RUSH: Do you remember the book by Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth? Remember that bombshell book, how that was gonna bring down the Trump administration? Remember that book? And then whatever happened? Remember the New York Times or Washington Post (I forget which) published an op-ed from Anonymous that basically said, Look, there are some adults in here, and were doing everything we can to make sure this guy Trump doesnt go off and ruin things. Count on us! We cant tell you who we are.

Well, then this person writes a book, and it was gonna be a bombshell. It was gonna bring down the Trump administration. What happened to that book? And Andrew McCabe! Andrew McCabe had a bombshell book that was gonna take down Trump, and then James Comey. James Comey had his book about honor and integrity and how hes the only guy in Washington that has any, and that book was gonna take down Trump and then Avenatti.

Avenatti and Stormy Daniels and their thing was gonna take down Trump, and Avenatti was gonna be the Democrat primary nominee for president. Now hes in court on charges of defrauding clients and Nike. Not to mention books by Bob Woodward, Laurence Tribe. There have been how many anti-Trump books that have been bombshells that were going to destroy Trump? Now, I want to go back to Friday. Trump was the first sitting president to appear at the March for Life rally, and theres a point to be made about this as it relates to the impeachment trial and the ongoing shenanigans.

The Democrats are constantly on offense here and attempting to get the Republicans to slit their own throats. You gotta call witnesses! You cant do this without calling witness. You must! In the Senate, you must do your own investigation. Meanwhile, the House, as you know, didnt call any of the witnesses theyre now demanding and the Republicans had held firm, and over the weekend it didnt look I mean, you ought to see the Drive-By Media stories out there before this Bolton leak happened.

Theres a piece from Mike Allen at Axios. Youve got people on F. Chuck Todds show, on Meet the Press lamenting (sobbing), Nobody cares. Its so horrible! The Senate gallerys only half full. We cant find anybody in America who cares about it! Oh, my God. Theyre devoting every ounce of energy they got; they cant get anybody to care about it. The Senate gallery only being half full during the House managers presentation? I mean, what more do you need to know about how uncompelling the Democrats whole case and their allegations are.

And yet, despite the presidents team holding all the cards, because the House managers case is one lie after another, and it was decimated in two hours on Saturday morning by Trumps team. So the Republicans Ted Cruz is right they need to go on offense and whenever these Democrats start whining and moaning about witnesses or this other that just tell em to go pound sand. Now, what does this have to do with the March for Life rally? Well, Ill tell you what it has to do with it.

Donald Trumps the first sitting president to ever attend one. A lot of presidents appeared by video. They appeared on a video screen. A lot of presidents sent videos. But no sitting Republican president (certainly Democrat) ever actually attended it. Trump did on Friday. What happened to him? Not a thing. In fact, his stature rose, and he cemented that voting bloc even more firmly than it was already with him. But the point is, the bottom didnt fall out.

A Republican president actively participated in a pro-life rally, which had never been done before, the biggest one in Washington of the year. Now, normally Republicans think doing that kind of thing is going to kill them politically. Its gonna destroy them. (sniveling) Oh, my God, its provocative. Its unnecessary, blah, blah, blah, blah. All Trump did was benefit. But theres something else Trump did and hes been doing this his entire presidency.

Hes been teaching and show and demonstrating to Republicans, You dont have to be afraid of the media anymore. You dont have to be afraid of the Democrats and certainly you dont have to be afraid of Adam Schiff, and you dont have to be afraid of Chuck You Schumer or Harry Reid or any of the others. You dont have to be afraid of them! You dont have to be defensive. You dont have to say and do things to make half the country think youre not the bad people the Democrats say you are, which is what the Republican modus operandi has always been.

This whole business of calling witnesses, all these weak Republicans who think they want to call witnesses, its in response to Democrat demands. Its not because they actually think its necessary. Its not because they actually want to. They think theyve gotta do it because the medias demanding it and because the Democrats are demanding it. And if they dont follow through, theyre worried that the American people are gonna see em as a bunch of you know racist, sexist, bigot, homophobes, whatever the cliches are.

Trump is demonstrating that you dont have to go them the time of day, particularly when you hold the cards. The Democrats cannot get a conviction of Trump here, and the purpose for witnesses is not to get a conviction. Its to sully and dirty the Republican Party at large and President Trump in particular. There is no reason to kowtow to this, and even after the Bolton thing comes out theres no reason to waver. Theres no, Oh, my God. I guess we do need witnesses. No, you dont. You do not need to change from your instinct.

