Latest / Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning / Hour 3: National Debt
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, well, let's get to Ray Stagic because we've been
- 0:04Speaker 1: talking to him all morning about possible thunderstorms flooding. The
- 0:08Speaker 1: National Weather Service said yesterday that there was a possibility
- 0:13Speaker 1: of two to three inches of rain in a day
- 0:15Speaker 1: and that may have maybe they're backing off of that now,
- 0:18Speaker 1: but that's what got our attention yesterday. And it's going
- 0:22Speaker 1: to hit and it's going to hit some areas hard
- 0:24Speaker 1: according to Ray and when we talked to him earlier.
- 0:27Speaker 1: So Ray, well let's talk for yourself now, woor Weather
- 0:30Speaker 1: Channel meteorologist today. When is the I guess a lot
- 0:35Speaker 1: of people are worried about the afternoon rush. Is it
- 0:38Speaker 1: going to hit about that time?
- 0:41Speaker 2: Af your west a little bit better chance. I really
- 0:43Speaker 2: think it's going to capture most of the five burroughs
- 0:46Speaker 2: Long Island after six or seven o'clock the worst of it.
- 0:49Speaker 2: That doesn't mean we get a couple of showers thunder
- 0:51Speaker 2: showers before then, but really, and looking at some of
- 0:54Speaker 2: the latest short range models coming in the H triple
- 0:59Speaker 2: R high resolute, you should rapid refresh for all your
- 1:01Speaker 2: meteorologists out there. That looks like the timing across the
- 1:06Speaker 2: five boroughs six seven, o'clock, maybe a little bit later,
- 1:09Speaker 2: So that would be the threat for or at least
- 1:12Speaker 2: the highest of the population to the west a little
- 1:15Speaker 2: bit earlier. To the southwest, probably gonna see it after
- 1:18Speaker 2: four or five o'clock. So, yes, it will capture some
- 1:21Speaker 2: of us for the commute home. And as you'd mentioned,
- 1:24Speaker 2: could see anywhere from one to two plus inches of
- 1:26Speaker 2: rain in isolated areas. And it's not only that we're
- 1:30Speaker 2: going to get that amount of rainfall, but the rate
- 1:34Speaker 2: that the rain is coming down would mean maybe one
- 1:37Speaker 2: to two inches per hour. Now that doesn't mean that
- 1:40Speaker 2: in an hour you're going to get one to two
- 1:42Speaker 2: inches of rain. That means how fast that rain is
- 1:44Speaker 2: falling in if it did rain for an hour, that's
- 1:46Speaker 2: how much you would get. So it's gonna come quick.
- 1:48Speaker 2: Gonna come pretty quickly with the flash flooding threat too,
- 1:52Speaker 2: and then maybe even some thunderstorms, especially south with a
- 1:55Speaker 2: better chance is get down to her Seaside Heights and
- 1:58Speaker 2: some of the beach towns, even further south down near
- 2:02Speaker 2: even the Cape May and wild would and know we're
- 2:05Speaker 2: getting out of our own but that is a better
- 2:06Speaker 2: area Morristown south to Inland from New Brunswick and down
- 2:10Speaker 2: toward Trenton of severe weather. May not be surprised if
- 2:14Speaker 2: you get a severe storm in here too with some
- 2:16Speaker 2: gusty winds. But I think it's really a heavy rain
- 2:18Speaker 2: threat this evening across the city into early tonight. The
- 2:21Speaker 2: good news is it's gonna move quickly, but the bad
- 2:23Speaker 2: news is it could rain hard and there could be
- 2:26Speaker 2: some flesh fighting.
- 2:27Speaker 3: Well, Ray I did a PSA on Sunday where I
- 2:31Speaker 3: sat I copped his squat on my personal social networking.
- 2:36Speaker 3: If you get a chance, take a look at it
- 2:38Speaker 3: Instagram on Facebook, where I talked about the one hundred
- 2:42Speaker 3: and fifty thousand catch basins in New York City and
- 2:46Speaker 3: how they haven't been cleaned. They haven't the debris hasn't
- 2:50Speaker 3: been removed from inside. So based on what you would
- 2:53Speaker 3: describe me, if it does clob in New York City,
- 2:56Speaker 3: it's gonna be a lot of funning because those catch
- 2:58Speaker 3: basins you can put a stick down and the stick
- 3:02Speaker 3: doesn't even go halfway down. That's how much flotsam and
- 3:06Speaker 3: jets them and all kinds of silt from collected debris
- 3:12Speaker 3: is in there.
- 3:13Speaker 4: That's the number one reason that we have so much fooding.
- 3:17Speaker 2: Yeah, and with the record number of flash flood events
- 3:20Speaker 2: and warning existed in the month of July, that only
- 3:24Speaker 2: you know, exponentially increases the amount of that soot and
- 3:27Speaker 2: everything and all that debris that's getting into the storm drain.
