RUSH: This is Bill Richardson. He’s a former State Department guy for the Clinton administration, former governor, New Mexico. I’ve had some dealings with him, he’s been a nice guy. This is crazy. He’s on CNN this afternoon. And they’re talking about the news that Kim Jong-un has executed five people involved in the last failed nuclear summit with the Trumpster in Vietnam.
And so the infobabe on CNN says, “Do you see this on the part of Kim as more acting on impulse than strategy or –” She’s asking, this guy just reportedly executed six of his own high-ranking leaders, officials, whatever, “Is he acting on impulse, uh, or strategy?” (laughing) As though this may be justified. Assassinating, executing six of your top people may be justified. Did he do it strategically, tactically, or was it on impulse? Now, the important thing here is Richardson’s answer. In three, two, one.
RICHARDSON: I see it more as impulse. He’s unlike his father, who was more restrained, although he also participated in some murders. I see it as him feeling that he was gonna come through with an agreement with President Trump in Hanoi. And he’s trying to blame somebody because I think, like President Trump, he doesn’t listen to his advisers all the time. And I’m sure —
RUSH: Ha!
RICHARDSON: — the spy chief told him they want denuclearization —
RUSH: Oh!
RICHARDSON: — and we’re not ready to do it.
RUSH: What?
RICHARDSON: I think Kim Jong-un felt that he and —
RUSH: Wait!
RICHARDSON: — President Trump had this special relationship that —
RUSH: What?
RICHARDSON: — override both of their advisers.
RUSH: So we can expect Trump to start executing Pompeo and Pence? He’s like Trump? Kim Jong-un is like Trump, he doesn’t listen to his advisers, he shoots them? He’s like Trump?
Okay, anybody on the phones want to follow that? Lake Tahoe. This is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Lake Tahoe, and it’s Frank. It’s great to have you, Frank. How you doing, sir?
CALLER: Thank you, Rush. Thanks for taking my call. I just kind of had a statement and maybe kind of a question about the tariffs that are going on?
RUSH: Sure!
CALLER: Well, I get really frustrated. You know, we’re in a political and economic war with China, and nobody seems to understand that. And all the people up here that I talk to, all they do is moan and complain about prices going up. And it worries me because everybody’s concerned about that and not concerned about the long-term economic status —
RUSH: Frank, let me ask you a quick question. Are you on the California or Nevada side of Lake Tahoe?
CALLER: I’m on Nevada.
RUSH: Well, that explains it. California is use to price increases, no big deal to them. But Nevada, could be — I understand that people don’t get the importance here. The president’s tried to make the case, so have we here. But, you know, the Drive-Bys are reporting this as Trump being impetuous and endangering people.
CALLER: That’s the problem is they don’t really care because it doesn’t suit their means. Telling everybody that their prices are going up, the only reason why they’re doing it is to try to hurt Trump.
RUSH: Exactly.
CALLER: And it just frustrates me because to me it’s just un-American not to think about the future of America.
RUSH: Frank, it’s worse than that. Frank, the media doesn’t understand this. The media sees things in such a narrow field, a narrow prism. How can it hurt Trump? How can our reporting of any it, how can it hurt Trump? And they reduce it to the lowest common denominator, which in this case is, “Prices are going up. Things are gonna become more expensive because Donald Trump doesn’t care about you!”
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: President Trump is just like Kim Jong-un. He’s impulsive. He doesn’t listen to his advisers, after being asked about Kim Jong-un executing his advisers. Yeah, he’s just like Trump.
What we know with absolute certainty is that Trump’s policy positions are refined by a meticulous process involving many people. On policy matters Trump avoids the possibility of impulsive decisions.
Look at any policy position. It will be detailed and sophisticated. There simply are no exceptions.
Trump’s words in personal exchange may be impulsive. He is spontaneous and completely transparent. His policies? NEVER!
I thought we’d seen the last of Bill Richardson. From his lying about being drafted by the Oakland A’s, to his lunching with Monica Lewinsky to find her a job so she’d keep her mouth shut, to his $250,000 confidential payment in 2007, to a New Mexico State employee who claimed he’d sexually harassed her, to his over budget New Mexico train to nowhere, to his pay-for-play State investments scandal, to his first endorsing Hillary, and then dumping her, and endorsing Obama, to finally having to drop out of being considered for Secretary of State. Why is it that scumbags like him never know when to call it quits? Somehow they think they have something to say that people want to hear. We don’t dum-dum. Just go away.
Is Trump killing his own people because a deal fell through?
Oh, that bill richardson? Go sell some fords assclown. What a UPOS!

“This is Bill Richardson. He’s a former State Department guy for the Clinton administration, former governor, New Mexico. I’ve had some dealings with him, he’s been a nice guy.”
No, I’ve considered Bill Richardson a Piece of Obama for a long time.
Ah...forgot about that one!! Thanks for the reminder.
“I thought we’d seen the last of Bill Richardson.”
We can only HOPE !!!
Looks like Kim thinks Trump got the best of him.
Well Trump doesn’t execute those who’ve failed him; however it seems the Clinton’s apparently do.
Something very perfidious has happened in N.M.
Richardson was the start of hit and it’s simply gotten worse .
Look at the loser lily Governor that they have there now .
How about Federal martial law , until they get their brains together again ?
“This is Bill Richardson”. Now you know why New Mexico is a Marxist shithole, our foreign policies under Clinton/Obama sucked, and Richardson is a has-been loser most of his life.
IF Trump were like Little Kim, Richardson would have been target practice sushi a long time ago.
This is the level of scumbag we're talking about here, just to clarify.
Yup!
Like this one. Detailed, sophisticated and completely unambiguous.
Wen Ho Lee did not steel the hard drives. No one stole them, but the FBI - yes that FBI - almost destroyed a nuclear weapons lab looking for a perp because they were misfiled and later found.
Wen Ho Lee did something else, but no that.
What Bill Richardson did do was spend about $3.5 B on a project in Dianne Feinstein's state. He was running for VEEP and wanted her support.

“Bill Richardson: Kim Jong-Un Is Impulsive — Just Like Trump”
I have an impulse too Bill. Go back to NM and help that little she-snot governess F up the state some more.
How much of the U.S. media is owned by the Chinese?
Kim Jong-um!
These guys are pathetic.
