Speaker 1 (00:00):
This hour of programming on seven ten doubr He's sponsored
by Toyota City and Mamaranac and Nissan City of port Chester,
proud members of the Integrity Automotive Group. Now former Westchester
County Executive Rob Astarito on seven.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Ten, Well, here we go again, another Saturday afternoon. Rob
Astarino with you on seven ten wor big day yesterday
and Alaska of all places.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Of course, Trump and Putin meeting.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I don't even want to talk about that, you know what,
I don't even want to talk I want to talk
about joys because we've got a huge race coming up.
Of course, as you know, Jack Schitdarelli, our friend has
been on.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
He'll be on again.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
We'll do that like right after Labor Day this week
he was in Israel, and so many things happening right here,
the mam DOMI nuts, the crazies in New York City,
the mayoral race, polls come out, so many things. Plus
of course, you know, Trump federalizing DC.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Tom Holman's gonna come on a little bit later in
this show. We're gonna talk about ice and sanctuary in
New York all that nonsense. So stick around the next hour.
But first, you know, so Trump of course had to
break through the blue wall last year to win, and
he did, I mean, he swept, which was fantastic, And
now you can see the difference in the country. We're
obviously on the right direction. He's doing things nobody thought
(01:29):
was possible. But one of the reasons why he won Pennsylvania,
and one of the reasons why Chitarelli might win in
New Jersey is because finally, finally, and I was saying
this back when I was running in fourteen for governor,
you have all these keyboard warriors, you know, the NRA
folks and so many other people that love to scream
(01:50):
and yell online, but then they don't register and they
don't vote, and it doesn't matter, and then we lose.
So Scott Presler, who you've seen i'm sure on TV,
on Newsmax or other stations, he put together a great
plan called Early Vote Action, that's his pack. But he
actually said, let me go to fricking Pennsylvania and prove
how we can register Republicans and win. And he's now
doing that in Jersey, which is enormously.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Helpful for Chitdarelli. So Scott is with us right now
on seven to ten wl R.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Scott, how are you good afternoon? I am ready to
rock and roll.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
As you're up.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
So I want to go backwards. What made you decide
to you know, get your hands dirty, go out there
and try to do what really let's be honest. The
state parties, the county parties, you know, the RNC what
they should have been doing all along, and that is
putting an emphasis on registering Republicans and then getting them
(02:45):
out to vote.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Why did you start doing that?
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Thank you? I've been doing this now for a decade,
and I would like to thank and honor President Obama.
Now I'm serious. When he was reelected in twenty twelve,
I was a dog walker working at an elementary school,
and I saw our country going in the wrong direction,
and I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm only a voter. Yes,
(03:12):
I voted in the twenty twelve election for Mitt Romney,
but I didn't do anything else. I wasn't door knock king,
I wasn't registering voters. I wasn't helping to elect good
conservative officials in the office. And I went, no, Scott,
you are the problem. Stop looking to society to solve
your problems. The only way that we're going to do
(03:33):
something is by getting concerned citizens to come together, and
we're going to do it ourselves. And so in twenty fourteen,
I moved my life halfway across the country to Texas
to help elect Governor Greg Abbott into office. And it
really was through that job that I learned how to
become a community organizer. So you know, I guess I
(03:55):
can run for president now like president, and you.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Could also you could but also win a Nobel Peace
Prize just getting elected and doing nothing else exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
And I just I learned how to hone my craft
a voter registration, of making it fun, of organizing volunteers, recruiting,
knocking on doors in one hundred degree heat down there
in Texas. And this has just turned into a lifelong
mission of them going to defeat Hillary Clinton, electing Donald Trump,
focusing on the midterm elections, going through the twenty twenty election,
(04:28):
and now we have our redemption. Donald Trump has been
re elected as the forty seventh President of the United States,
and my organization, in part in part early voteaction dot Com,
we helped to deliver the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and so
I'm going to be around for the next forty years
doing this work rap and I hope to teach more
(04:48):
people how to register voters.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
You know, obviously it's enormously important. It drove me nuts
in my races because people they scream and shout, they
want to help, and then you realize they're not registered,
and then they don't want to one jury duty whatever.
That just it's so nonsensical and frustrating, and you know
how it is. And I always would say, look, if
we're going to the county fair, or if we're going
(05:14):
to this you know, NRA gathering, why the hell aren't
we bringing a stack full of voter registration forms and
then following up?
Speaker 3 (05:21):
So how how are you doing it?
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Well, let me give you some examples of why we're
so successful and how we do what we do. So
every Friday we're at the Green Dragon Farmers' Market in
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Lancaster is where we have the beautiful
Amish community, and we go to farmers' markets because people
shop local. They are Maha, they love that RFK Junior Vane.
(05:47):
We're targeting audiences because we already know they're likely to
be conservative going to gunshops, farmers' markets, fraternity houses, et cetera.
So this guy comes over to our cable and we
engage with everyone. Rob, you're a living, breathing human, you know,
American citizen. We're asking you if you're registered to vote.
(06:08):
And I'm talking to this young dad. I didn't know
he was a dad at the time, but I'm talking
to this young man and I'm like, are you registered?
He's like, I've never voted my whole life. And so
instantly I go into Purana mode. And that means that
I'm going I Am going to work tirelessly right then
and there and be as persuasive and cajole him as
(06:28):
I can to get him to register. And I said, listen,
I don't know what your story is. I don't know
if your dad you know, but we want to make
sure that we're not pushing these horrible things in our schools,
that we're creating a good economy so that you can
raise your family. Then get this Rob in the bathroom
far in the back. His wife comes out, a very
(06:50):
pregnant wife, and at that moment I had convinced him.
I shoved the clipboard over to him very nicely. But aggressively.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Do you pre bok pre check the Republican box or no.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
No, no, no, prechet We're honest that early vote action.
We're honest. Anyway, So the wife comes over and she
goes Finally he's finally registering to vote, and with this
very pregnant mom, I was just like, Wow, I hit
the nail on the head, didn't I that. I spoke
to him at that right moment, talking about the fact
that he is a dad, not even knowing, and I
(07:25):
was able to almost micro target and I just got
a plus one new Republican voter in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
And that's how we do it. This is peer to peer,
one on one, investing in people, pouring into people. That
is the magic.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
It's because he thought you were prettier than his wife.
You have long hair. That's why, right, my.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Hair was looking good that day. I'm not gonna lie
my hair.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
So you know, that's great, And it is such hard work,
one by one, day by day. But you know, I
remember I had in I think my first race for
county executive, I had the so called experts tell me
like Westchester. I don't know if you're familiar with but
(08:11):
like Malvernon. Let's say Malvernon is like eighty percent Democrat
African American. You know, Republicans go to die there. They
get like six percent of the vote no matter what
the race is. And I kept being told, don't go there.
They won't vote for you, and I'm like, well, well
of course they won't because I've never said.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Hello, you know.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
And I spent time in Malvernon and I ended up
getting thirty percent of the vote. That's and that was
the first returns that came in that night in two
thousand and nine, and I said, we won the race.
And it was like, had you I said, we got
thirty percent of Malvernon.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
There's no way we.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Can lose this, right, And we winded up, you know,
beating a Democrat in a two and a half to
one county of Democrats.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
We ended up blowing them out.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
But the point is, just like you're doing, if you
don't go there, if you don't engage people. And by
the way, just because somebody has blue hair doesn't necessarily
mean they won't vote with bubble ya, you know. And honestly,
and if you have that discussion and engagement, you cannot
lose if they're not going to vote for you, fine,
nothing ventured, nothing gained, but all of a sudden you
(09:15):
can get them right well.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
And to give you another example, it's fair season some
so glad you brought up fairs. We're at everything, the
Green County Fair, Fayette County Fair, Washington County Fair, Crawford
County Fair, Wayne County Fair. I was just there with
my team and on one single day in Wayne County,
which is a very rural county. It's actually right near
(09:40):
the conversience of New York and New Jersey where Pike
County is up there in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
So the Northern Pennsylvania, southern.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Northern Tier, YEP, Northeast Pennsylvania. We got fifty eight people
registered to vote in one day in Pennsylvania, and you
know what, the majority of them signed up for mail
in ballas otherwise as what we call emergency backup ballots
because we know where people are preppers. And think about it, Wayne,
do you think there are going to be more access
(10:10):
to voting locations and voting options in a rural county
or fewer options versus Alleghany, Silly or New York City.
And so really, if we don't push alternatives to voting
and only vote on election day. You know, it could
snow up there in the mountains in northeast Pennsylvania. What
(10:31):
we're doing, especially to is we're giving people options because
I want to lock in every single Republican vote. My
message is, yes, I want you to vote. But if
you're a mom, if you're a dad, if you're a
construction worker, union worker, healthcare professional, pilot. Still many members
of our community, the Republican Party, are working class. They're
(10:51):
working twelve hour shifts. They might live in the Poconos
but have to work in New York City. Imagine trying
to drive in New York City traffic back home to
Pennsylvania to vote on election day. That's how we lose
out on votes.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
So at Early Voteaction dot Com, we push a variety
of methods to make sure that we lock in every
vote and to give you one last context because I
think data is important. When people say that Scott early
voting doesn't matter. In twenty twenty four, we got five
hundred and sixty thousand people total in the Commonwealth to
vote early or vote by mail. Dave McCormick, US Senator
(11:27):
that slipped a seat won by fifteen thousand votes. That
this kind of work matters.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Yeah, no, it does.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
So let's and we're talking with Scott Presler from Early
Voteaction dot Com. Let's talk specifically about New Jersey. So
it's an interesting year. It's an off year. Only two
gubernatorial races this year, so a lot of attension on
what is now a crappy run state in New Jersey.
