Donald Trump won the 2024 Presidential Election after securing 270 electoral votes, the majority needed to win the presidency. Trump did not just win the electoral college, but he also won the popular vote with roughly 51%. In addition, the Republicans gained control of the Senate, and the U.S. House is still up for grabs. So far, the Republicans have gained 3 House seats. How did the political experts miss this Republican sweep? The day after the election, there is lots to dissect. We discussed the results in Massachusetts and New England as well as nationally.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's night with Dan Ray. I'm telling you feasy Boston
News Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
All right, I'll remember three, Kevin, I appear on the
night after the twenty twenty four election. Think about it.
We could have been sitting here tonight saying, well, it's
still too close to call, and there's still eight or
ten states out.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
We don't know what's going on in Pennsylvania. Michigan is
still uncalled. No, this ended quickly and decisively. It was
really over for all intents and purposes by nine thirty,
ten o'clock, ten thirty at the latest. If you looked
at how the numbers were coming in, and you looked
at where.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Donald Trump was compared to twenty twenty. Now, I'm going
to put on the table my inadequacies, and I'd love
to hear from you. I know all of you want
to take some victory laps, which is fine, but I
will tell you that I didn't think Donald Trump could
win a decisive election. I didn't think he could win
(01:04):
an election. I thought he could get You've heard me
say many times over the last a few years that
he could win a primary, but for him to win
a general election one to one, face off, if you
will would not be in the cards. Well, he did
(01:27):
more than that. He won one to one, beat the
vice president of the United States. It was a year
in which there were surprises galore. Two assassination attempts, both
of which and certainly the first of which he survived
by the skin of his teeth. If he had not
(01:49):
turned his head, he may not be the president elect.
I still remember that day vividly. I said that I
hope they would be a decisive win. And the reason
I wanted to see a decisive win was I'd like
to see the country to come together. I think we've
(02:10):
been estranged for far too long, and I don't know.
I'd like to hear tonight from some Harry supporters and
Democrats who are willing to say, hey, he won fair
and square, he ran a better race. Let's give him
an opportunity to succeed. They obviously are going to have
him on a short leash, and the first couple of
(02:33):
things that he does that are controversial will be back
at it. But when you think of the language that
was utilized in the campaign, when you think of the
fascist someone said, how does someone who's a fascist get
increased support from Latino voters? From black voters, increase support
(02:53):
from Jewish voters and Arab American voters. I don't think
he's a fascist, and I think that that language way
over the top. I think it was a good development
today that President Biden has invited him to come to
the White House. He should have done the same thing
(03:14):
with Joe Biden four years ago. So I thought the
suggestion that Dave Paleologus made was pretty interesting. What would
what would happen if if Donald Trump said, look, I
know what your son's been through because I was put
through the ring or two and I am going to
do the right thing, and you don't. You said you
(03:36):
weren't going to pardon your son. I'll pardon him again.
There comes a point in time where you say, okay,
you know, uh, that would not be a bad move
for Donald Trump. That would not be a bad move
for Donald Trump. Let me give you just a couple
of real quick sound bites to get us going here.
This is cut three a rob This is Donald Trump
(03:59):
talking early this morning about his election victory. The popular
vote is not complete, but certainly as of three o'clock
this morning his comments and even now at ten o'clock
at night, they do stand the test of time. Cut
three a rop. We also have.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Won the popular vote.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
That was great battle.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Thank you, thank you very much.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
Ack Now winning the popular vote was very nice, very nice.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I will tell you it's.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
A great, a great feeling of love.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah, he certainly felt a great feeling of love from
the American voters last night. I know it's interesting when
you look back at the Republican candidates, whether it's George
Bush forty th or John McCain or Mitt Romney, all
of whom did never got the minority votes that Donald
Trump did. That's how he put that coalition together. This afternoon, finally,
(05:15):
to her credit, the Vice president, Vice President Harris came
out and conceded. And this is she had called president
like Trump earlier. This is cutting number thirty eight. Kamala Harris.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
I am here to say, while I conceide this election,
I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign,
the fight, the fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness
(05:56):
and the dignity of all people, a fight but the
ideals at the heart of our nation.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
And then finally, last night, I would be remiss if
I did not play this sound by This is where
is she here, I gotta get this one here. Oh yeah, Well,
here's one of the dumbest comments of the night. This
was Andrea Mitchell MSNBC. This is just dumb for someone
(06:31):
who's been in the business for as long as she's been.
Cut thirty one, Andrea Mitchell.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
Let's talk about gender rick broadly, though there certainly has
historically been and is there against her case for election,
which will rely heavily on women and the fact that
there are more women voters in the United States than men.
Is that running into headwinds because there are a lot
(06:59):
of men who just simply black and white men who
just simply don't trust a woman to be your chief
executive commander in chief. They just don't want to vote
for a woman.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
I think that's an ignorant statement, and it is. It's
also it's a racist and a sexist statement. She's accusing,
just as President Obama was accusing, you know, black men
of not voting for Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris because I
(07:34):
just don't get it. I don't get it. There were
lots of women, Andrea, who voted for Donald Trump for
whatever reason might have been the economy might have been
immigration might have been any of a number of things. Okay,
there were a lot of young people who voted for
Donald Trump, Andrea, believe it or not, look at the polls.
There were a lot. There was a significant number of
black men and Latino men and women and black women
(07:57):
who voted for Donald Trump. And that is a good
thing because people now are saying, I will vote for
the candidate that I think is going to respond best
to my needs and it doesn't necessarily break down on
racial lines. There were lots of white women who voted
and white men who voted for Kamala Harris. I mean,
(08:20):
why does it have to be Andrew Mitchell is stuck
in some sort and like people like her, stuck in
some sort of a nineteen early nineteen seventy one mindset.
Show me the person's gender, show me the person's color,
and I'll tell you how they're supposed to vote. In
my mind, how arrogant, how arrogant, and how stupid. And
(08:44):
that is what MSNBC is peddling as political insight. The
only line one right now six one, seven, nine, three, one,
ten thirty. I'm going to give you everybody an opportunity
take the gloves off. Tonight. Keep it within reason, keep
it within reason. Take a victory lap if you want.
If you happen to be someone who didn't vote for
(09:05):
Donald Trump and you want to tell me you want
to give him a chance, I think that would be
a good thing. And the other question, to Dave paley
Logus raised last hour, why shouldn't Donald Trump turn around
and offer Joe Biden was gracious enough to call him today,
offer a meeting at the White House, which Donald Trump
never offered to Joe Biden. Why not President Trump announced
(09:29):
I know what Joe Biden's son has gone through in
terms of his court cases, and Joe Biden tell Biden
that he was that he would pardon his son. I
think that would be a brilliant peace offering. I really
do I think that that that might, as Dave Paleologus said,
(09:51):
I had not thought of that. Some just an olive branch,
one small olive branch that I'm sure would mean a
lot Joe Biden, if not to the Democratic Party. And
we can talk about so many things tonight. I wonder
what Joe and Joe Biden talked about last night before
they turned in for the night in the Lincoln bedroom.
(10:13):
I wonder if Joe Biden looks now at Nancy Pelosi
and Chuck Schumer and says, you people stabbed me in
the back. I could have done just as well. I
might have even beaten Trump. I'm sure the thought has
crossed his mind. We're coming right back on Nightside. We're
going to phone calls for the rest of the night.
(10:34):
We got full lives right now. Don't dial when we
start to drop off, then dial back on Nightside after this.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World
night Side Studios. I'm WBZ News Radio.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
All right, let us head right to the phone's going
to start it off on the other side of the country.
Bob is in California. Bob, you are first this hour, Nightside,
Go right ahead.
Speaker 8 (10:59):
Yes, and good evening.
Speaker 9 (11:01):
Yeah. First, I would like to quickly take the victory lap.
I think if you remember it was a year ago
I predicted a Trump landslide.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
I do remember that I doubted you at the time.
I doubted you probably two nights ago. Yeah, you nailed it.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
Right.
