Speaker 1 (00:00):
Fly from midtown Manhattan.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Here comes the Mark Simone Show on seven ten wo R.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Well, the mayoral race. Will give you all the latest
all the latest polling information, all the latest info coming
up in just a second. We'll get to the World
Series last night. We'll get to Joe Biden. There's a
new report coming out about how really bad he was.
At the end, we'll get to the president's trip to Asia.
It's a pretty amazing trip. We'll get to a ballroom
(00:32):
derangement syndrome and more. Don't forget this is the last
week of daylight saving time, starting Sunday. It's going to
be dark out five point fifteen, five point thirty. It's
just terrible. It takes a lot of getting used to.
So where do we stand in the mayle race. Well,
it doesn't look good, Momdannie maintains a pretty comfortable lead.
(00:55):
And well, i'll give you the latest poll, the latest poll.
And again, these are not great polls. These are these
college polls which don't mean much of anything. But the
latest one, the latest college poll shows Andrew Cuomo ten
points behind. Now, there was a previous poll. Again, these
are all junk polls, but it showed him twenty points behind.
(01:18):
So you know you're in real trouble when you're cheering
that you rose up to only ten points behind. Ten
points behind is still ten points behind. Now, what's interesting
in this poll is if Sleewood dropped out, we don't
think Curtis needs to drop out second to solve Cuomo's problems.
(01:38):
His unlikeability, his terrible track record as governor turned off
a lot of people. That's why he's been just stumbling
through this campaign. You know, in the had he not
been in the primary, we might be in a different place.
Had he stayed out of this, Eric Adams would have
run in the Democratic primary, and who knows, he might
have had a much better shot at beating Mom down
(02:00):
in the primary. We know one thing that Cuomo absolutely
screwed up in the primaries. He got killed in both debates.
He lost by a lot in the primary, had nothing
to do with the wrong choice. He lost by a
lot in the popular vote, and because of him, we
got Mam Donni as the Democratic nominee. Maybe Eric Adams
could have stopped him had there been no Cuomo. But
(02:23):
and if Cuomo got out of the race, there is
one poll that came out on Friday. The only poll
that at that time was after the debates that showed
Curtis would do better against Mam Donni, then Cuomo would
by two points if it were a two man race.
But here's the latest in this poll. If Curtis were
to drop out now, Cuomo in the latest poll ten
(02:45):
points behind us Mam Donnie forty four percent, Cuomo thirty
four percent. So Mam Donni has a ten point lead
now in this polling in all the data, if you
go through it, if Curtis were to drop out, only
thirty six percent of his votes would go to Cuomo,
and they'd surveyed these people pretty carefully, so out of
the courtis y wild vote. If he dropped out, Cuomo
(03:06):
would only get thirty six percent of that vote, which
would give him another four percent. So what that means
is if if Curtis were out of the race in
this poll, it would be Mam Donni forty four percent,
Cuomo thirty eight percent. So still not good. The only
thing that could change all of this is massive turnout,
(03:29):
and it looks like we're getting that so far. Turnout
in the early voting, which is now three days. This
will be day four early voting is almost five hundred
percent above normal, above the last few elections. So if
there's massive turnout, that could change things, and that depends
who turns out. It could be you know, these crazy
(03:50):
twenty somethings who love Mom Donni. But pole watchers are
saying it looks like boomers gen xers are dominating. That's
people over fifty and they generally don't go for Mom Donnie.
So in fact, some poll watchers are saying that they
believe sixty six h sixty percent of the ballots people
(04:12):
over fifty, So that could be a help to Cuomo
or Curtis. So we're up to about three three hundred
and fifty thousand voters so far, So if that continues,
we're on track to get record, you know, close to
two million votes, which is extremely high turnout. That's how
(04:32):
Giuliani beat Dinkins, very very high turnout. Republicans have won
five of the last eight mayoral elections, but it requires
extremely high turnout to do it. Now, you could argue,
some will argue, well, you can't count Bloomberg because he
spent something like one hundred million of his own money
for a huge turnout operation. Yeah. Maybe, but Republicans can win.
