Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now this is the Mark Simone show on seven to ten.
Wo lor.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Well, it's Friday, I got it's Friday. I actually be
better versus Friday night. That way, we've gotten through Friday already.
Still have to get through this show. So, I don't know.
It's not right. It's cold outside, it's like autumn all
of a sudden, got to put on what they call outerwear.
It's I don't know. Every guest we had today canceled.

(00:30):
Don't worry. Don't worry. We'll get them all replaced. We'll
get new guests. Let's see other news. Well, the Nobel
Prize was announced. Now, this is gonna be an interesting battle.
I hope. I know the President's very busy with much
more important things, but I hope he takes up this
cause this Nobel Prize is the phoniest nothingest award. It's

(00:54):
a complete farce. I don't know how it's an incredible
most genius mark ever that they still have some kind
of reputation for prestige. It's not a legitimate award. It
goes to the worst people on earth. You can trade.
You know, people have put together these lists of all
the greats that didn't get a Nobel Prize and all

(01:14):
the worst people on earth that get these Nobel Prizes.
So obviously this year, I mean, if you're going to
it's called the Nobel Peace Prize. There's different Nobel Prizes.
There's one for science, this one for literature. All the
greats of literature have never gotten the literature one because
we don't like their politics, sir. They give the Nobel

(01:35):
Prize for economics to the worst economists in the world,
the worst economist ever, Paul Kruman, He's a Nobel Prize winner.
It's the worst award. As many people point out privately,
it's not a Nobel Peace Prize. It's a Democrat peace Prize.
It's a European globalist, left wing kook prize. They're the

(01:56):
ones that decide it. They're the ones that make up
the committee. They made the announcement today, the Nobel Peace Price. Now, obviously,
if you just settled seven wars in one year, let
me repeat that, seven wars in one year. You just
settled the Israel Hamas conflict, which has got to be
the most difficult thing to settle. If you just bought

(02:19):
brought peace to me, obviously you would of course you
would get the Nobel Price. Who could be ahead of
you on accomplishment. But it's the Nobel Price, a totally
corrupt award. It only goes to left wing far left.
The Nobel announcement was this morning.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
The Nobel Peace Price for twenty twenty five goes through
a brain and committed champion of peace to a woman
who keeps the democracy burn amidst the growing darkness.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yes, the winner is hang on, what the hell is
her name? Maria Corina Mikado is the Peace Prize winner.
She leads not Venezuela. She's the opposition leader in Venezuela.
She wins for her let's say here, her struggle against authoritarianism,

(03:12):
fearless defensive democracy and her bold moral leadership A translation
left wing kook far left calls Trump names perfect. She wins.
This is the woman. Tells her name, Maria Corina Makado.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
The Nrwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the Nobel
Peace Prize for twenty twenty five to Maria Corina Machado.
She is receiving the Nobel Peace Price for her tireless
work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yes, now this whoever this weasel is who runs this
Nobel committee. He was asked why did't Donald Trump get it?
And he didn't come right out say it. He just
danced around it. He said something, it's not just for
the accomplishments, it's not just about peace. It's about leadership
and character. And now again, President Trump's very busy, He's

(04:13):
got much more important things to worry about. But I hope,
and he's the guy that could do this. I hope
he will now work on completely shattering and destroying the
reputation of the Nobel Peace Prize. I don't know how
the hell they still have this aura about them, like
as if it's some sort of prestigious award. It's the
most slanted, corrupt, biased, left wing coock award. Remember they

(04:35):
gave one to Barack Obama the day he was elected.
He hadn't even done anything yet, literally had done nothing.
He just got elected. They gave him a Nobel Peace Price.
They call it the Nobel Participation Trophy. He did nothing,
had not even started yet, and they gave it to him.
But that's the way they are. If they don't like
one thing you say, you don't get a Nobel Peace

(04:56):
Prize like Gandhi didn't get it. They didn't like something
he said. It's hopefully the president will go to work
on them and start taking away that ridiculous reputation of it.
I think this was the day before. This is before
the announcement they did settle.

Speaker 5 (05:11):
Marco would tell you we settled seven wars, we're close
to settling an eighth. And I think we'll end up
settling the Russia situation, which is horrible. Seven thousand people
died last week, by the way, in Russia, between Russia
and Ukraine. I think we'll settle that. So I don't
think anybody in history is settled that that many. But
perhaps they'll find a reason not to give it to me.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yeah. Now, if you watch the left wing kook stations,
you know, the MSNBC, they're all talking about President Trump.
He really wants that. It means a lot to him
to have that Nobel. It means absolutely nothing to him.
It means absolutely nothing. First of all, he had a
Nobel Prize. You know, if you put an Oscar on
your mantle, people walking, oh my god, you got an Oscar.

(05:56):
Put the Nobel Peace Prize right on your mantle. He
knows what the hell it is. Nobody even recognize it anyway.
Let's get to more important stuff. Letitia James has been indicted.
This slob will most likely get convicted. Her response was
she put out a video. That's interesting. You see, normally

(06:19):
your response should be to hold a press conference and
answer any and all questions about this. That's what you
would do if you're innocent. If you're innocent, you'd hold
a press conference and then you'd make a statement. Then
the reporters would ask you, but did you put down
that it was going to be your primary residence when
it wasn't Did you ever live in They'd ask you
a million questions. You did answer them. But if you're guilty,

(06:41):
you can't answer. You can't. In fact, you can't say
anything specifically about the crime because you'll be held to
that in court if you do it publicly. So she
can't do the live press conference, so instead she puts
out a video statement.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
We will fight these baseless charges aggressively.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Now that's a lawyer, and that's very loyally. You would
normally say, we'll fight these false charges. I'm innocent, will
fight these false charges. But when you say baseless, that's
what a lawyer will tell you to say doesn't mean
it's false. It's a vague word. So you're covered legally
just saying it's baseless.

Speaker 6 (07:18):
And my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers
and their rights, and I will continue to do my job.
I stand strongly behind my office is litigation against the
Trump organization. We conducted a two year investigation based on
the facts and evidence, not politics. Judges have upheld the

(07:43):
trial court's finding that Donald Trump, his company, and his
two sons liable for fraud.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Yeah, now that's actually not true. Now that's an actual lie.
One court after another is slowly but surely tossing out everything.
There's no legitimate legal expert in the world who believes
that she brought a valid case against them. In fact,
most of the I'm not talking with the left wing
kook MSNBC I legal people, but they're real legal experts.

(08:13):
Even the appeals court on the very first hearing, the
appeals court couldn't believe the silly charge she came up with,
and they said to the prosecutors, has anybody in history
ever been charged with this? And even the prosecutor had
to say, no, it's just a made up charge. About
absolutely nothing.