Speaker 9 (11:19):
And a couple of things. In my opinion, I respectfully,
I do not agree at all with you about President
elect Trump pardoning Hunter Biden no way, no way, because
that will just reinforce the belief this is a double
standard of justice. Okay, for the son of a president,
(11:40):
you can get away with anything. But if she's the
average peon in America that committed the alleged crimes that
he did, you're going to do time. So that would
to me be a horrible move on President Trump's part,
absolutely horrible. He does not Trump does not need to
score any good will. You know, what do you like
right now? The people spoke, like the lady said last hour.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
The advantage the advantage of that, he could say to
here's what he could do with that, in my opinion,
and pale Logus made the suggestion, I'm just amplifying on
it a little bit.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
He could say, Look, I, as a public official, found
myself a defendant in a number of prosecutions, by the way,
two of which now are going to be just flushed
on the toilet, the federal prosecutions. And I think it
was unfair what was done to me. And I think
(12:36):
that probably President Biden's son suffered to some extent a
similar fate. And I think that I wanted to thank
President Biden for his service, and I'd like to remove
that burden from him of his son ever going to
jail something like that.
Speaker 9 (12:56):
Not at all, okay, and it's people are going to go, okay,
typical double standard, this bag.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Okay, I gonna argue with it, yep.
Speaker 8 (13:09):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (13:09):
The other thing, I think that in terms of the polls,
like they said last like the polls have missed three
elections in a row, they have missed badly, okay, in
terms of the outcome. And it goes right back to
the reason I predicted.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
No, I don't think they missed twenty twenty. I don't
think they missed twenty twenty, Bob. They missed twenty sixteen,
and they missed last night. Certainly the level of support
that the president had, the president elect had, I don't
think they missed twenty twenty.
Speaker 8 (13:37):
Okay, all right, I'll give you.
Speaker 9 (13:38):
I'll give you that. But my overall point is that
the polls, yeah, that was good. The polls, the politicians,
the legacy media, they are disconnected, including the top twenty
percent of the populace that is wealthy or apple middle class.
That twenty percent is so disconnected from the rest of America,
(14:00):
as is again your typical politicians, your legacy media. They
have no clue. These fancy expensive dinners in Washington, DC.
You know that the posters and politicians have. They'll spend
more money on a dinner than some families. So full,
we'll spend it a month on groceries. Okay, President Trump,
the President electrom got re elected. You know why because
(14:24):
again the people relate to him because he resonates with them.
And this whole thing about categorizing people I think is offensive.
The demographics black round white, This one should both with
the group and all that. No, it comes down to
individual situations. But again I'm going to just say it's
(14:44):
a disconnect and it's very apparent and President Electrom that
people spoke loudly, okay, that the work that really make
up this country. So there it is.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Burn up, appreciate the call. Bob as always right to
thank you, Thank you, sure, appreciate it all. Let's keep
rolling here. One line open, six, one, seven thirty. Let
me go to Mark in Maryland. Mark, you are next
on nightside. Go ahead, Mark, I.
Speaker 10 (15:12):
Was this morning on a local sound Trump at won.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Well, so did you get it? Did you vote for him? Yesterday? Mark?
Speaker 10 (15:22):
I wrote it on twin of four for the last month.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Okay, so you voted by mail or or somebody early voting.
Speaker 10 (15:30):
Yea love.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Now you've identified yourself to me as a black American before.
How with how much support amongst your friends in Baltimore?
A mongst your black friends in Baltimore did Donald Trump have?
Were you the the lone supporter of Donald Trump or
were the others?
Speaker 10 (15:51):
I'm a lone supporter and I'm not in Baltimore and.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Waldof Okay, got your Waldorf? Okay, I said Maryland here.
I forgot exactly what town you're in. So you you
went to bed last night not knowing what was going on,
but you woke up this morning and you're pretty happy.
Speaker 10 (16:08):
Yeah, at the follow o'clock I was jumping for.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Joy right out of bed. Yeah, all right, I don't.
Speaker 10 (16:16):
Have nothing with neither, but you know it still she
smiles too much from me.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Okay, all right, Mark, you got to call more off
and I miss hearing your voice.
Speaker 10 (16:27):
Okay, I'll call next week.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
All right, thank you, Mark, have a great one. Since
we doctor Mark, Let's go to William in Baltimore. William,
you were next on nightside. Go right ahead?
Speaker 11 (16:38):
Oh hey, how you going.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Don I'm doing great. William.
Speaker 11 (16:42):
Good to hear you went hard to get to your show.
I jumped in the night. I was lucky, but you
know I was a dumping porter. And Mark's in Waldorf.
That's in Charles County, southern Maryland. Yeah, about seventy five
miles off from Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Okay, gotcha. For some reason when whenever I h it
came up as you you come up as Baltimore, and
I know William in Baltimore, and I wasn't sure what
city Mark was from. I like anyone else, you say Massachusetts.
People think everybody's from Boston. That's right.
Speaker 11 (17:11):
I got a friend of mine live in uh hey,
what's that Haven Haven Harol Haverolril. Yeah, yeah, a friend of.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Mine, got it. You gotta kind of give it the
Boston pronounce the Massachusetts. The outside was just saying have
her Hill. No, it's have have.
Speaker 11 (17:26):
Right, that's yeah. But uh, you know, I've been a
Trump supporter, right, and uh, I know that I'm glad
he won, but and I voted for him. And you know,
me and my brother we are like the uh outlaws
and my family, you know. Uh, and some of the
people I talked to you, you know, they kind of liberal.
You know, I got some fun just liberal, but you know,
(17:47):
when I want to vote, I was like wow, man.
I was in the Poland place right and I was
like wow. I asked the lady, because you know, I'm glad,
I say, can anybody see me when I'm voted? And
she was like, oh no, no, that's all private. You know,
I said, because you know, you vote when you're blind,
you vote what a chief had and you know, so
I'll just wonder what was going on. But uh, you know,
I voted and everything, and I felt good. I was
(18:08):
kind of iffy, man. But I'm gonna tell you something.
I think Tom la Hers blew it. Like you said,
with the celebrities, U with the uh you know, she
just didn't give enough something and like she said, one
hundred and seven days. But the first month she had
the first.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Yeah, very very accessible on them when they asked a
simple questions, she yeah, I think I think it was
hers to win and I and I think a lot
of people probably took a look at her candidacy and
initially thought who this is interesting, and then the longer
that they looked, they said, there's nothing there. But she
(18:46):
didn't adequately address all the things that she had been
for when she was running for president in twenty nineteen.
She's opposed to fracking, and you know, she was in
favor of surgery for prison prisoners and people a prison,
and they trying on and on.
Speaker 11 (19:03):
Yeah, right then they tried to blame Trump for that,
but that was what I did. That was not Trump's
I did, you know. And uh and then with the uh,
I have a problem man. You know, people that are
gate that's fine, But I have a problem when they
want to go in the same bathroom with these nut
nut what they call them nutred gender bathrooms. And and
then with the children. Uh, you know, because I have
(19:23):
little nieces and nephews and you know, they're kids. Man,
I would like kids to stay kids. And you know,
these girls having to deal with uh men coming in
the bathroom on them. You know, I've just I got
a problem with that, man, And I think.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
A lot of people doing. I think the Democratic Party
has to kind of reassess that. Now they've said that
they support some of that, but I think it's a
step too far.
Speaker 11 (19:46):
Yeah, you know, And.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
That's that's that's a sense I'm getting from some friends
of mine who are Democrats and who are political leaders
in the Democratic Party, and then the Democrats got to
kind of get a little bit back towards the middle.
And and I also think that Trump needs to be careful.
Uh you know, he's talked about mass deportations. We don't
have the ability to do mass to a deep point, I.
Speaker 11 (20:10):
Think he's going to do what he suggested, remember you
said earlier, But uh, he's going to work with the
cour That's what I think he's going to do. That's
what and that's and that's.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
The step that I think most people are going to say,
good for you.
Speaker 9 (20:20):
I don't think that's you're going.
