  Speaker 1: Let's get back to the Mark Simone Show. I'm w R.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Hello. We'll get to Johnny Carson a little later this hour.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: We'll get to Bill Ackman. Mom, Donnie, Well, he spoke
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: with Jessica Tish again over the weekend. I guess that's
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: a good sign that they're talking. Hopefully she stays right now.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Eric Adams is away, he's been in Israel. He had
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: this terrible shooting, a police officer shot in Brooklyn. Little
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: crisis occurring. And the good news is you got Randy
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Mastro as the first deputy mayor. He was Rudy Giuliani's
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: first deputy mayor. If you like the way that Giuliani
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: administration ran, then you like Randy Mastro. And about a
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: year ago, Eric Adams put him in charge of city Hall.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: He's the first deputy mayor. So even with Adams away,
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Randy Mastro ran to the hospital to be with the
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: officer and handle the situation. Police Commissioner j. Tsh is there.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: But when you got Mastro, things are under control. That's
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: why things have been so good for the past year. Now,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: what happens when Mom Donnie comes in, Well, that first
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: deputy mayor will be Dean Fulahan, who comes from the
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Deblasio administration. He was Deblasio's chief of staff, first deputy mayor,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: in other words, first deputy mayor. So it's going to
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: look a lot like a Deblasio administration, which was bad,
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: but we got through it. We got through it. We
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: got through eight years of Deblasio. We probably won't have
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: to get through that much of Mom Donnie. It probably is.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's four years, but it might. It could
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: just be one year. You might get a governor next
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: year who removes him if things aren't going well. Now.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump said he'll meet with Mom. Donnie said, New
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: York is important. He'll meet with him, He'll talk to him. Mom.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Donnie was asked about meeting with Trump.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I look forward to having a conversation with President Trump
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: because it's one where I'll make clear if he wants
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: to work together to deliver on his campaign promises of
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: cheaper groceries or a lower cost of living, I am
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: there and I am ready to go. But if he
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: wants to talk about pursuing a campaign agenda that comes
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: to the expense of New Yorkers, that is something that
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: I will fight.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, so what will Trump do when he meets
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: with him. Well, maybe he'll get through to him on
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: a couple of things. First, the most important thing is crime.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: If you convince him, he's got to get a real
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: police commissioner and he's got to really take care of crime.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Mom Donnie said, he doesn't want to hire five thousand
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: more cops. And the problem is will he with you know,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: withdraw cops from a lot of situations not enforce certain things.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Then that's what t Blasio basically did. Things start to
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: get out of control. So that's a problem. But hopefully
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Trump gets through to him on that kind of stuff. Now, personally, well,
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: they got some things in common. Mom Donnie was a
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: little trump like in his campaign and that he was
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: the total outsider up against these big political machines. And
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Trump's case, he was up against the Clinton machine. Mamdani
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: was up against the Cuomo machine, and he defeated him.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: So they got that, and they've got something in common. Now.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Trump is good at winning people over in private. People
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: are always surprised in private what a nice man he is. Well,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: how he relates to people. He's an incredibly good listener.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: It's beyond listening. He looks at you like with radar
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: and sonar. He knows exactly what you're saying, and he's
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: really good at handling people. But generally the people he
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: handles are like him. They're big, successful business people. They're
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: CEOs or bank presidents, or they're substantial people. That's where
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: he does best. But he's also been good with the weirdo,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: odd ball kookie types you know, Kim Jong un and others.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: He was able to win him over and calm him down.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Zelenski got off to a bad start but eventually developed
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: a good relationship. So we'll see what he can do
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: with Mom Donnie if he can get through to him.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Mom Donnie is talking to Tish. He did a Sunday
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: show where he was asked about keeping her.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: Will she stay in that office?
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: I continue to be confident in my decision, but as
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: soon as there's a public announcement to be made, we'll
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: be sure.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: To show does she say? I got to think about this.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: More of the conversation, frankly, had to do with what
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: it looks like to deliver that public.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Safety right now. He is a genius at double talk.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: You know. Kamala would do this word salad and was
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: pretty obvious, you know what the hell she was talking about?
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Just like a babbling yo yo. But mom, Donnie, the
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: double talk is very good. Now what did he just say?
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: It was asked her, are you going to keep her?
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Did he give a yes or no?
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: Will she stay in that office?
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I continue to be confident in my decision.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: But okay, think of it. I continue to be confident
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: in my decision. What does that mean? I continue? You
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: could just say, well, my decision is to keep her.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: But he says, I'm confident in my decision. That adds
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: an element to it. Then he adds a third layer.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: I continue to be confident in my decision. Now he
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: just said three things without saying anything.
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: Will she stay in that office?
