We will also lose the Senate, and we may well lose the House. She would be very happy, very happy to face Donald Trump.&#8221;  Carly, you know we\u2019ve spoken very positively of you on this program many, many times.  You haven\u2019t been able to wipe the floor with Trump.  Why will Hillary be able to?  Is Hillary that much better than you?  You say Hillary\u2019s gonna wipe the floor with Trump?  Why haven\u2019t you?  If it\u2019s gonna be so easy for Hillary to wipe the floor, why can\u2019t you?  If it\u2019s that easy.  Why can\u2019t any of the others on the Republican side?

I\u2019m just asking legitimate political questions.  If you\u2019re gonna run out and say that Hillary Clinton is gonna mop the floor with Donald Trump, okay, well, then tell us how you\u2019re gonna beat Hillary.  But before you do that, show us how you\u2019re gonna beat Trump.  Does this not make sense?  Okay, the big fear is that Hillary Clinton, who is one of the biggest empty pantsuits &#8212; folks, this is another, you talk about a disconnect.  Hillary Clinton, are you kidding me?  The biggest empty pantsuit in American politics.  Talk about disconnected.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>Anyway, this magical woman is just gonna mop the floor with Donald Trump.  Fine and dandy.  Okay.  Well, then, how are you gonna beat her?  How are you gonna beat this formidable, almost unbeatable, brilliant, smartest woman in the world? If she is gonna mop the floor with Trump, don\u2019t you think you better show you can do the same thing and then tell us how you\u2019re gonna beat her?  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Jim, Winston-Salem, North Carolina.  Welcome.  You\u2019re next.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Rush, Merry Christmas.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Same to you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I agree with you about 97% of the time, including your comments recently about conventional wisdom, which is of course an oxymoron, and Hillary being an empty pantsuit.  But &#8212; and here\u2019s the big &#8220;but.&#8221; Although I do share your unbridled joy with Donald Trump raising issues that need to be raised and tweaking the left-stream media, the sad fact is Trump often sounds like a simplistic sixth grader.  And I just&#8230; You know, he\u2019s almost as insufferable and arrogant as Barack Obama.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  How did George W. Bush sound to you?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  George W.?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.  How did he sound to you?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Oh, erudite, you know, right on.  And Donald Trump makes great points, but when he goes to into this, &#8220;You\u2019re so bad and you\u2019re really stupid and she\u2019s an idiot,&#8221; rather than grabbing your attention with his comment and then explaining more detail&#8230; He never gets into detail.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Let me &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Tell me where I\u2019m wrong.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No, no.  No. Tell you where you\u2019re wrong? I\u2019m not&#8230; That\u2019s an opinion.  I can\u2019t tell you you\u2019re wrong.  That\u2019s what you think of the way he sounds.  But I do want to comment on it.  I have to take a break here.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, about the last caller, I asked him what he thought of the way George W. Bush spoke for a reason.  The last caller, he likes what Trump says now and then, he likes the way Trump\u2019s tweaked the left and tweaking the establishment left, but Trump sounds like a school yard, just average run-of-the-mill, oh, maybe not bully, but there\u2019s nothing erudite and uplifting and confidence inspiring about the way Trump talks, his voice. So I asked him about George W. Bush and he said, yeah, George W. Bush is erudite. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115014\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/TRUMPHill-Jeb-Kasich-TRUMP.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Folks, I have to tell you something, in case you\u2019ve forgotten.  The media, the American left and everybody who hated Bush thought that he was dumb because of the way he spoke.  They acted like he was dumb. They made fun of the way he talked. They called him a cowboy and so forth.  He was anything but erudite, even though he is as, if not more, educated than all of them.  But here is why I think it doesn\u2019t matter.  Even if people think that about Trump, and that\u2019s the first time I\u2019ve heard anybody say that.  I couldn\u2019t care less.  I don\u2019t want you people get the wrong idea here.  I\u2019m not here to defend anybody. If this guy thinks Trump sounds like a buffoon, fine and dandy. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s one thing here that\u2019s undeniable.  Again, over here, with everybody over on that side.  And I don\u2019t care Republicans, Democrats, commentators, media people, they all sound brilliant, don\u2019t they?  They all sound very, very intelligent and thoughtful, well spoken. They pause at just the right times to give the indication they\u2019re in deep thought about what\u2019s coming next, and they use several speech tricks to convey the idea that they\u2019re brilliant, such as &#8220;hmmm and eeeehhh&#8221;, in deep thought before they commit to their next statement and so forth.  They\u2019re the people screwing everything up!