Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Be with you on a Friday. Go straight to our
- 0:01Speaker 1: busy phones at ten twenty eight. Chris and Beth Page,
- 0:04Speaker 1: Long Island. How did you fare with the weather? Chris?
- 0:08Speaker 2: Uh, okay, you know a little dicey, but uh okay,
- 0:11Speaker 2: you know I was watching it and uh, you know,
- 0:14Speaker 2: make sure my whole family was home and uh not bad.
- 0:17Speaker 2: Beth Page is kind of in the middle. They got
- 0:18Speaker 2: killed down on the South Shore Atlantic Piece.
- 0:20Speaker 1: Sure, so I that's not what you called about. I
- 0:24Speaker 1: decided to ask while I had you good morning tonight.
- 0:27Speaker 2: I made that, okay, but thanks for asking so many
- 0:29Speaker 2: I can. The reason I'm calling is I really got
- 0:31Speaker 2: to disagree with you, Okay. I've heard a lot of
- 0:34Speaker 2: my friends that have said similar things about, you know,
- 0:38Speaker 2: what is Trump doing with Irene? And he should have?
- 0:40Speaker 2: You know, the midterms. Let me tell you something. I
- 0:43Speaker 2: followed Calshi Markets. You know there are sites that show
- 0:47Speaker 2: the odds of doing some winning something and you can
- 0:49Speaker 2: gamble on them. I've been following since January. As far
- 0:52Speaker 2: as the midterms and the Senate, Okay, you know, it's
- 0:56Speaker 2: always been about eighty percent favorite. The Dems were going
- 0:59Speaker 2: to win long before Iran. I'm just telling you that
- 1:01Speaker 2: we went in on February twenty eighth. Okay, so it
- 1:05Speaker 2: was never going our way.
- 1:07Speaker 1: I'm just back, I got it back. I'll let you
- 1:09Speaker 1: continue talking. I'm not going to cut you up. But
- 1:12Speaker 1: there have been several national polls that showed just the opposite.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Cal She. Remember, is this small subset of people who
- 1:18Speaker 1: like to gamble, people who like to buy lottery and gamble.
- 1:22Speaker 1: They're the ones who go to cal She. And it's
- 1:23Speaker 1: it's like ninety percent male, ten percent female. So there's
- 1:26Speaker 1: a very different different demographic as to call She. That's
- 1:30Speaker 1: not the call She's been right on a lot of things,
- 1:33Speaker 1: but when it comes to that, I don't necessarily buy
- 1:35Speaker 1: call She. It's the it's the momentary pulse, like that
- 1:39Speaker 1: moment of a subset of opinion that goes on cal She.
- 1:43Speaker 1: But you know, there were poles that showed that as
- 1:45Speaker 1: the economy was turning, as oil was dropping oil prices,
- 1:50Speaker 1: things were starting to look like even if we were
- 1:52Speaker 1: to lose, it would be right down to the line.
- 1:54Speaker 1: Now it's looking like a landslide for the Democrats. So
- 1:58Speaker 1: that's where I politely disagree. I part ways with you
- 2:00Speaker 1: on that, but please continue, go ahead, Chris.
- 2:02Speaker 2: All right, And then I got to push back on you.
- 2:05Speaker 2: It's either way, it's not going to be a landslide, okay,
- 2:08Speaker 2: because do you know how many literally houses seats are
- 2:11Speaker 2: up for you know, there's not that many. It's it's
- 2:14Speaker 2: it's very and.
- 2:15Speaker 1: We have a uh, every every house seat is every
- 2:19Speaker 1: house seat? Is you mean you mean which one might
- 2:21Speaker 1: might change? You mean which one might flip?
- 2:23Speaker 2: You mean you know what I mean? Right now? Yeah,
- 2:26Speaker 2: And it's it's been a very narrow amount because I've
- 2:30Speaker 2: been following this, Ken, I'm just saying I've been following
- 2:33Speaker 2: this and the fact that this whole Iran thing is
- 2:36Speaker 2: ruining it. It's just I'm glad Trump didn't like this
- 2:40Speaker 2: is the reason I called I'm glad Trump did what
- 2:42Speaker 2: he did when he did it, okay, because I don't
- 2:45Speaker 2: think you should ever worry about, oh, we're going to
- 2:47Speaker 2: lose the midterms. If I don't do this, let me
- 2:50Speaker 2: do it after the midterms. And I've heard him in interviews.
- 2:53Speaker 2: We disagree here. He says we're much closer, and you
- 2:57Speaker 2: you you kind of poo poot it. You're like Irene,
- 3:01Speaker 2: were they really gonna get one? He had information that
- 3:03Speaker 2: they were. I'm glad he went in when he did.
