Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Yeah, it is the Mark Simon Show on sevent ten.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Wolag Hey, it's Friday. That's a great news. A lot
- 0:12Speaker 2: coming up today. We'll get to President Trump's trip to China.
- 0:16Speaker 2: He's on his way back. He's on the plane heading back.
- 0:19Speaker 2: It's a long, long trip, like get back late tonight
- 0:22Speaker 2: at the White House. And I think he spends the
- 0:26Speaker 2: I'm looking at the schedule. It looks like he spends
- 0:28Speaker 2: the whole weekend in DC. Mar a Lago is closed.
- 0:31Speaker 2: It closes on Mother's Day for the whole summer, doesn't
- 0:33Speaker 2: reopen n till Halloween. So he's got his own golf club,
- 0:38Speaker 2: the golf club right outside of Washington, out in the
- 0:41Speaker 2: suburbs in Virginia. So he'll probably be there tomorrow playing golf.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Jet lag. Now he doesn't get that even whatever it is,
- 0:48Speaker 2: eighteen hour flight, no jet lag. So the trip very successful,
- 0:54Speaker 2: very successful. Now, President she agreed to a lot of stuff.
- 0:58Speaker 2: He agreed not to sell weapons to Iran. He agreed
- 1:02Speaker 2: to do everything he can to help settle the Iran conflict.
- 1:05Speaker 2: He agreed to this. He agreed to that. So it's
- 1:07Speaker 2: a great negotiation. Now the only catch is you got
- 1:10Speaker 2: to put a big asterisk on that. China has never
- 1:14Speaker 2: ever ever lived up to anything they've ever agreed to.
- 1:17Speaker 2: So bear that in mind. But your body language experts
- 1:21Speaker 2: studying when President Trump is with President She's studying it
- 1:25Speaker 2: and saying that there's an affection. There's an an affection
- 1:29Speaker 2: for each other. They like each other. This is unlike
- 1:31Speaker 2: previous presidents. You know, Biden used to make that speech. Oh,
- 1:34Speaker 2: I've spent more time with President she than anybody. She
- 1:38Speaker 2: couldn't stand. Biden thought he was an imbecile. Obama he
- 1:42Speaker 2: didn't like, he didn't respect. Remember when Obama landed in
- 1:46Speaker 2: China air Force one, they wouldn't bring out a stairs
- 1:49Speaker 2: for him. They wouldn't bring out the big stairs. So
- 1:51Speaker 2: and there was no ceremony on the runway, there was nothing.
- 1:54Speaker 2: They sent some junior guy to shake his hand, but
- 1:57Speaker 2: no stairs to come down. He had to use the
- 2:00Speaker 2: you know that little baby steps in the back of
- 2:03Speaker 2: Air Force want to get out. It was quite embarrassing.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Trump got the royal welcome red carpet, literally a red carpet,
- 2:09Speaker 2: military bands, top top officials vit she never does this himself.
- 2:14Speaker 2: But he sent the vice president in China to greet
- 2:17Speaker 2: him along with all the major officials, military band, children's choir,
- 2:21Speaker 2: and the whole thing. So it was a great honor.
- 2:24Speaker 2: They're obviously getting along better than any Chinese and American
- 2:29Speaker 2: president ever have. She has agreed that he will visit
- 2:33Speaker 2: President Trump at the White House September twenty fourth for
- 2:38Speaker 2: another visit. At one point President Trump was walking through,
- 2:41Speaker 2: she took him on a tour of certain things. One
- 2:44Speaker 2: was of China's most beautiful gardens, and in the garden
- 2:48Speaker 2: Trump saw the most beautiful roses he's ever seen. And
- 2:52Speaker 2: he said, you know, we have a rose garden in
- 2:54Speaker 2: the White House, but nothing like these roses. And then
- 2:57Speaker 2: he said, could you send me some of these roses?
- 3:00Speaker 2: So she agreed he will send the roses. They'll be
- 3:02Speaker 2: planted in the rose garden here. They had another summit yesterday.
- 3:06Speaker 2: They had tea afternoon tea with the full full menu.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Now this was to honor Trump. They went all out
- 3:14Speaker 2: on the menu. But I don't think Trump would eat
- 3:17Speaker 2: any of this stuff. I'm looking at the menu. Minced
- 3:19Speaker 2: codfish in seafood soup. That's not something Trump would like.
