BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Donald Trump's in Fresno, California. He is doing an event as we speak, and he's on another one of his rolls. You know, Trump is a circumstantial, situational guy. He is not an ideologue. He's not. You know, he's out there making a speech today, and his ideology has nothing to do with what he's talking about. He's reacting to circumstances that happened today -- the newsfeed, if you will. He's responding to what's in the news today, and he's talking about it. He's reacting to somebody.
'Cause somebody said that he's actually close with the guy that runs North Korea. So he's blowing that up. And then somebody accused him, he said, of being close to Putin. And he said, "Well, I can't really be mad at Putin. Putin said I'm a genius and am gonna lead the Republican Party. I mean, that's off to good start, right? Wouldn't we be better getting along with Russia than not get along with 'em? Hell, at least he's a strong leader! We don't have a strong leader. Hell, we don't have a leader, right? We don't have a leader.
"We don't have a leader, period, right?" The crowd's going nuts. And it's pure situational, pure circumstantial. That's why nobody can pin the guy down. That's why nobody knows what he's gonna do next 'cause he doesn't know. He's totally reacting to what's out there. Something I can relate to. Well, look, I'm gonna stop with the comparisons.
I'm gonna go to the audio sound bites here. This is Trump. Gotta hear this. Yesterday afternoon, Bismarck, North Dakota, Trump had a press conference. He had his rally, and during the Q&A a reporter said, "Elizabeth Warren, she seems to have made it her job..." And Trump interrupted the reporter.
TRUMP: Who, Pocahontas?
REPORTERS: (laughing)
TRUMP Pocaho...? Well, she's --
REPORTER #1: Is that offensive?
TRUMP: Look, look, she is... Is it offensive? You tell me.
NICOLE ROBERTSON: Very offensiiiiive!
TRUMP: Oh. Oh.
NICOLE ROBERTSON: Sorry.
TRUMP: Oh, I'm sorry about that.
NICOLE ROBERTSON: Yessss!
TRUMP: Pocahontas? Is that what you said? Elizabeth Warren?
RUSH: The reporter was all offended, see? Trump said, "Who, Pocahontas? Well, no, she's..." And it was a female reporter. She said, "Is that offensive?" And Trump said, "Look, she's..." "Is it offensive? She's the one..." The reporter said that's "very offensive," to call her Pocahontas. And Trump said, "You tell me. Sorry. Really? Well, I'm sorry." The reporter said, "Yes. It's very offensive." And Trump said, "I'm sorry about that. Pocahontas, is that what you said? Elizabeth Warren? High cheekbones"?
So the reporters don't know what to do with this. (interruption) The reporter was Native Amer...? The reporter says... Well, these reporters are used to being able to silence candidates by saying, "It's offensive! How dare you, Mr. Trump?" and Trump just keeps firing right back at 'em. And then he said, "Look, about Pocahontas. See, Elizabeth Warren is a fraud, folks. Elizabeth Warren is as white as any white person has ever been white. She is so white that five seconds in the sun and she turns red, okay?
"She said when she was trying to get hired at Harvard that she has Indian blood because she needed to be part minority. Being a woman wasn't enough. She had to be part minority. She had to use affirmative action to get hired. So she said there was Indian blood way, way back in her family tree, and the evidence was her high cheekbones." She said all that. It's not Trump's fault that he heard it and calls her on it. It's not Trump's fault that everybody else thinks it but nobody else will say it. This is how the left gets away with all this.
They lie. They come up with these phony things about themselves and about their supporters, and they get away with it because everybody on our side's afraid to bring it up because she's a woman. "That could be sexism! It could be racism," whatever. The Republicans have been so cowed into silence and not being critical. And Trump just makes fun of 'em, mocks 'em, and fires it right back at 'em. And this is one of the... Well, this is what he continued saying in that same press conference.
TRUMP: She's a senator that's highly overrated. She said she was a Native American. She said she was Native American but she wasn't able to document it. She said, "Well, I have high cheekbones! You see, I have high cheekbones, so I'm a Native American," and she then... I don't know if you'd call it a fraud or not. But she was able to get into various schools because of the fact she applied as a Native American and was probably able to get other things. I think she's as Native American as I am, okay? That, I will tell you. But she's a woman that's been very ineffective other than she's got a big mouth.
RUSH: Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho. "She's been ineffective other than she's got a big mouth."
END TRANSCRIPT
Trump, I hope someone in your campaign is reading FR.
When referring to Warren, call her Lieawatha.
Fauxohantas works too, but would require someone to spell it correctly to make the point.
yaaaaawn.
Rush rounded up Trump supporters as cultist.
He called them (us) Trumpists.
Then claims the big MSM mistake was to catagorize Trump supporters as cultists.
FURL
Where is your sacred honor? New commercials during monolog time - such utter distain for his listeners.
I’d rather have Johnny Bench in the Baseball Hall of Fame than Rush “sit on his ass don’t spend a dime to back his convitictions” Limbaugh in the broadcasting hall of fame.
Choke on your golden mic dick.
I have read many people say that Rush is boosting Crus.
I have read many claim that he is boosting Trump.
I have read many claim that he was this or that.
There was a caller on the show today that said he was clearly a Trump kingmaker.
I couldn’t agree with you more.
There is not a politician in DC that would say things like that about her. That’s why we need Trump. Go Trump Go!
Rush has always said that his job isn’t to win elections, but to do the best radio show that he can.
Faux-ca-hontas.
Yep. Now we see Rush trying to jump in front of the parade so he can pretend he’s leading it.
“distain”
Disdain
Dude. Stop it. Back away from the bong. He called Trump fans Trumpists, he called Cruz fans Cruzers.
Can you just for Godsake let it go?
Rush is all about Rush. He could care less what happens to America so long as he gets paid.
Anyone looking to Rush for guidance is gazing in the wrong direction. He’s an entertainer, not a patriot.
I am done with Limbaugh. Done
And that is why people are so enthusiastic about Trump. He is not afraid of political correctness! He is showing the backbone we have been craving to see!
Go, Trump! Soon to be President Trump!
He is both an entertainer and a patriot. Being both was unacceptable until he showed how it could be done.
His show has always been a mixture of entertainment, news analysis, and his opinions. I do not know why you would expect different.
“Now we see Rush trying to jump in front of the parade so he can pretend he’s leading it.”
Gotta admire the guy’s chutzpah.
He proudly tooted the horn of the good ship Cruz until it sank beneath the waves, then climbed aboard the USS Trump like he was a paying passenger.
” Now we see Rush trying to jump in front of the parade so he can pretend he’s leading it.”
He’s tried that trick before. After more than a decade of absolute silence on illegal immigration he pretended to be a leader against it once the grassroots pressure against Dubya’s amnesty was overwhelming.
I am the same age as Rush and have been in radio for as long as he has. Rush himself stated years ago that he was an entertainer and he has also said many times, “Show prep is everything.” He is just following the current trends to be entertaining.
Finally! Someone is doing what this former liberal(me) has been telling conservatives, ANYONE, to do to the Left. Just give it right back to them! They have traded so long on conservatives being ‘’nice’’ when they(the Left) are the fine young cannibals. They’re nothing but ice in a microwave when you give it them back.
Rush who?