- 3:06Speaker 2: I was so happy on February twenty eighth, and just
- 3:09Speaker 2: let the court let things go where they may. I'm
- 3:12Speaker 2: not critical at all of what he's doing to Iran.
- 3:15Speaker 2: Every day that he goes after them is a good day,
- 3:17Speaker 2: and I don't care if he does it before the
- 3:19Speaker 2: midterms or after the midterms. They're clearly the number one
- 3:22Speaker 2: problem in this world.
- 3:24Speaker 1: Chris. Remember, remember we had absolute, die hard information that
- 3:28Speaker 1: we had weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
- 3:31Speaker 3: Die absolutely die.
- 3:33Speaker 1: We and I was the biggest defender of going in.
- 3:37Speaker 1: We had absolute information and then we found some chemicals
- 3:40Speaker 1: on the side of the road. Turns out that wasn't
- 3:43Speaker 1: even true. None of it was true our information. Either
- 3:46Speaker 1: the information was wrong or it was intentionally wrong because
- 3:49Speaker 1: they wanted you know, they talk about it. You get
- 3:51Speaker 1: the conspiracy theorists and the military industrial complex and the
- 3:55Speaker 1: money that's made and everything else. That's a whole other
- 3:58Speaker 1: argument for another day. But point the point is initial,
- 4:01Speaker 1: and we got it. We have to go to the news.
- 4:02Speaker 2: So finished, I'll let you go. But Ken Israel got
- 4:05Speaker 2: us this information. We haven't lost that many soldiers. Okay,
- 4:09Speaker 2: so much different from the Iraq War. That was so different.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Israel got us this information, we went in, how did
- 4:17Speaker 2: we kill forty of their leaders? By the way, think
- 4:20Speaker 2: of that that we killed forty of their lives?
- 4:22Speaker 1: Actually, you know how honestly? You know, you know how right?
- 4:25Speaker 1: Did you know?
- 4:26Speaker 2: How? Yeah?
- 4:27Speaker 1: They we set up. We set up the cameras. They
- 4:29Speaker 1: literally their their cameras that like we have the cameras
- 4:33Speaker 1: and the traffic and everything else. We actually watched their
- 4:36Speaker 1: limos going into a meeting. That's how we killed most
- 4:40Speaker 1: of them. We watched their cars, We saw the license
- 4:42Speaker 1: plates as each limo pulled into a building for a meeting.
- 4:45Speaker 1: We bombed the building. That's how they killed most. So
- 4:47Speaker 1: if it's not that they went to their individual houses
- 4:50Speaker 1: at specific dimes and took them out, it was brilliant.
- 4:52Speaker 1: It got me wrong, but it was a lot more
- 4:55Speaker 1: one shot, one time killed them all than people realize.
- 5:00Speaker 2: Well, look at the information we had, That's what I'm saying.
- 5:02Speaker 2: You can't compare it to what.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Well that was that was online. It was it was
- 5:05Speaker 1: literally on the internet for anybody to glean and we
- 5:07Speaker 1: just somebody said, hey, you realize all their traffic cams
- 5:10Speaker 1: are online just like ours. I mean, God forbid the same.
- 5:14Speaker 1: The same could happen us. We better be very careful.
- 5:17Speaker 2: And you don't think I Ran was close to getting
- 5:18Speaker 2: a nuclear weapon. That's just no.
- 5:20Speaker 1: I do think. But the question is, remember two years
- 5:22Speaker 1: ago we said they were right on the verge, and
- 5:24Speaker 1: they weren't. It took two years. So were they, like
- 5:26Speaker 1: tomorrow going to have a nuclear weapon? Maybe they were.
- 5:29Speaker 1: But the fact is, if we had this much information
- 5:31Speaker 1: that we could go in and knock them out in
- 5:33Speaker 1: a day, then we could have waited two more weeks
- 5:35Speaker 1: and knocked them out in a day, or three more
- 5:37Speaker 1: months and knocked them out in a day. That's the
- 5:39Speaker 1: point I'm trying to make. And I listen. I don't
- 5:42Speaker 1: say you're wrong. I could be totally wrong, Chris. I
- 5:45Speaker 1: just hope and keep our fingers crossed. Things don't turn
- 5:48Speaker 1: entirely against this in the fall. I think we're both
- 5:50Speaker 1: on the same page, just with tiny differences. It's like
- 5:52Speaker 1: we're brothers who both love Mom, only we love her
- 5:55Speaker 1: in a slightly different way. That's all Chris and Beth Page.
- 5:57Speaker 1: I appreciate that they're always you sho call back any time.
