RUSH: Did you hear what David Axelrod said about the Carryn Owens moment? Now, this obviously is a slip of the tongue. If this had been stated something like this had been stated by (sigh), I dont know, Karl Rove, by somebody equivalent to Axelrod (who ran Obamas campaign) In an unfortunate choice of words, Axelrod said about that moment, Youd have to be dead not to appreciate it. Now Now, we will acknowledge that thats an unfortunate choice of words, but I doubt anybody else screwing up like that would be given much leeway.
They would have been referred to as mean-spirited and sour grapes and partisan and what have you. CNN during the break was back to their bait-and-switch on immigration, another segment on Trumps immigration bait-and-switch, meaning By the way, I knew last night that in the immediate aftermath when all they could do was praise it, it wasnt gonna last. It cant last. Their objective hasnt changed. They are going to get rid of the guy. They are either get rid of the guy or theyre going to render him impotent and unable to accomplish anything.
That is the mission of the American media. Most of it. Exceptions of course. Nothing is gonna change their minds about.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Now, Van Jones, the avowed communist at CNN, former member of the Obama Regime, was blown away by the moment last night where Carryn Owens was honored along with her husband, a Navy SEAL, by President Trump, and he is being tarred and feathered today by other liberals. They are ripping him a new one, and this is what he said last night on CNNs special coverage.
CNNs Van Jones: Trump 'Became President of the United States Tonight'
JONES: Theres substance, and theres tone. The substance of the speech I disagree with entirely. But I think at some point Democrats gotta be willing to take yes for an answer. Weve been asking for him to be more presidential. Weve been asking for him to be less divisive. Weve been asking for him to pretend like maybe being the president matters to him, as much as it matters to us, and tonight he showed some glimmers of that. If we cant as Democrats say, You know what? Thank you for that part, then I think that we are adding to the problem were trying to solve. Were not gonna get there if everything he does weve gotta attack even when hes right.
RUSH: Well, thats not the bite that I wanted. He was effusive. That speaks for itself. I mean, that would get him in trouble as it is. But he went way beyond that when he was describing the Carryn Owens moment. And Ill tell you what that is when we get that.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Heres what Van Jones said, and hes got Keith Olbermann jumping all over him. Hes got Bill Maher, everybodys jumping all over him cause this woman was nothing but a prop, dont you understand. Trump used her and exploited her as a prop and how can Van Jones not see that.
Heres what he said: There are a lot of people who have a lot of reason to be frustrated with Trump, to be fearful of him, but that was one of the most extraordinary moments you have ever seen in American politics, period. And he did something extraordinary. And for the people whove been hoping that he would become unifying, hoping that he might find some way to become presidential, they should be happy with that moment.

And he did something extraordinary. And for the people whove been hoping that he would become unifying, hoping that he might find some way to become presidential, they should be happy with that moment.
For people who have been hoping that maybe he would remain a divisive cartoon, which he often finds a way to do, they should begin to become a little bit worried tonight because that thing you just saw him do, if he finds a way to do that over and over again, hes gonna be there for eight years. Now, there was a lot that he said in that speech that was counterfactual, that was not right, that I oppose and I will oppose. But he did something tonight that you cannot take away from him. He became president of the United States.
He was effusive. And the left, you would not believe some of the vicious tweets that have been aimed at Carryn Owens for allowing herself to be used as a prop, allowing herself to be exploited by this evil Trump. And Van Jones being savaged for not seeing that thats what was going on.
Now, youll note in this, heres the party of feminism, right? Heres the party of women. And this party cannot look at that woman and see that maybe shes strong and maybe that she loved her husband and maybe shes doing nothing in terms of being exploited. That she is thrilled and honored to have her husband honored. That its going to mean something forever to her and her children. That it is a high honor, that her husband died protecting this country he loves. And the Democrats see a helpless objectified waif, the party of women?
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: I want to go back before we go back to the phones to this Van Jones bite that I played, because I had not heard this. The only one Id heard all day was him going overboard bonkers on the well, now I dont know what to call her, Karen or Carryn Owens. I thought I heard everybody calling her Karen Owens last night, and now one persons telling me its Carryn, so. I hate mispronouncing peoples names. (interruption) Okay, thank you. Finally, somebody confirmed. Its Carryn Owens. But this bite that we just played, the one I thought was Van Jones reacting to that, this is a different one, and I want to comment on this. So here it is again. This was last night on CNN.
JONES: Theres substance, and theres tone. The substance of the speech I disagree with entirely. But I think at some point Democrats gotta be willing to take yes for an answer. Weve been asking for him to be more presidential. Weve been asking for him to be less divisive. Weve been asking for him to pretend like maybe being the president matters to him, as much as it matters to us, and tonight he showed some glimmers of that. If we cant as Democrats say, You know what? Thank you for that part, then I think that we are adding to the problem were trying to solve. Were not gonna get there if everything he does weve gotta attack even when hes right.
RUSH: Okay, now, this has got all kinds of things to unpack here, because, on balance I guess its a complimentary conclusion that you would draw, that Van Jones is being here. And his buddies on the left are mad at him for being this open and tolerant of Trump, who is to be universally despised and hated and ridiculed and never, ever have anything positive about him spoken.
But there is also, theres something unsettling about this. Weve been asking him to be more presidential. Weve been asking for him to be less divisive, as though we still run the show here. And he better conform to what we want or else. And whatever Trump is doing, its not because hes trying to conform to what these people think theyre demanding.
Weeeee have been asking him to be more presidential. And I dont know if he means the Democrats or the media here. Probably is one and the same, what difference does it make. Weeeee have been asking for him to be less divisive. Weeeee have been asking for him to pretend like maybe being the president matters to him as much as it matters to us.
This is that arrogance that comes from people who think that power is their entitlement and this is just an interruption, and so since he somehow managed with the Russians to pull this off, could you at least behave the way we demand? If we didnt win and you did, still could you at least behave so were not embarrassed, or some such thing. (interruption) To who? A warning?
Snerdley thinks that Van Jones is issuing a warning to the Democrats that they better wake up and understand what theyre dealing with here, that theyre dealing with a different animal. It could be. That would be a rather high degree of maturity. There may be an element of that, there could be.
I got a bit teary eyed at that moment. It was genuine emotion. I loved how Ivanka comforted her during that moment too. Genuine human feelings were there, which transcend the political statement the liberals are trying to make out of this.
Is there a reason the Joint Chief of Staff did not stand to honor this widow, and fallen warrior?
Is it not protocol??......or protocol to remain seated?
The lefties simply cannot stand that the Trump family is smarter and classier and better-mannered than the 0bamas. It grinds on them so they have to lash out.
Ruch is caught in a time warp.
They are irrelevant, and for most of the country, unknown.
To the chorus on the Left, they were joined by the glummest of faces from Mika Brzenski, this morning on MJoe.
Her depression was palpable, mixed with bitterness, and I knew then that President Trump scored a direct hit, a thrust into the heart of the Left. Mika gets her mood and her talking points from high places. Alarms had to have been on Code Blue.
She did not snap out of it, or even start to get a grip on a recovery, when at the half I had to break away. Thought seriously that it was so bad that maybe she had suffered a break up with someone, or with Joe.
That’s all you took from the article? Hmmm
