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

RUSH: Here\u2019s Tim, Tulsa, Oklahoma. Great to have you with us. Hello, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Mega dittos, El Rushbo. Long-term listener, first-time caller.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you very much. Great to have you here.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, I saw Trump\u2019s shout out tweet yesterday. He was tooling around Southern California surveying his wealth in a shiny black Suburban and listening to your show. I\u2019m actually hoping that he\u2019s listening today. There was a Democrat that announced for president yesterday. I think his name is Lessig.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, yeah, this is some wacko professor at Harvard or something. Yeah, yeah. Lawrence Lessig or something.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, single-issue platform. He said he\u2019d reform campaign finance, the special interests and lobbyists access to power, then resign and let his VP run the country for the rest of his term.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: And as crazy as that may sound, if Trump would put that ahead of his platforms on immigration and trade and military and tax reform, it really is the main issue for both parties. He said that he\u2019s above it, but he hasn\u2019t said that he\u2019ll fix it. You know, say Trump wins twice, where we gonna find another self-funding billionaire to lead the country? You know, he could deflect almost every attack and gotcha question at the debate tonight by refocusing on this one issue and highlighting where all the attacks are actually coming from. You know, and why they want him gone. It\u2019d be a Herculean task. It would take someone with enormous chutzpah. Only Trump could pull it off.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, he does allude to this. In the last two speeches and maybe in the ones prior, but in the last two appearances, two rallies, he has made reference to the fact that he can\u2019t be bought and therefore can\u2019t be owned. And he\u2019s made reference to the fact that all of this money, this lobbyist and special interest PAC, whatever he calls it, is all aligned against him. Another thing he said was, it was in the same spoken paragraph. <\/p>\n

He was saying (paraphrasing), “You know, I come out here and I do an hour, 15 minutes, an hour, whatever, and every speech I do is different. And every one of those guys, they put it on the teleprompter. They have a stump speech. Everybody gives a stump speech. It\u2019s the same thing over and over again. You never know what you\u2019re gonna get with me.” And he related that to the fact that the donors who are putting money behind these people are riding \u2019em close to the vest to make sure they don\u2019t say anything too outrageous that might destroy their chances. He says, “I got nobody riding me. I have nobody controlling me.”<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, he\u2019s above it, but he hasn\u2019t said that he\u2019s gonna fix it. He hasn\u2019t come forward with a plan to take the big money —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, hang on. I\u2019ve got a break coming up. Hang on through the break here, if you will, Tim, \u2019cause I\u2019ve got it coming right here, and I want for you to define further what you\u2019re actually talking about. You went fast through it.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay. Back to Tim in Tulsa, Oklahoma. What you\u2019re talking about, just to make sure I understand, you\u2019re talking about the special interest money and the PAC money and the lobbyists and all that, the people who are funding all these candidates. That\u2019s what you want done away with. You\u2019re quoting Lawrence Lessig who\u2019s claims he has one agenda item. If he\u2019s elected president, he\u2019ll somehow outlaw all of that, reform the campaign finance system and then quit? And you think —<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think it\u2019s obvious the Beltway elites are screwing us over for the benefit of big donors, and you and I both know some of that control is from other nations and other governments. Look at the secret Pan Asian trade deal that just went through in the dark of night.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Look at the first debate, the donors sent the message out to take Trump out.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So there\u2019s no question.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Look at Obamacare. The hospitals, medical and insurance donors are getting a big, fat return on their longtime support on the Hill.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: And in the Capitol.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right. So how do you do this, though? I mean, look, there\u2019s a story in the Stack here, Jeff Immelt, this is about the Export-Import Bank, or Import-Export Bank. And he\u2019s threatening, if he doesn\u2019t get his money — and GE doesn\u2019t need any money. GE is profiting famously. Here it is. Right up your alley here, Tim. This is from Reuters. <\/line><\/p>\n