Speaker 6 (08:33):
This is nothing more than a continuation of the president's
desperate weaponization of our justice system.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Do you ever, well, it's not weaponization. I think it's
called karma. I think it's what's the what do they
call it, fafo? I think that's exactly exactly what it was.
So remember when she ran for office, she's a little
like a broken down a road show version of Joseph Stalin. See,

(09:03):
the American justice system is if a crime is committed,
we then investigate to see who committed the crime. That's
our justice system. The Joe Stalin Soviet justice system is
we pick somebody we don't like and then we investigate
to find a crime. Here we have a crime, then
we go investigate see who did it. In the Soviet style,

(09:25):
you pick who you hate, start investigating until you can
find a crime. And that's Letitia James. She's at like
a poor man's Joe Stalin. When she campaigned, she said
she would weaponize the system when she campaigned, and in
congratulations to Anderson Cooper, who's on CNN yet last night
he really slammed her, saying it was disgusting what she

(09:47):
did campaigning, saying that she would go after Donald Trump.
She would target him, that she would look for a crime.
Here's her campaign.

Speaker 6 (09:55):
He built his wealth off the backs of New Yorkers,
and need to focus on Donald Trump and his abuses.
We need to follow his money, We need to find
out where he's laundered money. All of those transactions have
happened here in New York City. Tell this president and
every other individual that no one is above the law.

Speaker 7 (10:12):
I said the bottom line.

Speaker 8 (10:13):
He said that presidents from Brooklyn whore.

Speaker 5 (10:15):
That'll really make the difference.

Speaker 8 (10:17):
I a jize.

Speaker 7 (10:17):
Individuals from the city are at a give.

Speaker 6 (10:19):
Individuals who care about state why the issues are in
a jive, Individuals who care about Okay, it's going after Donald.

Speaker 5 (10:25):
Charms as legitimate government.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
Yeah. So remember she took it to a New York
City courtroom where she got a crazy kook of a
left wing judge, She got left wing Trump hating jurors,
and she got a conviction. But it's all being overturned.
One court has already thrown I remember there was a
massive like a four hundred million dollar fine that's already
been tossed out by a court. And one by one

(10:47):
they're just dismantling this case. Now on appeal it gets
to it. When it gets to a legitimate court, the
case will be thrown out and he'll be found there'll
be no conviction. But the Demo control the court system
in New York, so they're delaying the appeal. Now, normally
that appeal would have happened in six months. It's about
two years now they're still delaying it. They're delaying it

(11:10):
because you know the case will get tossed out. It's
a preposterous case. So la Tisha James. If you check
out my Twitter, you can see the documents. She actually
did commit mortgage fraud. She put down on the form
that it was her principal residence and she would live there,
it would be her primary residence. It's in Virginia. Now
that's impossible. You can't be Attorney General of New York

(11:32):
and live in Virginia. In fact, part of the illegally
in New York, you have to live here to be
the Attorney General. So she's committing a crime with that,
and she's got the document. She can claim I don't
know what I signed, I didn't understand it, I didn't
read it. She's the attorney general. You can't claim you
can't read a simple legal thing for a mortgage, so

(11:54):
it is mortgage fraud. She will get convicted. Now there's
probably other charges coming. We'll see what happens. This will
be pretty good to watch. And again the media, you
got Chuck Schumer and all these idiots on all the
left wing Coop network screaming it's the end of our democracy.
Is we've gone totally Soviet? Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. Again credit

(12:21):
to Anderson Cooper, the one guy on CNN who said
that what Latitia James did was just awful, just horrible.
So what else a president goes to? Walter reed today
the hospital for you usually get an annual physical. But
that was six months ago, so he's back in six
months and he said it's a semi annual physical. It's

(12:42):
not a bad idea to get it twice a year,
especially when you're an older president. But everybody a little suspicious.
You don't normally go I mean, of course you go
to the doctor more than once a year, but you
don't normally go for hours for a detailed physical unless
something's wrong. It probably is something wrong. It doesn't mean
anything major. We know he's got problems with his ankles,

(13:04):
his legs, he's got swelling, but these are things you
get when you get into your upper seventies. And he's
got those white spots on his hand, some kind of
skin conditioned blood circulation, something like that. In the White House,
they have a doctor's office with a doctor twenty four
hours a day in the White House, and they got
a little medical center in the White House where they
can do a lot. They can do cat scans, they

(13:26):
can do MRIs. They got all the imaging stuff, all
the equipment right there in the White House twenty four
to seven. So he's and he's scheduled to be at
Walter Reed for a long time eleven am to three pm.
That's four hours there. But so they're really looking. They
might have found something at the White House and they
want to do something in Walter Reed. There'll be a

(13:46):
press conference, they'll explain what happened. But he'll be back
at the White House at five today. He's expected to
leave for the Middle East over the weekend. The hostages
are being released. He'll be there when they're released. He'll
speak to the Kanesi. He's going to Egypt. He's going
to meet with the negotiators who did an incredible job.
Steve whitcoffin Hamas, they had to do this deal.

Speaker 5 (14:11):
The pressure was on them.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
They were backed up, and you've got the bigger army.

Speaker 5 (14:16):
You were making inroads and that's what led to this deal.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Now, the President wrote the book The Art of the Deal,
talks about the deal. This is probably the most complicated
deal he ever did, and it was done brilliantly. A
lot of skill involved here. Sometimes you need some luck,
but this was all skill. And it was like a
chess game for a long time, backing Hamas into a
corner negotiation wise, back in bb net, Yahoo into a

(14:41):
corner negotiation wise. The actual Hamas chief is Khalil al Haya.
He said yesterday the war in Gaza is over. He said,
Hamas received guarantees from the US, from the Arab mediators.
Trump bought in all these other countries who backed up
the deals. But he says the war is over, the

(15:02):
deal is done. And it was a tough day for
the media because they had to actually give Trump praise.
This was an amazing accomplishment. If a Nobel Peace Prize
were legitimate, they'd probably give them three of them this year.
But this was an amazing thing. And even those Trump haters,
those anchors, those media people had to say, so.

Speaker 9 (15:23):
This is a huge accomplishment by the Trump administration.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
I think this is news to celebrate.

Speaker 10 (15:28):
This is a major breakthrough and a huge accomplishment for
the president.

Speaker 6 (15:31):
If we see those remaining hostages freed in Israel begin
its withdrawal, it is a remarkable achievement and President Trump
most certainly deserves credit for his role.

Speaker 10 (15:41):
I can remember in the month or so after October
seventh and Israeli, a senior official saying to me, we
are so disoriented and traumatized by this war. The United
States is going to have to make decisions for us.
Joe Biden could never do that, and Donald Trump was
able to do it.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
It killed them with those anchors, even here Martha raddit's there,
they had to say it. President former President Obama put
out a statement thing how wonderful was thanking everybody, but
refused to mention Trump in the statement, would not mention
President Trump and getting a lot of flag for it.
Now in his defense, when he killed Osama bin Laden,

(16:25):
Trump put out statements and didn't mention Obama. So I
guess you could use that as an argument for it,
but hey, we'll get to the mayoral race coming up.
Cuomo has been speaking, Mamdannie has been They're all doing interviews.
We'll go over them. We'll give you all the latest
on the mayoral race coming up, and we'll take some
calls in a moment. Eight hundred three to two one

(16:46):
zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three to
two one zero seven ten.