- 3:30Speaker 2: So it does not help when you get even more
- 3:33Speaker 2: precipitation and more heavy rain because all that stuff comes
- 3:36Speaker 2: from places where you wouldn't expect it from, right, So
- 3:39Speaker 2: you're continuing to build that up and will continue to
- 3:41Speaker 2: have the heavy downpours producing it looks to be flash flooding,
- 3:45Speaker 2: which means it happen quickly. You won't have much time
- 3:47Speaker 2: to react to either. So if you are in the
- 3:49Speaker 2: low lying area even some of the apartments that are
- 3:51Speaker 2: prone to flooding too, have a plan of action and
- 3:55Speaker 2: whatever you do, if you do do anything where when
- 3:58Speaker 2: you're under a flash flood risk, I would take those
- 4:01Speaker 2: precautions now and certainly be prepared for what may be
- 4:04Speaker 2: coming later today.
- 4:05Speaker 1: Just to be real clear, we're just talking about flash flooding.
- 4:07Speaker 1: The people living like along the Passaic River, they don't
- 4:10Speaker 1: need to worry about.
- 4:11Speaker 2: This doesn't look like it. Certainly, if we get training
- 4:16Speaker 2: of these thunderstorms which means multiple rounds following the same
- 4:19Speaker 2: areas along the Pasaic. We may see enough of water
- 4:23Speaker 2: rise to actually see additional flooding, especially right along the river,
- 4:26Speaker 2: but right now it doesn't look like a flood risk
- 4:29Speaker 2: for area. Creeks, rivers and streams. Some of them will
- 4:32Speaker 2: run higher, but I think we've had enough time between
- 4:35Speaker 2: events that hopefully we'll keep that threat lessened. And I
- 4:38Speaker 2: think the greater one is as you mentioned for the
- 4:41Speaker 2: flash flooding, and it was normally prone areas and you know,
- 4:44Speaker 2: some if you get the heaviest of the rain, maybe
- 4:45Speaker 2: some areas that aren't even used to it.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Ray, STAGEIC WL or Weather Channel meteorologists, thanks so much. Ray,
- 4:52Speaker 1: talk to you again soon. Okay.
- 4:55Speaker 3: Natalie is off, Yeah momentarily she and and family are
- 5:00Speaker 3: up your sandbags.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Yeah, no, you know what, he calmed me down.
- 5:06Speaker 5: I guess sometimes it's good to have a meteorologist that doesn't,
- 5:09Speaker 5: you know, freak.
- 5:09Speaker 4: You out so much.
- 5:11Speaker 1: All right, okay, but I'm calm about this one.
- 5:14Speaker 3: Are all of you aware that yesterday was the birthday,
- 5:18Speaker 3: the eightieth birthday of Bill Clinton, And what a lot
- 5:22Speaker 3: of people were saying about him was he was the
- 5:25Speaker 3: last president to have a balanced budget. That was two
- 5:27Speaker 3: thousand and one. He ran a budget surplus four years
- 5:32Speaker 3: in a row, and well that hasn't happened since for
- 5:36Speaker 3: a variety of reasons. And it was announced yesterday that
- 5:39Speaker 3: we have a forty trillion dollar debt that shows no
- 5:43Speaker 3: signs of going down, and it doesn't seem that either
- 5:47Speaker 3: Democrats or Republicans are all that interested in addressing it.
- 5:51Speaker 1: Yeah, it's bipartisan. It truly is across the board, except
- 5:54Speaker 1: the Democrats are a little bit worse. Ten billion under
- 5:58Speaker 1: President Obama, nine billion under Joe Biden. But Donald Trump's
- 6:03Speaker 1: done his sharing, you know, seven billion in his first term.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Of course, he did have to deal with COVID. And
- 6:09Speaker 1: it's only it's funny to say only three point eight
- 6:14Speaker 1: trillion this second term. It just as amazing that you
- 6:19Speaker 1: can throw around these figures. But yeah, it's it doesn't
- 6:25Speaker 1: seem like anybody cares. No, that's what's incredible.
- 6:28Speaker 3: No, And you know, we look, we have to increase
- 6:32Speaker 3: our defense budget that's critical to one point five trillion
- 6:37Speaker 3: that was announced earlier by Heckshet a few weeks ago.
- 6:41Speaker 3: But social Security is number one and number two. Costs
- 6:46Speaker 3: is now the debt payment. So it used to be
- 6:49Speaker 3: obviously our defense, which is so incredibly important to not
- 6:54Speaker 3: just our welfare but all of our places where we
- 6:58Speaker 3: have military personnel around the.
- 6:59Speaker 4: World world and to our allies.
- 7:02Speaker 3: And we're just not getting enough income tax revenues or
- 7:06Speaker 3: payroll tax revenues. It's falling short, and there's nothing else
- 7:10Speaker 3: to supplement it. The President tough it. It would be
- 7:13Speaker 3: the tariffs, but that hasn't done it. So the debt
- 7:18Speaker 3: just keeps going up and up and up.
- 7:21Speaker 1: You know what the big difference is between now and
- 7:24Speaker 1: when Bill Clinton was president. He and Newton Kingridge worked together.
- 7:28Speaker 1: Do you remember that they worked so well together like
- 7:32Speaker 1: Reagan and Tip O'Neil. Now our politics is so ugly.
