• 0:00
  Speaker 1: This is seven R Boy. The Mark Simong Show starts. Now. Well,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: President is in Davos as we speak. He's speaking in Davos.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Actually he's done with the speech, but doing a little
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: question to answer. We'll get to Davos. We'll get to
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: his speech. We'll get to Ice Holman, Obama, We'll get
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: to Minnesota. Who's going to get arrested there? Who's under investigation?
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Now the Clintons have a legal problem. They are in
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: legal jeopardy at the moment. We'll find out later today.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: We'll get to that. We'll get to mom Donnie. We'll
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: get to New Jersey. Noll, what's wrong with you people
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: in New Jersey? Do you look at the governors you elect.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: It's a big state. You got all these people to
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: choose for me, you see the people you elect as governor.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Will get to that and more coming up. Well, now
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: President Trump is supposed to go to Davos. You know,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: it's been a grueling week for him. Remember the football
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: When was the college football championship? That was Monday night? Right, Yeah,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: So Monday night he flies to that in Miami. He
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: gets home late, doesn't get much sleep. Tuesday night he's
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: up tweeting all night, and then that was last night.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: And then remember yesterday, Big day, and he did a
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: grueling ninety four minute press conference yesterday. And after all
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: of that he leaves for Davos. They get on air
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Force one. They're heading to Davos, Switzerland. On the way there,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: the electrical system has all kinds of problems. The lights
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: go out at one point, something's wrong with the electrical
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: system in the plane. This is air Force one. They
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: decide they have to turn around and go back to
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Washington and switch planes. There's another air Force one. It's
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: actually two planes, and they go back. They have to
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: switch to the other plane. And I remember these air
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Force one planes are like forty five years old. They're very,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: very old planes. They need to be replaced. In his
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: first term, President Trump worked out a great contract with
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Boeing at an incredible price to get new air Force ones.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: But they're not ready yet. This is how many years later,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: five six years later, still working on them. And remember
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Cutter donated that incredible seven forty seven eight like jumbo,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: even better than air Force one plane. But that's still
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: not finished. We took a possession of it and it's
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: at Boeing. It's got to be fitted with all the
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Air Force one stuff and the security and all that.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: It's still not finished. Takes years to do this stuff
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: in these planes. So then the president left. Now they
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: were able to speed up. You can actually do that,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: you know, even a regular plane that you're flying on.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: You know, we're cruising at five hundred miles and well
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: they can actually crank it up to eight hundred nine
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: hundred if they have to. Every flight would be half
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: the time. Now you say, why don't they do that,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: because you'd burn a lot more fuel and it would
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: cost them twice as much to fly the plane. But
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: he got there, still got there a couple hours late,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: but somehow the speech started on time. The big headline
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: of the speech he did say, as far as Greenland,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: he would not use force. He will not use force
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: in any way. And I was just negotiating. And he
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: did point out, you know all this green Land stuff.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of people that act like, what
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: a crazy idea? What is this with him in Greenland?
