That's your counterargument? Some of Rush's best friends are black???
Well bless the nappy headed little ho’s heart.careful, your racism is showing.

He has many times.You think by posting one anecdotal you tube video it’s going to erase Rush’s lifetime of racist and misogynistic comments and broadcasts. No ‘he shouldn’t have said that’ no regrets you just double down on one itty bitty sliver that you think redeems Rush and ignore the rest. Like I said earlier you deflect. On voter Id that is a solution in search of a problem there is no wide spread in person voter fraud it is a myth it’s a red herring, always has been. Election fraud, however, is very real just look at the recent North Carolina election.
Funny Republicans never talk about election fraud. If all of what the Republicans claim is true about voter fraud why have they consistently fought motor-voter laws, where registration is simply done when obtaining a driver's license?

GOP Panics Over Romney Vote
Republicans are raising the alarm that Mitt Romney ‘following his conscience’ and ‘taking his oath to God seriously’ could lead to the ruin of the GOP’s current policies.
“What next?”, asked one Republican senator. “Speaking the truth? Honouring oaths of office? Actually looking at facts?”
Romney is being excoriated by party colleagues who fear the idea of having a conscience could start a trend. Said another GOP office-holder: “We’ve worked tirelessly for three years now to rid the party of truth-tellers and fact-seekers. And now this nobody from Utah comes along and tries to destroy everything we’ve worked for.”
“After building our party upon a strong foundation of ignoring the truth, accepting lies as fact, excusing corruption, and turning a blind eye to the undermining of the Constitution and the rule of law, we Republicans will not tolerate those who think for themselves.”
Republicans who feel they are susceptible to developing a conscience have been urged to seek counselling immediately. “It’s a slippery slope,” opined one GOP leader. “It starts innocently enough. But before you know it, you stop believing the lies and the fact-less propaganda – at which point you can no longer claim to be a member of the party.”
Many Republicans balked at the notion that Mitt Romney was once a GOP presidential candidate, dismissing the idea as “fake news”.

Election fraud is very real. Just look at the rigging of the 2016 DNC primary.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren says 2016 Democratic primary was rigged
In her new book, Hacks, an excerpt of which was published Thursday by Politico, Brazile says she found concrete “proof” that the Clinton campaign stacked the deck: an August 2015 document outlining the “Joint Fund-Raising Agreement between the D.N.C., the Hillary Victory Fund, and Hillary for America” that effectively allowed Clinton to control the D.N.C.’s purse strings.

#TomPerezResign trends as 2020 Democrats accuse DNC chair of changing rules for Mike Bloomberg's benefit
Michael Bloomberg is the only candidate to give money to the DNC. They just changed their rules to let him onto the debate stage.
Here is a more nuanced look at what happened in 2016
Was the Democratic primary rigged?
‘Even for the Democratic Party, the past few weeks have been bizarre. First, Donna Brazile, the former chair of the Democratic National Committee, published excerpts of a forthcoming book in which she says that after she took over the Democratic National Committee, she investigated “whether Hillary Clinton’s team had rigged the nomination process” through the DNC, and discovered evidence that they did. “I had found my proof and it broke my heart,” she wrote.
In the aftermath of Brazile’s bombshell, Sen. Elizabeth Warren was asked if she “agree[d] with the notion that it was rigged?” “Yes,” she replied.
Within a few days, both Brazile and Warren walked their statements all the way back. Brazile now says she found “no evidence” the primary was rigged. Warren now says that though there was “some bias” within the DNC, “the overall 2016 primary process was fair.”’
Now here are some examples of what election fraud looks like.

'Wake-up call': Iowa caucus disinformation serves as warning about 2020 election
PolitiFact - Report about potential Iowa voter fraud is false
As far as Bloomberg goes here’s poliitfacts ruling on it being ‘rigged’
PolitiFact - Fact-checking Trump’s claim on Bloomberg and the DNC debate rules change
The DNC just removed the fund-raising qualifications that some candidates were complaining so much about. The DNC has made changes all along the process not just for Bloomberg and if he wants to be in the next debate he needs to score 10% in at least 4 polls. If you can't get 10% at this point in the game, you're not going to have a majority of the support in July, anyway.
I’m sure you were outraged at the RNC and state Republican chairs that refused to permit trump Republican challengers names on the primary ballot depriving the voters a choice on who they wanted to represent them in their party. Do you call that rigging, favoritism, or fraud?

‘Bombshell’: Iraqi officials say ISIS—not Iran—likely behind rocket attack Trump used to justify Suleimani assassination
In a “bombshell” revelation that calls into question one of the Trump administration’s stated justificiations for assassinating Iranian Gen. Qasem Suleimani—a move that nearly sparked a region-wide military conflict—Iraqi intelligence officials told the New York Times that they believe ISIS, not an Iran-linked militia, was likely responsible for the Dec. 27 rocket attack that killed an American contractor at an air base near Kirkuk, Iraq.
The Times reported Thursday that “Iraqi military and intelligence officials have raised doubts about who fired the rockets… saying they believe it is unlikely that the militia the United States blamed for the attack” was responsible.
The Trump administration has not released a single piece of evidence showing that the Iraqi militia Khataib Hezbollah, which has ties to Iran, was responsible for the attack on K-1. The group has denied carrying out the attack.

Do you republicans now believe it is ok to directly attack a person’s commitment to their faith and to retaliate against legally protected whistleblowers? Again please state it for the record so future Christian presidents will know they can retaliate against career civil servants and tell members of Congress their personal faith is just all fake bullsht.

The Budget and Economic Outlook: 2020 to 2030 | Congressional Budget Office
Tariffs are expected to reduce the level of real GDP by roughly 0.5 percent and raise consumer prices by 0.5 percent in 2020. As a result, tariffs are also projected to reduce average real household income by $1,277 (in 2019 dollars) in 2020,” the report said. The figure is more than double the $580 projection in last year’s CBO report.
By comparison, the median American household pays about $2,000 in federal income taxes, meaning the trade war effectively amounts to a tax hike of more than 60%.
