0:00
Speaker 1: Now more.
0:01
Speaker 2: Mark Simone on sevent TENR Well, we'll get to the
0:09
Speaker 2: state of the Union space coming up. It's only Wednesday.
0:13
Speaker 2: I don't know about where you are. It's not so
0:15
Speaker 2: great everywhere else, but here in Manhattan the snow is
0:18
Speaker 2: pretty much gone. It's a little bit today, but it's
0:21
Speaker 2: going to be warm for the next few days. That'll
0:23
Speaker 2: get rid of it all. It'll be forty or more
0:26
Speaker 2: through the weekend. That will get rid of it all.
0:29
Speaker 2: So the good news, there's no more snowball fights. Now.
0:31
Speaker 2: This is a downtown snowball fight. It started online. I
0:37
Speaker 2: think it was on TikTok or Instagram or somewhere. But
0:40
Speaker 2: they started organizing this and then hundreds of people, not kids,
0:45
Speaker 2: they looked like grown up people showed up for this
0:48
Speaker 2: snowball fight and it got out of control and there
0:50
Speaker 2: were a couple of hundred of these people throwing snowballs. Now,
0:52
Speaker 2: remember on Monday, this was at the height of the blizzard.
0:55
Speaker 2: It was wet, hard snow. When you make a wet snowball,
0:58
Speaker 2: it's very hard. It ice is up and it was
1:00
Speaker 2: freezing cold. So these are dangerous kind of snowballs, and
1:03
Speaker 2: they were throwing them everywhere. There were a couple of
1:05
Speaker 2: hundred of these kids in the neighbors. People in the
1:07
Speaker 2: neighborhood got very alarmed at this, called nine to one
1:10
Speaker 2: one and cops started to show up, and these crazy
1:14
Speaker 2: lunatics started throwing snowballs at cops and then hitting them.
1:17
Speaker 2: You saw the video cops getting hit in the head,
1:20
Speaker 2: getting hit in the face, and many of these snowballs
1:22
Speaker 2: were pretty hard and icy. It was an ugly thing.
1:26
Speaker 2: The police commissioner right after that put out a text
1:30
Speaker 2: saying a tweet saying that you know, they have a
1:35
Speaker 2: surveillance video, they're going to look, they can identify faces.
1:37
Speaker 2: They're going to start hunting down these people. That that
1:40
Speaker 2: was actually a criminal act. That's assaulting a police officer.
1:43
Speaker 2: It's actually a crime. You'll be arrested now. Then things
1:47
Speaker 2: changed when mayor mom Donnie shows up. Of course, this
1:51
Speaker 2: crazy goofy young college a kid who's never had a job,
1:55
Speaker 2: never worked, never manage anything, never run anything, bleeding heart
1:59
Speaker 2: left kook. So he wants to laugh the whole thing off.
2:03
Speaker 2: Ad they were just kids.
2:04
Speaker 1: I can just tell you from the video I saw
2:06
Speaker 1: it looked like kids at a snowball fight.
2:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, look at the video. I don't see any kids
2:11
Speaker 2: in the video. They don't look like kids. They're not children,
2:13
Speaker 2: they're grown up, they're adults.
2:15
Speaker 1: From the videos that I've seen, it looks like a
2:17
Speaker 1: snowball fight. I think that there were two officers who
2:20
Speaker 1: were facing lacerations on their.
2:22
Speaker 3: Face of those who builted them.
2:25
Speaker 1: Look, I've seen the videos of this snowball fight. I
2:28
Speaker 1: think that it was a snowball fight all right.
2:31
Speaker 2: Now, of course he's being a complete idiot. He's so
2:35
Speaker 2: blinded by his left wing nonsense. Now, if those were
2:39
Speaker 2: Muslims protesting something and they were getting hit in the
2:41
Speaker 2: face with snowballs, would it just be kids? Eh, just
2:43
Speaker 2: a snowball fight. If we're emom's being hit. If it
2:46
Speaker 2: were those crazy left wing ice protesters, if they were
2:50
Speaker 2: getting hit in the face with these snowballs by adult males,
2:53
Speaker 2: would it be just a snowball fight? Of course not.
2:56
Speaker 2: Police commissioner is right, The head of the PBA is right.
3:00
Speaker 2: It's criminal. It's a crime. These guys need to be
3:02
Speaker 2: tracked down, arrested. They've identified some fate. They've got some
3:05
Speaker 2: pretty good pictures of some of the faces. You can
3:08
Speaker 2: see them online or on TV. But is it a crime?
3:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. From the videos that I've seen, it
3:14
Speaker 1: looks like a snowball fight.
3:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it's a crime. It's criminal. It's not a
3:18
Speaker 2: snowball fight. First of all, the police didn't have any snowballs.
3:21
Speaker 2: A snowball fight means two people thrown at each other.
3:24
Speaker 2: The police did not have snowballs. They were not in
3:28
Speaker 2: the snowball fight. They were trying to keep order. And
3:32
Speaker 2: if you watch the videos, boy, you got to give
3:34
Speaker 2: these cops real credit amazing self control not to react
3:40
Speaker 2: to that. It was pretty intense to getting hit with
3:44
Speaker 2: these snowballs and they did not react. But it was
3:47
Speaker 2: not a snowball fight. But any stretch of the imagination,
3:50
Speaker 2: can you.