<\/p>\n<p>The people that seem the smartest are actually &#8212; you telling me that David Brooks, New York Times columnist, who actually said the crease in Obama\u2019s slacks was all I needed to see to tell me he\u2019s gonna be a great president.  The people who make this country work are not caught up in all of this surface appearance stuff.  They\u2019re fed up with the mess the so-called best and brightest are making of this country.  They are seriously fed up, and they are holding to account the people over there who everybody thinks are the most educated and the most well-spoken and so forth, they are the ones that are screwing it all up. <\/p>\n<p>So I don\u2019t think it matters to a lot of people the way Trump sounds; it\u2019s what Trump is saying and the attitude that he conveys when he says it that is attracting them.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Len in Grant Park, Illinois.  Your turn.  You\u2019re next.  Hello, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, hello there, Mr. Limbaugh.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Hey.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I am humbled to speak to the greatest freedom fighter on earth.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, I don\u2019t know about that, but I appreciate you calling, and I\u2019m glad our out there.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, I wanted to make a comment, you know, everybody talks about Trump, you know, why he\u2019s so popular and all this stuff.  And, you know, I remember back when Reagan got elected, it was the first Republican I\u2019ve ever voted for, and he was the right man at the right time.  And that\u2019s where Trump is.  He\u2019s the right man at the right time.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115050\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" alt=\"large\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/490467958_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  You know, it\u2019s interesting.  The establishment hated Reagan, the Republican establishment hated him, well everybody hated him but notably the Republican Party hated Reagan, they didn\u2019t like conservatives, still don\u2019t.  And they also said Reagan was a dunce. They said Reagan was an idiot. They said Reagan was sleeping through cabinet meetings and Reagan was a B movie actor and he was this or that.  It\u2019s standard operating procedure. The way the establishment insults their opponents is to try to tell everybody that they\u2019re dumb, they\u2019re slow, they\u2019re stupid, they\u2019re unsophisticated, they\u2019re dangerous, you can\u2019t trust them, their finger next to the nuclear launch button.  It\u2019s the same thing, no matter who the candidate is. It could be Newt Gingrich, it could be Sarah Palin, it could be Ronald Reagan, it could be Trump now, doesn\u2019t matter who it is, that\u2019s the way they go after and try to disqualify people.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, that\u2019s true, but if you look at the time when Jimmy Carter was in there and with Iran making all its threats on us and everything all the time, and everything he did to try to subdue them, you know, was just a joke, the guy was an idiot.  I mean, that\u2019s the way I felt about it, and I felt that the country just couldn\u2019t stand four more years of that.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, agreed, but Carter\u2019s greatest damage was on the economy. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Oh.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  He just wreaked havoc on the economy.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah, I was 23 years old and I couldn\u2019t keep a job \u2019cause as fast as I\u2019d go to work for somebody, they\u2019d close up.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah, you couldn\u2019t keep gasoline in your tank, either.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  No.  Stand in line for it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  But, yeah, I honestly believe that with Donald Trump, I don\u2019t think anybody\u2019s gonna beat him, \u2019cause he\u2019s the only one saying anything that makes sense.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, let me ask you a question about that since I have you and since you\u2019ve just made that statement.  So you think Trump can win the nomination?  You think Trump can beat Hillary?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Ha.  Yeah.  No question.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No question?  Because, I\u2019ll tell you, Republican Party is running around in apoplexy, and they\u2019re telling everybody, &#8220;Oh, my God, if Trump wins, we\u2019re finished.  Hillary\u2019s gonna mop the floor.  Oh, my God.  There\u2019s no way Trump.  The independents are gonna be running away from Trump.  Oh, my God.  We\u2019re dead.  Trump could set this party back 25 years if he gets the nomination.&#8221;  That\u2019s what the Republicans say.  &#8220;There\u2019s no way he can beat Hillary.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  If Trump wins, the Republican Party as we know it is done.  They\u2019ll either have to come in line with the people or they\u2019ll never get another vote.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  What if the Republican Party loses?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: What, this time?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah, I don\u2019t see it happening. As long as Trump\u2019s on the ticket.