- 7:37Speaker 1: There's no working together, and that's the only way you
- 7:40Speaker 1: can fix a problem like the debt. And by the way,
- 7:44Speaker 1: I misspoke when I said billion a couple times instead
- 7:46Speaker 1: of trillion. I still can't wrap my head around a
- 7:49Speaker 1: trillion dollars that there's you know, trillions and trillions of
- 7:53Speaker 1: dollars forty trillion in debt. I can't even imagine that
- 7:56Speaker 1: much money. But that's what we that's what we owe.
- 8:01Speaker 1: That's not the budget. That's just what we owe.
- 8:03Speaker 3: And because we're the baby boomer generation, you got that
- 8:06Speaker 3: quiet storm, Chris, mister gen Z, we are now gonna
- 8:13Speaker 3: end up sucking up a lot of those mandatory expenses
- 8:16Speaker 3: that we paid into over the years.
- 8:18Speaker 4: And don't don't try to cut us off.
- 8:21Speaker 3: You know, Larry, the gen Zs might decide, well, we
- 8:24Speaker 3: can't afford to do that, pay so security, Medicare and
- 8:27Speaker 3: Medicaid and veterans Care. Oh yes you will, because that
- 8:31Speaker 3: was a promise made that has to be kept. They
- 8:33Speaker 3: just haven't figured out how they're going to keep that promise.
- 8:36Speaker 3: Nobody of us age out. Nobody will dare cut social Security.
- 8:40Speaker 3: That's death for a politician. That is, if anybody runs
- 8:44Speaker 3: on cut. You've seen it happen in the best. Yeah,
- 8:46Speaker 3: your career is over.
- 8:47Speaker 4: Yeah. But I don't trust the gen Zs on this one, Larry, I.
- 8:50Speaker 1: Don't trust the gen Zs on anything.
- 8:52Speaker 4: I mean, Chris.
- 8:53Speaker 3: Hasn't weighed in on this, like, oh no, I would
- 8:55Speaker 3: never do that to mommy, dad and granddad and grandma.
- 8:58Speaker 1: That's why he's so quiet, because of what he's thinking.
- 9:01Speaker 1: He's plotting our demise.
- 9:04Speaker 6: No, that's deep, man, I'm not in public office.
- 9:09Speaker 4: I can't I can't affect any of this.
- 9:11Speaker 3: But your your generation is going to have to deal
- 9:16Speaker 3: with this fiscal burden.
- 9:18Speaker 4: You know, we'll be dead, We're gonna be debt. We're
- 9:22Speaker 4: gonna be in a little.
- 9:23Speaker 3: Vose that you're looking at, you know, over your your
- 9:26Speaker 3: your fire, whatever it is you'll have in your.
- 9:30Speaker 5: You're gonna have, You're gonna have the ashes of House.
- 9:36Speaker 4: I'm honored.
- 9:36Speaker 3: I'm honored, but something has to be done because your
- 9:41Speaker 3: generation is going to have.
- 9:43Speaker 4: To deal with the results of that. Do you care
- 9:45Speaker 4: about the debt?
- 9:46Speaker 1: Yes? Oh, you're just saying yes.
- 9:50Speaker 4: I think almost every day.
- 9:52Speaker 6: I think a lot about like my future and like
- 9:55Speaker 6: finances overall, but your debt.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Do you talk do you think about the federal debt?
- 10:00Speaker 6: Well, I mean not, nobody really does it.
- 10:06Speaker 5: Embarrassed by that, It's okay, no, I don't.
- 10:08Speaker 4: I don't think about this or the federal.
- 10:09Speaker 6: Debt every day, but like I know, it eventually has
- 10:12Speaker 6: to get better.
- 10:13Speaker 1: But nobody does. I'm not just putting it. Nobody does.
- 10:16Speaker 1: Nobody's running it anymore.
- 10:18Speaker 6: Because it's not like it's a number that people say,
- 10:20Speaker 6: but it's such a high number that it almost seems
- 10:22Speaker 6: not exactly right.
- 10:23Speaker 5: And it doesn't feel like it affects you person exactly.
- 10:25Speaker 5: I understand that you see that. You like, that's not
- 10:28Speaker 5: my day to day life exactly.
- 10:30Speaker 6: I could open my phone and look at how much
- 10:31Speaker 6: money I owe my credit card I can't open you
- 10:33Speaker 6: know what I mean? Like, and I could be okay,
- 10:35Speaker 6: I could pay that off and like, yeah, two.
- 10:37Speaker 1: I get it. This used to be a big issue
- 10:41Speaker 1: that the nuke ingrich and the Republicans ran on this.
- 10:44Speaker 1: That's why they got to work with Bill Clinton on this,
- 10:46Speaker 1: and that's why they got to finally balance the budget.
- 10:48Speaker 1: When was the last time you heard of a politician saying,
- 10:50Speaker 1: we need to balance the budget?
- 10:52Speaker 4: Rosh Parot.
- 10:53Speaker 3: If he wasn't such a looney CAZONI might have become
- 10:56Speaker 3: president on this issue.
- 10:58Speaker 4: Remember he had the pie charge.
