Fanny Willis the DA in Fulton County giving 23 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: six hundred and fifty thousand dollars to her lover to 24 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: investigate Donald Trump taxpayer dollars. A guy who otherwise is 25 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: doing car accident cases gets six hundred and fifty thousand 26 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: dollars to investigate Donald Trump. Fanny Willis allegedly breaks up 27 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: his marriage and has been taking extravagant vacations that he 28 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: paid for with the money from the state that she 29 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: gave to him to go after Donald Trump. All of 30 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: this a huge story. Why does it matter? We will 31 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: put it into context for all of you, But as 32 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: we get ready, by the way, you can load it up.

But I 40 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: wanted to make sure that we honored Rush Limbaugh. The 41 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: legend on his birthday, and we have a clip that 42 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: I wanted to play for all of you that producer 43 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: Ali got for all of you to be able to 44 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: listen to and reminder we still have the same staff 45 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: working on this program that worked with Rush, including producer Ali, 46 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: who's been with him for twenty years. Out you can 47 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 1: pull up your mic if you want here because you've 48 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: been with Rush for so long before Buck and I 49 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: were here. I think it's always worth mentioning how many 50 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: people are still working on this show that we're a 51 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: part of the Rush Show. The team is to a 52 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: large extent still intact behind the scenes. For people out 53 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: there who've been listening to this show for a long time, 54 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: how many people do we have on the show that 55 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: were with Rush and how long have you guys now 56 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 1: been in this time slot working together. 57 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 3: Well, we have pretty much the majority of our staff 58 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 3: still with us, with you and you and Buck, and 59 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 3: it's kind of hard to imagine that it's been this 60 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 3: many decades. I feel like I'm aging myself. 61 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it is pretty incredible to think about 62 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: how many of those people have been fighting the good 63 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: fight for so long, and including producer Ali, does incredible 64 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: work getting all the guests that you hear on this program, 65 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: along with many other aspects such as she never knows 66 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: what she's walking in to trying to investigate what the 67 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: term is for a male mistress. 68 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: You got to keep your head on a swivel. Here. 69 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: By the way, the guy who was getting paid six 70 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand dollars Nathan Wade, two person law 71 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: firm Wade in Campbell. And you can get into a 72 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: car accident and retain this guy, I just would point 73 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: out to you you're probably not at the apex of 74 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: the Atlanta legal community when it comes to criminal law. 75 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: If you can get into a car accident and call 76 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: this guy and get him to represent you, and there's 77 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: no way that he was making big money and suddenly 78 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: he gets six hundred and fifty thousand dollars from his 79 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: lover who is paying him with your taxpayer dollars again, 80 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: State of Georgia. I don't understand how there isn't a 81 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: massive investigation. This may well be criminal at a minimum. 82 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: I think it requires Fanny Willis to not be involved, 83 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: along with many other people on this case. But I 84 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: want to continue to start off third hour here Happy 85 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: birthday to Rush Limbaugh. We've got a couple of clips 86 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: for you. This is in March of twenty fifteen. A 87 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: caller tells Rush, you're my coach and motivational speaker. This 88 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: is a couple of minutes back from March of twenty fifteen. 89 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: Happy birthday, Rush, This is a clip that I think 90 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: all of you will enjoy. 91 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 4: I used to listen to you as a for a 92 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 4: motivational speaker because you always expected more out of people 93 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 4: than they thought they had themselves. And for that reason, 94 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 4: I always called you a coach and I had to 95 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 4: listen to you. 96 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 5: Thanks a lot, Cooch, Well, I appreciate that. I you 97 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 5: know what You're right. I do have high expectations of people, 98 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 5: and it's one of the reasons I'm so often I'm disappointed, 99 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 5: not with people in this audience, but I do have 100 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 5: I have high expectations of people in their ability to learn. 