0:00
Speaker 1: This is seven tor Boy. The Mark Simoon Show starts.
0:05
Speaker 2: Now.
0:16
Speaker 1: Well, there's a lot going on. There's a new airport
0:19
Speaker 1: in Palm Beach. It's causing all kinds of uproar. We'll
0:23
Speaker 1: get to Graham Platnir he's out. We'll get to FIFA,
0:25
Speaker 1: We'll get to the building collapse. More details coming out.
0:29
Speaker 1: We'll get to the latest on Iran, Ukraine, and a
0:34
Speaker 1: whole lot more. So. It happened this morning they officially
0:37
Speaker 1: changed the name of the Palm Beach Airport, the one
0:40
Speaker 1: in West Palm Beach, Palm PBI Palm Beach International Airport
0:44
Speaker 1: is now Donald J. Trump International Airport. The code is
0:50
Speaker 1: DJT the airport code. I lobbied a lot of people
0:54
Speaker 1: in the White House to have the code b TDS.
0:59
Speaker 1: I was on successful. TDS would be a great code
1:03
Speaker 1: for that airport. Now it was officially renamed. It happened
1:09
Speaker 1: this morning Donald J. Trump International Airport. Guess what the
1:12
Speaker 1: first plane was to land? It was Trump Force one.
1:17
Speaker 1: Eric Trump got up extremely early. This is the Trump plane,
1:22
Speaker 1: the Trump company plane. This is Trump Force one, and
1:26
Speaker 1: he flew down. There was the very first to land
1:30
Speaker 1: at the new Donald J. Trump International Airport. Now, it's
1:33
Speaker 1: not unusual to name an airport after a president. We
1:36
Speaker 1: got a whole bunch of them. I think we've got
1:38
Speaker 1: twelve of them around the country. Usually happens where the
1:42
Speaker 1: president lived or was born his home state. You know,
1:46
Speaker 1: there's an Abraham Lincoln Airport in Illinois. It happens frequently.
1:50
Speaker 1: It's not unusual, not unusual. So, as predicted, a lot
1:58
Speaker 1: of people are going crazy, the left because to get
2:02
Speaker 1: to this airport, you got to pass fifty signs and
2:05
Speaker 1: say Donald J. Trump International Airport. You got to take
2:08
Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump Boulevard to get there. Everywhere you look
2:12
Speaker 1: when you get in this airport Donald J. Trump International.
2:14
Speaker 1: So the left crazy, temper tantrum, crying, left wingers, the
2:20
Speaker 1: Trump haters can't deal with it. So, believe it or not,
2:25
Speaker 1: they're traveling another hour or two to go to a
2:28
Speaker 1: different airport if they have to fly. I'm not kidding.
2:31
Speaker 1: If they're living the Palm Beach area, there's such whiny
2:36
Speaker 1: temper tantrum Trump haters, they will not go to the airport.
2:39
Speaker 1: They'll drive an hour to Fort Lauderdale Airport. Some even well,
2:43
Speaker 1: listen to one of them. I think they're crazy. They
2:45
Speaker 1: want to get on N ninety five and drive an
2:47
Speaker 1: hour south or two hours north. Go right ahead.
2:50
Speaker 3: But you know what, just because of a name change,
2:54
Speaker 3: to change your airport.
2:55
Speaker 1: Come on, all right, Well that's a normal person. But
2:57
Speaker 1: here's one of these Trump arrangements syndrome idiots.
3:00
Speaker 4: I think it's a joke, and I'm gonna fly in
3:02
Speaker 4: and out of Orlando from now on to get to
3:05
Speaker 4: my destination.
3:09
Speaker 1: One of the great things about that Palm Beach Airport
3:12
Speaker 1: for years is it smaller airport. It's like the Westchester Airport,
3:16
Speaker 1: very easy to get in and out of, less delays.
3:20
Speaker 1: It's like an old fashioned, convenient kind of airport without
3:23
Speaker 1: the terrible lines. And also, if all these Trump arrangements
3:27
Speaker 1: syndrome idiots are going to go somewhere else, great, great,
3:30
Speaker 1: it'll be even easier to get in and out of
3:31
Speaker 1: that airport. Also, you know if you're getting on a
3:34
Speaker 1: plane out of the Palm Beach Airport that you won't
3:37
Speaker 1: be sitting next to some left wing crazy I guess
3:41
Speaker 1: if they're flying down there, you have to make arrangements.
3:43
Speaker 1: They'll they'll have to fly to Fort Lauderdale or Miami,
3:47
Speaker 1: Orlando and an extra hour two These are the same
3:53
Speaker 1: Trump arrangement syndrome idiots. They're yelling and screaming about conserve
3:58
Speaker 1: fuel and don't use too much, but here they'll drive
4:01
Speaker 1: an extra hour or two just because they don't like
4:04
Speaker 1: the name. Now, in response to this, there's a big
4:10
Speaker 1: movement in a democratic world to rename O'Hare International Airport
4:15
Speaker 1: after Obama, Chicago's hometown. So it would be Obama International Airport.
4:24
Speaker 1: And I guess the left fields that they've got to
4:26
Speaker 1: go tit for tat. I guess they also feel that
4:29
Speaker 1: this would be he would Obama would win. It's a
4:31
Speaker 1: bigger airport, you know, it's probably the major hub of
4:36
Speaker 1: American airlines and airports. So watch for this big push
4:41
Speaker 1: now to change that name. In Iran, we have been
4:46
Speaker 1: hitting them hard all night. We've hit about ninety five
4:49
Speaker 1: targets so far. Military targets were hitting them extremely hard
4:55
Speaker 1: and the strikes will continue.
