Seven two six, six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay,
lot of reaction to Grace's hit, both pro and con uh.
This is from six h three, Jeff, I normally agree
with your wife on everything, but today, man, is she
off base Trump? A globalist? Trump betraying Maga? What did
(00:27):
she put in her coffee this morning? I don't know.
Six o three. That's a very good question, geez. You
would think he invaded Gaza, by the way, Grace was
so passionate and opposed to it. Okay. This is from
Mary Anne on Messenger, who liked Grace's hit, and Mary
Anne is a big Trump supporter.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
By the way.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Maga conservative all the way. Good morning, Jeff. I could
not articulate exactly what I wanted to say here, but
Grace did it eloquently. It's rare that I disagree with you,
but I am in total agreement with Grace here. Sometimes
Trump's ego does get ahead of him, and She's right.
(01:09):
We reject globalism and that's what this is. Thank you,
Grace for putting into words what I was trying to
and could not. So let me ask all of you.
Gray says, this idea of controlling the Godza strip the
United States having long term control and trying to resettle
(01:29):
Palestinians across the region to other countries, to start building
homes for them, community schools. This is not what MAGA
voted for. These are the actions of globalism. Not that
Trump is a globalist, but that this is this is,
(01:51):
this is this is a globalist initiative, and that if
Biden had suggested something like this, we would report, we
would reject it out of hand. And Grace's point is
we elected Trump to take care of our country, our needs,
our business, stay out of the Middle East. Agree, disagree?
(02:12):
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Lorenzo in South Boston. Thanks for holding, Lorenzo, and.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Welcome, Hi Jeff, thanks for taking my call, my pleasure. Lorene, Well,
I disagree with your wife, with all due respect. I
know she doesn't like Trump. I know any chance she
gets you best and Trump, but hey, she is the
smart lady and uh yeah, you married up too. But
(02:43):
I totally disagree.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
With that, Lorenzo. Can I ask you this no, no, Jay,
because just between you and me among two guys here,
why do you think Grace has this edge against Trump,
that she likes to stick it to him, you know.
Just she loves to stick it to him.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
And I know she was very big on DeSantis, and
you know, does her guy lost? Is it sour grapes
on DeSantis? Or is it that she's still upset that
he's on his third wife? Like that's the thing. There's
an emotional animist towards Trump that I noticed from Grace
pops up from time to time, and honestly, I just
(03:24):
I can't relate to it. I don't understand it. What's
your theory, Lorenzo, Because I never cheated on her, you
know what I'm saying, Like, you know, I it's like, well,
Trump treated on his you know she he cheated on
his first couple of wives. But I never cheated on you, honey.
So it's not like you were married to Trump, you
know what I'm saying. So it's not like you're if
you were married to him. Okay, I get it, you're bitter,
(03:45):
But I never cheated on her. So why does it
bother her so much that Trump is on his third wife,
two divorces, and apparently cheated on his first two wives
or maybe even the third wife. Lorenzo, what say you
my friend.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Well, Jeff, uh yeah, it's probably the anti thing. But
you know, if this Antas said that, you got to
ask him when you got home. You got to say, Babe, hey,
what if this Antha said that? See your reaction. But
you guys are a great couple. I get a kick
out of it too. It reminds me of Burns and
Alan member the old TV show. Yes that being said,
(04:21):
you know what what Trump?
Speaker 6 (04:23):
You know he said last night night speech, he said,
you know, this is what he'd like to do because
it's not working. And in the definition of sanity, right,
we all we know the old depression doing the same
thing over and over again. But he also said, Jeff
that this is not going to work. And I you
know you said it. I think you said it in
(04:44):
a couple Uh. You know the things you were talking
about today is if you don't change the education. He
said that, if you don't change the mindset of the youth,
it's not gonna work. So going in there doing anything
that has to be on the table or or it's
not going to work because you know, they teach these
(05:05):
kids at three four years old to be like that.
That's what I heard out of Trump Joe, you.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Know you're dead on Oh and you got to see
the videos. What they teach the kids in school. It's disgusting,
you know, three years old, four years old, five years old,
it's vile. It really is. No look, Lorenzo, and that's
you're right. And the other thing is and you know,
Trump was clear. He goes, look, I'm not going to
invade Gaza. And it was like, oh, American imperialism, Oh
(05:33):
my god. He said, look, it's a proposal. I'm telling
you that if we ran it, I think we would
run it very well. And maybe we need to think
about resettling Palestinians because what they've been doing the last
hundred years isn't working. It's a recommendation. It's a proposal.
