  Speaker 1: I think they really are underestimating how angry everybody is,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: because there's people that I talked to that used to
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: be just hardcore Democrats, hardcore leftist progressives that are really saying,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: like in hush tones, we really need a Republican. We
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: really need like some no nonsense Rudy Giuliani person.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: I hate to say that. I hate to say it,
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: but that's what we need.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: We need someone who's going to be really tough on
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: crime and clean everything up and stop all these people
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: from having.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Tents on the street.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: There's so many people like that that are just quiet
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: about it. They don't want to talk about it openly
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: and publicly because they're afraid of being shamed.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: I grew up in Palisys. I went to Crossroads High School.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever met a Republican. No, I mean,
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: for real, like all the people I know, all my family,
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: everybody I know is a Democrat. And all the people
• 0:50

  Speaker 3: They want all the same things.

• 1:22
  Speaker 1: pretending to be compassionate, and they can hide all this
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: money that they're just siphoning off because it really is
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: just organized crime.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Well, they say to people there's nothing we can do.

• 1:39
  Speaker 3: good at just keeping this. These people have rights. First off,
• 1:44

• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Started my radio career in Fort Lauderdale back in nineteen
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: ninety eight. His house burned to the ground in the
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Palisades and they just started working on it again, and
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: about three weeks in so he's very young, green. He's
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: about to leave California and move, as he told us

• 3:04
  Speaker 2: actually motivated by Luigi Mangioni. Manngoni, of course killed the

  Speaker 2: healthcare worker, murdered him, murdered him Brian Thompson. In a
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: lot of you low lives in New York look up
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: to him like he did something great, you know, like
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: he's a martyr. This guy was inspired by Mangoni. Set