I think Chitdarelli, who came so closed last time, I
(11:58):
think he's got a legitimate sh the last poll he's
only six down. If you're starting as a Democrat as
a Republican in Blue Jersey at this point only six down,
you are in a real position to win this race.
So tell me about what you're doing in New Jersey
where you're focusing to try to register people for Chitarelli
or to vote Republican.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I'm learning New Jersey. I don't know it like the
back of my hand, like I do Pa. But here's
what I do know. I'm like a sponge listening to everybody. Scott,
you should only go to Camden and Essex and Hudson. Scott,
you should just go to Bergen, Scott, go to Ocean
and Moms and Cape Man Atlantic. No, what we're doing
(12:42):
is we're doing it all baby. There are twenty one
counties in the Garden State and we have a presence
in every single one of them. So our goal is
very much like pa. What I mean by that is
you need twenty percent of Philly to win, you need
forty percent of Pittsburgh to win. So our goal stops
(13:02):
the proverbial bleeding in Camden, Newark, Trenton. War of attrition.
Try to get as many votes as you can. It's
war of margins. But at the same time also courting
working class in Bergen, Passaic, Glaster and then we need
sky high turnout. That's why I was at the Sussex
(13:25):
County Fair. We are doing the chairman over there, Chairman
Joe Labrera. His goal is to turn the sixty five
percent turnout in twenty twenty one to eighty percent turnout
in Sussex. And if we get sky high in Sussex,
Warren Hunterdon Salem, Cape May, Atlantic, Ocean, Monmouth. You hear
(13:48):
me two words, game over And so our goal is
to turn up the volume. And Jack Chattarelli only narrowly
lost by eighty four thousand votes. In twenty twenty one,
and this is a state that has now moved within
five percentage points of Kamala Harris losing. So if you're
listening to Rob right now, you hear me. New Jersey
(14:10):
is in play. I ask for your vote for Jack
Chattarelli to become our next governor on Tuesday, November fourth,
twenty twenty five. And remember we have ten days of
early in person voting. You lock in every single vote.
Let's make New Jersey a great garden state.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
So have you worked with Jack's team directly? And obviously
you're working with Jackie.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
You know he's a great guy. So are you working
kind of supplementing them? Are you doing your own thing?
Speaker 4 (14:39):
No, no coordination, not anything like that. We're doing our
own operation. But Jack was invited and was a speaker early.
Might I add at the beach comber Bart and Grill
that we had a week ago and we have five
hundred attendees in August.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
That's fantastic side heights. Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
It great energy. So no coordination, but of course the
work that we're doing, we have endorsed. We support Jack
Cheddarelli for governor.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
So you guys are an independent expenditure, you're super pack
or because there are different types.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
Of we are early vote action pack, we're a political
action committee.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Okay, so you can all right, so I didn't know
that you cannot have coordination with the candidates. Correct, Okay,
but certainly look from what they say publicly.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
And you guys can read numbers.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
You know obviously when you look at the past elections
and in his last race and in Trump's race, where
you got to go. I mean, it's not rocket science.
It's just getting there and doing what you got to do.
This would be yeah, good.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
It's also knowing our audience. I'm sorry to interrupt you,
but one thing that I think people are really not
noticing rob is Passaic County. It's this northern county that
has members of the Jewish community and has members of
the Hispanic community. This is a county, I do believe
fact check me that went Republican for the first time
since nineteen eighty eight. And so we are actively engaging
(16:06):
with these minority communities. We're focusing on those blue collar areas,
and we have wonderful partners like Anthony Calandro over at
gun for Hire in Passaic County and Anthony has really
helped unlock us to the Second Amendment community. So we're
focusing on some of those underrepresented places like you did
(16:27):
with your county executive race in Mount Vernon. We're taking
that strategy to Jersey.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
It's look, it's a winning formula. We just it's not easy.
But spending time there, I so much agree with what
you're doing.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
I mean, I like, I think I texted you.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
I wish you were around in fourteen when I ran
against Cuomo because we could have closed that gap but
potentially have won, even though Chris Christy screwed us.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
But that's a whole other story.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
But this is a race that will set the stage
for next year. That's how important this race is. If
I remember nine when I was running, when the Virginia
race went to the Republican, I said we're going to
win before we even left the house, because it's just
it's similar. You know that the trends are basically similar,
the suburban vote, how that goes, And unfortunately the problem
(17:17):
sometimes is whoever the president is, that party kind of
you know, takes a little licking sometimes, but I think
this is an exception this year. The Trump derangement syndrome
is not like it was in the past. I mean,
you got the nuts, but they are always going to
be nuts. But I think you got a lot more
people who have come over to Trump's side and said,
you know what, I may not like the guy or
(17:37):
what he says or how he says it, but things
aren't so bad.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
He's actually doing the right thing well.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
And ultimately, you know what really helped us this year
as opposed to twenty sixteen, we together as the family
won the popular vote. Yeah, whereas Hillary Clinton was able
to go on her tour and say, oh, well, they
only won because the electoral college. Jai won the popular vote. No,
baby Trump on it all. He won every swing state,
(18:06):
He won the popular vote, he won the electoral college.
He even won dear Born Michieg. Again like, come off it.
But I do have two promises I would like to
make on your show today. Promise Number one, my beautiful
people in New Jersey listening right now, you elect Jack Chattarelli,
(18:26):
and I promise you I will honor you by building
a permanent voter registration infrastructure after we win this year,
going into the twenty twenty six midterms and going into
the twenty twenty eight presidential election, turning New Jersey into
a swing state. Promise number two on air and on
(18:47):
the record, you help elect Jack Chattarelli this year. I
promise you I will spend time, I will dedicate talent
and resources to helping. If she runs, elect Elise Saphonic
is the next governor of New York next year.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
At least is fantastic. When I first ran in fourteen
for governor, I was going around the state. He was
first running for Congress in the North Country. We got
to spend a lot of time together and had so
much fun. And she's come such a long way. And
she's another example. I mean, the RGA, the Republican Governors Association,
will never put a diamond too New York unless it's very,
(19:23):
very close. She's not gonna need that dime because she's
gonna be able to raise enough money to be competitive
against a weak, horrible person like Kathy Hokeel. So there's
a legitimate shot next year, but Chitarelli's the first. That's
the ball that gets rolling down the hill. If he
can win, it will every Democrat's gonna crap in their
pants next year because they're going to be in such
(19:45):
a bad position because they're so horrible in their positions.
Let me ask you, Scott before I let you go,
So your interactions with Trump, tell me about some of
those fun stories.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
So I go to the White House and I'm in
the Roosevelt Room with Vice President J. D. Vance and
we're talking. I think I can share this, but jd
Vance just appreciated how I lovingly troll Caitlin Collins in
this kind of a running joke that I look like
her or she looks like me. You say it right.
(20:19):
I would love the opportunity to be in the press room,
maybe even seated next to her, and I feel like
that would be an iconic meme for forever. And comes
waltzing in President Trump and he's like, jd just send
them into the office after you're done with them. So
we all get to go into the Oval office with
the President of the United States with JD. Vance and
(20:39):
I even have a picture of me. And when I
met the President, he said, that's one head of hair
you got there, and then he asked his staff if
he should get a similar haircut. So President Trump is
he's such an entertainer and he's always trying to connect
with you. Which I really appreciate. You know, I'm the
(21:00):
first in my family to go to the White House
and to meet with the President of the United States,
and so I'm very honored that I get to bring
honor to my family and the press or legacy.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Well, you should be honored, and we're thankful. And so
you're you're the perfect example. As I said before, like,
don't say Republicans should not say, oh, you know, there's
a blue hair. You know, teenage, twenty year old, forget it,
you're a gay guy with long hair.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
So a lot of Republicans probably would say, well, you know,
that's a Democratic vote. You're exhibit a of the party
that we have and always have had. By the way,
a big, big tent.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
It's the Democrats who, you know, hurl this invective against
us that the media loves to run with and makes
us something we are definitely not something that they are.
By the way, they are such a horrible I don't
have to tell you. I mean, they are so discriminatory
and everything that they do, they look down on everybody.
But you are exhibit a of the of everyone who
(22:01):
should be in our party. Because you agree with us,
we agree with you, and we thank you for what
you're doing.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Scott.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I really appreciate it, honestly, Go get this win in
Jersey please.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
Oh, I want it one final pitch.
