Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, Cooner contry. Okay, my friends, everybody, myself included. Frankly,
we were expecting a slugfest on Friday when incoming mayor
of New York City, a Islamo communist Zorn Mamdani, met

(00:23):
with President Donald Trump. Yet instead of what I thought
was going to be fireworks, arguments, debate back and forth. Instead,
there's no other way to say it, it turned into
an absolute romance. It was shocking, It was disconcerting. It

(00:47):
It was one of the few events in American history,
at least recent history, where both the right and the
left had the same reaction shock, disbelief, and astonishment. Now,
President Trump had already signaled ahead of the meeting that

(01:08):
he was going to be very civil to Mom Donnie,
that he wanted there. He wanted to be polite to
Mom Donnie and focus on areas of what he said
there was agreement. But even with that warning that he
had given, or forewarning, I guess people were still shocked
at how warm, how friendly, how affectionate the two of

(01:33):
them were, not just at the White House impromptu press
conference in the Oval Office, but the way Trump rolled
out the red carpet for Mam Donnie he brought him in.
He apparently gave him a very gracious tour of the
White House. They then spoke for forty five minutes in private,

(01:57):
where they said they didn't talk about any area of
disagreement whatsoever. Honestly, I'm thinking, well, what is there to
talk about, because according to the last couple months, if
you look at the statements both men have made, they
disagree on everything, literally everything. So they said, no, they

(02:19):
want to make New York City more affordable. They want
to drive down the cost of food, the cost of rent,
the cost of utilities, they want to build more housing
and so, saying that was their area of agreement. They
then went and held an oval office Q and A

(02:40):
with reporters and man oh Man. They were backslapping each other,
especially frankly Trump more than Mamdani. Trump was backslapping him,
grabbing him by the arm, congratulating him, praising him. Here
is exactly what Trump said, according to President Trump, zoron Mumdani, who,

(03:04):
by the way, dozens of times President Trump on truth
Social called him a gihotist and especially a communist, and
went on to say that he was going to destroy
New York City with his policies. By the way, he
was right on all three counts. Suddenly did a complete

(03:25):
one tot eighty. He said that Mumdanni is going to
shock conservatives, that he is going to end up being
quote unquote a great mayor, maybe even the greatest mayor
in the history of New York City, That Mumdanni wants
safe streets, that Mumdanni has a program and a plan

(03:48):
of action that will make New York City much more affordable,
and that, in fact, Trump openly admitted when asked, well,
would you live in New York City under a Mumdanni leadership,
under a under a Mumdannie mayalty, Trump said, in a heartbeat,

(04:09):
in a heartbeat. And so he repeatedly praised maum Donnie
again and again up to and including, for me, the
shocking moment when he was a mum Donnie was asked,
point blank, you have called Trump repeatedly a fascist, a dictator,

(04:31):
and a despot. In fact, you said he's going to
have to go through you to get to the people
of New York. Do you want to retract anything that
you said? And maum Donnie was doing a hola hola
hola hola hola hola, basically mumbling and stumbling, and then
Trump warmly grabs his arm, smiles, looks up at him

(04:54):
and says, oh, come on, just say it, Just say it,
say yes, say yes. You think I'm a fascist and
a dictator, I've been called worse, and so Mumdanni, nodding
his head, smiling with that snake oil salesman smile of his,
just yeah, he's still a fascist. He's still at death spot.

(05:15):
But hey, we agree on affordable housing. Now. If you notice,
and this is not unique on my part, many people
have pointed this out. Even though Trump repeatedly praised the
Islamo fascist call me Mumdanni, Mumdnnie never returned the favor.

(05:41):
He was warm, he was backslapping, but he never actually
praised Donald Trump. It was all a one way street.
Trump was praising Mumdanni. And so the question now is
why why why would President Trump legitimize an Islamo communist

(06:09):
like Momdani, who, if he implements even one tenth of
what he says he's going to implement, will literally destroy
the most important city in the United States of America,
And according to people who are MAGA supporters, By the way,

(06:30):
most of MAGA was upset. Most of MAGA. I think
even to this day it's been about what is it,
forty eight seventy two hours. They're still shock and dumbfounded.
Many are still scratching their heads. But anyway, what they're
trying to do now is they're trying to rationalize what happened,
and so they're trying to claim Trump is playing three

(06:53):
D chess four dchess. I'm not kidding. Some new sites
are even saying twelve D chess okay, which doesn't exist,
but let that go. In other words, this this is
such political genius that we're talking about almost on a
godlike level. And the question I have for all of

(07:16):
them is, in other words, Trump is co opting Mumdanni.
Trump is charming Mumdanni. Trump is embracing Mumdanni so he
can mitigate his jihadism, he can mitigate his communism, He'll
have more influence over Mumdani, and he can then dilute

(07:39):
a lot of what he wants to do and essentially
save New York from destruction. That's the you know, four
D six D a D ten D, twelve D chess argument.
My answer is very simple. What did Trump actually accomplish?