It's an idea. I'm not calling in the Marines. I'm
(05:54):
not going to declare war on Gaza and send in,
you know, one hundred thousand American troops and an exta
damn thing. He's just saying, look, I'm looking at what's worked,
and so far nothing has worked. So I'm thinking maybe
we try a different tack. Now. Look, I think we
should stay out of the Middle East. I don't think
we should take control of Gaza. You know my position,
(06:15):
but this, you know overreaction where they're like, oh my god,
he's gonna invade, He's gonna invade. Six one, seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight. Many of you are
texting the cooner man, emailing the cooner man, messaging the
cooner man, Jeff, what have you lost your mind? Taking
(06:36):
on Grace like this? So I just want to say,
for the record, if something happens to me tonight, if
I mysteriously I don't know pass away or what happened
when he just died of a heart attack in the
middle of the night, it wasn't an accident, Okay, I
just I want everybody it wasn't an accident. Seven six,
(07:01):
six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay, let
me ask all of you. Gray says Trump jumped the shark, essentially,
that he should have kept this to himself, that he's
getting a little bit too big for his breeches now
after a very successful first couple of weeks, and that
(07:22):
this is not a good proposal, and that she believes
that in the end it won't hurt him if he
backs away, but if he continues to push for this
Gaza initiative, it's going to damage his presidency and consume
valuable political capital. Do you agree? Six one seven two
(07:43):
six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number? Is
Trump making a globalist proposal when he's pushing for the
US to take over Gaza and to resettle the Palestinians
among other in other countries. Six two six six sixty
eight sixty eight is the number, Sonny in Boston. Thanks
(08:08):
for holding, Sonny, and welcome.
Speaker 7 (08:11):
All right, Jeff, thank you for taking my call.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
My pleasure, sir.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Yeah, it's going to take ten years to clean the debris,
the explosives, and to clean up the septic system, the water,
it's all contaminated. I believe that Israel should stay there
for the entire post war reconstruction of the Gaza Strip
(08:40):
and get financial help maybe from the Muslim countries of
the United Nations. But first they have to finish the
job with Hamas. They have to capture all their leaders,
put them in trial, just like they did during them
Umberg trials. We know that two states solution doesn't work.
(09:05):
After it's all reconstructed, they have to come up with
maybe return it to the Palestinians. But this is going
to take ten or twelve years to do. It's not
something that you know, the United States. We have to
rebuild California. We don't need to be rebuilding that. The
(09:27):
guys are stript.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I love that phrase. I think it's to me, it's
the checkmate argument. We need to be, you know, rebuilding
California or Hawaii, you know, Lahina. You know, I could
go on, or East Palestine in Ohio. You know, not
Palestine in the Middle East, but East Palestine in Ohio.
We've got so much quote unquote nation building to do
here at home. I agree with you, Sonny, Sonny, I'm
(09:52):
just curious because this is really the issue that Trump
is driving to the four. What he's really saying is
that the Palestinians have failed at self governance. The Palestinians
ultimately can't run their own affairs. It's been one hundred
years of failure, hatred, death, destruction, and maybe it's time
(10:14):
to ship them out. He said, Yeah, some Palestinians can stay,
those that really want to prosper and contribute. But for
the others, let's take care of them. Put them in homes,
put them in nice communities, and even if it's not
the United States, the UN, a group of Western powers,
whatever it may be. But turn the Gaza's strip into
(10:37):
something where you can economically develop prosper But that if
you keep the Palestinians there, in the end, they're just
going to want to attack and commit atrocities and declare
holy war, and it's going to be the same vicious
cycle over and over and over again. Does Trump have
(10:59):
a point?
Speaker 7 (11:01):
He has a point, Jeff. I was there fifty years
ago for the Sixth Day War in the sixth Fleet,
and the same thing is happening today. We need to
have changes in the Gaza Strip. I think Trump, she's
forty five miles of waterfront property and he wants to
(11:22):
rebuild it all. But let the Europeans do it and
let Israel stay there.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
I like that time, Sonny. I love everything you said,
and in particular, let Israel run it for ten fifteen years.