Speaker 10 (16:51):
Set up said on the iHeartRadio app to do w
o R to hear Mark live.

Speaker 1 (16:56):
Set another for Mark's podcast to hear him Now back
to Mark Simon on wo R.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Hey, let's say some calls. Eight hundred three to two
one zero seven ten is a number. Let's go to Sylvia, Manhattan, Sylvia.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
How you doing, Mark DearS, Yes to me, there is
no difference between the Vogue magazine cover and the Nobel
Peace Prize follow For years, the most Beautiful First Lady
has been ignored for the likes of Jill Biden. Question Mark,

(17:34):
they are petti to the smallest extent. The Nobel Peace Prize.

Speaker 2 (17:40):
You know you should have been a hypnotist. You got
that hypnotic voice, that way you're talking.

Speaker 8 (17:44):
I know, I know. Don't go to sleep don't go
to sleep, dearest, because the Nobel Peace Prize is printed
on the same toilet paper as the Vogue covers are.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
The same, very very biased. All right, Sylvia, thanks for
calling I No, no, that's like a hundred house this
smile the phone.

Speaker 5 (18:02):
Go.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
Then let's go to uh Mike and Florida.

Speaker 11 (18:04):
Mike, how you doing? Yes?

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Uh?

Speaker 12 (18:08):
By the way, Ice down here.

Speaker 13 (18:10):
At the President's Age, go to thet go to the
hospital twice a week, and they're just sitting around playing well.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
In their defense, it's Florida. You people have nothing to
do all day. You get the Starbucks at five am,
wait for them to open. You got nothing to do
all day? You wait for dinner at three o'clock.

Speaker 14 (18:26):
Over the last couple of days, two names popped into
my head.

Speaker 12 (18:29):
Don't ask me why, don't ask me how Manti Rock
and London Lee.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
London Lee. These were minor stars. London London Lee was
a great He was an okay comedian who got himself
all over the Ed Sullivan Show. Had quite a career
in the late sixties into the seventies. Uh yeah, I
knew the guy. In the eighties he was had been

(18:54):
forgotten about. He was kind of a He was one
of these crazy guys who tried to act like a
big star, you know. You'd he'd pay in the restaurant
of the store with cash and then when they give
him the change, he look at the bills. He said,
I don't take bills that have sevens in them, No
sevens in the serial number. And he give me that
kind of guy. And Monty Rock the Third, he was
he became pretty big. He was a hairdresser and he

(19:15):
got on MERV Griffin, The Tonight Show and Mike Douglas
and then he had a big hit record. What was
it called. It was Let's Get Dan some Disco Texts
and the Letts in the Disco.

Speaker 15 (19:27):
And he was all of a TV back in the
sixties and seventies.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Yeah, it became quite a star based on absolutely nothing.
Just a good person. All right, good question, Mike. Let's
go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing.

Speaker 12 (19:39):
You mean, like the Kardashians that have no talent at all,
The only talent they have is their bodies.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
No, you got to give them more credit. They became billionaires.
Monty Rock the Third, you know, made a few bucks,
but that was it.

Speaker 12 (19:50):
Yeah, Yeah, isn't one of the Kardashians like Zoe billionaire
the youngest.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
Go yeah, yeah, millions.

Speaker 12 (20:01):
Yeah, Mark, I'm glad, all everybody is glad that Letitia
James got indicting, got indicted yesterday. But on the flip side, unfortunately,
all the suckers in New York State a footing her
legal bill because Katy hoche and the legislature set up

(20:22):
a slush fund. How much what was it? Ten million
dollars they set it up for. Yeah, so, but that
gives New York is another reason why to try and
vote Katy Hulko, Carl Hasty and Andrea Stewart cousins out
because they set up this slush fund. Imagine if you

(20:43):
have some petty legal bill, like a person who's building
a fence, your neighbor went a couple of inches over
their property line, and you're in court trying to fight
them to put the defence back a few inches on
their property line. You go for you your shirt.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Meanwhile, hey, Vincent, we gotta go. We gotta do the news.
But that's a very good point, excellent point about that
legal fund. Bet, thanks for calling. We got to go
because we got to do the news. And when we
come back, Miranda Divine will be with us. Talk to
her next on seven to ten WR.

Speaker 12 (21:14):
It's more Mark Simone on sevent ten wor.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Well, Miranda Divine, the great columnist, the best selling author.
Make sure you get her book. It's a big best seller.
But if you haven't gotten you get the book, The
Big Guy. It is the best book on Joe Biden,
the corruption hunter that's called The Big Guy. Get the book.
She also does a great podcast called pod Force one.
You can get it at the New York Post website

(21:40):
or wherever you get your podcast. Miranda Divine's podcast. Also,
all her great columns are up on the New York
Post website. Miranda Divine.

Speaker 15 (21:48):
How you doing, Hi, March, how are you?

Speaker 2 (21:51):
I'm good. Isn't it great watching Tis James, the queen
of weaponization of a justice system, complain about it.

Speaker 7 (22:00):
Oh, It's just delicious. No one is above the law,
you know. And I love seeing the Dems fanning out
on CNN, MSNBC, just outraged about this weaponization they're complaining about.
And they were all a cocker hoop when she was
doing it for Donald Trump and almost bankrupted his company,

(22:21):
his family company, And you know, I find it quite
astonishing that their excuse is that, oh, everybody does it,
everybody commits mortgage fraud, and all the more reason why
a couple of high profile scalps, and remember she's not

(22:41):
the only one. Adam Schiff is also in the cross
hairs on for the same issue, that they should be
held up as deterrence for anyone else who might be
thinking of trying to get a better priced mortgage to
save themselves some money when they're not entitled to it.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
Yeah, and you know when they said, well, Donald Trump
overvalued this apartment, do you know any real estate istions
that doesn't do that on any listing.

Speaker 7 (23:11):
Well, but I mean also some of that was just ridiculous,
Like they're talking about Mary Lago being worth I think
it was Judge anger On who said, you know, took
some ridiculous evaluation that said it was worth a couple
of million dollars. I can't from the eighteen million eighteen right, Yeah,
and it's worth you know, multiples of that, ten times

(23:32):
that at least, so you know, anyone who's seen it,
it's ridiculous. It's absolutely prime waterfront on both sides, beachfront waterfront.
It's just an amazing property, and the idea that it
would be worth eighteen million.

Speaker 11 (23:46):
I mean I'd buy it.

Speaker 7 (23:47):
I could get together some friends and we could all
put the money together and borrow, beg, borrow and steal.
You'd do anything because it would be such a bargain.

Speaker 15 (23:57):
But no, it's not.

