the great programming we produce.

(01:33):
I produce. So anyway, the voice of reason
is next to me and Coach Human. Yeah.
So we are going to talk about the historic ceasefire that just
came to fruition between President Trump, the Middle East

(01:54):
involving Iran and, you know, is, is Israel.
You know, that's it's a pretty big deal there.
Yeah, well, we talked about it last week and, you know, Iran
was was upset or Israel was upset that Iran may had nuclear
weapons pointed at them. No, that's not what it was.

(02:15):
You're making a big mistake right off the bat.
It's not Iran. It's Iran.
Iran. Iran.
OK, the Iman of Iran. When you say Iran, all I think
of is a Flock of Seagulls and Iran.
Iran so far away? Well, there's, they're, they're
calling it the 12 day war, right?
You know, it's the end of the 12day war.
Of course, Iran says it won't won't back down until Israel

(02:41):
stops first. Dave, do you see this happening?
Knowing that you're Judy, you know you're part Jewish, I know
you're born again, but you're still.
Is it born? Is it born again Jew?
You still have. Judaism is in you.
It's in you. I mean, you're probably
uncircumcised. So let's go.
I'll. Play Frank.

(03:03):
What Frank Circumcised Ding. Ding Ding, another gay moment.
Yeah, Steve College. Steve, he is the circumcision.
That's just pointing out a gay fact that's a mere.
Fact. The closet is not big enough for
Steve to walk. Out of it.
That's a mere fact. Jewish people don't get
circumcised or no, they they do.They're called.

(03:25):
British dude called the Brisk. They're the brisks.
The Brisks. Yeah.
Are you are you circumcised? Yeah, I'm circumcised.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm So you're Jewish?
No, I'm Catholic, but I I got circumcised.
I didn't want to have an anti either.
So, you know, this, this 12 day thing, it was a pretty big war,
caused a lot of attention, a lotof attraction.

(03:46):
People were pissed about it. Do you see what?
Was pissed. About it, Oh, I mean Americans,
the left, you know? Left the far, far, far right.
The communist, you know, Bernie Sanders, you know, Matthew
McConaughey, George Clooney, a lot of people.
Yeah, Matthew McConaughey, George Clooney, all those people

(04:09):
were angry. So do you think that we we are
seeing like this is going to happen, like this is going to be
the end? The end of what I ran, it's not
going to be the end. This will.
No, the war? You asked.
Fuck the war. Is it going to be the end of the

(04:30):
war? Well, first of all, hold.
On Is there going to be a ceasefire?
I think there may be, yeah. Isn't that what they just said
to happen? Yes.
But do you think it's going to last?
Do you think that it's going to last long term?
Any of these ceasefires. Last they they last like every
10 years. Then they work, they go to work,
and I know this. The hope, the hope is that it

(04:53):
will start to get negotiations. The the the Ayatollah is on the
run, right? Yeah.
Or hiding or wherever he is. Yeah, he's got.
He's got a nice beard though, I'll give him that.
I the regime change is going to be.

(05:13):
Yes, if. There is regime if, if there is
regime if it may not be regime change.
But if there becomes regime change, you know, the question
becomes what regime is it? You don't know.
And then if there's not regime change, OK, And it's the
Ayatollah or one of the other, what they call them the mullahs.

(05:38):
Yeah, the mullahs. If it's one of the other mullahs
that are the, the become the leader, then you know, you're
going to see I Iran possibly tryto continue to figure out a way
to get nuclear war capabilities.Now the United States wants and,

(06:02):
and, and I'm sure Israel's OK with it, Iran to focus more on
nuclear capabilities to help their people, meaning energy at
nuclear warheads. So right, that's where, you
know, people are always like, oh, how, how does this keep

(06:24):
happening? That's what happens.
Iran says we're going to use it to make energy and then they
make a warhead. You.
Can't trust you can't. Trust that statement so no
United States under Trump because obviously Trump is going
to be 4 years and hopefully we have a conservative like Vanson

(06:44):
or somebody like that I. Think he'll write an executive
order and get his way for eight years?
Can't do that? Well, he he can do whatever he
wants. No, he can't do that.
He'll wait for. What he'll?
Find a way. Another four years of election.
That's. He'll he'll write an executive
order, but it's. It's like it's going to be
Vance, It's going to get any guys running.
It's going to be Vance. It's it's going to be.
Either Vance DeSantis. Rubio, Rubio is one of those

(07:08):
three guys are going to be the the, you know.
I don't understand why he can't.Roll.
Why can't he write an executive order?
Because that's that that has been put in in stone in
legislation. So.
But that would have to. Be Congress?
No, it wasn't before. There.
No, you're right, it wasn't. It was just the Congress would
have to change that law, and that will never happen.
You don't think they will? Especially with him in office,

(07:29):
there's not, there's no love forhim in office.
No, I know. Well, he's doing.
I think I think what you're seeing here right now is I'll be
very surprised. I know that Trump made this
announcement and said, you know,12 day war and we're going to
they'll still keep firing rockets at each other until this
this is signed number one. But I'll be surprised if in this
treaty, peace treaty, that the Ayatollah would still be allowed

(07:54):
to be in, in, in charge. That, that whole, I, I said that
I think you, they would have to,they would have to eliminate
the, the, the heads of, of the religious state and get them out
of politics for the treaty to besigned.
I can't see that being signed byIsrael or Donald Trump.
My, my thing is, this is never about nuclear weapons.

(08:17):
I'll still say it to this day. This, this whole fight, argument
bombing, it's never about nuclear weapons.
It's not bottom line. This is about Israel months ago,
Netanyahu meeting with Donald Trump, OK, met with Donald Trump
and he probably told us, President Trump, we're fighting
wars on all sides. We're fighting Hezbollah on the

(08:37):
north. We're fighting Hamas in the
South. We're fighting missiles from
Yemen, from the Houthis. Yeah.
Kuwait, and I think we mentionedthis last week's show too.
We've got to finish this off andto stop all these all these
proxies. The one who said this?
Is I don't want that. I was going to said this, to
stop the proxies, we have to cutoff the money.

(08:59):
The money is coming from Iran, Iran.
So Iran, Iran's funding, all these proxies to go after not
only the Israelis, but also other sects of Arab groups that
are out there that that don't agree with them and don't fit
into their their thought process.
So the way to cut off the money is to overthrow the government.

(09:22):
And that's what Tyler said. Tyler said they needed a less
fundamentalist government. Right.
But what, what my, my theory is,if my theory is if the, if this
religious driven administration for Iran does not leave, then I
think you're going to see, you're going to see a, a civil

(09:42):
uprising funded by the CIA and the Mossad, correct.
So they'll start pouring in millions of dollars to to.
Fund one side or the. Other.
No, no, not one side or the other.
To fund the Iranian to to fund the Iranian youth that would
organize to try to overthrow thegovernment.
Exactly. Right.
And tie it to to our political top political correspondents

(10:04):
credit Tyler King. He said that he said Elon wanted
it. We want a more or less
fundamentalist government in place there, right?
So he he was correct, sure in his assessment.
Dave, what are your thoughts on the situation?
Do you think that Elon will backdown?

(10:25):
Do you think they'll adhere to the ceasefire?
Do you think that peace will eventually get signed in into
treaty, into paper, pen to paper, and it will end?
That's. Or do you think it's just lip
service right now? I I think there'll be a time

(10:47):
period that it will be able to happen.
I think if there is regime change, possibly the toughest
part is we don't know exactly how the people of Iran feel

(11:09):
because, yeah, you know, if you look at the, if you look at the
streets, they're protesting against America.
But we don't. You also know that that's
obviously going to be allowed. They're not going to be able to
protest against Iran. So it's not like America where
we allow everyone to protest against us.

(11:31):
So. We we, we fly them in.
We fly them in or Sal. You want to hate us?
Go ahead. What flag are you sporting
today? All right, The the the flag of
of the island of the Arctics. Perfect.
But I mean you, you have to be surprised at the speed at which
this has happened. Yeah, I am.

(11:53):
That's a good point. So.
Last week, he was. Tired.
First of all, Israel, OK, And Israel in America, the
anti-Semitism in America. Oh, Christie's on.
Christie says hello and he says a lot of frauds in MAGA exposed
who doubled supreme? Trump said he was going to start

(12:17):
World War 3. So.
So what you say is that. Christie.
I love Christie. The level of the it's, I mean,
you go on, actually, you can seeit, but the level of
anti-Semitism even. In America, it's outrageous.
It's outrageous. So you have, you have.