You know, whatever it takes. I'm so with you. That's
what I mean. I don't mean this in a nasti
or negative way against Israel when I say it's their problem,
let me deal with it. What I'm just saying is, look,
you know, we have a problem with Mexico and Canada. Well,
(11:50):
it's not fair to ask other kinds, you know, at
to ask out of Germany. Eat that did Germans would say, hey, guys, Mexico,
that's your problem, man, but that's your border, that's your
neck of the it's your neck of the woods. We
got our own problems. So you know, That's what I
say to Israel. No disrespect, really, but Gaza's literally on
your border. And as Gray said, Hamas viciously attacked Israel,
(12:15):
committed grotesque war crimes, taking advantage of Israel's lacks security.
And it was an internal security failure that allowed Hamas
to run wild and rampage and heinously kill all those men,
women and children. To me, let Israel deal with Gaza.
Nobody knows the area better, nobody understands the Palestinians better. Frankly,
(12:39):
they're going to do a phenomenal job rebuilding Gaza. The
Israelis are great builders. So I'm thinking this is this
is Israel's issue. Let Israel deal with it, Sonny. I'm
with you all the way, my friend, Sonny. Thank you
very much for that call. In other words, we don't
have to get involved in everything all the time. You know,
(13:00):
especially when we have so many of our own problems
here at home. You know, call me crazy. Six one
seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number.
Peter in Worcester. Thanks for holding, Peter, and welcome. Thanks Hi, Peter.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Your wife is one hundred percent right, Go ahead, Peter,
all right?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Why I'm just curious. Why do you think she's right?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Go ahead, Peter, Well, because we have right now. There's
two things that worry me every day. I'm retired, i
have two daughters that are you know, and I'm looking
at America where we're going and everything like that. Absolutely not.
We don't need to get involved anymore in the Middle East.
What worries me about every day is we need to
(13:51):
contain China. Remember Joe Biden saying China is gonna eat
out lunch. All right, They're gonna eat out lunch. And
you know what really worries me is that the debt,
the debt ceiling and everything at the debt in this country.
We got to knock it down. That should be Trump's priority,
That should be number one priority, is to reduce the
(14:11):
debt so the kids that in the future, my kids,
their kids, and the kids down the road. Are not
going to inherit the nightmare that we've made them. And
the other thing that really worries me, jem is that
the China is all gun ho. We're getting the dollar
taken down as the peg currency of the world. If
(14:32):
the dollar is worth nothing, then whale worth nothing. And
I believe that should be Trump's priority. China is number one.
China is China is basically doing everything globally under mine
in the United States of America. We need we need a
policy like George Kennon with containments like they did with
the Soviet unions. All right, And I don't know what
(14:55):
to say. I don't even know where he was thinking
or what he was thinking when he said this. I'm
I'm fully behind Trump one hundred but he hit over
his skis on this one.
Speaker 7 (15:06):
And I don't know.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
I think I think Grace is right.
Speaker 6 (15:09):
I really do, Peter.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
On China, I agree one thousand percent on the debt.
I agree one thousand percent on every point that you've made,
I agree one thousand percent. Let me throw one more
quick point and see if you agree or disagree. The
other thing that kind of shocked me a little bit
about his comment was, I'm like, you got this war
raging between Russia and Ukraine, and let me just play
(15:36):
a cut. Do we have time? Okay, very quickly, Peter,
I want to get your reaction. This is Zelensky, Okay,
the strong man of Ukraine. Listen now to him with
Pierce Morgan roll cut eleven, Mike.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Which support package? Which missiles? Will we be giving nuclear weapons?
Then let them give us nuclear weapons. Will they give
us the missiles in the quantities that we can stop Russia?
And I'm not sure of that, but I think it
(16:14):
would help. Otherwise, what missiles can stop Russia's nuclear missiles?
That is a rhetoric question.
Speaker 8 (16:23):
So let's do it the following weak give us back
nuclear arms, give us missile systems, partners, help us finance
the one million army move your contingent on the parts
of our state where we want the stability of the
situation so that the people have tranquility.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Peter, he wants nuclear missiles. He wants us to give
him nuclear weapons. As you know, Russia has the most
nuclear weapons in the world. Let's go to Moses in
Long Island. Thanks for holding Moses.