3:50
Speaker 1: Agree with Commissioner Tish that what happened in Washington Square
3:53
Speaker 1: Park with these snowballs was criminal? And how can you
3:56
Speaker 1: take steps to potentially like this doesn't happen again. So
3:59
Speaker 1: I've seen videos of kids drowing snowballs at members of
4:03
Speaker 1: the NYPD in Washington Square Park, And first I want
4:05
Speaker 1: to say that officers have been on the front line
4:08
Speaker 1: of helping our city respond to this blizzard. They have
4:11
Speaker 1: been keeping New Yorker safe and they have also been
4:15
Speaker 1: at the heart of our efforts of digging New Yorker's
4:18
Speaker 1: cars out of these kinds of conditions and ensuring that
4:21
Speaker 1: our ambulances, our MTA buses can keep functioning across this city.
4:25
Speaker 1: They and our entire city workforce deserve to be treated
4:29
Speaker 1: with respect. The only person in our city's workforce who
4:32
Speaker 1: deserves to be treated with a snowball is me.
4:35
Speaker 2: Okay, so now he's trying to cover his ass there,
4:38
Speaker 2: but he's heading down a very bad path here. He's
4:41
Speaker 2: going to end up like Deblasio. You remember Deblasio with
4:43
Speaker 2: his bad attitude towards the cops. It got to the
4:46
Speaker 2: point when that big public event, all the cops who
4:48
Speaker 2: had been lined to turn their back on him. You
4:50
Speaker 2: don't want to get into that kind of stuff. You
4:53
Speaker 2: don't want to end up like that. And this guy's
4:57
Speaker 2: probably smarter than Deblasio. The problem is that it's in
5:00
Speaker 2: an academic kind of way, so he doesn't have any
5:03
Speaker 2: real world experience or management experience. But President mentioning him
5:08
Speaker 2: last night in the speech, said, you know, he's a
5:11
Speaker 2: nice guy. He's a nice guy. Bad policies, but he's
5:14
Speaker 2: a nice guy. And the President mentioning in the speech
5:17
Speaker 2: he does talk to him regularly, so he keeps talking
5:19
Speaker 2: to him. Now, why keep saying he's a nice Well,
5:22
Speaker 2: sometimes people are nice. Guy. Sometimes these horrible people you
5:24
Speaker 2: see on TV in real life, they're nice people, but
5:30
Speaker 2: they're bad at their jobs. They really stink. I think
5:33
Speaker 2: the President thinks by keeping the conversation going with this
5:36
Speaker 2: guy that at some point he'll be able to have
5:39
Speaker 2: some influence on him. He's not going to turn him
5:41
Speaker 2: into a normal person, but at some point he may
5:45
Speaker 2: be able to get him in a back off on something.
5:48
Speaker 2: So I think he just sees some hope for helping
5:52
Speaker 2: this guy straightening me out, just to hair at some
5:55
Speaker 2: point he also Mom Donnie and AOC, these two nut jobs,
5:59
Speaker 2: these two left wing koos, did an ad which they
6:02
Speaker 2: posted its video. It's the most cringey thing in the world.
6:05
Speaker 2: It's basically telling illegals to sign up for illegals to
6:09
Speaker 2: sign up for daycare that taxpayers will pay for. They're
6:13
Speaker 2: getting a lot of flak for that, but hey, this
6:16
Speaker 2: is New York. You got enough crazy lunatics of elect
6:19
Speaker 2: people like AOC, people like this guy. State of the
6:23
Speaker 2: Union speech last night went very very well. If you
6:27
Speaker 2: don't believe me, put on MSNBC. Watch how angry they're
6:30
Speaker 2: there get and they're so angry about the speech. They're
6:32
Speaker 2: yelling and screaming and Morning Joe ranting and raving. Now,
6:36
Speaker 2: as soon as the presidents don't want these speeches, the
6:39
Speaker 2: fact checkers go to work and try to destroy him
6:41
Speaker 2: with the fact check. They were unable to find much
6:44
Speaker 2: of anything. Now, if you go to the real partisan,
6:49
Speaker 2: left wing kook sites like Mediaite, you know, they just
6:53
Speaker 2: always say crazy things. It says CNN's fact checker, blistering
6:59
Speaker 2: fact check on Trump's speech, fifteen false claim, fifteen lies,
7:04
Speaker 2: a blistering fact. Well, let's go see what the blistering
7:08
Speaker 2: fact they really found. Nothing. He said he inherited a
7:12
Speaker 2: stagnant economy. But inflation was already coming down under Biden. Yeah,
7:17
Speaker 2: but it's very misleading. Inflation is lower under Trump, much
7:21
Speaker 2: lower than under Biden. Biden had. The reason it was
7:24
Speaker 2: coming down was Biden was always had high inflation. At
7:27
Speaker 2: one point it went so high it went like through
7:29
Speaker 2: the roof to nine percent, highest in our lifetime, So
7:34
Speaker 2: you can't stay at that. It came down from nine
7:35
Speaker 2: percent to like six percent if it was still bad.
7:38
Speaker 2: It's so that fact check is just ridiculous. Now, one point,
7:42
Speaker 2: he claimed that there's plenty of states where gas is
7:44
Speaker 2: two dollars and thirty cents a gallon and in some
7:48
Speaker 2: places a dollar ninety nine a gallon. Well the fact checkers, oh,
7:51
Speaker 2: this is a total lie. Well it's not a total lie.
7:54
Speaker 2: It's absolutely correct. How does the fact checker try to
7:56
Speaker 2: claim it's a lie. Well, he says he checked with
7:59
Speaker 2: the true and there's no state where the average is
8:03
Speaker 2: a dollar ninety nine. Well he didn't say the average.