  Speaker 4: Always great to see you.
• 4:04

• 4:08
  Speaker 2: long are you here for what.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Oh you know, I love it. I mean I come back.
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: Actually, I've had to come back for three of the
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: last four weekends. So I feel like a bi coastal
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: for sure, for different events. But I really feel like
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: Los Angeles has has run its course. We moved there
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: fourteen years ago. It was a totally different place. It
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: is now not a good place.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like I said, my friend Ross is moving to Florida.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Very well, yes, oh you do, yeah, of course.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: How do you know Ross?
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: Our kids are friends. We've gone on vacation with our
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: families together.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: No way.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: So when I started my career doing sports was an
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: internet site, not radio. Had a place called sports Line USA,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Cypress Creek, Fort, Florida, Delle, Florida. He was one of
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: my bosses. He was the one who said to me, hey,
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: you know a lot about sports. Have you ever considered
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: doing radio? He said, of course not. I'm on a
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: customer service line making nine dollars an hour. He said,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: We're starting an internet radio division here with sports Line,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: and I want to give you the opportunity because you
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: speaks so well on your knowledgeable to do some radio.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: And he did it. He's really the person that started
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: my radio career twenty eight years ago.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: It's absolutely wild, no idea, that's incredible.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: He was in these studios. When was he here ross
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: guys about two weeks ago? Two weeks? Yeah, so that's great,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: you know. Okay, so he's had all these difficulties. He's moving.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: My buddy Scott Baodacto, he moved out of California also
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: moved to Florida about two years ago. People are leaving,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: So you're saying you're ready to leave.
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: Well, I think the bigger problem is a lot of
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: the billionaires are leaving in California because of the tax situation.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: But it's also just quality of life.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: So, I mean, the quality of life in Los Angeles
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: has totally changed.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: Weeks ago, I was a homeless man poured a vainty
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: ice drink on me at a Starbucks. Oh yes, from
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: the back, like through my under like literally stopping what
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: hot coffee or cold?
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: Thank god? It was a vaindy ice crossed ice coffee.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: Then it happened to the guy next to me too.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Then the guy trashed the Starbucks and the police had
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: to come and they closed the Starbucks down.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: But like that's a normal event. In fact, I was.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: I was at a it was a governor governatorial fundraiser recently,
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: and I shared that story with the candidate and another
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: person raised his hand and he said, that's nothing. I
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: just had a homeless man pissed on me last week.
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: Oh come on, And I said, Okay, you win, Yeah.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: You win. That's a win. By the way, our mutual
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: friend Susanne Miller does a great job here the Miller Podcast,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Real to Say. She says hello, she says she loves it.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: She is terrific. So let's get to Then brought up
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Spencer Pratt. And he's a guy that I'm endorsing. I
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: know very little about him. I saw him on Joe Rogan.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: I read some stuff about him. But he seems to
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: be and again I'm not a big Democrat guy, but
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: he seems to be as common sense. He's not betterman, okay,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: but about his common sense as a Democrat can be.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Something tells me you feel the same way. Debate but
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: mayor comes up tomorrow night, But you tell me what
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: you're seeing out there in Los Angeles.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: Well, first of all, I believe Spencer Pratt is a
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: registered was a registered Republican and then now you want pendant. Yeah,
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: so he's not. I wouldn't consider him a Democrats. He's
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: just right now an independent.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Well, he did call himself a Democrat a bunch of time.
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: I think he was telling himself saying he believes in
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: Democratic values.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: I think he wants those votes, okay, yeah.
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: For sure, for sure. Yeah.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: And by the way, he should get those votes because
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: Spencer Pratt is by far the best mayor old candidate
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: in the race.
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: It's hands down.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: There's no one else that's even worth considering.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Well, why do you say that?
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: Well, as you know, my home burned down, and listen,
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: I used to be a hardcore Democrat. I've raised millions
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: of dollars in the past for Democrats.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: How's the monel with you?
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: Something huge? Actually, something very big.
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: I mean, if you knew the people I supported, I
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: used to I canvassed for Elizabeth Warren years ago.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: He did.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: No, It's mortifying, honestly.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: See, I was a Democrat too, because I'm a Brooklyn Jew.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: But I like people like Ed kotch Oh. I've been
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: building Ed.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: How am I doing? How am I doing?
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: I even built Clinton? But when you started to get
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: to the Liz Warren stuff.
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: Oh horrible. Yeah, no, no, no, really bad. I mean, listen,
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: it's my I'm coming on here as confession. Okay, So
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: you know, in twenty twenty two I voted for Karen Bess,
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: which is shameful. I freaking love Rick Caruso. Now, but listen,
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: I've changed my ways. After October seventh, I sort of
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: had this wide, rude awakening of how much hate there
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: was towards Jews and Israel, and I really didn't know
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: that I was almost contributing to it by by supporting people.
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: So now I call myself a party hopper. I will,
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: I'll go to your party if you are pro Israel
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: and you are fighting anti Semitism, that.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Is you are, so you will. One one is your gee.
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: One issue voter, because it's our survival network.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: I know, but I'm not. I want people to know
