  Speaker 1: Mark Simone is back on 710WOR. Well, hey, we'll take
• 0:01
  Speaker 1: some calls coming up.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: 800-321-0710 is the number. 800-321-0710.
• 0:02
  Speaker 3: World Series could be over tonight.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: It's 3-0.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: I got home later last night.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: I said, oh, I'm going to watch this game. It's
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: going to be an exciting game.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: World Series.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: I turn it on.
• 0:09
  Speaker 4: 10-0 in the 7th.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: All right, it's not going to be such an exciting game.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Turns out it was the mismatch of the century. But
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: gas prices. I'm looking at that. I'm watching CNN. Look
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: at this, CNN. This is all talking about gas prices,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: gas prices, gas prices. Number one issue, gas prices. Nobody
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: has a lower approval rating with gas prices than President Trump.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: I hate to break it to CNN. There has never
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: been an election in the history of the world where
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: the number one issue was gas prices. Oh, it's an issue.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: It annoys people. especially if you're in a business where
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: you need gasoline to do your business. But it's not
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: the number one issue. It never has been. It never
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: will be. It's, again, annoying, but you don't see everybody
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: running around yelling about gas prices. It's not the number
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: one issue. Take it as a tribute to Trump. When
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: they're trying to really get him on something, all they
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: could come up with is gas prices. They don't have
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: anything else to hit him with. Otherwise, economic statistics are
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: phenomenal right now. James Carville, you remember the old James Carville,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: that lizard-looking old fossil? He was like the big Clinton
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Democratic analyst, but he's now yelling and screaming. He puts
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: out these videos where he's yelling and he's screaming at
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: progressives and Democratic socialists. He goes, you did irreparable damage.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: You've destroyed the party. You've done real damage. All right, good.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: First guy to stand up to him, but where's Schumer?
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Where's Hakeem Jeffries on all of this? Hey, let's take
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: some calls. 800-321-0710 is the number. Let's go to David
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: in California. David, how you doing?
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Hi, Mark. We were talking about the Wall Street Journal yesterday.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gotten pretty bad.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Just wanted to mention really quickly, it's always been two newspapers.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: The editorial side's been conservative and the news side has
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: been very liberal. But here's what's going on.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Well, it's gotten extremely liberal and too much fake news
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: in there lately. Too many fake stories lately.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Well, but Trump derangement syndrome has taken over the editorial side.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: But here's the key to it.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about the news side. News side. I'm talking
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: about the news side. Too many fake stories in there lately.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Right, but the way the journalists they're hiring are these
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: students that are so far left. And that's why, well,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: you see it in TV news, you see it everywhere.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Well, they don't hire students at the Wall Street Journal.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: They hire pretty experienced guys, but it's gone very left
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and they've been caught with too much fake news lately.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: You know, if you read some of these things, like the,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: believe it or not, they still have a daily news
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: in New York. Remember the daily news? They still print it.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: but it's like two interns writing it. So they just
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: put out a list, top 50 restaurants in New York.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: It's the stupidest list you've ever seen because they got
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: some 22-year-old who's getting $ 75 a week to put together
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: this list. It's not like the old days of the
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Daily News where the top people in their field are writing.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: It's just a bunch of, couple of kids writing the
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: whole thing. Let's go to Chucky in Stony Brook. Chucky,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: how you doing?
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Hey, Mark.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Mark, how are you?
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: Good to talk to you. Mark, what is on God's
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: green earth what is with Nancy Sinatra and her bashing
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: of Trump? Oh, she is, but her father would have
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: loved Donald Trump.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: He hated Trump. He hated, well, I'll tell you what, uh, Trump,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: a lot of the Trump personality is taken from Frank Sinatra.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: It's the way Frank Sinatra was in real life. When
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: you hear the way Trump talks to the reporters and
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: yells and screams at people, calls people, that was Sinatra
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: in real life. So he copied a lot of Sinatra's personality,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: a lot of it. And then, And that rubbed Mr.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: Sinatra.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: No, what happened was when he got the casinos, he
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: then decided to hire Frank Sinatra to play the Taj Mahal.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: That was the biggest thing he could do in the
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: casino world. And when he got Sinatra there, he started
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: doing all this stuff to Sinatra, nickel and diming him
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: and trying to screw around with the money. So Sinatra
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: wouldn't put up with this. So he ended up hating Trump,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: hating him.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Wow. Okay.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: I thought they were like the same personality a little bit.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Those kids, Nancy and Tina Sinatra, very nice. But they
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: grew up at Beverly Hills High School. It was kind
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: of in Hollywood. You become very left-wing. So their father
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: hated them, and they're very left, which is normal if
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: you grew up in L.A. But thanks for calling. Let's
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: go to Jerry, Greenwich, Connecticut. Jerry, how are you doing?