(12:37):
But I, I actually agree with that.
The The Real Mag has stayed on Trump's side through this
course. And some, Christie said.
The false mag is the the, you know, people who are with Trump
only when it's. Convenient for them, the Steve.

(12:59):
Bannon's and the Tucker. Carlson's, Steve Bannon's and
the Tucker. Carlson Well, I'll, I'll go.
I'll go right on the left. What about the Hannity guy?
The Hannity's great. He's off for He's off for
Donald. Trump.
Ben's great. Hannity's great.
Bill Keeler. Who?
Who? No, no, no, I said radio.

(13:20):
Host listen, Tucker Carlson fraud, Alex Jones fraud.
Those guys are fraud, frauds. You're saying Tucker Carlson is
a fraud, Tucker? Carlson has shown his true
colors. He's a fraud.
Absolute fraud. He's not.
He's Tucker Carlson. You know, he's for himself.

(13:41):
Yeah. Alex Jones, you know, he's for
himself. Absolutely frauds.
Or the fraud? Then they tried.
They thought it was their moment.
They thought this was their moment.
Yeah, Tucker Carlson took his swing.
He absolutely did, Tucker. Carlson took a swing.
They tried. He tried the line with Alex
Jones. They did and they took the date
and and their frauds kick him out of the kick.

(14:05):
In the. Middle East too if they want.
I'm playing dumb here. I thought Tucker Tucker liked
Trump. You're telling me he does not
like Trump? No, he's a fraud.
He's a fraud. He likes him when it's convened.
Exactly what he what he thinks he should do.
And Tucker Carlson don't know shit from Shiola.

(14:27):
He doesn't know anything. But he's on TV every night.
He has insider access. He don't know.
Shit, then why? Is he on TV?
He's not on TV. Shit against.
The. Wall and see if it's next.
I thought Tucker's on fox every.Online.
No, no, no, he got done. Oh, he got fired from Fox.
OK, he used to be then he used to be on with Hannity.
He. Was going with the whole Russia

(14:49):
is good theory on Fox. That's why Fox basically was
like. But Russia's not good.
Russia hit bombed Ukraine. Yeah, but he was, he was saying
almost like Russia was in the right.
You know it was. That's yeah.
I mean the whole that's that's the whole is.
Is a different complicated issue, yes, a different thing.

(15:12):
But like he was, he was doublingdown.
That's why he got let go of. Fox isn't.
That crazy. The he doubled the dynamic.
Yeah, the dynamics of politics. That's so crazy.
So the dynamics of politics. So, you know, everyone follows
someone like, yeah, it's great. And then all of a sudden maybe
not every policy goes the way you want it.
Like no. I'm.
Going to break off these terrible next.

(15:33):
Guy no, I'm out of here too. No, I can't do it.
I don't understand it because I don't.
No matter what political affiliation you have, no matter
what centrist or far left or farright you are, you're not going
to get everything. No, you're just not.
You're. Not going to get.
Everything. Unless you have a dictator, then
you'll get everything. No, you don't.

(15:54):
Here's the hardest. I think a dictator could work.
Here's where this is where people who have true hatred for
Israel, OK, and, and in some cases, maybe most cases, it's
some form of anti-Semitism, but they will support a dictatorship

(16:15):
that oppresses people. Yes.
Over democracy that allows people to speak freely.
Right. It's it's, it's, it's mind
blowing. And and they will support a
country just because they dislike, they dislike Israel.
They will support a country thatthreatens death to America just

(16:39):
because they dislike. So to me this is this is let's
take let's take the fact they'reprobably anti-Semitic or have
some to begin with. Let's take that out.
Let's just use democracy. Let's let's not even let's just
say country A is a democracy andcountry B threatens death to

(16:59):
America. You don't know the names of that
country. Which country is more likely to
be your ally? Ally, You know, country A, not
country B, who says death to America?
So that that's the, the, the, the some of these people have
gone so crazy, so crazy that they will side with the group

(17:20):
that chants death to America. It's absurd.
It's, I mean, look. It's it's ignorant.
It's very, very ignorant. Excuse me Sir, before you kill
me, I just want to say I love you.
It's just saying it's so ignorant.
Basically that's what I. Don't like the ignorance behind?
How they treat? How?

(17:41):
How can? You be so dumb how?
Women, how? Any woman, you know, women
always say, oh, your support Trump, Your massage is, yeah,
you know what? All you women are out in the
streets right now protesting against Israel, protesting and
supporting Iran, waving Iran. It aren't even flags.
They can't even dress in Iran. And you, you have to become are
you supporting that that that that progressively terroristic

(18:05):
regime that doesn't allow listen, women are so oppressed
in that country because of the religious laws.
They're slaves. It's it's it's beyond belief at
what then you can go look it up.You can.
You can do regular Iranian womentalking about the persecutions
they have to go through in theirhome home country, their native

(18:25):
country that the people in this country, in America don't even
understand. They would.
Have no clue they're. Cheering on that country like
this is fantastic. Yes, we gotta support them.
The people are great. Yeah, well, the people are the
ones that they're holding their own people down.
Wow, this is. How crazy the people are,
they're gonna the guy who's the leading candidate now for New
York City. He's he's a he's a he's a

(18:48):
listen. It's a lunacy.
He's a Muslim. His his thought process and
these young. Kids are we we we have someone
in new. York City Who's a Muslim or
what's he running? What's he running for?
He's running for me. Here Communist.

Here's what he did. We got to go.

(19:09):
We got to go get. Away from new.
York City mayor, you have no, noinfluence on that.
So. Bottom line.
Adams, Adams, you know, there are things he does well.
There are things he doesn't do well.
I mean, comparing Adams to this Adams is like, would be the, the

(19:29):
way that people think in New York City and other places that
are just out of whack. I, I, I if they put you in a
room and they were arguing with me and they would be telling me
that, you know, they would call me, I would be called a Zionist.
Yeah, I would be called a What'sa Zionist?

(19:50):
They would be. They would call me a misogynist.
I need to know what a Zionist is.
A Jewish supporter that's. A Israel.
Israel support, I'm sorry. That's a good thing.
You you're you should support Israel.
Israel as AI have to look it up exactly.
What? Oh, you're, you're like an
extremist. Israel support?

(20:12):
No, no, it's it's like that Israel should be the the Free
State of Israel or Jewish state.Like they use it to try and like
make believe. Yeah, anyway, but they would
call you 9000 different names. And meanwhile, like if you went

(20:33):
over to Iran under Iran under current regime and maybe even
the comments we we make where we're joking around about
something. You mean gay?
If they suspected you. If they suspected you as being.

(20:53):
Gay. Yeah, being gay, they would
throw you off a roof. Yep.
I mean, well, they they try. I'm bigger than all of them, so
I fucked them in the air. Well, they.
Never had a hard time. Moving you?
Yeah, there's just. Yeah, there's the gay tendency
again. Oh, I'm saying if they think I'm
gay, I'll give it to them hard. Yeah.
And then I'll. Throw.
That's fantastic. No, you just have to.
You just have to realize right now the New York City election

(21:15):
or, or what's that? It's a primary.
How young is he? He's in his.
I think he's in his 30s, late 30s.
God, wow. If I'm correct, yeah.
He's that young. Young.
So. He's young.
He's not like, really young. Right young for a Politician 37.
He wants to have public grocery stores in New York City.

(21:36):
He's actually he's 36. Food rationing, yeah.
He's, I mean. He's 33 years old.
That's communism Public gross. Yeah.
He wants to have public grocery stores run by the state.
I've run by the city. That's yeah, where?
People get cheaper, prices get guess how many steaks you'll be
able to get at. That store.
But that's communism. That's communist.

(21:57):
Well, guess what bread lines aregoing to be?
People are going to be around the clock.
Oh, we're out of bread today. Yeah, but here's, here's.
But here's what he's promising that the young people are.
They're just rallying around it.I mean, young people in their
20s, people in their 20s in New York City got to realize they
can't live in New York City in your 20s unless you're really
rigged. They.
Can't afford it, I understand. So, so he what he's done here

(22:19):
making affordability rent freeze, what he wants to he
wants to have a a citywide rent freeze so that you can't as a
landlord raise right? You can't raise your rent right.
OK. Well, and they can.
Subsidized free busing right andfree childcare.
Get a free bus and free free childcare right and to open like
you talked about those city run functions.
I want to move to New York City then, right?

