CALLER: 110 percent. That’s the full draw-out of that for me. And that’s what they still don’t get about why we support Trump. I don’t always agree with everything he does, again, we can go into that nonsense, but again, when I talk to people, I take him and his fight and his support of us and trying to do what’s right and taking it to the other side and trying to accomplish these things over the lay down and die and let them run over us.
So, you know, I’ll take the good with the bad, right? And to me, the past 40 years, what have Republicans solved? George Bush was a good, decent man, yes. But what did he really get done? What did we really benefit from it? And so at some point I get kind of tired of supporting that when I really don’t ever get any payoff for it.
RUSH: This is precisely why I have been trying to stress that what we have been seeing today is not the way our politics used to be. It’s the way the left wants it to be, but it’s never been this way. The Bush family, the Bush values, the traditions, virtues, whatever you want to call them that defined them and governed their philosophies of life is what we’re seeing.
And my point is that that that we’re seeing used to define the whole country or the vast, vast majority of it. And it’s important to know that’s what’s been lost, the virtues, the values, the manners, what have you, that people are watching in this funeral are what used to be the norm. And we’ve lost them. And not because of Donald Trump. We have lost them because there was a war raged against them, waged against them beginning in the late eighties or the early nineties.
I could even peg it, if you wanted to put militant feminism in this mix, which you can, it’s clearly one of the many ingredients of the culture war, you have to go back to the late sixties for that. The attack on America, as founded, has been ongoing since then. But the real intense version has been within many of our lifetimes. And here’s the thing that people in Washington, a political skirmish over the budget. It’s not a political skirmish over how many more years we’re gonna have Social Security.
People who voted for Donald Trump genuinely believed their country as founded was at stake. When those are the stakes, it doesn’t matter that your guy defending you may have manners on Twitter that are not recommendable. It doesn’t matter. What matters is saving the country from the marauders on the left who want to basically erase every vestige of our founding and turn this country over to people for whom it was never intended. And in that kind of a battle with that on the line — but Washington doesn’t see that crisis. Republicans, Democrats, there isn’t any kind of crisis. It’s the average political arguments of the day. They come and go. That’s the great divide.both parties, refuse to understand. This isn’t
I don’t think many people see Obama as a bad president because he was black. He was a bad president because he was a cultural Marxist, anti-American neo-communist Islamist sympathizer. He could have been a full blooded Cherokee, a Chinaman or a red-headed Irishman but given all of those flaws, he was bound to be a bad president. Being black just made it worse because he was able to work in race baiting as yet another way to be America’s worst ever president, I don’t even rate Carter that bad. Maybe Millard Fillmore was a stinker, we have no way to compare apples and oranges.
The media hates anyone who voted for Trump.
I voted for Trump to save and return the country to what I knew during the Reagan Administration.
I wish all of them, our friends and foes, would keep up the kumbaya moment until next week. Then release EVERYTHINNG about GHWB, including his activities that led him from the HOR to director of the CIA.
We elected Trump to undo the Bush Plan for North Mexico that they have been implementing for 30 years against the will of the citizens.
Uh, no, we did not, Rush, and I shut you off today and yesterday, because frankly I am sick of Bush.
No one had f*ck all to say about him before he died, and now he was the greatest guy ever.
Nauseating.
I’m with the caller. The Bushes have been part of the problem. So it’s really hard for me to stomach any respect for them.
The great divide in a nutshell:
For too many years, the gop and the gentle conservatives, have laid down and let the dims/left/libs have it their way. They came to consider it the right way to do congress. No problem as long as those like pelosi ran the show. The media saw it that way also.
The people out here didn’t see it that way... and voted! So we now have a fighter as President and the left are yelling “fire”.. no way to get along.. you on the extreme right are dividing the nation.. we have had rule and you can’t come in and try to actuallly govern.
You all know the rest of the story... you all know what fair and equal means.. it’s for sure the left doesn’t.
