- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for our American mama's. Dear mama's,
- 0:02Speaker 1: how was your trip to New York City? Well, let's
- 0:04Speaker 1: ask our American mama. Mama Ma and joining us now
- 0:19Speaker 1: on the phone, our American mama, Kimberly Burlison. Terry Nedeville
- 0:22Speaker 1: is out and about. Boy, y'all have been busy this week,
- 0:27Speaker 1: you know birthdays. I guess Terry's out with some wedding
- 0:32Speaker 1: stuff coming up for the family, and you were in
- 0:36Speaker 1: New York. How was your trip to New York City?
- 0:40Speaker 2: Oh, let me just tell y'all. I love New York
- 0:44Speaker 2: and New Yorkers. Okay, trip was eye opening for me.
- 0:49Speaker 2: I haven't been to New York. It's probably I don't know,
- 0:52Speaker 2: ten fifteen years since I've been there. So it was
- 0:55Speaker 2: my birthday weekend, so my daughters and I decided to
- 0:58Speaker 2: go to New York. Youngest daughter, I told y'all, her
- 1:02Speaker 2: boyfriend plays and the miners for the New York Yankees.
- 1:04Speaker 2: So the goal was to just watch a lot of
- 1:07Speaker 2: baseball and explore all those little towns that are near
- 1:11Speaker 2: and around Hudson Valley because I've never been to that
- 1:13Speaker 2: part of New York. So we're just exploring. So during
- 1:17Speaker 2: the Oh my gosh, it's so beautiful. So going into
- 1:21Speaker 2: all these little towns, one thing I noticed was the
- 1:24Speaker 2: number of people wearing Trump shirts. And I couldn't believe it.
- 1:28Speaker 2: I mean, I saw more Trump shirts than I've seen
- 1:31Speaker 2: here in Texas. Wow. But everybody was wearing them in
- 1:34Speaker 2: these small towns. So I thought this must be the
- 1:37Speaker 2: girls and I were like, this must be a small
- 1:39Speaker 2: town thing. Maybe it's like, you know, in the city
- 1:41Speaker 2: they hate on the on the outskirts, they love them.
- 1:44Speaker 2: So that's what we're thinking until we went to the city.
- 1:49Speaker 2: We go into the city and Louis, I don't know
- 1:51Speaker 2: if you notice the same thing, but there was someone
- 1:54Speaker 2: selling Trump shirts. On every single street. There are people
- 2:00Speaker 2: boldly wearing their Trump shirts, and all of them had
- 2:03Speaker 2: like this era, you know, like just say something to me, burre,
- 2:06Speaker 2: you know, they seemed like super proud of it. And
- 2:10Speaker 2: in New York City, I was kind of giddy. In
- 2:14Speaker 2: the city. Now, it was shocking.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Yeah, that's shocking because I think Joe Biden won New
- 2:20Speaker 1: York City by like ninety five percent of the vote
- 2:23Speaker 1: four years.
- 2:24Speaker 2: Ago, right, and yeah, right, well right.
- 2:26Speaker 1: He won New Orleans by about that much. Most large cities,
- 2:30Speaker 1: Joe Biden did win the large city by significant amounts,
- 2:33Speaker 1: especially in urban areas, New York City being one of
- 2:37Speaker 1: them that he won by large amount. But you're saying that,
- 2:40Speaker 1: did you see anybody selling Kamona T shirts?
- 2:44Speaker 2: Well, I did see them selling. I saw a few places,
- 2:47Speaker 2: but I didn't see one person wearing one. I saw
- 2:50Speaker 2: people wearing Trump shirts all over the place. One of
- 2:53Speaker 2: the days that I was there, I went to the
- 2:55Speaker 2: Franklin D. Roosevelt Home. And one of the things my
- 2:58Speaker 2: girls hate the most about me is I befriend everybody
- 3:01Speaker 2: that i'm We end up talking and kind of close
- 3:03Speaker 2: friends with strangers. Well, there's a couple that was there.