4:58
Speaker 4: It's going to happen very fair. We have the harmo straight,
5:03
Speaker 4: the boats have pulled out. I mean, it is a
5:06
Speaker 4: gusher of oil right now. We have a lot of
5:07
Speaker 4: oil and no anything that happens is going to happen
5:11
Speaker 4: very fast.
5:12
Speaker 1: Yeah. Now Iran is making all kinds of threats. There's
5:16
Speaker 1: a threat. Yeah, there'll be grave consequences. You know, they've
5:20
Speaker 1: attempted to kill President Trump in the past. They are
5:23
Speaker 1: now trying to kill them again.
5:25
Speaker 4: I mentioned it only because it's on the list. I
5:27
Speaker 4: mean that came out. There was another list came out yesterday,
5:30
Speaker 4: and I'm I'm number one on. I like being number
5:33
Speaker 4: one on TikTok better, but I'm number one on the
5:36
Speaker 4: list for killing.
5:39
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, and as he said, he got lucky the
5:41
Speaker 1: last couple of times, but you know, sometimes your luck
5:44
Speaker 1: runs out. Now, the President was in Turkey for the
5:47
Speaker 1: NATO conference with the brand new enormous Air Force one,
5:51
Speaker 1: you know the plane that cutter landed, the Flying Palace,
5:55
Speaker 1: the enormous plane. But when it came time to leave
5:59
Speaker 1: Turkey Key yesterday, he had the old Air Force one
6:02
Speaker 1: brought in so he could leave on that. And he
6:06
Speaker 1: made up some excuse but didn't didn't pass the smell
6:09
Speaker 1: test that the reason was the new Air Force one
6:14
Speaker 1: was in England so that the members of the military
6:16
Speaker 1: could visit it and see it doesn't ring true. Why
6:21
Speaker 1: would he then have that old Air Force one brought
6:24
Speaker 1: in instead of the new one? Apparently they were really
6:28
Speaker 1: really worried about an attack on Air Force One, and
6:33
Speaker 1: that's the reason he did it. The new Air Force One,
6:35
Speaker 1: it's the plane that Cutter lent Us went through incredible
6:39
Speaker 1: rebuilding and it took a customer a couple hundred million
6:44
Speaker 1: to refit it put in all the security stuff, all
6:47
Speaker 1: the communications stuff, and make it into an Air Force One.
6:50
Speaker 1: Costs a lot of money, but apparently it doesn't have
6:54
Speaker 1: some of the things that Air Force One has. One
6:57
Speaker 1: is anti missile defenses. So they were worried about this
7:01
Speaker 1: new Air Force One getting hit or the President getting
7:04
Speaker 1: attacked with missiles in the air over that part of
7:07
Speaker 1: the world. So the old Air Force One, which has
7:09
Speaker 1: full anti missile defense, brought in, which means they're taking
7:13
Speaker 1: this threat very very very seriously. But we're going to
7:18
Speaker 1: keep going. This bombing, this war in Iran will continue
7:23
Speaker 1: for days and days and days. It's going to get
7:26
Speaker 1: heavier and heavier, and President saying Iran is calling. They're
7:30
Speaker 1: trying to work out something, but as it gets real serious,
7:34
Speaker 1: we may have to take out all their infrastructure, maybe
7:37
Speaker 1: even carg Island, which is where all of their oil
7:40
Speaker 1: is stored.
7:40
Speaker 5: We attacked carg Island. Last night we knocked out a piece.
7:43
Speaker 5: I said, don't touch the oil because maybe we'll take
7:47
Speaker 5: over car Island. We may take over carg Island. It's
7:51
Speaker 5: not a thing they can do about it.
7:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, and now, if we took out carg Island, Iran
7:56
Speaker 1: would be out of the oil business for many years.
7:58
Speaker 1: It would take a long time to rebuild, and that
8:00
Speaker 1: might drive the price of oil a little crazy. But
8:02
Speaker 1: we could seize it too, and just take the oil
8:06
Speaker 1: and distribute it. As I said, they're calling. There's some
8:11
Speaker 1: sort of a little negotiation going on, but the President
8:14
Speaker 1: Trump no longer trust them.
8:15
Speaker 6: As far as I'm concerned, it's over.
8:17
Speaker 4: I'll speak to our negotiators. They want to negotiate.
8:20
Speaker 7: They're good people, Steve Woodcuff, Jared Gusher, but they have
8:24
Speaker 7: to come back to me.
8:25
Speaker 4: As far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of
8:28
Speaker 4: time dealing with them.
8:28
Speaker 3: They're liars.
8:30
Speaker 4: Yeah, so they're not doing a service to the people.
8:33
Speaker 4: And I think more than anything else is I got
8:35
Speaker 4: to know them, and I'm not sure I want to
8:38
Speaker 4: make a deal with them. We can play games, but
8:40
Speaker 4: I'm not sure I want to make a deal. Let's
8:41
Speaker 4: just finish the job.