(07:59):
What did he ACCOMPLI with this meeting? Where's the checkmate?
If you're playing chess, the goal is checkmate. So what
did he accomplish with this four D, six D twelve
D meeting? He legitimized an Islamo communist. Frankly, I never

(08:20):
would have allowed him to come into the Oval office.
He gave that alone I thought was too much. But
then to say the stuff that he said. Here, here's
President Trump, roll cut ten Mike.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
For you.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
You referred to instrument on. He's communists, he's strive. Why
do you feel that way? And also will you do
any meaning to stop him from arresting prime instrument up?

Speaker 2 (08:51):
Jesus, Well, we didn't discuss your second part of the question,
and on your first part. I mean, he's got views
and a little out there, but who knows. I mean,
we're going to see what works or he's going to change.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Also, we all change.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
I change a lot, change a lot from when I
first came to office. It's now quite a while ago.
It's quite a while. My first term was great. We
had the greatest economy in the history of our country.
We're doing even better now. We're doing much better now
than we did even the first term. And I can
tell you some of my views have changed, and we
had discussions on something. I'm going to discuss what they were,

(09:27):
but that I feel very confident that he can do
a very good job. I think he's going to be
I think he is going to surprise some conservative people actually,
and some very liberal people. He won't surprise him because
they already like him.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
So he's going to survive. He's going to surprise conservatives.
In other words, he's going to be a lot more
effective than we were giving him credit for. Okay, so
and I'll play some more of the cuts, the shocking cuts.
He has legitimized Mamdanie. He never should have done that. Furthermore,
he was asked point blank, do you believe you're now

(10:03):
meeting with a jihadist? Trump answered no, explicitly, in fact,
saying who I met today was a very rational man,
basically the opposite of a jihadist. So I believe, frankly,
these words are gonna haunt Trump. I think he made
a big mistake. I think he never should have met

(10:24):
with Momdanni. And I think you know, slobbering all over him,
like this is going to come back and haunt him.
And I'll tell you why, because now Mamdannie can say
that even Trump has given him his seal of approval,
and so as he begins his systematic dismantling and destruction

(10:46):
of New York, this will be the ar domestic Munich
whereby Trump met with the Slamaux Communists and was silent
and appeased him. I want to ask all of you
what did you make of Trump's historic media a meeting
forgive Me with Mayor elect of New York City, Zoran

(11:11):
the Kami, Mam Donnie. It was a romance, especially on
Trump's side, Praise after praise after praise. Listen now to
President Trump openly saying, this man is talented, according to Trump,

(11:32):
and he would be very comfortable, very comfortable in living
in a New York run by Mamdanni. Roll cut eleven
a mic. Would you feel comfortable living in New York
City under a Mandani?

Speaker 3 (11:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (11:49):
I would really, especially after the meeting.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
Absolutely what makes you?

Speaker 2 (11:54):
We agree and a lot more than I would have thought.
I think he's I want him to do a great
job and we'll help him. Do you know he may
have different views. But in many ways, you know, we
were discussing when Bernie Sanders was out of the race,
I picked up a lot of his votes, and people
had no idea because he was strong on not getting
ripped off in trade and lots of the things that
I've practiced and have been very successful on tariffs, a

(12:16):
lot of things Bernie Sanders and I agreed on much
more than people thought, and when he was put out
of the race, I think quite unfairly, if you want
to know the truth, many of the Bernie Sanders voters
voted for me, and I felt very comfortable frankly and
seeing that and saying that, and you know, it just
turned out to be a statistical truth. But no, I

(12:39):
feel very comfortable. That would be I would feel very
very comfortable being in New York, and I think much
more so after the meeting.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
I'm telling you, Look, honestly, I'm not comfortable living in
New York. But then again, I'm not of And that's
the thing. He's a billionaire. I mean, Trump is literally
the guy that mom Donnie wants to chase out of
New York. This is stunning, I'll be honest with you.
It's stunning. Now, I think I understand what Trump is

