  Speaker 1: we're gonna let you get to mayoral race. A lot
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: of developments. We'll get to the mayoral race in a second.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: The President, Uh, well, we'll get to his new ballroom.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: The Democrats that Trump derangement syndrome just never stops. They're
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: opposed to everything. The President also announcing he's gonna forgive
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: student loans. Now, you're probably saying, wait a minute, that
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: was Biden's big thing, for giving the student loans. That
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: was a big that was Biden's main campaign thing, and
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: why would Trump steal that. Watch he's gonna forgive student loans.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Watch the same Democrats now yell and scream it's unconstitutional.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: They'll take them to court, they'll try to block them.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: They'll tell him you can't do this, it's unethical, it's
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: unheard of. Well, the same exact thing. That may be
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: the reason he's doing it. So, uh, we'll get to
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: the let's get right to the mayoral race.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: The debate is tomorrow night. This is the final debate
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: tomorrow night. This is the final chapter of the mayoral
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: race tomorrow night. Unfortunately it's on New York One, which
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: nobody sees, but it'll be online. Hopefully it will be
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: seen by a lot of people online YouTube all that stuff.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Tomorrow is the final debate. Now here's an important thing
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: you should know. The whole narrative for the week is
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: that Curtis has to get out because if he gets out,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Cuomo and Mamdami are tied. Now, why would we think
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: such a crazy thing. Well, it's all based on this
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: poll that was released yesterday. This poll that came out
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: that said if it was just the two of them,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Cuomo and Mamdani, why they would be tied. Well, I
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: told you yesterday it was very suspicious of that poll.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: You know, these public polls are cheap, little flimsy things.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: But it turns out this one, it's basically done by
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the Cuomo campaign. It's run by a lobbyists who are very, very,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: very big Cuomo supporters. So don't try I'm hearing this
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: from all kinds of people. Do not trust that pole.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: It is Cuomo, his buddies is lobbyists. They're the ones
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that ran the pole. I wouldn't trust it for a second.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Curtis is under heavy, heavy pressure to get out from
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: the President of the United States, to anybody. You can
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: imagine New York Post, huge editorial saying he must get
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: out of the race, New York Times, big editorial that
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: he must get out of the race. Now again, this
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: is all based on this poll from yesterday that why
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: if he was out of the race, it would be
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: a tie Cuomo Mondan again, don't trust that pole. It's
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: basically put out by the Cuomo campaign. Don't trust that pole.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't trust it for a second. So,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: just knowing Curtis, he will not get out of the race.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: He's never quit ever, ever, ever. You could try to
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: pressure him out of the race, and everybody and anybody
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: is pressuring him, from the President to everybody he knows.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: The other day I saw Curtis somewhere. I went tover
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: say I got to talk to you, and he said,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: you're not gonna try to bribe me too. I said, no, no, no, no,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I just gotta talk to you about something. So everybody
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: is pressuring him. Now, you can't pressure Curtis to do anything.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: And Curtis, I know the guy for a million years.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: He'd never ever ever quits. He's not a quitter. He
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: always finishes what he started. He doesn't quit. Remember when
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: he was going after the mob. Just take this as
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: an example of how much this guy can stand up
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: to pressure. Remember million years back in the nineties, he's
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: going after the mob, and he's naming mobsters and he's
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: attacking him on there, and he was right, but he's
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: going after them. They decide to beat him to a pulp.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: They send like four guys with baseball bats who just
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: beat him to a pulp. He's in the hospital for
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: a long time. Second he's out, he's right back on
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the air attacking the same mob, the same mob. Family
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: is the same mob. It doesn't stop him. He just
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: kept going. Then they ambush him, try to assassinate him.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: They get a taxi cab. They study his routine. They
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: know when he comes out to get in the cab,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: and they bring their cab. They get him in the
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: back of this cab. They shoot him five times, and
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: he's like the Godfather in the movie five bullets and
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: he survives, gets shot five times and he survives. And
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: what does he do from his hospital? Betty starts attacking
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the same mom the same guys. You can't pressure him,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: nothing will pressure him. He does not back down. So
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: stop trying to get him out of the race. If
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: you're all for Andrew Cuomo, fine, but Cuomo will have
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: to find his own voters. He can't go take try
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: to take Republican voters. This is this whole problem, this
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: whole crazy scenario, This Mom Donnie could be mayor. This
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: whole crazy problem was caused by Andrew Cuomo. He chased
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Eric Adams out of the Democratic primary. Now, had Adams
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: been in the Democratic he might have had a shot
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: in those debates against Mam Donni, who knows, but it
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: ended up just being basically the Democratic primary was Cuomo