Speaker 7 (17:00):
Welcome, Hey Jeff, good morning, brother.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Moses, I haven't heard from you in a while. How
are you, my friend?
Speaker 9 (17:07):
Yeah, I'm doing great, Thank the Lord.
Speaker 7 (17:10):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Jeff can't complain, Moses. Well, I mean I got a flu,
which is really great. I got it from Eva, who
gave it to me, so I'm feeling a little bit
under the weather. But outside of that, Moses, I can't complain. Buddy,
What do you make of this?
Speaker 9 (17:28):
You know what, Jeff, I got to say, first and foremost,
I agree wholeheartedly with everything great said. And if you recall,
I'm as big a Trump fan as they could be. Yes,
but you know, this is the nag of movement. It's
non globalism, it's America first, and the whole idea of him,
(17:48):
you know, raining in the USAID and then you know,
to contemplate spending all this because it'll be a ton
of money over there. I think it's just a bad idea.
I think she explained it perfectly well. Where Trump, you know,
he gets on fire and then instead of sitting back
and letting the Democrats drownd themselves, you know, he ends
(18:09):
up doing something like this. But that being said, the
point I think that could be best made and tying
it in with the whole you know, Ukraine days, especially
for these warhawk Republicans, how do you how do you
how do you explain us being mad at Russia and
you know, going the world over there for you know,
(18:31):
dealing with things that are right next to their doorsets
and us coming from all the way over here to
go deal with with with Israel. And listen, I love Israel,
but Israel is probably the number one israel first country
there is, Like you know, they like I'm saying that
they care about their country over everything, so like, you know,
let them deal with that and if they need a
(18:52):
little bit of help, Okay, I understand that. But to
sit there and try to take over a situation, I
just I don't like it. I don't like them, you know,
the whole news cycle. I'll have a field day with it.
I think he's on fire right now. And you needs
to just keep her goaling. You know, where this intervention
is thing is, it's what's gotten us right where we are.
And uh, it is, like she said, there's just so
(19:13):
much to deal with it. And by the way, that
that was a beautiful put when you said you should
be worried about East Palestine in Ohio, not Palestine and
in Israel. You know that. That's how I feel about it.
It's just it makes absolute no sense and the only
bad things can come from it. Now. The idea is
a novel one, but uh, you know, like you said
(19:34):
it to tell, God's going to be a minimum ten
year playing and uh, you know these things are hate
and miss I mean Iraq.
Speaker 7 (19:41):
Was that really worth it?
Speaker 9 (19:42):
Possibly?
Speaker 7 (19:44):
I guess.
Speaker 9 (19:44):
You know, they seem like they're doing okay right now,
but most of the time what happens is what happens
in that Dvanistan, what happened in uh, all these other
countries that we try to go out and help out,
And the reality is they got to do it the
way our false forefathers did it. You want your freedom,
you want to you want you got to do it
yourself because nobody's gonna do it for you.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Amen, Amen, Moses. Honestly, I could not have said it
better myself. Dropped to Mike. Moses, you're back, Please, Moses,
don't be a stranger now you got to call again. Okay,
thank you, Moses, God bless you, my friend. No, he's
completely right. Look, we got to deal with the drug
cartels who are you know, we got we're outsourcing our manufacturing,
(20:26):
our jobs. Now, God blessed Trump. He's dealing with that,
of course, but we've got mass deportations of violent criminal illegals.
We've got so much on our plate. We've got so
many Americans that are in desperate need. We need to
take on Gaza like we need a hole in the head.
And you know Trump, I know he's working behind the
(20:47):
scenes with Putin and Zelensky to try to end that war.
But you know what's more important to the national interest
of the United States. That's why I played the Zelenski cut.
This guy's talking nuclear weapons. He wants us to give
him nukes. So can you imagine if Russia and Ukraine
start goes, you know, escalates to a nuclear war. So,
(21:08):
you know, Israel is Israel first, as they should be.
Let them deal with the Palace. They seem to be
doing a phenomenal job, frankly, so I'm like, guys, have
at it, But we got other fires to put out.
So I'm with you all the way. Moses Heidi in Northborough.
