Rush's Timeless Wisdom - CNN Has Failed Every Day for Four Years

blown up in their face. And you know how, I know. Donald Trump is still president. Donald Trump is still in the Oval Office. He's still president, He's still calling the shots. Donald Trump is still the man with the power in Washington, d C. CNN has devoted its existence to getting Donald Trump. They have failed miserably. CNN does not have one success story to tell, and yet here they are getting up

every day and failing famously. They're failing publicly. They are failing right in front of our eyes, and they apparently don't care. They're gonna get up every day and continue to do what they're doing, which is totally embarrassing themselves. Every day there's a new blockbuster like there was nothing the day before. Every day there is a new this is it. This is the end of Donald Trump. Every day, folks, for four years, for four years, every day there has

been a new this is it for Donald Trump. And yet Donald Trump has survived every one of those days. He has survived every one of those stories and has thrived. Donald Trump has got approval numbers over fifty percent now in Rasmussen. Donald Trump has record approval numbers among African Americans. Trump's support among likely black voters has surged to forty two percent. Folks. Trump's support among likely black voters surges

to by the same token. Joe Biden's percentage of the Hispanic vote is below where Hillary Clinton's was four years ago. Biden's support among Hispanic voters dips below Hillary Clinton's. They don't have any success stories, CNN has bombed. They have failed everything they've tried, and yet they get up every day and they start every day as though nothing happened the day before, and they've got a blockbuster. Yep, they got a block every day, a brand new blockbuster that

is going to destroy Donald Trump. CNN is convinced that Trump is going to come forward and sheepishly, defensively trying to explain what's in the Woodward book. And as we so properly, cleverly illustrated earlier, what's in the Woodward book is not even new, as Trump was telling the people of this country what what words big flash is all the way back on February seven. In fact, let me grab soundbites number two, A, and three. Carl Bernstein was

Woodward's partner when they broke the Watergate story. And poor Carl. You know, Woodward doesn't write his books with Bernstein anymore. So it's it's Bob Woodward this and Bob Woodward that, and Bernstein's got nothing. Bernstein's got CNN and whatever you can drum up, and that's pretty much it. So Bernstein has a has a pattern. Whenever what were even publishes a book, then Bernstein has a way of dealing with it. Here is Bernstein talking to Brianna Keiler at CNN This

is Yesterday. Her question to Bernstein was, what are your reactions to the revelations that we're learning today about President Trump in in Woodward's book. This is one of the great presidential felonies of all time, maybe the greatest presidential felony, and we have the smoking gun tape of the president committing the felony. This is a kind of homicidal negligence. Thousands and thousands and thousands of people have lost their lives because the president put his own re election interest.

It is a dereliction of duty recorded as no other presidential dereliction of duty has been, even more so than the Nixon tapes in this instance, the facts here are even graver than in water Day. There you have it. That's what Bernstein says every time. This is worse than Watergate. This is worse than Nixon. This is worse than anything that's happened. This is a presidential felony unlike we've ever seen. We put together a montage of the way Carl Bernstein

does this. Our montage runs from December eleven all the way to July of this year. No president, including Richard Nixon, disdains fact in the way that this president elect does. The Trump presidency is worse than Watergate. What we're seeing is worse than Watergate. Keep getting asked, are there echoes of Watergate? Slow motion? Saturday night massacre, Monday night slaughter, the articles of impeachment against Richard Nixon. How similar it is to what we've seen Trump do. The two fit together,

the Nixon impeachment. This impeachment is about cover up, like in Watergate, more treacherous than Nixon. Republican leadership marched to the White House and said to Richard Nixon, you are unfit to remain in office. Something similar has got to happen, except Carl, it hasn't. It doesn't you guys, You people at CNN every day come up with a new blockbuster, and that's gonna destroy Donald Trump. And he's still there.

And you guys look like more and more bigger and bigger fools each time you try one of these things. It is phenomenal how you guys at CNN continue to embarrass yourselves every day it's something brand new, as though there was not something yesterday. Every day you tell your viewers you had just discovered some outrageous thing that Donald Trump has been doing, and you expect that thing to so outrage your viewers that Trump is history. Trump's done.

Trump has no prayer, except you've worn people out. You've been telling people for four years every day about these supposed atrocities. You've made people numb to your own reporting. You've made people numb to your own assertions. In fact, I've got something here in the stacks. Let me find this. We've got We've got audio of Jeff Zucker talking to Trump's lawyer, the rat what's his name? Cohen? Let me find this. Is it twenty six? Is it just one

sound bite? That's all it is? There's not too seven? All right, here we go. This is not Jeff Zucker runs CNN and he used to be the executive producer to Today Show, and he climbed the ladder and he's now running CNN. And what we have Tucker Carlson last night played audio of a phone call March two thousand sixteen. This is, obviously before the election. Is a phone call in March between Michael Cohen, Trump's lawyer, and Jeff Zucker. And they're talking about Zucker's desire to work with Trump