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Where the hell did he come up with this? Well,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: this is every president. This is not a new idea.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Every president since Abraham Lincoln has wanted to get Greenland,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: and we have tried in the past six times to
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: buy Greenland. In the past, the most serious effort was
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: probably Harry Truman, who really really wanted it badly, but
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: didn't get it done. We actually captured Greenland in our
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: World War two victory, but we immediately gave it back.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Kind of a stupid thing there. But I think he
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: will be the first president. A lot of presidents have
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: tried to get Greenland. He'll be the first to get
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: it done. It's vital, really important for strategic reasons, military reasons,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: and if we ever want to do that Golden Dome
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: to protect us from missiles, it's crucial to doing that.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: It's a really big deal militarily. So he'll get it done.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: He's got another three years. He'll get it done before
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: he's done. So he did kind of lecture the Europeans.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Now this Davos used to be, you know, all about
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: climate change and green and woke and left wing. That's
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: all gone now Davos doesn't do that anymore. That was
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: the founder, the guy that ran at Klaus Schwab. He
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: had to leave in scandal last year. So it's now
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: the new chairman is the head of black Rock a
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: hedge fund. So now it's strictly an economic forum. There's
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: no left wing stuff, there's no green stuff. But Trump
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: did throw a little of that in there, and you know,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: kind of ridiculed the Europeans because over the last few
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: years they got involved in windmills and green energy and
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: it all failed miserably. They weren't able to get any power,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: enough power out of it. Most of the time there
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: wasn't enough wind. And if you did get any power
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: from the green energy, it costs like five times as
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: much as the fossil fuels did. It was an absolute disaster.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: And these countries that went windmills, like Germany and others,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: had to rip them all out and go back to
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: the regular stuff. He did point that out to them.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: They weren't too thrilled to hear it, but he did
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: point it out to them. Now, well, the other thing
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I forgot to mention, keep an eye on this weekend.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: There's a threat of a big snowstorm this weekend that
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: could begin Saturday night or Sunday morning and then go
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: through until Monday morning. Now it could be four inches,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: some models suggest double digits. It'd be a major blizzard.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: But we'll see way too early to be sure. Most
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: meteorologists now are leading towards the four inch model. But again,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: what's today Wednesday forecast is really only good for about
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: three days. You know they always give you here's a
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: five day forecast. Well, secretly they all realized forecasts really
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: only hold up for three days. So still too early
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: to tell, but just bear that in mind for this weekend.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: And if even if there isn't a lot of snow,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: it's going to be unbelievably cold at night, it'll go
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: down to like seven degrees. So just remember that for
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: this weekend. Hey, in Minnesota, expect now there's investigations going on.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Tim Waltz, the governor, Mayor Fry that Sleesball, dirty Attorney
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: General Ellison. They've all been hit with subpoenas to turn
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: over evidence, communications, all sorts of stuff. They're being looked out,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: looked at for conspiracy to harass and obstruct ice the
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: people that went into the church and stopped the service
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: in church and disrupted it. Expect them to get indicted.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: That could happen very soon. It's a clear violation of law.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: The losses. You cannot enter a house of worship of
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: any kind and intimidate or interrupt a service. You can't do.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: It's illegal, it's a crime. So expect them to get arrested.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Expect Don Lemon most likely to be included in those arrests.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Now here's the amazing thing that nobody seems to well.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: I mean you'll see it here and there, but not
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: enough people focus on it. The idea that you would
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: send ICE into American cities and that they would grab
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: people off the streets and arrest people. You know, pull
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: up in cars and grab people and throw them in
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: the car and take them away and then deport them.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: The idea of this comes from Barack Obama. It was
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: his operation. He did this in his administration. He had
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: ICE go into American cities, grab people off the streets, illegals,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: and we're especially looking for illegals who had committed crimes.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: They would grab them, sweep them up, support them, throw
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: them the hell out. Now who did Obama put in
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: charge of this operation? Who did he have run this operation? Well,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: it was Tom Homan. And if you look at my
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Twitter you can see some pictures that are pretty good.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Homan did such a great job. They were able to
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: arrest about two million illegals and deport them. This is
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Obama and Homan did such a good job running this operation.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: It's on my Twitter. You can see the picture of
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Barack Obama awarding Homan with this special medal, putting the
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: medal around his neck, this Distinguished Service Presidential award. And
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Obama was very proud of this operation. We go on
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: TV all the time and talk about how they were