(04:57):
So Mam Donnie caught in a huge lie. Now everybody's
waiting to see if this is a big factor. We
don't know how many people are watching this, paying attention
to this, how focused there on this incident. But Mamdanie
got caught in a huge lie. He told the story
about his aunt after nine to eleven. She had problems
riding the subway because she wore the Muslim garb and
(05:21):
she would get stairs. And who knows what else but
this poor aunt to his on the subway in New
York right after nine to eleven, How tough it was.
He told this tear jerking story. People checked his aunt
wasn't in New York after nine to eleven. She lived
ten thousand miles away in another continent. She wasn't here.
(05:42):
And then it turns out his aunt never wears a
he job, never wears any Muslim garb, just looks like
anybody else on the subway. So a major, major lie.
Now this is all proven detailed that he out and
out lied about this aunt. He had to confess yesterday.
So he confessed that all of this is true. It
(06:04):
wasn't his aunt. But then he made up a whole
other story, Well, it wasn't his aunt, it was a
very distant cousin of his father. Well who is it,
Well she's dead, So it sounds like a convenient excuse
that there's a very distant relative who's dead. And generally
you know who your aunt is and you don't confuse
(06:26):
them with any very distant relative of your father. So
it's clearly a total out and out lie, absolute lie.
And then this whole thing about the Muslim discrimination having
a problem in being in New York being Muslim, it's
kind of ridiculous. It's a huge Muslim population in New York.
It's eleven percent. The Jewish population is also eleven percent,
(06:49):
so they're pretty much equal. The Jewish population and the
Muslim population are equal. They're both eleven percent. And if
you check with the police, there's no reports of anti
Muslim attacks. But if you check with the police, there's
thousands and thousands of report of anti Jewish, anti Semitic attacks.
I don't have to tell you've heard about millions of them.
There's thousands of incidents of that, No incidents with the
(07:12):
New York City Police of any anti Muslim activity. So
the whole thing is a complete, fake, ridiculous issue that
he's been using. Now, Cuomo, he's been looking better. He
was good in the debate, the last debate, he thinks,
and that really just was horrible. In the two primary debates,
(07:32):
first general election debate, he was bad. People think he
got injected in one of those Joe Biden injections to
give him some energy, wake him up. He was pretty
good in the last debate. Again, it's all about turnout.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
In the primary. The turnout was totally different than they thought,
much younger, and the younger vote was a much higher percentage,
and that skewed.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
All the polls.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yeah, Now, public polls are just junk. They're really flamensy
poles in private campaigns usually spend a fortune and get
the real serious polling companies to come in and do
of deadly accurate polls. Now Cuomo hasn't done that. Curtis
hasn't done that. We think Mamdani has and people are
noticing he's running a ton of TV ads, a ton
(08:19):
of social media ads, a lot of advertising, a lot
of commercials. They're pretty much not attacking Cuomo in them.
They're about affordability, but they're not Cuomo attack ads, that
would indicate that in his data he's not seeing a
big problem from Cuomo. If Cuomo were really getting close,
you'd see him run attack ads like crazy. So far,
he has not done that. He still keeps talking about
(08:40):
affordability too often.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
We think of affordability as a young person's problem of
whether you can build a life here. But there's so
many who are asking themselves whether they can keep a
life here.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Yeah. So and again, if affordability is the problem, if
this is a crisis housing affordability, if it's a disaster
here in New York, well that would be the Democrat's
fault because they've controlled every inch of New York government
for fifteen years, Democrat mayor, Democrat governor, Democrat City Council,
Democrat Legislature, both houses. So if affordability is such a crisis,
(09:12):
blame them. If it's that bad, the logical thing to
do would be a switch parties, try somebody else. So
Cuomo keeps he's been campaigning. You know, he took like
ten days off Vanish, but he's out there campaigning again.