8:06
Speaker 2: Now for instance here, so somebody went into Oklahoma and
8:09
Speaker 2: found four gas stations that had a gas at a
8:12
Speaker 2: dollar ninety nine, So the present was correct. The fact
8:15
Speaker 2: checker really trying to stretch things. That's the one that
8:18
Speaker 2: drives people nuts, because that's the thing that we're yelling about.
8:20
Speaker 2: Gas prices. You know, it's four dollars a gallon, four
8:23
Speaker 2: point fifty five dollars a gallon. Six dollars a gallon
8:26
Speaker 2: in California. Still is you know, everywhere you go all
8:29
Speaker 2: over America, gas is about two dollars and thirty cents.
8:32
Speaker 2: If you're here in New York, it's still like four dollars.
8:34
Speaker 2: If you're in Connecticut Westchester, maybe it's three foot. Why
8:38
Speaker 2: is it so high when it's dropped dramatically, it's down
8:41
Speaker 2: to two dollars and thirty cents everywhere else, it's because
8:43
Speaker 2: of New York. They won't let it drop. They every
8:47
Speaker 2: time it's going to drop, they put more state tax
8:50
Speaker 2: on it. So when you see this continued high price
8:53
Speaker 2: of gas, it's all state tax. They kept the price
8:56
Speaker 2: high by state tax. Same thing in California. You know,
9:00
Speaker 2: it's still five six dollars a gallon. It should be
9:03
Speaker 2: two dollars and thirty cents like everywhere else, but the
9:05
Speaker 2: state keeps piling taxes on. So no fact checker is
9:10
Speaker 2: yet to find any real, actual false claim in the
9:13
Speaker 2: president's speech. Hey, in fact, we could fact check the media.
9:16
Speaker 2: They got a lot of things wrong. David Muir and
9:21
Speaker 2: Jonathan Carl ABC News, the President is you know, the
9:24
Speaker 2: first five ten minutes is the President coming down the aisle,
9:28
Speaker 2: shaking hands, taking selfies, people greeting him. And at one
9:33
Speaker 2: point he got to the Supreme Court justices and David
9:36
Speaker 2: Muir and Jonathan Carl to fake news guys, especially Carl said, look,
9:42
Speaker 2: at that he refused to shake hands with Amy coney Barrett.
9:46
Speaker 2: He shook hands with Kavanaugh, but not with Amy coney Barrett,
9:49
Speaker 2: who voted against him. Well, they got that wrong. He
9:52
Speaker 2: did shake hands with Amy coney Barrett. Now I'll give
9:55
Speaker 2: them a little pass on this, because there was a
9:59
Speaker 2: woman that walked down the aisle with President Trump. She
10:02
Speaker 2: was some kind of aid coming down the aisle with him,
10:05
Speaker 2: like escorting him. She looks exactly like Amy coney Barrett.
10:09
Speaker 2: So if you were looking fast, you see him shake
10:11
Speaker 2: Kabanough's hand and the woman is standing there, and he
10:13
Speaker 2: doesn't shake her hand. But the woman is with him,
10:15
Speaker 2: he wouldn't shake her hand, So it was an honest mistake,
10:18
Speaker 2: probably because she does. It's unbelievable the resemblance there. So hey,
10:26
Speaker 2: you know what's interesting the South Street Seaport. You ever
10:29
Speaker 2: been there? I see most people haven't been there for
10:34
Speaker 2: like thirty forty years. They've been trying to get the
10:36
Speaker 2: South Street Seaport going. Here in Manhattan, you know, the
10:40
Speaker 2: meatpacking district was a dangerous, isolated, terrible place. And then
10:45
Speaker 2: the great Irwin Cohen, the great New York legendary builder,
10:48
Speaker 2: built the Chelsea Market and it started to really take off,
10:53
Speaker 2: and then the whole everything took off around it, and
10:56
Speaker 2: that created the Meatpacking District and to this day it's
10:58
Speaker 2: one of the hottest places in manhatt Go down to
11:01
Speaker 2: the Meatpacking didition was a million great restaurants, hotels, stores,
11:06
Speaker 2: great stores and everything is there. Everything in the Chelsea Market,
11:10
Speaker 2: the whole first floors like an enormous food court. Millions
11:13
Speaker 2: of people down there go down to Tribeca. It's been
11:16
Speaker 2: in So they've been trying to do this with the
11:19
Speaker 2: South Street Seaport for about forty years now years ago.
11:24
Speaker 2: Remember it was a late eighties early nineties Dinkins administration.
11:28
Speaker 2: They're trying to really get the South Street Seaport to
11:31
Speaker 2: take off. Remember Carolines was a big comedy club downtown
11:36
Speaker 2: and they got her to close and moved to the big, big,
11:39
Speaker 2: big comedy club at South Street Seaport and she opened
11:43
Speaker 2: there and other stuff. I loved restaurants open there. There
11:45
Speaker 2: was Roeblings. There was all these great restaurants South Street Seaport,
11:48
Speaker 2: and one by one they all went out of business
11:50
Speaker 2: because nobody wanted to go down there. And Carolines closed
11:53
Speaker 2: and moved the Times Square where it flourished, so it
11:56
Speaker 2: never worked that South Street seaport. So about it was
11:58
Speaker 2: it five years ago. They decided to get it going
12:01
Speaker 2: again and they built with the tin building and they
12:05
Speaker 2: go all these top restaurants and they got John George
12:08
Speaker 2: to come down there and open the most incredible food
12:10
Speaker 2: hall ever and an amazing restaurant. Yeah it was twenty
12:16
Speaker 2: twenty two. Was that four years ago? And it was
12:19
Speaker 2: ten years in the making, big real estate guys, that
12:21
Speaker 2: we'll get this South three seaport going again. Ten years
12:24
Speaker 2: they worked on this, poured hundreds of millions of dollars
12:28
Speaker 2: into this, even though John John George deal was for
12:31
Speaker 2: two hundred million. So he opened it was going to
12:34
Speaker 2: be like Italy or the Chelsea Marty opened this incredible
12:37
Speaker 2: food hall, restaurants, unbelievable, luxurious, beautiful, unbelievable. Well it all
12:45
Speaker 2: closed last week. It all closed down. It's gone, it's closed.