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: swiping up illegals off the street. Ice was out there.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Obama loved to brag about it. If you're a criminal,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: you'll be deported. If you plan to enter the US illegally,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: your chances of getting caught and sent back just went up.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: The actions I'm taking are not only lawful, are the
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: kinds of actions taken by every single Republican president and
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: every single Democratic president for the past half century. And
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: what a Democrats do doing all this nothing. They liked it.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: They like it was Obama great, they loved it. I
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: gotta be honest. You're Democrats. You are the nuttiest party
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: I have ever seen. There's something that's just fine with you.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: You love it. It's great. Then as soon as Trump
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: does it, you're out in the streets. Screaming and yelling like,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: what the hell give Republicans credit for one thing. You
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: can go back five years, ten years, fifteen years. They
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: pretty much stand for the same principles Democrats. You go
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: back five years there for something totally different. You go
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: back twenty years, they're completely the opposite. Totally. They just
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: keep flip flopping. And now all this video of Obama
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: praising Ice and bragging about how they're in the streets
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: in our cities, arresting illegals, rounding them up. All that
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: video of him doing that, A lot of people think
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: somebody should put that together and run that as a
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: commercial during the super Bowl, and then ended with the
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: video of him putting the metal around Tom Holman's neck.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: It would be a great idea. We got a lot
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: of very wealthy donor types listening. If one of you
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: would do that, it's a good idea. Run that during
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the super Bowl. I'm sure the President has heard of
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: this idea. Maybe he can get somebody to do it.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: The Clinton's got a big problem. He had a big,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: huge problem. They've been called to testify before the committee
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: on Jeffrey Epstein. Now nobody was closer to Epstein than
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: the Clintons. Nobody was more tangled up with Epstein than
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: the Clintons, And I don't think I had anything to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: do with any young girls, but they were very heavily
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: involved with Epstein financially, business wise, all sorts of stuff.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: It was Epstein that helped start the Clinton Global Initiative.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: You could have called it the Clinton Epstein Global Initiative.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: And I'm sure Bill there were a lot of women there. Now,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: one thing about Epstein, if you were around back then
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: at those parties and all that stuff, it wasn't just
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: young girls. He had a lot of young girls there
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: because that's what he liked. And I'm sure some of
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: his friends might have liked that. But for the most part,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: it was whatever you wanted. Bill Clinton loved forty year
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: old floozies. Epstein had a lot of them. Bill Gates
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: like those mousey librarian types. Epstein had a lot of
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: them around. So it was whatever you like. But Congress
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: has subpoenaed the Clintons to testify in front of the
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: committee closed door hearing, but the Clintons refused. They defied
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: the subpoena, which is highly illegal. You're not allowed to
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: just defy congressional subpoenas. Now, Steve Bannon did that, he
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: was sent to prison. Peter Navarro did that, he was
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: sent to prison. This is the Merrick Garland Joe Biden's standard.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: So the Clintons could be convicted of defying Congress. Now,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know what will happen, but they're taking the
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: vote today on whether to refer this for criminal charges.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: The Clintons still refuse to testify. They've sent word through
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: their attorneys that they could offer a written statement. They
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: might be willing to do a video that they would
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: send in. This is not good enough. You can't defy
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: the congressional subpoena. But again it's Democrats. You pay pill
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: change your whole philosophy principles every two seconds. Now, back
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, you had to go to
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: prison immediately if you defied a congressional subpoena, just like
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Bannon did. But of course, if you go back to
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: the Obama era when Eric Holder defied the subpoena, no,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: it's okay. Again it's Democrats. They flip blop all over
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: the place. But it looks different this time. When they
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: take the vote today, Republicans will vote to have criminal
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: charges against the Clintons. It looks like a lot of
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Democrats might vote for that too. Now you said, well,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: why would they have a fellow Democrat. Why would they Well,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: because they don't really take Bill Clinton seriously anymore. They
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: don't think of him as a big fellow Democrat. They
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: think of him as an old dinosaur relic from the past.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: These are today's Democrats. They're not Bill Clinton fans. He's
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: a totally different animal than today's Democrats. So Clinton's very
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: worried about this vote today. Keep an eye on it.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Anything could happen. Mom Donnie was on the View yesterday,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: but it was perfect for him. You got these you know,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: four clucking hands and Mom Donnie sitting there, and these
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: are not the brightest women on the View. That's not
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: exactly the high IQ show. And you know, Mom Donnie
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: can talk very fast, and he's a very articular guy.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Or you took a mile in a minute, and these
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: view people they can't really keep up with him. But
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: they were asking him all the standard you know, Minnesota.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: People ask me why did I say the word murder?