- 3:07Speaker 2: They were on a tour with me and the man
- 3:10Speaker 2: he's a driver in the city and the wife has
- 3:12Speaker 2: like a childcare service in her home. So we're talking
- 3:16Speaker 2: and they asked me where I was from, and I
- 3:18Speaker 2: said I was from Texas, and so the guy says,
- 3:20Speaker 2: I'll bet you're a Patriot. So of course we became
- 3:23Speaker 2: instant best friends. So I told him, I said, I
- 3:26Speaker 2: noticed that everybody is wearing Trump shirts. And he said,
- 3:29Speaker 2: let me tell you something. Don't let the media, fool
- 3:32Speaker 2: of you, hard working New Yorkers one hundred percent support Trump.
- 3:37Speaker 2: It's those rich white liberal folks in Manhattan with their
- 3:40Speaker 2: pink caed ivy league entitled kids that hate them. So
- 3:43Speaker 2: what you're seeing on TV is a lie. We are
- 3:48Speaker 2: all for Trump. And I was like, I was like,
- 3:51Speaker 2: oh my god, I just did not expect it. I said,
- 3:53Speaker 2: I did see. You know, during all the court proceedings,
- 3:57Speaker 2: there's he got a lot of support and you know,
- 3:59Speaker 2: around the court and he said, that's everywhere. He said,
- 4:04Speaker 2: the biggest attraction in New York City right now is
- 4:07Speaker 2: Trump Tower. He said, I take tours to Trump Tower
- 4:10Speaker 2: every day all day. People you can't go in. He's like,
- 4:14Speaker 2: you know, certain rules right now because of everything, but
- 4:16Speaker 2: people want to take pictures. They just want to feel
- 4:18Speaker 2: close to him. And he said that's where I'm taking
- 4:20Speaker 2: people all the time. And I was I thought, oh.
- 4:24Speaker 2: And then his wife was saying, you know that we
- 4:26Speaker 2: feel it. You know, these people they don't feel it.
- 4:28Speaker 2: We hardworking people, we feel the negativity of what this
- 4:33Speaker 2: hair is, this Biden administration has done. We feel it.
- 4:37Speaker 2: With Trump, he fulfilled every promise, all those promises he made.
- 4:42Speaker 2: He fulfilled it. We already saw him. He doesn't have
- 4:45Speaker 2: to lie to us. We already saw what he was
- 4:46Speaker 2: able to do. And it was for me. It was
- 4:50Speaker 2: so I was so happy because I had this whole
- 4:53Speaker 2: other idea of how New Yorkers felt about him. Yeah,
- 4:57Speaker 2: he did. The man went off on the governor. So
- 5:00Speaker 2: I guess everyone hates her. He is not popular.
- 5:04Speaker 1: I could see why. I could see why an Uber
- 5:06Speaker 1: driver would really not be happy with Kathy Hockel. Since
- 5:08Speaker 1: he's trying to put congestion pricing into New York City.
- 5:12Speaker 1: He'd have to pay fifteen dollars every time he drove
- 5:16Speaker 1: into New York City. That would put a massive crimp
- 5:19Speaker 1: on his business. We got about to fifteen seconds left.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Oh well, but all I want to tell you is that,
- 5:26Speaker 2: you know, with New Yorkers, one thing I noticed about
- 5:29Speaker 2: them is you can't lie to a New Yorker. These
- 5:31Speaker 2: are smart people, and they're unafraid to stand up to
- 5:34Speaker 2: bullies and anyone that tells them that what they're seeing
- 5:36Speaker 2: with their own eyes is not what's happening. A New
- 5:39Speaker 2: Yorker will not have any problem telling that person what
- 5:42Speaker 2: needs to be said. And for me, that's exciting. That's
- 5:45Speaker 2: something we can all be like, very interesting.
