VOX, hmm... [:D] They've also been predicting the president's imminent end since the beginning If ever you tire of being constantly wrong, try being right for a change Just a suggestion Comey Testimony Exonerates Trump, But It Won’t Change Anything [image]https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/650-051717-Obama-Comey.jpg[/image] RUSH: He has told the Democrats and the media just enough for them to continue their narrative that Trump’s scum and a pig and violated the law, and he has given the Republicans enough ammo to take the position Trump didn’t do anything. In other words, nothing is gonna change here. When this is all over, nobody in media is gonna say, “You know what? We blew it!” Even though CNN… CNN’s gone pathological — total, total pathological — on this. And they’re gonna be pathological tomorrow, and they’re gonna be pathological tonight, because nothing today is going to result in the media or the Democrats gulping and saying, “Gee, we got this wrong.” It’s not… I mean, the evidence is there that they got it wrong. But the way Comey’s explaining it to them as though he is Sigmund Freud, able to read minds. All he has to do is just throw them some crumbs here to keep their narrative going, and that’s what he’s done, and he’s done some of that for the Republicans as well. But given that… I mean, after having said that I could eliminate all discussion on this today because there’s really nothing more to tell you. But that’s not what we’re gonna do. We’re still gonna break it down for you because it is I, El Rushbo, able to read the stitches on the fastball even now after all these many years. There are some fascinating revelations that happened today, and it’s sad that they’re not gonna change anything. Let me give you two basic things here that should end this but they won’t. James Comey admitted under oath — and we had it yesterday in the prerelease of his testimony — that Donald Trump did not ask him to stop the Russian investigation. Therefore, there is no obstruction of justice. Furthermore, President Trump acknowledged that Comey might have a legitimate investigation of other people who perhaps did collude with the Russians. When Trump was talking about “the satellites,” he means other people, and he acknowledged to Comey that, if there’s evidence somebody did something, we gotta go find it. So he was in no way attempting to stop the investigation. He wasn’t trying to shape it. He wasn’t trying to misdirect it, redirect it, and Comey admitted so today. The other thing that we have learned that ought to eliminate all of this is that Comey affirmed what was in his prerelease testimony yesterday, that Donald Trump was not a target and never has been a target of the Russian collusion investigation. Trump told the truth, even though Comey says he’s a liar. Comey came across as a whining, cowardly guy during some of his testimony here. But he admitted that he told Trump three times that Trump was not a target of the investigation. Donald Trump was understandably unhappy that Comey would not make this public. Donald Trump believed that if Comey would simply say that Trump is not a target here, that it would free Trump from the distractions and allow him to focus (and his regime to focus) on the agenda at hand. Comey had also cleared Hillary Clinton in this July 5th press conference which everybody saw, including Trump. Comey goes out there and lists her crimes and lists her violations of statute and then says, “But there’s no intent. “We couldn’t find that she intended to break the law, and therefore no reasonable prosecutor would proceed,” and then he closed the investigation. Now, the Russian investigation has not been closed. Comey said — and this is really thin. Comey said he talked about it with colleagues. And it’s really strange too. Some things he did tell colleagues and other things he didn’t, like when Trump asked him alone in the Oval Office — when Trump cleared the room — Comey says he got very frightened. He got very scared. This was unusual. He didn’t know what was going to happen, and so after the meeting he didn’t tell anybody what Trump had said, even though he was highly suspicious. Why didn’t he resign if it was that bad? Why didn’t he tell anybody when he came out of the Oval Office? Why did he get out of there alive and unbruised if he was so afraid of Trump and being alone in the room with him? Comey said that the reason he didn’t say publicly that Trump was not a target is because they had to leave room to change their minds. They had to leave open the possibility that Trump would become a target. They didn’t want to be in the position of having to correct the record. What a bogus — absolutely bogus — reason given for not announcing that the president was not a target. There’s another thing we’ve learned here. This is… It’s hard to take one thing here and say it stands above all others in things that surprise and shock me, but this one’s pretty close to the top if not the top: This damn fake, phony, made-up-out-of-thin-air Russian dossier. Well, it actually wasn’t Russian. It was written by an MI6 British agent, this totally made-up series of allegations, the golden shower dossier. This is the one where Trump supposedly rented a hotel room in Moscow used by Barack and Moochelle Obama, and he hired some prostitutes to come in there and urinate on the bed (i.e., the golden shower). We’ve learned that Comey took that seriously. We have learned prior to today that that dunderhead, John Brennan, Obama’s CIA director, took it seriously, that he thought it formed the basis of a legit investigation. This is the dossier that BuzzFeed published in toto, having to admit nobody could confirm anything in it because none of it was true. BuzzFeed says, “But we think you, the American people, need to see this just to see this kind of stuff that’s out there.” That’s not why they did it. And so we have two of the preeminent intel and investigative agencies in our country — Comey at the FBI, Brennan at the CIA — acknowledging that a bogus, fake, totally unlegit/illegitimate document formed the basis for all of this that comprises this silly soap opera that we’ve been subjected to as a nation for the last nine months. That’s got to be at the top of the list of things that boggles the mind the most. I also think this. I think, after listening to Comey today — and this has been an experience for me. The guy’s admitted that maybe he didn’t have enough courage to stand up to Trump. He maybe was a little scared. The guy runs the freaking FBI! He’s the FBI director! At any rate, this entire thing I think is rooted in the fact that Donald Trump speaks a foreign language from what is spoken in Washington. Trump shows up in Washington, and he speaks the way he speaks. He can be New York tough guy. He can be standard, ordinary, everyday American male. But one thing Trump is not is precise and careful and defensive and politically correct, and everybody in Washington is. Everybody in Washington speaks completely on the defensive. Everybody in Washington has a bit of victimhood in them, and so the way they speak in many ways is designed to evoke sympathy, but you don’t have a lot of tough talkers in that town. That’s why when you encounter one they stand out so much. So Trump shows up, he invites Comey into the Oval Office, and Comey starts quaking in his boots (hyperventilating), “What does he want? What does he want? What does…? Oh, God! Oh, God!” And Trump says (paraphrased), “I hope you can let this Flynn thing go.” And what does Comey hear? Well, you’ll hear in the audio sound bites. Comey heard all kinds of things that Trump didn’t say. That’s why Comey says, “Well, not with his words, Senator. No, not — not in his words.” Well, what the hell else was going on in there? Are you a mind reader? Look, I’m serious, folks. (interruption) What? I think they speak different languages. Comey is admitting he has to try to read minds here to understand what Trump is saying. So you have an admitted coward and somebody who’s admittedly afraid to be alone in a room with the guy now trying to tell us what Trump really meant. I don’t think — and Donald Trump Jr. has tweeted this. I don’t think anybody who’s ever talked to Donald Trump has ever not understood what the guy means.