(22:41):
Also, what he wants to do is he want, I know, I know without the
fact I saw an interview, I, I watched a little bit of it.
In his interview, he said he wants to defund the Police
Department up to $1 billion. That's smart.
I mean, it's a, it's a police are bad.
It's a $6 billion a year budget for the police.
Department he wants to take away.
He wants to take away almost 20%of that, yeah.
All they do. Is write and they want to and

(23:01):
they want to go back and put in those.
We talked about those therapists.
Yeah. Counselors and social mental
health. Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, they'll, they'll be in. So he's got about a $10 billion.
He's got a good plan. He he wants to increase the
taxes on the rich, obviously on the corporations.
You got to tax the rich. That's a lot of them.
Yeah, exactly. He he also wants to do gender

(23:22):
affirming care, $65 million in taxpayers.
Under with the gender affirming.Yeah, yeah, yeah.
For trans patients, you know what I mean?
Including minors, Minors under 18 you need a surgery or you
need the. Gender affirming, Absolutely.
So if I say that I'm a female atthat's gender affirming care and

(23:43):
my surgery will be paid for. Yeah, absolutely.
If you want to change your change your gender, absolutely.
He wants to, you know, he wants to put it on.
He's. Very radical.
He needs to have a city office dedicated to the LGBT community.
A city office. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
absolutely. People support this guy.
Yeah, they love the young one. Now here's here's the thing.
Well, because young people. Andrew Cuomo Andrew Cuomo is

(24:05):
also running for the mayoral slot as well.
Oh, he's making a comeback. Yeah, he's gotta go.
I He should win. He's, he's the, he's the
national. Grouper.
Well, he's like Wiener. Wiener ran.
Yeah. So he's almost won.
What? What's happening now is there's
a cap of, I think $8 million in the New York City mayoral
election you can raise through funds and through all donations

(24:27):
and bring. So you need to donate to unless
you have. Unless you have money coming
from PACs from organizations outside that.
So Cuomo has. What's a PAC?
It's a political active committee.
So, so the committee. People that raises money, right?
OK, and so and So what they done.
So now Andrew Cuomo is taking inmillions, taking in millions

(24:49):
from these packs where Zarin doesn't have it.
And now he's trying to get the rule changed where he that he
can't use the money or can raise.
Money, I mean, it's only fair, yeah, but should get a change
but. What my, my thing is this it's
it's too much of A pipe dream, number one, that all these
things are going to come true for all these young people are.
Going through 2026 it. Doesn't it?

(25:10):
Doesn't It's too. It's too much.
Yeah. Too soon.
It can't happen in a city like New York City.
You can't flip the switch on that, OK?
No, it takes long. It takes a long, long time.
No, that's a lot #2. And I'm again, I'm going to
sound maybe I'm signing, I'm sounding religiously racist.
Well, you are so. But bottom line, if if there is
a radical Muslim OK in office inNew York City, you will see New

(25:33):
York City slowly develop into how the rest of Europe has
developed in large cities like London and large cities like
Stockholm, so and and and and Berlin.
But that was their plan. I guess I think.
They plan to come over procreate, but.
It's not our own. No not procreate.
What I'm saying is they they instill lacks liberal laws both

(25:55):
on the political side, social side, socioeconomic and on the
law enforcement to. Get their people.
That allows, that allows communities of Muslims to form
right, right, and to actually segregate that community for
just Muslims and it becomes an actively militant community.
And, and what the, and they're trying to spread the, the, the,

(26:17):
their religion, the Sharia law, even even even just, if it's not
Sharia, they're trying to spreadtheir beliefs, okay, to every
person they can. And, and I think that's what
this country, if this country thinks well.
Mormons. Do they?
Need to be afraid. We need to be afraid of this
country, other. Than agree we.
Don't need to be afraid of We don't need to be afraid of

(26:38):
pollution or gas or the wild global warming or.
The wild we. Need to be afraid of something
that is going to start to spreadinto this country that will
affect how we. Believe we believe in freedom,
The largest country. Because there is no freedom or
train of thought that you could have that would be supported

(26:58):
anymore. If there's a Muslim majority,
OK, that pervades. So you're.
Telling me that there could be aMuslim majority in New York City
right now. I'm not saying right now get to
that. I'm not, I'm, I'm saying these
are the small steps that they'retaking and I'm not, I'm not
listen, could a, can a Muslim bea New York City mayor?
I I think without a doubt kind of radical.

(27:19):
Muslim there was a changeless. No, I disagree.
No, that cannot happen to New York City.
No, and that will happen to New York City if he's elected.
You will see, you'll see more ofa Minnesota OK, run, run, run
city. Oh, OK.
And then and again, I'm soundingracist.
I'm sounding looking for a religion on the bus and I'm not,
I'm just telling you. But that's what's going to

(27:41):
happen. The blueprints are.
There, yeah, we've seen it. Europe is the blueprint.
Those who don't see history are deemed to repeat it.
There was a guy who had that. Europe is the blueprint right
now throughout every country in Europe, OK and?
The frauds and MAGA OH a lot of frauds in MAGA exposed who

(28:04):
doubted supreme Trump and he wasgoing to start World War three
that's. The same 1 you just read.
Oh, OK, so all right, it came upagain.
Europe is a blueprint, Dave. We've seen this.
We've seen how each country in Europe has progressed to
welcoming immigrants in by the 10s of thousands to millions,

(28:25):
1,000,000 millions to to allowing those said immigrants
to be able to almost set up their own state of law in in
their neighborhoods. They stay.
They. Where where police now are
afraid to even go in. Because they say they're
sovereign nations. They're sovereign.
That's not the case though. The case is that they they want
to keep everyone out. That's not them, right?

(28:47):
OK, so now you're having pockets, large pockets of
corruption, violence, because they're third world.
They're third world and they're used to different governing
laws. They're used to no laws.
They're used to doing what they want.
They used to Sharia law. You want to grab a girl by the
ass? It's totally fine, right?

(29:09):
You want. You own them.
You want to rape, You want to rape your wife.
Totally fine, right, Right. So, and I'm just putting small
examples out there, but this is what's happening throughout
Europe. We already had the blueprint to
look at. There's a rise now.
Coming here. There's a rise now in in
nationalism. Nationalist groups all
throughout Europe. The Neo Nazis are rejoining and

(29:30):
regrouping in in Germany. I'm the neo.
Nazis. They're true.
That's true. I'm telling you right now,
that's true. You're seeing pockets of, of, of
white resistance now building upto defy, okay, to defy the way
they that they have been invadedover the last 15 to 20 years in
their in their homelands. England, especially England, has

(29:53):
risen up to the point where theyhave great support throughout
the country as far as curbing oror stopping immigration.
What about that Tony Blair guy? Now Tony Blair said nothing to
do with it. There's, I forget the guys name
of that. I want to say it's Robinson who
leads the the Nationalist party or or group that is sort of anti

(30:15):
immigration, anti Muslim in in abig way.
Not, not, not anti Muslim for the religion, not anti Muslim
for the religion, but for the way that they implement their
tactics throughout their neighborhoods and are slowly but
surely taking over English land to where it's not English land
anymore. It will be Muslim land.

(30:36):
These are these are listen, these are facts.
I'm not making anything up. No.
Each, each country in Europe, scary.
Each country in Europe is going through this right now, and each
country in Europe is on a teetering point.
They're on a tipping point, okay.
It could go one way or one it could.
Go 1 where they preserve the nationality of their country and
and integrate those immigrants. See, the problem is these

(30:57):
immigrants don't want to be immigrant.
No, they they're fundamentalist.They don't, they don't want to
be integrated. They want to come in and do what
they want and they don't want toabide by the laws and the rules
of, of the country that they're in.
And that's what's slowly going to seep into this country if we
continue to elect people to elected positions right where
they have the capability of, of,of restructuring, retooling the

(31:19):
law, retooling the thought process, retooling the
systemation of of living in those in the communities that
they control. So is this something that that
that Griffo will be able to speak on?
I don't know, you know, I don't know how far Joe gets into this.
He's a state senator. He gets into a lot of, you know,
Central New York. His, his, his region, the
positive region. Granted he fights for statewide

(31:41):
budgets. Obviously, we could propose it
to him. I'll bring it up to him.
I'll see what his thoughts are. Curious.
As a politician, this is scary. To me as a politician, he's not
going to be able to come out andsay what we say here.
No, he's can't, because he can't.
He's not going to keep everyone happy.
He has. He has to be in the public eye.
He has to serve the entire public, not just one segment of

(32:01):
it. Right, But, but if, if, if I'm
totally wrong in this, I apologize.
I may be off. I'm not.
I'll tell you right now. I'll tell you right now and
looking at it and if you and I'mbeing honest, I'm being
truthful. I'm not pulling out.
No, I know this has. Happened in Europe, I know it
happened. And and it's it's happening here
too, in smaller pockets in certain sections of this

(32:22):
country. It's starting to get and I don't
care what it looks like. Listen to don't you, I go to
Atlanta, I'm a I'm a minority inAtlanta.
I don't. Care.
I don't care, Dave. I mean, do you think, do you, do
you think this carries water? Does this worry you?

