Trump Hijacks the Democrat Convention
RushLimbaugh.com ^ | 7/27/2016 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on 07/27/2016 11:01:14 AM PDT by simpson96

RUSH: I really don't believe that I have ever seen what I just saw. I've been thinking. I've been trying to dig deep into the dark crevices of my memory, and I don't think I've ever seen what I just saw. Donald Trump just hijacked the Democrat convention after the biggest night of that convention so far. Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, just concluded, right in time for this program to begin. (They got the memo.)

He just concluded a freewheeling, no-holds-barred, no-controls-on-the-media, "Whatever you want to ask me, ask me," press conference the day after the supposedly biggest event yet in the Democrat National Convention. He just totally hijacked it, and he was brilliant. He was on his game. This was the Trump from last fall. He was confident, he was hilarious, he was taking no BS from any in the media. He was challenging Hillary to do the same thing and calling her out, saying she hasn't done a press conference in over a year.

And she can't do what Trump did today. Hillary Clinton intellectually, personality-wise, is not capable. She's not capable of doing what Donald Trump did today. I have never seen a Republican presidential nominee even get involved in the Democrat convention. My experience is that the playbook in the professional, insider world of politics is that when one party is having its convention, the other party goes silent.

They don't run any ads, they don't do any press conferences, they don't do any appearances -- or very few. It's a courtesy. It's a courtesy and tradition, I guess,

Yup. Gotta love it. Hillary has blown millions and Trump has barely spent a dime and he is ahead of her. Now he is stealing her thunder on her convention week.

Hillary may be taking someone to Ft Macy Park before all this is through.

The Democrat “courtesy” is to send its interns to the GOP convention to act as protesters outside the arena, presumably infiltrating when possible as well.

All the ‘rules’ are broken!
The playbooks are obsolete!
The ‘conventional wisdom’ is foolishness!
The pundits are perplexed!
Their end is nigh!.....................

Money quote from Rush: The first thing I'm gonna be talking about is Trump and this press conference and not Bill Clinton, not because of partisan preference, just because the news is the news.

Trump does it and Rush gets it.

Dennis Prager just pointed out that Donald Trump has accomplished something that no recent GOP nominee has even come close to doing.

Trump has caused the (socialist) Democrats to publicly acknowledge that America is a great country! ... during their convention, no less!

That is exactly what they did do and the “rent a protest” creeps were in a high snit because the locals didn’t show up.

Also liked:

The Limbaugh Theorem is in play, and that's what Trump called 'em on. He said (paraphrased exchange), "The student loan program is a pass-through, and the students are the conduits." "What do you mean, Mr. Trump! What do you mean?" "Well," he said, "look. Do you see tuition coming down? No. You see tuition increasing. Tuition is getting more expensive. And you can't go to college without getting a lot of money in loans. Who in charge of the loan program? The government.

"So the government is sending money to where? The colleges." He says, "It's a secret program to get money to the colleges, government money to the universities and to use the students as the conduits via the student loan program." He's exactly right, and that's why tuitions don't come down is because liberals own the universities. The people that work there need to be paid and paid handsomely. It's like the Democrat Party's arrangement with labor unions is a money-laundering operation of sorts.

Why is the mainstream surprised about Trump’s Russia comment.
They already accused him of being in bed with Russia

So Rush, can you imagine your bubbleboy or that idiot Cruz doing anything remotely this clever?