Speaker 11 (20:22):
To agree with that, right, But to these people are here,
it would be logistically impossible. Really, And then I wanted
to say this. I don't know if you notice or nothing,
because in a way I kind of agree with you
about hundred Boden because I remember Donald Trump. They was
talking about that you drink. I remember hearing him in
the interview. He said, no, he hates alcohol. You know,
he hates any kind of mine off, Yeah, because his
(20:42):
brother died from alcoholism, right, And he said brother was
an alcoholic and he died, and that's why he's wore
off alcohol and you know, I think he said that
brother was a power or something like that, you know,
but he drank himself to death. So just like you know,
I'm in a recovery and I understand about Hunter about him,
but either way, I don't want him to give him
not like what I've been as far as the drug
use and drinking. I can understand that. But that's up
(21:04):
to him. But I think it would be a good
justice because we definitely need to uh, as Americans. I
think we need to come together. Man, We just need
to come together, you know. And and I want all
these people to that was calling him a fascist and
all this kind of stuff that they were calling them. Right,
so when it comes times because it's some of these
people in this radio here in Baltimore and says some
vicious things today, man, and they're talking about coming January
(21:27):
the twentieth. Uh, he's gonna get dictated, you know. You know,
I just want all these I want all these people
to be proving wrong. And when it comes down to
him to leave a White House, He's gonna leave a
white house just like everybody else. Something that's gonna be
the last election and all this kind of parents on
you know, I mean, I think it's just ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (21:42):
Man.
Speaker 9 (21:43):
Nobody.
Speaker 11 (21:43):
Number one guy told me this morning he's going to
cut off so security. I said, he's not gonna cut
off those security man. He's not gonna do it. He
can't do it, you know.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
But you know, just yeah, I mean any politician who
would who would do that? There? Look, people who have
Social Security they worked for it or they are people
that they're American citizens with disabilities who have earned it,
and that's a contractual relationship that you have with the government. No,
I agree with you on that one too, as I've
(22:12):
told you, as I've told you before, William, you and
I we must somehow be related. I don't know how,
but I think we are. Okay, yeah, day, I'll hold
you up.
Speaker 8 (22:23):
Man.
Speaker 11 (22:23):
I know you got plenty of column right backyat you,
William for a while.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Well, do me a favorite. Don't be a don't be
a stranger. Come on, don't be a stranger.
Speaker 10 (22:33):
Man.
Speaker 12 (22:33):
I'll be trying to get in.
Speaker 9 (22:34):
It's just behind.
Speaker 11 (22:35):
So I think that went too long. And then when
you get jammed up, it's just odd, you know.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
I mean, alrighty there you William, Thank you soon all right,
at the bottom of the are we got the news
coming up six one, seven, two, five, four, ten thirty
six one seven, nine, three, one, ten thirty. Look, but
twenty four hours ago they were this election was up
in the air. It's in twenty four hours there's been
(23:02):
a concession. I'm sure it was very difficult for Vice
President Harris to go through that today. Give her credit
for it, Give her credit for it. And you got
to give Joe Biden credit for inviting. He could have
easily said, hey, he'd invite me to the White House.
I'm not going to invite him to the White House. Somehow,
some way, we got to stop this again, you know
(23:24):
this for that type treatment. And let's see, I mean,
who knows Dave Palelogus raised it. Look, I think there's
probably a lot more that Hunter Biden did that we
never got, we never figured out, or the prosecutors never
went after. But what a gesture by Donald Trump. If
(23:46):
he decided to make that gesture, I think a lot
of people would identify with it. I could be wrong,
but that's my thought, and I'd love to hear yours.
Moving back on night Side right after this.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I'm Boston's news radio.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Let's get right back, because we got Sue in Wooster.
Sue is a huge Trump supporter. She's gonna take a
victory lap here, go ahead, Sue.
Speaker 12 (24:15):
You're right, Dan, but I have to give you credit. Dan,
that's why you respected, you admitted you were wrong. Not
too many said that, especially on a Librarydio show.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
You know what I mean, everybody knows that.
Speaker 12 (24:32):
Yeah, that's why I have a lot of fans out here, Dan, really,
and I bet you Biden must have said to Jill
in bed I could have beat that son of but
I would have.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Loved I would have been a fly of the wall.
I mean, uh, it's pretty clear.
Speaker 12 (24:49):
That boy if they treated him lousy. Though, Dan, you
gotta admit if they didn't want him on the campaign, Trill,
I mean, come one.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
It's just it'll be interesting to see how much interaction
there is between the president and the vice president. You know,
as we moved through the holiday season, evers at the
White House, and then on inauguration.
Speaker 12 (25:17):
Day, Dan, what is she going to do now? Well,
because she's not going to be the president, does she
go back to the Senate? What does she do? Where
does she.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
She's still the vice president? Should be the vice president
until January twenties. Still, well, who knows she can go
and become a professor somewhere. I'm sure I don't think she.
I do not believe I think that her political days
are over. I do not believe that after having raised
(25:47):
the money that she went through, having that coming that close.
I mean, she was as of this time yesterday, she
was still possibly the next president of United States.
Speaker 12 (25:56):
Yeah, I don't think Dan, if you were that she
was a lousy candidate, she was. She was just like Killry.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
You know, Yes, it's funny. I'm going to disagree with
you that, and I'll tell you what. Okay, she's very presentable.
I don't think that she did a great job in
terms of answering questions. But look, if if she was
a lousy candidate, that's like saying when you beat a
team in sports, they were a lousy team. It kind
(26:26):
of takes away from from your credit that I think
you would want to claim for Donald Trump.
Speaker 12 (26:32):
I mean, and I agree with the couple of calls,
all these you had, denirow, you had Springfield, Bruce Springfield,
what's his name is?
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Am I saying Bruce Springstein.
Speaker 12 (26:45):
I'm thinking about one that I was.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Well, here's the question. Let I want to know, Uh,
I want to know the name of the first US
celebrity who decides to leave the country because Donald Trump
as president.
Speaker 12 (27:01):
Jeez, boy, do I have I know who I would
love to see.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
No, I'm not saying who you or I might love
to see. I'm saying who's going to leave on their own?
They make those threats.
Speaker 12 (27:13):
I know. Oh what a meltdown though on CNN Emmason.
I should be ashamed of themselves.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Really, I think I think that the mainstream news media,
meaning the three networks, the nightly newscast which I watch religiously,
I think that they all disgrace themselves. And I think
ABC News, which I tended to watch in recent weeks,
in recent news, really disgraced themselves. I thought that the
(27:43):
news coverage of just the day to day Monday through
Friday six thirty newscasters on ABC was over the top.
It would be like, I'm breaking news tonight. Donald Trump
has now said some horrible things. Meanwhile, the vice president
he continues on SLOVA steady campaign full of integrite.
Speaker 12 (28:05):
Yes, why I like cespiing because it's still you know,
nobody comments on it. Like Trump was in Chicago. He
went on a bus and he was talking with all
these black gentleman there, and one of them had the
bob shop, you know, and he says, hey, I'd like
(28:27):
my hair to be like yours. I can't do nothing
with mine. I like the puffin' trug. And the guy said,
I would love to give you a But he's got there.
I mean, he's I don't know the word, but he's
I'm gonna say, Dan, I don't if you think it,
but he's authentic. He goes right up to people.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
He just you know, I think the word authentic is important,
and I think that people see that. Okay, now again,
is he a multi billionaire? Yeah? Has he had business problems? Yeah?
Has he has. He made some really dumb state and
done some really dumb things. Absolutely, But guess what, probably
the average American has done some of those as.
Speaker 12 (29:05):
Well as I know what all around the country. What
it's in Chicago, you got Trump Towers, you got the
uh all these golf courses that he doped, you know,
all around the world. Din So we did something right,
you know, Well, he's.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
The president elect. He must have done something right. Sue.
I got packed lines. I'm going to let you go. Yeah.
Speaker 12 (29:26):
I respect you, Warren Ward Dan, even though we don't
agree sometimes, but I don't. You have a lot of
fans out here.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Thank you appreciate that. I really do so. Thank you
so much. Thank you very much. Have a great night.
Let me go to Ken in Michigan. Ken, you were
next on nightside. Welcome this first time calling Ken?