(13:07):
trying to do, to be fair to him. Obviously, it's
a charm offensive and he thinks he can outcharm Mom Donnie,
and that he praises him, kind of takes him under
his wing, embraces him, and this way he can really
influence him and dilute what he thinks is a lot
of the radicalism of some of his policies. But you

(13:33):
dance with the devil and you're gonna, I'm telling you,
you're gonna. You know, you don't seduce the devil. The
devil ends up seducing you. And you know. I want
to get into this a little bit later, But there's
actually a term in Islam takia where you are permitted
by Islam, by Islamic law, to lie to the infidel.

(13:55):
You can't lie to fellow Muslims, that's considered a sin,
but you can lie to non Muslims, especially if you
consider that person your enemy, and to do to gain
an advantage. And so I don't know what Mumdannie told
him behind closed doors, but I wouldn't trust I wouldn't
trust him as far as I can throw him. Every

(14:16):
second word out of his mouth is a lie, And
what is there? I mean, by the way, after the meeting,
and I want to play just a few cuts because
I want you to hear it. Maumdani didn't change any
at least publicly. He didn't change any of his positions.
So rent control, check government run grocery stores. Check Sharia

(14:41):
law in the mayor's office, in the mayor's mansion. Check
arresting Benjamin Netanyahu. Check supporting radical Palestinian activists. Check ties
to the Muslim brotherhood. Check thirty dollars an hour minimum wage.

(15:01):
Check free buses. Check defunding the police. Check abolishing prisons.
Check you know, by the way, having social workers respond
to nine to one one domestic violence calls. Check. I
don't want to live in that kind of a city.

(15:22):
Like what are you crazy? You know, soak the wealthy,
soak the billionaires. Raise taxes on all business owners across
the board, raised taxes on white neighborhoods. I'm good, No,
I'm good. No, I don't need that. So and this
is now the problem I think Trump faces. Yeah, it

(15:44):
may have been a charm offensive and maybe he thinks
he's you know, co opted, mum donnie. I don't think
he has, at least by the way Mum Donnie is
talking afterwards. But now you've got a problem because now
the question is going to be asked. We've got two
hundred true social posts going back months where all you

(16:06):
do rightly is criticize Mumdanni, excoriate Mumdani, expose unmasked Mumdani.
And suddenly now one forty five minute meeting, and I'm
using this is Trump's words, He's gonna be one of
the greatest mayors New York has ever had, maybe the

(16:26):
greatest ever. I swear to God, I thought I was
gonna barf when I saw that. I'm like, I'm gonna
throw up, like aya yai, Aya yai. Now listen to this,
This was Trump asked, point blank. Is now remember this

(16:49):
is the supporter of Hamas. This is a supporter of
the Muslim Brotherhood. This is a man who said, quote,
globalize the Intifada. This is a man who wants Israel
wiped off the face of the map. This is a
man who is helping the Muslim Brotherhood literally cut checks

(17:13):
to radical pro Palestinian activists engaging in naked anti Semitism
on college campuses. This is a man who says he
wants to drive the Jews out of New York City,
and Trump says, you know, the media says, but you
know you've called him a jahatist. Listen now to Trump's response,

(17:38):
roll cut twelve Mike.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
Public.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
At least the five has campaigned multiple times by collins
Errom'mdani a jahadist. Do you think you're sitting next to
a jahadist right now in the OVERLA office? No?

Speaker 2 (17:50):
I know, but she's out there campaigning, and yeah, you
say things sometimes in a campaign. She's a very capable person,
but you know, you really have to ask her about that.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
But I don't.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
I met with a very I met with a man
who's a very rational person. I met with a man
who wants to really wants to see New York be
great again. And I can say again because New York
was great.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
Oh my god, he wants to make New York great again?
Are you kidding me? He is the second coming of
Sidney con the mayor of London that's driven London into
the ground in fact one. And I got to tell
you one of the optics that's going to stay with

(18:38):
me from that meeting forever. Okay, what did you make
of the now really infamous meeting between Trump and Zoron,
Mom Donnie, I want to play one more cut, and
then I want to go to the phone lines six
one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay. Now,

(18:58):
of everything that was said, this is the one that
I think is going to live on for a very
long time for both men. And that is when a
New York Post reporter asks Mam Donnie point blank, and
he's standing now above President Trump. Again, as I said
that to me, I found very disconcerting. Trump is sitting down,