- 10:59Speaker 3: Yeah, yet deficit incoming money and such, and Americans were
- 11:04Speaker 3: like transfixed on that Bush forty one was too busy
- 11:08Speaker 3: looking at his watch, like he didn't have time for Clinton.
- 11:11Speaker 4: Clinton wrote to Victory on that. He rode to victory on.
- 11:14Speaker 1: Yeah, Well so did the Republicans. I'm not sure if
- 11:17Speaker 1: Clinton the first time ran on that. I did he
- 11:19Speaker 1: I mean, Parole made it such. Yeah, you're right.
- 11:23Speaker 3: You're right, Parole made it and we haven't dealt with
- 11:26Speaker 3: it now to his credit. You know, I oftentimes don't
- 11:29Speaker 3: say anything nice about Bill Clinton, but when he left
- 11:33Speaker 3: it was a balanced budget in two thousand and one.
- 11:36Speaker 1: He did nothing his first two years. If you want
- 11:38Speaker 1: to not give him credit, you have to say that
- 11:40Speaker 1: when the Republicans got took over the House and the Senate,
- 11:43Speaker 1: then things finally got done. Hey, a couple of records
- 11:47Speaker 1: have been set in the music industry. Will tell you
- 11:50Speaker 1: what they are coming up next. Also a chance to
- 11:53Speaker 1: see Journey coming up next.

- 12:08Speaker 4: You want how am I going to get a handle
- 12:10Speaker 4: on it?
- 12:10Speaker 3: I just heard about these additional potential flash floods seven
- 12:14Speaker 3: this summer alone since Memorial Day weekend, right, and it's
- 12:19Speaker 3: only going to get worse because of climate change. So
- 12:22Speaker 3: if you have business or businesses, whether you inherited a
- 12:26Speaker 3: mom and pop shop, now you're starting to franchise it.

- 12:37Speaker 3: go ahead, try to find your broker.
- 12:39Speaker 4: Right they're out of sight, out of mind.

- 13:30Speaker 1: When you're you know, I was gonna say what Madonna
- 13:33Speaker 1: has been doing with this new album Confessions Too, as
- 13:37Speaker 1: part of a comeback, but she never really went away.
- 13:40Speaker 1: And there's nothing that says that more than the fact
- 13:43Speaker 1: that she just broke a record. Madonna has hit number
- 13:47Speaker 1: one for females, by the way, not for males. I'll
- 13:50Speaker 1: tell you who the male is that did more. Madonna
- 13:53Speaker 1: has hit number one for the first time for a
- 13:57Speaker 1: woman on one chart five decades in a row, the
- 14:02Speaker 1: album Confessions Too hard to believe. It's the first time
- 14:06Speaker 1: she's hit number one on the Billboard two hundred. But
- 14:10Speaker 1: so she's number one on two different charts. She beats
- 14:13Speaker 1: Mariah Carey, who was number one for four decades. Guess
- 14:18Speaker 1: who has the all time record though with six decades
- 14:21Speaker 1: and he guesses before I say it. Michael Jackson, Oh MJ.
- 14:26Speaker 3: The pedophile on a pedestal, Oh my god, the Pedophile.
- 14:31Speaker 1: One other record that has been broken for females. We
- 14:36Speaker 1: talked about her before, but Ella Langley just keeps on
- 14:39Speaker 1: going with her Song of the Summer number one, not consecutive,
- 14:44Speaker 1: but for eighteen weeks in this summer. Yeah. No, it's
- 14:48Speaker 1: not a song that I listened to, but.
- 14:50Speaker 3: I could listen to it, but I wouldn't say the
- 14:54Speaker 3: Madonna song top dance song. I wouldn't say this was
- 14:57Speaker 3: a top song. I guess people are just becoming funny duddies.
- 15:01Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we're becoming thy duties specifically. But you're
- 15:04Speaker 1: right in Newark at the Prudential Center. By the way,
- 15:08Speaker 1: Ella Langley is going to be there. There are still
- 15:11Speaker 1: tickets available. Incredible, but on November tenth, by the way,
- 15:16Speaker 1: if you want to see her there, Number who has
- 15:19Speaker 1: the most She's broken a record that I can't remember
- 15:25Speaker 1: specifically what it is for weeks in a row. But
- 15:28Speaker 1: guess who has the all time record being number one
- 15:32Speaker 1: on the Billboard charts for a single for everybody just
- 15:37Speaker 1: general the biggest chart twenty two weeks, but not consecutive
- 15:44Speaker 1: Mariah Carey for all I want for Christmas? Oh no, no,
- 15:47Speaker 1: it has to be over the Rainbow. I mean every.
- 15:50Speaker 3: Time I pass gay bar or gay restaurant, they're always
- 15:54Speaker 3: playing that classic. And I mean, that's how many decades
- 15:57Speaker 3: now that that's been going on since.
- 16:00Speaker 4: Uh see, I forgot already. Who's saying that, right, Dorothy
- 16:04Speaker 4: from Wizard of Oz?
- 16:05Speaker 1: Right? Right?
- 16:06Speaker 7: Oh?
- 16:06Speaker 1: Yeah, we except I don't think they had Billboard charts
- 16:08Speaker 1: back then.