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: I asked him to look at that video and tell
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: me what they would call it, and we are being
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: asked to not believe our own eyes. It's time to
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: be truthful with people. It is terrifying to see what's
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: happening there, and it's terrifying to see all of this
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: happening in the name of public safety. And I've said
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: this directly to the President that these ice rates, they
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: are cruel, they're inhumane, They do nothing to deliver that
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: public safety. In fact, what they do is leave a
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: sense of fear amongst so many.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Well, first of all, there is no court anywhere in
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: the world that would call this murder. This cop, no
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: matter where you send him to trial, could not be
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: convicted of murder. By law. It's not murder in any way.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: If he drives your car into an ice agent, if
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: you even drive at him, he is legally allowed to fire.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Now you could find and I have there's some police
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: officials who've actually said, you know, he didn't have to fire.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: He's legally entitled to, but he really could have let
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: that go. You know, they just let it go, and
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: they'll catch him up and catch her two blocks away.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: There's some cops that will argue that put top ranking cops.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: But no matter what he was legally, okay, firing a
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: gun at that moment, no way, that's murder. And then
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: you get this, like Mamdani said to he said to them,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: it just makes people less safe. And this is the view.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: They're all nodding like babo hash But if you think
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: about it, they've taken two thousand actual criminals out of Minneapolis,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: and at the press conference yesterday, the president started holding
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: up pictures of each one and their rap sheet. You know,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: this one raped the kids, this one's a murderer, this
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: one's a robed. You go through this list of what
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: they took off the streets, there's no way you can
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: argue that's less safe. That's the whole idea that when
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: you take two thousand criminals off the streets of a city,
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be safer. And you know what's funny, the
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Democrats now have this policy when you arrest the criminal,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: you arrest him, you take him in, and he gets
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: out like a half hour later. There's no bail, there's
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: no jail. Thanks to Andrew Cuomo and all these Democrats,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: you just let them go, you let them out. So
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: apparently in Minnesota, a lot of these illegal aliens, they
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: don't really understand different types of police. To them, ice
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: are just other policeman. So when they're taken in and
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: held and not let go, apparently a lot of them
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: are screaming at everybody in the court, what the hell's
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: going on here? I'm supposed to be out in an hour.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: They've they've been arrested a million times, but they've never
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: actually been held and not released. So apparently some of
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: them are going crazy because they've never seen anything like

• 16:54
  Speaker 5: days was cold, and I've fallen into that ex New
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: Yorker thing where goosmos.

  Speaker 1: I'm chilli now, Yeah, when you guys say cold, what

  Speaker 5: It was forty yesterday morning when I woke up forty
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: five ish, and uh it, you know, warms up pretty well,
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: but once I get that.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Chill, Yeah, that's terrible, sir. You're right, yeah, anyway, you know, uh,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: what do you want to what do you want to?
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: No, you were mentioning about how the Democrats, you know, constantly,
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: you know, change their positions, and it's absolutely right, you know,
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: because they're interested in winning whatever victory it is, whether
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: it's a little one or a big one, they'll take it.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: The Republicans can't be bothered, you know. And to illustrate
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: that for the last two days now, you said, you know,
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: Trump had a ninety minute press conference yesterday, you spoke
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: for an hour at Davos, he said, taking questions, he
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: talks about, yes, presses on Air Force one, and Republican
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: pundits and comments will say he doesn't get the message out.
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: He just doesn't get the message out.
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: I'm going, I don't understand.
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: What aren't they hearing that I'm hearing twenty four hours
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: a day virtually.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: Oh, you know, for most Americans, they're not following this
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: all day and night. They were just watching the evening
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: news or whatever, and the message is never put there.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: But you're right, but they they got to figure out
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: a way around that. That's why I like the idea
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: of the super Bowl commercial with Obama talking about how
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: we have to send ice into the cities and round
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: people up. And I've appointed Tom Holman to run this.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Ron in Pittsburgh. Ron, how you.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: Doing a I, sir?
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: I good.

• 18:34
  Speaker 3: give you the name of my band for the president.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: He's a very nice guy, but he's got one of
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: these garage bands he's trying to promote.
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: No, I don't we're good with veterans. The names Honky
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: Talk Heroes were on Facebook.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Wait, what's the name the Honkey Talk Heroes? The Honky
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: TNK Heroes. Yes, sir, god, I'd like to know the
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: names you rejected. That's the one you choose. What came
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: in second place for a name?
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: Love comes in spurts?
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Hey, sorry, you play better than your name?
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: Hey?
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: Can I we do? Hey?
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: Could I ask you a nice question?
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: Hey?