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: I continue to be confident in my decision.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: But as soon as there's a public announcement to be made,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: we'll be sure of show.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Does she say, as soon as there's a public announcement
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: to be made, we'll be sure to share it. Well, obviously,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: if it's a public announcement, you'll share it.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: He was asked about Putin. I don't know what Putin said.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: Do anything.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: I believe this is a city of international law and
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: being a city of international law means looking to uphold
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: international law, and that means upholding the warrants from the
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: International Criminal Court, whether they're for Benjamin Ninia or Vladimir Putin.
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: I think that that's critically important to showcase our values.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: And unlike Donald Trump, I'm someone who looks to exist
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: within the confines of the laws that we have, So
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: I will look to exhaust every legal possibility, not to
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: create my own laws.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Now, I guess they're talking about arresting Putin if he
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: comes to town, or arresting that yah who No, he
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: said again, this is all bubble talk.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I believe this is a city of international law first,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: So it's not.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: It's not a city of international law. We don't use
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: international law here. We don't even recognize it here in
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: New York City. And if he ever tries us, he'll
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: be taken to court and lose immediately. It's a city
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: of city and state and US law. We don't acknowledge
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: international law. And by the way, that court that put
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: out the indictment against Natana is not recognized as any
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: sort of a legitimate court. It's the World Court of whatever,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: but we don't even recognize it. So he's absolutely wrong.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: He's threatened Netya, who's supposed to come here next year
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: for that annual UN summit. He'll speak at that as
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: he always does. Will Mamdani a tempt to arrest him.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: We are a global city, But I also think what
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: New Yorkers are looking for is consistency in the way
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: in which we talk about our values and follow through
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: on them. And that's why I think these warrants from
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: the International Criminal Court, they are worth fully exploring every
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: legal possibility to actually follow through on.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: Again, the World Criminal Court not recognized by anybody. It's
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: just a joke. If he does come to New York,
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: President Trump has said he will have him escorted by
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: milit terry federal troops FBI. He will protect him from
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: being arrested. Alan Dershwitz said he will stand by his
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: side the entire visit to New York and be his lawyer.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: What about Trump sending in the National Guard.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: And so we will have a unified front myself the
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: Governor of the Attorney General in showcasing that any attempts
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: to deploy the National Guard here in New York City,
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: it's not an attack on an individual politician like myself.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: It's an attack on the city.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Now a unified front.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Think of this army, so we will have a unified front. Myself.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: The governor of the Attorney General.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: All right now, myself, he's like a dumb kid, a
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: thirty four year old kid. The governor is a total
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: coward who runs and hides it the sign of any trouble.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: The Attorney General is a slee's ball who's under indictment,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: who may be in jail by the time this even
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: comes up. Let me see about arrest.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I've said time and again this is a city of.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: International same thing. Oh here, he's on k hulk.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: I've also said that if there are additional or alternate
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: revenue sources that would pay for the same things.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he wants to do these free buses. He has
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: no power to make the buses free. The Mayor of
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: New York has no control over the buses. It's all state.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: It's the MTA that runs them. And Hochel has said,
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: you can't make the buses free, can't take it be
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: a massive loss of revenue, so you'd have to come
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: up with some other revenue.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: I've also said that if there are additional or alternate
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: revenue sources that would pay for the same things, we
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: would embrace them by all means, because the most important
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: thing is funding these things. And I think with the
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: governor there's a clear alignment of the importance of delivering
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: on universal childcare and on affordability agenda. And now the
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: work begins even before we've been sworn in on lining
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: out when, how, But we always know it's for who,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: which is New Yorkers.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: See, if you're not saying anything, if you're not going
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: to answer, if you're going to double talk, the secret
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: is to do it fast. If you said, well, I
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: you know, it sounds like you're not answering. But if
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: you talk very quickly and you're not really answering, and
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: you said, well, it's a matter of how, when and
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: HW and if you talk it a mile a minute,
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: your salad, you know what you're talking about, even if
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: you don't. But we'll see. This is not going to
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: be easy getting through Mom Donnie. But but we got
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: through Deblasio. It was pretty much the same thing. Deblasio
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: thought socialism was better. De Blasio same thing with the affordability.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: But remember Deblasio's whole campaign was about two New York's.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: There's two New York's, one for the rich, one for
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: so Now. The only difference is de Plasio didn't really
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: hate all those rich people. In fact, he did them
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: favor after whatever they needed, he did it for him.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: So I don't know about Mom Donnie. I don't know
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: if he's that bribeable or that persuadable. But we'll see.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: He's got a team in place. He's got a bunch
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: of people that are on the transition team. He has
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: one guy on the transition team just got caught with
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: the most horrible antisemitic remarks. But listen, that's no shock.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: This is what you expect from these Mom Donnie people.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: You got a little of that from the Deblasio team
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: as well. Now, another thing is this transition team of
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Mom Donnie's has been raising money and apparently they're up
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: to about a million dollars already. They've raised about one
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: million dollars. Now. They say it's a smaller donations. Average
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: donation is seventy five dollars, But that's a lot of money.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: What do they do with the transition money? Who knows?
