Limbaugh says Democrats are “trying to foment” chaos, while Trump is “interested in people who are constructive, productive, generally happy. He’s not interested in parasites, the generally miserable.”

RUSH LIMBAUGH (HOST): But I look at the Republican convention, it’s been the most diverse political convention I’ve ever seen, including Democrat conventions. And as I’ve watched it, it has occurred to me, Trump isn’t just running for reelection.

The story that is being told at the Republican National Convention is about saving America. It’s about saving America from a race war that the Democrats are out there actively trying to promote. They’re trying to foment it. They want this country to be Black versus white, immigrant versus native, male versus female. That’s what they want. They want that chaos, they want this constant us-versus-them aspect of daily life.

And Trump is making it clear that he’s interested in people who are constructive, productive, generally happy. He’s not interested in parasites, the generally miserable. He wants everybody to join in this project of making America great again — to restoring America’s greatness, where we had contentment and happiness, and people sought happiness.

The fact that all of that is controversial still amazes me.