- 3:26Speaker 2: I mean, the only thing to eat seafood wise is
- 3:30Speaker 2: is the what do they call that fish sandwich at McDonald's,
- 3:33Speaker 2: the mcfish filet of fish. That's the only seafoodump eats.
- 3:38Speaker 2: What else? Stir fried lobster tails, panseered beef filet, stuffed
- 3:42Speaker 2: with morel mushrooms. This is not a Trump menu. Kung
- 3:46Speaker 2: pow chicken and scallops. See, the problem is when you're
- 3:50Speaker 2: on these big diplomatic emissions, you gotta eat everything. You're
- 3:53Speaker 2: going to pretend you're enjoying this. You remember when George H. W.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Bush passed out at the State dinner because I think
- 4:01Speaker 2: it was just eating something he couldn't stand. But again, here,
- 4:04Speaker 2: look at this is not Trump's stuff. Bamboo shoots, mushrooms
- 4:06Speaker 2: and beans. Now, steam pork and shrimp dumplings. Now not here. Ah,
- 4:11Speaker 2: here's something you could eat, chocolate brownies, ice cream. There
- 4:15Speaker 2: you go. All right, he filled up on that. But
- 4:17Speaker 2: otherwise it went very well. It could not have gone
- 4:19Speaker 2: any better. So what do you do if you have
- 4:23Speaker 2: the New York Times? Now, if you're the New York Times,
- 4:25Speaker 2: your job in life is not to report what happened,
- 4:28Speaker 2: not to report the news. Your job is to make
- 4:31Speaker 2: everything Trump does look bad. Everything is wrong, Everything is
- 4:35Speaker 2: a mistake. Everything he touches, he's screwing up. So you
- 4:38Speaker 2: got to do that with everything. Now, this went very well.
- 4:41Speaker 2: It went better than it's ever gone with any other president.
- 4:44Speaker 2: It went so well. What do you do if you
- 4:46Speaker 2: have the New York Times and you saw the pictures
- 4:48Speaker 2: with all the business leaders, all the CEOs, and Trump
- 4:51Speaker 2: had all these cabinet he had Bessin and Hegzith and
- 4:55Speaker 2: and Marco Ruby had all these. So what do you
- 4:58Speaker 2: do for your k Times? Whether there was a big
- 4:59Speaker 2: headline and yesterday in the New York Times where they
- 5:02Speaker 2: put up the pictures, and the New York Times headline
- 5:05Speaker 2: was where are the women the summit? Where are the women?
- 5:10Speaker 2: There weren't enough women there for the New York Times.
- 5:16Speaker 2: The business leaders, Hey, he just took the CEOs of
- 5:19Speaker 2: our biggest, most important companies. They happen to be men.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Don't blame Trump. There was one woman, the CEO of
- 5:25Speaker 2: City Bank, a woman. I think that was it. It's
- 5:32Speaker 2: a silly thing that accused Trump of because nobody, no
- 5:35Speaker 2: president has ever appointed more women to more high positions
- 5:39Speaker 2: in an administration than Trump. He holds the record for them.
- 5:43Speaker 2: And in his own business, the Trump organization more women
- 5:46Speaker 2: executives than any other company, So it's a silly accusation
- 5:50Speaker 2: against him. Now he's so happy to be back as
- 5:53Speaker 2: he can have a cheeseburger and French fries every meal.
- 5:56Speaker 2: He's so happy to be back because they're going to
- 5:58Speaker 2: give him a cell phone back and his You know,
- 6:00Speaker 2: you can't take a cell phone, you can't take your computer,
- 6:03Speaker 2: You can't take any devices into China because their surveillance
- 6:08Speaker 2: is unbelievable. Not only were they suck everything out of
- 6:11Speaker 2: your phone, but they'll embed stuff in your phone that
- 6:13Speaker 2: you can never get out. So everybody, everybody in a plane,
- 6:17Speaker 2: Sean Hannity, everybody told you can't bring any devices. You
- 6:21Speaker 2: have to get a burner phone to use just when
- 6:24Speaker 2: you're there, and then when you leave you throw it away,
- 6:27Speaker 2: burner computer, and you even have to get a burner email.