8:43
Speaker 1: Well, and so people have been yelling for the weeks
8:45
Speaker 1: and weeks and weeks and weeks of the ceasefire, finish
8:48
Speaker 1: the job, finish the job. Now that he's going to
8:50
Speaker 1: finish the job, they'll be yelling, what the hell you're doing,
8:52
Speaker 1: Stop finishing the job. But this looks pretty good. If
8:57
Speaker 1: you're watching MSNBC or CNN, or or reading the New
9:00
Speaker 1: York Times, all you see these articles about how the
9:04
Speaker 1: problem is he's not negotiating from strength like the previous administrations.
9:08
Speaker 1: He's negotiating from weakness, not strength. Well, it wasn't negotiating
9:12
Speaker 1: from strength. Paying ransom, putting billions of dollars on a
9:17
Speaker 1: plane and sending it. That's just paying ransom. Blowing them
9:20
Speaker 1: the hell up. That's pretty much a position of strength.
9:23
Speaker 1: They're all hiding in caves from bombings, so it's a
9:27
Speaker 1: position of strength that we have hey over there. In
9:30
Speaker 1: those NATO talks, he told Spain we would cut them
9:34
Speaker 1: off completely. They weren't contributing their money to NATO. We
9:39
Speaker 1: were going to cut them off all together. Apparently, just
9:42
Speaker 1: this morning, Spain has caved in. They will now pay
9:45
Speaker 1: their full share. Zelensky and Trump met, they got along
9:49
Speaker 1: pretty well. Zelensky is doing very very well in that
9:53
Speaker 1: war against Russia. He's built his own factories, produces his
9:57
Speaker 1: own drones. What's next, Well, maybe those patriot missiles. President
10:03
Speaker 1: agreeing with him, maybe will show them how to build
10:05
Speaker 1: patriot missile factories.
10:07
Speaker 5: A little birdie told me this about the fact that
10:11
Speaker 5: we'll give them the right to make patriots, will show
10:14
Speaker 5: them how to do it. It's very complex, actually, but
10:17
Speaker 5: it's uh, you'll figure out the complexity quickly.
10:21
Speaker 1: Yeah. So if they because they were very good at
10:23
Speaker 1: figuring out how to build drones and opening their own factories,
10:26
Speaker 1: so drones and patriot missiles, they'll be all set. Russia
10:30
Speaker 1: won't be able to make any progress. In fact, they'll
10:33
Speaker 1: probably start losing territory, which is why Putin is talking
10:36
Speaker 1: to Trump again. We have a lot of.
10:37
Speaker 5: Pressure on President Putin.
10:40
Speaker 6: You know, I don't think he likes what's going on.
10:43
Speaker 6: I don't think he likes I don't think he's thrilled
10:45
Speaker 6: with what's happening. There's a lot of pressure on President
10:49
Speaker 6: Putin to get it done. I think there's pressure on
10:51
Speaker 6: everybody to get that one done.
10:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty embarrassing for Putin. It was supposed to
10:55
Speaker 1: be this massive superpower, incredible, powerful military, and they've been
10:59
Speaker 1: in a stalemate with this little rinky dinky Ukraine for
11:02
Speaker 1: five years now.
11:03
Speaker 4: You know, I used an analogy and it sounds simple,
11:07
Speaker 4: but it's sort of true.
11:08
Speaker 7: You have two kids in a park and they don't
11:11
Speaker 7: like each other, or they start fighting. Sometimes you have
11:14
Speaker 7: to let them fight, let them see that it's tough.
11:18
Speaker 2: You know, it's tough.
11:19
Speaker 6: Fighting is tough.
11:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I see what he means. Though, if you
11:23
Speaker 1: can settle this, at least Putin, who had always talked
11:26
Speaker 1: about taking another piece of territory going into another country,
11:30
Speaker 1: may have learned his lesson and that may all be
11:33
Speaker 1: on hold for now. Hey, that building collapse forty second
11:39
Speaker 1: between second and third, close to traffic. It looks like
11:41
Speaker 1: they're going to reopen it a little because yesterday and
11:45
Speaker 1: overnight they think they have They haven't fixed the problem.
11:49
Speaker 1: The problem was the steel was buckling, the beams were buckling.
11:52
Speaker 1: They think they've put a temporary something in there to
11:55
Speaker 1: hold those beams up. They think they've stabilized the building.
11:59
Speaker 1: This is now well, this is nowhere near fixing the problem.
12:02
Speaker 1: You still got the problem. They may have to take
12:04
Speaker 1: down the twenty floors they put on top, they may
12:07
Speaker 1: have to take down the whole building. Who knows. This
12:09
Speaker 1: is going to take a long investigation by experts, but
12:13
Speaker 1: they think they've stabilized it. So they've opened up the
12:16
Speaker 1: area to some traffic so it's not as bad as
12:18
Speaker 1: it was now. This developer apparently has another building where
12:25
Speaker 1: he's been you know, all sorts of claims. He's facing
12:28
Speaker 1: almost four hundred million dollars in claims for taking shortcuts
12:32
Speaker 1: on the construction. So this developer, it is the craziest
12:35
Speaker 1: thing I've ever seen where this building collapse, this old
12:39
Speaker 1: Pfizer building, decided to build twenty new stories on top
12:42
Speaker 1: of part of it, and the beams couldn't hold twenty
12:47
Speaker 1: stories of a building above it. They weren't able to
12:49
Speaker 1: hold that kind of weight. You would think architects, engineers
12:53
Speaker 1: could know that and figure that out ahead of time.
