  Speaker 1: Very good? What's going to happen tomorrow? Does Cuomo have
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: a chance?
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Well, let me ask you, how did we get in
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: a situation where we've got to choose between a communist,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: wacko nut job, a sleazy old politician who just resigned
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: in disgrace from his last job. And we like Curtis
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: but everybody says he can't win. How did we get
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: in this mess?
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: These are abstract questions. You know, I'm more concerned about
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: the future of the city that my daughter lives, that
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: I've spent my life visiting and a joining you know,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, does he eat this Cuomo chance or not?
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, we can consider, we can ponder the intellectual
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: ramifications of this on Wednesday, but first we got to
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: stop the communists.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Well, I can't tell you because the voter turnout is
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: like six times normal. Almost a million people have already voted.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: This is unheard of. It's going to voting will hit
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: two million, which is way beyond anything. So I think
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: the polls are all wrong. What do you think?
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I hope. So I finally got my
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: daughter out to vote. Her and her boyfriend the West
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: village to vote for Cuomo on Saturday, in the early
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: last day of the early voting. I guess and and
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: you know, she said, oh, you know, it seems it
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: doesn't seem all that bad. It's the people seem normal,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: and a lot of them seem Jewish. And I said,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: I don't think being Jewish has anything to do with it.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, what do the polls say that he's going
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: to Bendambi is going to get thirty percent of the
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Jewish vote. I mean, how insane is that?
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but you know, people say, well I saw
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: a lot of Jews people you're in a Jewish neighborhood.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Or I saw a lot of old people voted. Well,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: you're in the Upper West Side. That's old people.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: A lot of Italians voting on Staten Island.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so, uh, I don't know, but you know, you
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: understand everybody hates Cuomo. They just hate Cuomo.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: No, I understand. I hate him too, you know. I mean,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I'm still angry about changing the name of the Tappan
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: z Bridge. You know, that doesn't even show up in
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: most of the polls, but it really bugs the hell
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: out of Mace. Being from New England, I used to
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: like the Tappans going over and seeing that sign, you know, yeah,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, but the you know what about cultural appropriation.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: They took away the name of the Indians, that the Tappen,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: that's a tribe of Indians. How dare they?
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Have you ever seen this before though, where somebody everybody
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: says we must vote for the worst guy in the
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: world just to stop the totally evil guy.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Remember Roy when Edwin Edwards was running in Louisiana, you know,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: coming out of prison against David Duke that got from
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: the Klan. Yeah, and they had those bumper stickers vote
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: for the crook. It's important. Yeah, it happens. It happens.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: And you know James Michael Curley in Boston was he
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: did two terms in prison, you know, he did it
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: for a friend. That's what they said, service exitement went
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: to prison. I mean, this is this is not the
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: new Marion Barry in d C. Yeah, I mean, you
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: know they you know, I mean, but you know, Cuomo
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: is just terrible across the board, everywhere you want to look,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: he's he's terrible. But you know the thing is, it's
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: that there's the old saying the devil you know is
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: better than the devil you don't know. And I think
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I think that's what it is. I mean, I don't know.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Maybe this is just a you know, a mood point
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: that he's that man doom. He's already wont I hope not,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: But no, who knows.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: And again, the turnout is so enormous, you got to
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: figure the poles just haven't been able to measure that.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of Mondani voters, new voters, first time
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: voters usually don't get spotted by pollsters the older people.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: But has there ever been a case before, Yeah, of
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: course where the polls were totally wrong. There must have been.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, you know, there's always been that. You know,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: the George Wallace effect going going way back. People didn't
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: want to say they were for George Wallace when when
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Bradley the mayor of La the black guy was running
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: against Dukenasian. I mean, people didn't want to admit they
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: weren't voting for Bradley. He was a terrible mayor. And yeah,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: you know that's I mean, I think there's I think
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: there's been a lot of that. I I don't know.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: You know. The other thing, my daughter called me that
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the ballot is rather confusing, you know that, you know,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: almost this is a bad thing. I mean, it's it's unfortunate.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: But the further up you are on the ballot, the
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: more votes you get. It's just the way it's always been.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: And I guess Cuomo's at the very bottom. And Mamdani's
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: got two lines on the ballot, you know, because he
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: wasn't he wasn't planning on winning the primary, you know originally,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: so so that you got two places to vote from,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Mam Donnie, and they're both I had a Cuomo. I
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: mean that's another another drawback. I don't know.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's all Cuomo's fault. He was a disaster
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: in the primaries. He really stunk in the debate.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: So he is and he was and again he was
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: a terrible guy. I mean, go down the list. I mean,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: bail reform, telling, telling conservatives and pro life people, pro
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Second Amendment people they shouldn't get the hell out of
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: the state. I mean, that was a long time ago,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: and you know, and you know the sexual harassment charges.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: And the worst thing of all, of course, was the
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: COVID you know, the total mismanagement of that and then
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: attacking Trump for it, not even using those not even
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: using the hospital ships that they sent up to the
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: to the West side, to the docks. I mean, everything,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: everything about him is terrible. But I mean this is
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the you know, we don't live in a perfect world, Mark.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: This is just the latest example of it, right. I mean,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: the declient can be somewhat managed. I mean, I think
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: maybe there's a little hysteria today, you know, in that
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: poll that came out of the Post. But I mean,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: don't you hear people, I mean, I know, you're you know,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: you're so super pro New York and all that, but
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: don't you hear people talking about moving out?
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah? But hey, so many millions moved out under Cuomo's governor.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: We lost four congressional seats because of him, because of
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: people moving out.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Right, but I think this is I think, you know,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I've been thinking about this. I watched, you know, the
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: values of property skyrocket here in Palm Beach during COVID.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I think this could I think this could be a
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: bigger exodus, you know, economic flight than COVID. I really do.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: Well, then give him mom Downey credit will solve the
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: traffic problem. At least the credit. We thought that.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: We thought that in COVID. You know, the thing is
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: his his voters don't have jobs, so you know, doesn't
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: they're still going to be you know, going around carjacking
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: and going to the welfare office and going on shopliftings,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: freeze and out on Long Island. Just don't be just
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the way. I don't think traffics going to get that
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: much better.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and we don't have much time left speaking on
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Palm Beach. Mar A Lago. This was the big reopening
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: this weekend, Halloween weekend, mar Alago reopened.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Yep, he came. He came down early twelve forty was
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: my wife got caught in the traffic GM at you know,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: nine o'clock on Saturday. That's when he usually leaves to
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: go play around a golf Yeah, he's gonna be He's
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: gonna be down here a lot this weather, I think,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: and it's going to be good. It's like I like
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: hevin him here. You know it's good. It's the winter
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: white House and it's the autumn white House.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: It's pretty amazing the president. Normally, when you leave for
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: a weekend the President, you go stay at Camp David
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: in like a log camp. This guy goes to the biggest,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: most glamorous resort in the world, and then he's the
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: only president He ever comes back to the White House.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: It seems kind of dumpy compared to where he was.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: That's why he's building the ballroom. He built a big
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: ballroom in mar A Lago. Now he's going to do
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the same thing for the White House. He'd improved the
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: hell out of mar A Lago and made it, made
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: it even more valuable. I think I tend to think
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: the same thing. It's going to happen with the with
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: the ballroom. On the East wing. People just don't want
• 8:08