(19:21):
Mam Donnie is standing, but he's standing behind him, and
it's almost as if he's looking at the desk, you know,
and and and the you know, the Oval Office desk,
and Mam Donnie clearly clearly is in his Lombist. I mean,
he said it repeatedly. He's viewed as in is Lamist.
He sees himself as an Islamist. He's got massive support

(19:44):
from his Lomeist organizations, led by the Muslim Brotherhood among others.
And there he is not just in the Oval Office,
but what not even six inches standing and powering over
the President the United States. Because Trump is sitting down

(20:04):
and you can almost see it in his eyes. Islam
is now this close to capturing this desk, this office,
the White House itself. And only twenty five years ago,
not even twenty four years ago, there was the nine
to eleven attacks. So we've gone from ground zero to

(20:29):
now me being welcomed. Welcomed they rolled out the red
carpet for an Islamo communist who, by the way, to
this day continues to minimize what happened on nine to eleven,
and in fact, just so that you know, is now
supporting a candidate in New York City that basically said

(20:53):
America had what was coming to it on nine to eleven,
a radical pro Palaceian Islamist who now is basically saying,
you know, the United States got what it deserved. Okay,
So this is the man now that is standing above Trump.
And so the New York Post reporter Nelson, his last

(21:17):
name is Nelson Ben Nelson, who's been breaking stories about
Mamdannie's connections to these Islamo fascist groups and Islamo communist groups,
asks Mamdani, Well, you know you've routinely called him Hitler,
You've routinely called Trump a Nazi. You said just a

(21:37):
few days ago, just two days before you came to
the Oval office, that Trump is a fascist, a dictator,
and a despot, and that if he wants to get
to the people of New York City, he's going to
have to go through you. What do you say now,
are you going to retract those words? And Trump comes

(22:00):
to mom Donnie's rescue Roll cut thirteen, Mike.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Clarifying.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
Your answer is to Stephen Nelson, he asked about your comment, calm,
president a fascist and your answer was, but.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Prsent Trump and.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
I have can clear bet our positions.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
In our views.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
Are you affirming that you think President Trump's a fascist?

Speaker 1 (22:24):
I've spoken about that.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
Okay, okay, that's easier.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
It's easier than explaining.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
It, petal.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
But so, and then you know he's grabbing him by
the arm. Trump is and says, just say it, come
a hand, just say it. I've been called worse, Just
say it. And so do you see man Donnie with
that snake oil smile of his, you know, that little
greasy smile of his, and he's just nodding his head

(22:51):
up and down like yeah, he's still a fascist.

Speaker 3 (22:54):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
By the way, if there was any doubt I'll play
the cut later in the show because I want to
go to the phones. But he goes on NBC's Meet
the mess Okay, meet the Press, and you know, Kirsten
Welker asks some point blank, you know, after your meeting,
did you meet with Hitler? Is it still a you know,
did you meet with a fascist?

Speaker 3 (23:16):
Oh yeah?

Speaker 1 (23:17):
Oh yeah. Trump's an absolute fascist. Oh yeah. So if
the point of this was to be a charm offensive,
I don't think he charmed Mamdanni at least Mmdannie's not
talking like he was charmed. They're still gonna hate Trump
just as much. That's not going to change. He came

(23:40):
out yesterday and said that New York under him will
still be a sanctuary city, in fact, a radical sanctuary city.
Ice will not be welcome in New York City, and
that he will oppose and fight Trump tooth and nail.
So my question is, if we're playing three D chess,
what did you Trump get? I'm being serious, really I'd

(24:03):
like to know, I really would. What did Trump get
out of that meeting? I know what Mam Donnie got.
Mam Donnie got everything. Mam Donnie got the President's Seal
of approval, Mam Donnie basically got Trump to reverse everything
he had said prior to that meeting. He got this

(24:24):
was a form of appeasement, whether Trump knows it or not.
And and by the way, this has been tried with
islamis now for I don't know how many decades. Be
nice to them, coddle them, appease them, embrace them. They can,
you can mold them, you can change them, you can

(24:46):
soften them. And all you end up doing is you
let the snake into your house, and the snake will
bite and bite and bite and bite. And mem I'm sorry,
I disagree with Trump. He's not gonna surprise conservatives. He's
certainly not gonna surprise me. He is gonna run that

