• 1:17
  Speaker 1: You know the question I got to answer the most
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: on Friday night when I went to see Steve Whitcombe
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: and what with Bruce Blakeman so we can speak at
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: the home of Bob and LEWYNA Dave Roberts in Southampton.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: The question I got answerd the most by Barr was now, now,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: how was Trump this afternoon? How was the shot out
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: with Blakeman? No, it was is John Katson with Titi's
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: coming Friday night.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: I swear to you, well, you know I don't leave
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: the studio just six fifteen, right, and it's this Then
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: you had an escort to the Hampton. I did, so
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: I didn't get to the HNDTI for nine o'clock and
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: the you know, everything's over by nine o'clock on Friday night.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: It really was. It was over, I think about eight thirty.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: But it's a great showing. Bo Diitles showed up. Zann
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Miller was there too, and they did a great job.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Lesten all day between President and Trump in Nassau County,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: yourk County doing a roction you on something, but doing
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: a great job with Bruce Blakeman, all the Long Island leaders.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: John all the police that was so special and some
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: of these victims. And when I have a lady on
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: what after you mcdalia Martinez, whose twelve year old son
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: was murdered in the Bronx just three weeks ago. It
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: was just an emotional, great afternoon. And then the again
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: the fundraiser that night with Witkop and Bruce. It seems
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: to me, John Canton matitieuz I got friend Bruce Blakeman
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: has a lot of momentum.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Well I think he he has a good chance and
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: he has a lot of momentum. You know, Lee Sheldon
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: came within a few points. And the big mistake with
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Lee it turns out to be Campia a Monday Morning quarterback.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: Is the abortion issue. Even Republican women have a big
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: problem with the abortion issue. They they feel that women
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: should be free to do whatever they want with their bodies.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: And when I ran for mayor in twenty thirteen, I said,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: it's up to the woman, it's up to her doctor
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: and up to her family. And that's it. I mean,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: you can't force her. You can't force women to do
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: with something they don't want to do.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Couldn't agree more. It's funny because they categorize me and
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: described me and every article, and they what about me
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: every day? You know that's true, John, every day as
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: this staunch conservative. In the meantime, I'm like you, I'm
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: pro choice. How could I be a staunch Yes when
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: it comes to money, when it comes to war, you bet.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: I'm a stornch conservative. But I'm pro choice on four
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: gay marriage. How does that make me or you staunch conservatives?
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: We're New York conservatives, right, we are pro people. We
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: listened when I win as a liberal, a Republican liberal
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: in twenty thirteen and I was in Staten Island. People say,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: how are you a liberal? I say, you know how,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: I'm a liberal. I take care of the poor kids
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: of the inner city because now I'm chairman of Powell.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: At that time I was only I don't know what.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: I was vice chairman of a board member. And we
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: take care of the kids of the inner city because
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: we have a heart. We want to have the people
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: that are sick in hospitals, not in the subways in
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: New York. So I'm more liberal than some of the
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: people in Aubany because that we used to have twenty
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: eight thousand people in Bellevue type institutions and guess what
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: not as five thousand and eight thousand and seven thousand.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: You know where the rest of them are in the
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: subways and the streets in New York, and those people
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: deserve to be cared for, opened up. You know, take
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Rikers Island, you for a biggion dollars instead of spending
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: fourteen billion dollars a new jails. For a biggion dollars,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: you can make Rikers Island a beautiful place for a
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Bellevue type institution where people need help. They need to
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: logs every day, not to be in the streets of
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: New York, not to be in in the uh subways. Uh,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: you need to take take the vets off streets, give
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: him a home, take the take the bellevue type people
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: and need institutions. Put him there and and improve the
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: facility of Briker's Island. Uh, instead of building jails in
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: the neighborhood near you. I mean, who wants it to
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: jail in in Manhattan or Queens or or in Brooklyn
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: or or even the Bronx and Staten Island definitely doesn't
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: want it. I mean, we got to do the right
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: thing for the people in New York and I think
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: that's what it is. And I think, look, Kathy Hoko,
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: I know her very well. She's a very nice lady.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: But I think that she is being pushed by the
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: mayor of the year City of New York, which is
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: going in the wrong direction. And I said that to.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Him, but you can't do that. You're the governor. You've
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: got more power than the mayor. And you're right, Mayor, Mom,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Donnie runs the city, runs the state right now is
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: becoming the face of the Democrat Party, which is another
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: issue for them as we get ready for the midterms.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: But that shouldn't be the case. And a strong leader
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: would never let that happen. But she's not. She's not strong,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: she's weak. She may be nice. I don't know her.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I don't want to know.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Say, look, Lee's Elden Caterberry close. I think Bruce Playbrin
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: if he promises quality of life, if you promise him,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: you know, Nasau County is the safest county in the
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: United States. At twenty five hundred and thirty eight counties
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: in the United States, Nassau County is the safest. So
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: I mean he believes in law enforcement. Nasau County is safe.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Suffolk County is safe. You know that's one. A lot
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: of people come to Nasau and Suffer County. And I
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: had my guy who's one of our advertisers bureau, the
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: moving guy from Florida, on the Sunday Show, and he
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: says more people are starting to move down from New York.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: And don't forget JP Morgan has opened up the bigger
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: facility in Texas and in New York. Yep Fank America
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: bigger facility in Texas than in New York. So we're
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: going to slowly bleed to death. And New York City,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: New York State. All the politicians. I love New York.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: I want to save New York. All the politicians should
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: realize that we're in trouble if it keeps coming like that.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: No question. Last one. I was honored John because you know,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I was in the Hamptons on Friday night, and if
• 7:39