12:49
Speaker 2: They couldn't get it going again. Just total lack of
12:53
Speaker 2: foot traffic. People blamed the ice relatively remote location along
12:59
Speaker 2: the East River. It's too far away from anybody commuting.
13:02
Speaker 2: It's not convenient to any subways. Anything you think about
13:07
Speaker 2: the Chelsea market, there's like twelve subways that go right there.
13:10
Speaker 2: It's easy to get to. It's right next to the village,
13:12
Speaker 2: it's right next to the so soho. Try back South
13:15
Speaker 2: Street te boards like the middle of nowhere. They cannot
13:18
Speaker 2: get it going. It was kind of the same with
13:21
Speaker 2: Hudson Yards, although Hudson Yards is different. Hudson Yards has
13:24
Speaker 2: a lot of apartment buildings an office building, so you
13:27
Speaker 2: got a bunch of people that are there anyway, and
13:30
Speaker 2: it's not that isolated. It's like a few blocks from
13:34
Speaker 2: Penn Station. But South Street Seaport. I don't know what
13:37
Speaker 2: they're going to ever do at that place. Hey, Martin Short,
13:40
Speaker 2: this is just terrible. Another great tragedy in Hollywood. Martin Short,
13:47
Speaker 2: his daughter Catherine killed herself. She was only forty. They
13:50
Speaker 2: just had a big birthday party for big splashy birthday
13:54
Speaker 2: party at a restaurant with Goldie Hawn was there, Katherine O'Hara,
13:58
Speaker 2: Joni Mitchell. That was the idol. Joni Mitchell even named
14:03
Speaker 2: her dog after Joni Mitchell. Fortieth birthday party and his daughter,
14:08
Speaker 2: Katherine was a social worker and then went later to
14:12
Speaker 2: her apartment committed suicide. TMZ reported she was found dead
14:16
Speaker 2: with a self inflicted gunshot wound. It's just horrible, Martin Short,
14:23
Speaker 2: you know. And Martin Short, he's been through a lot
14:24
Speaker 2: of death. His former wife died, his brother died, his
14:27
Speaker 2: parents died, and now this. Now they say that the
14:31
Speaker 2: daughter was suffering from some sort of mental illness and
14:36
Speaker 2: had problems all along. So we'll see what he says.
14:40
Speaker 2: He hasn't really commented yet. Hey, an American Airlines plane
14:43
Speaker 2: lands in Miami. It had been in Colombia, in South
14:46
Speaker 2: South America, Columbia. It lands in Miami. You know, when
14:50
Speaker 2: a plane lands, they do a quick inspection, you see
14:53
Speaker 2: what mostly to clean the planet. But it lands from Colombia.
14:58
Speaker 2: During the inspection, they find a number of bullet holes.
15:01
Speaker 2: Bullet holes in the plane from Columbia. Now, if you
15:04
Speaker 2: hit the right stuff, in fact, it hit the right
15:08
Speaker 2: aleron whichever that is, which helps control the balance of
15:11
Speaker 2: the plane, it can cause a crash if well. Luckily,
15:15
Speaker 2: with all these bullet holes it didn't and the plane
15:17
Speaker 2: was able to land. Okay, hey, we'll take some calls. Next.
15:19
Speaker 2: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten is
15:23
Speaker 2: the number eight hundred three two one zero seven ten
15:27
Speaker 2: seven ten wrs Mark Simon, Hey, let's take some calls.
15:33
Speaker 2: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number.
15:37
Speaker 2: Let's go to Fred in Florida. Fred, how are you doing.
15:41
Speaker 4: I'm doing fine now, Mark. Yeah, just like the comments
15:44
Speaker 4: and all these Democrats that didn't stand up last night
15:47
Speaker 4: because they're criminals, and they need criminals because they're criminals,
15:52
Speaker 4: and that they don't want to vote or any then.
15:55
Speaker 2: I mean maybe a lean elon Omar might be a criminal,
15:59
Speaker 2: but then criminals they're just nuts.
16:01
Speaker 4: I mean no, they're waiting for something to wind these
16:04
Speaker 4: people up, and they want to get them going and
16:06
Speaker 4: actually put the midterms, and they need these people.
16:10
Speaker 2: Here who yeh, no, but they're not criminals. They're and
16:12
Speaker 2: you should make fun of the sick. They're sick. They
16:14
Speaker 2: have a disease Trump to arrangement syndrome. It's affecting them.
16:18
Speaker 2: They don't realize how many traps were set for them.
16:21
Speaker 2: They fell right into each one of them. The whole
16:23
Speaker 2: real purpose of that speech last night was to get
16:25
Speaker 2: video for midterm campaign ads of Democrats acting crazy at
16:30
Speaker 2: the state of the Union. And they've come away with
16:32
Speaker 2: tons of videos. You'll be seeing these moments in ads
16:35
Speaker 2: all over the place in the fall. Let's go to
16:38
Speaker 2: Randall in Maryland. Randall, how you doing.