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Mam Donni, and Cuomo stunk in the debates. He got
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: wiped out in both debates. The first debate, Mom Donni
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: just crushed him. So a couple of weeks later they
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: armed Cuomo with all sorts of things to hit Mam Donnie,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: with all sorts of clever things to say. He had
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: a whole bunch of memorized line. Every time he hit
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Mam Donni with one, Mom Donnie just pounded him into
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the ground. Cuomo's a bad debater, He's not good at it.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: And Mam Donnie, who it would probably be the worst
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: mayor ever, but he is a good debater, and he's
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: a fast talker, and he's very smart in a debate,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: and so he beat Cuomo badly. In both debates. Cuomo
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: lost the primary, really lost. Had nothing to do with
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: the rank choice. He lost by I think it was
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: four four and thirty thousand for Mam Donnie, something like
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: three hundred thousand for Cuomo. Was it was a real
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: serious defeat. He didn't even come close to Mom Donni.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: So that's how you got stuck with this guy. Had
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Cuomo not chased Eric Adams out of the primary, things
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: might have been different. But you end up with mom Donnie.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: And if you saw the first debate, Cuomo, with his
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: slow talking and his sing song, it was not effective
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: because Mam Donny talks a mile a minute. When you
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: talk like this, you sound like a very smart guy.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Because you're talking so fast, you must be pretty smart.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: And then you get Cuomo, who talks so slow, and
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: he goes up and he goes down. And of course
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Curtis was great in the debate. Most experts will agree
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Curtis won that first debate. The question is who noticed,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, anybody knows. So you got the second and
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: final debate tomorrow night that could decide everything, you know.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: And the other thing is, I mean, who would you
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: really trust? Obviously not Mom Donni, but would you really
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: trust Cuomo in office? I know he plays the role
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: of some sort of Bill clint and centrist, old fashioned
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: sort of a Democrat. He tries to look like that.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: And that's why all these big donors you know that
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: are running around the Bill Ackman's a pushing, pushing Cuomo.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: They're the worst when it comes to politics. The big
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: donors always get it wrong. They fall for everything. So
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: they've fallen for this image of Cuomo as the centrist, mainstream,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: old fashioned sort of Bill Clinton Democrat, which he's not.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: When he was the governor, he was the most far
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: left governor we ever had. He's the guy that pushed
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: the no bail, no jail. He's the guy that closed prisons.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: He bragged, bragged about how many prisons he closed. He's
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the guy that changed the whole parole board, put all
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: these crazy left winging people on the parole board, that
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: let every criminal out. They let out forty three cop killers.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: He's the guy that took away the cops overtime. He
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: took away the qualified immunity. Anything he'd do to hurt
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: the cops. He was horrible, left wing sort of a governor.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: So would you trust him as mayor?
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: No?
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, who's the one person you could absolutely trust? Curtis?
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: You know what he is, you know what he stands for.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: He hasn't changed anything. You know. You got Cuomo saying, well,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I would do it differently. I shouldn't have done easier
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: changing everything as is, Mom, Donnie. The only guy who's
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: been totally consistent and everything he says is Curtis for
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: about forty years. You got to absolutely trust him. Now,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: President Trump trying hard, trying hard to get Curtis out
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: of the race.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: The Mondami thing is, it's a disaster waiting to happen.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: We can't have a communist in charge of a great,
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: supposedly free enterprise kind of a representative city. So I
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: think it's if you have a communist Mari, I think
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: it's going to be very tough for him and for
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: the city.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you gotta make that point tomorrow, and both
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: of you guys against Mom Donnie. You got to make
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: that point. The city is a capitalist city. That's our
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: main industry here in New York is capitalism. The main
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: industry of New York is Wall Street finance, banking. It's
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: a capitalist city. You can't be mayor of this city
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: if you don't like capitalism. It's like you can't go
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: to You can't be the mayor of Detroit if you
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: don't like automobiles. That's their main industry, cars, That's what
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: they do there. Here's more of Trumps. He's not a
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Cuomo fan, but he just he doesn't like Curtis at all.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: He's got a phobia to Curtis. It's been a love
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: hate relationship.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: I was the only one on that stage. Difference.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Well, I'll find the clip later, but here's here's Trump
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: on He's pushing behind the scenes for Cuomba.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: I think it's not good to have a communist, Okay,
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: would I rather have a Democrat than a communist? Barely
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: they're almost becoming the same thing. What about a Republican
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: Curtis Leev Well, you know, look, I mean I don't
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: know he's a Republican. Is he really a Republican?
