RUSH: Last week late last week, Thursday and Friday there appears in various media stories about how one, two, and then three prominent Democrats expressed the need for the Democrat Party to start walking back all this talk of impeachment. First, it was just one, and then another one. It ended up being three people. I dont remember their names right off the bat; doesnt matter. And it caught my attention, obviously.
Why walk back this notion of impeachment? And there were two reasons. One reason is, there isnt a crime here. Despite all of this irresponsible reporting, there isnt a crime, and there isnt any collusion. Second thing is just that. There are people who have, over the course of the last three weeks, on the Democrat side, tiptoed into the water and said, We havent any evidence. Dianne Feinstein to Wolf Blitzer twice, for example. There was another Democrat on Grassleys committee that said, Yeah, no, we dont have any evidence. We havent seen any evidence yet. Former CIA director for Obama, Michael Morell, about two weeks ago was on MSNBC.
He said there isnt any evidence of any collusion.
So theyve been tiptoeing around this. You put that together with the talk by the Democrats that they need to walk back impeachment, and what do you have? You have, I think, a potentially explosive and destructive thing awaiting the Democrats. What have they done? Lets go back to the campaign. Why did everybody think that Hillary Clinton was gonna win in a landslide, particularly her supporters and her and her campaign? They were so confident, they didnt even campaign in states they thought were a lock. They were arrogant, overly confident. And why? Because they believed their own media.
They believed the Drive-By Media, who, by the way, leads them. They believed the Drive-By Media polls. They believed all of the stories about Trump and his boorishness, and they believed that the American people were repulsed by it and were rejecting it. And they ignored 20,000, 25,000 at Trump rallies as insignificant, inconsequential, crowd size doesnt matter at all in politics. And they werent just lied to for a couple of weeks; they were lied to for the entire campaign.
Even during the Podesta email meltdown, even during the WikiLeaks, all of this they were repeatedly assured, they were guaranteed. Nate Silver is out there saying, Oh, yeah, 85, 90% chance Hillary wins. They believed it lock, stock, and barrel. They thought it was a slam dunk. They were lied to. Their own media set them up. Their own media lied to them. Their own media told stories they hoped would end up being true. They reported things that were not true that they hoped people would believe about Trump.
They assured their own supporters that there was no way Trump could win. This was gonna be an historic landslide and a great victory for the Democrats, the first woman ever to crack the glass ceiling in politics and head all the way into the Oval Office, even though Mrs. Clinton has shown no evidence of such electoral prominence and victory, other than her Senate seat in New York, which Democrats dont lose in New York.
But then the unexpected happened, the inexplicable, the impossible, and Donald Trump did win. And in the Electoral College, it was handily won. So what happened next? Twenty-four hours later a narrative was recreated, and that narrative was that the Russians colluded with Trump to steal the election from Hillary, that the Russians hacked our elections, that the Russians stole the election, the election was commandeered by Trump working with Putin. The Democrat Party picked up the story and ran with it, the Drive-By Media picked up the story and ran with it all during the transition to the point that everybody in the Democrat Party in the country to this day really believes that there was collusion.
They really believe that Trump stole the election working with Putin. They have been convinced because theyve been lied to. They believe it. It is not their ideology leading them to this belief. It is not their desire. Theyve been told. Their media everywhere, New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, the Los Angeles Times, multiple times a day since November the 10th have been telling the people of this country the election was stolen, it was corrupted by Trump and the Russians. During the transition, additional sources were added from the deep state. Anonymous sources, intelligence community sources who said that the evidence they were looking uh, sorry they werent looking at evidence.
There were reports, there were leaks, there were suspicions. By the time we get to the present day, how many anonymous sources since last November alone must there have been pushing this lie? The New York Times reports maybe its the Washington Post one of the two, 30 different anonymous sources on this one story, one newspaper. This lie has been told over and over again. It has been buttressed, it has been supplanted, it has been expanded. There are more anonymous sources. There are additional sources now from overseas. We had that fake dossier that was treated as real by the Drive-By Media.