12:55
Speaker 1: But if this is the case with this other building
12:59
Speaker 1: where he takes shortcuts and doesn't use the best people,
13:02
Speaker 1: well you're going to see probably a billion dollars worth
13:05
Speaker 1: of lawsuits here. But they're building thirty seven stories. The
13:10
Speaker 1: Nathan Berman is the managing principal and founder of this company.
13:15
Speaker 1: What he said sounded a little crazy. He said, it's
13:21
Speaker 1: not a bad it's not a big thing. It's not
13:23
Speaker 1: a total collapse. It's a localized collapse. Well that's a collapse.
13:29
Speaker 1: There's either no collapse or it's a collapse. It's a
13:31
Speaker 1: localized collapse. And he said this incident is nothing more
13:37
Speaker 1: than a typical construction mishap. All right, that's about the
13:42
Speaker 1: dumbest statement anybody could make. The last thing this is
13:46
Speaker 1: is a typical construction mishap. Typical construction mishap is you
13:51
Speaker 1: forget to tie down some materials in a big wind,
13:54
Speaker 1: some bricks or something flies off the scaffold. Collapse is
13:59
Speaker 1: not a typical construction mishap. So if he's saying absolutely idiotic,
14:04
Speaker 1: insane things like that, you know you can't listen to
14:07
Speaker 1: anything this guy says. The city officials looking at it,
14:12
Speaker 1: they said, the way the buildings constructed, steel frame building,
14:16
Speaker 1: it's not likely that it would topple. If there's a
14:19
Speaker 1: collapse of some kind, it it would pancake down. That's
14:24
Speaker 1: the way the World Trade Center was built, you know,
14:27
Speaker 1: back in nine to eleven. Had it not been built
14:29
Speaker 1: that way, it would toppled. It would have gone for
14:32
Speaker 1: five six blocks, but it pancaked down on itself. So
14:35
Speaker 1: this building would do that. But they believe they've got
14:40
Speaker 1: the temporary fix to just stabilize it and give them
14:43
Speaker 1: some time to figure out what to do. A lot
14:46
Speaker 1: of this building's going to have to come down most likely.
14:50
Speaker 1: There's probably no other way to fix this. Hey, well,
14:53
Speaker 1: take some calls. Next eight hundred three two one zero
14:56
Speaker 1: seven ten is the number eight hundred one zero seven
15:01
Speaker 1: to ten. It's the Mark.
15:03
Speaker 3: Simon Show Live from the Double R Life back studio.
15:11
Speaker 1: Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to Frank in Arizona. Frank,
15:15
Speaker 1: how you doing.
15:17
Speaker 8: Good morning, Mark, Mark not a platinus dropped out of
15:20
Speaker 8: the race. Does he get to keep any of the
15:22
Speaker 8: money he raised?
15:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can keep the money.
15:25
Speaker 3: Oh he hit the lottery.
15:26
Speaker 8: Basically, well, yeah.
15:28
Speaker 1: You can keep your money. Now you're supposed to only
15:31
Speaker 1: this is just you keep it on the basis that
15:33
Speaker 1: you'll be running another campaign in the future and you're
15:35
Speaker 1: keeping it for that and you're really only allowed to
15:38
Speaker 1: spend it on campaign expenses. But you can you can
15:41
Speaker 1: stretch that out. You could pay for your office, your car,
15:44
Speaker 1: your driver, your secretary. You can pay for it with that.
15:46
Speaker 8: And he says he wants his wife to run instead
15:49
Speaker 8: of him.
15:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that way, good luck.
15:53
Speaker 1: Keep raising money. Yeah, we'll talk about blattin. They're coming up.
15:55
Speaker 1: It's a ridiculous situation. Democrats, you know, they go nuts
16:00
Speaker 1: when they try to copy Republicans, you know, and they
16:03
Speaker 1: tried to during the Bush years. Well, we'll find a
16:05
Speaker 1: military guy. They find John Kerry who had been in
16:09
Speaker 1: the military for two weeks fifty years ago and looked ridiculous.
16:12
Speaker 1: And the same thing with Platnir. We'll find a working man.
16:15
Speaker 1: This was their idea of a working man. This cape
16:18
Speaker 1: fear looking lunatic. Let's go to Rich in Myrtle Beach.
16:23
Speaker 3: Rich How you doing, Hey, Thanks Mark. You know, I'm
16:26
Speaker 3: glad Trump is finally I'm the biggest Trump supporter, is
16:29
Speaker 3: I one the guy who run twenty five years ago.
16:30
Speaker 3: I'm glad to see he's finally gonna you know what,
16:32
Speaker 3: and get off the pot and go do what he's
16:34
Speaker 3: supposed to do. I went shopping with my buddy Ray yesterday.
16:38
Speaker 3: Gas was three point thirty one. We came back an
16:40
Speaker 3: hour and a half later it was three fifty nine.
16:42
Speaker 3: It went up twenty eight cents in an hour as
16:45
Speaker 3: soon as he dropped the first bomb. Now Trump's gonna
16:48
Speaker 3: have to I called my senators, get on your companies.
16:51
Speaker 3: If we're producing our own oil, we shouldn't be having anything.