(32:43):
Does this concern you? The the concern Muslim
fundamentalists could gain this much power.
Yeah, yeah, I'm surprised by that.
New York City, Yeah, but not surprised, obviously.
I mean, you see the level of. Protesting and everything.
We're stupid. We're stupid.

(33:03):
New York. City is not New York City that I
lived in in 2000. No, OK, It it's not the same
place. It's not the same place even.
It's not a melting pot. 15 yearsago.
It's not the same place. No, it's no.
So it's a different. It's a different demographic,

(33:24):
it's a different age group. COVID changed it a lot.
Yeah, and the cost the livings way up and it's just not a good
place. It's not the place it once was.
There's just it just, you know. But that's that's really, that's
really concerning that all this could transpire within a year

(33:47):
that this man could be. Power people who used to live in
New York City, in Staten Island,in Brooklyn, in Queens, that may
have been able to fight against this stuff that may have been,
you know, there's not that many conservatives in in in your
city. But we're more middle of the

(34:08):
road. They are gone.
They have moved. They have left.
They do not live in New York City anymore.
So what's left is, yes, people who can afford it, who are
massively wealthy in Manhattan, OK, young people who are living
with five other people, That's that's who live there.

(34:31):
Those are pretty easy. They're very easy to radicalize.
That's right. That's just reality.
That's very easy to radicalize those people.
They hang out in coffee shops and have no direction, play
video games and, and then and then you have people who have
lived in New York City their whole entire life that are much
older. And, you know, maybe they live

(34:52):
in Brooklyn, maybe they live in Staten Island and they they're
not, they're not out there fighting politically against
these kind of groups. So, so that's what you have and
New York City is a, is a different place because of that.
It's, you know, when people go into the city now, people,

(35:16):
people used to work and live there.
That used to be a, that was a big thing.
Now a lot of it is people commute in there and get the
hell out, right. So that's, you know, and, and
that's changed your state now. That's what creates a vacuum of
opportunity, a vacuum of opportunity that allows a

(35:37):
fundamentalist group to come in because you don't have the same
type of people that are still inthere.
Just like there are vacuums of opportunity out in Michigan, you
know, out in Minnesota and thoseopportunities where they were

(36:01):
either very depressed areas or vacuums of leadership where
they're very soft like in Minnesota and whole communities
got taken over. And that became an opportunity
for large groups of, of, of people to move in.
And then you get some radicals that end up being a part of that

(36:22):
group. And once you have a few radicals
that are a part of the group, even if the whole lot is 90% of
the lot is not radical. If if you once that starts to
spread it, it, it becomes a thing where like you see in
Minnesota, like I mean, if you saw some of these people are
covered. Like once that ideology, let's

(36:44):
think about it. If you're a man, OK, and you're
a Muslim man and your wife is nolonger has a say in what she has
to do, but under Sharia law and she's your property and and you
could leverage the religion for that, You know, you could, you
could, you could, they're just very little that women can do

(37:07):
in, in, in that, in that situation.
And the men and the men absorb all the power because it becomes
an ego thing. Many years.
I listen one of my for when I used to travel all over the
country, my driver was a a a Muslim guy and he I love he was
a great guy. But I very respectful.

(37:30):
Very respected. He was a great driver.
Me and him used to have the greatest conversations.
OK, and we would talk about all this stuff.
This is long before it was really, I mean, it was obviously
there's always issues in the Middle East, but but long before
the whole like this whole movement, unlike against Israel
and what kind and and he was he was he was against Israel.

(37:53):
We used to discuss this stuff. We would discuss it like openly
He would. He'd be driving me, drive me two
hours. But he wouldn't take it
personal. You could have an open
discussion with him. Personal, but he was I knew that
he he wasn't a bad guy, you knowwhat I mean?
So it wasn't like he wasn't going to go and do any.
But I remember his wife. This was this is, this is my

(38:14):
point. His wife came over from, I can't
remember where she was from, maybe it was Egypt, but she came
over and he was, he would tell me that she was Americanized and
it was driving him crazy. He would tell you this.
Yes, he would tell me it and he's like, I don't know what to

(38:34):
do. Someone saying Trump 28USA USA
they I agree with you, Trump should be in office.
Go ahead. But but you but I thought it was
interesting because it it, it bothered him a lot.
That. He felt like his wife should be
in line. He felt like his wife should be
in line. I I agree with him.

(38:55):
Honestly, if you like fundamentally he was a good guy,
right, OK, but but the IU systemthat has taught him on the Koran
was he was struggling with it. I.
Would. I can't imagine talking to.
Me about it like I I I try not to give him honestly any
opinion. I just tried to.
You can't. I just tried to listen to to him
and, you know, and, and I didn'twant him to like.

(39:16):
Whatever he says, baby. Whatever he says.
When Iran, you know, if you're, if you're a female, you can't be
a judge if you're, you can't even vote if you're a female.
I think if you're a female, theybelieve, and Iranian men believe
that you have half a brain. This is coming from an Iranian
woman that I watched interviewing.

(39:37):
That's true. Half a brain.
So let's say you witness a murder, you're a woman.
You can't testify. No, you can.
You have to bring two other women there to be able to back
your story. Robbery, because you don't.
You only have half a brain. If that's a guy, if the man
witnesses it, then all he has todo is testify and he's all set.
Because again, women are devalued.

(39:57):
You're right there. They are property they don't
have, right? They don't have.
The fundamental rights. To the same.
Cost of any cost of what? What rights that they have in
this country so. And it wouldn't have taken much
to radicalize the guy who was mydriver in a sense that he was.
He was there. He was, he was a nice guy.
He struggled with the values of America versus the values that

(40:21):
he's taught in, in Islam, right.And he would struggle it and he
would talk to me, 'cause he was asking, 'cause I was obviously
an American. You know what I mean?
Yeah. So he, you know, and he was
trying to like live in the the world of America where these two
things are conflicting. That's right.
What they're? They won't survive, Dave.

(40:41):
They'll, they'll come to this country in, in groups, They will
not survive because they will not abide by our beliefs.
And then and when that happens, that's when you're going to see
conflict. And that's what worries me.
That's what I see that is. Scary.
I see the rest I, I see this coming.
I see this developing now in this country.
I think we're the last bastion of society to be able to prevent

(41:02):
this. I think what Trump has done to
slow down the, the, the, the, the thought process of how DEI
really works or how, how liberalpolicies really were.
All the guy was doing a good job.
Well, no, I'm not. No, no, no.
When you, when you, when everyone deserves an

(41:23):
opportunity. But if you think, if you think
that, if you think that you're not getting opportunities now
every OK, let's talk education. Every child has an opportunity.
Every child goes to school, right?
Some do, yeah. Some do.
Who doesn't? What child does?
It mean some parents don't. Really stand other kids, other
kids. So if the kids but is that is
that anyone's fault besides the parent or the kid?

(41:44):
I I think it's the SO. Everyone, everyone has a fair
playing field coming in here. Yeah, yeah.
You know, if you don't take advantage.
Of it, yeah. No, there's the public school
for every if you want to. Go now public school versus
private school or versus charterschool, I can understand there
are differences there and that needs to be addressed in a way
where it, it brings the level ofeducation up higher.

(42:05):
But bottom line, everyone has that opportunity.
Well, now what they do with thatopportunity, OK, that's another
story. And and that is that is much
more difficult to control. So things can't be implemented
just just by flipping a switch. But my, my, my thing was that
this is that it, there will be if, if it, if it comes to this
country and this thought processof devaluing in this thought

(42:27):
process of, of religious law holds gets clawed to this
country. This will be a national struggle
that we will see for years. And you will see the rise of, of
right wing conservative activists that will not take
shit because they're not going to change their way of life for

(42:49):
someone else. If someone else can come here
and adapt to our way of life, we're not going to adapt to
their way of life by them comingin from the outside.
And that's, that's the, that's the scary part of what I think
is coming down the road for us. Yeah, I think it's really scary.
So Raul Havana is saying while Trump was working at McDonald's,

(43:11):
Kamala was doing Five Guys. Raul Havana says, like the kid
who graduated after missing 400 days and failed every class,
wasn't that that No Child Left Behind deal that Bush passed?
Yeah. So you, you, you, you had to
pass. They couldn't leave you behind.