- 16:09Speaker 5: I was going to say, yeah, I think that was
- 16:11Speaker 5: on the top one hundred.
- 16:13Speaker 1: Ye know that's number one. What about sixty years now? Yeah, yeah,
- 16:18Speaker 1: we are fuddy duddies. Let's let's get a quick talk back.
- 16:23Speaker 8: And I would rather live on top of the landfill
- 16:27Speaker 8: with a nuclear power plant to one side of me
- 16:31Speaker 8: and a SuperMac security prison on the other side of me,
- 16:35Speaker 8: then live near an aid AT data center.
- 16:38Speaker 4: Wow, that jads it all.
- 16:42Speaker 1: I hope that never.
- 16:43Speaker 4: Happens to you.
- 16:44Speaker 1: I would love to see the return of the automatic.
- 16:48Speaker 9: I have such happy memories of being a child and
- 16:50Speaker 9: going in and picking what you want and putting the
- 16:53Speaker 9: coins in, which were probably happy dollars, and getting your food.
- 16:57Speaker 1: It was a great time.
- 16:59Speaker 3: Well, although we have something of that like now, because
- 17:02Speaker 3: you had that little plastic shield, you put a quarter in,
- 17:05Speaker 3: you got your sandwich, whatever you want, your chalking out.
- 17:08Speaker 3: Now we go into Dwayne Reeds CVS. We have all
- 17:11Speaker 3: the plastic shields and we have to wait like ten
- 17:13Speaker 3: or fifteen minutes for an intending to get a keto
- 17:16Speaker 3: open it up to give us something.
- 17:18Speaker 1: We have the contest coming up in a second. I
- 17:20Speaker 1: want to get one more in just because it's so
- 17:22Speaker 1: good about things they want to see come back. I
- 17:24Speaker 1: know there's one thing nobody thought of.
- 17:26Speaker 2: When I used to drive into work early in the morning.
- 17:29Speaker 1: Well not that early like.

- 18:58Speaker 12: granting roughly twenty five thou our professionals quarterly payments totaling
- 19:02Speaker 12: ten thousand dollars. It would cost a city more than
- 19:05Speaker 12: three hundred and twenty million dollars, with the Mayor's team

- 19:11Speaker 12: the administration, putting mom Donnie at odds with the United

- 20:14Speaker 1: trying to replace her brother Lindsey Graham in the Senate,
- 20:19Speaker 1: had a debate faux paw, how much is it going
- 20:22Speaker 1: to hurt her? We'll play it for you next and
- 20:24Speaker 1: our iHeartRadio Music Festival presented by Capitol One is Back,

- 21:03Speaker 3: The other night, there was the debate in South Carolina
- 21:08Speaker 3: in reference to who will be the Republican candidate that
- 21:12Speaker 3: will be in the general election to replace Lindsey Graham
- 21:16Speaker 3: who passed away. As you know, it was the idea
- 21:19Speaker 3: President Donald Trump, why not let the interim US Senator
- 21:23Speaker 3: be his sister, Darlene Graham. And then there was a
- 21:28Speaker 3: whole movement to say, no, no, no, let's make her
- 21:30Speaker 3: the permanent candidate to run for office so that she
- 21:34Speaker 3: can serve a six year term. And so she was
- 21:39Speaker 3: running against one of the Freedom Caucus candidates, long term congressman,
- 21:45Speaker 3: you know, very conservative. But then I guess it was
- 21:48Speaker 3: the question about national security, and well, it was quite
- 21:53Speaker 3: a fumble on her part.
- 21:55Speaker 9: Senator, Are Taiwan and the South China see national security
- 21:59Speaker 9: issues the United States? If so, why, I'm sorry, could
- 22:04Speaker 9: you repeat the quick our Taiwan and the South China
- 22:07Speaker 9: sea national security issues for the United States? And if so,
- 22:11Speaker 9: why or how? I'm just going to be honest to here.
- 22:15Speaker 9: I'm not on national security that I'm not that informed
- 22:18Speaker 9: on national security, so.
- 22:23Speaker 6: But I do support the military.
- 22:25Speaker 3: Ooh, you notice the crowd is showing respect because she,
- 22:30Speaker 3: you know, is the sister of the past Lindsey Graham.
- 22:33Speaker 3: But I think even they were a bit shocked at
- 22:35Speaker 3: the fact that she would say national security is not
- 22:38Speaker 3: my thing.
- 22:39Speaker 4: Pretty much.
- 22:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I got to believe that's going to cost her
- 22:42Speaker 3: in a Republican primary where even if Lindsey Graham had
- 22:46Speaker 3: been running when he was alive, many people thought in
- 22:49Speaker 3: South Carolina he wasn't conservative enough.
- 22:52Speaker 1: Yeah, but he was still going to win in South
- 22:54Speaker 1: Carolina pretty easily. And I think she is still going
- 22:59Speaker 1: to win, just be because there's such good feeling for her.
- 23:02Speaker 1: She was ahead in the bulls, but she didn't get
- 23:03Speaker 1: fifty percent in the primary. That's why there's a runoff election.
