The Fall of the Democrats

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I don't look for anybody else's names, but every college football
game I've gone to or watched on television, at some
point mister Bright's side is played and there is a
singleong in the entire stadium. It's it's a very strange
thing that's happened over the past few years. Six one
seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Six one
seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the

(00:21):
number here. This is Sandy Shack sitting in for Jeff Cooner,
who is on a road trip with his son, and
we'll be back today. He'll be back on the air tomorrow.
The text number seven zero four seven. I'm sorry, seven
zero four seven zero. The text line on the text
line is six one seven, who says Sandy. President Trump
bargains from a position of power. Countries want to do

(00:44):
business with the US, and the President negotiates from that position.
Other administrations have not used that leverage, instead selling out
union workers, innovators, and blue collar workers with lopsided tariffs
and regulations. The reduction of regulations and fair trade policies
will help the US economy. I completely agree with that.

(01:05):
That is exactly what I think is happening, and the
Democrats are fit to be tied over it. They are
panicking because they see their policies going up in smoke,
because their policies created economic misery, and President Trump's economic
policies are restoring a balance and a sense of consumer

(01:27):
confidence and a sense of hope for the future in
the country. And as the Democrats panic, they start to
become desperate and exhibit, in my opinion, pretty bizarre behavior,
desperate behavior. And this was recently most apparent over the weekend.
I don't know if anybody you know, it was a

(01:47):
beautiful weekend. You might have gone and done something fun
as opposed to watching the news. But on Saturday, after
hours of negotiations in the US Senate over the confirmation
of President Trump's nominees, the whole thing collapsed following a
decision by President Trump to end the talks after what

(02:09):
he called an egregious demand from Yes, you guessed it,
Senate Minority leader Chuckle Schumer. In a post on True
Social President Trump accused Schumer of attempting to extort over
one billion dollars in exchange for allowing a vote on
a very small number of nominees who had already received

(02:29):
bipartisan committee support. This is what the President posted. This
demand is egregious and unprecedented and would be embarrassing to
the Republican Party if it were accepted. It is political
extortion by any other name. Let me just turn the page.
I have it on two different pages.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
There.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Tell Schumer, who is under tremendous political pressures from within
his own party, the radical left lunatics, to go to
hell in all caps. He then instructed Republican lawmakers to
reject the offer outright. He says, do not accept the offer.
Go home and explain to your constituents what bad people

(03:11):
the Democrats are, and what a great job the Republicans
are doing and have done for our country. Have a
great recess, and make America great again, is what he writes.
So you know, that was the president and then Chuck Schumer.
Despite the failure of the negotiations, he tried to characterize
it the outcome as a win for Democrats, and he
had a little press conference standing besides a poster sized

(03:33):
image of President Trump's post and accuse the President of
walking away from the policy. But you know, I'm not
sure that that's the case. The Senate Democrats were seeking
to unfreeze billions in funding for the National Institute of Health, yes,

(03:54):
the people that brought you COVID and foreign aid programs
such as you said, and to secure or commitment from
the White House not to propose further clawbacks. In other words,
they were trying to gut a lot of the swamp
cleaning that President Trump had done, and in return they
would support the confirmation of these very non controversial nominees

(04:16):
that were that were up for you know, up for
the vote. So that's what happens. So my question is
in regard to this, I mean, he we walked away
from the negotiations, but was that actually a win for
President Trump if you think about it, because he didn't
cave to what was going on. You know, this was

(04:39):
unprecedented by the Democrats refusing to confirm any of Trump's
nominees by vote, voice vote, or unanimous consent. By comparison,
Joe Biden had fifty seven percent of his nominees passed
through those processes. But in this particular case, you know,
Chuck Schumer absolutely refused. So did Trump do the right

(05:00):
thing here walking away from negotiations? And even though he
did not get his nominees path through it. Was this
a win for Trump not caving to extortion from Chuck Schumer?
Is this another win? Bob in Raynham, Welcome to w
r KO. How are you, Bob.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
Station Andy Good? How are you doing?

Speaker 1 (05:19):
I'm doing fine, sir. So what do you think? Was
this another win? Did Trump do the right thing walking away?