Speaker 5 (22:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
If you want lower property taxes, vote Jack Chatterrelli. If
you want no offshore win, vote Jack Chatterrelli. If you
want medical freedom, vote Jack Chatterrelli. If you want school choice,
vote Jack Chattarelli. If you want to make sure that
people are moving to New Jersey not moving away from
New Jersey, vote Jack Chatterrelly on Tuesday, November fourth, twenty
(22:33):
twenty five to become the next governor. And you vote
from the top of the ticket to the bottom of
the ticket, and you give him a legislation. Sure that
is going to pass all of his policies and initiatives.
Game on.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
That's a great point.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Don't go in there and just vote for Chitarelly and
then walk out. I mean he's useless there with Democrats
all over Trent and you got to go straight down
for Assembly and everything else. So good point, Scott, thanks
so much. I appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
Thank you.

think about the gutters. I know, you know, in the
fall you clean them out with the leaves and blah
(25:50):
blah blah. If the gutters are all backed up and
that water just drains right down to let's say a

craziness of New York Hocal China be miss Anti Trump
(26:47):
and all the crazy left just fighting Donald Trump, fighting
the federal government, you know, throwing their arms around the worst.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Of the worst.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I mean, did you ever think you'd see a party
that would be in favor of protect rapists and murderers.
Well that's today's Democrats. But thank god Trump got elected.
And thank god he said to the guy over there,
Tom Holman, you're gonna be my borders are He's like
John Wayne. You love him, you see him all the time,
and he is serious about cracking down and he is.
(27:17):
And Tom joins us right now on seven to ten.
Wr Tom, how are you?
Speaker 5 (27:21):
They're all good? Giving you a call up. I'm in
the West Wing office today, not on the road, but
I'll be on the road the next couple of days.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
So talk about New York for a second.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
I mean, obviously there's a bunch of lunatics here and
ICE agents have to do a job.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Now.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
Of course, New York and like other places, don't mask
the ICE agents. Let's just you know, be able to
dox them and put their information and put their lives
in jeopardy. And oh, by the way, let's protect all
the rapists and the murderers don't come anywhere near us.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
How the hell do you deal with this?
Speaker 5 (27:53):
All right? Look, I wake up. I'm not running a
popularity contest. I don't care what do people say. We're
gonna keep doing our job. So they and you try
to put roadblocks up and continue vilifying and slandering the
men of men and women advice. But we're going to
be out there every day. We're out there today, We're
gonna be out there tomorrow and keep doing the job
that American people have voted Donald Trump in the office
(28:13):
to do. And that's exactly what we're doing. And especially
in sanctuary states like New York and in California, we're
going to I've said that numerous times, We're going to
flood the zone in those areas because we know we
have a problem in New York City, we know we
have a problem in Chicago and la because we know
they're released some public safety threats. Illegal aliens to the
(28:35):
street every day, so we know we got a problem there.
We don't have that problem in Florida. We have that
problem in Texas. So we're going to send additional resources
to places like New York to locate those public safety
threats and national security threats. And no one in New
York State's want to stop doing stop us from doing
what we're doing.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
So are you getting any cooperation from the New York's
of the world, the Jerseys of the world.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Are they helping or are they hindering?
Speaker 5 (29:00):
You know, we're not going to help. We want access
to the jails. And there are some sheriffs in New
York that work with us, and a few behind the
scenes because they're afraid of getting caught up in politics
and they want to do the right thing remove help
us remove public safety treads from the communities. But you know,
like in New York City, you know, we did have
an agreement with Mayor Adams. I get it. You know,
(29:21):
he wrote an exact border, get us back into Rikers Islands.
We can arrest a bad guy. It will go alien
the safety and security of Rikers Island. But of course
the city Council who lost their minds. They sued have
it stopped. So, you know, we started going down a
good road with Mayor Adams, and the City Council stepped
in and stopped all that you know, good will from happening.
(29:43):
And it's just unfortunate because while we're doing working with
Mayor Adams and I was actually stood on States and them.
A couple of months ago we took twenty seven TDA
turned down well terrorist members alter streets to New York
and a task force between NYPD and I. But again,
the City Council is putting a stop to all of that.
(30:04):
So you know, you would think any member of the
City Council of New York would want public staatety threats
taken on their communities. But I think they hate President
Trump and everything he stands for.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
It.
Speaker 5 (30:15):
They hate him more than they love that city, because
if they love their city, they'd want the criminals off
the street.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Well yeah, I mean, there is no logical explanation whatsoever
how any normal human human being would protect those that
you're going after that don't belong here to begin with.
But you know, the media and of course the left here,
they're trying to portray, And I want you to tell
us exactly who you're going after right now, because of
(30:43):
course they're trying to portray it as you know, Abuela
with her little e E heat little baby, you know,
with the backpack on, the cute little mommy daddy, the
story by the way, and you know the secret flights
that were coming into Westchester County that I exposed that
was the tip of the of the spear in twenty
(31:03):
two and they called me every name in the book.
They called me a liar, I was doctoring videos, that
I was a racist. Everything that you go through in
more and it's just insanity. So tell us exactly what
you're doing, What is ice doing?
Speaker 3 (31:17):
Who they going after?
Speaker 5 (31:18):
Well, every morning, first thing I do when I get
into the office or on the road, first thing I
do every morning looks at the last twenty four hours,
what the numbers look like, look at the data. It's
about twenty two pages of data I go through every morning,
and the last I saw this morning. We're still concentrating
on public safety threats and national security threats that we
(31:39):
committed to. Right now, seventy seven to zero percent of
everybody ar rest is a public safety threat. Criminals. The
other thirty percent, who are they? Who are many or
national security threats. Most national security threats don't have a
criminal history because their old javas are laid low until
they do their thing. So at prisidence, we've taken over
(32:00):
close to four hundred Iranian nationals off the street that
are a national security threat. They don't have a criminal history,
but we got arrest them, We got to obtain them.
So that's part of the thirty percent there are criminals.
Then we got fugitives, those who who had due process
the great tax parishment will order removed deported by a
federal judge and never left. It became huge as part
(32:20):
of that thirty percent. And there is a part of
that thirty percent that are non criminals. And where are they?
How do we get them? We'll get them in places
like New York because they won't let us have the
criminal alien the safety and security of the jail. They're
going to release them in the community. That forces us
to go into community and find them. And when we
(32:41):
find them, many times they're with others who are in
the country illegally. May not be a public safety threat
during the country illegally, but guess what they're coming too.
Because we're not going to turn a blind eye to
illegal migration. We're not going to tell the ice officers,
ignore the OLCI, tuck, ignore what the law says, turn
a blind eye. That's what the last administration, and see
(33:01):
what happened, because because they send a message to the
whole world. You can enter the country legally. It's a crime,
but don't worry about it. You can stay here illegally.
No one's looking for you. But if you get convicted
of a serious aggravated family we may look for you.
So if that's a message we want to send the
whole world, you're never going to fix the problem. So
you're right. Some people we arrest in a non criminals because
we're forced into the community to find a bad guy.
(33:24):
So what we said, President Trump per made it several
weeks ago, and I've doubled troubled down on it. We're
going to flood the zone, the sanctuary cities with additional
resources because if we can't arrest one agent, can't arrest
one bad guy in a jail, I'm going to safety
and security to jail. We got to send a whole
team out in the community to look for that person,
and we're going to send a lot of teams, look
(33:44):
for a lot of people, and we're going to not
only flood the zone in the communities, we're going to
flood his own at work sites, sanctuary cities. They're going
to get exactly what they don't want, more agents in
the community, more agents in work site because you refuse
to give us the bad guy in the safety security
of the jail.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Yeah, you got to save New York from itself, and
I hope you do, and I know you will.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Mohammed Khalil, is there any way you can get this
guy out of here?
Speaker 5 (34:09):
Working hard at it, we will get him out. We
will win this. You know again, these radical judges or
you think that's the Supreme Court made the decision. They can't,
you know, stop the executive order a president from its
powers of executive orders. But you know again, it's going
to litigation. We will win. It's just unfortnate that will
give these roadblocks put up that we got to you know,
(34:30):
work around get it done. But we will get it done.
It's a privilege to come to this country and study.
It's a privilege to get a visa to come to
this country. But when you come to this country with
a visa, there are rules you must have obeyed. If
you don't bay those rules, you don't go home.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Tom Holman with us on seven to ten wo R.
Let me ask you about this your your personal safety.
I know you may not want to talk about it,
but you have got to be one of the top
targets in this country from the crazies on the left.
How do you deal with this and quite f you
know the people around you and your family and everything.
Speaker 5 (35:03):
Well, the death threats are just incredible. I do have
a security detail my family. I don't live with my
wife right now because because of the death threats. They're
a different location. I actually get to see them one
weekend a month. But look, you can threaten me all
you want. I'm not going anywhere. I'm not gonna stop
(35:25):
doing what I'm doing. So you know, it's it's unfortunate.
You know you want to you want to hate on myself,
or hate on Trump, or hate on minimum of Ice.
Ice is simply enforcing the laws that Congress and acting.
We're executing orders issued by a federal judge. So if
we don't like what Ice is doing, go thro test Congress.
We're not making this up. We're enforced laws and acted
(35:46):
by them. And you got members of Congress comparing Ice
and Nazis and races and and terrorists. Well for Nazis
and racist and terrorists for enforcing immigration law. What's that
members of Congress, They wrote the law for God's sake.