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: Don't you believe they're all these democrats are all just sellouts.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I think I think I just sold our country out
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: for the cash. Hey, but one other questions. One of
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: the questions, okay, can you ask his Trump's upper President
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Trump's upper flat around? Is the world flat?
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: You know that day drinking is not a good thing.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: I'm about drinking?
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Is that happy hour there at ten in the morning
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh? Anyway? Thanks for calling. Let's go to uh
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Andrew and Queen's Andrew. How you doing, Andrew? Yes, yeah,
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: we didn't wake you.
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: That there was a black hole there.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go Andrew call.
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I wanted to ask you. I recall I
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: thought decades ago during protests they used water cannons. Is
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: their problem using water cannons nowadays?
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah? You mean on those left wing wacos in Minnesota.
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah, or wherever, you know, the pro Haomas demonstrations and well.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: You know, they used to use those water cannons on protesters. Now,
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: those were good protesters back then. This is in the South,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: in the early sixties to Kennedy days. They were racist,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: protesting against black students and all that. So uh, but
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: it's still it looked, it looked kind of it didn't
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: look good on TV looked kind of cruel though. It
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: was like a big fire hose water cannons on it.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: It was effective. But now they used that pepper spray
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: and mace. You've seen that on a lot of videos
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: of protesters screaming and yelling and getting really really really
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: bad with ice ation and the ice ation. Finally, after
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: trying to put up with a free minutes, just take
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: out this mace thing and just spray them in the face.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: One more call. Let's go to Mike and Hawthorne. Mike,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: how you doing?
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Mark, I just want to know when the New
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: York City employee's going to strike.
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: Is Donnie gonna be walking the picket line with him?
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't know. We'll get to that in the
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: next hour. This nursing strike, Mom, Donnie is out there
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: on the picket line. He's out there with the nurses.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: You're not supposed to do that. If you're the mayor
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: the reason this strike is dragging on. Usually it's the mayor, governor,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: you know, somebody like that will get everybody in the
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: room and be the moderator and work out a settlement.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: The problem is Mom, Donnie immediately being a novice, not
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: knowing how to do a management job, went right out
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: and started picketing with the nurses, which kind of makes
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: him unfit to be the honest broker in the middle.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: He's supposed to remain in the middle and try to negotiate,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: not supposed to take a side that early. So and
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: then he brought in and Bernie Sanders of old people. Well,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: we'll get to that in the next hour. We've got
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: a lot to get to. Hey, we'll talk to the
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Dean himself, the best political analyst, Ed Rollins, about all
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: of this stuff and what's going to happen in the
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: midterms and more coming up on seven to ten wr
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Mark Mark Simone on seven to ten wor Well, let's
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: talk to the Dean himself. Ed Rollins has been in
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: a lot of White Houses. He's run a lot of campaigns,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: some of the most successful in the world. Ed Rollins,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: how you doing.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: Good morning, Mark, How are you very good?
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Hey? The idea of ice getting criminals off the street
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: good thing. Buying greenland be a good thing. But does
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: the White House have a messaging problem that they're not
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: explaining things correctly or enough to be Yeah.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: They are. You know. The reality is, as we've talked before.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: This is so much coming every day. But let me
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: just say this, the speech you just made, this was
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: Trump's thought process. Uh, he laid out his thinking. He
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: laid out you know, it's not always coherent. But the
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: critical message was there's no going to be invasion of Greenland,
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: which a lot of people were worried about Brightley or wrongly. Secondly,
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: Greenland is still very important to Trump, and he says
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: this has been picked up and much the analysis hit.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: But this is where it wants to put the Golden Dome.
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: The Golden Dome is is a structure over Israel that
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: basically knocks down the drones and what have you. Reagan
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: had talked about with the Star Wars program forty years ago.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: It's an expensive, not totally developed, not certainly funded yet.
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: But I think there's no question that's that's his intent
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: is to put a golden Dome there, which obviously, if
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: you view the world in a different way, and certainly
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: the way he thinks, uh, the invasions and call him
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: they called him clim that way. The critical the critical
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: thing here, I think is that this the speech that
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: will be studied just long after Trump is.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Out of office.
