  Speaker 1: Now, this is The Mark Simone Show on 710WOR.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Well, we got a lot to get to today. Well,
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: you got another NFL owner caught with prostitutes. We'll get
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: to that. We'll get to Crazy Mom Donnie. We'll get
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: to El Sayad on Fox News last night. He may
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: have done himself a lot of good there. We'll get
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: to another victory for President Trump, Supreme Court-wise. And, hey,
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: a major, major movie theater closing. We'll get to that
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: coming up. And a whole lot more just ahead. Don't forget,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: it's 9 to noon every day. Mark Simone here. 9
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: to noon every day. It's going to be a beautiful
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: day today and tomorrow. And Thursday looks like rain. But
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: you've got two great summer days as we get towards
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: the very end of summer. The president, as he battles Iran...
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Starting another war, this time with Canada. About what? Nobody knows. Actually,
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Canada has been pretty awful to us as far as trade,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: as far as money, trade deals, all that. They're just awful.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: So the president put a 50% tariff on Canada, which
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: pretty much stops imports. And then Canada fighting back 50%
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: tax on America. They'll show us. Now, The only problem
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: is we really don't need Canada for anything economically, trade-wise.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: We can do just fine without Canada. However, Canada is
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: totally dependent on the U.S., so they can bluster all
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: they want. The president even saying now he's going to
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: rename Lake Ontario Lake America.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: He may have pulled that trick out of his bag
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: maybe a few too many times that Gulf of America,
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Gulf of Mexico, Lake America, Lake Ontario. That trick might
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: be wearing off a little, but it's still effective. It
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: still drives them nuts up there. And Carney, who's the
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Canadian prime minister, trying to sound tough, you know, really tough.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: This fall, we will begin intense discussions with the European Union,
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: the world's second largest economy, to build a much stronger
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: and deeper economic and security economy.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Now, first of all, you shouldn't do this in the
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: bathroom where you get that echo. I think that's our audio.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: But he's going to form an alliance with the European Union.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: I'll show America. We'll go join the European Union. That
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: is on the verge of total collapse, that European Union.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: It's been an absolute disaster for every country that's joined it.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: So good luck with that. Now, we can.
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: Build such unparalleled access because we're trusted, because we're reliable.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: and because we have what the world wants.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Yes, so that sounds good to Canadians, but again, European Union,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: a disaster. No good ever comes from joining that. It's
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: not much of a threat. So President Trump just toying
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: with them. Canada will eventually come to some kind of agreement. Hey, now,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: as far as Iran, we're going to destroy them economically.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: We already have pretty much. Scott Besson yesterday unveiling the
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: incredible sanctions he's putting on them. the unbelievably tough sanctions,
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: the things he's going to do to them. Now, you
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: may have watched it. I watched it. I don't know
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: what the hell he was talking about. He looked good
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: saying it. It looked like he was doing something tough,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: but I couldn't quite figure out exactly what it was.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: But most important thing is let's check the oil price
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: because these, the people that actually trade oil, the commodity people,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: they actually have to really carefully evaluate this. Is this
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: going to help? Is this going to hurt this thing? Well,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Price of oil has dropped about $ 3 already. So they
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: think it's good. The oil traders think it's a very
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: good thing, that it will be effective. He's laid out
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: a timeline. I'm not going to set timelines, but we
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: do not. Take that back. There's no timeline. All right.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: He didn't even lay out a timeline. But what are
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: they going to do? Any country that tries to help
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Iran or trade with Iran, we're going to go after them.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: We know who they are. They know who they are.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: So when the hammer of U.S. Treasury actions falls upon them,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: they will have no one to blame but themselves.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: All right. Again, he hasn't really laid out the threat, but..