Thanks for holding Heidi, and welcome.
Speaker 10 (21:28):
Good morning, Jeff. How are you good?
Speaker 1 (21:30):
How are you Heidi? Heidi? I don't mean to rush you.
We have less than two minutes go go.
Speaker 10 (21:36):
I think Trump needs to slow his role a little
bit when it comes to foreign affairs. I think a
lot of people here are saying, you know, they're not
seeing any changes in the prices and things are still
going up, and they're blaming him even though he's only
been in office for two weeks. And I think maybe
he needs to start to concentrate on that and win
some of the confidence of the people who voted for him,
(21:58):
and then maybe start to that other stuff, like continue
with the deportations, the things, and get the prices of
oil and regular groceries down, and then people will be
more open to him doing some of this other stuff.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Heidi point blank, do you want America to get involved
in Gaza? Do you think we should control it or
manage it or run it, or do you think ultimately
it's none of our business.
Speaker 10 (22:24):
Right now? I think we have an other more important thing,
so it's none of our business. Down the road that
may change, but today, right now, we have to take
care of our own and take care of our country.
Seven two six, six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay,
lot of reaction to Grace's hit, both pro and con uh.
This is from six h three, Jeff, I normally agree
with your wife on everything, but today, man, is she
off base Trump? A globalist? Trump betraying Maga? What did
(00:27):
she put in her coffee this morning? I don't know.
Six o three. That's a very good question, geez. You
would think he invaded Gaza, by the way, Grace was
so passionate and opposed to it. Okay. This is from
Mary Anne on Messenger, who liked Grace's hit, and Mary
Anne is a big Trump supporter.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
By the way.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Maga conservative all the way. Good morning, Jeff. I could

Grace did it eloquently. It's rare that I disagree with you,

Trump's ego does get ahead of him, and She's right.

Trump is a globalist, but that this is this is,
(01:51):
this is this is a globalist initiative, and that if

we elected Trump to take care of our country, our needs,
our business, stay out of the Middle East. Agree, disagree?
(02:12):
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Lorenzo in South Boston. Thanks for holding, Lorenzo, and.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Welcome, Hi Jeff, thanks for taking my call, my pleasure. Lorene, Well,
I disagree with your wife, with all due respect. I
know she doesn't like Trump. I know any chance she
gets you best and Trump, but hey, she is the
smart lady and uh yeah, you married up too. But
(02:43):
I totally disagree.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
With that, Lorenzo. Can I ask you this no, no, Jay,
because just between you and me among two guys here,
why do you think Grace has this edge against Trump,
that she likes to stick it to him, you know.
Just she loves to stick it to him.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
And I know she was very big on DeSantis, and
you know, does her guy lost? Is it sour grapes
on DeSantis? Or is it that she's still upset that
he's on his third wife? Like that's the thing. There's
an emotional animist towards Trump that I noticed from Grace
pops up from time to time, and honestly, I just
(03:24):
I can't relate to it. I don't understand it. What's

or maybe even the third wife. Lorenzo, what say you
my friend.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Well, Jeff, uh yeah, it's probably the anti thing. But
you know, if this Antas said that, you got to
ask him when you got home. You got to say, Babe, hey,
what if this Antha said that? See your reaction. But
you guys are a great couple. I get a kick
out of it too. It reminds me of Burns and
Alan member the old TV show. Yes that being said,
(04:21):
you know what what Trump?