16:41

16:51
Speaker 2: kid and you throw snowballs at cars coming by, and
16:54
Speaker 2: all of a sudden the cops showed up and you
16:56
Speaker 2: were in big trouble. Would you ever think that throw
16:57
Speaker 2: the snowball at the cop.
17:01
Speaker 3: I've lived in me George stations in the States. No

Speaker 2: No, you shouldn't get away with it. I mean, listen,
17:11
Speaker 2: we're in the crazy left wing Kooki Mamdani world. Things
17:14
Speaker 2: are different now. If the good old days and you
17:17
Speaker 2: threw snowballs at cops, I just openly hit him with snowballs,
17:21
Speaker 2: you would the cops would give you what Curtis would
17:26
Speaker 2: call a wooden shampoo, the night sticks would come out,
17:29
Speaker 2: and you'd learned not to throw snowballs at cops. Let's
17:33
Speaker 2: go to Jim in New Jersey. Jim, how you doing him?
17:36
Speaker 6: Mark?
17:37
Speaker 7: Mark? You were talking yesterday about consequential presidents being assassinated.
17:41
Speaker 7: Did you know that one of our assassinated presidents died
17:44
Speaker 7: at the Jersey Shore. I mean, he wasn't on vacation,
17:46
Speaker 7: but he died at the Jersey Shore.
17:48
Speaker 2: No, who was that.
17:50
Speaker 7: James Garfield? He was shot in the.
17:53
Speaker 2: Old James Garfield.
17:54
Speaker 7: He was shot in the old railroad station in d C.
17:58
Speaker 7: And he suffered for three in Washington with horrible medical care.
18:02
Speaker 7: So they built him a special train and he took
18:05
Speaker 7: him to Elberon, New Jersey, at the Jersey Shore, where
18:08
Speaker 7: he eventually died.
18:10
Speaker 2: Okay, but back then, you're talking about a million years ago,
18:12
Speaker 2: there was no Jersey. It wasn't the same Jersey Shore.
18:14
Speaker 2: There weren't a million.
18:15
Speaker 7: Uh, there was no It was near Red Bank, Elberon.
18:19
Speaker 7: Ok That was no base theater back then, Mark one,
18:24
Speaker 7: more than speaking of the Jersey Shore. That you know
18:26
Speaker 7: that Ulysses S. Grant was born in Point Pleasant.
18:29
Speaker 2: No, I didn't know that. Ohio. Oh all right, yeah,
18:35
Speaker 2: Bank March. All right, thanks for calling. We've never had
18:37
Speaker 2: a Jersey Have we ever had a New Jersey present? Yeah,
18:40
Speaker 2: I'm sure we have. I can't remember who, but I'm
18:42
Speaker 2: sure we have. Let's go to Bruce in Franklin. Bruce,
18:45
Speaker 2: how you doing? All right, Let's go to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent,
18:50
Speaker 2: how you doing.
18:51
Speaker 5: Good morning, Mark, Mark, I'm okay, Good morning Rich, Good
18:54
Speaker 5: morning Mara. Back in the day, had you even deigned
18:57
Speaker 5: to throw a snowball out of the top, cop would
19:00
Speaker 5: have got out of the car, and as you pointed out,
19:03
Speaker 5: as Kurtas said, you would have got a wooden shampoo
19:07
Speaker 5: on your legs, on your head, everywhere. Mark, Abigail Spamberg
19:14
Speaker 5: is probably the worst person they could have chose to
19:18
Speaker 5: do the rebuttal to Trump's speech. She as soon as
19:22
Speaker 5: she got an office, she ran as a moderate. Soon
19:25
Speaker 5: as she got an office. As we say in Italy
19:28
Speaker 5: the Chinese and China, if it walks, they eat it
19:31
Speaker 5: with her. If it doesn't walk, if it's dead, she'll
19:36
Speaker 5: tax it. She wants to tax car work, auto mechanic words,
19:41
Speaker 5: the dog walkers.
19:43
Speaker 6: She wants the.
19:43
Speaker 5: Guy taxed, nail salons, gyms, everything.
19:48
Speaker 6: Mark.
19:48
Speaker 5: I've been in the real estate business for a long
19:51
Speaker 5: time and during the I've had some even famous Hollywood
19:58
Speaker 5: editors living my yeah no square business.
20:03
Speaker 6: Mark.
20:03
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna drop any names, but one guy in particular.
20:08
Speaker 5: I mean, I've.
20:09
Speaker 6: Members like ilain Omar and Tahleeb and AOC. It seems
20:15
Speaker 6: like the group, the liberal group from like twenty five
20:20
Speaker 6: to forty, they're completely out of their birds. The old liberals,
20:25
Speaker 6: like in their seventies. They're probably too decrepit.
20:31
Speaker 2: You're right, Liberals used to be a good thing. Daniel
20:34
Speaker 2: Patrick moynihan, Bill Clinton, common sense. Okay, liberals, that's different exactly.
20:39
Speaker 5: It seems like these people are totally out of their bird.
20:44
Speaker 5: I mean even look look at all the people that
20:48
Speaker 5: protested New York. Look Mandam, he's a perfect example. He's
20:53
Speaker 5: the he's the spawn of this liberal society.