So you know, we'll continue doing what we're going to do.
The death threats unfortunately a part of the job. And
I had over a thousand protesters in my house a
(36:08):
few weeks ago, you know, screaming all all you want.
You have the right to protest. I support First Amendment rights.
But when you cross that line, when you when you
threaten a nice agent, you put hands on an Ice agent,
or you you threatened death or to to to you
know that agent, or to their families, for God's sakes,
to their wives and kids. You know that's not going
(36:29):
to be tolerated. President Trump's made it clear there's zero
tolerance on these threats. We will prosecute you to the
full system of the law when we find you, and
we will find you, all right.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Last question, what does Tom Holman amidst all these threats,
amidst the pressure of being the borders are and doing
what really is Trump's top promise in many ways, What
the hell do you do for downtime? You got to
have some fun every now and then when I can.
Speaker 5 (36:55):
I smoke some sort of dead animal. I smoke. It
could either be for pork and uh and I'll have
I'll drink a few cans of TBR. You know PBR. Yeah,
that's right, I grew up on it. It's it's you
still buy six packs for like all five bucks. But whatever.
And I listened to mar Hagar. You know, I'm a
(37:17):
country music guy. I like smoking me. I like having
a few beers I can, but uh, there's not much
downtime I got. I got a tough boss, and I
got a big job to do, and uh, not much
downtime when I do. That's what I'm doing, or making
a trip to go see my family. Don't see real
often just because of the threats.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Well, God bless you, Tom for what you're doing for
this country, and all for all the people who don't
get to thank you, and all the people who should
be thanking you.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
Will send some PBRs your way. I appreciate you.
Speaker 5 (37:44):
Coming on, Tom, you got it.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Have a great weekend. All right, tom Home, is there
anyone better than that? That is like John Wayne on steroids?
God bless him?
Speaker 3 (37:53):
All right, more to go here on the rob Astorino Show.
Don't go away. Oh, I gotta tell you about my
friends at Toyota City. That's right.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
If you're in the mood for a new car, or
if your conker finally gave.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Out, you got two options. I guess right.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
You could take public transportation and you don't want to
do that, you know that. Or you can get a
new car, and I would advise you call Toyota City
in Mamarnick. They've got pre owned cars and they actually
smell nice.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Or you can get a brand new car and they've
got big inventory of both. So here's my advice.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
You could take a ride over to Mamaronich not far
from really anywhere.
Speaker 3 (38:35):
Or you could go.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
On Toyota cityeny dot com Toyota cityeny dot com.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Look at all the cars. You could.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
You could check the pricing, you could check everything about
the car, and then if you find when you like
and you want to take a little test drive, then
just make an appointment. You know, it's it's pretty easy,
and they're really good I'm part of the Integrity Automotive
Group family because I got my vehicle from them and
Toyota City. I mean, honestly, they're really good at what
(39:04):
they do. They've got all models and trims in stock.
They've got great lease rates and financing offers, no hidden fees.
You get a handshake and that's that. So give them
a call or better yet, just go to Toyota City
NY dot com Toyota City, NY dot com.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
All right, a couple things before we get out of here.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
Oh, by the way, my social media, make sure you
follow us at rob Astarino rob A S T O
R I n O on Facebook.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
X, Instagram, truth social all this stuff.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Be posting things from my on vacation, so make sure
you look at that.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
And of course, if you've missed any part of today's.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Show, or you want to listen to other shows that
we've done, just go to the podcast seven ten wr
dot com. You could also listen live no matter where
you are on your laptop or whatever, or you go
on the iHeart app on your phone, search the Rob
as Dorino Show, listen live anywhere you at, or of
course listen to the old shows, or just do what
(40:12):
you're doing right now. Listen on in your car on
FM one oh four point three, HD two.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Or seven ten.
Speaker 2 (40:20):
Wore a couple of things I saw. Did you see
Jackson Dart He's the the rookie hopefully sensation that the
Giants drafted first. He's their quarterback. And so this guy
grew up, you know, he grew up in Utah and
then went to Mississippi. So the last thing he knows
(40:41):
about are like traffic jams and a lot of people
and tolls. This guy, there's no tolls in Utah, on
the interstates, on any highway, and not in Mississippi either.
So this the whole idea of having to pay while
you're in your car to go from this spot to
(41:03):
the other spot is like totally foreign to this guy.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
So here's a.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
Guy from Utah and Mississippi who gets drafted to the
biggest city in the world, full of people, some of
us obnoxious. And then this guy he gets in his
car and he's on the Jersey Turnpike and he keeps
seeing these signs for easy pass and he has no
idea what this thing is.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
So it's like he's wondering, is this a toll? What
do I do.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
He has no idea, so he just like keeps driving
through and he's like, I guess that's what you do.
He doesn't have an easy pass, he has no idea.
So at some point they're gonna start trying to find
this guy and just keep sending him letters.
Speaker 3 (41:44):
Of you owe this, you owe that. Welcome to New.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
Jersey, Jackson Dart, Hopefully you have a good season. Uh
ma'm Dommie's got his stupid tour all this past week, right,
the five Borrow against True Trump tour.
Speaker 3 (42:01):
So let me tell you why this is.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
You and I know how stupid this is, but it's
smart for this guy to do this whole all he
has to do. He got over the hump. He won
the Democratic primary for governor. And as I've said all along,
despite what some of you think and the wishing ain't
gonna help, it is highly likely that mom Domi is
(42:24):
going to be the next mayor of New York City period,
which might be very helpful to Republicans. By the way,
the following year, I'd love to run with that guy
as the mayor of New York City and just tie
my opponent, no matter who it is, around his neck
and you make it, Mam Dommi and your opponent.
Speaker 3 (42:40):
That's who you're running against.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
They did it for Trump, right, every Democrat put whoever
the Republican was there could have been an anti Trumper,
never Trumper. They were Donald Trump's best friend. And yeah,
I was a big supporter, always has been, always have
been of Donald Trump. And when I was running in
seventeen for reelection, this is the first year after Trump
got in, it was no every Democrat, you know, you
(43:02):
remember the TDS was insane and they had posters and
lawn signs all around Westchester of a caricature of me
with Donald Trump's hair and it said stop Trump a reno.
Speaker 3 (43:16):
So that's what they're gonna do. That's what we gotta do.
Speaker 2 (43:20):
Every Republican's got to make their Democratic opponent with ma'am Domi.
Speaker 3 (43:24):
So ma'am Dommy's on this whole five borough tour against Trump.
Speaker 2 (43:29):
It's smart because in the five burroughs, you're gonna have
overwhelming hate against Donald Trump.
Speaker 3 (43:37):
The leftists, the socialists, the people.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
Who are ignorant, people who didn't vote for him. There's
many more of them than there are of us. So
he's gonna he wants that fight with Trump, just as
Cuomo does and Adams, you.
Speaker 3 (43:52):
Know, he doesn't know what to do with Trump.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
And of course Slee was not a big Trump fan,
even though he did vote from the last time. I'm
but every day Ma'm dommy gets to run against Donald
Trump and pick a fight with him is a good
day for Mam Dommy because his opponents they don't know
how to they don't know how to fight, they don't
know how to go back against ma'm dommy, who's like
not even paying attention to them.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
It's he's going to pick the fight with Trump.
Speaker 2 (44:16):
And if Trump gets involved, that's also a great thing
for Mam Dommy because again, the senseless, ignorant idiots of
New York City, the voters, as long as you're fighting
with Trump, you're I'm good with you, doesn't matter. You're
going to destroy the city and the neighborhood I live in.
As long as you're against Trump, that's fine with me.
Those are the buffoons who are going to elect this
(44:36):
guy the next mayor of New York City. And what
the hell is Cracker Barrel doing? By the way, I
love Cracker Bell. I don't know about you. But when
we go on on vacations. Well, not so much anymore
because a lot of it is my wife and I
because the kids are older. But when we were you know,
with the kids who were younger, when we were traveling
down ninety five or whatever to go to you know,
(44:59):
North Carolina, I know, or wherever we would go, or
like in Florida or other places. I would love to
go a crack about Cracker Barrel because I actually like
the food and it's not that expensive.
Speaker 3 (45:11):
You can actually get a decent meal.
Speaker 2 (45:13):
For like ten bucks. So when you're with three kids,
it's all about it's about quantity, not quality. Just shove
things down their throats so we can get to the
next meal. And I love crack. I love everything about
Cracker Barrel. I love the old you know, the antiques,
just the decor.
Speaker 3 (45:31):
I just kind of like it.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
So some you know, some numbskull, probably some new marketing
person who probably this is going to be Dylan mulvaney
all over again. Likely they're like, hey, you know, I'm
fresh out of college. My advice is, let's just redo
every Cracker Barrel. Let's just kind of, you know, quote
freshen it up. So they announced this that they're going
to make all these changes to the Cracker Barrel restaurants,
(45:55):
and people are going nuts. They can't stand it. They're like,
can't you just leave it alone. This is what happens
when you get the over educated, the over colleged that
don't know their audience, that are gonna come in and
do things that are antithical to who they're trying to reach.