- 23:07Speaker 1: And that's what this debate was all about with Representative
- 23:10Speaker 1: Ralph Norman. And You're right, this is just not a
- 23:13Speaker 1: good answer.
- 23:14Speaker 9: I'm just going to be honest to you. I'm not
- 23:16Speaker 9: on national security that I'm not that informed on national security.
- 23:21Speaker 1: I just don't know. I don't blame her as much
- 23:25Speaker 1: as I blame her staff. Isn't there a debate prep?
- 23:28Speaker 1: How long were they prepping for this?
- 23:31Speaker 3: You know?
- 23:31Speaker 1: I that had to be on somebody that was telling going,
- 23:35Speaker 1: you've been in debates? Sure, and so you go through
- 23:39Speaker 1: and I work for a guy who was in the
- 23:41Speaker 1: Reagan debates. See he came up with the line there
- 23:45Speaker 1: you go again, and one other great line Miles Martel.
- 23:48Speaker 1: I was an intern on his book when he wrote
- 23:52Speaker 1: it about debating and the debate prep is intense. It
- 23:57Speaker 1: is imagine intense.
- 23:58Speaker 5: And so artist, Larry, I know you've been on the
- 24:04Speaker 5: other side of the debate. I don't think you've been
- 24:05Speaker 5: on the debate.
- 24:07Speaker 1: I was with the I was on the stage right exactly.
- 24:12Speaker 5: There's someone who's never been part of it at all,
- 24:15Speaker 5: like this woman, she's never been on either side. I mean,
- 24:18Speaker 5: I can't even imagine what it must have been like.
- 24:21Speaker 4: Well, I don't know how you can absorb that.
- 24:23Speaker 1: All.
- 24:23Speaker 3: I think it is just this confidence that because it's
- 24:27Speaker 3: nepotism here, and she was chosen by President Donald Trump,
- 24:31Speaker 3: who's very popular in South Carolina. You know, let's not
- 24:36Speaker 3: put too much on her plate, which is a problem
- 24:39Speaker 3: in debate preparation too, when you put too much on
- 24:42Speaker 3: somebody's plate. Now, she's she's not the only one to
- 24:45Speaker 3: fumble on Taiwan. She won't be the first nor the last,
- 24:49Speaker 3: but our own AOC all out crazy. Alexandrio Cassio Cortes,
- 24:54Speaker 3: in her first foreign visit to members of the European Union,
- 24:59Speaker 3: was asked pretty much that same question, Yeah, via reporter,
- 25:03Speaker 3: and should the US actually commit US troops to defend
- 25:07Speaker 3: Taiwan if China were to move?
- 25:11Speaker 12: You know, I think that, uh, this is such a
- 25:18Speaker 12: you know, I think that.
- 25:20Speaker 10: This is a if.
- 25:24Speaker 2: This is of course a very long standing policy of
- 25:29Speaker 2: the United States.
- 25:31Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what. I think A more honest answer
- 25:33Speaker 1: was from Graham, who said, I'm not that informed on
- 25:36Speaker 1: the istory.
- 25:37Speaker 4: You're going, what is it about Taiwan?
- 25:42Speaker 5: Seriously, if I'm prepping anyone for a debate right now,
- 25:45Speaker 5: and they're like, Okay, we're gonna talk Taiwan right now.
- 25:47Speaker 1: Well they did, you know they should have. You just said,
- 25:50Speaker 1: it's way too much to absorb it the way they
- 25:52Speaker 1: do it. It's not you just have to have an answer.
- 25:54Speaker 1: You just have to be able to say, this is
- 25:57Speaker 1: where I stand in Taiwan. That's why you see so
- 25:59Speaker 1: many people into its pivot because they can't answer the
- 26:02Speaker 1: direct question. We can ask something about it. Probably then
- 26:05Speaker 1: they go to that answer.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Probably the biggest faux pat I ever saw, because it
- 26:10Speaker 3: turned out to be an extraordinarily close election, was the
- 26:14Speaker 3: Governor of Georgia, Jimmy Carter, very bright, you know, very knowledgeable,
- 26:19Speaker 3: against the sitting president, Jerald Ford, who had been Speaker
- 26:22Speaker 3: of the House and then elevated because of Watergate and
- 26:26Speaker 3: Nixon leaving office.
- 26:28Speaker 4: Is their second.
- 26:29Speaker 3: Debate in October nineteen seventy six, and for some reason,
- 26:34Speaker 3: our commander in Chief, Gerald Ford, who might have gotten
- 26:36Speaker 3: hit in the head a few too many times when
- 26:38Speaker 3: he was wearing that leather helmet playing for the University
- 26:41Speaker 3: of Michigan, he said, there is no here.
- 26:44Speaker 4: We have it here, Yes, yes.
- 26:46Speaker 13: I don't believe, mister Franco, that the Yugoslaviians consider themselves
- 26:52Speaker 13: dominated by the Soviet Union. I don't believe that the
- 26:56Speaker 13: Roumanians consider themselves dominated by the Soviet Union. I don't
- 27:00Speaker 13: believe that the polls consider themselves dominated by the Soviet Union.
- 27:06Speaker 1: And yet they were all dominated by the Soviet Union.