16:56
Speaker 1: Is the problem we produce. Not only are all our
16:58
Speaker 1: own oil, we produced more than we could ever. We're
17:00
Speaker 1: the biggest seller of oil in the world. If you
17:02
Speaker 1: tell them you got to cut the price, they'll just
17:06
Speaker 1: pump less. They'll they'll just drill less, and they'll cut
17:09
Speaker 1: down the supply. They'll raise the price that way. So
17:14
Speaker 1: either way you're gonna have this.
17:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, we need to get the prices down for somewhere
17:17
Speaker 3: tourism and traffic.
17:18
Speaker 1: I understand. But if you make them cut the price deliberately,
17:21
Speaker 1: they'll just cut the supply and then eventually the price
17:23
Speaker 1: will come back up.
17:24
Speaker 3: But that would be a falsehood mark because we will
17:28
Speaker 3: well know this.
17:29
Speaker 1: We all know this.
17:30
Speaker 3: No, you can't claim all right, we all know that.
17:32
Speaker 1: But that's the problem there. So it's but the only
17:35
Speaker 1: good news out of all of this with the Iran
17:38
Speaker 1: war is we are the biggest supplier of oil in
17:41
Speaker 1: the world. And more countries are now buying from US.
17:43
Speaker 1: Thirty percent more oil being sold now by US oil companies.
17:47
Speaker 1: We are now the biggest supplier of oil all over
17:50
Speaker 1: the world. A lot of people realizing you've got to
17:52
Speaker 1: be careful with Iran oil because it makes things like
17:55
Speaker 1: this could happen. The only reliable, steady stream is from
17:58
Speaker 1: the US. So thirty percent sent more countries now buying
18:01
Speaker 1: their oil from US. Let's go to Bob in Connecticut. Bob,
18:05
Speaker 1: how you doing Mark?
18:07
Speaker 9: It's corrupt. It's not Connecticut.
18:09
Speaker 1: Well, people. People may not realize you've had a couple
18:13
Speaker 1: of governors go to jail, like every mayor of Bridgeport,
18:17
Speaker 1: the Waterbury of Hartford, a lot of mayors have gone
18:20
Speaker 1: to jail there. It's a big pocket of corruption there.
18:24
Speaker 9: Yes, definitely. But I think it's a great idea to
18:28
Speaker 9: change the name of the airport because think about this,
18:32
Speaker 9: if you want to aggravate the socialist communist Democrats, that
18:39
Speaker 9: every city has a Martin Luther King Boulevard. And he
18:44
Speaker 9: was a registered Republican because he knew these people were evil.
18:50
Speaker 10: Don't tell people it was a Republican. They don't know
18:52
Speaker 10: that he was.
18:53
Speaker 1: Oh, I know, but they don't like that. Yeah, he
18:55
Speaker 1: was anti abortion, he was. He was a real Republican.
18:58
Speaker 1: But don't tell anybody, they'll go crazy.
19:00
Speaker 9: See if they find out that's why the Democrats in
19:03
Speaker 9: their army, which is the Klan, had him killed.
19:08
Speaker 1: Well, no, we don't know, we don't know exactly what
19:10
Speaker 1: happened there. But Lincoln was a Republican. Martin Luther King
19:14
Speaker 1: was a Republican. Don't tell everybody that. They'll get all
19:16
Speaker 1: upset if.
19:16
Speaker 3: They hear that.
19:17
Speaker 2: Let's go to Pat in Westchester. Pat, how you doing
19:20
Speaker 2: any mark you know that buys a building that's about
19:24
Speaker 2: to collapse. There was a plan that's a residential makeover. Yeah,
19:29
Speaker 2: after what happened. If you recall them a few years
19:32
Speaker 2: back with coming in Florida, the entire building tipped over.
19:36
Speaker 2: Savvy New York is good luck to the guide frying
19:39
Speaker 2: the solos, the promise the.
19:40
Speaker 1: People, Yeah, they'll have to tear down everything they put.
19:42
Speaker 1: What they did is they try to add another twenty
19:44
Speaker 1: floors on one side of the building. It's a strange,
19:49
Speaker 1: these big office buildings, the idea of converting them to residential.
19:53
Speaker 1: It's a tough thing to do. It's not easy because
19:57
Speaker 1: in an office building. Now Here we are in a
19:59
Speaker 1: big skyscraper. Right here, we're on the sixth floor of
20:01
Speaker 1: a major skyscraper. There's only one bathroom. Well, it's two.
20:06
Speaker 1: There's a ladies room and a men's room. Way down
20:08
Speaker 1: on that end of the floor. It's the men's room
20:11
Speaker 1: and ladies room. And that's it. Now, if you have
20:14
Speaker 1: a residential building, you got to have a bathroom, like
20:17
Speaker 1: every fifty feet you got to you know, if you
20:20
Speaker 1: have fifty apartments on the floor, you've got to build
20:23
Speaker 1: fifty bathrooms, and then you have to build fifty kitchens.
20:26
Speaker 1: So you have to add all of this stuff to
20:28
Speaker 1: each floor. It's not easy to do, and then you
20:31
Speaker 1: have to lay it out differently. It's really tough to
20:35
Speaker 1: convert an office building residential. And this one it looked
20:39
Speaker 1: like kind of a ridiculous project. It's a thirty seven
20:41
Speaker 1: story building and then we're going to convert it to
20:45
Speaker 1: sixteen hundred residential units. Have you ever heard of a
20:48
Speaker 1: building with sixteen hundred apartments in it? That's a lot.