That was the Budweiser light thing, bud light. That's why
(46:17):
they collapsed. Anyway, I just had to get the Cracker
Bartrel of off my chest.
Speaker 3 (46:23):
I'm out of time here. I got to get out
of here. I will be off next week. I'm not
sure who's.
Speaker 2 (46:29):
Gonna co host or gonna host actually for me, but
I have to. We're gonna be on vacation. We're gonna
be out West Montana, Wyoming, Yellowstone, Idaho.
Speaker 3 (46:38):
I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (46:39):
Can't wait to tell you all about it. So make
sure you tune in no matter what, and always have
it down in your Google calendar. Saturday's four o'clock Rob
ask Reno Show. All right, so thanks again. I will
be back a week from the two weeks from today.
Enjoy your Saturday night, enjoy your weekend, and chow for now,
take care.
Speaker 1 (47:00):
This hour of programming on sevent ten WOR is sponsored
by Toyota City and Mamaranac and Nissan City of port Chester,
proud members of the Integrity Automotive Group,
This hour of programming on seven ten doubr He's sponsored
by Toyota City and Mamaranac and Nissan City of port Chester,
proud members of the Integrity Automotive Group. Now former Westchester
County Executive Rob Astarito on seven.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Ten, Well, here we go again, another Saturday afternoon. Rob
Astarino with you on seven ten wor big day yesterday
and Alaska of all places.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Of course, Trump and Putin meeting.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I don't even want to talk about that, you know what,
I don't even want to talk I want to talk
about joys because we've got a huge race coming up.
Of course, as you know, Jack Schitdarelli, our friend has
been on.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
He'll be on again.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
We'll do that like right after Labor Day this week
he was in Israel, and so many things happening right here,
the mam DOMI nuts, the crazies in New York City,
the mayoral race, polls come out, so many things. Plus
of course, you know, Trump federalizing DC.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Tom Holman's gonna come on a little bit later in
this show. We're gonna talk about ice and sanctuary in
New York all that nonsense. So stick around the next hour.
But first, you know, so Trump of course had to
break through the blue wall last year to win, and
he did, I mean, he swept, which was fantastic, And
now you can see the difference in the country. We're
obviously on the right direction. He's doing things nobody thought
(01:29):
was possible. But one of the reasons why he won Pennsylvania,
and one of the reasons why Chitarelli might win in
New Jersey is because finally, finally, and I was saying
this back when I was running in fourteen for governor,
you have all these keyboard warriors, you know, the NRA
folks and so many other people that love to scream
(01:50):
and yell online, but then they don't register and they
don't vote, and it doesn't matter, and then we lose.
So Scott Presler, who you've seen i'm sure on TV,
on Newsmax or other stations, he put together a great
plan called Early Vote Action, that's his pack. But he
actually said, let me go to fricking Pennsylvania and prove
how we can register Republicans and win. And he's now
doing that in Jersey, which is enormously.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Helpful for Chitdarelli. So Scott is with us right now
on seven to ten wl R.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Scott, how are you good afternoon? I am ready to
rock and roll.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
As you're up.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
So I want to go backwards. What made you decide
to you know, get your hands dirty, go out there
and try to do what really let's be honest. The
state parties, the county parties, you know, the RNC what
they should have been doing all along, and that is
putting an emphasis on registering Republicans and then getting them
(02:45):
out to vote.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Why did you start doing that?
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Thank you? I've been doing this now for a decade,
and I would like to thank and honor President Obama.
Now I'm serious. When he was reelected in twenty twelve,
I was a dog walker working at an elementary school,
and I saw our country going in the wrong direction,
and I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm only a voter. Yes,
(03:12):
I voted in the twenty twelve election for Mitt Romney,
but I didn't do anything else. I wasn't door knock king,
I wasn't registering voters. I wasn't helping to elect good
conservative officials in the office. And I went, no, Scott,
you are the problem. Stop looking to society to solve
your problems. The only way that we're going to do
(03:33):
something is by getting concerned citizens to come together, and
we're going to do it ourselves. And so in twenty fourteen,
I moved my life halfway across the country to Texas
to help elect Governor Greg Abbott into office. And it
really was through that job that I learned how to
become a community organizer. So you know, I guess I
(03:55):
can run for president now like president, and you.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Could also you could but also win a Nobel Peace
Prize just getting elected and doing nothing else exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
And I just I learned how to hone my craft
a voter registration, of making it fun, of organizing volunteers, recruiting,
knocking on doors in one hundred degree heat down there
in Texas. And this has just turned into a lifelong
mission of them going to defeat Hillary Clinton, electing Donald Trump,
focusing on the midterm elections, going through the twenty twenty election,
(04:28):
and now we have our redemption. Donald Trump has been
re elected as the forty seventh President of the United States,
and my organization, in part in part early voteaction dot Com,
we helped to deliver the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and so
I'm going to be around for the next forty years
doing this work rap and I hope to teach more
(04:48):
people how to register voters.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
You know, obviously it's enormously important. It drove me nuts
in my races because people they scream and shout, they
want to help, and then you realize they're not registered,
and then they don't want to one jury duty whatever.
That just it's so nonsensical and frustrating, and you know
how it is. And I always would say, look, if
we're going to the county fair, or if we're going
(05:14):
to this you know, NRA gathering, why the hell aren't
we bringing a stack full of voter registration forms and
then following up?
Speaker 3 (05:21):
So how how are you doing it?
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Well, let me give you some examples of why we're
so successful and how we do what we do. So
every Friday we're at the Green Dragon Farmers' Market in
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Lancaster is where we have the beautiful
Amish community, and we go to farmers' markets because people
shop local. They are Maha, they love that RFK Junior Vane.
(05:47):
We're targeting audiences because we already know they're likely to
be conservative going to gunshops, farmers' markets, fraternity houses, et cetera.
So this guy comes over to our cable and we
engage with everyone. Rob, you're a living, breathing human, you know,
American citizen. We're asking you if you're registered to vote.
(06:08):
And I'm talking to this young dad. I didn't know
he was a dad at the time, but I'm talking
to this young man and I'm like, are you registered?
He's like, I've never voted my whole life. And so
instantly I go into Purana mode. And that means that
I'm going I Am going to work tirelessly right then
and there and be as persuasive and cajole him as
(06:28):
I can to get him to register. And I said, listen,
I don't know what your story is. I don't know
if your dad you know, but we want to make
sure that we're not pushing these horrible things in our schools,
that we're creating a good economy so that you can
raise your family. Then get this Rob in the bathroom
far in the back. His wife comes out, a very
(06:50):
pregnant wife, and at that moment I had convinced him.
I shoved the clipboard over to him very nicely. But aggressively.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Do you pre bok pre check the Republican box or no.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
No, no, no, prechet We're honest that early vote action.
We're honest. Anyway, So the wife comes over and she
goes Finally he's finally registering to vote, and with this
very pregnant mom, I was just like, Wow, I hit
the nail on the head, didn't I that. I spoke
to him at that right moment, talking about the fact
that he is a dad, not even knowing, and I
(07:25):
was able to almost micro target and I just got
a plus one new Republican voter in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
And that's how we do it. This is peer to peer,
one on one, investing in people, pouring into people. That
is the magic.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
It's because he thought you were prettier than his wife.
You have long hair. That's why, right, my.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Hair was looking good that day. I'm not gonna lie
my hair.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
So you know, that's great, And it is such hard work,
one by one, day by day. But you know, I
remember I had in I think my first race for
county executive, I had the so called experts tell me
like Westchester. I don't know if you're familiar with but
(08:11):
like Malvernon. Let's say Malvernon is like eighty percent Democrat
African American. You know, Republicans go to die there. They
get like six percent of the vote no matter what
the race is. And I kept being told, don't go there.
They won't vote for you, and I'm like, well, well
of course they won't because I've never said.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Hello, you know.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
And I spent time in Malvernon and I ended up
getting thirty percent of the vote. That's and that was
the first returns that came in that night in two
thousand and nine, and I said, we won the race.
And it was like, had you I said, we got
thirty percent of Malvernon.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
There's no way we.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Can lose this, right, And we winded up, you know,
beating a Democrat in a two and a half to
one county of Democrats.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
We ended up blowing them out.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
But the point is, just like you're doing, if you
don't go there, if you don't engage people. And by
the way, just because somebody has blue hair doesn't necessarily
mean they won't vote with bubble ya, you know. And honestly,
and if you have that discussion and engagement, you cannot
lose if they're not going to vote for you, fine,
nothing ventured, nothing gained, but all of a sudden you
(09:15):
can get them right well.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
And to give you another example, it's fair season some
so glad you brought up fairs. We're at everything, the
Green County Fair, Fayette County Fair, Washington County Fair, Crawford
County Fair, Wayne County Fair. I was just there with
my team and on one single day in Wayne County,
which is a very rural county. It's actually right near
(09:40):
the conversience of New York and New Jersey where Pike
County is up there in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
So the Northern Pennsylvania, southern.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Northern Tier, YEP, Northeast Pennsylvania. We got fifty eight people
registered to vote in one day in Pennsylvania, and you
know what, the majority of them signed up for mail
in ballas otherwise as what we call emergency backup ballots
because we know where people are preppers. And think about it, Wayne,
do you think there are going to be more access
(10:10):
to voting locations and voting options in a rural county
or fewer options versus Alleghany, Silly or New York City.