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: You know? Am I a big fan?
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: This isn't exactly ideal where he wants to make Gracie
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: Mansion a home for the cats.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: So I'll make a decision soon. I don't know. Hey,
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: the mayor don't know this. Three looks. I don't know
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: that I'm going to get involved.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well he is very involved behind the scenes. He's
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: calling everybody day and night, trying to push Curtis hat,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: push Cloma, and you know the arguments against Curtis. You
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: can't really make a policy argument against Curtis. It's impossible.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: He's correct on policy. So they resort to these, Well,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: the cats. I don't want to see the cats. I
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: hate these cats. I don't want cats in Gracie mansion.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: It's a silly, superficial thing. It means nothing, does nothing
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: to do with anything. I mean, if Cuomo were a mayor,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: you'd see all those nineteen sixties muscle cars parked all
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: over the driveway. I mean, who cares. It's nobody cares
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: if he has cats and Gracie manson or the red hat, well,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: well you got to stop wearing a red beret. You
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: got to stop wearing you know, a guy just got
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: elected president wearing a red hat. You can wear a hat,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: it's no big deal. So now Curtis, he's not a
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Trump fan, never has been. Now that's helpful in a
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: New York City mayoral race because it's all very democratic city.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: So the fact is you have no Trump connection. In fact,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Trump doesn't like you, you don't like him. That can
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: help you here in New York City.
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: I was the only one on that stage defending President
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: Donald Trump.
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: He was being double teamed by again the.
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: Architect of our destruction in New York State, Andrew Cuomo
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: and his apprentice Johanmandamid. They both couldn't wait to attack
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: Donald Trump.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: I defended him in that debate.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know the problem is Cuomo when he tries,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: he's been attacking Curtis in every interview, going after Curtis
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: like crazy.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: He's really a shock jock on local radio.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: No, let me stop there. Curtis has never, for one
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: second been a shock jack. That's a ridiculous thing to say.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: His entire career has been discussing politics, and he's been
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: a news talk He's never been a shockjack. It's just
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: an out and out live from Cuomo.
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: He's never been in government, he has no relevant experience,
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: but he does take a certain number of votes, and
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: to that extent.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: He is a spoiler. I believe he's ultimately irrelevant.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Now you can't really call'm a spoiler. He's a major
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: party nominee. Cuomo was rejected by the Democrats, and Mamdani
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: has the Democratic nomination. Curtis was the Republican. If you're
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: the Republican nominee, you're a major party candidate. Cuomo then
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: decided to run on some third party. If you're the
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: third party candidate, you are technically the spoiler. So it's
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: actually Cuomo that is the spoiler. Now here's more a Curtis.
• 12:24
  Speaker 6: I've had a love hate relationship with Donald Trump that
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: goes back over thirty years. But I know one thing.
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: We have Andrew Cuomo, we have Zarn Mondami. They want
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: to take on Donald Trump. Look, you can be tough,
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: but you can't be tough if it's going to cost
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: people desperately needed federal funds. John Mondami, the president has
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: already said it's going to take seven billion dollars out
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: of the budget right from the start.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: If you're elected mayor.
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: People are going to suffer in this city, people who
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: need those federal funds. What I would do is set
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: and negotiate, and if.
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: You try to get tough with you Trump.
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: The only people who are going to suffer from that
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: are the people of New York trup.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: So the problem is all these people pushing Curtis out
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: of the race. If Curtis left the race, this fantasy
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: that all his voters would go run over to Cuomo.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Most of them are Republican voters. They're not going to Cuomo.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: And there are a lot of Curtis voters who just
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: can't stand Andrew Cuomo. They're just they'll stay home they
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: want So there's this fantasy that he would get all
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: of Curtis's voters. It's not realistic. And again this is
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: all based on that poll that came out yesterday, which
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: is basically a poll produced by the Cuomo campaign. The
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: guy that runs that pole huge, huge Cuomo supporter. I
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: would not trust that poll at all. But now here's
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: more of Curtis.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: But you can't beat Donald Trump.
