Brexit Doom and Gloom Was BS

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Did you see the stock market was up nearly 270 points yesterday? How did this happen, folks? The stock market came back, futures are up 100 points, sky isn't falling, wizards of smart said that the world's financial markets were gonna go to hell all because of the Brexit vote. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

Everything happens predictably except when the doom and gloom sets in, they want you to believe it's permanent and it's all over. And, sadly, it works. It creates cumulatively this overwhelming attitude of doom and gloom that the establishment and the left predicts and creates every time they don't get their way, and that's when it happens.

Whenever they don't get their way, when they lose an election, when they lose something that's very dear and close to them, it's the end of the world, and there's no stopping it, and nobody pays attention to the rebound. Nobody stops to explain to people that panic is the order of the day in each and every day. It's generally ginned up, and it's all part of the daily soap opera script that's written by the establishment to keep everybody unsettled and off guard.

It's becoming increasingly difficult in this country to be upbeat and positive, even for people naturally inclined that way, because the daily bombardment that you get from what is called the news media is designed to poke every positive belief people have and blow it up. Even things that have no impact on you and effect on you are presented in such a way to make you think, "Well, even if it doesn't affect me, it's hurting somebody, it's so bad out there." I mean, there is some that's bad, but it's largely manufactured by them.

My point is it's just getting harder and harder and harder to have an upbeat, positive outlook 'cause they bombard us each and every day with things. But the stock market's coming back. There really isn't gonna be any significant change attitudinally or in real terms with improvement 'til this bunch is defeated and gone. There really isn't, folks. As long as people on the left, and to an even lesser extent, as long as establishment, elite people continue to run the show wherever you are, you're not going to be happy.

They're not gonna let you be happy. They have to keep you upset. They have to keep you on edge. They have to keep a little bit of chaos going. That's how you end up saying, "Would you fix it for me? Would you fix it? Would you make me feel better?" Whatever it takes. And that's how you end up surrendering ever so slowly a little of your freedom here and a little your freedom there for happiness, for security, for consistency, whatever it might be.

And this is a great example of it. Stock market plunges five or 600 points after the Brexit vote, "Oh, my God, look what these idiot people have done." And the next stories are how many trillions of dollars of wealth have been lost. Now here comes the market roaring back, NASDAQ's up 72 today, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is back, it's all coming back. It always does.

Everything is cyclical. But there isn't any accompanying upbeat news today about any of it. No, the drumbeat is continually focused on what you need to be upset about and depressed about today. Believe me, you don't need any help with that. You're living it. You know full-fledged what's wrong, and you know full-fledged who's behind it.

True. But they’re still an easy win for the presidency.

I HOPE it stays that way!!

Indeed. It is going to be a long and anxious next four months.