“GE to Move US Jobs Overseas in Fight Over Export Credits<\/a> — Flexing its muscles amid a bitter congressional fight over the US Export-Import Bank, General Electric Co (GE.N) on Tuesday revealed plans to shift up to 500 U.S. manufacturing jobs to Europe and China because it can no longer access EXIM financing.” Meaning it can\u2019t get corporate welfare. This is a big battle in the US Congress not long ago. And once again the Republican establishment was all-in with big money on this. And EXIM is not even needed anymore. These corporations have plenty of money on their own. They don\u2019t need free access to taxpayer money.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You can\u2019t just act like it\u2019s too big a problem to fix, though. It\u2019s just like illegal immigration. We\u2019re a nation of laws. You know, make it illegal to give large contributions to people that are on the Hill and in the Capitol and enforce it, you know, inspect. You have to start somewhere. I don\u2019t know what the answer is. I\u2019m sure it\u2019s complex. I mean, any time you have power and you have money you\u2019ve got a natural marriage, but there\u2019s gotta be a way to inspect. I mean, we can see Hillary Clinton\u2019s e-mails now and the FBI\u2019s gonna come up with all of her private e-mails and find out if she was selling access with Bill Clinton\u2019s speeches all across the world.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, come on, we already know. See, that\u2019s the thing about them, we already know she was doing that and nothing\u2019s gonna happen to her, nothing\u2019s gonna happen with this e-mail thing. It would have happened by now. She\u2019d a been indicted, if she was going to be, it would have happened.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I agree with you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: They\u2019ve got everything they need here. Now we\u2019re hearing, in addition to the fact her server wasn\u2019t wiped, which means some of these things can be recovered, that\u2019s not good news for her that the server wasn\u2019t wiped, but we\u2019re also hearing that some inspectors generals have looked at the this and they don\u2019t find anything really wrong with what Hillary\u2019s done, really nothing to see here. Then the next day we hear something entirely different, and it\u2019s hard to keep track. One thing we know, she\u2019s been selling access to herself as future president for years. That\u2019s what the Clinton Crime Family Foundation is all about.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Absolutely. <\/p>\n

RUSH: These people are not loved. I mean, they\u2019re not giving money to Hillary \u2019cause she beautiful. They\u2019re not giving money to Hillary \u2019cause they want to go to cocktail parties with her. It\u2019s not why this happens. So you\u2019re saying here come Trump —<\/p>\n

CALLER: Eighty percent of the congressmen, lead congressmen, they go straight in and they start doing lobbying.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You know, they lose the election but they still get millions of dollars to go spread the influence from all the big donors and probably governments around the world —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — to buy the votes of all the people that are still on the Hill.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And all of this is why ideas don\u2019t matter anymore, and yet the American people, the American voter thinks it\u2019s about ideas. They want it to be about ideas. They want the right ideas to triumph, bad ideas to lose. They want the competition to be about ideas and instead it isn\u2019t. Now, it\u2019s nothing new. Tim, I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll agree that money in politics is nothing new, but it seems to me that it\u2019s reached a level that I\u2019m not familiar with it being. Now they make no bones about who\u2019s running the show. It used to be that the big-money donors were known, they might have even had some respect, but the big-money donors were kept over there, they weren\u2019t talked about much, they did get the private access, but we didn\u2019t know about it. They didn\u2019t publicize they were having parties and confabs. And the parties at least went through the motions of making voters think it\u2019s about ideas. <\/p>\n

Now that\u2019s even out the window. Now you\u2019ll get McConnell and Boehner and they\u2019re making it clear that they are following the money and it doesn\u2019t matter what you think about it, that\u2019s what they\u2019re gonna continue to do. So it\u2019s gotten even more intense and more predominant. It\u2019s always been. Jesse Unruh said back in the sixties that money is the mother\u2019s milk of politics, but it seems you\u2019re right, that now it\u2019s become oppressive. So you have self-financing people like Trump, but you raise a good point. How many of those do we have that are gonna want to put it at risk in a political campaign.<\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER: You see the huge insurgent from the outsiders in this election, you know, the people that aren\u2019t in government, and I think that\u2019s why the corruption in Washington is out of the closet. You know, it\u2019s no longer the secret uncle in the closet that nobody\u2019s paying attention to. It\u2019s out in the open and everybody knows about it, and I think that\u2019s why the majority of the Republicans want somebody who\u2019s not involved.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Republican voters, yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: So you make that your primary issue, you double down on the thing that\u2019s already skyrocketed the insurgent candidates to plus 50%, you know, on the Republican side.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So just to close the loop, you think no matter what they throw at Trump tonight, if he somehow turned it all around and made this the reason he\u2019s doing what he\u2019s doing in addition to making America great again, he could just swat it away like a bunch of flies?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, and he\u2019s good at that, too. He\u2019s good at taking a question about something that he said and turning it into an attack on the person that he originally said it about. I mean, he\u2019s great at stop, drop and roll. I mean, the guy can pull it off for sure, but if he says, “I know why you asked me that question. You\u2019re trying to make me say something or do something that\u2019s gonna finally harm my enormous popularity, and the reason is because I\u2019m not controlled. You guys are controlled. You guys are controlled.” Look at the press. Look at the other people on the stage. “I\u2019m not controlled and I know they want me gone. All the big donors and everybody that\u2019s involved in the corruption and the entire system, they want me gone. So I know why you\u2019re asking the question. Now here\u2019s what I\u2019m gonna do.” Wouldn\u2019t that be perfect? Just turn it right back around on \u2019em.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, he\u2019s totally capable, I know that. You remind me of something that I said before the first debate back in August, on August 6th, that I thought would happen, and it didn\u2019t. Now I\u2019m thinking about it again and it might. Remember, you might remember my saying that I expected — let\u2019s go back to August 6th, what was happening? Trump was in full bombast mode back then. Everything he was, was the greatest. Everything he wasn\u2019t, was a loser. Everybody that was not with him was a loser. He was on that huge braggadocios, funny-as-hell role. <\/p>\n