- 27:10Speaker 1: But only one gap in a debate caused a candidate
- 27:14Speaker 1: to actually drop out, and that's the most famous one
- 27:17Speaker 1: of all time.
- 27:18Speaker 14: Childcare, elder care, making sure that we continue to supreme
- 27:22Speaker 14: strength in our healthcare system, making sure that we're able
- 27:25Speaker 14: to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've
- 27:30Speaker 14: been able to do with the with the COVID, I
- 27:33Speaker 14: excuse be with dealing with everything we have to do with.
- 27:39Speaker 14: Look if we finally beat Medicare.
- 27:45Speaker 1: And then Trump had the tremendous line, yes he beat
- 27:47Speaker 1: it to death.
- 27:48Speaker 3: See that's when your campaign manager, who is on the
- 27:51Speaker 3: stage or nearby, should throw in the white towel.
- 27:55Speaker 4: Much we give up? Can we redo this? Can we
- 27:58Speaker 4: come back?
- 27:58Speaker 1: Well they did actually in the white town because he
- 28:01Speaker 1: was then out of the race. That's the first time
- 28:03Speaker 1: ever for that.
- 28:04Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm telling you on these kind of issues,
- 28:07Speaker 3: especially when you're running for a national office like US Senate.
- 28:11Speaker 3: All like AOC is hinting that she'd like to do
- 28:14Speaker 3: for the presidency of the United States. These are the
- 28:17Speaker 3: kind of issues where all of a sudden you shay it.
- 28:19Speaker 3: But that's what we expect senate is to know. Yes,
- 28:22Speaker 3: Congress people more the local issues, you know, local politics rules,
- 28:26Speaker 3: but US senators, man, you really got to know your
- 28:30Speaker 3: geopolitical stuff.
- 28:31Speaker 1: I think Darlene Graham's going to get away with it.
- 28:34Speaker 1: And one of the reasons is they don't consider her
- 28:37Speaker 1: a politician. They don't consider her somebody that has to
- 28:40Speaker 1: be up on every issue. She's still learning. I mean,
- 28:43Speaker 1: she she was thrown into this because of her brother's death,
- 28:48Speaker 1: and so I think she's still gonna win. And and
- 28:50Speaker 1: by the way I went, I run immediately to all
- 28:53Speaker 1: the betting markets, you know, the prediction markets. Everybody seems
- 28:56Speaker 1: to think she's still going to win, even the people
- 28:58Speaker 1: in South Carolina. So h she may be impregnable to this.
- 29:02Speaker 3: Well up next boy, I want to be like Gene
- 29:07Speaker 3: Kelly and be dancing in the rain today if it
- 29:10Speaker 3: actually rains heavy. Because the Duke and Duchess are packing
- 29:14Speaker 3: up their bags after six years of being dead beats
- 29:17Speaker 3: here in the United States.
- 29:18Speaker 4: Prince Harry and Meghan are going back to the UK. Ufah,
- 29:22Speaker 4: get out of here.
- 29:23Speaker 3: I hate you, I don't want you here, don't come back.
- 29:28Speaker 3: Glory haliasky alalujah, back to back, belly to belly. First,
- 29:33Speaker 3: it's our national holiday, National Radio Day.
- 29:36Speaker 4: We've been celebrating all morning long. And then the icing on.
- 29:39Speaker 3: The cake was to hear that the two dead beats,
- 29:42Speaker 3: Prince Harry and Megan, after six years of hanging out
- 29:47Speaker 3: in the USA and always moaning and growing and complaining,
- 29:51Speaker 3: these dead beats, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, of
- 29:55Speaker 3: packing their bags and going back to the UK. And
- 29:58Speaker 3: that just harkens from me to say, once again, like
- 30:03Speaker 3: when the Papa and their mama came over here, up
- 30:08Speaker 3: the rebels, Easter Rising, James Conley, get the hell out
- 30:12Speaker 3: of here and never come back again.
- 30:14Speaker 4: Oh man, two great things today. Oh by the.
- 30:17Speaker 1: Way, that's funny though, because in the United Kingdom they're
- 30:19Speaker 1: saying stay away, yes, God help us, please don't come.
- 30:25Speaker 3: But you were in the throes of your up and
- 30:29Speaker 3: down all around attempt to get your son to college,
- 30:32Speaker 3: like so many other parents and relatives are trying to
- 30:35Speaker 3: get their siblings and relatives off to school for the
- 30:39Speaker 3: start of their university session. I understand you're you're like
- 30:43Speaker 3: twisting in the wind. Now, well, I think we have
- 30:46Speaker 3: it figured out. Now we've got thrown for a loop.