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: You can't rub and bump shoulders with him and expect
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: to come out a winner for the people of New
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: York City.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: Well, Donald Trump, as our.
• 13:59
  Speaker 6: President has always he makes his statement and then he's
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: willing to have his minions come and negotiate with you
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: and figure out what's in the best centers of New
• 14:08
  Speaker 6: York City.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: He loves New York City. I know that having grown
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: up in this city myself.
• 14:13
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: And Cuomo has been using this argument. If Mandani wins,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: you'll see people leaving. They're leaving New York and it'll
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: be u haul. Well, you got to remember, nobody caused
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: more people to leave New York than Cuomo when he
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: was governor. We had a lot. You know how many
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: people left New York when Cuomo was governor because of
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: his policies. So many people left. We lost four congressional
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: seats under Cuomo. Do you remember there was a year
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: where you couldn't get a moving van. There was such
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: a shortage of moving vans from people leaving.
• 14:42
  Speaker 8: I don't think it's I don't think those accusations are fair.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: We are out there. I'm out there every day in
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: every community.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: I'm at the opening of an envelope. Yes, again, that's
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: not true the accusations people have been pointing out. He
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: hasn't been campaigning at all. You see him do some
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: TV interviews, but he still has not opened a campaign headquarters.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Fourteen days left of the election, he has not opened
• 15:09

• 15:24
  Speaker 1: story and the opposition to it. We'll get to Gail King.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Everybody is after her. We'll get to Hey, we'll get
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: back to Boston Blue there's some controversy over this. It's

  Speaker 1: He takes some calls. Let's go to Chris in Manhattan. Chris,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: how you doing? Oh he's always upset. This guy's always frazzled.
• 16:09
  Speaker 8: Go ahead, Oh yeah, I am a little frazzled.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: Are there they for the voter?
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: Aloge party calls packs.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Something's wrong with your phone? It keeps no, you keep
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: cutting out there. You go Let's go to Ernie Northport,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Long Island. Ernie, how you doing?
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: In reference to Como's telling Curtis to throw it in,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's getting a large percentage of the Democratic vote.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Why not just give it to Curtis and maybe he's
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: got a legitimate shot to win.
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Well, uh, you gotta remember this poll that this was
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: basically the Cuomo campaign doing this poll. People that love
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Cuomo did the polls showing well, if it was just
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: a Mom Downy and Cuoma. Look what you notice they
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: never pulled what would happen if it was just Curtis
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: and mom Donnie. They were careful not to pull that
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: because Curtis might have actually done better against Mom Donnie.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Let's go to uh Sandy in Westchester. Sandy, how you
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: doing all right?
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Curtis got thirty one percent of the vote in the
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: last election. What in the world makes you all conservative
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: talk show hosts thinks?
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Are you a Democrat? Is that?
• 17:23
  Speaker 8: What?
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Why you call this a conservative to show?
• 17:25
  Speaker 9: Oh, I'm praying that you guys will start you got you.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Got you gotta start with you guys. It just sounds stupid.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Let's go to uh Lauren in New Jersey, Lauren, how
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: you doing, hey?
• 17:38
  Speaker 7: Mark? Hey, So, I am all for facts, numbers, statistics
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: and excellent polls, but talk about a weak argument. Wouldn't
• 17:49
  Speaker 7: people prefer cats in Gracie mentioned and a communist?
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Well, you gotta remember whenever he says, I don't want
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: to cats and Gracey, it's a silly sid ish. It
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: has nothing to do with it anything. It means they
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: can't think of the argument. They just can't come up
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: with the argument against Curtis on a policy basis. They
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: just can't think of anything, you know, to say the guys.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: I guess they're trying to make it sound like he's weird. Hey, listen,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: I know the guy for a million years. He's definitely
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: got some weird things about him, but nothing compared to
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: the weirdness of Cuomo. They've all got weird stuff. Let's
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: go to David and Queen's David.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: How you doing, hey, Mark? Good morning. Kudos to you
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: Mark for being the only one that I hear on
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: the radio not piling on Curtis.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: No, No, there's a lot of people that there's a
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: lot of people supporting Curtis on the radio. Plenty of people.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: This guy Cuomo caused so much damage. He should be
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: facing a war crimes trial.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know about that. But he was a horrible
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: left wing governor. He was to the left of Mom Donnie.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: He personally single handledly caused the crime wave with his
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: closing the prisons, let everybody out, the no bail notes, jail,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: and go on and on. But he was just horrible
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: as Governor christ from Manhattan. Let's see it sounds now okay.
