  Speaker 1: Well, Michael Goodwin, the best columnist in America. You can
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: read them every Sunday and every Wednesday in the New
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: York Post. And all of his columns are up on
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: the New York Post website. You can go there and
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: read them. And he's with us now. Michael Goodwin, How
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: you doing okay?
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Mark? Thank you?
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Hey? You wrote about the Democrats did a big autopsy
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: to figure out what went wrong in the election of
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. It is the phoniest, fakest, most ridiculous
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: non autopsy I've ever seen. What are they thinking?
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Well, the one truth is that it was written by
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: a part time, temporary worker. I mean, this is the
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: way I guess sort of party the distance itself from
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: the product. But overall, you're correct, it's a disaster and
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: it doesn't really point a way to any real solution.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: I focused on the one issue that I think it
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: did get right, and that was that the Tomla Harris
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: had sunk herself with that video showing her supporting surgery
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: for transgender criminals, No questions asked, everybody's entitlement, and Donald
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Trump turned it into an ad and it's a great
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: ad in which recounts her words, and then the voiceover
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: says she is for they them, Donald Trump is for you.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: And I think it was a brilliant summation, and to
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: its credit, the report did go into some detail talking
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: about how posters have Trump spent so much money running
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: his ad over and over in the swing states, and
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: posters agreed. It was very effect.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, except it looks like they haven't learned their lesson,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: you know, with these crazy extremist positions. They're taking even
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: more of them. They're talking about AOC for the nominee.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: It sounds like they're going even further the left. What
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: are they thinking?
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I mean that you're right to extent,
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: and they seem not to have learned anything about the
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: American voters. And I think that it does point up
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: the fact March as you say, they're moving further and
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: further left. I mean we see that in New York
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: right with Hamamdani is kind of dragging Hocal and the
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: legislature into into his socialism cab and of course Mandanni
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: on the anti Semitism, I mean that is a that's
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: a feature of the new left. So yeah, we're seeing
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: it all the country in the Blue States, the Blue
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: cities and we'll we'll see how the Democrats do in
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: the midterm. But also quickly followed by the lineup for
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: the twenty twenty eight presidential election. Right now, you know
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Avin Newsom aoc. I mean, who's going to be their candidate.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: It's not a very talent rich field.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And why are they talking about redoing our government,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: redoing democracy again?
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Electoral college, stacking the Supreme Court, making Puerto Rico and
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: DC state. Why are they talking so radically?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Well, they want what they want, and apparently the Constitution
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: stands in their way. The amendments of Free Speaks, all
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: these things block the total mindset takeover of the far left.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: This is a look you and I talk about this.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: This is a perilous time for the country. When you
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: think about just since World War Two, what the world
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: would look like if America were not the country it
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: has been strongest military, you know, a beacon for freedom
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: around the world. If you take all of that away,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: what do you have left?
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah? You think the fact that Mam Donnie won so
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: easily in New York is encouraging them, and they don't
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: realize that's just crazy New York that the rest of
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: the country's not going to vote for radicals like that.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: I think they're playing sort of a long game mark
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: wherever they can get a win, they'll take it and
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: go to the bank on it and then move up
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: the ladder. I mean the way Mam Donnie has convinced
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: the hocal that she should go along with him. I
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: mean he's calling the shots in Albany, and she's doing it,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: of course, because she believes that's how she'll win her
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: election in the fall. So that's how it happens, kind of,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: one election at a time. The takeover is is proceeding.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, when the Deblasio got elected, the radical Deblasio,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: he started catering to the billionaires, to the business crowd.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: They all got his cell number. He was taking good
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: care of them. So he pretended to be radical. But
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: meantime those guys loved them and they made sure he
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: got reelected. We don't see Mom Donnie following that same path,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: do he?
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: No. I think you're I think you're right that de
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Blasio is kind of a fake faith socialist, right. He
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: liked to sleep in, you know, he didn't know what
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: to work all that kind of stuff. Give him a
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: little money you'll get what you want. But I think Mom,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Donnie to that in that regard is a true believer
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: in the cause. And we see all the different tentacles
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: of that cause. They're all destructive to the world as
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: we know it.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Hey, the Israel Day Parade is coming up. Mom, Donnie
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: looks like he's not gonna go. That's probably a smart decision.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: I don't think he should, and I don't think anybody
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: wants him there, do they. No.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: I've just reading a speech this morning from a Rabbi
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Mark Schneier on the East Side, and he said, thank you,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: thank you for not come. We don't want you. And uh,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: you know you're you're out for Judaism, You're not. You know,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: little scenario is so ridiculous. So I think I think
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: the broke, the break with large parts of the Jewish
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: community is pretty complete. Of course, there there are those
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Jews who do support him, and probably some who are
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: sitting in the middle and in between the two groups.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I think it's this issue has not run
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: its course, that's for sure.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what's funny. He was at the Knicks game.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: As soon as the Knicks won last night, he tweeted out.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: That's not very socialist, is it too? That's that's not
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: the real hymn, is it.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: No? I look, I think to a certain extent, you know,
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: he's kind of a creature of his own swamp in
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: the sense that he he follows, you know, he follows
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: is whatever whichever way the wind is blowing on certain
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: certain popular issues. Like all politicians, he wants to be
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: in the parade. And you know, I once earned someone
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: to describe a politician's parade watching a politician watches which
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: way the parade is going in the runs to get
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: in front of Yeah, and I think gotcha. Of what
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: he's doing with popular issues like the next I mean,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: he can't be against the Knicks right now in New York.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Well, Michael Goodwin, great stuff. Your next