Speaker 7 (23:57):
Worth eighteen million. And Lt. James, no one is above
the law, you know, that's what she loved to say
about Donald Trump. She ran for office on the promise
to get Trump. So don't bleat about weaponization.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
Hey, you're very good at human nature analyzing people. This burning,
raging hatred they have for Donald Trump, what is it? Really?
It's not just what he did politically. I mean, you know,
we didn't like some of the stuff Biden did, but
we don't go insane yelling about what is it that? Well,
how does it cause this rage in people?

Speaker 7 (24:33):
I actually think in it's a lot of them are women.

Speaker 11 (24:36):
It's daddy issues.

Speaker 8 (24:38):
You know.

Speaker 11 (24:39):
They don't like.

Speaker 7 (24:40):
Strong men who sort of are quite happy and comfortable
in their masculinity and are masters of the universe and
command people and command rooms. And I don't know what
happened in their childhood, but it's really it's a psychological problem.
It really isn't based in reality.

Speaker 15 (25:01):
And I don't know.

Speaker 7 (25:03):
I mean, they're so head up on it. I have friends,
well I don't know if they're still friends. But you
know people, I know women who have just gone nuts
and they can't have a conversation with you unless they
bring up Donald Trump and try and change your mind.
And I don't know why they have to make everything political.
It's quite sick. And in fact, I interviewed Keith Ablow,

(25:27):
who's a forensic psychiacterst and actually was Hunter Biden's former
shrink and great guy, and it's for the podcast to
be coming up in a couple of weeks, but he
has a very interesting analysis of the people who are
Trump deranged and he really said, he said, I'll get
a lot of hate mail for this, but you should

(25:49):
really ask yourself, why are you allowing this obsession with
Donald Trump to rule your life. There's something going on
with you, not with him.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
Fascinating. Well, you know there's a strong male, you know,
Bill Clinton, he showed a lot of vulnerability, George Bush
showed vulnerability. But you're right, Trump doesn't show any vulnerability
ever anywhere, does he?

Speaker 7 (26:13):
No He's a swaggering, proud, unabashed masculine male and he
you know, he bosses people around, He manipulates the world
around him. He won't take no for an answer. I mean,
the world was built, the civilized world was built with

(26:34):
people like that who just don't really care what anyone
thinks of them.

Speaker 11 (26:39):
They just barrel.

Speaker 7 (26:40):
Ahead, and you're either with them or you're against them,
and so it is. And so I mean, you can
oppose him and you cannot like what he does, and
that's what politics is all about. But this is beyond that.
This is like a personal derangement. I mean, Rosie o'donald,
he's there talking about her Trump derangement, like with her face.

(27:04):
I don't know why she puts her face so close
to the screen, but she does. And she said that
she was telling her therapist about it, and her therapist said, well,
you know, maybe you know, why are you getting so
upset about this? And Rosie said to her therapist, the
real problem is why aren't you getting more upset about it?

Speaker 15 (27:22):
In Ireland?

Speaker 2 (27:24):
Oh, this is fascinting. This should be your next book
analyzing this. No, it's fascinating, this daddy issue or this
you know, the problem is every billionaire. You know, a
few of them are like this. When they go to work,
they're rough, tough, you know Bezos or Steve Jobs that
they're vicious. I mean in a good way. They get things,
just Award Latnik. Yeah, but most people have never been

(27:45):
around one, and this is just how they act. He's
not a politician. He refuses to put on any of
that fake formality in public. But how's this going to
end these don't you think these lunatics going to have
to pace themselves. They got to get through three and
a half more years of Trump.

Speaker 7 (28:01):
I think some of them are just leaning into assassination culture.

Speaker 12 (28:06):
You know.

Speaker 7 (28:06):
Fanta side about Trump being dead. I remember a few
weeks ago, he sort of wasn't on social media for
like two.

Speaker 11 (28:14):
Days, and.

Speaker 7 (28:17):
He played golf and you know, he did a few things.
And then this rumor started on the left and they
were prompted by some lefty journalist and they were all
fantasizing that, oh he's dead and no one's told us them. Yay,
they were celebrating.

Speaker 11 (28:34):
I mean, that is so sick.

Speaker 7 (28:36):
And then you know, we've seen worse with the like
wishing that the bullet that hit his ear had done better,
damn worse damage. Celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination. I think that's happening.
But on the other side, I think maybe there might be. Well,
there was one woman who was at the White House

(28:56):
roundtable on Antifa on Wednesday, Comember her name, but she's
now like a social media influencer or a citizen journalist.
And she was there and she said, I have recovered
from Trump durand and she said, now I'm much happier,
much nicer, and I think I'm better looking.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
This is fascinating. So this will be the next podcast
with doctor Keith Hableau.

Speaker 7 (29:22):
Yes, oh yeah, well we have someone else but then
the following week.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Yeah, oh, I can't wait to hear this.

Speaker 7 (29:30):
He is so interesting. He's got insights into all of,
you know, the sort of psychology of the left. His
his thesis is that they these you know, you see
these Antifa protests and riots, and there are a whole
lot of people who look like they're from the Night
of the Living Dead.

Speaker 11 (29:51):
They look like they're.

Speaker 7 (29:52):
Extras from a horror movie. And you know, it really
is that. I mean, there are a lot of transgender
individuals meant ill, drug addicted, homeless. That Antifa guys apparently
are dragooning homeless. You don't even want to to come
out and do things for them, give them free cigarettes and.

Speaker 8 (30:11):
So.

Speaker 7 (30:11):
But anyway, it's a real collection of bizarro people. And
what Keith Abler says about that is that these people
have lost their sense of self. They they haven't got
an identity. And really, ultimately, your sense of self comes
from God, Theesis, and if you've severed that, And he said,

(30:34):
particularly the sort of gender bending stuff is a deliberate act,
he claims, by whoever's orchestrating, you know, the leftist movement
in this country, to divide people from who they really are.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
Wow, I wish we had more time. This is fascinating.
We have to have your back and everybody go listen
to Miranda Divine's podcast. It's one of the best on earth.
That's called Podforce one Reader Calms and make sure you
get the book The Big Guy. Hey, Miranda Divine, great stuff,
thanks for being with us.

Speaker 15 (31:05):
Thanks so much.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
Matt right, take care. Yeah, we gotta get him on
the show. Doctor Keith Ablow, I love that guy. We'll
we'll get to the mayoral race in great detail coming
up for the next hour seven to ten wor.

Speaker 7 (31:17):
Mister new yours, Mark Simone, You're the best seven ten wr.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
Hey, we'll get to the mayoral race. We'll go over
all the latest. Let you know what's gonna happen this
coming week. This is going to be the biggest week
in the race. We'll get to that right after the
news here on seven to ten wor the Mark Simone
Show on seven ten wr Hey. It's just very strange.
You know, it's cold out, Hockey season started, football games

(31:47):
are on Thursday night and Monday night. It's just very strange.
It's really Oddumn. I can feel it now, and I
look every time you go in the store, first display,
you see Halloween candy everywhere. It's only a matter of time.
It's going to happen. Soon you're going to walk into
a store and there'll be some Christmas display there. It's
in fact, I just I just a friend of mine

(32:07):
just texted me from Paris. They're putting up Christmas lights
on the schells Lily right now as we speak. Walmart
is doing it already. But that's okay, that's okay. The
faster this happens, the quicker we get to spring. So
Columbus Day is Monday. This is a holiday that was
really on the outs for a while, but not now.