(25:09):
city into the ground. And then what's Trump gonna say,
I told you so well, No, you met him in
the Oval office. You told us he was gonna be
a great mayor. Hell, you told us he was gonna
be the greatest mayor of all time. So what you've
now done is, in some ways you've tethered yourself to
this man. Because remember, Mom, Donnie never praised Trump once

(25:36):
in that meeting. He never once approved of anything Trump did.
All of the praise, all of the you know, the gushing,
you know lines, and and oh, he's a great campaigner,
he's a great politician, he's got great ideas, he's a
great visionary. He's gonna be a great mayor. That was

(25:58):
all coming from Trump. So look, and I think this
is something so foreign to the American mind. We don't
think like this. It's not Western, it's Eastern. It's something
that's medieval. It's just not how we think. But the

(26:19):
notion of takia, which is deeply ingrained in the Muslim
mind and in Muslim culture. You go to someone who
is an infidel, who's not a Muslim, and who's your
mortal enemy, and you can say anything to them. It's
all okay. In fact, it's even encouraged. So lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie,

(26:45):
And I bet you for forty five minutes, this guy
told Trump everything he wanted to hear. But don't listen
to what he says. Look at what Mamdani does and
what he's doing is going to be a disaster for
New York. Honest to god, I feel like Winston Churchill today.

(27:08):
I'm being serious, and I'm not saying I'm a great
man like Churchill, I'm not saying I'm his statue. I'm
saying I'm using the analogy. I feel like this was
a domestic version of Munich. You met the Islamo communist
and you gave him a pass. You gave him the

(27:28):
legitimacy that he craved and required. That's what he wanted
from that meeting, and he got it. Trump even said
at the meeting, Yeah, I'm not gonna pull federal funding. Nah,
let's forget about it. Are you gonna send into National Guard?
Probably not. He wants safe streets nah. So he gave

(27:51):
away the store ala Munich. What did he get in return?
And remember Hitler charmed the pants off of Chamberlain, and
my fear is, rather than charming Mam Donnie, I think
it's Mumdanni that may have charmed Trump. Just my honest opinion, agree, disagree.

(28:17):
I certainly welcome all views. You know that, in fact,
I really would like to be wrong about this, but
I'm just giving you my honest feedback and opinion. You
can text the cooner man seven zero four seven zero
seven zero four seven zero. This is what some of
you are saying. This is from six one seven Jeff

(28:40):
to calm your worries about the Trump Mumdonni meeting recalled
the Council of don veto Corleone in The Godfather, the
famous movie to his son Michael, always remember this, keep
your friends close, but keep your enemies closer. Okay, the audience,

(29:04):
as far as I can tell, and this is just
anecdotal because we don't have a we have a pole
question up, but it has to do with Marjorie Taylor
Green and I'm going to get to her later in
the show, I promise. But uh so, there's not a
formal poll question. But I'm just going out by the
text messages, the emails, the messages that we've been getting
on messenger. I would say Cooner Country is fifty to

(29:27):
fifty split right down the middle. There are those like
one of the Texters I read on the air that
this is keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.
Here's another one seven eight to one. Jeff, you're misreading
what happened in the Oval Office. Trump played mum Donnie

(29:49):
like a fiddle. Now Mumdnnie can't say when things go
sour in New York City under his leadership that Trump
is to blame in any way, shape or form because
Trump offered him all the help in the world. That's interesting,
that's interesting. So half of you feel like, no, no, no,

(30:13):
Trump was playing him, And now Mom Donnie can't use
Trump as a foil because Trump's like, look, whatever you need,
I'll give you. Oh, you're a great guy. You're a
great guy.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
I like you. You know.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Hey, no, no, let's get affordability, let's get all those
prices down. Whatever you need, the mayor of New York,
I'm gonna give to you. So now it's kind of
hard for Mom Donnie to say, well, things are bad
in New York because of Trump and make Trump public
enemy number one and use him as a scapegoat. So
I get it. That's that's fifty percent of the audience.