20:59
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, it started with the universities decades ago. They
21:03
Speaker 2: became left wing cook and document and doctrination centers, and
21:06
Speaker 2: you end up with AOC's and mom Donnie's coming out.
21:09
Speaker 2: I can't who knows what's coming next. I can't even imagine, Vincent,
21:13
Speaker 2: great call, thanks for calling. Well, usually it turns around,
21:16
Speaker 2: usually goes in cycles. This has been one very long
21:19
Speaker 2: cycle here here. Well we'll ask we'll ask Ann Coulter next,
21:22
Speaker 2: and we'll find out what she thought of the State
21:24
Speaker 2: of Union speech. And a whole lot more to get
21:27
Speaker 2: too coming up right after the news On seven to ten, wor.
21:31
Speaker 6: Mark Simone on sevent ten wor.
21:36
Speaker 2: Well it is right now the best selling author that
21:38
Speaker 2: a great columnist and culter. Make sure you're following her
21:41
Speaker 2: on Twitter even better, Substack where she's got her column
21:45
Speaker 2: and videos, podcasts, interviews, all kinds of stuff and culter
21:48
Speaker 2: dot substack dot com and culture.
21:52
Speaker 6: How you doing fantastic?
21:54
Speaker 8: How are you mark someone excellent?
21:56
Speaker 2: I thought the President's speech last night was maybe one
21:58
Speaker 2: of the top three or four speed ever given.
22:02
Speaker 8: I totally agree it was magnificent. Again, but Trump I've
22:07
Speaker 8: been waiting for, and it reminded me what I like
22:11
Speaker 8: about him. He is just so thoroughly from the heart American.
22:17
Speaker 8: And when the Democrats would not would not acknowledge Americans
22:23
Speaker 8: killed by illegal aliens and a few other times, and
22:27
Speaker 8: he just said, these people are crazy, and you won't
22:30
Speaker 8: stand for that. It is the reaction of just a
22:35
Speaker 8: normal human being, a normal American. Anyway, It really illustrates
22:39
Speaker 8: that that they, the Democrats, really hate our country.
22:44
Speaker 2: You're talking about this moment here.
22:45
Speaker 1: Nobody says, up, these people are crazy.
22:49
Speaker 2: Now, you're not supposed to talk like that when you're
22:51
Speaker 2: a president. But you're right. It's great. He's a real person.
22:54
Speaker 2: He's not a politician.
22:56
Speaker 8: Yes, And I think you're not supposed to root for
22:58
Speaker 8: Americans to be killed by foreign earth when you're an
23:03
Speaker 8: elected member of Congress, as long as we're talking about
23:06
Speaker 8: things you shouldn't do.
23:10
Speaker 2: Now, a lot of this what he did, were traps
23:12
Speaker 2: that he was setting for the Democrats, and they've from
23:16
Speaker 2: last night it wasn't The real purpose of speech was
23:19
Speaker 2: to get tons of video clips to use in campaign
23:22
Speaker 2: ads against them in the midterms. How why did they
23:25
Speaker 2: fall into every trap?
23:26
Speaker 7: He said?
23:29
Speaker 8: Uh, if it was a trap, I mean, it just
23:31
Speaker 8: seems like those are Trump's positions. It didn't seem phony
23:38
Speaker 8: to me. He keeps pushing for a really hit immigration hard,
23:42
Speaker 8: which of course was is the reason he was elected
23:46
Speaker 8: more than anything else, so that's important. And Democrats are
23:51
Speaker 8: on the other side. So I don't even think I
23:56
Speaker 8: find it hard to believe that this was like carefully planned.
24:00
Speaker 2: It was.
24:00
Speaker 8: It was well, everybody knew that this is what he
24:04
Speaker 8: ran on, and everybody knew. The Democrats have decided to
24:07
Speaker 8: oppose basic common sense on that as well as on transgenders. Don't.
24:14
Speaker 8: I don't know why they. I mean, I guess the
24:17
Speaker 8: progressive base of the Democratic Party just has them, really
24:23
Speaker 8: really has a lot of power. Why would they, whether
24:26
Speaker 8: it's in a State of the Union address or on
24:30
Speaker 8: the campaign trail or answering questions on TV? Why would
24:34
Speaker 8: they not be opposed to Ille Lilian's killing Americans? Why
24:38
Speaker 8: would they? Why would they support these mangol A like
24:42
Speaker 8: experiments of poisoning and mutilating little little children, teenagers or
24:50
Speaker 8: anyone really who's decided they're in the wrong gender.
24:53
Speaker 2: Yeah. So, but there's some Democrats who are in that credit.
24:58
Speaker 2: They're kind of normal, like Tom swaz See, the congressman
25:01
Speaker 2: from Long you think, a common sense normal. But they
25:03
Speaker 2: were afraid to stand up. So that was really kind
25:06
Speaker 2: of sad. A fetterman afraid to stand up. What do
25:10
Speaker 2: you think?
25:10
Speaker 8: Well, every time I think one of them is normal,
25:14
Speaker 8: they then very quickly disabused me of that. I mean,
25:18
Speaker 8: ro Kanna is supposed to be like mister moderate and
25:21
Speaker 8: he will not give up on his support for transgenders
25:24
Speaker 8: in women's sports.
25:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, And the image of elon Omar shouting and screaming
25:30
Speaker 2: and pointing her finger and that other nut job next
25:32
Speaker 2: to her, We're going to see that in a lot
25:34
Speaker 2: of campaign ads. Aren't we.
