RUSH: What the heck is this? Im watching fake news this is CNN Trump moments ago the White House grounds meeting with executives from Harley-Davidson, the motorcycle people. Now, how many of you had heard that Harley-Davidson had pulled out of a meeting with Trump because they were afraid of backlash from customers and protesters and anarchists and whatever? I distinctly remember. I remember when I read it I got kind of mad at Harley-Davidson. Turns out it was fake news! Now, maybe Trump was gonna visit their plant. Maybe thats what it was.
Maybe Trump was gonna go there and they changed it and brought Harley-Davidson to Washington. But still, the news was that Harley-Davidson had pulled out, didnt want any part of the meeting. And theres the meeting! Im watching the videotape of the meeting take place, which is just moments ago.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Yeah, thats what it was. Harley-Davidson, they just moved the meeting from the Harley-Davidson factory in Wisconsin to the White House. The story was all over the media yesterday that Harley-Davidson wanted no part of Trump. They were gonna have a meeting with Trump at their plant, their factory, at their whatever, in Wisconsin. And then they started getting threatening tweets and threatening emails. And the story was that Harley-Davidson said, We dont like Trump that much, we dont want to have a meeting at all, and they cancel it.
So the news is out, Harley-Davidson, and they were celebrated, by the way Harley-Davidson cancels meeting with Trump over threat of protests. And then today theres Harley-Davidson at the White House. They just moved the meeting to the White House, which is pretty cool for the Harley-Davidson people. Theyre outside on the grounds, a couple bikes there that they were demoing for Trump, and it all went well.
But the thrust of the story, fake news again, Harley-Davidson wanted nothing to do with Trump, and they were afraid that if the meeting was held that people would protest, and Harley-Davidson didnt want any part of that. Not true. They were happy to travel to Washington for the meeting, and theres videotape of it. If theyre afraid of protests, I mean, theyre gonna happen regardless.
...heavy metal thunder...looking for adventure and whatever comes our way...
H-D didn’t want the protests on cnn viewed around the world.
Harley people I know are more apt to be a loyal American and Trump likers as compared to the rice burning crotch rocket types.
If I’m not mistaken, bikers were in DC in force for the inauguration in support of Trump.
So yes, CNN is all about fake news. I predict the Trump presidency will outlast CNN.
I worked on the History Channel series Harley and the Davidsons. We met MOST of the people on that pic.
They didn’t want news reports about people protesting at their facilities.
Their overseas sales came in bad. Don’t want cnn showing the world the protests.
Besides, a lot of their agents overseas have been sacking up to obama.
You do know that’s not a Harley,don’t you?
But, who cares!
If they add 2 more wheels then they would have something.
Might tip over with only 2 wheels.
Yes the Bikers for Trump were at the Inauguration. They were mainly there to to protect the people from the idiot protestors and help the police.
Yeah who cares when there’s a sexy chick sitting on it, right?
Lets put it this way: Someone that pushes a bicycle down a hilly street, doesn't need to ride a motorcycle.
Bringing two wheeled equivalents of large clumsy pickup trucks is not encouraging.