20:52
Speaker 1: It's kind of ridiculous. It's great if you're the doorman,
20:55
Speaker 1: because it's sixteen hundred tenants At Christmas time. Don't have
20:58
Speaker 1: to tip you, but it sounds a little crazy. Let's
21:01
Speaker 1: go to Joseph in Manhattan. Joseph, how you doing?
21:05
Speaker 10: Okay, Mark, good morning? Now not democrat Nazi tattoo. Graham
21:11
Speaker 10: Cracker has cracked. We can go back to simpler times.
21:15
Speaker 10: I like, remember when Democrat Anthony Wiener was chex texting.
21:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, these democrats, I'm sure Republicans you can name a
21:24
Speaker 1: few of too, but maybe with the sex stuff. But
21:27
Speaker 1: I can't.
21:28
Speaker 3: You don't.
21:28
Speaker 1: You're not gonna be able to come up with a
21:29
Speaker 1: Republican with a big Nazi SS death camp tattoo right
21:35
Speaker 1: in the middle of his chest. And yeah, this is
21:39
Speaker 1: a I mean, it's kind of fun watching democrats just
21:42
Speaker 1: shoot themselves in the foot here. But well, we'll get
21:45
Speaker 1: into it a little later. We'll get the platiner in
21:47
Speaker 1: the next hour. Hey, when we come back to hunt
21:49
Speaker 1: for Steve Moore, we'll have we'll talk to the brilliant
21:51
Speaker 1: economist Steve Moore. Lots to talk to him about coming
21:54
Speaker 1: up next to gas prices oil. We'll get to all
21:56
Speaker 1: of that on seven to ten w R markimone on
22:01
Speaker 1: seven ten wor Well, Steve Moore, the Great economists, brilliant economists.
22:11
Speaker 1: And he's got a wonderful book that you should read,
22:14
Speaker 1: The Trump Economic Miracle. It really explained to you, see
22:17
Speaker 1: you clearly, the Trump Economic Miracle. And he runs the
22:20
Speaker 1: Committee to Unleash Prosperity and they put out the best
22:24
Speaker 1: daily briefing, news analysis. You'll sound super smart if you
22:28
Speaker 1: read this every day and it's free. Come write to
22:31
Speaker 1: your email. Just go sign up Unleashed Prosperity dot com
22:34
Speaker 1: and sign up for the hotline. Steve Moore, how you doing, Hey, Mark?
22:39
Speaker 3: Doing well?
22:40
Speaker 8: Really good? I think the economy is looking better every day,
22:44
Speaker 8: although I'm a little worried about the issue with what's
22:46
Speaker 8: going on and around. But if we can get that
22:48
Speaker 8: oil price down, I think all systems are going. We've
22:51
Speaker 8: got a construction boom going on in manufacturing, investment boom,
22:54
Speaker 8: as Larry Cudler would say, so we got a stock
22:57
Speaker 8: market boom. So I like, what's going on in America.
23:00
Speaker 8: Got to do something about getting that straight of hormones.
23:02
Speaker 8: Every time we think we're past that crisis, it seems
23:05
Speaker 8: that were uped again.
23:07
Speaker 1: Okay, but we intensified bombing. If this goes for let's
23:11
Speaker 1: say eight weeks at the most. We could get through that,
23:13
Speaker 1: can't we.
23:14
Speaker 8: Yeah, and well listen, I mean I'm not an expert
23:17
Speaker 8: on foreign policy, but I'm here to say that when
23:19
Speaker 8: when that you know, energy, those owner energy channels are
23:23
Speaker 8: back open, there's a very good chance we're going to
23:26
Speaker 8: see a real economic boom. By the way, you know,
23:29
Speaker 8: we had to doll up at over fifty three thousand.
23:31
Speaker 8: I think it's fallen a little bit since then, but
23:33
Speaker 8: that's so incredible. I mean, when I first came to Washington,
23:35
Speaker 8: it was one thousand, fifty three thousand. That shows you
23:38
Speaker 8: the power of the American economy.
23:40
Speaker 1: Well, hey, explain this to me years ago, many many
23:44
Speaker 1: years ago. Nelson Rockefeller his dream was to run for president,
23:47
Speaker 1: but he had been divorced. Yeah, they said, well a
23:49
Speaker 1: divorce man, it's just too much. You can't run for president.
23:52
Speaker 1: How is it now? You could have a Nazi tattoo
23:54
Speaker 1: on your chest while you're raping something and it's fine,
23:58
Speaker 1: that's that's no problem. What happened.
24:01
Speaker 8: Well, this is a real shame in the Democratic Party,
24:04
Speaker 8: by the way, that you know, uh, what's his name again, Graham?
24:08
Speaker 8: What's the platin Yeah, I mean, first of all, you know,
24:13
Speaker 8: he emerges on the scene and he's the dowling of
24:15
Speaker 8: the Democrats. Right, he's the next big thing in the
24:17
Speaker 8: Democratic Party, and he's a working man's guy and out
24:21
Speaker 8: of the h don't don't you know, never mind the
24:23
Speaker 8: fact that he has a Nazi tattoo, and never mind
24:25
Speaker 8: that he has all these allegations of uh, you know,
24:28
Speaker 8: abusing women, et cetera, et cetera. But you know, all
24:30
Speaker 8: the Democrats in the Senate, Oh, he's wonderful. Bernie Sander
24:34
Speaker 8: says he's my guy, and so does Elizabeth Warren. But
24:36
Speaker 8: then he starts falling in the polls, right, and all
24:40
Speaker 8: of a sudden, the bloom is off the rose.