101 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 5: I have high expectations of people to see the truth. 102 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 5: I have high expectations of people being open to the 103 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 5: truth and being able to be persuaded to it. I 104 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 5: have high expectations of people being able to accomplish more 105 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 5: than they think they can. And it has been You're 106 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 5: absolutely right. It is one of the unstated attitudinal characteristics 107 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 5: of me hosting the program, incumbent with the way I 108 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 5: do it and the way I talk about things and 109 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 5: the things I talk about is the expectation that everybody's 110 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 5: going to understand what I say and with the high 111 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 5: hope that everybody's going to believe it and act on it. 112 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 5: And it's because I have those high expectations of people. 113 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 5: I grew up with high expectations that I had all 114 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 5: kinds of pressure in that way, and I found out 115 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 5: it's great motivation. The soft bigotry of low expectation will 116 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 5: kill you. I mean it will destroy people and the 117 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 5: opportunity they have to maximize their potential, either as human 118 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 5: beings or as employees or career workers or whatever it is. 119 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 5: If people don't expect much, you know, they'll give them 120 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 5: what what they expect. Low expectations do not inspire, do 121 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 5: not motivate. So you've actually identified something that is a 122 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 5: constant ingredient, if you will, of the attitude I arrived 123 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 5: to the Golden EiV microphone with every day. 124 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: So well said, and Rush, as many of you know, 125 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: was a monster football fan, talked about becoming an NFL 126 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: owner in his home state of Missouri back when the 127 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: Rams still played there. I remember following that story and 128 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: I thought this was interesting because this week, as he 129 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: was talking about coaching and high expectations and the importance 130 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: of expecting more than maybe people think they can give themselves, 131 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: we had probably the two greatest coaches in their respective 132 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: sports in college, Nick Saban and In with the album 133 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: Amigrams and Tide, and in New England Bill Belichick with 134 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: the New England Patriots. And I know Rush would have 135 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: watched many of those guys games over the last generation 136 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: and enjoyed the lessons that they were imparting. And Nick Saban, 137 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: I thought, tied in with what Rush was just saying there. 138 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: And we have a little clip from Nick Saban talking 139 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: about how well, let me just play it, And this 140 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: is good work by producer Ali to go track this 141 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: down because I think it so intertwines with the message 142 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: that Rush was just sharing and connects it to what's 143 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: going on today. Listen to Nick Saban talk about expectations, 144 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: much like Rush just was mediocre. 145 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 6: People don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like 146 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 6: mediocre people. So if everybody doesn't buy into the same 147 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 6: principles and values the organization in the same high standard, 148 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 6: you're never going to be successful. Just like our spring 149 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 6: practice right now. You know what my goal with spring practices. 150 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 6: Get the right guys on the bus, get them in 151 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 6: the right seats, and get the wrong guys off the bus. 152 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 3: Well. 153 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: I also thought about this yesterday. Nick Saban did an interview, 154 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: and by the way, I think Rush would have been 155 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: nodding along with a lot of what Nick Saban said. 156 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: Because anybody out there who's involved in coaching anything knows 157 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: that you're trying to get the apex out of whatever 158 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: your team has. And I've coached, trust me, very low level. 159 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 1: I've coached my boys sporting teams. You know, whether it's 160 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: whether it's flag football, whether it is whether it's baseball, 161 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: whether it's soccer. I've been involved poorly, I should mention 162 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: as typically an assistant coach, maybe doing more of that 163 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: with my three boys. But what I think is interesting 164 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: about this is it's about your awareness of what you 165 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: are capable of. And I think Rush would have spoken 166 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: to that well. Starting off with a small audience and 167 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: building it into a big audience. But I thought about 168 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: this yesterday, when I was watching Nick Saban explain why 169 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: he was retiring at seventy two years old. He said 170 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: he didn't have the energy and stamina to do his 171 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: job at the high level that he expected, and so, 172 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: rather than not be able to do the job at 173 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: the level that he believed was necessary to be the 174 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: most effective version of himself, he said, it's time for 175 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 1: me to retire. And I just thought, wouldn't you like 176 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: to hear a politician say that. Wouldn't you like to 177 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: hear Joe Biden just say, guys, regardless of your politics, 178 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: I just don't have the ability to do this job anymore. 