(43:32):
Yeah, well, that again. That was Bush.
That was Bush's. Deal.
But that falls into a category of why is that law there?
That law does not need to be there.
Well they they didn't want like 25 year old still in high
school. But that's, that's, that that's
the, the parents and the child'sproblem.

(43:52):
That's not the schools. The the school OK, if it's a
safe school, if it's a, a, a, a controlled school, OK.
And if it's a a school that has a good curriculum, that's all
that needs to be provided. After that, it's got to be up to
the parents and the child. Yeah, well, of course the
parents have to take charge. So.

(44:14):
So if they don't and the child doesn't graduate or doesn't go
to class, that's not the school's problem.
So let me ask you this. I I know that Cutler's
graduating shortly from Hartford.
Sure. Is there anything for anyone
from New Hartford who's not graduating?
Yes. Oh, you do know?
Yes, Yep, there's a few. There's a few.
Yep, there's a few. We're talking 5 actually.

(44:35):
Yeah, not many, but actually a few that left school would come
back, got their GED. Oh, oh, you know.
So just they. They did get their GED.
In the in the same in their senior year, there's nobody.
They were gone before the that. I don't know.
I can't. I can't guarantee I know all of
that, but I do know some kids that actually had to come back
and finish just to get their GEDbecause they had left school,
whether for whatever reasons they be, but they don't like it,

(44:56):
right? Like school that.
Was built for school. No school's tough.
Not everyone's been made to get bullied and no no but it's not
even that there's transgenders and I know I know guys that were
shitty in school OK grade wise in their classes.
Yeah, they do great. But when when they put something
together, they can see it in twoseconds mechanically,
absolutely, they have an incredible.

(45:17):
Way you said trade schools are. Deficient they are.
We need. We need.
People doing it, but. And I can't put shit together.
I can. I can break it, I can knock it
down, I can shovel it away, but I can't put shit together.
I can't do. And and so every person has a
value and now it doesn't have tobe a college educated value.
OK, that's overrated. I don't have.

(45:38):
Value. But every person has a value.
Every person has a place in society.
Every person can be successful. I can start the podcast if they
if they. Well, they can be successful in
something if they get the right.If they get the right at a
party. Yeah, there's a party.
I know. That's what I'm saying.
There's there's. If there's the right, everyone
can be successful at a party, let's put it that way.

(46:00):
Yeah, but it's just scary to me that this suppertime is good.
Man, suppertime is good. Is the reality of this happening
in 2026? Yeah, this Islamic
fundamentalist. It's here.
It's on the doorsteps. It's here.
Like is he in the lead right nowpolling wise?
Well, he right now it's a primary the the primary.
So the trying to see in the legal polls.

(46:22):
No, but it well. And he's a Democrat, not?
There's it's early voting right now, but early voting turn out
has been huge. Yeah, because it's so.
Early voting turn out has been huge.
This is kind of a good sign for him.
Yeah, because that's how you canfabricate the.
Votes, right? Well, no, they're not going to
fabricate votes on this. They're going to go by voting
and it's going to be, it's goingto be on the up and up.
Five hours ago. I don't know, You know, these

(46:44):
polls are always obviously hard to behave, but merchant Paul
said as Mamdani naked almost slightly ahead in the first
round. OK.
Oh, so but but but Cuomo's the Democrat, right?

(47:07):
Neck and neck. What what they're doing is
they're ranking, yeah, they're ranking their candidates one
through 6 or whatever, seven. I think there's, I think there's
actually 10 or 12, but I think there's only 5 or 6 that matter.
So they go in this primary and they have to rank their
candidates as to who they would want first, second, third, 4th,
5th in that, in that order. OK.
Yeah, I see, I see. Why?

(47:29):
Why are you grinning, Dave? I just see a grin on your face.
Look at there's a white man. You're grinning.
Color's the man. No, he is the man.
He is. He is.
Clout in the community. Color pulls more ass than a
toilet seat. What are you going to do in the
community? So you're basic.
Unity in the community, Dave. So you're basically in the
community. So you're basically saying that

(47:50):
Cuomo winning this election would be winning the primary
would be a surprise? No, no, no.
He's. Probably the favorite.
He's the. Favorite.
Correct. Good.
I'm saying the groundswell of support from the.
President right now, right? Now, right now, every young
voter. Wants.
To not put their support behind Cuomo.
No, they want the Muslim. Because they see him as a

(48:11):
grouper, they see him as a as a sexual abuser, just the tally.
They see him as a money bag guy.They see him as getting, Oh no,
that's not it. They see him as you know, as
getting funded. By big sexually.
Abused women? Sure he did.
You do? Absolutely.
They each grew up in everybody. Italians hugging fist.
No, that's how that's how we are, 1415 reports.

(48:31):
In cases it's like everybody else in charge, you get to the
top. Right.
No, I don't think I know, but when am I going to get to the
top? About never.
Bottom line, bottom line, the problem is like this.
AOCAOC has given well she she says bar.
Games for Palestine. Sure, that's big.
AOC has given a spark, she said.The young to the young radicals,

(48:51):
yes, who believe that their votecounts.
Most of the time their vote doesn't count.
Yeah. I don't believe my vote.
Because they're unorganized now they're starting to get some
organization together. Social media helps that.
It helps drive that. It helps organize and you.
Said that's what the Liberals dowell.
I think they do it very well. I.
Think and the The GOP does not do well.

(49:12):
I don't think, I think, I think Donald Trump did it very well
this time around. Yeah, he did it fantastically,
used it. But I think realistically, the
boomer GOP, the GOP doesn't get their message out.
Now Wesley Hunt, I think he getshis I, I like his message.
I like what's the, what's the guy's name from Florida, the
congressman Donald. Donald.

(49:33):
Donald or no, what's his name? Byron Donald.
Byron Donald. I like his message.
He gets it out there when he when he talks on social media,
when he talks in interviews and all that.
I don't think AOC can make a runand cake.
Well no I don't. I don't listen.
AOC will not. She can run for whatever office
she wants to hire than where sheis right now.

(49:54):
She's not going to win anything.No, she, she, she's just good.
I can't. Right.
And then that helps. But getting up on a podium, be
able to scream and yell and sortof take that young person's
mentality state is what she doesgreat.
And it's great for rallying the young troops, the young socially
active troops, the young liberaltroops, the ones that are coming

(50:15):
out of college. Is she supporting the Muslim
guy? Oh, without a doubt.
Oh wow, wow, a doubt. So she wants the Muslim guy?
Just quickly, I wanted to ask P Diddy his trial, it's going to
be coming to a close shortly, said P Diddy.
Is the defense is choosing not to call any witnesses.

(50:39):
They're most likely going to go into closing arguments and
whatever happens, happens. I think the prosecution
completely overcharged with the Rico charge.
I don't think it was a Rico charge.
The sex trafficking, I don't, I don't think that I think, you
know, if you want to go domesticviolence, that sort of thing,

(51:01):
fine. I, I thought Rico and sex
trafficking was over the line. I don't think it should have
been the federal court. I thought P Diddy called.
He did call. So he called Biggie Smalls,
Tupac, Little John. Did he call all those three of
those to come testify? Oh yeah, they were on.
They were on the witness list, sure.
Yeah, yeah. Oh, they were dead though.
Yeah, they're dead. They they couldn't make they
couldn't make it. But Dave, like I mean, P Diddy,

(51:24):
he's not not going to put on a defense.
Do you think I I know I know youprobably we've been what we've
been talking Karen Reed and God bless Karen Reed for getting
off. She deserves it.
David Dianetti. Alan Jackson.
Killed her husband. She didn't kill her.
Yeah, she did. No, she didn't.
She did. She did 100%.
That shows how much you know 1. 100% Robert and I see.

(51:44):
They did a fantastic job defending her.
How could she run him over when the medical examiner said she
was? He was not hit by a car.
Yeah, that's what the medical exam, the prosecution, the
prosecution medical examiner said he was not hit by a car.
Right, Right. Yep.
So what? What is she guilty of?

(52:05):
She ran him over. How?
How'd she run over that dead? She ran over how.
She ran him over. The medical medical examiner
does no shit. Well then it must be.
Phantom. He was in the must be he was.
He was in the snow for a while. It must be phantom.
It must be phantom. It froze all the bruises.
Would LeBron wear the maid's outfit if he had to testify?