Speaker 4 (05:25):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (05:25):
Definitely, you know this is this is you know they
have to end you. You wash my bank back, I'll
wash youaws. That's that's a big problem why we're in
the mess for in even if they're not taking envelopes,
they're compromising their positions and everything else, you know, based

(05:50):
on that philosophy. But I'd like to go back to
the immigration issue and then you know President Trump's first
seventy days or whatever.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
It is.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
First of all, to me when I wake up every
morning now instead of in the past four years, when
I'm like, I'd wake up and I'd hear something and
I'd be like, I can't believe this is happening. I
can't believe this is happening. I can't believe this is happenings.
Whereas now it's so refreshing to have a president whatever

(06:28):
you think of him personally that truly does want to
make America great again, and as an American, how can
anyone be opposed to that philosophy? I mean, I would
think any ruler of any country wants their country to
be as best as they can be. You know, any
CEO of any company, why would you ever, especially as

(06:51):
the United States of America deal from an I.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Got to hold you there, right there, Bob, hang on
and we'll come back to you on the other side
of the break. We're up against a hard break six
one seven two sixty six sixty eight sixty eight. Six
one seven two sixty six sixty eight sixty eight. We
were talking about President Trump's policies that are putting America first.
Before we went to the break. We were talking with
Bob and Raynham and have these policies resulted in wins

(07:21):
for all of us? Bob, I'm sorry that we were interrupted.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
Go right ahead, Bay, Sandy, and I'd like to continue
with the immigration issue. Actually, I wish everyone would stop
referring to it as an immigration issue because it has
nothing to do with immigration. It was an invasion perpetrated

(07:44):
by traders, and if this were to continue, the history
of America would have been lost in all the great
men and women who have proceeded us and who have
given the ultimate sacrifice would have all died in vain

(08:05):
because of these traders that have allowed this invasion in
like fifty years. All these people, if they're allowed to
stay and continue to come, will trend as Obama wish,
will fundamentally change America and there will be no link
to our past. And you know, we're going to become

(08:29):
just part of the new world order and just another place.
And we have to look long, long term and actually
be selfish in guiding our country, which is our country.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
I agree with that, Bob, I completely agree with that.
I mean, I, like you and many other people, I
feel compassion for people who need our help. I don't.
I don't see where you can be a caring human
being and not care what happens to other people. But
you have to be in a position to help other people,

(09:07):
and you have to do it in an orderly fashion.
And so you help your own people, you get your
own economy running, and then you do what you can
for others. And what happened under Biden administration, which actually
was really started under the Obama administration, because let's not
forget Clinton was all for closing the border and deportations

(09:27):
as well. Is that you know, they wanted to bring
people in in a helter skelter fashion because it was
a means of taking over the country. It was a
means of taking our tax dollars. It was a means
of basically communism. And that's what the whole our new
world order is, I guess the more appropriate way to

(09:48):
put it these days, that's that's what was happening. And
I think that's what you're alluding to, and I agree
with that. And so the first step in getting a
hold on things is what a Trump is done, which
has closed the border, deport those who are here illegally,
especially the criminals, and then maybe some of the other
people who have here who are here illegally, maybe you

(10:09):
find a way to bring if they have no criminal record,
maybe you find a way to bring them into the
system so that they can work towards citizenship or a
green card or whatever legitimization that you want to do.
I think that you can do that, and I think
he's doing it. I think that's right for everybody. And
when we are up and ticking and we are solid
and we've taken care of our own people. Our vets

(10:32):
are homeless, the people who who lived here, who may
be worked and fell in hard times, but who are Americans.
Then you can start looking on what can we do
to help in another country. But I think that that
we have to start with our own people first. And
I don't think that's cruel or lacking empathy, do you, Bob?

Speaker 5 (10:52):
No?