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: Really Today's because this really is his thought process. This
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: is what he thinks of his allies, is what he
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: thinks of This is his style. And I think just
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: you know, you couldn't you couldn't sit down and say,
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: all right, this is all all the subjects. But it's
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: it's a thought process. This is it's been repeated over
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: and over again, but this was a different form. This
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: was a form of where you had people in business, leaders,
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: what have you. And he's very open in his thought process.
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: He's certainly wasn't willing to pat himself on the back,
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: justifiably for some of the things that he's done, and
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: pushed credit away from some of the things that Europeans
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: think they've done. And I wouldn't say it was a
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: friendly speech. It was sort of like, here's here's my
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: thought process. I'm the most significant leader in the world,
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: the biggest military in the world, and that's what my
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: thought process is. And you need to study it, you
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: need he analyze it. So I think I think there'll
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: be a lot of there'll be a lot of commentary,
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: it'll be negative towards it, but I think this is
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: the reality. This is what he thinks, is what he's
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: gonna try and do the next three years.
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: And he's claiming a lot of the things that he's done,
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: uh justifiably and I think to a certain extent it'll
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: be analyzed and over analyzed.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Now to get the other world leaders.
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: And Trump is so blunt and he just says what
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: he thinks all that, even if they don't like it,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: do they kind of appreciate that for once they got
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: a guy who straight talks with them and they know
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: what he's thinking.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: No, No, haven't every work work for a few presidents
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: and a lot of political leaders. Uh, there's there's gigantic eagles.
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: You know, humble men and women don't basically move forward
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: the polical process. Uh. But by being humble, Uh, you know,
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: you've got to got to believe in yourself, you've got
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: to believe in the people around you, and you've got
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: to march forward.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: And Trump certainly has never been uh and uh calm
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: and understated. Uh, he's somewhat basically said this, who we're
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: doing this will have done.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: And he's gonna march forward now if they can put
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: that in a coherent speech in which he given repeatedly
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: and he has his cabinet given it completely. Uh, he
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: can have a real strategic plan for the next year,
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: which the next year is the critical year for him.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: You know, ten in ten months, we're gonna have a
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: mid term election. If he loses the Congress, Uh, then
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: the last two years are gonna be irrelevant. Uh says
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: they're still gonna be president. But the day the day
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: after the November elections, and certainly if the Democrats taken back,
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: we begin to begin to replacement process. Uh. And that's
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: never a good place to be no matter who who
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: you're president.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: You know, he lose a lot of your power, not
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: just to the Congress, which use a lot of your power,
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: to the fact that someone else is coming forward. And
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: my sense is that his health health holds up Trump's
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: Trump's gonna play play a very big role in who's
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: his successor. Uh. No guarantees it's gonna be avanced, No
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: guarantee it's gonna be revealed, No guarantees it's gonna be anybody. Uh.
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: As a legacy may be picking one of his kids
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: and try and go take the political process that he
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: controls today by looking political proser this is one of
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: those kids in there certainly bushed into that. Now, this
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: is done in the past. So my sense is this
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: is a speech of the overanalyzed. It's it's it's way
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: beyond Marlago or the White House. This is the world
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: looking at this speech today, and everyone's going to have
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: an analysis and every every every other leader in the world,
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: except for a few hours, we have for him always
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: we've got to criticize it. This is what he meant,
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: that's what he didn't mean. This is what the interpretations are.
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: So I think it's going to be. It'll be it'll
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: be a major major document. Whether it was a major
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: major speech or not. He clearly was his thought process.
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: This is what I think I've done. This is why
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: I think I've done it. This is you know, very
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: very upbeat. Uh. This economy is critical and is going
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: as I planned, and equally is important. The country is
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: the most important country in the world. And if you
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: don't like that, that's too bad. As we are.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: So yeah, Now, the President also said that he may
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: go to Iowa later this week. Is this important for
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: a president than like Trump to get him out of
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: the White House, let him go out there and then speak,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: do speeches and do that as it important.
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: Well, I always a state that he's very comfortable with.