And so really, if we don't push alternatives to voting
and only vote on election day. You know, it could
snow up there in the mountains in northeast Pennsylvania. What
(10:31):
we're doing, especially to is we're giving people options because
I want to lock in every single Republican vote. My
message is, yes, I want you to vote. But if
you're a mom, if you're a dad, if you're a
construction worker, union worker, healthcare professional, pilot. Still many members
of our community, the Republican Party, are working class. They're
(10:51):
working twelve hour shifts. They might live in the Poconos
but have to work in New York City. Imagine trying
to drive in New York City traffic back home to
Pennsylvania to vote on election day. That's how we lose
out on votes.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
So at Early Voteaction dot Com, we push a variety
of methods to make sure that we lock in every
vote and to give you one last context because I
think data is important. When people say that Scott early
voting doesn't matter. In twenty twenty four, we got five
hundred and sixty thousand people total in the Commonwealth to
vote early or vote by mail. Dave McCormick, US Senator
(11:27):
that slipped a seat won by fifteen thousand votes. That
this kind of work matters.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Yeah, no, it does.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
So let's and we're talking with Scott Presler from Early
Voteaction dot Com. Let's talk specifically about New Jersey. So
it's an interesting year. It's an off year. Only two
gubernatorial races this year, so a lot of attension on
what is now a crappy run state in New Jersey.
I think Chitdarelli, who came so closed last time, I
(11:58):
think he's got a legitimate sh the last poll he's
only six down. If you're starting as a Democrat as
a Republican in Blue Jersey at this point only six down,
you are in a real position to win this race.
So tell me about what you're doing in New Jersey
where you're focusing to try to register people for Chitarelli
or to vote Republican.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I'm learning New Jersey. I don't know it like the
back of my hand, like I do Pa. But here's
what I do know. I'm like a sponge listening to everybody. Scott,
you should only go to Camden and Essex and Hudson. Scott,
you should just go to Bergen, Scott, go to Ocean
and Moms and Cape Man Atlantic. No, what we're doing
(12:42):
is we're doing it all baby. There are twenty one
counties in the Garden State and we have a presence
in every single one of them. So our goal is
very much like pa. What I mean by that is
you need twenty percent of Philly to win, you need
forty percent of Pittsburgh to win. So our goal stops
(13:02):
the proverbial bleeding in Camden, Newark, Trenton. War of attrition.
Try to get as many votes as you can. It's
war of margins. But at the same time also courting
working class in Bergen, Passaic, Glaster and then we need
sky high turnout. That's why I was at the Sussex
(13:25):
County Fair. We are doing the chairman over there, Chairman
Joe Labrera. His goal is to turn the sixty five
percent turnout in twenty twenty one to eighty percent turnout
in Sussex. And if we get sky high in Sussex,
Warren Hunterdon Salem, Cape May, Atlantic, Ocean, Monmouth. You hear
(13:48):
me two words, game over And so our goal is
to turn up the volume. And Jack Chattarelli only narrowly
lost by eighty four thousand votes. In twenty twenty one,
and this is a state that has now moved within
five percentage points of Kamala Harris losing. So if you're
listening to Rob right now, you hear me. New Jersey
(14:10):
is in play. I ask for your vote for Jack
Chattarelli to become our next governor on Tuesday, November fourth,
twenty twenty five. And remember we have ten days of
early in person voting. You lock in every single vote.
Let's make New Jersey a great garden state.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
So have you worked with Jack's team directly? And obviously
you're working with Jackie.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
You know he's a great guy. So are you working
kind of supplementing them? Are you doing your own thing?
Speaker 4 (14:39):
No, no coordination, not anything like that. We're doing our
own operation. But Jack was invited and was a speaker early.
Might I add at the beach comber Bart and Grill
that we had a week ago and we have five
hundred attendees in August.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
That's fantastic side heights. Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
It great energy. So no coordination, but of course the
work that we're doing, we have endorsed. We support Jack
Cheddarelli for governor.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
So you guys are an independent expenditure, you're super pack
or because there are different types.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
Of we are early vote action pack, we're a political
action committee.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Okay, so you can all right, so I didn't know
that you cannot have coordination with the candidates. Correct, Okay,
but certainly look from what they say publicly.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
And you guys can read numbers.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
You know obviously when you look at the past elections
and in his last race and in Trump's race, where
you got to go. I mean, it's not rocket science.
It's just getting there and doing what you got to do.
This would be yeah, good.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
It's also knowing our audience. I'm sorry to interrupt you,
but one thing that I think people are really not
noticing rob is Passaic County. It's this northern county that
has members of the Jewish community and has members of
the Hispanic community. This is a county, I do believe
fact check me that went Republican for the first time
since nineteen eighty eight. And so we are actively engaging
(16:06):
with these minority communities. We're focusing on those blue collar areas,
and we have wonderful partners like Anthony Calandro over at
gun for Hire in Passaic County and Anthony has really
helped unlock us to the Second Amendment community. So we're
focusing on some of those underrepresented places like you did
(16:27):
with your county executive race in Mount Vernon. We're taking
that strategy to Jersey.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
It's look, it's a winning formula. We just it's not easy.
But spending time there, I so much agree with what
you're doing.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
I mean, I like, I think I texted you.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
I wish you were around in fourteen when I ran
against Cuomo because we could have closed that gap but
potentially have won, even though Chris Christy screwed us.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
But that's a whole other story.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
But this is a race that will set the stage
for next year. That's how important this race is. If
I remember nine when I was running, when the Virginia
race went to the Republican, I said we're going to
win before we even left the house, because it's just
it's similar. You know that the trends are basically similar,
the suburban vote, how that goes, And unfortunately the problem
(17:17):
sometimes is whoever the president is, that party kind of
you know, takes a little licking sometimes, but I think
this is an exception this year. The Trump derangement syndrome
is not like it was in the past. I mean,
you got the nuts, but they are always going to
be nuts. But I think you got a lot more
people who have come over to Trump's side and said,
you know what, I may not like the guy or
(17:37):
what he says or how he says it, but things
aren't so bad.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
He's actually doing the right thing well.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
And ultimately, you know what really helped us this year
as opposed to twenty sixteen, we together as the family
won the popular vote. Yeah, whereas Hillary Clinton was able
to go on her tour and say, oh, well, they
only won because the electoral college. Jai won the popular vote. No,
baby Trump on it all. He won every swing state,
(18:06):
He won the popular vote, he won the electoral college.
He even won dear Born Michieg. Again like, come off it.
But I do have two promises I would like to
make on your show today. Promise Number one, my beautiful
people in New Jersey listening right now, you elect Jack Chattarelli,
(18:26):
and I promise you I will honor you by building
a permanent voter registration infrastructure after we win this year,
going into the twenty twenty six midterms and going into
the twenty twenty eight presidential election, turning New Jersey into
a swing state. Promise number two on air and on
(18:47):
the record, you help elect Jack Chattarelli this year. I
promise you I will spend time, I will dedicate talent
and resources to helping. If she runs, elect Elise Saphonic
is the next governor of New York next year.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
At least is fantastic. When I first ran in fourteen
for governor, I was going around the state. He was
first running for Congress in the North Country. We got
to spend a lot of time together and had so
much fun. And she's come such a long way. And
she's another example. I mean, the RGA, the Republican Governors Association,
will never put a diamond too New York unless it's very,
(19:23):
very close. She's not gonna need that dime because she's
gonna be able to raise enough money to be competitive
against a weak, horrible person like Kathy Hokeel. So there's
a legitimate shot next year, but Chitarelli's the first. That's
the ball that gets rolling down the hill. If he
can win, it will every Democrat's gonna crap in their
pants next year because they're going to be in such
(19:45):
a bad position because they're so horrible in their positions.
Let me ask you, Scott before I let you go,
So your interactions with Trump, tell me about some of
those fun stories.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
So I go to the White House and I'm in
the Roosevelt Room with Vice President J. D. Vance and
we're talking. I think I can share this, but jd
Vance just appreciated how I lovingly troll Caitlin Collins in
this kind of a running joke that I look like
her or she looks like me. You say it right.
(20:19):
I would love the opportunity to be in the press room,
maybe even seated next to her, and I feel like
that would be an iconic meme for forever. And comes
waltzing in President Trump and he's like, jd just send
them into the office after you're done with them. So
we all get to go into the Oval office with
the President of the United States with JD. Vance and
(20:39):
I even have a picture of me. And when I
met the President, he said, that's one head of hair
you got there, and then he asked his staff if
he should get a similar haircut. So President Trump is
he's such an entertainer and he's always trying to connect
with you. Which I really appreciate. You know, I'm the
(21:00):
first in my family to go to the White House
and to meet with the President of the United States,
and so I'm very honored that I get to bring
honor to my family and the press or legacy.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Well, you should be honored, and we're thankful. And so
you're you're the perfect example. As I said before, like,
don't say Republicans should not say, oh, you know, there's
a blue hair. You know, teenage, twenty year old, forget it,
you're a gay guy with long hair.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
So a lot of Republicans probably would say, well, you know,
that's a Democratic vote. You're exhibit a of the party
that we have and always have had. By the way,
a big, big tent.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
It's the Democrats who, you know, hurl this invective against
us that the media loves to run with and makes
us something we are definitely not something that they are.
