it will be the last time, that the Republicans will never, ever win again for a host of reasons. Which would be horrible for the country and horrible for everybody.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t take my word for it. Actually take some time to look into &#8212; you want to vote for Biden, forget him; take a look at what he stands for, what the agenda he\u2019s pushing is. It\u2019s the most radical left agenda that we\u2019ve had. Educate yourself on this. Don\u2019t take my word for it. You got plenty of time to do it. You got \u2019til November 3rd to do this. But don\u2019t do this on the basis of personalities. Do not vote against Trump \u2019cause you don\u2019t like the way he talks or tweets. It\u2019s about so much more than that. And you owe it to yourself to learn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CALLER: I&#039;m planning on voting for Biden in this next upcoming election.