- 6:30Speaker 2: You can't use your email. So they everybody, everybody on
- 6:34Speaker 2: the trip had to set up a burner email just
- 6:36Speaker 2: to use for these couple of days and then throw
- 6:38Speaker 2: it out. So it was killing Trump because you couldn't
- 6:42Speaker 2: truth social he couldn't tweet during the you couldn't do it. Now,
- 6:46Speaker 2: there were a couple of a minor truth socials during
- 6:49Speaker 2: the trip, but those were done from Washington. You know,
- 6:52Speaker 2: they would tell them what they wanted and they would
- 6:53Speaker 2: post it from Washington. But he'll get his phone back.
- 6:57Speaker 2: Expect a truth social barrage today. But it went very,
- 7:03Speaker 2: very very well. Now, the best interview on all of
- 7:07Speaker 2: this would be Sean Hannity last night did a one
- 7:10Speaker 2: hour interview with President Trump, exclusive one hour interview where
- 7:15Speaker 2: he asked him everything about the summit. By the way,
- 7:18Speaker 2: we'll play it today on w o R, you'll hear it.
- 7:21Speaker 2: I'll be filling in for Sean Hannity today because he'll
- 7:23Speaker 2: be on the plane. But I think in the first
- 7:25Speaker 2: hour three to four, we'll play the whole interview, so
- 7:28Speaker 2: you'll get to hear it, which is very important, especially
- 7:31Speaker 2: for me because I got to do his show for
- 7:33Speaker 2: three hours, So they'll play that for the whole first hour,
- 7:36Speaker 2: which means I don't have to talk. I think it
- 7:38Speaker 2: just sits there, so it's perfect. Hopefully he'll do more
- 7:41Speaker 2: interviews on the plane to fill more time. But it
- 7:44Speaker 2: was a great interview. He talked about she you know,
- 7:46Speaker 2: Trump's a very tall guy, but if you look at
- 7:48Speaker 2: the pictures they're pretty much the same height.
- 7:50Speaker 1: But I say about him that if you went to
- 7:53Speaker 1: Hollywood and you looked for a leader of China to
- 7:57Speaker 1: play a role in a movie, central casting, central casting,
- 8:00Speaker 1: you wouldn't. You couldn't find a guy like him. Even
- 8:04Speaker 1: his physical features. You know, it was tall, very tall,
- 8:08Speaker 1: and especially for this country because they tend to be
- 8:12Speaker 1: a little bit shorter.
- 8:14Speaker 2: Yeah, you see those Chinese leaders, She is no exception.
- 8:16Speaker 2: They all look evil. They all look like James Bond films.
- 8:24Speaker 2: They all look like they're just trying to destroy the
- 8:26Speaker 2: whole world. And I don't know why anybody would want
- 8:30Speaker 2: this job. And you imagine having the first sum it
- 8:32Speaker 2: was like two and a half hours, the next one
- 8:33Speaker 2: was like two You imagine if they talk to she
- 8:36Speaker 2: for two hours? Does that sound like fun? I don't
- 8:38Speaker 2: think so. So the some press were over there. Now
- 8:42Speaker 2: there was a little controversy because the Chinese officials police
- 8:47Speaker 2: kept blocking the press. They wouldn't let him near they
- 8:50Speaker 2: wouldn't let him near Trump. Also, Chinese officials kept them
- 8:54Speaker 2: penned up in certain areas where they weren't allowed any water.
- 8:57Speaker 2: In fact, they confiscated their water bottles and no bathroom no,
- 9:03Speaker 2: they weren't allowed any and it was like eighty five
- 9:05Speaker 2: out in the sun. It's might use that system here
- 9:10Speaker 2: in this country and push the press around, treat them
- 9:12Speaker 2: like cattle. But when the reporters did get to Trump,
- 9:15Speaker 2: they would ask the dumbest, most annoying, gotcha stupid questions.
- 9:20Speaker 1: I was in an interview with a very bad, stupid reporter.
- 9:23Speaker 1: She works for CBS. You saw the sixty minutes stupid person.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Just an average person. You could take anybody off the
- 9:29Speaker 1: street and it'd be as good as she is, you know,
- 9:32Speaker 1: just very average.