(32:27):
President Trump putting out a proclamation about Columbus Day is
going to make it a very big deal. Columbus Day
Parade will be here in New York on Monday. So
just remember that snarling up traffic all over Midtown on Monday.
Let's get to the mayoral race. New polling shows that
with Eric Adams dropping out of the race, Cuomo picks

(32:48):
up a few votes, about eighty percent more than I thought.
About eighty percent of the Adams vote has gone to Cuomo.
About twenty percent went to Mom Donnie. Now these polls
aren't that accurate, these are these dope college polls, but
it shows Cuomo picking up a little, but not enough
to really come close to Mom Donnie. Mom Donnie still
has a big lead. Curtis picked up a little. The

(33:12):
matching funds were handed out and matching funds yesterday. Cuomo
got almost two million in matching funds. That's from the
campaign finance Board. Curtis got a million four in matching funds.
Mom Donnie got I think a million two in matching funds.
Now Curtis has been spending money. I'll give them credit.

(33:34):
Those ads are all over the place. If you're watching
the Yankee playoff game, Curtis ran ads in the game.
If you're watching Good Day New York this morning, there
were ads for Curtis TV ads. Mom Donnie not doing
much advertising, but if he does, it's not TV, it's
social media. That's the most important battleground right now. Cuomo

(33:55):
doing a lot of interviews, and if you listen to
him in these interviews, the problem is he's awful in debates.
He's a terrible debater. He's slow, and he talks like this.
So I'm listening to some of these. He's done some
long interviews podcasts, radio shows, and if you listen to them,

(34:16):
you ask the guy a question and then he takes
a long time to answer and it's like a five
minute answer. He's great on a podcast podcast you got
to fill an hour. This guy's perfect. Ask him anything.
He talks for eight minutes with a talks slow, runs
down the clock. But you can't do that in a debate,

(34:38):
and you gotta be like Mam Donnie. In a debate,
you gotta be rapid fire like boom boom boom. You
hit the guy with stuff. And then they go to
Cuomo for response and he goes, mister mom, Donnie may
think that, And already the audience says, so he's not
good in the debate. Curtis is a great debater. Now
the big development, this is where the race will be decided.

(35:01):
Thursday night, the first Mayor Old debate. There'll be another
one six days later, but Thursday night, the first Mayor
Old debate that is coming Thursday night, it'll be Mamdanie'll
be he's good. Into the debate, he's very good. Curtis
will be very good. Curtis could hit him with a
knockout punch. You never know. Anything's possible. He may not,
but anything's possible. Cuomo will talk slow and it won't work,

(35:26):
and it'll look old and tired compared to these two.
And so if Curtis can land some blows and really
make a difference, that could turn the race around. Now
it's possible that Curtis is very good. But nothing changes.
And then now New York is famous. New York City
is famous for in its mayor all races. The whole

(35:48):
thing can change in the last couple of weeks. We've
seen that before many times in New York City, where
whatever race way, the race is added in the last
couple of weeks, it just all changes. It can all
change very fast New York City. I don't know exactly why,
but here is where that does happen. So it could
be the debate shakes everything up and things change. It

(36:08):
could be that nothing changes and then you're on track
to have a Mam Donnie victory. Cuomo we know is
not the one guy that can't beat mamdani is Cuomo.
We've seen it in the primary. He got just slapped
around by him in two debates. He lost by a
lot of votes in the primary. So Thursday night, if

(36:28):
anything's going to change, that's where it'll change. Now, Mam
Donnie's been doing a lot of interviews, and the other
thing is Mam Donnie's been sort of hedging. He normally
was given clear answers, but uh Buck Sexton texting with
we love Buck. Your Cuomo is excellent, Thank you very much.

(36:52):
You know, I'm listening to these radio interviews and here's
the other thing. You know, you're dealing with a weasel
when when they talk they ask them, so questions and
answer like, what about the nursing homes? Did you kill
ten thousand people? A lot of people ask me about
the nursing homes. Look, do I think I made a mistake? Maybe?

(37:16):
Do I think I might have done things differently? Maybe
he's been saying that a lot lately. First, he tried
this explanation about the nursing homes. It's the dumbest decision
ever in the history of decisions. Can you imagine people
have got the virus they just tested positive, you send
them into the nursing homes where these old, vulnerable people

(37:36):
are living. It was the dumbest thing ever. So he's
tried for the last week this explanation of well, other
states did it too, We're not the only plenty of
states did it. Yeah, but it wasn't the same and
it wasn't like this here. I mean, this was like,
you killed ten thousand people. The decision was genocidal. So

(37:59):
he's now doing this I wouldn't call it an apology. Look,
did I make a mistake, Would I do it differently? Maybe? Yes?
And he's doing this fudging thing where he says, look,
I still have nightmares at night. I can remember all
my conversations with those families, he says that a lot. Now,

(38:21):
in all my conversations with these families, I'd like to
find somebody. Please find one family that he had a
Yet there's no family that says they've ever had a
conversation with Cuomo. He's changed his tune on bail reform. Hey,
our friend Sid interviewed him this morning and Sid at
one point, good for Sid, he brought up Kathy Hokel.

(38:44):
You know, Kathy Holk has been a horrible governor, and
he said, she's terrible. You picked her. You're the one
that gave us Kathy Hokel, you know, the lieutenant governor.
You picked her. And Cuomo said, yeah, you re elected her.
So that's a good comeback, very snappy comeback. First time
history was made. Cuomo actually had a snappy comeback. But

(39:07):
he's going to get hit with all this stuff and
Curtis will pound away on him. So if anything's going
to change, it'll change thirsty.

Speaker 11 (39:13):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (39:14):
Now here's another factor with this peace agreement in the
Middle East. This affects the mayoral race. It's going to
affect a few elections around the country. A lot of
these races are all about how horrible israel Is and
Gaza people are starving, being slaught Well, now that that's over,
this kind of takes that issue off the table, and

(39:34):
it was a big one from Amdani. So he's going
to lose this issue. In fact, if he tries this again,
the suffering and the Palestinians, the suffering in Gaza, if
he tries pulling that you can point out, well, then
thank Trump, He's the one that solved the problem. He's
bringing that problem to a complete conclusion. And there's a
lot of governor's races for that. That's a big issue,

(39:55):
you know, Israel Palestine. So it's a tough thing peace
agreement because it's brilliant, it's wonderful, it's an amazing negotiation,
an amazing accomplishment by Trump. It's tough for the Democrats
because they have to actually try to say something nice.
Chuck Schumer White, I mean, so his glasses were flogging up,
but he had to say something.