By the way, they are such a horrible I don't
have to tell you. I mean, they are so discriminatory
and everything that they do, they look down on everybody.
But you are exhibit a of the of everyone who
(22:01):
should be in our party. Because you agree with us,
we agree with you, and we thank you for what
you're doing.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Scott.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I really appreciate it, honestly, Go get this win in
Jersey please.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
Oh, I want it one final pitch.
Speaker 5 (22:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
If you want lower property taxes, vote Jack Chatterrelli. If
you want no offshore win, vote Jack Chatterrelli. If you
want medical freedom, vote Jack Chatterrelli. If you want school choice,
vote Jack Chattarelli. If you want to make sure that
people are moving to New Jersey not moving away from
New Jersey, vote Jack Chatterrelly on Tuesday, November fourth, twenty
(22:33):
twenty five to become the next governor. And you vote
from the top of the ticket to the bottom of
the ticket, and you give him a legislation. Sure that
is going to pass all of his policies and initiatives.
Game on.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
That's a great point.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Don't go in there and just vote for Chitarelly and
then walk out. I mean he's useless there with Democrats
all over Trent and you got to go straight down
for Assembly and everything else. So good point, Scott, thanks
so much. I appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
Thank you.

in sanctuary states like New York and in California, we're
going to I've said that numerous times, We're going to
flood the zone in those areas because we know we
have a problem in New York City, we know we
have a problem in Chicago and la because we know
they're released some public safety threats. Illegal aliens to the
(28:35):
street every day, so we know we got a problem there.
We don't have that problem in Florida. We have that
problem in Texas. So we're going to send additional resources
to places like New York to locate those public safety
threats and national security threats. And no one in New
York State's want to stop doing stop us from doing
what we're doing.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
So are you getting any cooperation from the New York's
of the world, the Jerseys of the world.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Are they helping or are they hindering?
Speaker 5 (29:00):
You know, we're not going to help. We want access
to the jails. And there are some sheriffs in New
York that work with us, and a few behind the
scenes because they're afraid of getting caught up in politics
and they want to do the right thing remove help
us remove public safety treads from the communities. But you know,
like in New York City, you know, we did have
an agreement with Mayor Adams. I get it. You know,
(29:21):
he wrote an exact border, get us back into Rikers Islands.
We can arrest a bad guy. It will go alien
the safety and security of Rikers Island. But of course
the city Council who lost their minds. They sued have
it stopped. So, you know, we started going down a
good road with Mayor Adams, and the City Council stepped
in and stopped all that you know, good will from happening.
(29:43):
And it's just unfortunate because while we're doing working with
Mayor Adams and I was actually stood on States and them.
A couple of months ago we took twenty seven TDA
turned down well terrorist members alter streets to New York
and a task force between NYPD and I. But again,
the City Council is putting a stop to all of that.
(30:04):
So you know, you would think any member of the
City Council of New York would want public staatety threats
taken on their communities. But I think they hate President
Trump and everything he stands for.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
It.
Speaker 5 (30:15):
They hate him more than they love that city, because
if they love their city, they'd want the criminals off
the street.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Well yeah, I mean, there is no logical explanation whatsoever
how any normal human human being would protect those that
you're going after that don't belong here to begin with.
But you know, the media and of course the left here,
they're trying to portray, And I want you to tell
us exactly who you're going after right now, because of
(30:43):
course they're trying to portray it as you know, Abuela
with her little e E heat little baby, you know,
with the backpack on, the cute little mommy daddy, the
story by the way, and you know the secret flights
that were coming into Westchester County that I exposed that
was the tip of the of the spear in twenty
(31:03):
two and they called me every name in the book.
They called me a liar, I was doctoring videos, that
I was a racist. Everything that you go through in
more and it's just insanity. So tell us exactly what
you're doing, What is ice doing?
Speaker 3 (31:17):
Who they going after?
Speaker 5 (31:18):
Well, every morning, first thing I do when I get
into the office or on the road, first thing I
do every morning looks at the last twenty four hours,
what the numbers look like, look at the data. It's
about twenty two pages of data I go through every morning,
and the last I saw this morning. We're still concentrating
on public safety threats and national security threats that we
(31:39):
committed to. Right now, seventy seven to zero percent of
everybody ar rest is a public safety threat. Criminals. The
other thirty percent, who are they? Who are many or
national security threats. Most national security threats don't have a
criminal history because their old javas are laid low until
they do their thing. So at prisidence, we've taken over
(32:00):
close to four hundred Iranian nationals off the street that
are a national security threat. They don't have a criminal history,
but we got arrest them, We got to obtain them.
So that's part of the thirty percent there are criminals.
Then we got fugitives, those who who had due process
the great tax parishment will order removed deported by a
federal judge and never left. It became huge as part
(32:20):
of that thirty percent. And there is a part of
that thirty percent that are non criminals. And where are they?
How do we get them? We'll get them in places
like New York because they won't let us have the
criminal alien the safety and security of the jail. They're
going to release them in the community. That forces us
to go into community and find them. And when we
(32:41):
find them, many times they're with others who are in
the country illegally. May not be a public safety threat
during the country illegally, but guess what they're coming too.
Because we're not going to turn a blind eye to
illegal migration. We're not going to tell the ice officers,
ignore the OLCI, tuck, ignore what the law says, turn
a blind eye. That's what the last administration, and see
(33:01):
what happened, because because they send a message to the
whole world. You can enter the country legally. It's a crime,
but don't worry about it. You can stay here illegally.
No one's looking for you. But if you get convicted
of a serious aggravated family we may look for you.
So if that's a message we want to send the
whole world, you're never going to fix the problem. So
you're right. Some people we arrest in a non criminals because
we're forced into the community to find a bad guy.
(33:24):
So what we said, President Trump per made it several
weeks ago, and I've doubled troubled down on it. We're
going to flood the zone, the sanctuary cities with additional
resources because if we can't arrest one agent, can't arrest
one bad guy in a jail, I'm going to safety
and security to jail. We got to send a whole
team out in the community to look for that person,
and we're going to send a lot of teams, look
(33:44):
for a lot of people, and we're going to not
only flood the zone in the communities, we're going to
flood his own at work sites, sanctuary cities. They're going
to get exactly what they don't want, more agents in
the community, more agents in work site because you refuse
to give us the bad guy in the safety security
of the jail.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Yeah, you got to save New York from itself, and
I hope you do, and I know you will.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Mohammed Khalil, is there any way you can get this
guy out of here?
Speaker 5 (34:09):
Working hard at it, we will get him out. We
will win this. You know again, these radical judges or
you think that's the Supreme Court made the decision. They can't,
you know, stop the executive order a president from its
powers of executive orders. But you know again, it's going
to litigation. We will win. It's just unfortnate that will
give these roadblocks put up that we got to you know,
(34:30):
work around get it done. But we will get it done.
It's a privilege to come to this country and study.
It's a privilege to get a visa to come to
this country. But when you come to this country with
a visa, there are rules you must have obeyed. If
you don't bay those rules, you don't go home.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Tom Holman with us on seven to ten wo R.
Let me ask you about this your your personal safety.
I know you may not want to talk about it,
but you have got to be one of the top
targets in this country from the crazies on the left.
How do you deal with this and quite f you
know the people around you and your family and everything.
Speaker 5 (35:03):
Well, the death threats are just incredible. I do have
a security detail my family. I don't live with my
wife right now because because of the death threats. They're
a different location. I actually get to see them one
weekend a month. But look, you can threaten me all
you want. I'm not going anywhere. I'm not gonna stop
(35:25):
doing what I'm doing. So you know, it's it's unfortunate.
You know you want to you want to hate on myself,
or hate on Trump, or hate on minimum of Ice.
Ice is simply enforcing the laws that Congress and acting.
We're executing orders issued by a federal judge. So if
we don't like what Ice is doing, go thro test Congress.
We're not making this up. We're enforced laws and acted
(35:46):
by them. And you got members of Congress comparing Ice
and Nazis and races and and terrorists. Well for Nazis
and racist and terrorists for enforcing immigration law. What's that
members of Congress, They wrote the law for God's sake.
So you know, we'll continue doing what we're going to do.
The death threats unfortunately a part of the job. And
I had over a thousand protesters in my house a
(36:08):
few weeks ago, you know, screaming all all you want.
You have the right to protest. I support First Amendment rights.
But when you cross that line, when you when you
threaten a nice agent, you put hands on an Ice agent,
or you you threatened death or to to to you
know that agent, or to their families, for God's sakes,
to their wives and kids. You know that's not going
(36:29):
to be tolerated. President Trump's made it clear there's zero
tolerance on these threats. We will prosecute you to the
full system of the law when we find you, and
we will find you, all right.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Last question, what does Tom Holman amidst all these threats,
amidst the pressure of being the borders are and doing
what really is Trump's top promise in many ways, What
the hell do you do for downtime? You got to
have some fun every now and then when I can.