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: that because you know, like you, I'm a very strong supporter.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: I get invited to a lot of stuff, not because
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: liberal Jews don't like me, but you know, I look
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: at Mamdanni for example, here in New York, the taxes
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: driving out the billionaires, anti cop so I'm about a
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: one we have.
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: To do with it.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: I mean, if we only voted on one issue in
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: New York, if all Jews were smart enough to do that,
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: then a third of them went to vote for r HNN.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: So I mean, by the way, I don't like when
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: people say, oh, the Jews voted for Montgani. They didn't
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: in New York. If you look at it, if everyone
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: voted like the Jews, Mom, Donnie wouldn't be our mayor.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: He got about twenty something percent of the vote. You
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: hear some people get crazy forty percent that don't like Jews.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: He got about twenty percent. We didn't put him in office. Now,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Curtis Sleewer really hadn't want to do with him winning
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: than the Jews did Rack but at any at any rate.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: So you you voted for Cawran Bass in twenty twenty two,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: but you've seen the light now.
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: One hundred percent here in Bass burned my home down,
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: my community, every single place my kids out of childhood memory,
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: burned down because she was, I guess on vacation in Ghana.
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: God knows she was. You know, she allowed the reservoirs
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: in our town to be bone dry so that we
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: had firefighters there there was never water on my home
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: or anyone's home around me because the fire hydrants were empty.
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: It is shame?
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Is that all her or as part of that? The
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: equally as lousy Governor Gavin Ross?
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: I can't I can't even mention his name makes me
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: so sick. But yes, you know, it's both of them.
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: It's a failure. She knew before she got on that
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: plane to Ghana that there was a crisis, and she
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: did nothing about it. And she's still gone on that
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: plane and her deputy wasn't even he had been suspended,
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: so there was literally no one driving the bus when
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: she was gone.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: So explain this to me then, Okay, because I'm always
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: shocked by this. Why is she the favorite still to win? Again?
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying Spencer can't beat her if somebody else
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: can't beat her, I think Spencer can beat her. But
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: why is she the favorite?
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: You know, she is not the favorite.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: She's not your favorite. Absolutely, Who is the favorite right
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: now to win that race?
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: There is no favorite.
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: In fact, what I'm excited about for tomorrow's debate, and
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: I encourage everyone to watch it, is that it is
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: going to give us new polling and right now we
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: have terrible old we have no idea what's going on.
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: There's a ton of undecided voters. And the scariest part
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: is we have our own Mom Donnie in Los Angeles.
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: Her name is Nithia Rahman. She's our DSA candidate. There's
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: a few DSA candidates, but she's the only one we're
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: talking about. She's the one in the debate. And she
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: is more like AOC than Mom Donnie. She's very scary,
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: she's charismatic, husband like, she is like a lot of
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: good things going for her, and she's a disaster for
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: the city. Disaster. And the problem that I'm concerned about
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: is we have a jungle primary in Los Angeles and California,
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: which everyone should understand, which is really confusing, but it
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: has nothing to do with parties. So two candidates will
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: ascend for governor after the primary on June second, and
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: for mayor.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: And this is part of the reason why the Democrats
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: wanted Eric Swalwell out of the race so badly. They
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: don't care that he may have raped the couple of women.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: They didn't care about that, but because of what you're
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: talking about, the jungle primary, they will worried that too.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Many Democrats. Was like ten or eleven Democrats up against
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: two Republicans for governor was going to hurt them. So
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: that's us. So you folks know. Part of the reason
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: why the Democrats turned on Eric Swolwell little to do
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: with rape ollegations, more to do with what are the
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: odds we can win that election.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: Okay, I might disagree on that point, but.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: This really want But I'm like, I don't care. A
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: lot of people disagree with me. They're always wrong on
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: that one.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: The rape is a pretty big deal. But anyway, but
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: the point is, but it was.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: If it was a big deal, then all the Democrats
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: that called for him to resign from the good but
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: the Toil race would have said resigned from Congress. Not
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: one did. He only resigned from Congress when Republicans, specifically
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: annapolon A Luna down in Florida and Nancy May said
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: we're going to kick you out. So if it was
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: about the rape, and here's what I'm right, the Democrats
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: would have said, don't want for governor and quit your job. Today.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: They did not do that. They said don't want for governor,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: but don't leave Congress.
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: He's not even worth talking about because he's not in
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: the race, and for me that we have a very crazy,
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: crowded governor's race.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: So Steve Hilton gonna win. That's President Trump's choice, Steve Hilton.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: So Steve Hilton has a shot, but it's going to
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: be very tight. He's right now neck and neck with
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: the Sarah and it's going to be very tight.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: You like Sarah listen.
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: I think that in terms of in terms of the Jews,
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: Besarah and Steve Hilton are both strong. In terms of everything,
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: They're strong. The most important thing for everyone in California
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: is that we box out Katie Porter, we box out Bianco.
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: I mean, he's like a proud boy's disaster. So like