Speaker 5 (29:44):
No, No, I've called many times, all right. I think
what you're facing, in very absolute terms, is a rather
resounding rejection of the woke swore roll that came into
focus with the Biden presidency. You know, I think people
(30:09):
grew weary of the pronouns, the transgender athletes, men swimming
against women, on and on and on and on. People
just grew weary of it. And I think they want
they essentially have drawn a line in the sand, and
(30:29):
it was no.
Speaker 8 (30:31):
No.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
It's interesting, Ken, Just to support what you're saying, is
that the polls indicate that uh uh, former President Trump
now President elect Trump did very well amongst twenty somethings,
people you know, who are are young, right, and and
he didn't do as well with baby boomers. Normally, as
(30:55):
people get older, they tend to vote more Republican when
the younger So it was kind of the flip flop
of that and maybe some of those issues were were
in play with the young voters who decided to give
Trump a vote.
Speaker 5 (31:11):
Well, that could well be and on the side of
people going to flee the country or the never trumpers.
And I kind of, honestly, I kind of voted for
Donald Trump while holding my notes. They all the people
(31:34):
who are now uh decrying uh the president, the looming
presidency of Donald Trump. Uh, if they had any type
of investments out in the money world today, they made money. Yeah,
there was a big bump.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
I'm sure Robert de Niro had a good day in
the market.
Speaker 5 (32:03):
Yeah, they all made money. And but yet they hate Trump.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Whereabouts in Michigan, Remind me where you're from.
Speaker 5 (32:13):
I'm in the middle of the rock Belt. If you
draw a triangle connecting Flint, Lancing, Sagna, I'm right that
center in.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
That got you, Okay, I've been to Lancing as a
TV reporter many years ago. Uh, have a nice, nice community.
Speaker 8 (32:28):
Actually it is nice.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
I think we were in NBC station at that time,
and we did. There was an NBC station. It probably
has now changed it was like almost like a house.
It was really interesting. Huh oh to be there at Lancing.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
So yeah, there was, Yes, there was. There was an
NBC affiliate in Jackson, which is just a stone's throw
from Lansing.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
All right, all that's good, So my memories my memory served. Hey, Ken,
thanks very much. I'm sorry I have not remembered your
prior calls, but please call more often. Okay, I'd love
to hear from people in different parts of the country.
Speaker 5 (33:03):
You betcha.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Thanks Ken, have a great night, good night, all right,
I got to take quick break. Coming right back on
night Side. More calls, await. The only line open in six, one, seven, two, five, four,
ten thirty. We'll get just filled up. We're going to
have a busy night tonight, so keep dialing. I'll let
you know when the lines are open. Everything's booked right now.
Coming back on Nightside after this.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Now back to Dan ray Mine from the Window World
night Side Studios on w b Z News Radio.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
All right, let's go next to Joe and Lynn. Joe
joins us tonight. Joe, your thoughts on what happened last night?
Speaker 13 (33:36):
Well, I wrote you and told you. Yes, I'm glad
Trump won and I hope they don't pardon. And I
agree with Bob and the few other people pardon Biden's son.
He know better than anybody else he should take the consequences.
And I hope Trump does what he says he's going
to do.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
And okay, yeah, let me ask you this. You know
they always say the only thing worse than a sulu
who's the sole winner? What could what could Trump do?
Since Biden, you know, reached out and said, come on
to the White House, we'll have a meeting, which President
Obama did when Biden when Trump was first elected, I
don't recall Trump bringing Joe Biden to the White House.
Speaker 13 (34:15):
No, maybe maybe, maybe Trump will have the meeting. But
if this guy gets off, other people will get off.
Look what they do.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
Put that aside for a second. I'm just asking what
do you if you were Trump's advisor? Uh And he said, geeh,
I want to do something that kind of shows good
faith to the other side. I mean, obviously he's not
going to invite UH Vice President Harris to join his cabinet.
Give me something that you think he could do which
would be a sign of good faith, you know, some
(34:43):
sort of an olive Branch.
Speaker 13 (34:46):
I really don't know because what he's really funny thing
i'd like to say, I my I hope I get
that bag. Is my electoral votes around two hundred and
eighty to eighty five.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
Okay, yeah, people have no idea what you're talking about.
I know what you're talking about. I'll see what I
can do to try to help you out.
Speaker 13 (35:03):
Okay, Okay, Well I'm so glad he wont and I
hope he does straighten out this country. He has a
lot of work to do.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Dan the dought about that, no doubt. Joe couldn't agree.
Speaker 13 (35:14):
Okay, there's my victory left.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
Kay, let's keep rolling here, going to get everybody in
Wayne and Brockden. Wayne, you're next, Nightside welcome.
Speaker 8 (35:22):
Oh, thank for gods, it's over.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
Boy.
Speaker 8 (35:27):
You know I I shut off talk radio weeks and
weeks and weeks ago, in full disclosure, except for Busy.
I listened to Busy on and off all day long
because it's not Trump Trump, Harris, Harris, Bob, It's it's information.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
And you shut off Side too. Did you shut off
Night Side? No?
Speaker 8 (35:48):
No, no, no, because you tend to break it up
a little. It's just it's not, and you know when
you get him.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
That's one of the things that people were criticizing me
for you talking about the election. We talk about the
election enough, but I also felt it's important like a diet.
It's like I love steak. Let me eat steak every day. No,
you got to have a little fish chicken here.
Speaker 8 (36:08):
Sometimes you go ahead, go ahead, you got to break
it up. But as far as it's extending the olive branch. Now,
Steve Bannon just got out of jail last week, one
of Trump's closest confidants, and for doing what what did
he do?
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Well? He refused. He was held in contempt of Congress.
Speaker 8 (36:33):
Right what Hunter did twice at least twice. So I
think that, you know, no matter what, Trump could cure
cancer tomorrow, and the Democrats, I don't know if this
is dan, if this is going to be as bad
as twenty sixteen, he's not my president and impeach Trump
and all this, I think it's going to be worse
(36:53):
than that because the left has gone further to the left.
And you know, I'm on Liz Warren's Facebook page, have
been on there for months, and well, no, because I
want I want to know what but but really I
(37:14):
think she's got like I want to say, one point
two million followers, but it's just insane. And they called
Trump loyalists, the cultists, well all of her worshipers, they're
on there and oh, you're this, you're this, you're that.
She made like a three or four minute video today
and assuming she's you know, an accurate, uh litmus test
(37:38):
of what the Democrat Party is now, insane, all the lies,
dan if I said it right now and said, I'll.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
Try to find that. I'll try to find the Liz
video and uh, you know, if she's making a crazy video,
maybe we can play some of it tomorrow night so
people can really know. You you know, there's a benefit
to that, because I think that there's a lot of
Democrats frankly, who look at Liz Warren and say she
ain't the future of the Democratic Party because if she is,
(38:07):
they're going to become a minority party real quick. Maybe
not in Massachusetts, but a run. I don't think Liz
Warren helps the Democratic Party in much of the country.
Speaker 8 (38:18):
But a lot of the same things that Kamala is
saying now about you know, fight strong, fight to win.
You know, we're going forward and I mean to pick
your your mantras that they come up with, but I
don't see any coming together, any going across the I
think the Republicans should just take the ball and run
(38:38):
with it. The heck with the Democrats because they're just
not think. I think they're just got a stonewall at
every turn. And glad it's over. Let's talk about baseball
as some think.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Come on, we have many things to talk about. We'll
probably be talking about the Karen Reid argument tomorrow night
and at the State Supreme.
Speaker 8 (38:58):
No, that's another one. But anyway, Dan, I love you, man.
Speaker 2 (39:05):
All right, let me go. Yeah, I'm going to try
to get Rick and Bill, Rick and Rick. If you
can get it in in a minute and a half, great,
if you kind of.
Speaker 14 (39:12):
A all right, I'm relieved. I'm relieved. I'm relieved. I
was up till three thirty yesterday. I can't believe that
you saw the trends at nine thirty. You know more
about it, way more than me. But I was I
was planted. I couldn't leave. I was able to get
on Fox on my phone because my TV still did
and I was able to get on CNN, and uh,
(39:33):
CNN's at some point stopped pushing Kamala's numbers.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Well, it looked like a funeral at CNN.