And I fully expected Trump staying in character \u2019cause we knew what they were gonna do, try to take him out \u2019cause he\u2019s not serious candidate, looking for the slipup that they know he\u2019s gonna make that will disqualify him and make people want to get rid of him and all that. I expected him to, in his own way, mock the whole process as a setup and phony scenario. “What do you mean we got three minutes and 30 seconds? Who the hell can say anything in 30 seconds besides me? None of these people up here can tell you what they mean in 30 seconds. I can do it. I\u2019m better at it than anybody else.”<\/p>\n

I fully expected him to sort of make fun of the whole thing, which is what his candidacy up to that point was doing. And I still think that in one of these debates, depending on the frustration level, he might go that way. I don\u2019t think it would be in a sense of disrespecting, but maybe relating to the American people. “These aren\u2019t even debates,” he could say. “I\u2019m not debating anybody but you,” and he can look at the moderator. “You\u2019re asking me a bunch of stupid questions that nobody watching this thing cares about. And this is crazy. This isn\u2019t advancing anybody\u2019s ideas. This isn\u2019t advancing anything. What are we doing up here?” And I guarantee you if he did that the right way he\u2019d get the same kind of applause for his campaign and approach that he\u2019s getting now. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here are the details on the GE story: “Flexing its muscles amid a bitter congressional fight over the US Export-Import Bank, General Electric Co. on Tuesday revealed plans to shift up to 500 US manufacturing jobs to Europe and China because it can no longer access EXIM financing. The largest US industrial conglomerate said it will move production of some heavy duty gas turbines and 400 jobs to Belfort, France, in exchange for a credit line from France\u2019s COFACE export agency.<\/p>\n

“The deal will support GE bids for international power projects. US plants in Greenville, South Carolina; Schenectady, New York; and Bangor, Maine, will lose out on those jobs if GE wins the power bids, a GE spokeswoman said.” So I\u2019ll tell you how this is gonna end up. Whatever else happens, the Republicans are gonna end up being blamed for it, or at least they\u2019re thinking that they\u2019re gonna get blamed for it. And so to avoid being blamed for it, they will do everything they can to make sure GE, the Export-Import Bank…<\/line><\/p>\n

You know, Ted Cruz had a great speech on the floor of the Senate about this. This was a debate back in August. This was the one where he said that Mitch McConnell and the leadership had lied to his face about this. It\u2019s just another illustration of the powerful money people directing and sidling up to government in this new phenomenon of cronyism that\u2019s no longer hidden.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s just right out in the open, right in our faces. You know, Immelt is just tight with Obama. Obama put him on the jobs council or some such thing. They had a jobs summit and he put Immelt in charge of finding and creating domestic jobs. And I don\u2019t know if Immelt is still running that, but if he is, here he is threatening to take GE jobs overseas. Even if he isn\u2019t still running the Obama jobs commission, what good was that anyway? <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s Randall in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Randall, it\u2019s great that you called and great to have you on the program. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi. Rush, I wanted to explain to you why Donald Trump is doing so well with everybody.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Ok, yeah. I\u2019d like to hear \u2019cause I really don\u2019t have any idea.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, Donald Trump is saying what we are seeing. In other words, when Donald Trump says, “We\u2019re being overrun at the border,” we see that. When Donald Trump says, “Illegal immigrants are killing and raping women,” that is something that we see. When Donald Trump says, “We have idiots that are running our country,” if Mitch McConnell, Boehner, Pelosi, and Harry Reid, and Barack Obama aren\u2019t the antithesis (sic) of idiots, then I don\u2019t know what is. When Donald Trump says that a squirrel could have done a better job at delivering a better deal from the Iranians than Kerry, it\u2019s a thing that we see.<\/p>\n