My point is, the Democrat Party and the media have lied for now nine consecutive months, and dont forget the involvement of the FBI director. The FBI director who was originally hated is now loved and adored because it is just known hes got evidence. Oh, yeah. And whats her name, Sally Yates, she had evidence. She was gonna blow. She didnt have any evidence. Comeys next, hes got the evidence, hes gonna blow Trump out of the water. He doesnt have the evidence. Comeys already said there isnt any evidence. Clapper has said there isnt any evidence. A bunch of Democrats have tiptoed in, We dont have any evidence. Theyve always said yet.
So there are some literally dangerously imbalanced leftists who are already protesting and causing threats and riots at town halls. The FCC director has people peering into his windows trying to get an idea of the layout of his home. This is Ajit Pai. The Democrat Party, the American media, has literally created an insane asylum that has no walls. And the people in this insane asylum, who are genuinely, truly unbalanced, have been made this way by having been fed a diet of raw hatred for the last nine months.
Now, of course theyve been fed this raw hatred for decades. But in the intense specifics of this election and the collusion with the Russians, they have been fed lies and distortions and rumors as fact. They have created a brimming, a burgeoning, an effervescing, raw hatred that has yet had no outlet for expression. Its bubbling up and its waiting to explode.
And the Democrats are scared to death of the day they have to make it official: There was no collusion, there was no evidence, there will be no impeachment. Thats why theyre trying to walk back impeachment, cause theyre scared to death of what theyve created. They cant control it. It is an uncorralled monster of genuine insane lunatics that is the Democrat base.
Dems: “OMG OMG OMG THE USUAL STUFF IS NOT WORKING OH NOOOOEEESS!!”
They don’t need evidence. Just repeat the same accusations again and again and keeping banging the drum.
The nature of the evidence (like if there was any) is not important. The severity of the charges demand that something be done. (from Clarence Thomas’ “high tech lynching”)
Frankenstein was killed by his own creation................
Yeah, they’re walking it back.
This whole impeachment talk makes the dems and the MSM look like a bunch of Mad Maxine Waters kooks.
Which essentially they are.
I agree, it won’t be about evidence, as there isn’t any. It will be about supposed obstruction of justice for a crime that does not exist.
But also there is evidence that would come out in hearings about Clinton Inc ties to Russia.
It was like the recount in Michigan; it came to a screeching halt when one precinct showed 50 ballots in the box but recorded 350 for Clinton.
The focus of the sp cial proseecutor will broaden into Unmaking. That’s why the Dems are quaking in their bots
That’s Frrrronk-n-steen.....
Not only are they scared of the reaction when it becomes apparent to all that there is not evidence but they are scared of where the actual investigation may go: the assassination of Seth Rich...
For which there is FAR more evidence then the ludicrous conspiracy crap between Putin and Trump.
I suspect there are many Democrats who are absolutely convinced that Donald Trump would relish the idea of an impeachment spectacle carried out as the greatest TV drama of all time. Could you imagine what his Twitter feed would look like? LOL.
Shteen.................
IMHO: After close to nine months of investigation no one has come up with any evidence showing POTUS colluded with the Russians. This leads me to believe that there is no “evidence” to be found, or the investigators are a crowd incompetents or idiots.(or both)
Eggs-Zactly. I fully expect Mr. Mueller to state any day now that there was no Trump/Russia connection.
But - he has found ample evidence linking Bill, Hillary, Comey, Huma, Carlos Danger, Podesta, Lynch, and of course Obama to dozens of crimes, felonies, schemes and scandals. With indictments, subpoenas and arrest warrants to be issued in 5, 4, 3 ...
These idiot democrats have opened Pandora's Box.
Once the Dems are forced to admit there was no Russian influence on the election, the natural question to ask is: Well DNC, if it wasn’t the Russians, then why did Hillary lose?
Long before Nixon’s independent counsel appointment, there had been a number of arrests, indictments, and convictions. The few sober Dem leaders understand the premature nature of real impeachment proceedings.
