RUSH: We looked it up. In Obama’s 2010 State of the Union, he used the pronoun “I” 105 times. Trump last night used the pronoun “I” 29 times, and the personal pronoun “we” even more than that. Obama said “I” 109 times, “I’m” 16 times, “my” 10 times, and “me” 11 times. So let’s add that up: 105 and 16 is 121, and 10 is 31, and 11 is… So 142 times Obama referred to himself in the 2010 State of the Union. Last night, Donald Trump referred to himself 29 times. They say Trump is a narcissist and they say Trump is self-focused and all of these other things.
Forty-three percent of Democrats who watched this thing last night liked it. That’s a big number.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Did you notice also Trump was applauding America last night, not himself. Trump was applauding the greatness of America, not himself. And I know this guy Jay in Fairfax. The essence of the tax cuts, he wants to talk about how meaningful it might be to people and maybe how unmeaningful to others. We’ll see.