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: They pay for themselves. They just spend it on themselves.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: It's kind of ridiculous, but good for mom. Donnie. Yeah,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: the donation came. The money came from seven thousand donors,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: averaging seventy three dollars per donor. So the other people
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: on he got Elena Leopold, she's the director. The whole
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: transition team is female. I don't know what that means,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: but she's she's pretty bad. They got Lena Kahan, who's
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: co chair of the transition team. She was a longtime
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Obama Biden persons now for her tough anti trust stance,
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: in other words, harassing businesses. She has a history of
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: going after major companies and trying to bust them up,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: anti trust, so that's not good. The transition team says
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: more than fifty thousand people five zero fifty thousand candidates
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: have applied to work for his administration. They have one
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: of those resume portals. They've gotten fifty thousand applications. They'll
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: be going through fifty thousand. Well, it's say they got
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: like six weeks to get to get through this. And
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: we'll see Bill Maher on Friday Night begging, begging Democrats
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: to get away from this socialism, this nonsense. Mars said,
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: did you watch his victory speech. Well, if you didn't
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: see it, he said, don't worry, You're going to see
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: it in every attack ad for the next two years.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: Republicans will be using that Mamdani speech in every campaign
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: ad against the Democrats. He said, Democratic socialism is like
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: a dating profile. Looks great until you actually meet up
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: in the real world. You know, Bernie Sanders, his single
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: pair healthcare sounded great, but it totally collapsed when you
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: try it. He did it in Vermont. It totally collapsed.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Bernie aoc Mamdannie. They're not Democrats. They'll be the first
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: to tell you. They're democratic socialists. It's a different thing,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: and Democrats should stay the hell away from it. Hunter
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Biden goes nuts on this podcast, ranting and raving and
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: yelling and screaming. It's really met me. Know, Miranda Devine
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: wrote the definitive book about the laptop and about the
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Big Guy and the Biden corruptions. He really went after her.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: He called her ugly, hideous, looking, a whore. This is
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: Hunter Biden's worse. Obviously, she's a very fine person then
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: very attractive. You know, you can call people ugly, but
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: when they're making a living on television, people looking at
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: close ups of their face. I don't think they nobody's
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: going to buy that they're so ugly. But it's a
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: good to compliment to Miranda that he couldn't find anything
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: wrong in the book, to point out he couldn't be
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: specific about anything she got wrong, and he couldn't find
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: any legitimate attack on her, so he had to just
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: go nuts. He also said Democrats need to turn the
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: temperature up. Turn the temperature up. How could they get
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: any angrier than they already are? How could they get
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: any matter? How could they yell and scream about Trump anymore?
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: How could they have more Trump arrangement syndrome than they
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: have now? So, yeah, socialism, listen, it's failed everywhere. Trying
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: socialism to be like betting on the New York Jets
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: to win. It's not a good idea. It's never going
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: to happen. Hey, Bill Ackman, the hedge fund Billionaire's a
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: nice guy, Bill Ackman. So he posted something. He's a
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: little too busy on Twitter and all that stuff, But
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: he said, I hear from many young men they find
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: it difficult to meet young women in a public setting.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: You know, younger, younger people are so busy on online meeting,
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: you know, to online dating apps, and that's how they
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: meet that. They have no idea how you could meet
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: somebody in person, So he said, young men are always
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: asking me. They have so much trouble meeting in person.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: I thought I would share a few words that I
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: used in my youth to meet someone that I found compelling.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: So Ackman goes on to say if he wanted to
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: meet somebody, he would walk up to her and say
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: may I meet you before engaging further in conversation. He says,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: I almost never got to know it inevitably worked, He said,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: I think the combination of proper grammar and politeness was
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: the key to its effectiveness. Give it a try, May
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: I meet you? Well, the way this turned out, Ackman
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: has been ridiculed all weekend online. He's getting just tarred
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: and feathered online. In fact, all you see are may
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: I meet you memes, just ridiculing poor Bill Ackman. It's
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: actually he's got a good point there, may I meet you? Yeah,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: I kind of get it. I mean he's got a
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: point there. But politeness, most guys aren't very polite or gentlemanly,
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: just be very polite, proper grammar that can be very
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know if i'd go and would you say
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: that to somebody?
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: He says.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: It's not just dating. He uses it in business situations.
• 15:20
