Sep 27, 2017
RUSH: This is a montage. In addition to the media desperately trying to make everybody believe that Trump’s voter base is abandoning him because of this return, the election last night in Alabama, they’re all trying to say that San Juan and Puerto Rico is Trump’s Katrina. They are attempting to establish a narrative that Trump doesn’t care about people in duress.
They’re attempting to establish a narrative that Trump doesn’t care about Puerto Rico or the people in Puerto Rico, and they’re trying to recreate what they created during Hurricane Katrina and George W. Bush. Again, that’s all they’ve got is to go back to their greatest hits and try to play ’em again. Instead of New Orleans Katrina, this is hurricane whatever it was and Puerto Rico. And here’s a media montage where they Drive-Bys openly express their hope.
JEFF ZELENY: We’re hearing today for the first time comparisons to Katrina.
GERALDO RIVERA: This is an extremely dire situation. It’s going to become the kind of screwed up response that Katrina was.
NYDIA VELAZQUEZ: This is going to turn to be Mr. Trump’s Katrina.
KATE BOLDUAN: This could turn out to be Donald Trump’s Hurricane Katrina.
JOHN AVLON: Is Maria Donald Trump’s Katrina?
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Is this Katrina?
EUGENE ROBINSON: It could turn into Katrina or something worse than Katrina.
ADRIANO ESPAILLAT: This could be our modern day Katrina.
SHERMICHAEL SINGLETON: The Katrina moment for Donald Trump.
ERIN BURNETT: Is this his Katrina?
LUIS GUTIERREZ: I want you to think of Katrina.
BRIAN WILLIAMS: Reminiscent of a storm I covered in New Orleans a few years ago.
SUNNY HOSTIN: I hope it’s not because Puerto Rico has a lot of brown people.
RUSH: There you have it. That was Sunny Hostin. Sunny Hostin there on The View, “I hope it’s not –”
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: I saw Geraldo down in San Juan. Snerdley walked in here today and Geraldo is sitting at a place that looked like a bar at a resort down in Puerto Rico. I said, “The place must be in trouble. Geraldo’s there.”
The grim reaper has been sent. When Fox sends Geraldo somewhere, death somewhere has happened. You make book on it. And he was down there saying it’s Katrina. It’s all made up. It’s the media hoping that what they report becomes true. They’re trying to make it true. They’re all-in on it. And it isn’t going to work, either.
I wonder how long it’s gonna take for them to realize that the greatest hits from their playbook will work against a Romney or a George W. Bush or anybody else in the insider elites, but it’s not gonna work against Trump. How long is it gonna take ’em to figure this out?