I feel it. I feel it on the street.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
I continue to be confident in our campaign as well
as in our outreach to voters above the age of
fifty five. And also, I will not allow myself to
become complacent.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Yeah. Well, and you know Curtis. Curtis been campaigning nineteen
hours a day, just one appearance every hour, everywhere. He's
just been in all five boroughs, every neighborhood.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
Like it or not, I'm running to the end. That's
what democracy is about. Let people vote the billionaires. They're
not going to choose the mayor. The inside is, Oh,
the influences are not going to He's the mayor.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
And the people are Yeah, that's a good Oh, he's right.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
New York City is best known as a city that
locks up toothpaste and does not lock up criminals.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
And that's something.
Speaker 7 (10:10):
Y'all do when I get elected mayor on November four.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Yeah, it's ridiculous. Criminals are all let loose thanks to
our da Alvin Bragg, who you can get rid of
next Tuesday, on election day, vote for Maud Maren the Republican.
It's very important. Get out there and get rid of
Alvin Bragg. Vote for Maud Maren the Republicans, big, big,
big crime fighter, long history, and get rid of Alvin Bragg.
(10:33):
On Tuesday. But this whole thing of letting the criminals
run loose, you can shoplift. It's all. You can thank
Cuomo for that, with his no bail, no jail. Also
with his closing the prisons. Rememory bragged about how he
closed all the prisons and let everybody out. So here's
more of Mom Donnie.
Speaker 6 (10:51):
Together, New York. We're going to freeze the.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Did you get in New York?
Speaker 6 (10:56):
We're gonna make buses fast.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And freeze the rent. He has no authority to freeze
the rent anywhere, make busses free. He has absolutely no
control over the buses. It's run by the MTA, which
is controlled by the governor.
Speaker 6 (11:12):
Let our words ring out so loud tonight that Andrew
Cuomo can hear them in his eight thousand dollars a
month apartment. Let them ring so loud that his puppet
master in the White House hears us. New York is
not for saved.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Apparently it is because Mom Donnie took tens of millions
of dollars from all these sorrows types. Nobody had more
funding from billionaires than all sorts of special interests than
Mom Donnie. Did you knowice he took the shot at
Cuomo in Westchester. So the problem with Cloma's got a
lot of problems running. He's got terrible track record as governor,
got more baggage than Paris Hilton. And people remember all
(11:55):
these horrible things as governor, from closing Indian Point to
killing all the seniors and the nursing homes, to creating
the crime wave, the no bail, no jail, to all
all this stuff. I won't even read you the whole
list of the long list, not to mention he picked
Kathy Hockle. He's the one that stuck us with Kathy Hockle.
He chose her for us. So it's a terrible track
(12:17):
record as governor. And he's also, as Mom Donnie was
pointing out there, up in Westchester. He's the first mayoral
candidate who doesn't live in New York City, not a
New York City guy. His whole adult life, he's lived
in Westchester. He's been in the suburbs his whole adult life.
We've never seen that before. We had mayors that have
been born somewhere else, but they've always spent their entire
(12:38):
adult life living in New York City. Hey, even Mike Johnson,
speaker of the House weighing in on the raid.
Speaker 8 (12:45):
We can't allow a rise of Marxist and far left
activist in one party to shut down the entire operation
of the federal government. And that is exactly what they
are allowing them to do. The Democrats have got to
come their senses. You can endorse communist all you want,
at least keep the government operating.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Yeah, so again Cuomo, had he not been in the race,
everything might have been different. Eric Adams is a pretty
good campaigner. He might have had a better shot in
the primary and knocked out Mom, Donnie and then Cuomo.
It's all about the campaign. He hasn't been out there.