- 9:33Speaker 2: Yeah. So Democrats everywhere, Oh excuse me, Democrats everywhere trashing
- 9:39Speaker 2: the trip. That's the new name. Democrats. Don't say democrats,
- 9:42Speaker 2: say democrats. President Trump came up with that earlier, and
- 9:46Speaker 2: he also explained where it came from. He was looking
- 9:49Speaker 2: at Hakeem Jeffries, who's a very low IQ guy, and
- 9:52Speaker 2: that's where he got the name democrats. And he explained
- 9:54Speaker 2: it to Sean.
- 9:55Speaker 1: You know, the Democrats are against farmers, Jesse, How could they?
- 9:59Speaker 1: Because add that to the men and women's sports? Are
- 10:03Speaker 1: the Democrats are against farmers? Can you believe it? So? Not? Anyway,
- 10:08Speaker 1: they're defective. I came up with a new name. I
- 10:11Speaker 1: don't know if I should. I know which one of
- 10:14Speaker 1: those Democrats? I said, dumb, dumb. I was talking about
- 10:19Speaker 1: a guy how came Jefferies is a very low IQ individual.
- 10:22Speaker 1: When I talked about him, he's a dumb guy. He's
- 10:24Speaker 1: a Democrat, And I said, oh, what a great name.
- 10:27Speaker 2: Yeah, So just use that from now on. Just say
- 10:30Speaker 2: it Democrats, democrats, democrats, not democrats democrats. Make sure you
- 10:35Speaker 2: use that all the time. Hey, there's a story I
- 10:39Speaker 2: think we all need to be concerned about Long Island
- 10:42Speaker 2: the Lie. Picture Exit forty nine, Lie Exit forty nine.
- 10:49Speaker 2: That would be Route one ten. That's the road that
- 10:51Speaker 2: goes to Melville, goes to Huntington. That's like where the
- 10:54Speaker 2: Walt Whitman Mall is. That's where if you get right
- 10:56Speaker 2: off there, there's the Melville Marriott, There's Blackstones, a great steakhouse.
- 11:01Speaker 2: What's the one on the other side Halston's Anthony Scott
- 11:04Speaker 2: owns all these great wrestling But picture this l IE
- 11:08Speaker 2: one ten. That's one of the busiest, busiest, busiest exits
- 11:12Speaker 2: on the LIE. Yesterday, a big sinkhole opens up and
- 11:18Speaker 2: a car goes into this sinkhole l I E. This
- 11:21Speaker 2: is not like in some rural area in Florida. This
- 11:24Speaker 2: is not somewhere in Georgia where there's a sinkhole. This
- 11:27Speaker 2: is right on the lie like in the middle lane.
- 11:30Speaker 2: Sinkhole opens up, car goes into it. Now, luckily the
- 11:34Speaker 2: driver wasn't injured. The car was injured, but the driver
- 11:37Speaker 2: wasn't injured. Now, this is scary. What would cause us
- 11:40Speaker 2: sinkhole on the l lie Well, usually sinkholes the ones
- 11:46Speaker 2: you see, you know somewhere in Florida, somewhere in Alabama,
- 11:50Speaker 2: somewhere out there. It's groundwater. You know, underground there's water
- 11:55Speaker 2: and at this point where the groundwater erodes the dirt,
- 12:00Speaker 2: the bedrocket wears it away, so it becomes a hole
- 12:03Speaker 2: under the ground and then the ground sinks into it.
- 12:07Speaker 2: The ground water, natural groundwater creates the cavity and then
- 12:12Speaker 2: everything sinks into it. Those are the type of sinkholes.
- 12:16Speaker 2: Apparently experts think this is different here. This is what
- 12:20Speaker 2: you got to worry about, the sinkhole on the lie.
- 12:23Speaker 2: You know, there's a lot of infrastructure under these roads.
- 12:26Speaker 2: They got storm drains, they got utility lines, they got
- 12:30Speaker 2: all sorts of pipes that run under there. They got
- 12:33Speaker 2: water pipes that run under there. So a lot of
- 12:36Speaker 2: experts on this stuff believed what happened was some of
- 12:40Speaker 2: the pipes under there. You know, they can be very
- 12:42Speaker 2: old and state put them in lie is a state project,
- 12:45Speaker 2: New York State. This is Kathy Hokals Road. But they
- 12:49Speaker 2: believe some of those pipes under there over the years eroded.