Speaker 9 (40:15):
If disagreement is implemented, then finally, after two years of
immense suffering, the hostages could soon be free. There could
be a ceasefire, and the victims of this painful conflict
can start to rebuild their lives.

Speaker 2 (40:30):
Yeah, now they're waiting to see exactly how this unfolds,
it does actually work, So this weekend they can't really
go after the present because we don't know. We've got
to see will this really work? Will it be done?
So let's say it everything goes well. On the weekend,
Trump goes to Egypt, they make the deal, everything signed Monday,
they release the hostages Tuesday. There's a big ceremony for

(40:54):
the hostage. This will be great. Then it's the after
that the media has to try to figure out how
to attack Trump on this. They will find a way.
How will they attack them? I don't know. Well, maybe
listen to the Schumer thing again.

Speaker 9 (41:07):
If disagreement is implemented, then finally after two years.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
So maybe that'll be the attack line. If he could
do this, why didn't he do this two years ago?
Why did he wait two years to do this? They'll
try something like that. They'll try a few things to
see what sticks. Hey, Jimmy Kimmel's done a bunch of interviews. Kimmel,
he was on Bloomberg. So when it comes to the
big lie, he told that's how he got in all
the trouble. He lied about the Charlie kirkshooter, claiming it

(41:33):
was a maga guy. Total lie, total distortion, total fake news.
He can't admit that though he's on this Bloomberg interview
and he said, well, it was mischaracterized. I was distorted
what I said. Now we can see the clip. He
out and out lied. He deliberately lied on the show.
But he's mischaracterized a store. So he just won't give

(41:55):
in on this now. The other thing is he said
he would love to have Donald Trump on his show,
so he basically invited Trump to come on his show.
Now you might say, well, that's great, he should do that.
Trump would be great. He can handle Kimmel. This would
be he should definitely do well. He said. The problem is,
why would Kimmel do this, because in all the controversy
when he came back on the air, he got six

(42:16):
point five million viewers, not as usual one million. He
got six and a half million. He was suddenly number one,
He suddenly had great ratings. Well, it took a few days,
but it quickly went back to one million. He lost
the whole bounce that he got. He lost it all
and went back to his miserable ratings. So that's why
he wants to have Trump on, because then he could

(42:36):
go to twenty million or what's the all time record
late night television. I think it was Johnny Carson Tiny
Tim's wedding nineteen sixty nine that went to forty nine million.
That's the all time record for a late night show.
He thinks he could do that with Trump. So if Trump,

(42:56):
you know, he'd want to do it, but he wouldn't.
Why help Kimmel, Why help Kimmel. So he should say
to him, I'll do an interview with you, but let's
do it on Sean Hannity Show. Let's do it on
Let's do it on Fallon, give fallon the ratings. But
we'll see if anything comes to that invitation. Hey, a

(43:19):
lot of people in the center are going to be
suing Jack Smith, that bug eyed weirdo with the cape.
You know, he got their phone records, their phone calls.
But turning out, he got a lot of stuff. He
went into everybody's phone, got their GPS. He can see
everywhere they went, everywhere they went. You know, I'll see

(43:40):
you go into your iPhone. There's a lot of stuff
in there. There's got medical records. Most people have their medications.
There's all kinds of personal information in there, so they're
going to sue this guy like crazy. He's speaking of
medical You know a lot of people love taking ozempic.
There's three of them. There's a Let's the other one
Manjaro's Zeppa. There's like a bunch of these. The problem

(44:01):
is ozampic. You get what's called ozempic face. It starts
looking old, your face looks old, and it starts sagging
it you get they call it ozempic face. Now d
disappointing out. You'd get ozempic teeth. It plays around with
the healthier teeth and your gums. Now, apparently there's another
discovery they've just come up with. If you're on ozampic

(44:21):
and then you need medical imaging, you know, a cat scan,
an MRI, it can distort the results and give you
false results and you can get misdiagnosed with a long
explanation as to why. Too complicated. But that's another problem
to ozambic. Hey, oh, hey, a great a great guy
died yesterday, Shelley Fireman. He was one of the great

(44:44):
restaurant tours in New York. He was ninety three. Right
over there, he tried to read de Larte. That was
one of his restaurants, Red Eye Grill, Fiorilla, right across
from Lincoln Center. Through the years, Bond forty five in
the theater discre This guy was a great restaurant owner,
a very colorful guy in real life. And I'm leaving

(45:04):
that there's a bunch of restaurants he owned. Ninety three
just died yesterday, but I saw him not long ago.
He was in the restaurant holding a meeting, working at
ninety three infect fifty seventh three. He just opened this
new restaurant, the Paris Bistro, Paris Bar, whatever it's called.
But he's ninety two opening a brand new restaurant. That's
the way you gotta be. Cape working, never stop. Hey,

(45:27):
when we come back, we'll take some calls. Eight hundred
three two one zero seven ten is the number eight
hundred three to two one zero seven ten.

Speaker 10 (45:36):
If you're listening to Mark on the iHeartRadio app, save
time and tap the preset button.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
Now.

Speaker 10 (45:42):
Now back to the Mark Simonde Show on woor.

Speaker 2 (45:47):
Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to Dave in Chicago. Dave,
how you doing.

Speaker 14 (45:53):
Good morning, Mark, I'm doing very well, Thank you.

Speaker 7 (45:55):
Mark.

Speaker 14 (45:55):
I have a proposition that I think would be best
suited for Allen's Wide Bell in your next interview, and
it has to do with writing scripts for television. Now,
the major networks ABC, NBC, CBS, et cetera, they restrict
time and scripts because they have to allow for commercials. Yeah,
canals such as HBO, you know they run shows like this.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
Well, it's the proposal.

Speaker 14 (46:20):
Well, they vary in length and they can include profanity
and nudities. So essentially, for writers, is the easier to write.

Speaker 2 (46:28):
Oh that's a good question. Yeah, we'll ask them that
next time. You know, in the old days of the fifties,
I love Lucy the Honeymooners. When you wrote the script
for the sitcom, it was about I think it was
twenty four minutes because they had to leave six minutes
for commercials during the half hour. Do you know that
by these Seinfeld days it was down to like sixteen

(46:48):
minutes because they kept adding and and adding commercials, So
a sitcom script was really only about sixteen seventeen minutes.
Now it's kind of different because the television is dying.
There's very few view is left on television primetime even primetime,
so it's less commercial, so the scripts are probably getting longer.
Now let's go to Rich in Myrtle Beach. Rich how

(47:08):
you doing.

Speaker 15 (47:10):
Thanks thanks to Mark. That's a good point he just
brought up to go fellow from Chicago. I mean, just
think about how they will four complete stories for four
characters in fifteen or sixteen minutes. Really was unbelievable. You know,
I got a lot of joy, you say, watching Martha Radish,
that old hag. Have to actually give Donald credit some
Donald Trump some credit, and it's going to by the
time he's done, he's going to deserve that last space

(47:32):
of Mount Rushmore. Never mind the Nobel Peace Prize. Put
him on the mountain. Yeah, that's president we.