Speaker 3 (10:52):
I don't you know the old saying charity begins at
home and you have to take care of your own
Fris Rush. Yeah, absolutely, I.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Agree with that. Thank you so much for the call, Bob.
I appreciate it. The number is six one seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight. When you hear a
call drop off, it means that there is a line
that has opened up for you. The ones who do
not appear appreciative of uh the President's wins are the Democrats,
and they seem to be getting crazier and crazier every day,

(11:27):
and so much so that I am concerned that they
will self destruct, basically go and you know, become extinct.
And I've made that excuse me the pole question today,
which you can take at WRKO slash Cooner Report. It's
also on Jeff's handle on x which is at the

(11:47):
Kooner Report. And the question, and it's brought to you
before I forget by Mario's quality roofing, siding and windows.
Thank you, Marios. And the question is is the Democratic
Party looking at extinction? That's because I think they are.
I think they are looney tuning their way into a
position where nobody trusts them, nobody believes them, and they'll

(12:10):
have absolutely no influence and not be able to win
any more elections. Some people say that's a good thing.
I think the current incarnation of the Democratic Party, that
would be a good thing. But I think we need
two parties in order to have a healthy political system. Currently,
seventy one percent think that the Democratic Party is heading

(12:31):
to extinction. Those are scary numbers, don't you think. Twenty
nine percent still have faith that they can pull it out,
but I'm not sure that they can. To be honest
with you, it's not just up on Capitol Hill that
you see the looney Tunes stuff, the bad behavior, the
crazy thinking that they are, And I think what they

(12:55):
believe is that they are actually convincing you that President
Trump is the bad Orange Man and is incapable of
doing anything positive for the country. And what their premises
is that you need to follow them and take everything
they say as gospel truth, no matter how bizarre or
how it odds with the facts those statements may be.

(13:18):
And for instance, last week, the progressive left tried to
convince you that American eagle gens were the chosen genes
of white supremacists in this country, for the fact that
they hired a blonde, blue eyed model named actress model

(13:39):
named Sidney Sweeney to sell their wares to sell this genes,
and she did this ad. I'm going to play the
ad for you. Cut number one, be please, Mike.

Speaker 4 (13:51):
Chans are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining
traits like her color, personality, and even eye color.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
My jeans are.

Speaker 6 (14:02):
Blue, Sidney Sweeney Hasbury Keynes.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Okay, I'll be honest with you. I thought it was funny.
I thought it was a funny ad. American Eagle, by
the way, sold out the jeans. You know, I think
I think they're laughing all the way to the bank
at the progressive Left, which are screeching from the rooftop
about how this is a dog whistle for racism and
how she's obviously a white supremacist. I think J. D

(14:28):
Vance actually explained it pretty well. He was he was
on the Ruthless podcast and he was basically mock Democrats
over calling Sidney Sweeney a Nazi. Cut one oh five, please.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
Mike, Sidney Sweeney represents like a Nazi white supremacy issue.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
Do you think it's that deep?

Speaker 5 (14:50):
And do you think attacking Sydney Sweeney is how they
can win back young man?

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Is that a good move?

Speaker 4 (14:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (14:56):
My political advice to the Democrats is continue to tell
a everybody who thinks Sidney Sweeney is attractive is a Nazi.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
That appears to be their actual strategy.

Speaker 7 (15:05):
And I mean it actually reveals something pretty interesting about
the Dems, though, which is that you have like a normal,
all American beautiful girl during doing like a normal genes ad. Right,
they're trying to sell, you know, sell jeans to kids
in America and they have managed to so unhinge themselves
over this thing. And it's like, you, guys, did you

(15:26):
learn nothing from the November twenty twenty four election. Like
I actually thought that one of the lessons they might
take is we're going to be less crazy. The lesson
they have apparently taken is we're going to attack people
as Nazis for thinking Sidney Sweeney is beautiful.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
Great strategy, guys, that's how you're going to learn the
mid terms. Yeah, I mean, it was an unhinged thing
to do, yet they still did it. At here's what
happens when you do things like that. The Democratic Party's
image has eroded to its lowest point in more than
three decades. That is, according to a new Wall Street

(16:02):
Journal poll, with voters seeing Republicans as better at handling
most issues that decide elections. I think I was just
looking at the survey this morning. It finds it sixty
three percent of voters hold an unfavorable view of the
Democratic Party. That's the highest share that the Wall Street
Journal has found dating back to nineteen ninety and it's

(16:26):
thirty percentage point higher than the thirty three percent who
hold aable a favorable view. They're thirty percent underwater. That
is a far weaker assessment than voters give to either
President Trump or the Republican Party. That's it's just they're
just like Democrats are nuts, and they've been hoping they