He hasn't He still hasn't opened a campaign office. It
(13:22):
doesn't that much of a staff. He's not a lot
of appearances, not doing much. And he's got this whole
thing about get everybody else out of the race, which
is when you got to do that, you know you're
in trouble. Remember Donald Trump in the primaries, he had
we have fifteen guys running against him. He didn't force
anybody out. The last time we saw that happen was
(13:43):
when Joe Biden was running and he couldn't win. So
to get him the nomination. The Democrats forced everybody out
of the race. Remember the day before South Carolina Elizabeth
Warren Withdrew, Buddha Jedge Withdrew Sanders Withdrew. They ordered everybody
out of the race. That's the only way Biden could win.
Trying that. Now they're ordering Curtis out of the race,
(14:03):
which is ridiculous. You know, Cuomo did that when he
ran for governor. When he was running for governor, David Patterson,
very popular, was going to be a candidate against him,
and he couldn't beat Patterson, so they had the Obama
administration get Patterson out of the race, which they did.
I've talked to Patterson. He's confirmed that although yesterday Patterson
endorsed Cuomo, that.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
Is clearly advantageous to the former governor. That the senior vote,
which had been dwindling, is coming back almost with love
rhythmatic proportions.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
What was that word love? Madic Well, I see that's
one smart guy. I don't know what the hell that means,
but I guess it has to do with a labyrinth. No,
I don't know algorithm. I don't know what it means.
But Patterson's a great and I've had Patterson had run,
I think we'd all vote for him. He would have
been a much better candidate than Cuomo. So again, we
(15:00):
don't know about these polls. They're not the greatest polls.
Anything could change. Also, don't go by the betting markets,
the poly markets. People look at this betting market. These
are just amateur's betting and it's usually based on the poles.
And one of the reasons those betting markets don't work
very well. And you'll know whatever it says, it doesn't matter.
Let's say something else in two days. They just move
(15:20):
up and down and up and down. They don't really
predict anything. Whoever bets the most money moves the market
the most. And like the poly market, there's four big
players who bet so much money that it's whatever these
four guys think that moves it more than anything. Anyway,
we got a lot to get to you, Bill, O'Reilly.
We'll see what he thinks. We'll talk to him in
a couple of minutes. We'll take some calls. Next eight
(15:41):
hundred three to two one zero seven ten is the
number eight hundred three two one zero seven ten in
Mark on demand. By setting a preset for his podcast,
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Now back to Mark Simon on wor.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Well, that's takes the calls. You know, we get the
people pop from all over the country. But let me
see if I can find some New York City callers. First,
let's go to Phil and Queens. Phil. How you doing hey?
Speaker 10 (16:12):
Mark?
Speaker 11 (16:13):
I think Curtis is gonna win, and quite frankly, Cuomo
helped destroy the city. Mondamine will build on that and
make it worse. And I drive around the city quite
a bit. I see Curtis signs where I didn't expect to,
and I'm gonna give me another moment. There's a reverse
(16:33):
barometer of how this selection is going. Even though a
lot of people don't view New York One, they are
so in the bag for the Democrats.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yeah no, no, nobody sees Nobody sees New York One.
But a better rehearse barometer always follow the big money
donors because they always get it wrong every time. They
have an incredible track record of always getting it wrong.
So the big big money donors are behind Cuomo. So
just bear that mind. Let's see you in New York City.
Here's Bill and Brooklyn. Bill, how you doing him?
Speaker 10 (17:02):
Mark? I'm supporting President Trump in the mayoral election. He
doesn't want us to vote for Curtis. We're gonna have
to throw Curtis under the bus and go with the Democrat.
He's rather a.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Democratic than the Democrat.
Speaker 10 (17:13):
Is Mam donni no a Democrats Democrats democrat, not the
communist Democrat.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
I don't know if you can make that case. First
of all, Cuomo is not at all a Democrat. He's
running on a third party ticket. He's not the Democratic nominee.
Democrats rejected him in the primary. And when he was
governor he was as far left as mam donnie with
his no bail, no jail, closed the prisons.
Speaker 10 (17:35):
But he believes in capitalism. Mark, that's important.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Yeah, No, you're right about that. The argument is that
Mam Donnie would be worse, but Cuomo would be just
as bad. Cuomo, if you check his record as governor,
was so far to the left, crazy, woke crazy. Uh.