179 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: And it tied in with a question that I've been 180 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: asking that I think goes to the essence of why 181 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: so many people are disappointed about the political representation that 182 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: we have in this country today. Why do we hold 183 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: our football coaches, high school, college, and pro to a 184 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,599 Speaker 1: higher standard of job performance than we do our politicians. 185 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: When I was sitting when I was sitting there listening 186 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: to Nick Saban say he didn't have the energy to 187 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: do the job at seventy two that was required to 188 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: do it well, I thought to myself, Man, I wish 189 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 1: Joe Biden at eighty one had that level of self awareness, And. 190 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 2: I also thought, what does it say about our. 191 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: Country if a football coach has to work harder at 192 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: coaching football than a politician does at being the president 193 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: of the United States. 194 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 2: I would, right now, no. 195 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 1: Joke, one billion percent, rather have Nick Saban or Bill 196 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: Belichick as President of the United States than Joe Biden. 197 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: And I don't even know their politics. I just know 198 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: that they're super hard working, that they don't take crap, 199 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: that they won't settle for mediocrity. And I think if 200 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,719 Speaker 1: Russia were with us here right now, he'd be on 201 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: his head and saying, you know what, me too, so 202 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 1: happy birth Rush, We'll take some of your calls. I'm 203 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: going to dive back into why this Fanny Willis story 204 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: in Atlanta is potentially the thread that destroys all of 205 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: the criminal charges that are being brought against Donald Trump 206 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: and why I think the state of Georgia and all 207 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: of its leadership has to open a big investigation. But 208 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 1: as we go to break, Congressman Jim Jordan just shared 209 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: this story. The House Judiciary Committee has announced an investigation 210 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: into the Fulton County Special Prosecutor and we'll talk about 211 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: this a little bit more when we come back. Why 212 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: in the world is the federal government doing its job 213 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: better than the State of Georgia's government. There needs to 214 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: be a full fledged investigation opened into six hundred and 215 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars in your taxpayer dollars in Georgia paid 216 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: for the paramore, the jigglow, the mister A lot of 217 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: you with a variety of the histress was one suggestion 218 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: that a lot of you have for what a woman's 219 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: boyfriend mistress should be called. I'll tell you what I 220 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: think it could be criminal. We'll talk about that when 221 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: we come back. But why are you paying attention out 222 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: there right now?

We love all of 345 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,679 Speaker 1: those stations, but we know people's lives are busy.

You'll be able 348 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 1: to do so. Okay, Iowa caucuses voting officially underway Monday. 349 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: Like I said, this is the last show we will 350 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: do where voting is not underway. 351 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 2: What do we expect. First of all, the weather is 352 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 2: going to be brutal. 353 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 1: Some of you say, well, the weather's always brutal in Iowa. 354 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: Now the weather is going to be like minus twenty 355 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: degrees potentially in some parts of Iowa. That is a 356 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: big deal in terms of potentially how many people are 357 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 1: going to turn out and what is this margin going 358 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: to be. Looking at the storylines that could come out 359 00:20:59,320 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 1: of Monday. 360 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 2: If Trump gets over fifty percent of. 361 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 1: The vote, this thing's not going to be close, and 362 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: it would be a huge vote of confidence for his 363 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,919 Speaker 1: overall campaign. He gets less than fifty percent, then I 364 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: think he's a little bit wobbly coming out of Iowa 365 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 1: given the challenges that are going to be in New Hampshire. 