(16:49):
meaning the Democrats have been hoping that a voter backlash
against the president will be powerful enough to restore their
majority in the House in the midterms and in the
midterms coming up, much as it did during President Trump's
first term. But this Journal poll shows that the party

(17:10):
hasn't done what they needed, hasn't gotten that first step
in that plan, which is persuading voters that they can
do a better job than President Trump. Seven to eighty
one says, I was so happy to hear your voice
this morning. Thank you. That's really kind. I appreciate that
I live in a very nice town north of Boston.
During the four years of Joe Biden's reign, of terror, crime,

(17:34):
including gunfire in front of my house, got so bad
I bought a police scanner just to keep abreast of
what was happening. It would be going off constantly, and
I mean constantly, twenty four hours a day, quite often
hearing the words language barrier in the calls. Now that
President Trump has gotten into the office, the scanner is
so much calm or often silent for long periods of

(17:57):
time during the day and especially at night. Crime is down.
This alone tells how much things have changed. Things are
definitely getting better even after only a few months. Keep
up the good work. Thank you, thank you so much
on behalf of President Trump. I'm saying thank you, I
think that, and for making my point. I think that's

(18:18):
exactly right. Crime is down, the border is secure, the
economy is doing better. Yet Dems would have you believe,
in particular, in response to seven eight one's text, that
law enforcement and deporting criminal illegal aliens is a bad thing.
It's a bad thing. And because of that, my question

(18:39):
is are Democrats destroying themselves and these irrational responses to
President Trump's successes? I mean, it's don't you find it bizarre?
This week, as the House of Representatives started, you know,
its summer recess, and Dems, apparently, according to their internal

(19:01):
memos and their their pr things that they've sent out,
Democrats are planning to use the coming weeks to hold
town hall meetings, you know, in their districts, to make
the case against Trump's agenda and you know, making fun
of his norm breaking governing style. They're hoping for a

(19:23):
repeat of this past Springs recess when you had these
angry voters flooding into town hall meetings and heckling Republican
lawmakers and challenging them to do more to push back
against President Trump. But the thing about that is, first
of all, I'm not quite sure all those people, some
of those people weren't you know, for sale, weren't paid agitators.

(19:45):
But secondly, you know, is can this work? Can this
actually work? I'm not sure that this is something that
is going to be repeated, to be honest with you,
when you look at it, well, the anger and the

(20:07):
misinformation that the demos are putting out there cause a
repeat of the twenty eighteen midterms. That's what they're hoping
will happen when they do that. And what they want,
you know, what they're aiming for is a resurgence for
their party. Do you think that's going to work. Is
it going to be a resurgence or are they just
shooting themselves in the foot and hastening their own demise?

(20:32):
Are they actually looking at obliteration a you know, if
you watch any of these disaster movies in elie an
extinction level event, I don't think it's going to be
a resurgence, to be honest with you, because, firstly, the
political environment today looks a lot different than it did
in twenty eighteen. If you look back to just before

(20:55):
the twenty eighteen election, more voters than call themselves Democrats
than Republican. I think it was like a six percentage
point difference according to the Wall Street Journal polling, and
that Democratic tilt meant that many Republicans were running uphill
even you know, before they started. It kind of depends

(21:15):
on what the makeup of their house district was, but
you know, it was an uphill battle. Now this time,
more voters are identifying as Republicans and as Democrats. It's
a significant change in the structure of the electorate. Republicans
last year built a very durable lead, and I think

(21:36):
it was the first time they had in like three decades,
and they have maintained that lead. More voters now identify
as Republicans than as Democrats. It's just by a little bit,
by one percentage point, but that's a big deal. When
asked how they would vote if the election were held today,
more voters in their recent new journal Wall Street Journal

(21:58):
poll said they would back at Democrat for Congress over Republican.
I think forty six to forty three percent. And that's
a big change for the Democrats at this stage because
at this stage in the last election, in the twenty
eighteen election, the Democrat lead was like eight percentage points.
So this, to me is very hopeful that this Democratic

(22:20):
strategy is not working. I think it's going to really
backslide on them and not just not work in getting
people through, but I think what it's going to do
is cause a catastrophe for them. I think instead of
gaining people, they're going to lose people by the droves
and plus on top of that, add to the fact
that Republicans have built a financial advantage at this early

(22:44):
in the election cycle, because if you look at the
campaign finance reports that came out this past week, they
showed that the Republican National Committee ended the first half
of the year with more than eighty million dollars on hand,
and that's compared to the fifteen million that's held by
the Democrats National Campaign arm The Democrat Committee raised roughly

(23:04):
twenty percent less than it did in the first six
months of twenty twenty one, and that's a comparable period.
So that's basically why I have hope that they're not
going to win the election, but I think the it's
going to be more than just that. I think what
they're going to do is blow themselves up. What do
you think Jim and Kingsborough are the are the Democrats

(23:28):
looking at an Eli?

