WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh Feb 21, 2020

0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:03.519
<v Speaker 1>Senior adviser to Barack Obama, Dan Phifer wrote a piece

0:00:03.520 --> 0:00:06.520
<v Speaker 1>of political telling Democrats what to do in order to

0:00:06.600 --> 0:00:09.960
<v Speaker 1>win in November, and that is, don't be like Romney

0:00:09.960 --> 0:00:13.800
<v Speaker 1>in is he Romney was the last major party nominee

0:00:13.800 --> 0:00:17.600
<v Speaker 1>who ran against an incumbent president. Pifer says that Romney's

0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:22.240
<v Speaker 1>biggest mistake was to make his campaign all about criticizing Obama.

0:00:22.680 --> 0:00:24.919
<v Speaker 1>When Romney finally got around the telling voters what he

0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:28.040
<v Speaker 1>had to offer, it was too late. So Phifer says

0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:33.680
<v Speaker 1>the Democrat nominee better not make race all about criticizing Trump.

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Pifer says that Democrats have to frame the economy with

0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:41.160
<v Speaker 1>their own narrative. He says Trump managed not to screw

0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:45.280
<v Speaker 1>up the strong economy Obama gave him, but Trump has

0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:48.560
<v Speaker 1>a big vulnerability is economic policies like the tax cuts

0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:52.840
<v Speaker 1>only benefited the rich. Yeah. I know it's completely delusional,

0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:57.200
<v Speaker 1>but this is his advice. Lastly, Fifer once Democrats or

0:00:57.280 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 1>warns them that they had better get out of the

0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Twitter bubble. He says Romney paid too much attention to Fox.

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 1>They better stop paying so much attention to what happens

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter. And he's right about that. But none of

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>it matters. False because the Democrats are going to make

0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:13.080
<v Speaker 1>the campaign about Trump no matter what. They can't help themselves.

0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:17.000
<v Speaker 1>They're obsessed. They're never giving up Twitter either, They're obsessed

0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:20.440
<v Speaker 1>with that too. Finally, they're not gonna win no matter what.

0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Take it to the bank. Count on me, don't doubt me.