- 12:53Speaker 2: There was erosion rust, especially at the joints, so it
- 12:57Speaker 2: eroded and corroded, and there was joint separation and water
- 13:01Speaker 2: started coming out, pouring out for a long time. And
- 13:04Speaker 2: you get enough water under there, same effect that erodes
- 13:08Speaker 2: the bedrocket erodes, the dirt, creates a cavity and the
- 13:11Speaker 2: road sinks into it. So this is something to worry
- 13:16Speaker 2: about because everywhere every highway all over in New York
- 13:20Speaker 2: they got these same pipes, So this could start to
- 13:22Speaker 2: happen anywhere. I don't mean to scare you, but even
- 13:26Speaker 2: a small it says, even a small pipe joint defect
- 13:29Speaker 2: can cause a lot of erosion underground with the water
- 13:32Speaker 2: spilling out. So hopefully this was a freak thing and
- 13:38Speaker 2: this is one sinkhole, but if you start to see
- 13:41Speaker 2: more of these that's what it is, the aging infrastructure
- 13:44Speaker 2: under the lie. Now, if you had to fix this,
- 13:47Speaker 2: how would you do that. We're you going to tear
- 13:49Speaker 2: up every highway everywhere and look at the pipes. This
- 13:52Speaker 2: is a big, big problem, something to worry about. And
- 13:55Speaker 2: you got Kathy Hokel in charge. So that's not a
- 14:00Speaker 2: that's not a good formula. And hopefully it'll be Bruce
- 14:03Speaker 2: Blakeman in charge pretty soon. This was one ten that
- 14:07Speaker 2: would be Suffolk County, right, yeah, Suffolk County, so it's
- 14:10Speaker 2: not Blakeman's county. The New York Times is going to
- 14:14Speaker 2: be sued like crazy by Israel. They've always been the
- 14:18Speaker 2: most anti Semitic paper in the world. I mean they
- 14:21Speaker 2: even covered up the Holocaust, a one hundred year tradition
- 14:24Speaker 2: of total anti Semitism. But they went over the top
- 14:27Speaker 2: and completely lost their minds this week when they put
- 14:31Speaker 2: out these stories. I mean there was one that Israel
- 14:35Speaker 2: was training dogs to rape women. There was another that
- 14:41Speaker 2: female prisoners were being raped in Israeli prison. None of
- 14:44Speaker 2: this is true, So why would they do it?
- 14:47Speaker 1: Now?
- 14:47Speaker 2: A lot of people think the reason they did it
- 14:49Speaker 2: the report was coming out the big Study Commission that
- 14:52Speaker 2: was looking at what happened October seventh, and it came
- 14:55Speaker 2: out this week showing how horrifying hum was on that day.
- 15:01Speaker 2: We know that they were killing, mutilating, stabbing, and raping,
- 15:06Speaker 2: but it was beyond that. And then they had like
- 15:07Speaker 2: five hundred witnesses in this report apparently, I mean, you
- 15:13Speaker 2: want to say all this stuff, they were forcing family
- 15:15Speaker 2: members to have sex with each other and then raping
- 15:18Speaker 2: them in front of family members. I mean, it was
- 15:20Speaker 2: just I'm not even telling you most it's just awful.
- 15:23Speaker 2: They came out in this report. So a lot of
- 15:24Speaker 2: people think that's why the New York Times went crazy
- 15:28Speaker 2: with these fake stories. They were trying to counter that report,
- 15:31Speaker 2: knowing it would create tremendous sympathy for Israel, so they
- 15:35Speaker 2: were trying to counter that. But Israel Benjamin Not in
- 15:38Speaker 2: Yahoo announced they will sue the New York Times. They
- 15:42Speaker 2: will sue the New York Times like crazy. Some of
- 15:45Speaker 2: our top top attorneys, Alan Derschwooz and others are going
- 15:49Speaker 2: to jump in on this case. This is going to
- 15:51Speaker 2: be New York Times is the most sued newspaper ever
- 15:54Speaker 2: for all their fake news. But this is going to
- 15:56Speaker 2: be the big one. This is going to be really damaging,
- 15:59Speaker 2: so we'll see what happens. We'll take some calls in
- 16:01Speaker 2: a minute. Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten
- 16:05Speaker 2: is the number. Eight hundred three two one zero seven
- 16:10Speaker 2: ten