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, no. I\u2019m saying if Trump\u2019s not on the ticket and they put Romney up there as a stopgap.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That guy was ridiculous before. I mean, nobody wanted him.  How many times did he run?  Nobody wanted him.  He was just another liberal.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I\u2019m just saying if they do something like that, if the Republican Party gets a nominee they want and they lose, what does that mean for their future?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  They\u2019re done.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So they\u2019re done either way, that\u2019s what you\u2019re saying &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115049\" class=\"alignleft\" align=\"left\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/480430986_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  &#8212; Trump wins they\u2019re done, and if Trump loses, they\u2019re done?<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.  I don\u2019t see \u2019em recovering from this.  They\u2019ve got such a bad reputation now, you know, since this Obama thing, that nobody trusts \u2019em, believes \u2019em for anything.  What\u2019s the point?  There\u2019s no reason to vote for \u2019em.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.  Well, I don\u2019t know that it\u2019s that bad, but, I tell you what: There are a lot of people scratching their heads over why in seven years the Republican Party hasn\u2019t found a way to disagree with Obama.  That\u2019s their purpose.  They\u2019ve run for election, they\u2019ve campaigned on their promise to stop Obama, repeal Obamacare, all this stuff.  They don\u2019t do any of it.  How in the world after seven years can you not have an identity of opposing Obama and standing with a majority of the American people? <\/p>\n<p>Here, grab audio sound bite number five.  I didn\u2019t just make this up.  Charlie Rose last night on his show on PBS talking to Mark Halperin.  These people do talk to each other.  You know, it\u2019s amazing.  On all of their shows, they all appear on each other\u2019s shows.  I mean, you talk about talking to hear your head rattle?  That\u2019s all these people do.  They never have anybody on that they don\u2019t agree with or don\u2019t understand.  They\u2019re all just chatting with themselves, be it the roundtable on Meet the Press or you name it.  There\u2019s no outreach to anybody else who\u2019s not already in their crowd.  It\u2019s stunning to watch this. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, Charlie Rose with Mark Halperin last night.  Charlie Rose said, &#8220;Are you saying, Mark, that if the Republican Party unites against Donald Trump, that they can\u2019t stop him?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115018\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rosepanel.jpg\"\/><BR\/>HALPERIN:  The establishment now will not accept Trump as the nominee.  They will fight him to the end, including at the convention if they need to and I think they\u2019ll run someone else if he does become the nominee.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>ROSE:  Meaning somebody\u2019s in the field &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>HALPERIN:  No! Someone like Mitt Romney or Mitch Daniels, someone else to step forward to say, &#8220;We\u2019ve got a safe place to vote because we cannot be the party of Trump.&#8221; Romney-Ryan at the convention is the way the party would go and they\u2019d say, &#8220;America, you were wrong. We\u2019re giving you a second chance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, he doesn\u2019t just make this stuff up, folks.  All of these people talk to each other, and the Republican Party leaks what they want certain people to know. They go to&#8230; Politico is one of their favorite sources to leak to.  Halperin didn\u2019t just pull this out of thin air.  He just said that last night on Charlie Rose that if Trump is the nominee, the Republican Party will not accept it and will go back. They won\u2019t go to anybody currently in the field \u2019cause there isn\u2019t anybody that jazzes them in the field. <\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re gonna go back to Mitt Romney or maybe Mitch Daniels, and then they\u2019ll choose Ryan as the veep again and they\u2019re gonna go back to the American people and say, &#8220;Look, we gave you a chance to elect this brilliant team in 2012, and you blew it.  We\u2019re going to give you a second chance.&#8221;  This is&#8230; My point is if he\u2019s saying this, somebody somewhere in whatever circle he travels in has also postulated this.  And not the first time we\u2019ve heard the Republican Party thinking about reaching out to Romney.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115017\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hill-Pantsuit-Mitt-Rush-123.jpg\"\/><BR\/>It\u2019s not the first time we\u2019ve heard Romney thinking about running again. It\u2019s not the first time we\u2019ve heard anything.  And I guarantee you something else.  If Trump isn\u2019t the nominee but Ted Cruz is, they\u2019ll do the same thing.  They won\u2019t support a Ted Cruz nomination, either.  At the highest levels Republican Party, they\u2019re in a constant panic.  &#8216;Cause they\u2019re know even if they do succeed, if they were to succeed in taking Trump out, now they\u2019re looking at Cruz.  And that scares them even more.  Don\u2019t doubt me.  <\/line><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Carly Fiorina. This is in TheHill.com.