Speaker 4 (23:31):
Good morning?

Speaker 1 (23:32):
Good morning sir.

Speaker 4 (23:34):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (23:35):
I am fine? So what do you think of the
future of the Democrats? Oh?

Speaker 2 (23:39):
To get its history? I mean, I can't wait until
they're done. I mean, case in point, I've recently had
the misfortune of dealing with a company that's obviously run
by Democrats. I mean, I require a mobility through a
power wheelchair, and the one that I got, I've had
it for three months and fall on a pot. Ever

(24:01):
since they come to find out the company I'm dealing with,
they've they literally, uh, you know, uh destroyed the company. Oh.
I mean you know, we had a tech out here
at the house who obviously didn't know anything about it.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
He made a comment to my home health day, you know,
and I was like, you've gotta be kidding me, said,
they said, what I got to say, she's listening to
us as we talk now, said.

Speaker 3 (24:35):
We don't care.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
We're the only ones. Yeah, they got a high ballutant attitude,
you know, and they kind of left me hanging with
this thing.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
And so they can't fix it. Is that what you're saying.
So they came out and they really don't care if
they fix it or not. Is that that's what I'm
hearing from you.

Speaker 3 (24:54):
They don't even care to fix it trying?

Speaker 1 (24:57):
Would they could?

Speaker 3 (24:59):
They?

Speaker 1 (25:00):
Are they going to replace it for you?

Speaker 5 (25:02):
No?

Speaker 1 (25:03):
No?

Speaker 2 (25:04):
That In other words, the first question when I when
I made the deal with this guy, guy, I don't
know if I can just say the name of the company,
I don't want to do that on your show, But
that's okay. I won't tell you.

Speaker 1 (25:17):
No, I wouldn't do that yet because I I don't know.
You know, it's something we would do off the air,
not on the air. Yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
Jim be You know they're kind of like slapping the
handicapped in the fakes. Yeah, Oh gosh, it's like they're
just the worst, the worst company ever.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Well, why do you think they were run by Democrats?
What's what's making you what's making you think that?

Speaker 2 (25:46):
I'm like, you gotta be kidding. This is not the
way you talk to people. I mean, when they told
her with a with a with the greatest thing, what
they say.

Speaker 3 (25:53):
That, Oh, they don't care because they're.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
The only ones Yeah, they planning to the only company
out there. Like, I don't know how I ever got
mixed up with them. It was through a suggestion that
I went with them.

Speaker 7 (26:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
Yeah, yeah, they we even handicapped children without assistance.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
And it's all over the wet I mean, the whole
the whole thing on this company is on the wet now.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Yeah, And like I said, I'm gonna I'm going to
be on the phone, ringing the phones across the state,
you know, trying to get a complaint file through sort
of the bottom of justice in Massachusetts. Don't know if
it will carry any weight, but Jim, do.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Something for me when we hang up, don't hang up
the phone. Let Mike like pick up and get your
phone number off air, because I'd like to talk to
you about this. Okay, absolutely, okay, Wow, So well, I'm
so sorry that you're going through that that, Jim, I mean, seriously,
on a on a political level, do you think that

(26:59):
that attitude that you're talking about, which I can see
why it resonated with you of you know, do what
we say. We have complete control. Anybody who disagrees with us,
who cares? I mean, that's the kind of attitude that
I see from the Democratic Party, and that's the kind
of attitude that I think is destroying them. But maybe
that's just me.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Yeah, they shame the thickest thing, They're the greatest thing around.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Yeah, yeah, I know, I know. Well, Jimmy, hang on
for Mike. I appreciate the call. He'll he'll pick up
and get your phone number for me if you don't mind.
Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble
to call. Let's go to Tom in Brockton. Tom, Welcome
to w RKO. How are you, sir?