Speaker 6 (04:23):
You know he said last night night speech, he said,
you know, this is what he'd like to do because
it's not working. And in the definition of sanity, right,

damn thing. He's just saying, look, I'm looking at what's worked,
and so far nothing has worked. So I'm thinking maybe
we try a different tack. Now. Look, I think we
should stay out of the Middle East. I don't think
we should take control of Gaza. You know my position,
(06:15):
but this, you know overreaction where they're like, oh my god,
he's gonna invade, He's gonna invade. Six one, seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight. Many of you are
texting the cooner man, emailing the cooner man, messaging the
cooner man, Jeff, what have you lost your mind? Taking
(06:36):
on Grace like this? So I just want to say,
for the record, if something happens to me tonight, if
I mysteriously I don't know pass away or what happened
when he just died of a heart attack in the
middle of the night, it wasn't an accident, Okay, I
just I want everybody it wasn't an accident. Seven six,
(07:01):
six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay, let
me ask all of you. Gray says Trump jumped the shark, essentially,
that he should have kept this to himself, that he's
getting a little bit too big for his breeches now
after a very successful first couple of weeks, and that
(07:22):
this is not a good proposal, and that she believes
that in the end it won't hurt him if he
backs away, but if he continues to push for this
Gaza initiative, it's going to damage his presidency and consume
valuable political capital. Do you agree? Six one seven two
(07:43):
six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number? Is
Trump making a globalist proposal when he's pushing for the
US to take over Gaza and to resettle the Palestinians
among other in other countries. Six two six six sixty
eight sixty eight is the number, Sonny in Boston. Thanks
(08:08):
for holding, Sonny, and welcome.
Speaker 7 (08:11):
All right, Jeff, thank you for taking my call.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
My pleasure, sir.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Yeah, it's going to take ten years to clean the debris,
the explosives, and to clean up the septic system, the water,
it's all contaminated. I believe that Israel should stay there
for the entire post war reconstruction of the Gaza Strip
(08:40):
and get financial help maybe from the Muslim countries of
the United Nations. But first they have to finish the
job with Hamas. They have to capture all their leaders,
put them in trial, just like they did during them
Umberg trials. We know that two states solution doesn't work.
(09:05):
After it's all reconstructed, they have to come up with
maybe return it to the Palestinians. But this is going
to take ten or twelve years to do. It's not
something that you know, the United States. We have to
rebuild California. We don't need to be rebuilding that. The
(09:27):
guys are stript.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I love that phrase. I think it's to me, it's
the checkmate argument. We need to be, you know, rebuilding
California or Hawaii, you know, Lahina. You know, I could
go on, or East Palestine in Ohio. You know, not
Palestine in the Middle East, but East Palestine in Ohio.
We've got so much quote unquote nation building to do
here at home. I agree with you, Sonny, Sonny, I'm
(09:52):
just curious because this is really the issue that Trump
is driving to the four. What he's really saying is
that the Palestinians have failed at self governance. The Palestinians
ultimately can't run their own affairs. It's been one hundred
years of failure, hatred, death, destruction, and maybe it's time
(10:14):
to ship them out. He said, Yeah, some Palestinians can stay,
those that really want to prosper and contribute. But for
the others, let's take care of them. Put them in homes,
put them in nice communities, and even if it's not
the United States, the UN, a group of Western powers,
whatever it may be. But turn the Gaza's strip into
(10:37):
something where you can economically develop prosper But that if
you keep the Palestinians there, in the end, they're just
going to want to attack and commit atrocities and declare
holy war, and it's going to be the same vicious
cycle over and over and over again. Does Trump have
(10:59):
a point?
Speaker 7 (11:01):
He has a point, Jeff. I was there fifty years
ago for the Sixth Day War in the sixth Fleet,
and the same thing is happening today. We need to
have changes in the Gaza Strip. I think Trump, she's
forty five miles of waterfront property and he wants to
(11:22):
rebuild it all. But let the Europeans do it and
let Israel stay there.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
I like that time, Sonny. I love everything you said,
and in particular, let Israel run it for ten fifteen years.
You know, whatever it takes. I'm so with you. That's
what I mean. I don't mean this in a nasti
or negative way against Israel when I say it's their problem,
let me deal with it. What I'm just saying is, look,
you know, we have a problem with Mexico and Canada. Well,
(11:50):
it's not fair to ask other kinds, you know, at
to ask out of Germany. Eat that did Germans would say, hey, guys, Mexico,
that's your problem, man, but that's your border, that's your
neck of the it's your neck of the woods. We
got our own problems. So you know, That's what I
say to Israel. No disrespect, really, but Gaza's literally on
your border. And as Gray said, Hamas viciously attacked Israel,
(12:15):
committed grotesque war crimes, taking advantage of Israel's lacks security.
And it was an internal security failure that allowed Hamas
to run wild and rampage and heinously kill all those men,
women and children. To me, let Israel deal with Gaza.