24:42
Speaker 3: So what do they do.
24:43
Speaker 8: They throw him under the bus, and they say, we
24:44
Speaker 8: got to get rid of this guy. And so now
24:47
Speaker 8: he's out, and now the Democratic establishment will pick their
24:51
Speaker 8: own candidate. Gee, that sounds a lot like what they
24:53
Speaker 8: did to Joe Biden.
24:54
Speaker 1: Right, Hey, let me just I notice the way these
24:59
Speaker 1: socialists socialists, the way that socialism works is everybody gets
25:04
Speaker 1: nothing and the people running it get everything. You know,
25:07
Speaker 1: city council take it rich. Yeah, city councils voting themselves
25:10
Speaker 1: are raised even this crazy governor wants everybody to turn
25:13
Speaker 1: their thermostat up. People are reporting, oh my god, reporters
25:16
Speaker 1: have gone into city Hall and checked the temperature that
25:19
Speaker 1: bring thermometers. They have it at sixty eight. Why do
25:22
Speaker 1: we have to be seventy eight?
25:24
Speaker 8: Yeah, this is a big story. We have this in
25:26
Speaker 8: our hotline today. By the way, people can get that
25:28
Speaker 8: just go to on least pust thirty dot com and get.
25:31
Speaker 1: It for free.
25:31
Speaker 8: But this story about Hockel, what she wants to do
25:35
Speaker 8: is regulate, have the government regulate the temperature house. So
25:39
Speaker 8: do you remember I'm Mark, I think you and I
25:41
Speaker 8: I'm a little maybe a little bit older than you.
25:42
Speaker 8: Remember Jimmy Carter and his fireside chats. It's a car
25:45
Speaker 8: to get sweater or the existent. You know, everybody's got
25:48
Speaker 8: to turn down their thermostat, you know, turn up you know,
25:52
Speaker 8: cold winter months because we're running out of energy. That
25:55
Speaker 8: seems to be the canty Hochel you know idea that
25:58
Speaker 8: she we're gonna And now they've got this kind of
26:01
Speaker 8: Orwellian idea that if you pay that, if you pay
26:05
Speaker 8: the utility companies, they will pay you three hundred dollars
26:10
Speaker 8: a year if you'll let them regulate the temperature of
26:12
Speaker 8: your house.
26:13
Speaker 3: Yes.
26:13
Speaker 1: So, now what you say is they're not suggesting seventy
26:15
Speaker 1: eight they would install a thermostat that they can control
26:18
Speaker 1: from somewhere.
26:19
Speaker 8: Yes, exactly what I mean, that's like George Orgewell or
26:22
Speaker 8: well stuff. I mean, so what Hoka wants us to say,
26:26
Speaker 8: you should really shouldn't have your temperature And the Europeans
26:29
Speaker 8: have been doing this too, you know, not set below
26:32
Speaker 8: seventy eight degrees in the summer and not above sixty
26:35
Speaker 8: eight degrees.
26:35
Speaker 3: In the winter.
26:37
Speaker 8: What you have to wear a parker in your house
26:42
Speaker 8: in the winter, and you're gonna have to or paintstop
26:45
Speaker 8: in your house in the summer. I mean, this is craziness,
26:48
Speaker 8: it really is. And so the idea that the government
26:52
Speaker 8: can go can regulate the temperature house, I mean, are
26:55
Speaker 8: there no individual rights and there are no limits on
26:57
Speaker 8: the power of government.
26:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, if they do that, if they got away with that,
27:01
Speaker 1: they would next do it to your television, set your
27:04
Speaker 1: oven every time. We so, so this November, everybody start here.
27:10
Speaker 1: Everybody throw Kathy Hokle out and vote in Bruce Blakeman
27:13
Speaker 1: in November. Let's start there and Hopefully it starts a
27:17
Speaker 1: movement to get rid of these These socialists will all
27:21
Speaker 1: just wear themselves out, and you know they'll be gone
27:25
Speaker 1: in two years, won't they.
27:28
Speaker 8: I hope.
27:28
Speaker 3: So.
27:28
Speaker 8: I mean, I think one of the tragedies of our
27:30
Speaker 8: country right now, frankly, Mark, is that we've got our
27:34
Speaker 8: great cities like New York, in Chicago and Los Angeles
27:37
Speaker 8: and now including Seattle, that are run by basically left
27:44
Speaker 8: wing socialists, and they're destroying our great cities. I mean,
27:47
Speaker 8: it's a very sad thing to see. And so you
27:51
Speaker 8: know what, the survival of our cities really is dependent
27:54
Speaker 8: on getting rid of these people. I mean, look at
27:57
Speaker 8: you know, I love this headline the other day and
28:00
Speaker 8: the New York Times. It's that, you know, gee, all
28:02
Speaker 8: the landlords are really surprised and the government officials that
28:05
Speaker 8: people aren't paying their rent. Well, gee, maybe if you
28:07
Speaker 8: tell people you don't have to pay your rent and
28:09
Speaker 8: you'll never be evicted, people won't pay their rent. Yeah,
28:12
Speaker 8: that's what's happening.