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Those who stand with the United States will reap the
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: rewards of our partnership. Those who tether themselves to the
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Iranian regime should expect to share in the isolation of
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: a withering regime.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: We are spreading out across the world as we speak.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: that you will see a wave of sanctions when you
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: leave this meeting today, and you should expect that cadence
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: to continue. And I would expect that you will see
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: a major announcement of a financial institution being sanctioned by
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: the end of this week.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Pretty good. 25 minutes of threatening without ever saying what
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: the threat is. Nobody knows what it is, but he
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: sounded pretty serious about it. So it'll have some effect.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: They'll just sanction everybody doing business with them. Now, the
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: problem is that China doesn't listen to any of this.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: They're still secretly doing whatever they can for Iran, as
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: is Russia. But those neighboring countries will now stay the
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: hell out of it. Again, price of oil is dropping
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: right now, been dropping overnight. So the oil people love
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: what they're hearing. They think it's going to be Very,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: very effective.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Any entity that facilitates money laundering on behalf of Iran
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: will be removed from the U.S.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Dollar system.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: The clock just started ticking.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: All right. That's a pretty good threat. That can affect
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: a lot.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Let there be no ambiguity as to the position of
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: the United States and economic engagement of any kind with.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: This murderous regime.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Will expose those responsible to the full reach of American power.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: And to those who enable Tehran, do not discount the
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: cost of testing Washington's resolve. No nation should expect to
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: enjoy the rewards of our system while helping those who
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: seek to destroy it.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: All right, there you go. He's a pretty tough guy, Besant,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: despite the little round glasses. Very, very tough guy. And
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: that's it. He's cutting, everybody's getting cut off Now watch
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Canada jump in. Watch this carny all of a sudden
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: call one of those guys in the caves and jump in.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: So it'll be Canada and Iran against the U.S. It
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: should be pretty effective. It looks like Iran is pretty
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: much finished economically. It's just a case of totally destroying them.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: East Berlin, you remember when that fell? It was kind
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: of the same thing. It was just so destroyed economically.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: It got to the point where there was absolutely no money.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: And the soldiers weren't even getting paid. And after a
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: few months of not getting paid, the soldiers abandoned their posts.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: So expect the same thing to start happening in Iran
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: with absolutely nobody getting paid anything. Al-Sayed, this is the
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: crazy socialist running in Michigan, Dr. Abdul Sayed, he went
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: on Jesse Waters' show last night. It was a risky move,
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: but I think it paid off for him. I think
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: it looked pretty good for him. Waters was arguing, and
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: they were both battling and fighting and arguing, but El
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Sayed looked pretty good. He didn't lose his cool. He
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: stayed calm. I mean, everything he's saying is ridiculous, but
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: the problem with Waters, he didn't quite get to the
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: real heart of it. El Sayed kept coming back with, well,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: don't you want to fix the roads? Don't you want to?
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: rebuild our infrastructure, don't you? And he never quite said him.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: El-Sayed talking about taxing the rich and taxing more and
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: taking the money from the rich. And he never said
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: to him, you've already got the money. You've had the
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: money for years. The government's had the money. You just
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: spent 7 trillion this year. You waste it. You don't
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: fix the roads. You overpay for everything by 10,000% and
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: you never get anything fixed, anything done. It's not a
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: case of more revenue. It's control your spending. Now, at
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: one point he asked El-Sayed, he said, well, you know what,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: what is the federal budget every year? It was interesting.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: El-Sayed didn't know. It was like a Darlene Graham moment.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: He had no idea what we spend every year, no
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: idea what the budget is. Now, the part everybody's talking
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: about is the, how did Jesse Waters put it? Castrating
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: your child, you know, trans this and that. Jesse Waters said,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: cutting their ding-a-ling off. El-Sayed responded. People thought El-Sayed sort
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: of won this battle. So, Abdul, you're a doctor, right?
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: I am. So you think it's okay for a parent
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: to slash his kid's ding-a-ling off?
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: You think that's okay?
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: I mean, do you really want to have this conversation?
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Are you circumcised?
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, but I mean, that's a personal question, doctor.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: So you probably should want to move on.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: You probably should want to move on. Yeah, so people
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: believe El-Sayed won that argument. Nobody, it's 8 o'clock at night,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: you just ate, nobody wants to watch a discussion of
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Jesse Waters' penis. This is not a subject that should
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: be on television. But, and again, I don't think he
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: responded well enough to El-Sayed. He should have said, you're
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: talking about circumcision, that's like comparing a manicure to amputating
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: your hand. I mean, it's not the same as chopping
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: the whole thing off. And he never quite got that out.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: So El held his own, which is all you need
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: to do for the left-wing crowd. They're going to be
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: very happy with him. El-Sayed will be using the clip
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: showing you how he was very calm. He didn't lose
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: his cool. Stayed calm. Battled Jesse Waters. That'll help him
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: with his crazy baseball. And I don't know. You may
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: see him start doing more of these shows. You might
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: see El Sayad go do a few more of these shows.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: He thought he did very well, and his base will
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: love it. Hey, tonight is the runoff. They've had the runoff.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: North Carolina, the primaries tonight to decide who the nominee
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: will be. Darlene Graham, Lindsey Graham's sister. I don't think
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: she's going to have an easy time. She may not
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: win tonight because... The polls are very close. She's ahead
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: by like half a point. It's like 49 to 49.5.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: And it's not really enough. And these polls aren't that accurate.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: There's a margin of error of like three or four percent.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: It all came down this moment in the debate where
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: she really she was very honest, very sweet here, very honest.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: But she had to admit she was asked about China
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: and Taiwan. She had to admit she doesn't really know anything.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Senator, are Taiwan and the South China Sea national security
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: issues for the United States?