Speaker 1 (39:40):
Yeah, I know it didn't.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Fox just turned the sound down and look at the faces.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
You knew, I know, you know.
Speaker 14 (39:46):
I'm just grateful today. And I think, uh, you know,
Wayne was I appreciate what Wayne was saying, but you know,
let's have a little hope. We're lucky. It looks like
we're going to clean the house. Let's have let's have
a little let's let's celebrate, and let's be kind. And
I was thinking about the whole pardoning of Hunter myself
this morning, and I think it's a good plan. It
(40:08):
shows the wackos out there, say the bilemin Antifa, there's
no need to burn this, you know, the city down.
I'm uh, you know, the city's around, don't burn him down.
I'm trying to help out. And I think it would
be a great thing to do. I really do, even
if he's guilt. I'm just saying I think it's a
good plan, and I'm just I'm relieved it's all over.
And I think I hope the President drum this is
(40:31):
this is.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
The time to try to build a little bit of
a bridge because you're more successful if he does.
Speaker 8 (40:36):
Rick, you got it, you much I did.
Speaker 14 (40:39):
I'll talk to you soon.
Speaker 10 (40:40):
Have thank you for a good night.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
Thanks, I talk to you. Rick is leaving six one.
Everything else's packs will continue right after the news break
at the top of the eleven
It's night with Dan Ray. I'm telling you feasy Boston
News Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
All right, I'll remember three, Kevin, I appear on the
night after the twenty twenty four election. Think about it.
We could have been sitting here tonight saying, well, it's
still too close to call, and there's still eight or
ten states out.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
We don't know what's going on in Pennsylvania. Michigan is
still uncalled. No, this ended quickly and decisively. It was
really over for all intents and purposes by nine thirty,
ten o'clock, ten thirty at the latest. If you looked
at how the numbers were coming in, and you looked
at where.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Donald Trump was compared to twenty twenty. Now, I'm going
to put on the table my inadequacies, and I'd love
to hear from you. I know all of you want
to take some victory laps, which is fine, but I
will tell you that I didn't think Donald Trump could
win a decisive election. I didn't think he could win
(01:04):
an election. I thought he could get You've heard me
say many times over the last a few years that
he could win a primary, but for him to win
a general election one to one, face off, if you
will would not be in the cards. Well, he did
(01:27):
more than that. He won one to one, beat the
vice president of the United States. It was a year
in which there were surprises galore. Two assassination attempts, both
of which and certainly the first of which he survived
by the skin of his teeth. If he had not
(01:49):
turned his head, he may not be the president elect.
I still remember that day vividly. I said that I
hope they would be a decisive win. And the reason
I wanted to see a decisive win was I'd like
to see the country to come together. I think we've
(02:10):
been estranged for far too long, and I don't know.
I'd like to hear tonight from some Harry supporters and
Democrats who are willing to say, hey, he won fair
and square, he ran a better race. Let's give him
an opportunity to succeed. They obviously are going to have
him on a short leash, and the first couple of
(02:33):
things that he does that are controversial will be back
at it. But when you think of the language that
was utilized in the campaign, when you think of the
fascist someone said, how does someone who's a fascist get
increased support from Latino voters? From black voters, increase support
(02:53):
from Jewish voters and Arab American voters. I don't think
he's a fascist, and I think that that language way
over the top. I think it was a good development
today that President Biden has invited him to come to
the White House. He should have done the same thing
(03:14):
with Joe Biden four years ago. So I thought the
suggestion that Dave Paleologus made was pretty interesting. What would
what would happen if if Donald Trump said, look, I
know what your son's been through because I was put
through the ring or two and I am going to
do the right thing, and you don't. You said you
(03:36):
weren't going to pardon your son. I'll pardon him again.
There comes a point in time where you say, okay,
you know, uh, that would not be a bad move
for Donald Trump. That would not be a bad move
for Donald Trump. Let me give you just a couple
of real quick sound bites to get us going here.
This is cut three a rob This is Donald Trump
(03:59):
talking early this morning about his election victory. The popular
vote is not complete, but certainly as of three o'clock
this morning his comments and even now at ten o'clock
at night, they do stand the test of time. Cut
three a rop. We also have.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Won the popular vote.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
That was great battle.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Thank you, thank you very much.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
Ack Now winning the popular vote was very nice, very nice.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I will tell you it's.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
A great, a great feeling of love.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah, he certainly felt a great feeling of love from
the American voters last night. I know it's interesting when
you look back at the Republican candidates, whether it's George
Bush forty th or John McCain or Mitt Romney, all
of whom did never got the minority votes that Donald
Trump did. That's how he put that coalition together. This afternoon, finally,
(05:15):
to her credit, the Vice president, Vice President Harris came
out and conceded. And this is she had called president
like Trump earlier. This is cutting number thirty eight. Kamala Harris.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
I am here to say, while I conceide this election,
I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign,
the fight, the fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness
(05:56):
and the dignity of all people, a fight but the
ideals at the heart of our nation.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
And then finally, last night, I would be remiss if
I did not play this sound by This is where
is she here, I gotta get this one here. Oh yeah, Well,
here's one of the dumbest comments of the night. This
was Andrea Mitchell MSNBC. This is just dumb for someone
(06:31):
who's been in the business for as long as she's been.
Cut thirty one, Andrea Mitchell.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
Let's talk about gender rick broadly, though there certainly has
historically been and is there against her case for election,
which will rely heavily on women and the fact that
there are more women voters in the United States than men.
Is that running into headwinds because there are a lot
(06:59):
of men who just simply black and white men who
just simply don't trust a woman to be your chief
executive commander in chief. They just don't want to vote
for a woman.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
I think that's an ignorant statement, and it is. It's
also it's a racist and a sexist statement. She's accusing,
just as President Obama was accusing, you know, black men
of not voting for Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris because I
(07:34):
just don't get it. I don't get it. There were
lots of women, Andrea, who voted for Donald Trump for
whatever reason might have been the economy might have been
immigration might have been any of a number of things. Okay,
there were a lot of young people who voted for
Donald Trump, Andrea, believe it or not, look at the polls.
There were a lot. There was a significant number of
black men and Latino men and women and black women
(07:57):
who voted for Donald Trump. And that is a good
thing because people now are saying, I will vote for
the candidate that I think is going to respond best
to my needs and it doesn't necessarily break down on
racial lines. There were lots of white women who voted
and white men who voted for Kamala Harris. I mean,
(08:20):
why does it have to be Andrew Mitchell is stuck
in some sort and like people like her, stuck in
some sort of a nineteen early nineteen seventy one mindset.
Show me the person's gender, show me the person's color,
and I'll tell you how they're supposed to vote. In
my mind, how arrogant, how arrogant, and how stupid. And
(08:44):
that is what MSNBC is peddling as political insight. The
only line one right now six one, seven, nine, three, one,
ten thirty. I'm going to give you everybody an opportunity
take the gloves off. Tonight. Keep it within reason, keep
it within reason. Take a victory lap if you want.
If you happen to be someone who didn't vote for
(09:05):
Donald Trump and you want to tell me you want
to give him a chance, I think that would be
a good thing. And the other question, to Dave paley
Logus raised last hour, why shouldn't Donald Trump turn around
and offer Joe Biden was gracious enough to call him today,
offer a meeting at the White House, which Donald Trump
never offered to Joe Biden. Why not President Trump announced
(09:29):
I know what Joe Biden's son has gone through in
terms of his court cases, and Joe Biden tell Biden
that he was that he would pardon his son. I
think that would be a brilliant peace offering. I really
do I think that that that might, as Dave Paleologus said,
(09:51):
I had not thought of that. Some just an olive branch,
one small olive branch that I'm sure would mean a
lot Joe Biden, if not to the Democratic Party. And
we can talk about so many things tonight. I wonder
what Joe and Joe Biden talked about last night before
they turned in for the night in the Lincoln bedroom.
(10:13):
I wonder if Joe Biden looks now at Nancy Pelosi
and Chuck Schumer and says, you people stabbed me in
the back. I could have done just as well. I
might have even beaten Trump. I'm sure the thought has
crossed his mind. We're coming right back on Nightside. We're
going to phone calls for the rest of the night.
