Nervous Callers Worry About Military-At-Border Optics
Oct 22, 2018
RUSH: Here is Mike in Youngstown, Ohio. Getting a call in here the first hour. Welcome, sir. How are you?
CALLER: Good. Good, Rush. And I hope you and your family’s all doing good. Listen. I think this has all the makings of a bad setup for Trump because of the optics. I don’t care if he militarizes the border, if they bum-rush the border like they did on the southern side of Mexico where they tried to stop ’em; what’s our military supposed to do? Break out batons or water hoses or tear gas? That’s just gonna look so bad that Trump is gonna take the brunt of it. What he needs to do is call the House and the Senate back into emergency session and do a national address. And put everybody’s butt on the line. Not just try a tad deal with this himself.
RUSH: So bring ’em back in for a special session to do what? Pass legislation specifically saying that this mob of 7,000 can’t come in?
CALLER: Something of that sort. I mean —
RUSH: You think Trump needs to share the burden of providing the obstacle that if Trump sends the military down and they start cracking heads and it looks bad for Trump?
CALLER: Exactly.
RUSH: So you think that’s what the actual intention here is, the people who have planned the thing?
CALLER: Exactly. And that’s where you can’t try to deal with this on his own. He needs to put everybody else’s butt on the line, get ’em on tape, on film, or whatever, what should we do. What would you like to do if they come across —
RUSH: I actually like that in a way, I like making Schumer and Pelosi stand up for letting these people in. Anyway, it’s a good point. It’s a… It’s a… I don’t wanna say dangerous situation, but it is in whole lot of different ways.