Speaker 2 (47:36):
Ever had all right knowing him. Apparently you can't put
somebody on Mount Rushmore. They keep explaining to you. Who knows,
Maybe it's just partisan nonsense, that the the rock you
can't you can't carve anything. Knowing Trump, he'll start a
second Mount Rushmore somewhere else. He'll do a second Mount Rushmore.

(47:59):
He'll put Reagan, he'll put himself. Actually a good idea,
actually a good idea second Mount Rushmore. Let's go to
Pat in Westchester. Pat, how are you doing?

Speaker 12 (48:09):
Hey?

Speaker 8 (48:09):
Mark?

Speaker 16 (48:10):
You have terrific guests on you have each week, Liz Peak,
Miranda Divine. The one thing that you were talking about
Trump derangement syndrome. And I think some of it could
be jealousy if you look at that he has a
beautiful wife, he's amassed billions of dollars in wealth, and
he's a national icon and you know, a world icon.

(48:33):
So it could be in a jealousy.

Speaker 2 (48:35):
Yeah, I don't think it's jealous so much because you
look at these Trump haters. There are all these old
hag women that live on the Upper West Side. They
don't want to be in a glitzy Trump Tower apartment.
They don't want to be married to a supermodel there.
I think Miranda Divine, if you didn't hear last hour,
it was fascinating. Will follow up on this. She's been
talking to a psychiatrist like doctor Keith Ablow, and it's

(48:57):
daddy issues. It's a super strong, forceful, dominant male that
they can't stand. And if you look back on presidents,
first of all, you have to put on this fake
formality and Pa, you can't just you know, be an
outrageous kind of guy like Trump is. You can't in

(49:19):
real life. That's where it comes. But could she might
have put her finger on it. You know, every great politician,
no matter how strong and they are, of great presidents
Bill Clinton, they show a lot of vulnerability and the humbleness.
And George Bush could look very vulnerable at times and humble.
And Obama, yeah he could look humble at times and

(49:43):
show some vulnerability and self deprecating and all that. But
they all could do that, but not Trump. There's no
vulnerability anywhere. It's like the roughest, toughest, strongest, most masculine, dominating.
It just sets off those women. They can't deal with it.
Let's go to Alan Yonkers Al, how you doing.

Speaker 12 (50:05):
Good?

Speaker 8 (50:06):
Mark?

Speaker 13 (50:06):
Thanks for taking my call. You know, I just wanted
your personal opinion. You know, I saw Mike Lawler when
he stopped the minority leader Jefferies, and not that it
was a political stunt. I just thought it was inappropriate
because of security reasons. As you know, the minority leader
being in the leadership has Secret Service protection, and I

(50:28):
just started put the Secret Service in uncomfortable positions.

Speaker 2 (50:31):
Yeah, would you agree or do There's no security problem.
They can protect them but what it was is, you
know how always tell you don't argue with Democrats. If
you got a friend who hates don't argue because it'll
be like that lawler Jeffrey's conversation. You're just yelling at
each other for twenty minutes. You're not going to change
their mind. Don't even bother. It's like arguing with a statue.
I mean, don't bother. Don't argue with him. So when

(50:54):
they say to it happens to me all the time.
I was with this group of an entertainment business people
and one of them says, this is the worst nightmare
we've ever lived through this Trump. I can't sleep at night.
And it looked at me and go, yeah, me too,
me too. Just yes, I'm to death. Change the subject,
get out of there. Don't even try to argue with them,

(51:17):
whatever they think. Just let it go. Hey, today would
have been John Lennon's eighty fifth birthday. It would have
been eighty five today. You know, it's interesting some people
you just never saw them get old. A lot of them,
you see. You know Billy Joel, you see him now.
You wouldn't if you came in a time machine. From

(51:38):
nineteen seventy eight to now, you wouldn't recognize Billy Joel's.
It did totally different looking. McCartney obviously looks his age,
well not really, but he looks older, but he still
looks like McCartney, still sounds like McCartney. But if you
die young, people never see you age. It's like Jack Kennedy,
John F. Kennedy. We always see him as young, dynamic president.

(52:00):
We never saw him get like Ted Kennedy, old and
plump and boom. So John Lennon would have been eighty
five years old today. Hey, when we come back, Ed
Rollins will be with us. The greatest political analyst, the
Dean himself. We'll talk to him next on seven to
ten wo R.

Speaker 1 (52:16):
Mark Simone on seven w R.

Speaker 2 (52:23):
Well, let's talk to the Dean himself, the best political
analyst of all. Nobody has run more campaigns, more successful
campaigns than he has. Ed Rollins is with us, Ed Rollins,
how you doing doing well?

Speaker 11 (52:37):
Thank you? Monarch Tivy going on the world.

Speaker 2 (52:39):
So this piece deal, if all goes according to plan
and it happens, what will the Democrats do? How are
they attack him on this?

Speaker 11 (52:47):
Well, they won't be a attack on this they basically
have to plaud and I think the world is starting
to plaud completely. This will not happen if he had
to stepped in and pushed BB to the to the wall.
And I think it's a certain extent you've read that
argue about the stupidity of who got the Nobel Peace
Prize today. If this thing works, he's going to be

(53:08):
the one unanimously a year from now, the Peace Prize nominees.
He's supposed to be in by February. He was barely
president at the time. And I think this certain extent,
don't let the ediocy of the Peace Prize overshadow what
he's done. He's made this happen. He's about these forces
have been fighting, he said this for thousands of years together,

(53:29):
and he has to make it work now.

Speaker 2 (53:31):
So yeah, now, I know he's got a lot to do,
but I think he should also take up another task,
which is just wipe out this reputation of this Nobel
Peace Prize. It's a Democrat peace prize. It's a left
wing slanted I don't know how they still have this reputation,
but Donald Trump should try to take away that reputation
from don't you think well, I think.

Speaker 11 (53:49):
I think he probably will. I mean, who cares. Being
perfectly honest, you know, Jimmy Carter got it after he
was president, ten years after he left. Obama got it
before he really was president. You got you got the
peace Ward, and everybody said it was just because he
got elected. Uh, you know three months into his administration.
So the last American who really got to the deserved

(54:11):
was Jeddy Roosevelt Trump to stop the war.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
Yeah. Hey, the New Jersey race, it's Chindarelli against what's
the named Mickey Mikey Sheryl. They got in a big
fight and the she accused him of this and that
he's now says he's gonna sue her. Have you ever
heard of that one candidate suing another because of what
they said in the debate.

Speaker 11 (54:33):
And you know the problem with sus is that people
find out, you know, once you get beyond the rhetoric
of the initial case, then you have discovery and all
the rest of it. Then you know, her her counter
claim is going to be how did he how did
he get her federal documents that he shouldn't have had,
so you know, argue about the things about it. People
went to New Jersey and where she graduated in her class.