(10:34):
We got full lives right now. Don't dial when we
start to drop off, then dial back on Nightside after this.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World
night Side Studios. I'm WBZ News Radio.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
All right, let us head right to the phone's going
to start it off on the other side of the country.
Bob is in California. Bob, you are first this hour, Nightside,
Go right ahead.
Speaker 8 (10:59):
Yes, and good evening.
Speaker 9 (11:01):
Yeah. First, I would like to quickly take the victory lap.
I think if you remember it was a year ago
I predicted a Trump landslide.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
I do remember that I doubted you at the time.
I doubted you probably two nights ago. Yeah, you nailed it.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
Right.
Speaker 9 (11:19):
And a couple of things. In my opinion, I respectfully,
I do not agree at all with you about President
elect Trump pardoning Hunter Biden no way, no way, because
that will just reinforce the belief this is a double
standard of justice. Okay, for the son of a president,
(11:40):
you can get away with anything. But if she's the
average peon in America that committed the alleged crimes that
he did, you're going to do time. So that would
to me be a horrible move on President Trump's part,
absolutely horrible. He does not Trump does not need to
score any good will. You know, what do you like
right now? The people spoke, like the lady said last hour.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
The advantage the advantage of that, he could say to
here's what he could do with that, in my opinion,
and pale Logus made the suggestion, I'm just amplifying on
it a little bit.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
He could say, Look, I, as a public official, found
myself a defendant in a number of prosecutions, by the way,
two of which now are going to be just flushed
on the toilet, the federal prosecutions. And I think it
was unfair what was done to me. And I think
(12:36):
that probably President Biden's son suffered to some extent a
similar fate. And I think that I wanted to thank
President Biden for his service, and I'd like to remove
that burden from him of his son ever going to
jail something like that.
Speaker 9 (12:56):
Not at all, okay, and it's people are going to go, okay,
typical double standard, this bag.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Okay, I gonna argue with it, yep.
Speaker 8 (13:09):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (13:09):
The other thing, I think that in terms of the polls,
like they said last like the polls have missed three
elections in a row, they have missed badly, okay, in
terms of the outcome. And it goes right back to
the reason I predicted.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
No, I don't think they missed twenty twenty. I don't
think they missed twenty twenty, Bob. They missed twenty sixteen,
and they missed last night. Certainly the level of support
that the president had, the president elect had, I don't
think they missed twenty twenty.
Speaker 8 (13:37):
Okay, all right, I'll give you.
Speaker 9 (13:38):
I'll give you that. But my overall point is that
the polls, yeah, that was good. The polls, the politicians,
the legacy media, they are disconnected, including the top twenty
percent of the populace that is wealthy or apple middle class.
That twenty percent is so disconnected from the rest of America,
(14:00):
as is again your typical politicians, your legacy media. They
have no clue. These fancy expensive dinners in Washington, DC.
You know that the posters and politicians have. They'll spend
more money on a dinner than some families. So full,
we'll spend it a month on groceries. Okay, President Trump,
the President electrom got re elected. You know why because
(14:24):
again the people relate to him because he resonates with them.
And this whole thing about categorizing people I think is offensive.
The demographics black round white, This one should both with
the group and all that. No, it comes down to
individual situations. But again I'm going to just say it's
(14:44):
a disconnect and it's very apparent and President Electrom that
people spoke loudly, okay, that the work that really make
up this country. So there it is.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Burn up, appreciate the call. Bob as always right to
thank you, Thank you, sure, appreciate it all. Let's keep
rolling here. One line open, six, one, seven thirty. Let
me go to Mark in Maryland. Mark, you are next
on nightside. Go ahead, Mark, I.
Speaker 10 (15:12):
Was this morning on a local sound Trump at won.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Well, so did you get it? Did you vote for him? Yesterday? Mark?
Speaker 10 (15:22):
I wrote it on twin of four for the last month.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Okay, so you voted by mail or or somebody early voting.
Speaker 10 (15:30):
Yea love.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Now you've identified yourself to me as a black American before.
How with how much support amongst your friends in Baltimore?
A mongst your black friends in Baltimore did Donald Trump have?
Were you the the lone supporter of Donald Trump or
were the others?
Speaker 10 (15:51):
I'm a lone supporter and I'm not in Baltimore and.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Waldof Okay, got your Waldorf? Okay, I said Maryland here.
I forgot exactly what town you're in. So you you
went to bed last night not knowing what was going on,
but you woke up this morning and you're pretty happy.
Speaker 10 (16:08):
Yeah, at the follow o'clock I was jumping for.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Joy right out of bed. Yeah, all right, I don't.
Speaker 10 (16:16):
Have nothing with neither, but you know it still she
smiles too much from me.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Okay, all right, Mark, you got to call more off
and I miss hearing your voice.
Speaker 10 (16:27):
Okay, I'll call next week.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
All right, thank you, Mark, have a great one. Since
we doctor Mark, Let's go to William in Baltimore. William,
you were next on nightside. Go right ahead?
Speaker 11 (16:38):
Oh hey, how you going.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Don I'm doing great. William.
Speaker 11 (16:42):
Good to hear you went hard to get to your show.
I jumped in the night. I was lucky, but you
know I was a dumping porter. And Mark's in Waldorf.
That's in Charles County, southern Maryland. Yeah, about seventy five
miles off from Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Okay, gotcha. For some reason when whenever I h it
came up as you you come up as Baltimore, and
I know William in Baltimore, and I wasn't sure what
city Mark was from. I like anyone else, you say Massachusetts.
People think everybody's from Boston. That's right.
Speaker 11 (17:11):
I got a friend of mine live in uh hey,
what's that Haven Haven Harol Haverolril. Yeah, yeah, a friend of.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Mine, got it. You gotta kind of give it the
Boston pronounce the Massachusetts. The outside was just saying have
her Hill. No, it's have have.
Speaker 11 (17:26):
Right, that's yeah. But uh, you know, I've been a
Trump supporter, right, and uh, I know that I'm glad
he won, but and I voted for him. And you know,
me and my brother we are like the uh outlaws
and my family, you know. Uh, and some of the
people I talked to you, you know, they kind of liberal.
You know, I got some fun just liberal, but you know,
(17:47):
when I want to vote, I was like wow, man.
I was in the Poland place right and I was
like wow. I asked the lady, because you know, I'm glad,
I say, can anybody see me when I'm voted? And
she was like, oh no, no, that's all private. You know,
I said, because you know, you vote when you're blind,
you vote what a chief had and you know, so
I'll just wonder what was going on. But uh, you know,
I voted and everything, and I felt good. I was
(18:08):
kind of iffy, man. But I'm gonna tell you something.
I think Tom la Hers blew it. Like you said,
with the celebrities, U with the uh you know, she
just didn't give enough something and like she said, one
hundred and seven days. But the first month she had
the first.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Yeah, very very accessible on them when they asked a
simple questions, she yeah, I think I think it was
hers to win and I and I think a lot
of people probably took a look at her candidacy and
initially thought who this is interesting, and then the longer
that they looked, they said, there's nothing there. But she
(18:46):
didn't adequately address all the things that she had been
for when she was running for president in twenty nineteen.
She's opposed to fracking, and you know, she was in
favor of surgery for prison prisoners and people a prison,
and they trying on and on.
Speaker 11 (19:03):
Yeah, right then they tried to blame Trump for that,
but that was what I did. That was not Trump's
I did, you know. And uh and then with the uh,
I have a problem man. You know, people that are
gate that's fine, But I have a problem when they
want to go in the same bathroom with these nut
nut what they call them nutred gender bathrooms. And and
then with the children. Uh, you know, because I have
(19:23):
little nieces and nephews and you know, they're kids. Man,
I would like kids to stay kids. And you know,
these girls having to deal with uh men coming in
the bathroom on them. You know, I've just I got
a problem with that, man, And I think.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
A lot of people doing. I think the Democratic Party
has to kind of reassess that. Now they've said that
they support some of that, but I think it's a
step too far.
Speaker 11 (19:46):
Yeah, you know, And.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
That's that's that's a sense I'm getting from some friends
of mine who are Democrats and who are political leaders
in the Democratic Party, and then the Democrats got to
kind of get a little bit back towards the middle.