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: there's a few people in there that are just scary.
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: Tom Steyer disaster, Tomsy a.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: Lot of money, a lot of money, but a disaster.
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: I mean, he has a ton of money, but that
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: doesn't mean.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: He's a real Democrat.
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: He's he's not even He's just awful in so many ways.
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: So I mean, basically, those three, if we can get
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: those three out of the race, that's what we care about.
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: I mean, and I would say that Steve Hilton, I
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: like Steve Hilton but Sarah is fine. I like him
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: is he was RFK under Biden, you know. But but
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: basically we have two candidates we need to win, and
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: if Bianc go's in that Again, the scariest part about
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: this jungle primary is two people will ascend.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: So if you have let's say Bianco versus Hilton, I
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: think Bianco might crush my qustroom Yeah.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Out, and you may end up going back to the
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Mayo's race. I like this. It's exciting back and forth.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: If two people will ascend, you may end up with
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Pratt and Bess in the Mayos race.
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: That's a great matchup. Okay, that's a fantastic matchup because
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: Pratt will crush Bass.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: He will.
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: He will, he really will. Because people want change. They
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: do not want someone who ruined our city. So many
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: people are angry. It's not just the Pacific Palicies people,
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: the Altadena people. She really completely screwed up the city
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: and the homeless situation there.
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: If you come to l I don't know when the
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: last time you were there is.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: Last time I was there was three years ago. I
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: shot a movie for Danny A about a real life
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: mob joint in Brooklyn. Called the Gemini Lounge, and I
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: went to sir because I love Lisa Vanda Pump and
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: I want them to meet Jack's I swear to God,
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: I'm such a child. And I did meet Lisa and
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Lisa Vanda Pump and her husband that night, but I
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: stayed in a hotel in Beverly Hills because I'm not
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: a big LA band. But I saw some of the
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: things that you're referring to.
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: Yes, ten times worse than when you were there, like
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: three x for the three years. It's really bad. So
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: the homeless situation is horrific. I think that Karen Bass
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: is a terrible mayor. You know, she's definitely you know,
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: in terms of the Jews. She showed up at a
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: Hanica lightning or two. I think she really likes fire,
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: but you know, she is a disaster.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: That's funny. She loves loves the.
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: Fire, but she in every other way is a disaster.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: But again, Nythia Rahmen, we do not want her in
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: that runoff. If Nythia Rahman is in the runoff, we
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: have we have a tough time. He she Unfortunately, these
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: DSA people, they don't even show up in the polls.
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: They outperform polls because they have such a strong ground game.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: That's what Mo'm Donnie did exactly. For like a month,
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Cuomo was beating him, and then all of a sudden,
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: in the last week he came on so strong that
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: the actual election primary day, he was in the lead
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Mom Donnie by four points. Does she get a lot
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: of talk out there or is she getting people like
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Mom Donnie, AOC, other socialists, maybe Bernie Sanders, I don't know,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: say nice things about it.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: Well, here's the problem.
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: She and Spencer are new right like, so they're both
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: picking up votes right now, and Karen Bass can't pick
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: up any votes because incumbents can't pick up votes, so
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: it's very hard for Karen Bass to pick up any votes.
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: But they're both picking votes.
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: So even with endorsements like Kamala Harris does endorsed Bass
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: as though we needed another reason to dislike her. So
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: it's like it's just but it's honestly, Nitthia Rahman, is
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: this like we just don't know what she's capable of,
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: which is why I'm excited for post mayor post mayoral debate. However,
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: here's one thing we need to talk about. Said Rick
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: Caruso was an extraordinary candidate. He had a ton of
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: money behind him, and he still couldn't beat Karen Bass.
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: And that's what's scary about this race. And it's such
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: lowered voter turnout. It's really an apathetic situation. So even
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: with that race, it was like forty five percent voter turnout,
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: so a million people decide the city not enough. This time,
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: we need even more. But before that it's been like
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: twenty five to thirty five.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Percent vo same thing here, no one showed up with
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: the Blagia. We won twice, we got we were looking
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: for two million for the Mamdani race. It's the same
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: exact situation. By the way, on the way out, you
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: mentioned Harris is she going to run for governor in California?
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: But she made run for president again. I don't know
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: what does he talk about her possibly running? Was that over?
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: I mean she's been. She's just such a giant disappointment.
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: I don't even want to talk about her.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: You got pulled a Lico games of her crappy jew
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: husband emov.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, well his daughter is even worse the.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: Whole She raised eight million dollars for the Pahamas I mean, basically.
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: Disaster but I mean, I just want to go back
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: to one thing said. If people have loved ones in California,
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: you got to get them to vote for Spencer Pratt
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: or Besarah or Hilton.
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: But they cannot vote for anyone else.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: All right, So for the mayor's race, we want Spencer
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Pratts at the Kentucky Derby here. We want Spencer Pratt
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: or Basara for the mayor's race, and we want.
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: Hilton Spencer Pratt.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: We only want Spencer four layers race for the governor's race.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: But Sarah and Hilton Hilton.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: Sarah.
• 18:07