25:37
Speaker 8: I would hope. So, as you know, I'm often complaining
25:40
Speaker 8: about the ads Republicans run if they do it right, Yes,
25:45
Speaker 8: I agree with you. They got a lot of good
25:47
Speaker 8: ones from last night. They should have.
25:49
Speaker 2: I know it was a great speech because I don't
25:51
Speaker 2: know if you saw a morning show this morning, but
25:52
Speaker 2: he was screaming like a maniac and he said it
25:56
Speaker 2: was the single most racist speech ever given by any American.
26:01
Speaker 8: Oh, that's fantastic. I did not see it. Sadly, I
26:04
Speaker 8: was finishing my column last night, so I was up
26:07
Speaker 8: kind of late and very disappointed. I missed Morning Joe,
26:11
Speaker 8: So thank you for filling me in that you are right.
26:14
Speaker 8: That is completely waving the white flag. When they started,
26:18
Speaker 8: sured in with the it was racist, Well what was racist?
26:22
Speaker 2: And then he said the idea of using the phrase
26:25
Speaker 2: Somali pirates, it's the most racist thing.
26:28
Speaker 8: But this is like the Wuhan virus. I'm with Trump.
26:34
Speaker 8: These people are crazy.
26:36
Speaker 2: So but are they crazy or are they just so
26:39
Speaker 2: caught up with Trump derangement syndrome that they're just not
26:42
Speaker 2: thinking straight right now?
26:45
Speaker 8: It seems to be going on and on. I mean,
26:47
Speaker 8: it's really hard to distinguish what they actually believe from
26:51
Speaker 8: how much they hate Trump. They could have they could
26:57
Speaker 8: have maintained at least what they were pretending was their
27:01
Speaker 8: position on immigration under Obama and Clinton, and that is,
27:05
Speaker 8: we have to have a border and we have to
27:07
Speaker 8: deport illegals. I don't know why they couldn't have done that,
27:11
Speaker 8: But they seem to have latched onto Trump's most popular
27:14
Speaker 8: policies and oppose him on those. I noticed they don't
27:17
Speaker 8: particularly oppose him on pointless foreign wars.
27:23
Speaker 2: Curious that, Well, there's a lot of contracts.
27:25
Speaker 8: We'll pose him on something he deserves being.
27:27
Speaker 2: Opposed on, Well, foreign wars. There's a lot of contracts
27:31
Speaker 2: to hand out the donors, so they don't want to
27:32
Speaker 2: oppose that. A lot of defense contracts to hand out
27:38
Speaker 2: on those wars. Hey, but we're talking of this. Before
27:41
Speaker 2: there were old fashion liberals that were fine. There was
27:46
Speaker 2: Daniel Patrick moynihan and Bill Clinton, I mean, normal liberals.
27:50
Speaker 2: What happened to these people are they? Did they just
27:52
Speaker 2: become extinct? Yes?
27:56
Speaker 8: Well, I mean it's pretty much everything. Our country is
28:00
Speaker 8: a function of immigration. We've changed the people there used
28:05
Speaker 8: to be normal Democrats, you know, among the voting populace.
28:08
Speaker 8: But I mean Democrats couldn't get a majority of white
28:14
Speaker 8: people to vote for them other than lbj's blowout in
28:19
Speaker 8: sixty four, since the nineteen thirties, well since since FDR.
28:25
Speaker 8: So they had to bring in, bring in ringers. Now
28:30
Speaker 8: we are a fifty to fifty country, not because Americans
28:33
Speaker 8: changed their minds or Democrats' arguments were so oh, they're
28:36
Speaker 8: so clever, they persuaded me. No, they brought in people
28:40
Speaker 8: from from less free countries who do not believe in
28:47
Speaker 8: freedom and free speech and capitalism. And they're the ones
28:51
Speaker 8: who who are filling up the Democrats voting lists. Well,
28:56
Speaker 8: plus the illegal aliens we aren't supposed.
28:58
Speaker 3: To be voting.
28:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, even the normal ones. You know, you go back
29:01
Speaker 2: ten years, twelve years. Look at the video of the Clintons,
29:04
Speaker 2: of Chuck Schumer, of Obama. They're all talking about it.
29:06
Speaker 2: We must have a border. We've got to deport illegals.
29:08
Speaker 2: And so did they just go nuts.
29:11
Speaker 8: Or they got foreigners who came to our country don't
29:14
Speaker 8: believe America should have a border. They don't really care
29:18
Speaker 8: that much for our country. They certainly don't care for
29:21
Speaker 8: our traditions, and they certainly can't grasp capitalism, the free market,
29:27
Speaker 8: or free speech. Oh on guns, Oh my gosh. Polls
29:30
Speaker 8: have shown this. Incidentally, I've written about this over and
29:32
Speaker 8: over and over again. That is why the Democratic Party
29:36
Speaker 8: is changing. That is why Virginia flipped from fairly red
29:41
Speaker 8: to solid blue. It isn't the government workers, it's the immigrants.
29:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, did you see the snowball attack on cops.
29:50
Speaker 2: They're getting hit in the face with these snowballs. I'm
29:52
Speaker 2: sure you saw that. But mom, Donnie said, they're just
29:55
Speaker 2: a bunch of kids. They all look like thirty five
29:58
Speaker 2: year old ex convicts.
29:59
Speaker 8: I mean they didn't look like it's me and yes,
30:02
Speaker 8: and snowballs made of ice, I mean they can blind you,
30:06
Speaker 8: they could knock you out. This is this is something
30:10
Speaker 8: that's always driven me crazy about the liberals love throwing
30:14
Speaker 8: things in people's faces. Things you don't know what they are.