28:14
Speaker 1: So hey, you probably saw this building collapse we have here.
28:18
Speaker 1: They're so busy worrying about my thermostat why aren't they
28:21
Speaker 1: doing a bad job of approving if you look at
28:23
Speaker 1: what they did, adding twenty stories on top of it,
28:27
Speaker 1: who approve that? Why don't they work on that approval
28:31
Speaker 1: process a little more.
28:33
Speaker 8: Well, that's a great point. And you know, the government
28:37
Speaker 8: is so involved in things like climate change policy and
28:42
Speaker 8: so on, they're neglecting the things that really matter, which
28:45
Speaker 8: is safety. And you know, you guys have very strict
28:47
Speaker 8: climate change policies in New York. You wouldn't be running
28:50
Speaker 8: out of energy today. By the way, in New York,
28:53
Speaker 8: you wouldn't have to be regulating people's thermostats. New York
28:56
Speaker 8: has a lot of energy. You know, you've got you're
28:59
Speaker 8: right there in the shale formation. And you've seen the
29:02
Speaker 8: charts in our book that show that. You know that
29:05
Speaker 8: Pennsylvania is taking all your energy. You know that they're
29:09
Speaker 8: drilling though known in New York and taking out your
29:11
Speaker 8: energy because you won't drill for it. You wouldn't have
29:13
Speaker 8: to be paying so high utility bills in New York
29:16
Speaker 8: if you just went through your by the way, est him,
29:19
Speaker 8: it's three billion dollars a year you've lost because of
29:21
Speaker 8: these crazy climate change which, by the way, are doing
29:24
Speaker 8: nothing to change the temperature of the planet.
29:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're sitting on top of natural guests. Also, that
29:29
Speaker 1: crazy Andrew Cuomo closed Indian point that nuclear plant was
29:33
Speaker 1: twenty five percent of our energy. What was the argument
29:35
Speaker 1: against nuclear? It's as clean as can be, isn't it?
29:38
Speaker 8: It sure is. And by the way, I don't think
29:40
Speaker 8: I've seen the latest polls, but for the first time
29:42
Speaker 8: in fifty years, of majority of Americans now support climate change.
29:46
Speaker 8: I mean nuclear power. So that's pretty amazing thing. The
29:51
Speaker 8: nuclear power is clean, it's sufficient, it's cheap, it's abundant.
29:54
Speaker 8: You don't run out of it. I don't think we're
29:56
Speaker 8: running out of atoms.
29:57
Speaker 1: To you, if you were to drill we're sitting on
30:03
Speaker 1: top of all this natural gas. If you were to
30:05
Speaker 1: drill that, not only would you fix our energy problem.
30:08
Speaker 1: But doesn't that doesn't that create a ton of jobs
30:11
Speaker 1: all over the state.
30:13
Speaker 3: Oh?
30:13
Speaker 8: Sure it does. And look at by the way, if
30:15
Speaker 8: you think I'm exaggerating folks, look what happened in Germany
30:17
Speaker 8: because Germany went all in on wind power and solar
30:19
Speaker 8: power about fifteen years ago, and they've damn near deindustrialized
30:23
Speaker 8: the whole state, I mean the whole country. You know,
30:26
Speaker 8: they couldn't make dmw's and stuff. Because the energy was
30:28
Speaker 8: so expensive. They're finally coming around to saying, wait a minute,
30:31
Speaker 8: this isn't really working, so let's not follow the losers.
30:34
Speaker 8: And that's what New York does too often. There's nothing
30:37
Speaker 8: that could New York can make a big comeback. Just
30:40
Speaker 8: get somebody in there will cut taxes, cut regulation, get
30:43
Speaker 8: rid of these crazy green energy policies, and we will
30:46
Speaker 8: see a New York get rich again.
30:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, Bruce Blakeman in November, like our Ron DeSantis, he
30:52
Speaker 1: could turn this whole thing around.
30:53
Speaker 8: I mean, by the way, I love the last thing
30:54
Speaker 8: I know run in town. I saw a speech by
30:56
Speaker 8: Lee Zelden. He spoke at our conference last week on
31:00
Speaker 8: you know, what was called Prosperity to fifty, and he
31:04
Speaker 8: was talked about all the things they're doing to deregulate
31:06
Speaker 8: the economy. And because he said ahead an EPA, that
31:09
Speaker 8: guy is so damn improcess. He's so smart. And I'm
31:12
Speaker 8: like the voters of New York voted for Kathy Hochel
31:15
Speaker 8: for this guy. I mean, you know, if Lee Zelden
31:18
Speaker 8: were governor today, boy in New York would be in
31:21
Speaker 8: great shape.
31:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, thanks for rubbing it in don't make that mistake.
31:26

Speaker 1: seat belt, takes off his helmet, opens the plane door,
33:03
Speaker 1: and jumps out to his death. He kills himself. I
33:07
Speaker 1: don't know, I beg I guess he wanted to commit suicide,
33:10
Speaker 1: but what a what a way to do it. So
33:13
Speaker 1: the kid, who's had a lot of training as a pilot,
33:17
Speaker 1: manages to call the control tower tell him what happened,
33:20
Speaker 1: manages to land the plane himself. They were pretty impressed
33:24
Speaker 1: with his staying cool under all of that. But what

34:01
Speaker 1: shower or thunderstorm tomorrow. But then the weekend looks great.
34:04