Speaker 5 (36:55):
I smoke some sort of dead animal. I smoke. It
could either be for pork and uh and I'll have
I'll drink a few cans of TBR. You know PBR. Yeah,
that's right, I grew up on it. It's it's you
still buy six packs for like all five bucks. But whatever.
And I listened to mar Hagar. You know, I'm a
(37:17):
country music guy. I like smoking me. I like having
a few beers I can, but uh, there's not much
downtime I got. I got a tough boss, and I
got a big job to do, and uh, not much
downtime when I do. That's what I'm doing, or making
a trip to go see my family. Don't see real
often just because of the threats.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Well, God bless you, Tom for what you're doing for
this country, and all for all the people who don't
get to thank you, and all the people who should
be thanking you.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
Will send some PBRs your way. I appreciate you.
Speaker 5 (37:44):
Coming on, Tom, you got it.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Have a great weekend. All right, tom Home, is there
anyone better than that? That is like John Wayne on steroids?
God bless him?
Speaker 3 (37:53):
All right, more to go here on the rob Astorino Show.
Don't go away. Oh, I gotta tell you about my
friends at Toyota City. That's right.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
If you're in the mood for a new car, or
if your conker finally gave.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Out, you got two options. I guess right.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
You could take public transportation and you don't want to
do that, you know that. Or you can get a
new car, and I would advise you call Toyota City
in Mamarnick. They've got pre owned cars and they actually
smell nice.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Or you can get a brand new car and they've
got big inventory of both. So here's my advice.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
You could take a ride over to Mamaronich not far
from really anywhere.
Speaker 3 (38:35):
Or you could go.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
On Toyota cityeny dot com Toyota cityeny dot com.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Look at all the cars. You could.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
You could check the pricing, you could check everything about
the car, and then if you find when you like
and you want to take a little test drive, then
just make an appointment. You know, it's it's pretty easy,
and they're really good I'm part of the Integrity Automotive
Group family because I got my vehicle from them and
Toyota City. I mean, honestly, they're really good at what
(39:04):
they do. They've got all models and trims in stock.
They've got great lease rates and financing offers, no hidden fees.
You get a handshake and that's that. So give them
a call or better yet, just go to Toyota City
NY dot com Toyota City, NY dot com.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
All right, a couple things before we get out of here.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
Oh, by the way, my social media, make sure you
follow us at rob Astarino rob A S T O
R I n O on Facebook.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
X, Instagram, truth social all this stuff.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Be posting things from my on vacation, so make sure
you look at that.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
And of course, if you've missed any part of today's.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Show, or you want to listen to other shows that
we've done, just go to the podcast seven ten wr
dot com. You could also listen live no matter where
you are on your laptop or whatever, or you go
on the iHeart app on your phone, search the Rob
as Dorino Show, listen live anywhere you at, or of
course listen to the old shows, or just do what
(40:12):
you're doing right now. Listen on in your car on
FM one oh four point three, HD two.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Or seven ten.
Speaker 2 (40:20):
Wore a couple of things I saw. Did you see
Jackson Dart He's the the rookie hopefully sensation that the
Giants drafted first. He's their quarterback. And so this guy
grew up, you know, he grew up in Utah and
then went to Mississippi. So the last thing he knows
(40:41):
about are like traffic jams and a lot of people
and tolls. This guy, there's no tolls in Utah, on
the interstates, on any highway, and not in Mississippi either.
So this the whole idea of having to pay while
you're in your car to go from this spot to
(41:03):
the other spot is like totally foreign to this guy.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
So here's a.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
Guy from Utah and Mississippi who gets drafted to the
biggest city in the world, full of people, some of
us obnoxious. And then this guy he gets in his
car and he's on the Jersey Turnpike and he keeps
seeing these signs for easy pass and he has no
idea what this thing is.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
So it's like he's wondering, is this a toll? What
do I do.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
He has no idea, so he just like keeps driving
through and he's like, I guess that's what you do.
He doesn't have an easy pass, he has no idea.
So at some point they're gonna start trying to find
this guy and just keep sending him letters.
Speaker 3 (41:44):
Of you owe this, you owe that. Welcome to New.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
Jersey, Jackson Dart, Hopefully you have a good season. Uh
ma'm Dommie's got his stupid tour all this past week, right,
the five Borrow against True Trump tour.
Speaker 3 (42:01):
So let me tell you why this is.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
You and I know how stupid this is, but it's
smart for this guy to do this whole all he
has to do. He got over the hump. He won
the Democratic primary for governor. And as I've said all along,
despite what some of you think and the wishing ain't
gonna help, it is highly likely that mom Domi is
(42:24):
going to be the next mayor of New York City period,
which might be very helpful to Republicans. By the way,
the following year, I'd love to run with that guy
as the mayor of New York City and just tie
my opponent, no matter who it is, around his neck
and you make it, Mam Dommi and your opponent.
Speaker 3 (42:40):
That's who you're running against.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
They did it for Trump, right, every Democrat put whoever
the Republican was there could have been an anti Trumper,
never Trumper. They were Donald Trump's best friend. And yeah,
I was a big supporter, always has been, always have
been of Donald Trump. And when I was running in
seventeen for reelection, this is the first year after Trump
got in, it was no every Democrat, you know, you
(43:02):
remember the TDS was insane and they had posters and
lawn signs all around Westchester of a caricature of me
with Donald Trump's hair and it said stop Trump a reno.
Speaker 3 (43:16):
So that's what they're gonna do. That's what we gotta do.
Speaker 2 (43:20):
Every Republican's got to make their Democratic opponent with ma'am Domi.
Speaker 3 (43:24):
So ma'am Dommy's on this whole five borough tour against Trump.
Speaker 2 (43:29):
It's smart because in the five burroughs, you're gonna have
overwhelming hate against Donald Trump.
Speaker 3 (43:37):
The leftists, the socialists, the people.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
Who are ignorant, people who didn't vote for him. There's
many more of them than there are of us. So
he's gonna he wants that fight with Trump, just as
Cuomo does and Adams, you.
Speaker 3 (43:52):
Know, he doesn't know what to do with Trump.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
And of course Slee was not a big Trump fan,
even though he did vote from the last time. I'm
but every day Ma'm dommy gets to run against Donald
Trump and pick a fight with him is a good
day for Mam Dommy because his opponents they don't know
how to they don't know how to fight, they don't
know how to go back against ma'm dommy, who's like
not even paying attention to them.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
It's he's going to pick the fight with Trump.
Speaker 2 (44:16):
And if Trump gets involved, that's also a great thing
for Mam Dommy because again, the senseless, ignorant idiots of
New York City, the voters, as long as you're fighting
with Trump, you're I'm good with you, doesn't matter. You're
going to destroy the city and the neighborhood I live in.
As long as you're against Trump, that's fine with me.
Those are the buffoons who are going to elect this
(44:36):
guy the next mayor of New York City. And what
the hell is Cracker Barrel doing? By the way, I
love Cracker Bell. I don't know about you. But when
we go on on vacations. Well, not so much anymore
because a lot of it is my wife and I
because the kids are older. But when we were you know,
with the kids who were younger, when we were traveling
down ninety five or whatever to go to you know,
(44:59):
North Carolina, I know, or wherever we would go, or
like in Florida or other places. I would love to
go a crack about Cracker Barrel because I actually like
the food and it's not that expensive.
Speaker 3 (45:11):
You can actually get a decent meal.
Speaker 2 (45:13):
For like ten bucks. So when you're with three kids,
it's all about it's about quantity, not quality. Just shove
things down their throats so we can get to the
next meal. And I love crack. I love everything about
Cracker Barrel. I love the old you know, the antiques,
just the decor.
Speaker 3 (45:31):
I just kind of like it.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
So some you know, some numbskull, probably some new marketing
person who probably this is going to be Dylan mulvaney
all over again. Likely they're like, hey, you know, I'm
fresh out of college. My advice is, let's just redo
every Cracker Barrel. Let's just kind of, you know, quote
freshen it up. So they announced this that they're going
to make all these changes to the Cracker Barrel restaurants,
(45:55):
and people are going nuts. They can't stand it. They're like,
can't you just leave it alone. This is what happens
when you get the over educated, the over colleged that
don't know their audience, that are gonna come in and
do things that are antithical to who they're trying to reach.
That was the Budweiser light thing, bud light. That's why
(46:17):
they collapsed. Anyway, I just had to get the Cracker
Bartrel of off my chest.
Speaker 3 (46:23):
I'm out of time here. I got to get out
of here. I will be off next week. I'm not
sure who's.
Speaker 2 (46:29):
Gonna co host or gonna host actually for me, but
I have to. We're gonna be on vacation. We're gonna
be out West Montana, Wyoming, Yellowstone, Idaho.
Speaker 3 (46:38):
I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (46:39):
Can't wait to tell you all about it. So make
sure you tune in no matter what, and always have
it down in your Google calendar. Saturday's four o'clock Rob
ask Reno Show. All right, so thanks again. I will
be back a week from the two weeks from today.
Enjoy your Saturday night, enjoy your weekend, and chow for now,
take care.