30:16
Speaker 8: Anything coming at your face is in fact, it's a
30:20
Speaker 8: good technique to use in a fight. Throw something at
30:23
Speaker 8: somebody's face. It's it's frightening you don't know what it is.
30:29
Speaker 8: And it's always annoyed me that that people will sniff
30:32
Speaker 8: at Oh, it was just a marshmallow pie or oh,
30:35
Speaker 8: just a milkshake. Yeah, you don't know what's in it.
30:38
Speaker 8: It's coming straight at your face. And in this case,
30:41
Speaker 8: it's very hot, something very hard and capable of doing
30:46
Speaker 8: enormous damage coming at your face. No, this was I
30:49
Speaker 8: think a serious assault. I'm with the police union. And
30:52
Speaker 8: for Monnami to sniff that it was just a snowball fight,
30:57
Speaker 8: I mean, the only response is to is to subject
31:01
Speaker 8: mom nommy to just a snowball.
31:05
Speaker 2: You know, years ago there was that football game. I
31:07
Speaker 2: forget which team, but they decided to throw snowballs at
31:10
Speaker 2: the other team, the fans, and they blinded a coach.
31:13
Speaker 2: He got hit in the face and was blinded by
31:15
Speaker 2: a snowball.
31:16
Speaker 8: That's awful, but I'm not at all surprised. Yeah, of
31:19
Speaker 8: course you could blind someone and and it's irresponsible and
31:24
Speaker 8: sophistry to say just a snowball, just a pie, you
31:29
Speaker 8: don't know what's in it. It's something coming at your face.
31:32
Speaker 2: Sophistry. I like that word. I'm going to use that today.
31:34
Speaker 2: She always has these words where you can sound very smart.
31:39
Speaker 2: I'm going to say that to something. Somebody says something
31:42
Speaker 2: that's just sophistry.
31:47
Speaker 8: It's deceptive logic.
31:49
Speaker 2: Just in case, what does sophistry mean?
31:51
Speaker 8: It's deceptive logic.
31:53
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, I'm using that word today.
31:57
Speaker 8: I'm sure there's a better Dictionary death mission of it.
32:00
Speaker 2: But no, that's very good, the perfect word. Well, that's
32:03
Speaker 2: why you should read and Coulter and get her books
32:05
Speaker 2: and make sure you follow her on Twitter, and make
32:08
Speaker 2: sure you sign up for her substack. There's great stuff, videos, columns,
32:12
Speaker 2: all sorts of stuff and Culter dot substack dot com
32:17
Speaker 2: and Culter. Thanks for being with us.
32:19
Speaker 8: Good to talk to you. Mark Simon, bye bye, all right,
32:21
Speaker 8: take care.
32:22
Speaker 2: Oh don't forget Buck and Clay Noon today. Buck has
32:25
Speaker 2: a new book out by the way, coming out. We'll
32:27
Speaker 2: talk to He'll be with us later this week and
32:30
Speaker 2: they'll be talking about the president speech last night at
32:33
Speaker 2: a new and then three o'clock the most listened to
32:35
Speaker 2: radio show of all Sean Hannity, we'll talk about it.
32:37
Speaker 2: And then you got Jesse Kelly at six and Jimmy
32:40
Speaker 2: Fayal a great show, very funny nine o'clock tonight on
32:43
Speaker 2: seven to ten. Wor in Mark on demand by setting
32:49
Speaker 2: up presead for his podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
32:53
Speaker 7: Now back to Mark Simon on wor.
32:57
Speaker 2: Well, President's speech considered a great, great State of the
33:02
Speaker 2: Union speech, very successful. The immediate polling takes place afterwards,
33:06
Speaker 2: looks very good. The focus groups where they were the
33:10
Speaker 2: good posters, not the fake ones, but the good posters.
33:12
Speaker 2: Focus group people showed him getting a spike in independent voters.
33:17
Speaker 2: That's the key to winning the midterms. You don't win
33:19
Speaker 2: with your base. You only win by whoever gets the
33:21
Speaker 2: most of the independent voters. So that's good. Now he's
33:24
Speaker 2: going to get a big bump from the speech. Problem
33:26
Speaker 2: is sometimes that bump doesn't last too long. You can
33:28
Speaker 2: just go a few weeks. But Democrats acted so crazy
33:32
Speaker 2: last night, and so you know, the yelling, the screaming,
33:36
Speaker 2: the ugly pointing, and the not standing up. So the
33:42
Speaker 2: President also ended up with hundreds and hundreds of video
33:45
Speaker 2: clips that will be used in campaign ads for the
33:49
Speaker 2: midterms to go after Democrats with Hey, it's thirty five
33:53
Speaker 2: degrees right now, so the snow is starting to melt.
33:55
Speaker 2: It's going to go into the forties today. Looks like
33:58
Speaker 2: it'll be in the forties till months day. That should
34:01
Speaker 2: get rid of the snow. Now there's a chance of
34:03
Speaker 2: snow on Monday, but two three inches maybe if that,
34:06
Speaker 2: if that happens, but otherwise the snow will be melting
34:09
Speaker 2: every day. Now, Hey, we're out of time. Don't go away.
34:12
Speaker 2: Buck and Clay are next. I'll be back tomorrow. I'm
34:14
Speaker 2: here every day ten to noon. Thanks for listening, Thanks
34:18
Speaker 2: for everything. Talk to you later seven to ten. Woo