But again, he's not the Democratic nomine If you're voting,
don't say vote for the Democrat because that would be
mam donnie in the race. Mam Donnie's Democratic candidate curts
(18:01):
the Republican candidate. Cuomo running on a third party, which
nobody could probably name. Let's go six and one. Let's
go to Ron in Texas. Ron, how you doing? Wait
a minute, there you go, Ron, how you doing?
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Oh?
Speaker 12 (18:15):
Pretty good. There's something that's missing about Cuomo. He's got
a bucalo problems, and one of them is people missing
the pole board that he's put into place.
Speaker 5 (18:28):
Half is still there.
Speaker 10 (18:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
No, that's another good point. Cuomo was as far left
as mom Donnie when he was governor. He replaced the
whole parole board with these far left woke kooks. They've
let out everybody, including they think about this. His parole
board let out forty three cop killers and that's just
an example of how he governs. Let's go to Jerry
in Greenwich. Jerry, how you doing?
Speaker 12 (18:51):
I'm doing well, Mark, thank you for taking my call.
I met Camillo yesterday, Insider down.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Fred Camillo is the mayor of Grantweed. She's the best mayor.
They call it the first selectman. But everybody make sure
to win. Vote for Fred Camillo on Tuesday. Make sure
you vote for him.
Speaker 12 (19:07):
I'm definitely working for him. I mean, you know, I
asked him to give me two signs for his support,
and I put him on my property on North Street,
which is really really nice. And I support my friend
Heather for a tax collector. So I'm a great supporter
of Camillo and Heather.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Yeah, everybody Greenwich vote for Fred Camillo, best mayor they had.
Speaker 12 (19:29):
He's a great man and a great guy.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
All right, thanks for calling. Let's go to sal in
Long Island.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Sal.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
How you doing good?
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Good morning Mark, Mark. I don't want to change the
subject too much from the campaign, but I wanted your
opinion on how do you feel about bringing back the draft?
So these eighteen year olds would learn respect, learn a career,
possibly learn that they just they can't eat with Mommy
makes them all the time, and they will learn to
be adults and turn out to be men after two
(19:59):
years of being in the well.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
It sounds good on paper. It sounds good on paper,
but it can't happen because nobody's going to campaign about
bringing back the draft. You'd you'd get killed in an
election if that was your platform. And Democrats aren't going
to bring back the draft. They don't like the military.
Republicans would worry it would kill any chance of getting elected.
But it's a good idea.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
I think I'm sorry. I think President Trump would be
all for it though, and that would bring back respect
and patriotism. Also, that's what we had at one time,
and that was one of the reasons we had it.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Yeah, but again, bring back the draft. You probably can't
get elected. But President Trump's been very good on military recruiting.
Recruiting just stopped under Joe Biden because they went so
woke and you know, trans or whatever they went to,
it pretty much dried up. That's one reason you wanted
Pete Hexath. Hexath is very good at that. The one
thing he's done, he's dramatically increased recruiting by thousands of percent.
(20:56):
I mean he's just recruiting is now through the roof,
back where we wanted it. Let's go to Andy in
New Jersey. Andy, how you doing, Hey?
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Mark The word that Governor Patterson was trying to spit
out with logarithmic, but even if you could pronounce it,
it didn't make any sense because logarithmic increases slower than linear.
What he wanted to say is an exponential increase, which
is much much faster than linear.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Well, he's a very smart guy, Patterson, but you got
to watch those words. Well, I don't need to give
him any advice. He knows that a speaking public. But
you got to watch that, that gibberish kind of what
So it's logarithmic versus exponential exponentially.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
Yeah, yeah, logarithmic is slow. Exponential is very fast.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Oh, logarithmic is slow, exponential is fast. All right, let
me just write that down because I'm never going to
use that anywhere. Who's going to know what the hell
I'm talking about. Hey, well, Bill O'Reilly will be with
us next. Lots to talk to him about the mayoral race,
the World Series. Last night, eighteen innings. The game went
till two fifteen in the morning. Anyway, A lot to
(21:58):
get to next on seventy's.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
The Marks among Show on seven ten WR.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Well Bill O'Reilly, of course, the number one TV anchor
for decades. You can watch his show the TV shows
on you just go to Bill O'Reilly dot com or
watch YouTube. He's got some great stuff on YouTube and
his latest best selling book. He's the biggest nonfiction author
on earth. The latest best selling book is Confronting Evil.