(54:56):
But there's circumstances work. She's a member of Congress, that
a lot of the ideas that probably won't work, and
he's got a lot of ideas that are going to
be challenged. And that's what the campaign will be about.

Speaker 8 (55:07):
Race though.

Speaker 2 (55:09):
Hey, a lot of these campaigns around the mayoral race
with Mondani and some of these governors race. A big
issue is Gaza, the treatment of the people in Gaza
Palestine's if this peace deal goes through, They're going to
lose that issue for the final weeks, aren't they.

Speaker 11 (55:21):
They are going to lose that issue, and hopefully there's
not lot other issues to come to the forefront. Uh,
there's a lot, a lot of plays right now in
the course system. Uh, Portland, the Chicago they putting troops around,
and the Supreme Court obviously back on the game again.
So uh, you know what you want no want to
do is you don't want to have these things faltered on.
You make sure that everything you're doing is the coordination.

(55:45):
And as you've heard me over and over again, I'm
a great believer in messages. And you have too many
things on the turny. Uh, just considered, lay your message
down right now. But getting the government back functioning again
is what's the most important. The president can stop that
or start that. But if you start having trouble with planes,

(56:07):
he starts having trouble with soldiers not getting paid, then
you really have a big issue.

Speaker 2 (56:13):
Yeah, Hey, the Mayrill race, the big debate is coming
up Thursday. Now, let's say Curtis just hits mom down
and would knockout blows unbelievable moments they go viral? Could
that change the race?

Speaker 11 (56:25):
Anybody watches it?

Speaker 2 (56:26):
Well, it's social media. It could go viral all over
the place. It's possible it.

Speaker 11 (56:30):
Will go it will go back that. But nobody watches
these debates anymore. And it's just the number of the
numbers in New Jersey debates this week and Virginua urdle,
and but social media does play mid Molly, and Curtis
has to make the case. You know, he's serving the
factory at this point, being a loyal candidate. Calmo got

(56:53):
all of Adams, but he has to. He's still thirteen
fourteen points a hime, which is a pretty good place
to be. And tell the problems Mondali's getting. You take
people under fifty you've got to majory of that vote.
He's got a majority of the Asian voters, Black voters,
which almost strongst and so my senses, he's still I'd

(57:15):
much rather have his campaign if I was in the campaign,
I don't want to run a socialist campaign. But but
he's still pretty well positioned.

Speaker 2 (57:22):
Yeah. Hey, now you've been the.

Speaker 11 (57:24):
Best erratic something dramatic as to happen.

Speaker 2 (57:26):
You've been the best campaign consultant for years if you
were working for Cuomo, wouldn't you say, I don't know
how you say it, but when you say to them, hey,
you got to talk a little faster, You got to
be able to have a little more energy, you look tired,
wouldn't Could you tell him that.

Speaker 11 (57:37):
I've been terribly disappointed in the campaign. As I told you,
I'm not a Cuomo fan, but i'm just as an
observer at this point in time. I've seen one ad,
I've seen dozens of ads sort of mundabi, and you know,
I don't see any ground game as though it was
no Democratic Party operators that have been worked for him

(57:57):
at this point. Cuomo, and to a certain extent, how
do you win?

Speaker 8 (58:02):
Uh?

Speaker 11 (58:03):
You wing by being out there and being domatics, and
I'll say, you know, he's he's my father did, He's
what I did and now just more. But that's not
acceptable today. It's got a fifty two percent to some
Google reading. He's got to do something, bring it down.
He's got to do something. The verse the.

Speaker 2 (58:19):
You know.

Speaker 11 (58:20):
But I think he's the only one that obviously he
is liliable at this point in time.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
Yeah. Hey, we were talking before Miranda Divine and she's
been talking to psychologists. This Trump hatred, the people that
hate Trump. It's like a raging so psychiatrist said, it's
it's like a daddy issue. It's like he's too tough,
he's too masculine, he's too he shows no vulnerability anywhere. Ever.
It's too much. But what do you think.

Speaker 11 (58:46):
I think there's some truth that I mean there is.
There is a polarization, and it doesn't matter what he does.
He doesn't get any of those years back. And he's done.
He's been a very strong president. He's done a lot.
And then if you look at a just permierum a
progress in six seven months, he's made tremendous progress. He's

(59:07):
definitely defined redefine the president's rule. I mean he's the
elvist president for in history. Yeah, and people won't even
credit for it.

Speaker 2 (59:16):
Well, Ed Rollins, Uh, but you know every present, even
Nixon would show vulnerability. He would also you'd see him bowling,
you see him with the kids. He was like an
all American father. Trump does none of that. Do you
think he should do that, try to look more humble normal?

Speaker 11 (59:31):
I think a little hell, he would be a great
asset for him. I think a certain extent he's too
angry and he has too many, too many enemies that
he wants to take out. At this point in time,
he got to just be do it quietly, do it
pint the scenes, and just get out there and talk
about what I've done for the country, what I'm going
to continue to do for the country, and what I'm
going to do for the world. I mean, he's the

(59:52):
strongest leader in the world war today. In my sensus,
he gets is just distractions going and I think he's set.

Speaker 2 (01:00:01):
All right, Well you tell him. I'm not gonna tell.
But Ed Rollins, great, talking to you, great stuff, Keep
up the good work. Thanks for being with us, all right,
take care hey, Coming up at twelve noon, buck Sexton
Clay Travis. They do an excellent show every day. It's
from noon to three then three o'clock. He got the

(01:00:23):
most listened to radio show in America. Sean Hannity, Jesse
Kelly's on every night at six and now Jimmy Fallon
every night nine to midnight. Excellent show, very funny. You
love Jimmy Fayler. They say Fallon, Jimmy Fayla, Jimmy Fallon
wouldn't be so hot. But it's Jimmy Fayler, who's much
funnier than Jimmy Fallon. Great comedian, great talk show hosts.

(01:00:46):
But it's every weeknight. You can hear it tonight nine
to midnight, right here on seven to ten. Wor Mister
New York Marcalone on wre Well. Hey, you know we're
talking about the New Jersey governor's race, Chitarelli versus Mikey Cheryl.
You know they've spent seventy two million dollars already on

(01:01:08):
this governor's race. Seventy two million. I think that's an
all time record in New Jersey governor's race. So hey,
you're talking before about Jimmy Kimmel has said he would
love to have President Trump on his show. Now, the
problem is if Trump does that, it'll get record ratings.
Kimmel's show is very low rated, usually in third place.

(01:01:29):
Why give him such big ratings? And then they said,
I think the biggest ratings in the history of Late
Night was Tiny Tim's wedding nineteen sixty nine. The Tonight Show.
They've got forty nine million people, forty nine million on
the Tonight Show. But it turns out the record is
was actually Carson's final show when he signed off in

(01:01:49):
nineteen ninety two. That got fifty five million people. Fifty
five million. Think about that, fifty five million watching Carson
sign off and Seth Meyers now with the five hundred
thousand people or Jimmy Kimmel number one with one point
two million people. Times have changed. Hey, we're out of time,