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: If so, why?
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, could you repeat the question? Are Taiwan and
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: the South China Sea national security issues for the United States?
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: And if so, why or how?
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to be honest here. I'm not on
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: national security. I'm not that informed on national security. But
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: I do support the military.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not a good answer. She sounds like a
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: very genuine, sweet, nice person. But you can't, if you're
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: running for the Senate, you can't say in the debate,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: you know, what's that, foreign policy? I don't know. I
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: don't follow that kind of stuff. You could say, well,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: some are arguing this might have helped her with some people.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: I don't buy this. But they're saying it might have
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: helped her because she looked like such an honest, genuine person.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: You never hear that kind of honesty from a politician. Okay, yeah.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: But on the other hand, you've just decided you're running
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: for Senate. Now, all of a sudden, you've got a
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: debate coming up in two weeks. Wouldn't you start studying
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: all this stuff? You know, if you've got a campaign team,
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: you've got these briefers. They brief you on every issue.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: And obviously, if it's the Senate, it's all foreign policy
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: and economy. So you should have been briefed on it.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: So she may have sounded very genuine and honest, but
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: she sounds kind of lazy. Like, you know, study for
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: the debate. Get ready for it. President Trump has had
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: the RNC pump a ton of money in there trying
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: to help her. He's been down there. He went down
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: there and had a big rally and campaign for her.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: He's been trying to help her.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, just so you understand, I like the other
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: people in the race also.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: They're all Trump.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, they're all Trumpers, but, you know, I endorsed her.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: I think she's great.
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: It's really in honor of her brother, and she's really
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: a very smart woman.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's helicopter noise behind him. You know, if you
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: want to really sound impressive... It's one thing to have
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: a chauffeur, a car, a driver. Have a helicopter. Make
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: a noise behind you. Just like a helicopter you're ready
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: to get on. Just helicopter noise behind you. In fact,
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: when you call somebody, have a recording of it. Just
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: play it behind you. What's that noise? I'm about to
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: get on my helicopter. It's very, very impressive. So if
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: she doesn't win, it's, what's his name, Norman, who Trump
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: can live with. It's not his first choice, but he
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: can live with her. He'll win. He'll work it out.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: In fact, they'll all be friends the next day. Hey,
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: a major movie theater is closing. We've lost all our
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: great movie theaters in New York City, in Manhattan. The
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: best one was right over there across the street, the
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Ziegfeld Theater. That was the biggest theater. It was like
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: 2,500 seats. It was a big screen. And it had
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: that super surround sound, Dolby, whatever the hell that is stuff.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: but it was an amazing theater to watch a movie.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's the biggest screen in Manhattan. That's where
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: they had all the movie premieres because you could 2,500
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: people there and it was incredible. So they closed that.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: It's now a venue. It's like a ballroom, the Ziegfeld Ballroom.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: But the other great, the second biggest theater in New
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: York is the AMC Kipps Bay. It's whatever that is,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: like 30th Street, 2nd Avenue. And it's one of those
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: AMC theaters. I went to a movie premiere there earlier
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: this year And they had redone the whole theater with
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: those incredible, the AMC is very good at this. They
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: put in these big recliner chairs. They're the most comfortable
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: chairs in the world. They got a tray on either side.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: They got all kinds of food, not just popcorn and candy.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: They got anything you want. It's amazing, these theaters. So
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: why is it closing? It was doing pretty well. Well,
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: nothing to do with its business as a theater. It
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: was doing okay. NYU Langone has bought the land. They're
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: taking over the whole thing. They're going to build a
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: massive hospital there NYU Langone, a very, very good hospital system,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: one of our finest. But they are taking over. Obviously,
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: they've got a huge, huge, huge NYU hospital facility there.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: And they've got these NYU Langone centers all over Manhattan
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: if you need to get a CAT scan or get
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: this or that. But they're building massive hospitals. There's going
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: to be one there. If you're out in Long Island,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: you see it coming. There's a huge NYU Langone facility.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: in uh already in long island and if you're in