It is an amazing book. You gotta get it, and
(22:28):
you get his column. Everything's at Bill O'Reilly dot com. Bill, O'Reilly,
How you doing.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Busy this morning? Just like you Mark? Right?
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah? Well, hey President in China, you made the trip first,
you were in China meeting with all these leaders there.
What is he What is he in for there?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I think? Well, I got a text from him at
one in the morning's time and he says that everything's
going very well. And uh, I'm the scenes that Chinese
are cooperating. So I was happy to hear that. I'm
making a point tonight on my broadcast and No Spin
(23:08):
News that there are people in America I'm starting to
really teem me off. They want them to fail over there.
You know, they hate him so much. And I know
some of these people, and now I have a moral
quandary because I don't really respect that. If you are
(23:29):
going to put your hatred for an individual, whether it's
Donald Trump or Notack Obama, anybody above the welfare of
your own country and your own family by extension, then
I don't respect you, and so then I have to
reevaluate how I'm going to deal with that person. Now,
I don't think that's common in say a large amount
(23:55):
of people believe that, but certainly a significant amount of
people do, and you see it reflected in MS and CNN.
In fact, we're reporting a story tonight. I believe it's true,
although it's anonymously sore. So I always tell the audience
that got to bring him bit of skepticism when you
(24:16):
read about anonymous sore stories that the head of CNN,
Mark Thompson, actually ordered his anchors to knock it off
about the White House renovations and start covering the most
important story of the year, Trump's Asia trip. He had
to order his own people to do that. That's a
(24:39):
pretty sad state of affairs.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
I think, Yeah, this ballroom derangement syndrome, it's just ridiculous.
And you're right, big things are happening in this trip, big,
big trade deals with mineral deals. It should be covered NonStop.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
It's enormous and so far he's two for two Asia
and Japan. And the reason that he's succeeding is because
people fear him. So these countries in a like, Okay,
I want to give America a break. That's not really
the mentality. Mentality is I gotta get a deal with
(25:18):
this man, because if we don't, then our economy is
going to be hurt, particularly in Japan. They know they
have to calm it down. When I was in Japan
in May, I did not see one American vehicle. And
I traveled around a bit, there wasn't one American vehicle
on their streets that There were German cars and Korean cars,
(25:44):
but no American vehicles. What was that Because the Japanese
historically have kept out American cars from their marketplace, which
Trump's changing all of that. And so I was happy
to see the initial couple of days go well, But
the big day is Thursday.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
The meeting was she Yeah, well, uh, there's no reason
to think he won't do very well with she for
all the reasons you just said. And a lot of
people think there also might be a wink in a
nod about Taiwan or something like that.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
There's gotta be some accommodation made to the Chinese about Taiwan.
You're absolutely right. The American government cannot take a hard line.
There's a way to do this. But it's so emotional now,
particularly what happened in Hong Kong. You know, in the
beginning of Hong Kong is going to be autonomous, and
(26:44):
it's going to be part of China, but they're gonna
let the capitalistic system flow there. And then of course
the Chinese said, I don't think something. We will violate
every treaty, and that could happen in Taiwan, but you
gotta gotta try to tamp that down. Most important beside
the trade with China, and that is ultra important to
(27:04):
the American economy, is the back and away from Putin.
And that's what I discussed with the Pollit Bureau in
May when I was invited over there by the Chinese government.
I said, what are you into putin business for? What
is that? Why do you want to enable this guy?