And and I also think that Trump needs to be careful.
Uh you know, he's talked about mass deportations. We don't
have the ability to do mass to a deep point, I.
Speaker 11 (20:10):
Think he's going to do what he suggested, remember you
said earlier, But uh, he's going to work with the
cour That's what I think he's going to do. That's
what and that's and that's.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
The step that I think most people are going to say,
good for you.
Speaker 9 (20:20):
I don't think that's you're going.
Speaker 11 (20:22):
To agree with that, right, But to these people are here,
it would be logistically impossible. Really, And then I wanted
to say this. I don't know if you notice or nothing,
because in a way I kind of agree with you
about hundred Boden because I remember Donald Trump. They was
talking about that you drink. I remember hearing him in
the interview. He said, no, he hates alcohol. You know,
he hates any kind of mine off, Yeah, because his
(20:42):
brother died from alcoholism, right, And he said brother was
an alcoholic and he died, and that's why he's wore
off alcohol and you know, I think he said that
brother was a power or something like that, you know,
but he drank himself to death. So just like you know,
I'm in a recovery and I understand about Hunter about him,
but either way, I don't want him to give him
not like what I've been as far as the drug
use and drinking. I can understand that. But that's up
(21:04):
to him. But I think it would be a good
justice because we definitely need to uh, as Americans. I
think we need to come together. Man, We just need
to come together, you know. And and I want all
these people to that was calling him a fascist and
all this kind of stuff that they were calling them. Right,
so when it comes times because it's some of these
people in this radio here in Baltimore and says some
vicious things today, man, and they're talking about coming January
(21:27):
the twentieth. Uh, he's gonna get dictated, you know. You know,
I just want all these I want all these people
to be proving wrong. And when it comes down to
him to leave a White House, He's gonna leave a
white house just like everybody else. Something that's gonna be
the last election and all this kind of parents on
you know, I mean, I think it's just ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (21:42):
Man.
Speaker 9 (21:43):
Nobody.
Speaker 11 (21:43):
Number one guy told me this morning he's going to
cut off so security. I said, he's not gonna cut
off those security man. He's not gonna do it. He
can't do it, you know.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
But you know, just yeah, I mean any politician who
would who would do that? There? Look, people who have
Social Security they worked for it or they are people
that they're American citizens with disabilities who have earned it,
and that's a contractual relationship that you have with the government. No,
I agree with you on that one too, as I've
(22:12):
told you, as I've told you before, William, you and
I we must somehow be related. I don't know how,
but I think we are. Okay, yeah, day, I'll hold
you up.
Speaker 8 (22:23):
Man.
Speaker 11 (22:23):
I know you got plenty of column right backyat you,
William for a while.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Well, do me a favorite. Don't be a don't be
a stranger. Come on, don't be a stranger.
Speaker 10 (22:33):
Man.
Speaker 12 (22:33):
I'll be trying to get in.
Speaker 9 (22:34):
It's just behind.
Speaker 11 (22:35):
So I think that went too long. And then when
you get jammed up, it's just odd, you know.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
I mean, alrighty there you William, Thank you soon all right,
at the bottom of the are we got the news
coming up six one, seven, two, five, four, ten thirty
six one seven, nine, three, one, ten thirty. Look, but
twenty four hours ago they were this election was up
in the air. It's in twenty four hours there's been
(23:02):
a concession. I'm sure it was very difficult for Vice
President Harris to go through that today. Give her credit
for it, Give her credit for it. And you got
to give Joe Biden credit for inviting. He could have
easily said, hey, he'd invite me to the White House.
I'm not going to invite him to the White House. Somehow,
some way, we got to stop this again, you know
(23:24):
this for that type treatment. And let's see, I mean,
who knows Dave Palelogus raised it. Look, I think there's
probably a lot more that Hunter Biden did that we
never got, we never figured out, or the prosecutors never
went after. But what a gesture by Donald Trump. If
(23:46):
he decided to make that gesture, I think a lot
of people would identify with it. I could be wrong,
but that's my thought, and I'd love to hear yours.
Moving back on night Side right after this.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I'm Boston's news radio.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Let's get right back, because we got Sue in Wooster.
Sue is a huge Trump supporter. She's gonna take a
victory lap here, go ahead, Sue.
Speaker 12 (24:15):
You're right, Dan, but I have to give you credit. Dan,
that's why you respected, you admitted you were wrong. Not
too many said that, especially on a Librarydio show.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
You know what I mean, everybody knows that.
Speaker 12 (24:32):
Yeah, that's why I have a lot of fans out here, Dan, really,
and I bet you Biden must have said to Jill
in bed I could have beat that son of but
I would have.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Loved I would have been a fly of the wall.
I mean, uh, it's pretty clear.
Speaker 12 (24:49):
That boy if they treated him lousy. Though, Dan, you
gotta admit if they didn't want him on the campaign, Trill,
I mean, come one.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
It's just it'll be interesting to see how much interaction
there is between the president and the vice president. You know,
as we moved through the holiday season, evers at the
White House, and then on inauguration.
Speaker 12 (25:17):
Day, Dan, what is she going to do now? Well,
because she's not going to be the president, does she
go back to the Senate? What does she do? Where
does she.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
She's still the vice president? Should be the vice president
until January twenties. Still, well, who knows she can go
and become a professor somewhere. I'm sure I don't think she.
I do not believe I think that her political days
are over. I do not believe that after having raised
(25:47):
the money that she went through, having that coming that close.
I mean, she was as of this time yesterday, she
was still possibly the next president of United States.
Speaker 12 (25:56):
Yeah, I don't think Dan, if you were that she
was a lousy candidate, she was. She was just like Killry.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
You know, Yes, it's funny. I'm going to disagree with
you that, and I'll tell you what. Okay, she's very presentable.
I don't think that she did a great job in
terms of answering questions. But look, if if she was
a lousy candidate, that's like saying when you beat a
team in sports, they were a lousy team. It kind
(26:26):
of takes away from from your credit that I think
you would want to claim for Donald Trump.
Speaker 12 (26:32):
I mean, and I agree with the couple of calls,
all these you had, denirow, you had Springfield, Bruce Springfield,
what's his name is?
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Am I saying Bruce Springstein.
Speaker 12 (26:45):
I'm thinking about one that I was.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Well, here's the question. Let I want to know, Uh,
I want to know the name of the first US
celebrity who decides to leave the country because Donald Trump
as president.
Speaker 12 (27:01):
Jeez, boy, do I have I know who I would
love to see.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
No, I'm not saying who you or I might love
to see. I'm saying who's going to leave on their own?
They make those threats.
Speaker 12 (27:13):
I know. Oh what a meltdown though on CNN Emmason.
I should be ashamed of themselves.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Really, I think I think that the mainstream news media,
meaning the three networks, the nightly newscast which I watch religiously,
I think that they all disgrace themselves. And I think
ABC News, which I tended to watch in recent weeks,
in recent news, really disgraced themselves. I thought that the
(27:43):
news coverage of just the day to day Monday through
Friday six thirty newscasters on ABC was over the top.
It would be like, I'm breaking news tonight. Donald Trump
has now said some horrible things. Meanwhile, the vice president
he continues on SLOVA steady campaign full of integrite.
Speaker 12 (28:05):
Yes, why I like cespiing because it's still you know,
nobody comments on it. Like Trump was in Chicago. He
went on a bus and he was talking with all
these black gentleman there, and one of them had the
bob shop, you know, and he says, hey, I'd like
(28:27):
my hair to be like yours. I can't do nothing
with mine. I like the puffin' trug. And the guy said,
I would love to give you a But he's got there.
I mean, he's I don't know the word, but he's
I'm gonna say, Dan, I don't if you think it,
but he's authentic. He goes right up to people.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
He just you know, I think the word authentic is important,
and I think that people see that. Okay, now again,
is he a multi billionaire? Yeah? Has he had business problems? Yeah?
Has he has. He made some really dumb state and
done some really dumb things. Absolutely, But guess what, probably
the average American has done some of those as.