- 30:49Speaker 3: When we couldn't get the rental car we wanted, I
- 30:52Speaker 3: should say the rent a van. We wanted either a
- 30:54Speaker 3: mini van or we wanted a large suv. We had
- 30:58Speaker 3: a reservation on everything that they just didn't have the
- 31:00Speaker 3: car because of the incredible demand for people taking their
- 31:04Speaker 3: kids back to college. I made the reservation online and
- 31:08Speaker 3: apparently it either never made it or they just ignored
- 31:11Speaker 3: it at the local facility. So they're they're making it
- 31:15Speaker 3: up to me. But now I'm driving there and back,
- 31:18Speaker 3: so and my family. We're gonna leave early tomorrow morning
- 31:23Speaker 3: because I get up so early. I said, just get
- 31:25Speaker 3: in the car, go to sleep. By the time you
- 31:27Speaker 3: wake up, we'll be in Baltimore because we're gonna leave
- 31:31Speaker 3: that early because I get up like you straight. Calamity, Larry,
- 31:35Speaker 3: because this has been a real colliity for you so far.
- 31:39Speaker 4: You're gonna get up in the wee hours of the
- 31:41Speaker 4: morning Saturday.
- 31:42Speaker 3: Your area will probably be flooded out as we listen
- 31:45Speaker 3: to race stage and then you go into body Bag City, Baltimore,
- 31:49Speaker 3: and you're gonna stop there.
- 31:51Speaker 4: He's no, he's not going to townshend State, is he?
- 31:53Speaker 1: Oh, I'm not stopping in Baltimore. I just saying, by
- 31:56Speaker 1: the time my family wakes up, oh, rest of my
- 32:00Speaker 1: family will be in Baltimore. You know, That's what I
- 32:04Speaker 1: was telling them. I said, don't worry, just go to sleep,
- 32:06Speaker 1: and by the time you wake up, we'll be in Baltimore. No, no, no,
- 32:09Speaker 1: I'm going to wait till like.
- 32:10Speaker 3: So, once you deliver your shn do you have choch
- 32:12Speaker 3: keys and goodies that have to go with him?
- 32:15Speaker 1: Also?
- 32:15Speaker 3: Are you getting the Allied moving van that's following you.
- 32:19Speaker 1: Choch keys and goodies?
- 32:21Speaker 13: Yeah?
- 32:21Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm paying for his college.
- 32:23Speaker 5: No, you know what he has. He has a lot
- 32:25Speaker 5: of junk, probably going with them.
- 32:27Speaker 4: Too much stuff right.
- 32:28Speaker 1: Way, too much?
- 32:30Speaker 4: No, too much.
- 32:31Speaker 1: He's he's realized that too. He said, no, no, we
- 32:33Speaker 1: don't have to take as much stuff. We don't have
- 32:35Speaker 1: to think because he has so much clothes there he's
- 32:37Speaker 1: never going to use them. All he all he needs
- 32:39Speaker 1: really is his Xbox. That's what he wants more than
- 32:43Speaker 1: anything else. Oh and the scooter too that he has
- 32:46Speaker 1: to take with him. It's it's so different than when
- 32:49Speaker 1: we went. It's just so different.
- 32:51Speaker 3: The quiet storm Chrish here on loan from Mark Simona
- 32:55Speaker 3: gen Z.
- 32:55Speaker 4: Guy. That's also what he took to sheet in Hall
- 32:58Speaker 4: with him, right.
- 33:00Speaker 6: Yes, that that traveled back and forth with me whenever
- 33:03Speaker 6: when I went home every weekend, the Xbox came with me.
- 33:06Speaker 4: No, you brought it back back and forth. Oh my gosh,
- 33:09Speaker 4: I did.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Did he have his own Xbox?
- 33:11Speaker 3: No?
- 33:12Speaker 1: Oh wow?
- 33:13Speaker 6: My first two roommates didn't, my last one did.
- 33:17Speaker 3: Oh man, I'm telling you, jen Z, you have a
- 33:21Speaker 3: lot in coming with Larry's Sun. You know, maybe we
- 33:23Speaker 3: should have them hoax the program here one day in
- 33:26Speaker 3: our absence and imagine what it will be like for
- 33:30Speaker 3: Chris to actually talk to three hours of a show.
- 33:33Speaker 1: Oh no, my son's a talker. He doesn't have to
- 33:36Speaker 1: worry to do all the talking. And by the way,
- 33:39Speaker 1: I think he went to Elon because it's over sixty
- 33:42Speaker 1: percent female. That's what I'm convinced that he went to
- 33:45Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah. Don't you think he looked it up?
- 33:48Speaker 1: He told me yeah.
- 33:49Speaker 7: It's also the most gorgeous campus, the talk back of
- 33:52Speaker 7: the Morning and winner of the Kurdishly when Larry Mentee
- 33:55Speaker 7: in the Morning T Shirt had something to say about
- 33:58Speaker 7: Larry not wanting to drive up Trump to bring your
- 34:01Speaker 7: son back to college, Larry, I have.
- 34:04Speaker 4: To make fun of you.
- 34:05Speaker 3: My sixteen year old daughter can drive a pickup and
- 34:11Speaker 3: she was raised in Connecticut, so it has something to
- 34:13Speaker 3: do about being a hillbilly.
- 34:16Speaker 1: I apologize for the hillbilly comment. I shouldn't have said.
- 34:19Speaker 1: The only hillbillies work ride a.
- 34:20Speaker 4: Pickup truck, isn't it rednecks?
- 34:23Speaker 1: Rednecks, hillbilly's and everybody else in northern New Jersey? Apparently