(52:30):
Yeah, He he was asking if LeBronhad to wear the maid's off for P
Diddy. Yeah, for P Diddy.
Sure he would. I think LeBron would look good
in a maid's outfit. I mean, it'd be interesting to
see. I'd be shocked.
I mean dude, LeBron is is. Unless something scandalous
happens in the next 2-3 years, LeBron is the most stand up.
Yeah, he's a good. Human being that there is right

(52:50):
now. He family man never screwed
kids. His wife he he did.
Not screw up. He did it right.
I, I, I, I, I would be shocked if I had.
A lot of these people have gone to these.
I'm sure they don't know everything that's going on in
all there, but I'm sure the freak show goes on in the back
and there's a good handful of people that have been part of
it. Yeah.
And, and, and they, they've interviewed everybody.
They had to interview you. What's left to?
Do I mean, but PP did he actually?

(53:11):
I mean he didn't really do anything.
I mean, he just masturbated. What did he do wrong?
What did he do wrong? He masturbated.
What did he do wrong? He masturbated.
Right. What else did he do wrong?
Did he scare people he beat? He did beat up his girlfriend
and. That was that's why I'm saying
he should have been charged domestic violence.
Yeah, yeah. But then he forced people in
sort of the situations to be. They were paid escorts.
Well, no. Besides paid escorts, he forced
people in a way to hey, you get this or you're not going to go

(53:34):
here or there. I'm not going to.
I'm not going to promote your music or I'm not going to, yes.
He did. But is that extortion?
It's extortion. Is that like you telling me if I
don't get a bowl of sauce, the bucket of sauce that you know,
you're not going to, you're fired, you're not going to have
a job, you. Won't have a job sodomize, I
mean to go to that point, I mean.
That's what I'm saying you're. Not going to have a job.
No, but the point is P Diddy gotcompletely overcharged.

(53:57):
I do not think it was a federal Rico case.
I think it should have been domestic violence and that
should have been it. It's not sex trafficking.
The partners willingly did this stuff and they admitted it on
the stand. She, you know, the his mistress
or the girl he was hooking up with said that she did it cuz

(54:18):
she wanted to make him happy. So that's why I'm saying like,
Dave, do you have any thoughts on this?
I I know the freak offs there was baby oil and and semen and
and anal beads and all this stuff.
The issue is going to be proving.
The issue is going to be provingI.

(54:38):
Mean he he physically didn't do anything besides the beat down
of the girl where he kicked her a few times.
Well, more than a few times. I mean that.
But that that, that he was making, you know, rape or
whatever that that's going to bethe difficult.
I mean, I don't, I don't know how they're proving that.
Yeah, because there's nothing yet that's.

(54:59):
It's a, he said, she said. And you know, the rape charge, I
don't even know if he was necessarily charged with rape.
He was charged with sex trafficking and the Rico charge.
And I don't think it extended tothat.
I know it extended to different States and different hotels and
all that stuff, but I, I just thought it was way too much for

(55:23):
the prosecution to go. Is that?
Is that really? Is that really appropriate?
Bad boys for life is that? Appropriate is that.
Is that appropriate? Is that appropriate?
They're. Going to be playing.
This is a March up in the jail, Raul.
Havana got a Hummer? No, I'd like that.

(55:43):
I'd like to say Raul, Raul, Raul.
Havana got a Hummer from Levon Lebron's mom and Akron.
Good for you, Raul. I mean, on a scale of 1 to 10,
well, how would you rank it as aHummer?
Cuz I, you know, I don't know, Idon't think she would do it

(56:05):
properly. I I think she she would be
distracted. Prostitute at one point.
No, she wasn't. She wasn't a prostitute, was
she? Well, I I can't see.
I can't. See, you're giving mom.
No, she didn't give a good. Hummer, there's no way.
There's no way. I mean, I I definitely maybe a 2
out of 10. I would say all.

(56:25):
Right, this show is degenerated.No, it's not.
I mean it. Is who cares?
Well, we're talking about the P Diddy trial, Dave's yard.
I just wanted to make sure. That's all I wanted to make
sure. So the reality is this Islam guy
has very good shot of winning the program.
Islam guy. He says he he's Islamic

(56:46):
fundamentalist. He's, he's Muslim.
He's Muslim. Well.
Muslim, whatever. He's a.
He's a. Social fundamentalist right now,
but he's a communist with communist, but he has a lot of
issues that I feel are way behind, are way outside of the
boundaries of of what a a city and a mayor can provide.

(57:07):
So the way to do it, especially in New York City.
Does he have a 75% chance of winning the no?
OK. So it's closer to like 64 to
5050? No, I would, I, I, I mean, I
still think Cuomo wins. I think maybe he gets, he gets,
maybe he gets, you know, if it'sjust them two in a primary
running off, maybe he gets 3537%of those.
So. And and you would be happy if
Cuomo won. No, but I don't care.

(57:29):
I think it's, I just think it's,you know what I said that we
need to slow down the progression of, of, of a
religious and social movement that is going too fast in this
country and that is to one side in this country.
And and that that what, where they they bypass laws and and

(57:52):
rules that are in place in this country to keep the country.
Yeah, I just think we need to dictator, to be honest.
Yeah. Dave, I just wanted to ask you
quickly the Russia, Ukraine thing.
You know, Trump solved the Middle East, and that was great.
It's over. Does.
He have a chance to to fix Russia and Ukraine in the next

(58:13):
month or so you think? You think he'll turn his
attention towards it? I think he's, I think he's
turning it. He has.
I think this is a much more pressing issue.
Really. The.
The Iran, Israel issue is much more pressing than Russia,
Ukraine. I I didn't know that.

(58:35):
Well, you're talking, you're talking involvement of oil.
Right. You're talking involvement of of
a a country that this this country backs we back is.
We, we, we have to. Right.
And, and you're talking about terrorist organizations that, if
funded properly and supported properly, would be allowed to
expand over the next few years in the Middle East, which would

(58:57):
not be good for this country. No, no, it'd be devastating.
It'd be devastating. You know this country.
You know what, Dave? This country, we can't feed
everyone in this country. We can't house everyone.
We have shelters. We can't house everyone.
No, we can't provide medical coverage for everyone.
No, no, we definitely. Goddamn it, if you need someone
killed, you come to us. Yeah, well, we're we got, we got

(59:19):
good SEAL team. We will take care of it, whether
it be a 30, 1000 LB underground bomb or whether it would be a
hit squad we're. Above 300 right now.
That's pretty darn good for for just YouTube.
Yeah, we are I. Know we're doing good that's
really good that's because I said balls and wieners, right
so. Another moment.
Yeah. So let me ask you this, OK, If

(59:40):
if everything goes as planned, Cuomo wins the mayor in New
Yorkshire and Trump eventually gets to Russia and Ukraine, Yes.
OK. And if Trump solves Russia and
Ukraine and Elan and Israel ceasefire and and signed
treaties, yeah, Trump belongs onMount Rushmore.

(01:00:04):
No, I don't think he was. I don't think he was on Mount
Rushmore. But I mean, he, he's the
greatest president maybe in the generation.
Nobel Peace Prize be Man of the year.
OK, Yeah, I, I, I think this, Dave, you know what?
You may be running, say, Mount. Rushmore.
We got to get DEI, not Rushmore.I mean, it's a slight
exaggeration, but yeah. He'll he'll be in the top.

(01:00:27):
He'll be pretty. He'll be up there.
He's the only guy that I've everseen, OK.
He's been in. Where the, where a majority of
the world is saying, hey, pleasehelp us.
President Trump, you know, a president usually has to take
care of his own country first, right?
Right. So there's there's not, there's
not. No one asked Angela Merkel of

(01:00:48):
Germany when she was Chancellor Merkel.
No one asked her when she was chancellor of Germany.
Hey, Angela, could you please help us in the rest of the
world? We need Germany's help.
Yeah. No one, no, no one said that to
all these these these leaders around the rest of the world.
But they go to Trump because they're.
Trying, I think what Israel did well in this case was they said

(01:01:12):
we'll take care of 99% of this. We only need the one thing that
we don't have, which was those it was Bunker Buster.
Right, right. Yeah.
They told them we'll take the heat.
They they told us we'll take theheat.
Don't worry. Just come in and the finishing.
Goal. We only need one thing.
Right, right. So Dave, last Wednesday we

(01:01:32):
talked about the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and he's
considered wildly the greatest president of all time, the
ranking presidents. And, you know, I, I think
Washington's first and he's second.
But if you were ranking them for, you know, this generation,

(01:01:53):
if we're going from let's go from Nixon, Nah, we'll go
Kennedy on Who do you think's the best?
Kennedy on. Yeah, if we if we started at
Kennedy. And go Reagan.
Really. Reagan.
He didn't really do much though.Ended the Cold War.