if he's elected. After Cohen says to Zucker that he should email candidate Trump about his ideas, Zucker, now let me I have to I have to say, wait, wait a second. Here, I know for a fact that Donald Trump does not email, and never has, He does not have an email address. Now, his lawyer suggesting to Cohen that he email. Suggesting to to Zucker that he emailed Trump. Cohen would have to know that Trump doesn't have an email address. I mean, if Cohen is Trump's lawyer and fixer,

he would have to know that. So Cohen telling Zucker to email Trump is akin to telling Zucker to go jump off the bridge, because there's no way you're gonna reach Trump with an email. He does not have an email address. And you know why, because emails survive emails last He has seen too many of his friends exposed. He has seen too much embarrassing stuff be dredged up

from email archives. He does not email. I know this email for me, it was a primary way of communication once I lost my hearing and I the Trump people reached out to me one day some reason for what I'm want to play golf or something, and I said, could you give an email address or I could reply, because I don't know if the president does an email, you gotta call us doesn't email. Nope, he does not have an email address. He does not. He does not have a At the point at that time they said

he didn't even have a phone. This before Twitter, So this before two thousand six or two thousand and seven. He he does not, he does not use a device for emailing. We'll obviously the iPhone didn't hit the two thousand seven, so it was after that. But they made a point of telling me that he does an email, that I asked him about it, and he doesn't, never has so anyway, here is Michael Cohen telling Zucker to

email Trump. His ideas, I'm very conscious of not putting too much in email, as you're a lawyer, as you understand, and you know, and as fond as I am of the Boss, he also has a tendency, like you know, if I call him or I email him, he then is capable of going out in his next rally and saying that we just talked, and I can't have that. If you know what I'm saying, This just two thousand sixty, and that's Jeff Zucker. That's Jeff Zucker saying I can't

afford to put anything in an email. People will discover it. I can't afford to be seen emailing the boss. I can't afford for anybody at CNN to know that I've reached out to you, Cohen. I can't afford anybody at CNN or on my audience, knowing that that I am trying to make a connection with Trump as a friend. So here's play the SoundBite again. This is Zucker after Cohen tells him the email Trump. If you want to talk to Trump about working for him, doing something with him,

you need to send him an email. I'm very conscious of not putting too much in email as you're a lawyer, as you understand, and you know, and as fond as I am of the Boss, he also has a tendency, like you know, if I call him or I email him, he then is capable of going out in his next rally and saying that we just talked, and I can't have that, if you know what I'm saying. Yeah, but Mr Zucker, you couldn't have emailed in because he didn't

have you had the email. And distuss, his assistants have email, So if if you wanted to email Trump, you had to email an assistant. And if you got to reply, what Trump would do would be right a personal response on it, like a word or two, and then they would take a picture of that and scan it and and email that back to you. But Trump would never respond in an email. He does not have an email address.

He never will have one. His assistants, I'll do. But the point here is that Zucker was kissing up here in this phone call. He wanted to be part of what Trump was doing. If Trump wins, there's more of the phone call, and this is it. Next sound by three to one hit it. I have all these proposals for him, like I want to do a weekly you know, I want to do a weekly show with him and all this stuff. When is he back in New York tomorrows?

You know? You know what you should do is who's ever around him today should just be calling him a contomy in all day so that he's gets so he's used to it, so that when he hears it from Rubio, it doesn't matter. A con man, con man and gun man. He thinks that's his name, you know. So here's Cohen advising Cohen, Zucker advising Cohen how to get ready for Rubio and up coming to me, just have everybody called him con man because that's what Ruby is going to do,

and get used to it. So here's Zucker trying to help him out planning for the debate. Now Zucker is the guy that's now running CNN, which has one objective, and that is getting rid of Donald Trump, destroying Trump, ruining Trump, his presidency and his life and his businesses. J in Alburquerque. It's great to have you with us, sir, glad you're weighted high right. My heart felt best wishes for you and Catherine in your family. And he's challenging times.

Thank you, sir, very much appreciate. Hey, you know what I told Mr. Snerdley is simply the US Donald Trump is the man for this time. And I don't care who writes or speaks whatever by whichever media. I trust Donald Trump implicitly. I know Donald Trump intuitively, instinctively. I don't know him personally like you do. But I'm telling you what I know. That guy is here to do the right thing, and he's got the guts and the brains to accomplish what he sets out to do for

this country. Rush. He's got the record, by the way, to prove that he's done it. He's got and and and you know, if you you talked earlier about digging up dirt, let's just go back to the early campaign days of two thousand fifteen, when he started introducing himself and his past to the country, and he made this comment many many times. Never drank, never smoked, never did drugs. And to this day I have not heard anyone come forward to try to refute that or say, oh, that's bs.

You know, I knew Donald when he was a pothead or whatever. None of that has ever come up because it doesn't exist, just like the rest of his crap doesn't exist and has not existed. You know, that's a that's actually a a good point. None of these allegations that they have made about Trump are true. Nobody's got any evidence for any of it. Trump, Russia, collusion, impeachment, Ukraine,

none of it. None of it, that's what. And yet CNN, like the little locomotive, they just keep getting up every day and shooting themselves in the foot and don't even know they're doing it