(30:46):
The other fifty percent is this, and frankly, this is
what I'm worried about. And the reason why is a
these feelings are deeply felt, number one. It's truly from
the heart. And I'm starting to get worried that many
of these these are diehard Trump supporters. They may not

(31:06):
vote in the midterms because they're becoming disillusioned. So I
get the fifty percent that think Trump, you know, played
Mamdannie but this is the other fifty percent, and I
want to read to you just one. I can read many,
and I want to take calls. But this is from
Mary Anne in Florida. Jeff, I am tired of hearing

(31:28):
quote unquote, trust the process, read the art of the deal.
He's playing three D chs. He's got Mam Donnie right
where he wants him. I'm sorry, I am so disappointed
in President Trump. This term about so many things. Is
he doing some good things, yes, of course he is,

(31:51):
but he's not the same president he was during his
first term. This meeting with that communist is long, honest fascist.
Pos doesn't show me America first. I'm sorry, I am
so disappointed. And remember this, we really don't know what

(32:14):
went on in that meeting because a lot of it
was behind closed doors. And then she goes on to say, quote,
people need to open their eyes and see and understand
that Donald Trump is not perfect. He never was, he
never will be. There is only one perfect man, and

(32:36):
he died for us on the cross. I am tired
of people making Trump out to be God. I like Trump,
don't get me wrong, but what I'm seeing during this
second term of his is very disappointing. So are you
disappointed in Trump's performance and in the meeting with Momdanna?

(33:01):
Or do you think he played him like a fiddle?
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
I want to hear from you, Kooner, country lines are loaded.
Who do you want me to go to first? Mike
Robert in Kago, Robert in Chicago. Thanks for holding and welcome.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
Thank you, Jeff, I love you in a non sexual way.

Speaker 1 (33:34):
Thank you, Robert. I thought you were going to be
mad at me because I was criticizing Trump's meeting, But
go ahead, Robert.

Speaker 3 (33:45):
I'm the one who used to call you from Anchorage.
I have now relocated to warm, sunny Chicago for the winter,
and I wanted to address Mandami and my knowledge of him.

(34:11):
A lot of the things that you had been saying
about him being communists and leftists and stuff like that,
I can believe that, and I have to confess I
actually know very very little about him. There was a

(34:31):
podcast that he put out that has been taken off
of YouTube, and I was very disturbed by this because
in his podcast he went and was saying, Okay, I'm
now newly elected, and I wanted you what's best for

(34:53):
the people of New York. I am a what did
he say?

Speaker 4 (34:58):
It was?

Speaker 3 (34:59):
I I am a democratic socialist, I am a Muslim.
I am very devout to being a Muslim. But my
main thing is I'm there for the people of New York.
I have spoken with people of New York in different boroughs,

(35:21):
and I am wanting to do what the people of
New York want. Then he went on saying, the United
States spends billions or trillions of dollars on war mongering
throughout the world in different places, and if we have

(35:45):
so much money to spend on defense, why can't we
use some of that money to help the people of
the New York City. And then he used some of
the just that that reporter that everyone hates, the one

(36:09):
who got kicked off the networks and is now has
his own his own way of giving information out. Anyways,
what ended up happening is he used those gestures like
where he would say, the United States spends billions of dollars. Huh,

(36:35):
think about that, A billion dollars spent on military and
there isn't enough money for people in a big city.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
Anyways, then he went on saying that people in one
of his burrows were from Venezuela and they were saying,
they are afraid that you United States is going to
invade Venezuela and go and murder thousands of innocent venez Zola.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Yeah, no, no, I know what you're talking about, Robert.

Speaker 4 (37:10):
No.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
Look, this is the thing. He's acting like he's the
co president. He's going on about Israel, he's going about
a gaza, he's going on about Ukraine. He's going about
whether we should invade or not invade Venezuela. That's not
his purview. He's the mayor of New York City. He's

(37:32):
the mayor of the five boroughs of New York City.
That's it. That's all. Hell. He's not even the governor
of New York. Like, I don't know who this punk
thinks he is. So that's already the first problem. The
second problem is they've been spending money hand over fist
in New York. See this is the problem.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
Now.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
I think Trump is going to eat those words with
all due respect, because the problem in New York is
that they've been following leftist policies. Like everybody forgets Bill
the Blasio. Bill de Blasio was an open admirer of
the communist Sandinistas. Bill de Blasio was a borderline communist. Now,

(38:15):
he was a bit smarter, a bit shrewder than Mamdanni
and didn't say hey, I'm gonna call me the way
Mamdannie has. But you know, he's the one that pushed
many of the policies that have made New York City unlivable, unaffordable,
not safe, dangerous, and turning it into basically a sanctuary city.