(01:02:17):
He ended the cold. War.
Oh, he did. I thought that was Gorbachev.
I didn't know that was. Gorbachev and Reagan met.
They were in Vladivostok. Wasn't a Vladivostok where they
met? Yeah, but he had Alzheimer's
near the end of his term. That's why it's not as.
It was a second term and by that.
I would say Reagan is probably. I, I, I mean, I think Clinton's

(01:02:41):
up there, number one. No, I wouldn't know.
No, no, outside. You're saying after Kennedy or
including Kennedy? I'm saying from Kennedy to
Trump, how would you like, how would you rank?
Them Kennedy was great. It.
Was just short lived, yes. Short lived.

(01:03:05):
Nixon. Nixon was Carter.
Nixon, Nixon, Ford and Carter were awful.
I mean, listen, it's not exactlythe greatest hits.
No, that's what I'm saying. What you basically have is
Reagan Kennedy. Clinton.
Clinton. Is probably up there.
Clinton is way up there. He's he's top five.

(01:03:26):
I don't. I never really liked Bush.
Did you put Bush up there? No.
Bush would have been up there ifit wasn't for Iraq.
Yeah, yeah. With the with the the missiles
which they never had. Yeah, I know.
I would say Trump is up there. Obama's up there.

(01:03:46):
He. Might be Trump right now in my
mind. I think Trump's number one.
I would say that you if you thought Reagan to me because you
know, Kennedy kind of short lived so.
Trump came back from the debt. Yeah, but you can't.
It's true. But you can't rank Trump yet

(01:04:07):
because it's an unfinished. It's an unfinished rank.
It's an unfinished administration, right?
One, unfortunately for JFK, obviously, because he never
really got to finish a lot of the things.
You would put him in the Yeah. You know what he was trying to
do, you know? Yeah, LBJ was the worst I would

(01:04:29):
say. Trump is probably, I mean, Trump
is probably three, yeah, 2 rightnow.
And could be that couldn't end up being number one.
And then what is crazy is that like when you look at America
and yes, of course, slavery was terrible, but outside the

(01:04:51):
slavery issue, which is obviously an issue that looms
over, we look at what the UnitedStates had to have early on,
what kind of presidents they needed in order to grow.
So many of them were actually very good.
You know what I mean? Because otherwise there's no way
the country. Well, that's why I.
I put Lincoln as one. Because yes, people do.

(01:05:13):
George Washington, you know, thefather of Revolutionary War, we,
we had a common enemy and the enemy, the enemy was the enemy
was different. The enemy was not our brother.
Civil War, I mean, the enemy wasour brother.
You know, we were fighting our relatives.
Families were split and killing each other.
I think that is that was it was the toughest job that any

(01:05:34):
president has ever had. People say that we've.
Gone to war we've fought enemiesno problem but to fight yourself
internally, I think that is a tremendous test that that that
Lincoln took on and he solved and and he he did I mean he
persevered he persevered let's put it that way yes go.
For it too. So, right, right.
Yeah, yeah. So you would put Lincoln number

(01:05:57):
one. I would.
Put Abraham Lincoln number one in our in.
Our country's history not part of the list.
So if the list I was going on, Kennedy, did you put you would
put Kennedy? I would not.
No. I would put.
I would put Reagan one. I would put Clinton 2.
Reagan's would put Kennedy three.
Yeah, I would put Reagan one. No.
Yeah. Clinton 2.
Kennedy 3 Clinton. What Clinton if he didn't get

(01:06:22):
the nonsense at the end? Yeah, well, forget about the
personal stuff. I mean, every, everyone gets
hit. You can't blame him for that.
And then I'm not blaming. For I'm just saying that like.
I would put it. Was a blue dress.
I mean, that's all. Even with an unfinished even
with an unfinished script right now, I would put Trump 4.

(01:06:42):
I would put one I. Would put Obama what's I would
put Obama 5. Yeah.
Yeah. Four or five, I would put
Barack, yeah. You know, and again, I'm I'm
throwing. General I disagree with that as.
Well, why you don't think he belongs?
No, I think Trump is one. Yeah, Trump is 1.
It's. Hard.
It's hard to do. Because Trump.
Came back from the dead, yeah. But I understand.

(01:07:04):
But what if the country shits inthe next three years?
It's not going to. I'm not.
He won't let, but he won't let it.
He's a powerful leader. He will not let it shit.
What I do, I have to get listen,I give him all the credit in the
world. Like I said, the rest of the
world comes to him to solve their problems.
If I had, I had to rank him fromwhat he did then until today.
I rank him one, I rank him one, and then I rank Clinton 2 and

(01:07:28):
then Obama's 3. Listen, the Cold War was that
was mythical. It wasn't mythical.
It was a rock that hungover thiscountry's head for almost 30
years. You were really scared during
the Cold War, like you would youthought we could get bombed by
Russia. The country, The country was on
edge for almost 30 years. A little more with like threat

(01:07:51):
of how threat was the threat of an edge where people knew what
DEFCON meant. OK, no one, no one, no one knew
it before DEFCON meant all of a sudden.
Oh well, the United States is atDEFCON 3 because the Soviets
have mobilized submarines off ofGreenland.
That's true, you know. What I mean that, I mean, we're
talking about, you know, hey, listen, what did we go through

(01:08:13):
in school and elementary school in training?
Yeah, you did the. Missile drill.
You did the you did the bomb, you did the nuclear bomb drill.
You'd get under your desk like that's gonna protect you from
the radiation and the blast. Yeah, I mean, you get
incinerated. You just.
So that that generation lived through that.
I think that was a so when Ronald Reagan met with with
McCormick Chachev, yeah, I mean,that was revolutionary.

(01:08:34):
Well, I was. That was that was that was like
when China would not when Nixon went to China.
You know, in a way you're looking.
Oh. My God, if we went to court,
North Korea and that Kim Young. Kim Jong Un when Trump did that,
that's right. In a way it's revolutionary, but
but North Korea is not on the standing like Russia or China,
right. So you're talking about, you
know, you're talking about Ronald Reagan going to meet
Jordan. What were you?

(01:08:55):
Listen, we've got to talk about breaking this Cold War.
We we've got to talk about, you know, pulling back on on this
armament on both sides. We're going to do Star Wars.
Star Wars was the big thing whenthey were.
Going to fire, we were going to be able to shoot.
Rockets and then while we do have it, I mean the, the Israel
has it with the, with the Iron Dome, which is doing a pretty
good job. But imagine what we have that we

(01:09:16):
haven't even talked about in this country as far as, you
know, taking missiles out of thesky.
So I'm sitting down with Gorbachev and then getting
Gorbachev to actually agree. He did.
He did then go to the Berlin Wall.
And get rid of that take. This take this wall down, right?
I mean, that's, that's, that's historic.
That's a such a historic. Story.
Century kind of move right there.

(01:09:37):
So that's why refer to me. Reagan is one.
Yeah. But I'll tell you, it's an
unfinished book. But if Trump pulls off these two
or three wild cards that are coming in as far as World Peace
and as far as economic development in this country and
as far as getting back to a balanced, stabilized thought
process, we are, we are so out of whack right now.
And again, again, we are, we arealways 15 to 20 years behind the

(01:09:59):
European curve. Yeah, the Europeans do it.
And then all of a sudden it getson a ship and it comes over here
to us. Yes, right.
So what we're what we've gotten on the ship is we've gotten all
this, all this overly educated protesting above superior
thought. We have entitled.
Coming out of college education coming out of college that
doesn't understand the the actual process of steps of going

(01:10:20):
through they. Just think they're smarter.
They. They expect to walk in the room
and because they have a piece ofpaper from a fucking.
Cool, here I have. Heard that they're automatically
into the work. I know more than you, right?
They got a they got a house. Remember that?
Elmer J Fudd where Bugs Bunny? I'm Elmer J Fudd, millionaire.
I own a mansion in a yacht. I mean, that's basically what
they're taught in college. They're they're they're they're
they're like zombies. Yeah.
Thinking they're going to come out like that instead of

(01:10:41):
actually putting their, putting their nose to the grindstone.
You know how many kids I'm in? I'm in business right now.
I'm you. I'm in food.
Business right you are. You know how many kids that can
get to clean out a sink or cleanout a grease trap when they're
1819 years old? Oh no.
They're they're horrible. No, they don't want to do it.
They can be they. Can be like a very.
They look at me like I asked himto, like, go wipe a donkey's
ass. Yeah, You know, just to do.
Just to do. French has a very.

