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,