366 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: But really the story, barring a tremendous upset and Trump losing, 367 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: I don't think is going to be Trump. I think 368 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: the story is going to be who comes in second. 369 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: Ron DeSantis has put all his chips in the table 370 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: on Iowa. He has said I'm going to run and 371 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: be competitive in Iowa. He's focused on that ground operation. 372 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: The caucus rules a little bit different, the turnout rules different. 373 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 2: The weather is going to matter. The diehards are going 374 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 2: to show up. 375 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: So for everybody out there, if DeSantis is second and 376 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: it's a competitive second, I think they're gonna come out 377 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: of Monday and they're gonna feel really good. If Nicki 378 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 1: Haley manages to get to second, I think the DeSantis 379 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: campaign is gonna have a hard time continuing beyond Iowa. 380 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: I really do, because Nicki Haley has really put all 381 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: her chips in on New Hampshire. So if she's able 382 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: to ride rising momentum into Iowa and get that second 383 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: place finish on Monday night, she's gonna feel like it's 384 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: now a one on one race and it's her versus 385 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump in New Hampshire. And remember, no Republican candidate 386 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: since nineteen seventy six, Gerald Ford did it, has won 387 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: both Iowa and New Hampshire. So if Trump is able 388 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: to do that in a contested primary, if Trump is 389 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,199 Speaker 1: able to do that, then he will be having the 390 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: greatest success says in Iowa New Hampshire of any Republican 391 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: in over forty five years, nearly fifty years, forty eight years. 392 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 2: If my math is right, and this thing'll be over. 393 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: Eight days after Iowa is New Hampshire, we could have 394 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 1: the fastest Republican primary ever because if Trump wins Iowa, 395 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: and it would be a major upset. 396 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 2: If Trump is not. 397 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: Gonna win on Monday, seismic as big of an upset 398 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: as Trump winning in twenty sixteen would be Trump losing 399 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: in Iowa, and that would change everything. 400 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 2: Trump is a huge favorite to win Iowa. 401 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 1: If he follows it up and wins New Hampshire eight 402 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: days later, we could be sitting here and saying this 403 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: thing's over before we even. 404 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:50,199 Speaker 2: Get to February. 405 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: On the flip side, if Desantus finishes second, I think 406 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: it's actually great for Trump. 407 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 2: Some of you out there saying, what do you mean? 408 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: If DeSantis finishes second, then he has a strong argument 409 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: that he's going to. 410 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 2: Continue in this campaign. And then he. 411 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: Undercuts Nicki Haley some because Nikki Haley is probably going 412 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 1: to finish second at worst in New Hampshire. So then Trump, 413 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: regardless of how exactly Iowa New Hampshire goes, is going 414 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: to have a different person in second place in Iowa, 415 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: a different person potentially in second place in New Hampshire, 416 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: And then they're both going to argue that they're still 417 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: viable candidates going forward, and some of you out there 418 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,919 Speaker 1: saying you're ignoring Viveke. We really like Viveke. Vegas a 419 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: friend of the show. We've had Veveke nine times on 420 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:50,360 Speaker 1: this show, nine times like Ferris Bueller nine times on 421 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: this show since Buck and I took over three years ago. 422 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: We've had the Veke on five times since he had 423 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,959 Speaker 1: that he was running for president. That is more times 424 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: the Veke has been on this program than any other 425 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: Republican candidate. So some of you out there, and I 426 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: understand everybody's a part, isn't of a different person in 427 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: the Vike's organized ass off traveling around Iowa doing more events, 428 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: I think than anyone has. But if you're out there 429 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 1: right now and you're saying, well, you're not talking enough 430 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 1: about Vivake, or you're not talking enough about the Santis, Nikky, 431 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 1: Haley or Trump, I think this thing could be done 432 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: before we even get to February, and all the drama 433 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: and all the talk come Monday, nothing that we say 434 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: is going to matter. The one thing I miss from 435 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: sports is you always have games. It's always something new 436 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: to react to. There's always a scoreboard that's actually official. 