(38:38):
This is all under big Bird build a Blasio and
of course Kathy Hokel and Andrew Cuomo. So you know,
you get more of the same, You're gonna get the same,
but worse. That's what's gonna happen with Mamdani. They've been
doing rent control in New York City forever. He's just
gonna do more of it. They've been soft on crime

(39:01):
for two decades. He's just gonna do more of it.
They've been embracing Black Lives Matter now for what is it,
five six years, He's gonna do more of it. So
what I'm saying is things are not going to get better.
Things are gonna get infinitely worse. Now to me, and
this is just me. Now, maybe that's why I'm not president.

(39:23):
Maybe that's why I'm not a multi billionaire. I'm being serious.
Maybe I just don't have that kind of a cunning
enough mind. But to me, when you see an Islamo
communist like Momdani, you give him the back of your hand,
you call him out, the way Churchill called Hitler out.

(39:47):
I'm sorry, that's the only way to deal with people,
the way Reagan called the Soviet communists out. You say, listen,
this is not gonna work. This guy is going to
be a disaster. And when the disaster happens, remember I
warned you, and I told you so, and there's nothing
else to say. And I'm not going to be complicit

(40:09):
in this man's regime in any way, shape or form.
And in fact, I would have told him right there
on the spot, because one of the questions was, did
you guys discuss when you know what's going to happen
when Mamdanie arrests Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel. Now,
I want to be clear, it doesn't matter what you
think about Yahoo or his policies, whether you're for him

(40:33):
or against him. The Mayor of New York has no
constitutional jurisdiction to arrest any foreign leader. I'm not just
talking to Prime Minister of Israel, any foreign leader. He
doesn't have that power. Now, I'm telling you, if he's
sitting right beside me, two feet away from me, by

(40:55):
the way, I'd never let him stand, and I certainly
wouldn't let him stand over my shoulder like he's looking
over me and down on me. That I would never allow,
I'm telling you right now. Okay, but that's me. You'd
be sitting down like Trump does with other leaders. They
sit what is it, two or three feet four feet
away from him. Okay, he'd be sitting down, and I'd

(41:18):
say listen, Zoron, just so that you know you arrest
Netanyahu or anybody else as a foreign leader, I'm going
to arrest you right on the spot. Do you understand that? Like,
just that's it. I want you to know. I'm not
playing games now. You can flop your mouth for your
radical left wing mob that puts you into power, but

(41:42):
we're not on a campaign trail anymore. This is the
United States of America. You don't play around with foreign countries,
foreign leaders, foreign alliances. Robert, I'll be honest with you.
I would have taken a completely different tack than what
Trump did. And now we're going to see what it is.

(42:04):
I mean, the fallout already, to be honest, is very
good for Mamdani, not so good for Trump, you know,
And I understand he has a lot of defenders on
this issue. But what I'm worried about is he's got
a lot of people now who are starting to feel
people who love him, people who voted for him three times,

(42:25):
people who are die hard Trumpers, and they're starting to
get demoralized and disillusioned. And if I'm Trump, I'd start
paying attention because it's not just the Mumdanni thing. They're
not happy with multiple things. Six one seven two six

(42:46):
six sixty eight, sixty eight. Just my opinion. Take it
for what it's worth. Heather and Wareham. Thanks for holding Heather,
and welcome.

Speaker 4 (42:57):
To take my call.

Speaker 3 (42:58):
Probably you.

Speaker 4 (43:01):
I'm good.

Speaker 3 (43:03):
You know.

Speaker 4 (43:03):
When I first I when I watched that on Friday,
I think it was, yeah, it was Friday when he
had that meeting, I was shocked at my what I
was actually watching, and I was like, I can't believe
Trump is meeting with him, and like the way the
meeting was and how like Joe, you know, how like

(43:24):
they got along and everything. And you know, after I
watched it, I was pondering it, and the only thing
I could come up with is that this has to
be like a chess play for Trump, because like, I
don't want to believe that like this is a mistake.
I mean, I think it kind of was, but I

(43:46):
also want to believe that maybe this is how Trump. Like,
I think part of Trump's success, I guess is what
I'm saying is like his ability to meet you know,
like he meets with other you know, people from different
countries and gets along with like, you know, the guy
whatever the hell his name is in China, China, Yeah,

(44:10):
thank you, thank you. I had a brain brain the
left thought, yeah, like things like that, like like I
can't stand that guy, Like I would never meet Like
that's me. I would never like meet with somebody that
I can't stand. But I think that's one of Trump's strengths,
that he can kind of look past differences and get

(44:33):
to certain issues. And I also think I think one
of your texters said earlier, the one you read one
of the texts that said that now, and I think
that text made a really good point that now Trump,
now what's his name, man, DOMI can't blame Trump for
when he fails.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
And you know, well yeah, And the other thing that
many many are saying on the text line, which I
think is also a very good point and a valid
and interesting point, is by elevating Mamdanni so high. And
that was another thing that shocked people, right, he's going
to be a great mayor, maybe the greatest mayor that
New York City's ever had. Is by elevating him so high.