Nobody knows the area better, nobody understands the Palestinians better. Frankly,
(12:39):
they're going to do a phenomenal job rebuilding Gaza. The
Israelis are great builders. So I'm thinking this is this
is Israel's issue. Let Israel deal with it, Sonny. I'm
with you all the way, my friend, Sonny. Thank you
very much for that call. In other words, we don't
have to get involved in everything all the time. You know,
(13:00):
especially when we have so many of our own problems
here at home. You know, call me crazy. Six one
seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number.
Peter in Worcester. Thanks for holding, Peter, and welcome. Thanks Hi, Peter.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Your wife is one hundred percent right, Go ahead, Peter,
all right?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Why I'm just curious. Why do you think she's right?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Go ahead, Peter, Well, because we have right now. There's
two things that worry me every day. I'm retired, i
have two daughters that are you know, and I'm looking
at America where we're going and everything like that. Absolutely not.
We don't need to get involved anymore in the Middle East.
What worries me about every day is we need to
(13:51):
contain China. Remember Joe Biden saying China is gonna eat
out lunch. All right, They're gonna eat out lunch. And
you know what really worries me is that the debt,
the debt ceiling and everything at the debt in this country.
We got to knock it down. That should be Trump's priority,
That should be number one priority, is to reduce the
(14:11):
debt so the kids that in the future, my kids,
their kids, and the kids down the road. Are not
going to inherit the nightmare that we've made them. And
the other thing that really worries me, jem is that
the China is all gun ho. We're getting the dollar
taken down as the peg currency of the world. If
(14:32):
the dollar is worth nothing, then whale worth nothing. And
I believe that should be Trump's priority. China is number one.
China is China is basically doing everything globally under mine
in the United States of America. We need we need a
policy like George Kennon with containments like they did with
the Soviet unions. All right, And I don't know what
(14:55):
to say. I don't even know where he was thinking
or what he was thinking when he said this. I'm
I'm fully behind Trump one hundred but he hit over
his skis on this one.
Speaker 7 (15:06):
And I don't know.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
I think I think Grace is right.
Speaker 6 (15:09):
I really do, Peter.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
On China, I agree one thousand percent on the debt.
I agree one thousand percent on every point that you've made,
I agree one thousand percent. Let me throw one more
quick point and see if you agree or disagree. The
other thing that kind of shocked me a little bit
about his comment was, I'm like, you got this war
raging between Russia and Ukraine, and let me just play
(15:36):
a cut. Do we have time? Okay, very quickly, Peter,
I want to get your reaction. This is Zelensky, Okay,
the strong man of Ukraine. Listen now to him with
Pierce Morgan roll cut eleven, Mike.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Which support package? Which missiles? Will we be giving nuclear weapons?
Then let them give us nuclear weapons. Will they give
us the missiles in the quantities that we can stop Russia?
And I'm not sure of that, but I think it
(16:14):
would help. Otherwise, what missiles can stop Russia's nuclear missiles?
That is a rhetoric question.
Speaker 8 (16:23):
So let's do it the following weak give us back
nuclear arms, give us missile systems, partners, help us finance
the one million army move your contingent on the parts
of our state where we want the stability of the
situation so that the people have tranquility.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Peter, he wants nuclear missiles. He wants us to give
him nuclear weapons. As you know, Russia has the most
nuclear weapons in the world. Let's go to Moses in
Long Island. Thanks for holding Moses.
Speaker 7 (17:00):
Welcome, Hey Jeff, good morning, brother.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Moses, I haven't heard from you in a while. How
are you, my friend?
Speaker 9 (17:07):
Yeah, I'm doing great, Thank the Lord.
Speaker 7 (17:10):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Jeff can't complain, Moses. Well, I mean I got a flu,
which is really great. I got it from Eva, who
gave it to me, so I'm feeling a little bit
under the weather. But outside of that, Moses, I can't complain. Buddy,
What do you make of this?
Speaker 9 (17:28):
You know what, Jeff, I got to say, first and foremost,
I agree wholeheartedly with everything great said. And if you recall,
I'm as big a Trump fan as they could be. Yes,
but you know, this is the nag of movement. It's
non globalism, it's America first, and the whole idea of him,
(17:48):
you know, raining in the USAID and then you know,
to contemplate spending all this because it'll be a ton
of money over there. I think it's just a bad idea.
