WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh June 13th, 2017

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.960
<v Speaker 1>The Democrats quest to explain to themselves why they lost

0:00:04.080 --> 0:00:07.360
<v Speaker 1>continued recently at something called the People's Summit in Chicago.

0:00:07.960 --> 0:00:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Van Jones Obama's Greens are decided to blame Hillary Clinton.

0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:16.560
<v Speaker 1>He blasted her and her campaign for tricking Democrats into

0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:20.200
<v Speaker 1>fighting among themselves over the wrong issues. Van Jones said

0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:22.840
<v Speaker 1>the Clinton team based their campaign on a false narrative.

0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:25.800
<v Speaker 1>They acted as if they had to choose between racial

0:00:25.880 --> 0:00:29.160
<v Speaker 1>justice for people of color or the white working class.

0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:32.239
<v Speaker 1>He called it the stupidest false choice he'd ever heard of.

0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:35.599
<v Speaker 1>He also laid into the campaign for spending all that

0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:41.000
<v Speaker 1>money on themselves, polsters, and consultants instead of campaigning. He said,

0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:43.120
<v Speaker 1>they took a billion dollars, they set it on fire.

0:00:43.120 --> 0:00:45.960
<v Speaker 1>They called it a campaign. He argued the money should

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:49.000
<v Speaker 1>have been given back to the people and Democrats should

0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:52.680
<v Speaker 1>stop getting rich off of other people struggles. Now, He's

0:00:52.720 --> 0:00:56.400
<v Speaker 1>mostly right, Hillary did squander a billion dollars, which came

0:00:56.400 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 1>primarily from super rich donors, not the people. He's also

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:05.600
<v Speaker 1>right that the political establishment class got rich, very rich.

0:01:05.720 --> 0:01:08.399
<v Speaker 1>Even if they lose election after election, they get rich.

0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 1>It happens in both parties. But his complaint that Hillary

0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:15.679
<v Speaker 1>campaigned on identity politics. Come on, Van, that's what the

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:19.000
<v Speaker 1>whole Democrat Party has run on for fifty years. Hillary

0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:22.880
<v Speaker 1>was just following the script, except this time it didn't work.

0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Because she was such a lousy candidate, nothing would have

0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:28.600
<v Speaker 1>helped get over it.