437 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: All we have in politics is polls, and the polls 438 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: aren't that reliable all the time, as many of you know, 439 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: so it's relatively rare that we actually have real numbers 440 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: to look at and crunch and analyze. Legitimate votes are 441 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: going up on the board for the first time in 442 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. So all the talk, whatever I've said, 443 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:20,199 Speaker 1: whatever Buckas said, none of it matters once all of 444 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: you start going out to the polls in Iowa and 445 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: then eight days later go out to the polls in 446 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 1: New Hampshire. The beautiful thing about democracy is everybody gets 447 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: to have their voice heard. 448 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 2: Hopefully they're real people and they're actually alive. But in 449 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 2: Iowa and. 450 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: New Hampshire, all of you are going to be able 451 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: to have your voices heard, and by the time we 452 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 1: get to February, this thing may be done. But those 453 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: are the directions that things can go. As everybody is 454 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: breaking all of this down, we'll take some of your 455 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: calls to close up shop here. Appreciate all of you 456 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: who have been hanging out with us. And I can't wait. 457 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I'm super excited for Monday to 458 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: put on the television and start to watch these results 459 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: all come in and see what the story is going 460 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: to be all of you out there chirping about how 461 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 1: your candidate is and being respected enough, and they're going 462 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: to dominate DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Vivek even Trump people will 463 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 1: actually have tangible scoreboard results for what the people of 464 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 1: Iowa believe about basically a year's worth a campaigning that 465 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: has gone on in that state. I cannot wait. I 466 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: think you guys are going to be excited to watch 467 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: on Monday as well. Take your calls, close up the 468 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: Friday edition of the program eight hundred and two two 469 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,199 Speaker 1: two eight a two. You can react to anything. I 470 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: think the biggest story that has come out of the 471 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: week are the Fanny Willis revelations. And I think a 472 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: lot of people, as we were talking about, have still 473 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: not caught up to exactly how. 474 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 2: Massive this could be. 475 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: Because all it takes is one guy or gal that 476 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 1: is potentially facing criminal charges themselves and all of the 477 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:24,719 Speaker 1: conspiracy surrounding the Donald Trump law fair could blow up 478 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: in a hurry. And I think this guy, Nathan Wade, 479 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: and I think Fanny Willis, this Atlanta prosecution has gone 480 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: up and smoked this week, and I don't know that 481 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: most people have recognized it. Yet this is going to 482 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: be absolutely incredible to watch. And if you're listening to 483 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: us right now again and you're in the state of Georgia, 484 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: what in the world are you guys doing down there? 485 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: How are you not opening your own investigation into Fanny 486 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: Willis's behavior and what she did with six hundred and 487 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars of your taxpayer money that she just 488 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: gave to her boyfriend. She hired her mistress, her mister, 489 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: her jigglow, her sancho, all these different terms. They an't 490 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: applied that evenly because you were not used to women 491 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: necessarily hiring their paramore. Take your calls, will close up 492 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: shop here. I appreciate all of you hanging out with us, 493 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: and I want to tell you so we've got to break. 494 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 2: How many of you out. 495 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: There want to make sure that you preserve all your 496 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: family memories. We've come through Christmas, we've come through Thanksgiving, 497 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: New Years. I bet every single one of you out 498 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: there listening to me right now has a family holiday 499 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: experience that is deeply personal to you and preserved on 500 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: a camcorder or potentially on old photos, something that's caught 501 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: of your experience with your family you're sitting around the 502 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: Christmas tree opening the best Christmas present you ever got. 503 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: Grandma or Grandpa sitting on the couch with you by 504 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: the fire.