I think she explained it perfectly well. Where Trump, you know,
he gets on fire and then instead of sitting back
and letting the Democrats drownd themselves, you know, he ends
(18:09):
up doing something like this. But that being said, the
point I think that could be best made and tying
it in with the whole you know, Ukraine days, especially
for these warhawk Republicans, how do you how do you
how do you explain us being mad at Russia and
you know, going the world over there for you know,
(18:31):
dealing with things that are right next to their doorsets
and us coming from all the way over here to
go deal with with with Israel. And listen, I love Israel,
but Israel is probably the number one israel first country
there is, Like you know, they like I'm saying that
they care about their country over everything, so like, you know,
let them deal with that and if they need a
(18:52):
little bit of help, Okay, I understand that. But to
sit there and try to take over a situation, I
just I don't like it. I don't like them, you know,
the whole news cycle. I'll have a field day with it.
I think he's on fire right now. And you needs
to just keep her goaling. You know, where this intervention
is thing is, it's what's gotten us right where we are.
And uh, it is, like she said, there's just so
(19:13):
much to deal with it. And by the way, that
that was a beautiful put when you said you should
be worried about East Palestine in Ohio, not Palestine and
in Israel. You know that. That's how I feel about it.
It's just it makes absolute no sense and the only
bad things can come from it. Now. The idea is
a novel one, but uh, you know, like you said
(19:34):
it to tell, God's going to be a minimum ten
year playing and uh, you know these things are hate
and miss I mean Iraq.
Speaker 7 (19:41):
Was that really worth it?
Speaker 9 (19:42):
Possibly?
Speaker 7 (19:44):
I guess.
Speaker 9 (19:44):
You know, they seem like they're doing okay right now,
but most of the time what happens is what happens
in that Dvanistan, what happened in uh, all these other
countries that we try to go out and help out,
And the reality is they got to do it the
way our false forefathers did it. You want your freedom,
you want to you want you got to do it
yourself because nobody's gonna do it for you.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Amen, Amen, Moses. Honestly, I could not have said it
better myself. Dropped to Mike. Moses, you're back, Please, Moses,
don't be a stranger now you got to call again. Okay,
thank you, Moses, God bless you, my friend. No, he's
completely right. Look, we got to deal with the drug
cartels who are you know, we got we're outsourcing our manufacturing,
(20:26):
our jobs. Now, God blessed Trump. He's dealing with that,
of course, but we've got mass deportations of violent criminal illegals.
We've got so much on our plate. We've got so
many Americans that are in desperate need. We need to
take on Gaza like we need a hole in the head.
And you know Trump, I know he's working behind the
(20:47):
scenes with Putin and Zelensky to try to end that war.
But you know what's more important to the national interest
of the United States. That's why I played the Zelenski cut.
This guy's talking nuclear weapons. He wants us to give
him nukes. So can you imagine if Russia and Ukraine
start goes, you know, escalates to a nuclear war. So,
(21:08):
you know, Israel is Israel first, as they should be.
Let them deal with the Palace. They seem to be
doing a phenomenal job, frankly, so I'm like, guys, have
at it, But we got other fires to put out.
So I'm with you all the way. Moses Heidi in Northborough.
Thanks for holding Heidi, and welcome.
Speaker 10 (21:28):
Good morning, Jeff. How are you good?
Speaker 1 (21:30):
How are you Heidi? Heidi? I don't mean to rush you.
We have less than two minutes go go.
Speaker 10 (21:36):
I think Trump needs to slow his role a little
bit when it comes to foreign affairs. I think a
lot of people here are saying, you know, they're not
seeing any changes in the prices and things are still
going up, and they're blaming him even though he's only
been in office for two weeks. And I think maybe
he needs to start to concentrate on that and win
some of the confidence of the people who voted for him,
(21:58):
and then maybe start to that other stuff, like continue
with the deportations, the things, and get the prices of
oil and regular groceries down, and then people will be
more open to him doing some of this other stuff.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Heidi point blank, do you want America to get involved
in Gaza? Do you think we should control it or
manage it or run it, or do you think ultimately
it's none of our business.
Speaker 10 (22:24):
Right now? I think we have an other more important thing,
so it's none of our business. Down the road that
may change, but today, right now, we have to take
care of our own and take care of our country.