Speaker 4 (27:44):
Doing okay? Sandy doing all right?

Speaker 1 (27:46):
So do you think that the Dems are destroying themselves?
Are we looking at an ell for them?

Speaker 4 (27:53):
I think they keep going further and further to the
left and further to some of the craziness. And you
know my history being a member of the building trades,
a member of a very good labor union. I'm sixty five,
but you know, in tw nineteen eighty eight, I went

(28:16):
as a delegate to the Democratic Convention out in Springfield, Massachusetts.
I also went to the Democratic Convention in nineteen eighty
nine at Walter Brown Arena at Northeastern University in Boston,
and that's when I started hearing that term progressive being
thrown around then, and I viewed a lot of those
people back then as just malcontents. And what I remember

(28:40):
as a Democrat as a young man in my twenties
in thirties is to strive for middle class status, and
the big part of that was single family home ownership.
And that goal now for a young person, especially in

(29:01):
a state like Massachusetts, it's pretty much unattainable. I mean,
even if you're making one hundred grand a year, how
the hell are you going to be able to afford
a six hundred thousand dollars mortgage? And where are you
going to come up with three percent down, you know,
for even a mortgage when you're going to have to
have PMI insurance? And I just don't see this. I

(29:25):
really think what they're trying to do is they're trying
to make this country into Western Europe, of where you
live in apartment buildings, you don't own land, And as
Klaus Schwab once famously said, in the future, you will
own nothing and you will be happy, and you will

(29:48):
live in fifteen minute cities. And I'm sorry, you know,
we're not Singapore. I understand why Singapore has certain, you know,
restrictions on automobiles because it's a small land land mass.
But what I see what has happened with England, France,
Germany and other parts of Western Europe with the massive

(30:09):
migration of people, basically from Africa and the Middle East.
It's not working. And to me, it's slow suicide. And
somebody will call in or whatever, or somebody's thinking right now, wow,
is this guy erasis? Maybe so I don't care anymore.

(30:30):
That word means nothing to me. But at some point
you have to realize this is not working, This is
not good for the future of the country. And it
all goes back to me with Obama and when he
famously said after being elected in two thousand and eight
to fundamentally change and transform America as we know it.

(30:55):
And I don't want to fundamentally change and transform America
as I know it. I want to go back to
the America of nineteen eighty seven, of where we enforced
our immigration laws. And the biggest mistake that President Reagan
ever did was he signed that amnesty bill. It should
have been that you will criminally go after employers that

(31:19):
hire illegals. You will not allow states to fund people
here that are unlawfully and what has happened, It's just
gotten worse. In Massachusetts. When I came back in laid
O two to work on the Big Dig, the state's
population was six point one million people. We're now pushing

(31:42):
seven point three million. Did we go through a baby boom?
No we did not. It's been through immigration. And you
wonder why on your Sunday afternoons and your Saturday afternoons
the major arteries are clogged in the state. Well, be
careful what you wish for, you might get it. And
I've had a chance to travel overseas and you get

(32:06):
a very different perspective when you go to a foreign
country and you're also told them that foreign country that
you're to obey their laws. If you don't, you're going
to get a knock in the middle of the night.
So I don't know, Sandy, but I love what Trump
is doing. And this nonsense about ICE agents are acting

(32:29):
like fascist. Well, what I say to highly educated white
liberals that I went to high school with on social media?
What is Antifa doing? And what are these protesters doing
wearing masks over their faces? Same thing ICE doing, hiding
their anonymity. But the difference is with Ice is that

(32:51):
you have people that openly want to give that information
to the cartels so they can take out their families
to intimidate them.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
That's true, that's exactly what they want to do. But
to your earlier point, I think that President Trump has
demonstrated that there is an option to this new world
order and that it's and his view is highly successful,
and that's what is causing this horrific response by the Democrats.

(33:24):
But what I'm seeing, I think, Tommy, is that the
more they fight against Trump, the worse they look. Because
what we're seeing is essentially the exact opposite of what
happened to the Biden administration. They promised transparency, never gave it.