Rush. 538 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 7: I was a Democrat from Saint Louis, and he would 539 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 7: give me the microphone and just let me go, sometimes 540 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 7: almost for the whole show. He would just set me loose, 541 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 7: and he was actually interested in what I had to say. 542 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 7: And because I was a conservative Democrat at a loyal Democrat, 543 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 7: and only because I just all I ever saw was 544 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 7: the Rhinos side of the story, and unfortunately, I'm beginning 545 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 7: to realize that might be all there he is. And 546 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 7: Rush Limbaugh, I started watching him because I loved to 547 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 7: hate him. I was that much of a Democrat. He 548 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 7: would have voted for the Devil if he ran as 549 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 7: a Democrat until mister and Missus Saintan actually did in 550 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 7: nineteen ninety two. And up to that point, Rush didn't 551 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 7: make any sense. Aggravated me. He was on TV and 552 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 7: I would just love to watch him to hate him. 553 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 7: I love to hate him, but all of a sudden, 554 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 7: his point of view, his worldview started to creep into 555 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 7: my psyche and slap me out of my basically brainwashed 556 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 7: Democrat brain. And it was brainwashed. I started the first 557 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 7: Young Democrat club in Saint Clair County before my tenth birthday. 558 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 7: The fact that only two other children in the whole 559 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 7: county were interested in should have told me something. I 560 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 7: should have seen that trend, but I stuck with it 561 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 7: until the Clintons, and that's when I just had the 562 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 7: bail and that's when the rest started making sense to me. 563 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 7: He and Iron ran together really woke me up, and 564 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 7: I'm eternally grateful to him for that, and I'm eternally 565 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 7: grateful to him for blowing me a kiss. He singled 566 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 7: me out of a crowd at Keener Plaza on Veterans 567 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 7: Day in downtown Saint Louis. He saw me separate myself 568 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 7: from the crowd and start watching the building tops in 569 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,479 Speaker 7: the windows. I was so praid for him because I 570 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 7: know what Saint Louis is like, and he picked up 571 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 7: on that and he blew me a kiss and kind 572 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 7: of gave me a thumbs up, you know. So he 573 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 7: was always good to me, and I was a Democrat 574 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,959 Speaker 7: and I love that man. And on all the women 575 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 7: who didn't treat him right and did not refuse to 576 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 7: become aware as to how blessed they were to be. 577 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 7: Missus Rush Limbaugh, thank. 578 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 2: You for the call. 579 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 1: I will say this, one of the great luxuries that 580 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: we have, and one of the great privileges that Buck 581 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: and myself have, is we get to sit here and 582 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 1: talk to so many of you, millions of you every 583 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: week all over the country on the show that Rush Build. 584 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: But what she just hit is so important. I don't 585 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:53,439 Speaker 1: mind when people listen and they hate. I really don't 586 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: because what I have found in my career is what. 587 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 2: She just hit. 588 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: Radio is impossible to fake. There are lots of people, 589 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: you guys know this. There are lots of people on 590 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 1: television who can act their way into success because television 591 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:16,280 Speaker 1: is artificial. You put on makeup, you have an entire 592 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: crew of people there to prep you. It's not very 593 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: long lasting. There's video accompaniment. A lot of people are 594 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 1: fakers on television. Radio over time is an authenticity test. 595 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: And if you listen, and I know many of you 596 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 1: out there listening found this to be true. Over time, 597 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 1: you will decide whether you can trust someone or not, 598 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 1: and whether they're being honest with you or not, even 599 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: if you may not agree with the arguments that they're 600 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: making on that particular day. I have found what she 601 00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: just said to be true in my career, and I 602 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: bet there's a lot of you listening now now that 603 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 1: we're in the three and four years of doing this 604 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 1: show ourselves. As we continue to advance over time, if 605 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 1: you listen, a lot of people get convinced. I can't 606 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 1: tell you the number of people I come across who 607 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 1: say I used to hate you and then started to listen. 608 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: I listened a little bit more, started to recognize that 609 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:23,280 Speaker 1: you're making sense. That's how you win. It's over time. 610 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 1: You persuade one or two people every day of the 611 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,720 Speaker 1: rightness of your position, and overtime, all of those people 612 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: add up and they eventually lead to a change in 613 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: the direction the country is headed. And that, I believe 614 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: is the opportunity that Iowa has on Monday, when the 615 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: very first votes of twenty twenty four will be cast. 616 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 1: I can't wait to spend twenty twenty four with you. 617 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 1: Neither can Buck. We'll be back with you on Monday 618 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,359 Speaker 1: when the voting begins here across the nation.
