Democrat Governors Will Drop Neutron Bombs on Their States to Take Out T...
[Rush Limbaugh] RUSH: We talk about the blue states and the blue state governors and their maintaining the lockdowns in their states. One of the things that we have to be concerned about in terms of getting the economy ramped up -- because Trump has a new phrase, "Transition to Greatness." Trump are is promising economic growth next year, 2021.

He promised Americans that they're gonna see some great numbers in the fourth quarter of this year. Trump is promoting a future economic recovery. It's a Transition to Greatness. "You're gonna see some great numbers in the fourth quarter, and you're gonna end up doing a great year next year," Trump was quoted by the AP. He said, "We built the greatest economy in the world. I'll do it a second time."

Now, some of the people in the Drive-By Media are saying, "Trump's new Slogan Is a Confession of Failure -- 'Transition to Greatness' is a corporate-style euphemism that tries to spin a collapse as a success." This is happening at the Atlantic, which just got through laying off a hundred people -- which Trump, by the way, touted.

So here's this bunch laying off a hundred people trying to tell us that Trump doesn't know what he's talking about, that his new slogan, Transition to Greatness, is actually a concession of failure -- that any reference to making America great again is an admission of failure. Trump's not responsible for this, any more than anybody else on that task force or any other position of authority who demanded the lockdowns.

They had to lie to him about all these computer models to get him to go along with it. All it took was one number, folks, if you remember. They told him, "If we don't anything, 2.2 million people will die." That phony model from the U.K. said 2.2 million would die. That model was done without factoring any kinds of social distancing or mitigation, and once that modeler plugged in social distancing, that 2.2 million became 500,000.

That was still out of whack. He said 500,000 people would die in the U.K. He revised that to 20,000. These models have been worthless. They have yet to be right about anything. Yet they remain quoted, and they remain consulted. Here's the thing about the blue state governors and the shutdowns, because there is one thing about this that I am worried about, and I'll admit it to you.

Our country cannot fully recover without the California and New York state economies participating, and we know it and they know it. Gavin Newsom knows it, and so does Fredo Jr. know it. Andrew Cuomo knows it. The longer they... Why do you think California and New York are not even talking about opening? California and New York say, "We're shutting down for the rest of the summer."

These birdbrains in California -- these public health officials and the city council, town council, board of supervisors, whatever -- say, "Yes. We're gonna maintain shelter-in-place through the summer, through the end of July, maybe into August." They know what they're doing. Gavin Newsom's doing the same thing, and the longer New York and California stay stagnant, the more it's going to impede the nationwide economic recovery and boost.