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: There's a lot of stake in Iowa this year. I mean,
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: he's become a very Republican state. But we have an
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: open Sunate seat there. We've got a couple of congressional
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: seats that so on his run, you know, I would
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: not if I was the political diverrectory again in the
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: White House, I would not run him around the country
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: like they talk about doing. I would have ten or twelve,
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: you know, one or two a month, big events in
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: which he really gets news. If he goes out and
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: campaigns for fifty or one hundred congressional candidates, that's not
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: going to do anything. It's distracts it first, he wears
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: him down. He needs to focus on the American economy.
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: People have to say, I don't care about Greenland. I
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: don't care about this, I don't care. What I care
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: about is my paycheck, my health care, my kids, my schools,
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: my neighborhoods, and those are things he needs to focus
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: on and he can do that. He can be very
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: charming when he wants to do that.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Now, I know traditionally the party loses the cons in
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: the midterms. But let's say all the big beautiful bill passes,
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: stuff starts happening, paychecks increase, prices start coming down, the
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: economy looks great in four or five months. Doesn't that
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: mean the Republic's got a good chance of holding Congress?
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: It certainly, certainly gives every unication it would the end,
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: there's a lot to make that happen. Again, Wherever it's
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: going to happen is going to happen because he say,
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: put in place. The communication message is what's very important.
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: And again, if he's running around the world doing things
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: everywhere else and not here, the Penttry doesn't care at
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: this point time about what happens in Ukraine, does not
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: care what happens in Venezuela, does not care what happens
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: in Cuba. They care about what's happening in Iowa, Nebraska, Texas.
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: You know, we're going to fix the energy prices, We're
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: going to fix the food prices. But take care of
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: our farmers, but take care of healthcare. Those are the things.
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: He's got a powerful voice. If he wants to use
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: it for those things. If he use it for those things,
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: he gives Republicans watch for the chance.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: To reel like Hey, Well for Democrats, all these crazy
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: women with the nose rings yelling and screaming at the
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: law enforce. In the end, does that really help Democrats?
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: No, you know, it may energize them a little bit,
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: but there's nothing Democrats can come up with this point
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: in time. It's going to be this new magic policy.
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: You know, it's going to make everyone so oh, I
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: want that. What people want is either want Trump? Do
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: you want more Trump? Or you want less Trump? And
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: my sense the Democrats are smarter to go out and
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: just make it. If you want to stop Trump, where
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: the vehicles to stop Trump. If you don't want to
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: stop Trump, go ahead and go vote for him again.
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: It's ready to turn out. Historically to turnout is not high,
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: and mid terms like it isn't presidential. It's not the attention,
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: it's scattered. It's just, you know, it's hard to get
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: the attention that a president can get when he's out there.
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: Can't to the two races we lost this year to
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: Jersey and Virginia, there was a real load turnout among
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: the Republicans, a very high turnout among Democrats. That's the key.
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: That's why historically people usually why people vote presidents just
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: party out is because they're mad at the president for
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: some reason, or the same kind of energy is duvoted
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: to the campaign. This is duoted in the presidential campaign.

  Speaker 1: Now back to the Mark Simon Show on wor Now,
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Hey this weekend, it gets very cold now tomorrow is
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: gonna be forty five degrees Friday near forty. Okay, that's good,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: that's all good. Then Saturday Sunday of the weekend, it
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: gets really cold. The high will only be like twenty
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: degrees over the weekend. At night it'll drop down to
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: like twelve degrees and real feel like seven degrees. It's
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: gonna be very, very very cold Saturday and Sunday. And
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: here's the problem, very late Saturday night. Snow could start.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: Now again, it's too soon to really be accurate in
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: these predictions, but there's the possibility of a big snowstorm
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Sunday into Monday. It could be four inches. There's a
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: couple of you know, they have different models, and there's
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: one of the two of those models that show double
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: digit snowfall ten inches, and we okay, but forget that.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: That's not the most likely. The most likely is four inches,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: five inches, six inches, something like that. But and again,
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: it all depends on the track of the storm. If
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: it turns this way, we get less snow. If it
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: turns this way, we get more snow. And we're too
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: many days out to know which way it'll turn. But
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: just bear that in mind. It could be a big
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: snowstorm Sunday Monday, possible, possible, depending a storm could turn
• 33:33