You dont need witnesses. They dont have a case, and the Bolton leak cant even be confirmed. It is a tweet from a New York Times reporter, and the New York Times in this area is widely more known for making it up and lying through their teeth about things. Throughout this entire Trump presidency when its come to any story that has to do with maybe getting rid of Trump or overturning the election results, the New York Times, the Washington Post, the mainstream media and theres no embarrassment.

These people have been wrong on every assertion. They published lies under the guise of leaks from intelligence community people, former government officials, former defense department officials. They ran the gamut, and not a single one of them was true. The Steele dossier, which was responsible for all of that? None of it was true! Trump has not committed a crime. He hasnt even committed a thought crime because theres no such thing as a thought crime, but theyre trying to impeach him on the basis of that.

I was watching Schumer today at his regularly scheduled 11 oclock-in-the-morning press conference, and he said here it is that there had been uncovered a plot to remove the ambassador. That would be Maria Yovanovitch. A plot! A plot to remove the ambassador, which is Chuck You Schumer, saying that Trump has behaved additionally in a criminal way, because weve uncovered a plot to remove the ambassador. This is Trump telling some associate, Just get rid of her. Shes in there undermining my foreign policy. Get rid of her. I dont want her in there.

He can fire any ambassador he wants, and it isnt a plot. It isnt a crime. It isnt an impeachable offense. The president, whoever he is, runs American foreign policy. If he doesnt like an ambassador Who do you think appoints the ambassadors? Shes a holdover from the Obama years! I think Trumps going out of his way trying to be gracious here, not firing in summary a bunch of political appointees like Obama did. Obama fired every U.S. attorney when he took office. George W. Bush didnt. He waited a couple years; then all hell descended on him when it happened.

But theres no plot to remove the ambassador!

Theyre trying to make it look like theres some sinister, criminal behavior in firing an ambassador. But that is an indication of how all of this is being treated. The bottom line is, you cant find a more partisan apparently, supposedly partisan and volatile issue than abortion, right? Abortion? No, Rush! Youre not supposed to bring. Dont talk about it, Rush. Dont talk about religion. Dont talk about it. Nothing to be gained, Rush. Trump is the first sitting president to attend a pro-life rally. His approval numbers are at an all-time high, not only after that, but in the midst of this impeachment fiasco.

The U.S. economy continues to roil, and the American people know it and give it five-star ratings. Record consumer sentiment. Record consumer confidence. This is the stuff the Democrats are scared to death of and angry about. Thats why they keep trying to talk about a recession looming down the road. The bottom line is: You do not die politically when you take on the Democrats. The bottom line is: You do not die politically when you take on the media. Donald Trump has demonstrated this for three years! Now, there are gonna be a lot of Republicans and maybe even some of you who would disagree.

You might say, Well, Rush, Trump hasnt died, but look at what they say about him. My God. He cant be treated fairly. Its gotta be a hellacious existence. They lie about him all the time. Yeah, and theres nothing he can do to stop it. This has been my point since Ive been doing this program. Theres nothing you can do to change what they are gonna say about us and you certainly cant do it by convincing them that were not what they think we are, because they know that were not what they think

Well, I take it back. Kathryn and I watched Bombshell over the weekend. Pfft. Folks, whatever you do, dont watch it. If I say this, its just gonna get people intrigued and want to watch, and it is an absolute It barely rises to high school-level quality of production. The only reason to watch that stupid-ass movie is to find out every cliche they think about you and me. By the way, in this movie, everybody who works at Fox News hates it. Everybody that works there everybody has to hide who they are. You know there are a lot of lesbians at Fox News! Did you know that?

They have to hide it! They cant put pictures of their partners on their desktops because otherwise management might see it and fire em. But everybody hates Fox News. My point is this. You do not die politically when you take on the Democrats and the media, and Trump has shown. It he is triumphing. Yeah, they hate him. This is exactly why! Yeah, they say mean things about him and Im sure Mitt Romney doesnt want mean things said about him as hes making himself available to be temporary president every day.

Hi, Im Mitt Romney. I think we ought to call witnesses. By the way, do you want me to be president? Ill be happy to do it. Just put me in there right now. Do whatever you want. Thats what Romneys gaming for. Its time to stand up to this! I dont care Bolton leak, Bolton book, whoever. Tell em, No witnesses! Were gonna present the rest of our case, were gonna make our case, were gonna decimate their case, and were gonna get out of here, because all of this is a bogus waste of time. And again, I ask, is our government doing anything about this virus that has come from the communist haven of China?

It doesnt appear so.