(33:44):
Like a point I made to a caller earlier today,
you know we President Biden would go nine ten months
without speaking to anybody and any member of the press.
President Trump has a press gaggle in his office every day,
and if it's not his office, it's on the lawn,
and if it's not in law and it's on it's
on Marine one or it's on Air Force one. Every
single day we see the president. Maybe he takes the

(34:05):
day off to play golf, but you know, very rarely,
and so we have transparency. President Biden famously declared the
border is closed, well, really, because we've been inundated with
you know, tens of thousands of illegal immigrants. I think
it's more than that at this point. I think, you know,
it's millions of illegal immigrants at this point. So, but
Trump is the one that actually closed the border and

(34:27):
has put a deportation process in place. In regard to
the economy, you know, President Biden tried to sell us
on the fact that a GDP growth of two percent
or left or one and a half percent is the
new norm. Actually that was that was Obama's words, that
that was the new norm when they couldn't get when
when they put their economic policies into place and the

(34:50):
economy started to tank, they said, no, this is a
new normal. It'll never see above two percent again. We
just had a three percent search. So I think that
coming up against the f of failure of their policies
has instead of making them say, oh, maybe I was wrong,
some of them have done that, but not very many
have said oh maybe I was wrong. I need to

(35:11):
go back and rethink this. Instead, they say no, you
didn't see that. It doesn't exist. And I think that
they're destroying their credibility to the point where they can't recover.
What do you know, I think that's what's I think
that's what's happening. Thank you so much for the call, Tommy.
I appreciate it. Six one seven six six sixty eight

(35:32):
sixty eight is the number here if you want to
join us. When a caller drops off, a line has
opened up for you. Let's go to Ronnie in Boston. Ronnie,
welcome to WRKO. How are you.

Speaker 6 (35:44):
Hey, Good morning, Sandy. Wonderful to hear your voice today.
Thank you, Sam, You're most welcome. The Democrats have have
so many problems, you know, the fact that their policies
are super unpopular is is really easy, low hanging fruit.
But there's two other big reasons too. Number One, the
Democrat Party is a party of total cowards. Say whatever

(36:08):
you want about Republicans. They show up day in and
day out to take hostile interviews from a hostile press.
When's the last time you ever saw Liz Warren, Nancy Pelosi, AOC,
Chuck Schumer, you name the Democrat When do they ever
sit down with opposition media. They only sit down with

(36:29):
the friendliest, friendliest, friendliest of media. They never reach over
to the other side ever, and they will never ever
make a comeback until they learn how to do that.
When aoc can sit down with Sean Hannity, when Rashida
Tlaiv can sit down with Laura Ingram, you know, when
Pete Budha Jeedge can sit down with Mark Levin, you know,

(36:49):
maybe they have a chance. But the biggest problem of
all in my just my opinion, Sandy, but Democrats have
completely demonized and rejected traditional masculinity and traditional femininity. At
the look at the female leaders on the Democrat Party.
They are insufferable, undtable feminists. And you look at the men.

(37:13):
Who could you who who do you pick as a
you know, if I said, you know, name me a
strong masculine Democrat politician, I mean.

Speaker 4 (37:21):
Who do you pick?

Speaker 6 (37:22):
There's nobody. Their men are extremely weak, their women are
extremely insufferable, and the party as a whole has just
become a haven for violent revolutionaries and sexual deviance. That's
how they're seen by the country. Horrible America, worst policies,
globalists and sexual deviants that are made up by insufferable,

(37:46):
unfeminine women and unmasculine men, and until they learn how
to become a masculine party again, a feminine party again,
a party that embraces traditional family values to additional American values.
This party is light years away from that, and they
have nobody to bring them back to the center. I

(38:09):
think John Fetterman is the one, lone, you know, voice
of the desert, you know, of reason in that party.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
And when did you ever think we'd say that? When
did you ever think when he ran for office, when
he was still suffering damage from a stroke, and didn't
you know said at the beginning of his debate said,
you know, hello, goodbye everybody. It's like, what the whoever
thought that John Fittterman Fetterman would become the voice of
reason for the Democratic Because I agree with you he

(38:37):
is he is. He is actually somebody who thinks about
each issue and doesn't give a knee jerk response based
upon what the Democratic talking points are. He actually responds
the way he thinks.