These are all physical things that we see. It\u2019s not like… It\u2019s not like somebody saying that, you know, “These people are coming over here for love.” They\u2019re not coming over here for love! They\u2019re coming over here for our stuff, plain and simple. And Donald Trump is just plain putting it out there and saying, “No, these people are overrunning us. These people have killed and have raped and have hurt people. Drunk drivers have crashed into people.”<\/p>\n

RUSH: Wait a second. Wait just a minute. Don\u2019t you understand? The US is responsible for this. We conquered these people! We mistreated them! We took their country, we took their land, we took their buffalo. We took everything away from them! We put \u2019em under Spanish rule. Don\u2019t you think it\u2019s about time they got even? Don\u2019t you think it\u2019s about time the US was cut down to size? (This is the Democrat view if things, by the way.)<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s the Democrat view, but do you know what really needs to happen? We need to just take over Mexico. Since they all want to come over here, why don\u2019t we just take them over? I got, you know… I think it\u2019s New Mexico and Old Mexico. There\u2019d be Texas and Tex-Mex.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, that\u2019s not gonna happen out there, Randall.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s not gonna happen, but as far as we\u2019re concerned, these people are trying to invade us.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay. Here\u2019s his point. And, folks it\u2019s valid. This is something that I can use. I think he\u2019s got a great point when he says everything Trump is criticizing is not theoretical; it\u2019s real, because we know it. We see it. In other words, a lot of people will try to gain your support by warning you what is going to happen. And they\u2019ll try to persuade you that if you don\u2019t get up to speed real fast and understand what\u2019s happening, all kinds of things — A, B, C, D, and E — are gonna happen. <\/p>\n

Trump has come along and is simply acknowledging what is happening that everybody sees. It\u2019s not a question of whether or not you trust or believe Trump; you can\u2019t help it! He\u2019s simply uttering the truth. There\u2019s no question that what he\u2019s saying is true. <\/line>People have seen it. People are experiencing it. So that removes one of the huge barriers between the people and politicians, and that\u2019s trust. It\u2019s not even a question of trusting Trump. He\u2019s not lying to you. He\u2019s simply voicing what everybody sees that nobody else in Washington will voice. <\/line><\/p>\n

And in fact, when you do voice it, they try to tell you you\u2019re wrong.<\/p>\n

“You got it wrong! You\u2019re xenophobic, you\u2019re racist, you\u2019re nativist.”<\/p>\n

Somehow it\u2019s your problem when you point it out, and the problem is rooted in your racism. It\u2019s in your bigotry, or your xenophobia, or what have you. And you pull your hair out because it\u2019s none of that. You\u2019re just simple telling what you see. “Look at what\u2019s happening here, and you\u2019re not doing anything to stop it. And it ought not be happening. It\u2019s wrong. They don\u2019t and shouldn\u2019t have the right to come here and do what they\u2019re doing.”<\/p>\n

But people in Washington to whom you lodge these complaints say, “You don\u2019t understand. It\u2019s just a precious few number of people. The rest of these people, why, they\u2019re in the shadows, and we need to get them out! They\u2019re coming here as acts of love,” and then you start choking with frustration and anger. So it really boils down to there isn\u2019t any BS. But I still maintain that in addition to that, the fact that whatever has happened in Washington, there aren\u2019t any Trump fingerprints on it. <\/p>\n

This anti-Washington mentality is bigger than I have ever seen it in the total number of years I\u2019ve been hosting the program, and we\u2019re now into our 28th. Now, it\u2019s always there. There is always a segment of the population that is totally detached from Washington, distant, and wants no part of it and doesn\u2019t trust it. It\u2019s bigger than I\u2019ve ever seen it. They call it “populism” as a means of impugning it. Populism means there\u2019s no rationality to it.<\/p>\n

“This is just runaway emotions and we gotta stop this! We gotta get a check and handle on it. You people… We can\u2019t allow you populists to run things, \u2019cause you\u2019re not thinking.” But we are. You are. You don\u2019t have to think. You know what\u2019s happening. The fact i they — the elite, the Beltway, whatever — try to talk you out of what you know to be true and then insult you by telling you it\u2019s only your rotten attitudes that make you see and think that, means the divide is wider than I\u2019ve ever seen it. <\/p>\n

The thing is, again, people in Washington, they\u2019re not confused here. They\u2019re not disconnected. They know full well. They\u2019re just in denial. They don\u2019t care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