• 18:56
  Speaker 8: Sorry about that before. I don't know what happened. Oka, Listen,
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: Curtis is so lucky to have a loyal friend.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: And do you have an actual point you want to make?
• 19:06
  Speaker 8: Yes, I do you say frequently that that people that
• 19:10
  Speaker 8: don't if Curtis votes drops out, people won't vote for Cuomo.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: That's not what I said at all. I said, Well,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: I meant.
• 19:18
  Speaker 8: Love Curtis, but I can't vote for him, and don't
• 19:22
  Speaker 8: come London.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: Don't then don't vote for Hi. I'm just what I
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: said was if he drops out, this is fantasy that
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: all his voters will go to Cuomo. Some of them will, most.
• 19:30
  Speaker 8: Of them, I think most of them will. That they
• 19:32
  Speaker 8: know that they know what's the right thing to do.
• 19:34
  Speaker 8: They wouldn't rather have Mandanmi than Cuomo.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Well, here's the problem. Here's the problem. You always get
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: all flustered. Here's the problem.
• 19:41
  Speaker 8: I know, I am flustered about Okay, I mean I
• 19:42
  Speaker 8: live here. It's going to destroy the city.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: It's too hard to talk to you trying to talk
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: to him, moth It's impossible. Here's the argument, though, anytime
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: you put Cuomo against mont Donnie, Cuomo loses. We've tested
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: this a number of times in the primary fence. Whenever
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: you put Cuomo against Mom Donnie, Cuomo loses. It's we've
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: seen it in action in a Democratic primary. Cuomo camp
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: beat Mam Donnie. So to think he's going to be
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: popular with Republicans it's a bit of a stretch. So,
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: and it's also he was a horrible governor. He was
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: as left wing as Mam Donnie when he governed. It's
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: something to consider. Let's go to Chuck and Staten Island. Chuck,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: how you doing, Hi, Mark?
• 20:26
  Speaker 8: It occurred to me that Trump won a lot of
• 20:29
  Speaker 8: reason was that people lied at the polls, but they
• 20:33
  Speaker 8: told the truth when they voted.
• 20:34
  Speaker 9: So all the Republicans have to do is get.
• 20:36
  Speaker 8: At and vote.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good point, you know. That is another
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: point there is guys that Curtis tend to what they
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: say call underpole. They just don't poll as well as
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: they would really do. And again again this poll that
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: came out yesterday, don't take this poll seriously. It was
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: basically done by the Cuomo campaign and the people that
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: run that pole are huge Cuomo supporter, so don't take
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: it seriously. They were very careful not the pole Curtis
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: versus Mom Donnie because they didn't want to hear the answer.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: But don't take that poll yesterday seriously. And also, it's
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: possible tomorrow night things could change Curtis, and even he's
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: admitted there were no big knockout punches in the first debate.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Let's see what happens tomorrow night. Silly to say anything
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: until tomorrow night's final debate. Then we'll know. If Curtis
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: can't do some damage to Mom Donnie, then maybe he
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: should get out. We'll see, But tomorrow night's the key.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: When we come back. Bill O'Reilly will be with us
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: next on seven to ten WR Live.
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: Here's more Mark Simone on seven to ten WR.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: Hey, Yeah, Bill O'Reilly, you know his new book, Confronting Evil. Oh,
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: it's a huge bestseller. You got to get this book
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: if you haven't ordered it. The book is Confronting Evil.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Phenomenal book. You can order it right now. It's out. Also,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: you can watch the TV show The Column. Everything is
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: at Bill O'Reilly dot com and make sure you check
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: out his YouTube channel, Bill O'Reilly on YouTube. It's become
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: a big, big, big channel. A lot of great stuff there,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly. How you doing.
• 22:09
  Speaker 9: You know, I'm tread and water here two weeks before
• 22:12
  Speaker 9: the vote? Right?
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, not easy. Hey, tell us about Washington, d C.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: You spent a lot of time there last week. What
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: does it look like now? Is it different that the
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Trump is guarding it?