(45:17):
You know, they say, the higher you go, the farther
you fall. In other words, he's now setting expectations for
Mamdani to be so high almost unrealistic really, you know,
think about it. You know New York has had some
great mayors. New York is a great city historically, and
they've had some outstanding mayors. So you know, by saying

(45:39):
he's going to be the maybe the greatest ever, so
he's setting expectations so high. It's like saying, you know,
this guy is not just a great Olympian, He's going
to win five gold medals. What what Yeah, I mean
maybe the most medals anyone's ever won at the Olympics.

(46:00):
So even if the guy ends up winning one or
two gold medals, You're like, well, he didn't win five,
see what I mean. So he's setting expectations so high
that when Mamdani crashes and burns, it's going to be
even that much worse. See, that's what many people are saying. Look,
I understand that, I get it. I do, And I

(46:23):
also understand what you're saying. This is what some people,
actually my family are telling me. Well, look, he's very
cordial to Putin, He's cordial to Jijinping, he's cordial to
Kim Jong un, he's cordial.

Speaker 4 (46:35):
To you know.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
In other words, look, this guy is met with mass murderers, dictator,
true dictators than mass murderers, and he'll try to find
areas of agreement and commonality, common ground, and you know,
try to get something positive out of it. I understand.
But we're not talking about shaking hands, talking about affordability,

(47:00):
the lowering rants, building more houses, lowering grocery stores. We're
talking he's not agy hottist. He's got some very good ideas.
I would live in New York. In other words, you're
deliberately papering over some very fundamental issues. I don't want

(47:27):
to live under the Muslim brotherhood. I don't. I don't
want to live under an anti Semite. I don't. I
don't want to live under an Islamo communist. I don't
like to be honest, the question that I would have
asked Trump if I'm a reporter, well, what good ideas

(47:48):
does he have? Okay, but could you just name me
a couple? I mean, what's good? There's nothing good? And
you know, again, I'm going to take a lot of
heat for this, but to me, look, having battled communism
my entire life, the one thing you don't do is

(48:13):
give communists the rope to hang you with, because they
want to hang you. And so when you allow him
into the Oval office and you give him the imprimiture
of the presidency of the United States, where now even
Trump is saying, this guy could be it, this guy

(48:33):
could be one of the greatest ever, and he's got
a lot of good ideas. You've given this man a
legitimacy that he doesn't deserve and he hasn't earned. And
I'm telling you that is very dangerous. That is extremely dangerous.
I don't want Mamdani to succeed, and I'll tell you why,

(49:00):
because I've seen communism and socialism and action again and
again and it always leads to disaster and ruin everywhere.
So no, I don't want him to succeed because if
he succeeds, New York City will die. Now, up until
that meeting on Friday, and this is just my honest opinion,

(49:23):
Trump was on the right side of history. Trump said,
don't vote for him. Trump opposed him, Trump criticized him.
In fact, everything Trump said was a thousand percent correct.
All he would have to say is I told you so,
I told you so, I told you so. But now
he's negated everything that he said because of the way

(49:48):
he gushed all over Mandani and gave him his, as
I said, his stamp of approval. Now, the question, this
is why people are shocked. So, mister president, were you
lying for those several months before when you were saying
what an evil monster Maum Donnie was, or were you

(50:08):
lying at the White House meeting? It can't be both.
So now Trump for the first time comes across as
disingenuous and dishonest, and both of them together, this is
the part I found most disgusting. Come on, say it,

(50:28):
Say I'm a fascist. Say it just say it, ha
ha ha, And so Mam Donnie says it and everybody's laughing.
What is this some kind of a game calling somebody
a Nazi, a fascist, a dictator, a despot. What is
this like? It's just a game. In other words, what
Trump is basically exposing is they don't even believe their

(50:51):
own bs. But the problem is Thomas Crooks did, and
that shoot in Florida the golf course did, and millions
of people crazy left, leftists and liberals they believe it.
So calling Trump a fascist nearly got the president killed,

(51:14):
not once, but twice.