(01:11:02):
Poor workforce. No, it's not a very poor
workforce. It's just that.
That's why Johnny. Should have his own people.
Don't want to do it. They don't.
They don't want to be told to doit.
They want to have to do it. A manager right now in any kind
of a restaurant is more of a babysitter than anything else.
You have to you're. Not a guy controlling the
ordering. Maybe you will control the
ordering and the payments and and scheduling and all that, but

(01:11:25):
bottom line, you were managing unmanageable personalities.
They people used to come into work, they punch in, they'd say
hello, they go do their job and they go home.
Now when they come in, they punch into work, they get on
their phone, they watch videos for 30 minutes and then they go
take. A cigarette break.
Then they come back and they wait on three people.
Then they go take another cigarette break.

(01:11:46):
They go. Take a shit, right?
And then they're going to come out and tell me that they
worked. Real hard, Dave.
Remember I told you Frank hates vacation?
Frank's taken like 2 vacations in 10 years and I've asked him
this. I said Frank, what if you take a
vacation for a week? He said the pizzeria will blow
up, it'll burn down. I don't blown out but.

(01:12:08):
Well, you know what? What is what?
What they kids perceive as working hard is not no, no,
they're just wasting time. They need to think showing up
like showing up is productive, is product is automatically like
it's like a Gold Star. You showed up.

(01:12:28):
My kid went off the practice like.
Yeah, congratulations. Why are we running?
My kid is. My kid is a lifeguard in.
A human role. We ran like 1 Sprint wide.
Tired. My kid is a lifeguard at a
community pool. He's a senior, just graduated
high school. He's a lifeguard at a community
pool. First aid certified lifeguard
classes, everything like that. People love him.
He's 68230. He looks like a man up there on

(01:12:50):
the seat, right? He comes back after working six
hours at the pool and say, oh, my God, this job is so hard.
I had to yell at this little kidto sit down.
This one. Don't touch that.
Don't tell. This is rough.
Yeah. You're babysitting.
He has a job where he gets a break every 15 minutes.
Yeah, yeah. He's up on this chair for 15,
and they have 3 lifeguards at the pool.

(01:13:10):
He gets to go down, they go intoa room where there's air
conditioning. He'll have a little snack, drink
something, go on his phone for 10 minutes and then go back up
on the chair for another 15. That's that's a rough word for
me. Dave, let me ask you the last
thing worst couple presidents from Kennedy on that you would
list? How many times can I?
How many times can I list Biden?Number one would be Biden.

(01:13:35):
Biden, LBJ. Nixon.
Biden. Won two is Carter.
Really. Carter sucked.
Well, Carter became good after he was president.
Yeah, that's right. That's right.
He. He was a good.
Leader in a rough administration, rough four
years, he. Was horrible trying to get 3/3.

(01:13:57):
Ford was real bad. Ford was, well, Zane.
Well, Ford was the vice president he inherited.
It yeah, that's what I'm saying.But he, he was.
Yeah, Ford inherited, yeah. Bush I never liked.
That's what Bush up there. Which Bush?
Bush Junior. Nah, both of them.
I like Bush Junior. Bush junior actually did a good

(01:14:18):
job. The prop economy, economy turn.
Yeah, yeah, it was a problem. Yeah, so you're going Biden.
Biden is 1 for sure. You don't think LBJ is 2?
Well, you're saying Kennedy? You're saying from Kennedy on,
Yeah. LBJ was after Kennedy.
Before Kennedy, no. LBJ was after Kennedy.

(01:14:38):
Did some civil rights stuff. He's I couldn't get him, Dave.
I couldn't get him. I thought I had.
LBJ is the ugliest president ever.
Well #1. Like LBJ never got laid.
Lyndon B Johnson. He never had sex.

(01:15:00):
What's his initials again? LBJLBJB as in BJBJ?
You know who LBJ is? He took over for her Kennedy
when he was assassinated, yes. I I think LBJ needs to be ranked
up there as one of the worst because he got us into the
Vietnam conflict. Yes.
Yeah, we, we didn't need to be there.

(01:15:21):
We we took over for the French. It was.
It was ridiculous. Yes, that's why I rank him,
yeah. If I got to do it, I, I put
Biden won. If Nixon didn't screw up, he
could have been among the best, yeah.
Nixon was just trying to get Intel.
I don't blame. Him, he's just trying to, he's
just, he's just trying to control everybody, just trying
to get Intel. No, I was.
Just trying to get Intel. I think definitely Biden is 1

(01:15:42):
without a doubt. If I could Biden 5.
If I could vote Biden 123, I would vote Biden 123.
You could have put a 5 year old in and done a better.
Biden. Biden would be #1 I'd have to
say Carter because he, he came in.
No Jimmy Carter #2. You can't say why.
It's not fair. Why it's not fair?
Because he, we, he, he turned his life around.

(01:16:02):
We were. We were in a in.
A recession the Iran. Reject the inflation.
Inflation rate was he? Got a check for that?
We sent in, we sent in helicopters to do a job and I
ran for them. They ran into each other.
I mean, that's a, that's a, that's a scar on his his resume.
Gas prices were through. The rate because of the because

(01:16:22):
that when you had to wait in line, you had.
To wait in line there, there aregas lines, literally you could
be #40 in line to get a tank full of gas and.
There was ration to do that. Yeah, he didn't mean to do that.
I know. Well, normally presidents don't
usually control gas prices. It's not how it works.
But bottom line policy, world policy sometimes does affect the

(01:16:44):
way things are are are priced out.
But Carter? Definitely up there for you.
LBJ is 2. AI would almost put him even
with with Carter. And he was the ugliest.
I don't care about Luke. So LBJ, LBJ and then a Ford
would be 4. And then probably, I hate to see
it. I mean, probably Bush Junior
Five. I didn't mind Bush.
No Bush senior would be the other one.

(01:17:06):
He only got one term. He.
Only got one term and you know what he it's like he said he.
Said no new taxes and he lied. Nah, when he said, when he said
he didn't like broccoli, that's what fucked up.
No new yeah, he said. Read my lips.
No new taxes. He lied when?
He said when he said he didn't like broccoli, that fucked him
up big time. And then, before he died, he was
accused of groping women. Well, at that point, it doesn't

(01:17:27):
matter. He was just trying to matter.
He thought it was railings. He was just trying to grab onto
a tight railing. Yeah.
No, I think that's it. We'll have another presidential
discussion. I don't know.
I disagree with all of you, but Trump is number one.
Stop. Just so you know, I do think if
you rank Trump from what he's done until now, he's won.
It's too early. I think Clinton's two, Obama's

(01:17:48):
three done deal. You can't argue.
You think Obama's three, huh? Yeah, Obama's three, Obama's
three. Yeah, Obama's three.
The. Worst.
And Reagan's not even up there. Reagan can be for the bottom.
It's LBJ. Yeah, You know, LBJ because
number 1, he had a huge nose andwas ugly.

(01:18:10):
Number 2 is obviously probably. I'd have to go with George H,
you know, because he touched people.
And then, you know, Nixon, probably.
Where does Biden come into this?Isn't Biden won?
I'm sorry, Biden was won LBJ. Biden LBJ recorrect you.

(01:18:32):
Yeah, it was Biden. LBJ.
Yeah, I think. LBJ.
I just think it's, you know what, being president, it ain't
easy. You can see how it ages.
Every person that goes into office, they go and look in DC.
Biden LBJ Bush Biden LBJ Bush. But the when the when the book
is all said and done on Donald Trump, he came back from the

(01:18:52):
dead, yes. But when the book is all said
and done, and then you look at what happened in the four years
under Joe Biden and how he basically ran nothing and how
everyone. Else worked from 2:50.
Every every one of his advisors was making policy instead of the
president. And he rubber stamped everything
right. I.
Want a rubber stamp? Auto signed.

(01:19:14):
Auto penned. I want a rubber stamp.
But but so when you look at thatand then you compare it to they
say that, they say that, Dave, you've heard of this where

attack the guy because you don't, you're not a, you're not
a conservative, you don't believe, OK, that's I got you,

He's not going and doing deals that are going to be beneficial
to this country. He's not working on
international affairs to keep this country safe.
Everything is based on on this country.