• 22:24
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's different in the sense that there's bulldozers all
• 22:27
  Speaker 9: over the White House bulldoze and old thing down. I
• 22:35
  Speaker 9: have never been a big fan of the District of Columbia.
• 22:38
  Speaker 9: I think it's an artificial city, unlike New York, where
• 22:43
  Speaker 9: you know, real people lived and people come here from
• 22:46
  Speaker 9: all over the world to succeed and get involved with
• 22:51
  Speaker 9: the neighborhoods from which they live. Washington's not like that.
• 22:55
  Speaker 9: Most of these people work for the federal government or
• 22:59
  Speaker 9: some kind of a support system. There's not really defined neighborhoods,
• 23:04
  Speaker 9: like there's not an Italian neighborhood or a Greek neighborhood.
• 23:08
  Speaker 9: You don't have that. It's it's sterile. But we had
• 23:13
  Speaker 9: a lot to do down there. It was in the
• 23:14
  Speaker 9: White House twice. We did the Big Three American Show,
• 23:19
  Speaker 9: which twenty three million people access that or part of
• 23:24
  Speaker 9: that program. It was a News Nation production, which was phenomenal.
• 23:31
  Speaker 9: So we were really busy.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and the new Kennedy Center looks good. Looks very good,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: doesn't it.
• 23:37
  Speaker 9: Yeah. I had been there a few years ago when
• 23:41
  Speaker 9: I shocked the world and I gave an award to
• 23:44
  Speaker 9: Herbie Hancock Presidential Medal Award, which is what President Trump
• 23:52
  Speaker 9: was giving out, and the producer's CBS selected me to do.
• 24:00
  Speaker 9: But I think they just wanted to annoy Barack Obama,
• 24:02
  Speaker 9: who was in the audience and in and outs that
• 24:06
  Speaker 9: I walked out, But Herbie had asked for me because
• 24:08
  Speaker 9: I've known him for a while. He's a very funny guy.
• 24:13
  Speaker 9: And it hasn't much changed. It's a good place to
• 24:17
  Speaker 9: go to see any exposition at all.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Hey, the Trump is building a ballroom. It's something
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: that should have been done a long time ago, instead
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: of having these parties in a tent outside. And he
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: saw the Rose garden. It's beautiful now with the beautiful
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: tile instead of standing on wet grass. Isn't it much nicer?
• 24:34
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, look, it's a matter of taste. I'm
• 24:37
  Speaker 9: a big traditional guy. Probably would have done a lesser footprint.
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: What I liked about the Rose Garden was that he
• 24:42
  Speaker 9: put portraits of every president. I think he had a
• 24:47
  Speaker 9: little blanket over Biden and Obama, but he is a
• 24:52
  Speaker 9: portrait of everyone in the car there going from the
• 24:55
  Speaker 9: residence to the over office. Yeah, and it really looked
• 24:59
  Speaker 9: good and it was just respectful to the past presidents.
• 25:03
  Speaker 9: But look, well it's a matter of taste. He's a
• 25:06
  Speaker 9: grandeur guy. He likes to make the big statement where
• 25:09
  Speaker 9: the big power in the world, and he wants, you know,
• 25:13
  Speaker 9: people to know it when they come into the White House.
• 25:15
  Speaker 9: That's what he's doing.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Hey, the No Kings rally, most people were a
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: little surprised at how old the people were. It was
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: a very white crowd, very old. It was sponsored. They've
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: they've traced the money now of every Oligarch put money
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: into this, would you think of it?
• 25:32
  Speaker 9: I thought it was all right in this instan the
• 25:35
  Speaker 9: right to protest I respect, so I don't mind you
• 25:40
  Speaker 9: going out there to protest anything you want, as long
• 25:43
  Speaker 9: as you do it peacefully, which they did. I thought
• 25:46
  Speaker 9: that was impressive. I was up in Kingston, New York,
• 25:51
  Speaker 9: up on the Hudson, and they had a little rally there,
• 25:55
  Speaker 9: but it was like a big party up there. The
• 25:57
  Speaker 9: ice cream guys were there, and the kids are running
• 25:59
  Speaker 9: aroun down and there were not very many young people
• 26:04
  Speaker 9: there are going to the football games, high school games
• 26:07
  Speaker 9: and stuff like that. It was mostly older hippies up
• 26:10
  Speaker 9: in Kingston. If you know that part of New York,
• 26:13
  Speaker 9: Ryan Beck and all that, A lot of hippies have
• 26:16
  Speaker 9: moved up there, and they, you know, they're like the
• 26:20
  Speaker 9: quiet or whatever. I don't know, but I didn't have
• 26:23
  Speaker 9: any problem with the no Kings protests itself. But I
• 26:28
  Speaker 9: would ask people, so what exactly are you protesting? And
• 26:32
  Speaker 9: the ice thing was the big thing they don't want.