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: I'm doing well. Thank you, Mark. I was wondering if
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: I give a little plug to my good friend Ryan Fazio,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: my friend, to vote for him.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're in Connecticut, the governor, Ned Lamont, is
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: running for his third term. He was pretty good the
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: first term, not so hot the last term. He went
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: totally woke and left-wing. Throw him the hell out.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: I would like my friend to vote for him. I
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: like him.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to plug him, and you keep cutting me off.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to promote him. I'm trying to help you here.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: And I know Ryan Fazio. He's a great guy. He'll
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: be a terrific governor. He's a wonderful, honest, decent, common
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: sense guy. So in Connecticut, vote for Ryan Fazio for governor.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I have a sign somewhere alone. It's on North Street,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: and I hope that my friends vote for him.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question. You live on North Street.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: It's one of the most beautiful palatial streets in America.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: These people that put up the lawn signs, if you
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: drive around Connecticut, you see these lawns. What do you think,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: that a guy driving by will see a sign and go, oh,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: my God, I guess I got to switch my vote.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: I got to vote for it. Do you think the
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: lawn sign actually does anything?
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Well, I stood for President Trump. I'm 87 now, and
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: I was 85, and I stood for 11 days for
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: President Trump on North Street, cold, rain.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: All right, but I just want to say, for all
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: of you with your lawn signs, throw the lawn sign away.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: It's not helping anybody. Get out there. Call the campaign. Volunteer.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Work a phone bank. Go knock on doors. That's going
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: to help.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: At my age, I don't have the strength to do it.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: All right. But then you live on North Street. You're
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: a wealthy guy. Donate. Donate to Ryan Fazio.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: That's what I'll do. Thank you.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Thank you very much, Mark. Thanks. That's a very important thing.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: One thing about Democrats, they're like an army. They're out
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: there like commandos. Republicans, they hold cocktail parties. They put
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: up lawns. It doesn't help. It's not doing anything. Get
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: out there. Volunteer on a campaign. Go to work. Do something.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Mike in Brooklyn. Mike, how you doing?
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: Yesterday during the football game, they were airing an anti-Blakeman commercial,
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: and all these liberals could come up with is that
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: he's a Trump supporter. Nothing against policy, nothing like that.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: They just don't want you to vote for him because
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: he's a fan of Trump.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, that's a good point. You know, the other
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: thing is they did a hell of a lot of
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: opposition research on Blakeman. These dirty Democrats, the Hochul, you know,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Dirty Tactics. Boy, they did some opposition research on Blakeman.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: And you know what they came up with?
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Nothing.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: There's nothing bad about the guy. Nothing in his past.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Absolutely nothing. So the attack ads are all that he's
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: friends with Donald Trump. You know, Blakeman has been in politics.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: He's been in business for 30-something years. Of course he
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: knows Donald Trump. Blakeman was quite the well-prominent New York figure.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Everybody knows Donald Trump. So He agrees with Trump on
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: some things, and he disagrees with Trump on some big issues, too.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: But that's all they got on him. If they put
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: an ad on in Monday Night Football, that's an expensive ad.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: So if Hochul spent the money to run an attack
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: ad in Monday Night Football, that means she's panicking. It
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: means she's seen the real polls, not the fake college polls,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: but the real ones. And that's panic when you spend
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: that kind of money primetime Monday night football. That's like
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: the most watched thing of the week. So she's really,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: really worried about Blakeman then. She's even got Mom Donnie
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: out there campaigning for her.
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: When they're looking at this gubernatorial election, what they're seeing
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: is that the governor has a clear record and a
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: clear vision of making life more affordable in the nation's
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: most expensive city. And Bruce Blakeman's vision is to work
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: closer with ICE and to create a private militia in
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: Nassau County.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: The private militia, he did set up like in the
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: case of the highest emergency terrorist attack, he did put
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: together where ex-cops, ex-military that could be called in as volunteers.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: It's like they do in the, you know, a lot
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: of towns have a volunteer fire department. It's not a militia.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: And this part here.
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: When they're looking at this gubernatorial election, what they're seeing
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: is that the governor has a clear record and a
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: clear vision.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that's true. He's absolutely right. Kathy Hochul has
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: a clear record. It's not a good one, but it's clear.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: It's pretty clear when you look at it. It's a
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: terrible record. It's awful, but it's clear. It's so clear.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I've seen clear, but this is really clear. It's clear.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: She's no bail, no jail. Let the criminals out. If
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: you're here illegally and committing crimes, ICE is not allowed
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: to touch you. She's anti-law enforcement at every level. She
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: wants to tax you to death. She's the one with
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the congestion pricing and every tax rate. She's had 48
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: increases on your electric bill. She's set down fracking. She's
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: driven your electric. It's a very, very clear record. It's
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: as clear as can be. It's horrible, but, boy, is
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: it clear. uh hey we got a lot coming up
• 9:57