Speaker 12 (29:05):
Well as I know what all around the country. What
it's in Chicago, you got Trump Towers, you got the
uh all these golf courses that he doped, you know,
all around the world. Din So we did something right,
you know, Well, he's.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
The president elect. He must have done something right. Sue.
I got packed lines. I'm going to let you go. Yeah.
Speaker 12 (29:26):
I respect you, Warren Ward Dan, even though we don't
agree sometimes, but I don't. You have a lot of
fans out here.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Thank you appreciate that. I really do so. Thank you
so much. Thank you very much. Have a great night.
Let me go to Ken in Michigan. Ken, you were
next on nightside. Welcome this first time calling Ken?
Speaker 5 (29:44):
No, No, I've called many times, all right. I think
what you're facing, in very absolute terms, is a rather
resounding rejection of the woke swore roll that came into
focus with the Biden presidency. You know, I think people
(30:09):
grew weary of the pronouns, the transgender athletes, men swimming
against women, on and on and on and on. People
just grew weary of it. And I think they want
they essentially have drawn a line in the sand, and
(30:29):
it was no.
Speaker 8 (30:31):
No.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
It's interesting, Ken, Just to support what you're saying, is
that the polls indicate that uh uh, former President Trump
now President elect Trump did very well amongst twenty somethings,
people you know, who are are young, right, and and
he didn't do as well with baby boomers. Normally, as
(30:55):
people get older, they tend to vote more Republican when
the younger So it was kind of the flip flop
of that and maybe some of those issues were were
in play with the young voters who decided to give
Trump a vote.
Speaker 5 (31:11):
Well, that could well be and on the side of
people going to flee the country or the never trumpers.
And I kind of, honestly, I kind of voted for
Donald Trump while holding my notes. They all the people
(31:34):
who are now uh decrying uh the president, the looming
presidency of Donald Trump. Uh, if they had any type
of investments out in the money world today, they made money. Yeah,
there was a big bump.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
I'm sure Robert de Niro had a good day in
the market.
Speaker 5 (32:03):
Yeah, they all made money. And but yet they hate Trump.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Whereabouts in Michigan, Remind me where you're from.
Speaker 5 (32:13):
I'm in the middle of the rock Belt. If you
draw a triangle connecting Flint, Lancing, Sagna, I'm right that
center in.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
That got you, Okay, I've been to Lancing as a
TV reporter many years ago. Uh, have a nice, nice community.
Speaker 8 (32:28):
Actually it is nice.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
I think we were in NBC station at that time,
and we did. There was an NBC station. It probably
has now changed it was like almost like a house.
It was really interesting. Huh oh to be there at Lancing.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
So yeah, there was, Yes, there was. There was an
NBC affiliate in Jackson, which is just a stone's throw
from Lansing.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
All right, all that's good, So my memories my memory served. Hey, Ken,
thanks very much. I'm sorry I have not remembered your
prior calls, but please call more often. Okay, I'd love
to hear from people in different parts of the country.
Speaker 5 (33:03):
You betcha.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Thanks Ken, have a great night, good night, all right,
I got to take quick break. Coming right back on
night Side. More calls, await. The only line open in six, one, seven, two, five, four,
ten thirty. We'll get just filled up. We're going to
have a busy night tonight, so keep dialing. I'll let
you know when the lines are open. Everything's booked right now.
Coming back on Nightside after this.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Now back to Dan ray Mine from the Window World
night Side Studios on w b Z News Radio.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
All right, let's go next to Joe and Lynn. Joe
joins us tonight. Joe, your thoughts on what happened last night?
Speaker 13 (33:36):
Well, I wrote you and told you. Yes, I'm glad
Trump won and I hope they don't pardon. And I
agree with Bob and the few other people pardon Biden's son.
He know better than anybody else he should take the consequences.
And I hope Trump does what he says he's going
to do.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
And okay, yeah, let me ask you this. You know
they always say the only thing worse than a sulu
who's the sole winner? What could what could Trump do?
Since Biden, you know, reached out and said, come on
to the White House, we'll have a meeting, which President
Obama did when Biden when Trump was first elected, I
don't recall Trump bringing Joe Biden to the White House.
Speaker 13 (34:15):
No, maybe maybe, maybe Trump will have the meeting. But
if this guy gets off, other people will get off.
Look what they do.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
Put that aside for a second. I'm just asking what
do you if you were Trump's advisor? Uh And he said, geeh,
I want to do something that kind of shows good
faith to the other side. I mean, obviously he's not
going to invite UH Vice President Harris to join his cabinet.
Give me something that you think he could do which
would be a sign of good faith, you know, some
(34:43):
sort of an olive Branch.
Speaker 13 (34:46):
I really don't know because what he's really funny thing
i'd like to say, I my I hope I get
that bag. Is my electoral votes around two hundred and
eighty to eighty five.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
Okay, yeah, people have no idea what you're talking about.
I know what you're talking about. I'll see what I
can do to try to help you out.
Speaker 13 (35:03):
Okay, Okay, Well I'm so glad he wont and I
hope he does straighten out this country. He has a
lot of work to do.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Dan the dought about that, no doubt. Joe couldn't agree.
Speaker 13 (35:14):
Okay, there's my victory left.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
Kay, let's keep rolling here, going to get everybody in
Wayne and Brockden. Wayne, you're next, Nightside welcome.
Speaker 8 (35:22):
Oh, thank for gods, it's over.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
Boy.
Speaker 8 (35:27):
You know I I shut off talk radio weeks and
weeks and weeks ago, in full disclosure, except for Busy.
I listened to Busy on and off all day long
because it's not Trump Trump, Harris, Harris, Bob, It's it's information.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
And you shut off Side too. Did you shut off
Night Side? No?
Speaker 8 (35:48):
No, no, no, because you tend to break it up
a little. It's just it's not, and you know when
you get him.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
That's one of the things that people were criticizing me
for you talking about the election. We talk about the
election enough, but I also felt it's important like a diet.
It's like I love steak. Let me eat steak every day. No,
you got to have a little fish chicken here.
Speaker 8 (36:08):
Sometimes you go ahead, go ahead, you got to break
it up. But as far as it's extending the olive branch. Now,
Steve Bannon just got out of jail last week, one
of Trump's closest confidants, and for doing what what did
he do?
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Well? He refused. He was held in contempt of Congress.
Speaker 8 (36:33):
Right what Hunter did twice at least twice. So I
think that, you know, no matter what, Trump could cure
cancer tomorrow, and the Democrats, I don't know if this
is dan, if this is going to be as bad
as twenty sixteen, he's not my president and impeach Trump
and all this, I think it's going to be worse
(36:53):
than that because the left has gone further to the left.
And you know, I'm on Liz Warren's Facebook page, have
been on there for months, and well, no, because I
want I want to know what but but really I
(37:14):
think she's got like I want to say, one point
two million followers, but it's just insane. And they called
Trump loyalists, the cultists, well all of her worshipers, they're
on there and oh, you're this, you're this, you're that.
She made like a three or four minute video today
and assuming she's you know, an accurate, uh litmus test
(37:38):
of what the Democrat Party is now, insane, all the lies,
dan if I said it right now and said, I'll.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
Try to find that. I'll try to find the Liz
video and uh, you know, if she's making a crazy video,
maybe we can play some of it tomorrow night so
people can really know. You you know, there's a benefit
to that, because I think that there's a lot of
Democrats frankly, who look at Liz Warren and say she
ain't the future of the Democratic Party because if she is,
(38:07):
they're going to become a minority party real quick. Maybe
not in Massachusetts, but a run. I don't think Liz
Warren helps the Democratic Party in much of the country.
Speaker 8 (38:18):
But a lot of the same things that Kamala is
saying now about you know, fight strong, fight to win.
You know, we're going forward and I mean to pick
your your mantras that they come up with, but I
don't see any coming together, any going across the I
think the Republicans should just take the ball and run
(38:38):
with it. The heck with the Democrats because they're just
not think. I think they're just got a stonewall at
every turn. And glad it's over. Let's talk about baseball
as some think.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Come on, we have many things to talk about. We'll
probably be talking about the Karen Reid argument tomorrow night