• 26:35
  Speaker 9: They don't want immigration law enforced, and I think that
• 26:38
  Speaker 9: should be. You know, look, you can disagree on policy,
• 26:42
  Speaker 9: but if you don't want immigration enforce and many, many
• 26:46
  Speaker 9: of these people do not want any enforcement of immigration law.
• 26:51
  Speaker 9: Then that should be known because that's a fairly radical position.
• 26:55
  Speaker 9: And I think that the people who sponsored it, if
• 26:58
  Speaker 9: you look at who put it together, they're all radical leftists.
• 27:01
  Speaker 9: Every single organization to pump money into that is way
• 27:05
  Speaker 9: way out there.
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Hey, the book Confronting Evil, big, big bestseller. Now everybody,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: I know. The chapter they're talking about the most is
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: the Putin chapter. They realized they didn't realize what a
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: psychopath this guy is.
• 27:21
  Speaker 9: Yeah. I gave the book to President Trump on nine
• 27:25
  Speaker 9: to eleven when I was with him at Yankee Stadium,
• 27:27
  Speaker 9: and I got a nice letter from him yesterday, totally
• 27:31
  Speaker 9: out of the blue, saying, this is really an important book.
• 27:36
  Speaker 9: It goes into my collection. I've got a lot of
• 27:39
  Speaker 9: Trump stuff over the years. But it was a very
• 27:41
  Speaker 9: kind thing for him to do that, because he knows
• 27:43
  Speaker 9: any endorsement will help me in the book sales department.
• 27:50
  Speaker 9: But I think another chapter that is important is the
• 27:52
  Speaker 9: Henry the eighth chapter, because if you really want to
• 27:56
  Speaker 9: know about what kings two, ye, Henry gonna be any
• 28:01
  Speaker 9: demonstrations no, uh those head you know you'll lose your
• 28:07
  Speaker 9: head quicker, and so the people out there, they don't
• 28:11
  Speaker 9: really know what the absolute monarchs did, and they just
• 28:15
  Speaker 9: kind of like along for the left wing ride, the
• 28:18
  Speaker 9: liberal ride. But the Putin chapter, I know the President
• 28:23
  Speaker 9: read it, and it is an important, obviously chapter because
• 28:28
  Speaker 9: Putin is the most dangerous man in the world right now.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Henry the eighth chapter, I can't even listen to
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: the Herman Hermit's song ANYMOREZ.
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: What a guy?
• 28:39
  Speaker 9: Oh boy? No, yeah, you don't want to date Henry
• 28:44
  Speaker 9: the Eighth.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: You know, it's an amazing book, Confronting Evil. I think
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: it's I think it's the best book so far. But
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: order it you can. It's out Confronting Evil. Uh, and
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: the TV show, the column, everything is at Bill O'Reilly
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: dot com. Hey, we only got a minute left mayoral race.
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: What do you think?
• 29:02
  Speaker 9: It's van And he's going to win, unfortunately, and the
• 29:05
  Speaker 9: city will now pay a price to that, as everybody
• 29:08
  Speaker 9: who's sane pretty much knows.
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 29:12
  Speaker 9: The good news to me as a New Yorker is
• 29:15
  Speaker 9: that Hoko will lose next year because she'll be attached
• 29:18
  Speaker 9: to Mandani and when the city goes south and it
• 29:22
  Speaker 9: will quickly just a nine to one one system itself.
• 29:25
  Speaker 9: When you get in trouble, you call nine one one,
• 29:27
  Speaker 9: nobody's going to answer your call. You're on your own.
• 29:33
  Speaker 9: That's how bad it's going to be. Garbage won't be
• 29:35
  Speaker 9: picked up. You know it's going to be, and it's
• 29:38
  Speaker 9: going to happen fast. So that'll all fall on Hoko.
• 29:42
  Speaker 9: She'll lose and that's what the state needs. He needs
• 29:46
  Speaker 9: do leadership.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Well, thanks for cheering us up, but.
• 29:51