You can get your oil from Opek and Rumble sell
you oil to a probably a better price than Putin.
(27:27):
And why do you want to be in business with
this guy? He's killing women and children. And when you know,
the Chinese don't answer when you ask questions, they ponder,
they don't answer.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
And when you deal with them, are they do? You
just see the brilliance, the incredible strategic minds. That is
it really that formidable these people?
Speaker 2 (27:48):
There's one guy who was really brilliant, and I met
with him, uh one on one former ambassador to the
United States from China who served in Trump's first term,
and he boy, this guy eighty years old and he
knows what he's doing. The others were bureaucrats. I mean,
(28:12):
maybe that's unfair of me to say, because I didn't
spend a lot of I spent three hours with this crew,
but they were peppering me with questions and there was
a discussion back and forth. I didn't see, you know,
anything that stood out except for this ambassador, and he's
the she whisperer. He's the guy that she listens to.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Hey, Bill Riley, before we went out of time, CBS,
they got this Barry Weiss in there trying to straighten
it out, make it more fair balanced neutral. Is it
possible to do that? Does she have any chance of
succeeding at that you used to work there.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Yeah, that's a very very good question. I think she
can stabilize the operation and bring back some credibility to it,
but I don't think they're ever going to have good ratings.
I don't think there's anybody in America under the age
of fifty that watches the evening news. My kids don't
(29:09):
ever on any of them. They're obsolete because you can
get the information on social media and the internet way
before they come on at six thirty at night, and
the morning shows are just ridiculous. I mean it's you know,
but what ms wis is going to do is get
the fanatics out, the progressive fanatics which dominated all three
(29:30):
networks for at least ten years, and that's what she's
going to do. You're going to get them out and
get more moderate people in, more professional people who aren't
going to you know, skew the news. So if I
were Scott Pelly, I wouldn't buy buying a house, you
know what I mean? There are people there who are
marked Gail King. I'd be hard to move her out.
(29:55):
But she's certainly going to get a haircut on the
paycheck and to bring down all the salaries. They're going
to bring in some people that are not identified with
the far left, and I think that Weiss will be
able to restore some credibility there.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Hey yeah, we'll get one minute left the election Tuesday?
What do you think is going to happen?
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Mondney looks like Mandai is going to win. I mean,
you can you know that by the early voting. I
was surprised they gave out the tally so quickly. So
Mandmi is carrying Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens and Cuomo's carrying
the Bronx and Saten Island. It's not enough for Cuomoy.
(30:37):
So I expect that, you know, in one week, everybody
will go. But the early voting is very significant in
New York City this year, and I don't think that
trend is going to change. So I think Mandamie would
be the mayor.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
Well, we got through eight years at de Blasio and
it's basically the de Blasio team working for Mamdani, so
do the same thing all.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
Of Yeah, next week we'll talk about this because the
Blasio was a disaster and he set the stage for this, yeah, debacle,
it's about to happen. But I know, you got to
sell some stuff and now, so it's a little bit complicated,
but you know, we got this is the way life is.
So when New Yorkers, we're tough and you just got
(31:23):
to go along.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
All right.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
We'll get to that next week, but everybody get Bill

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Here comes the Mark Simone Show on seven ten wo R.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Well, the mayoral race. Will give you all the latest
all the latest polling information, all the latest info coming
up in just a second. We'll get to the World
Series last night. We'll get to Joe Biden. There's a
new report coming out about how really bad he was.
At the end, we'll get to the president's trip to Asia.
It's a pretty amazing trip. We'll get to a ballroom
(00:32):
derangement syndrome and more. Don't forget this is the last
week of daylight saving time, starting Sunday. It's going to
be dark out five point fifteen, five point thirty. It's
just terrible. It takes a lot of getting used to.
So where do we stand in the mayle race. Well,
it doesn't look good, Momdannie maintains a pretty comfortable lead.
(00:55):
And well, i'll give you the latest poll, the latest poll.
And again, these are not great polls. These are these
college polls which don't mean much of anything. But the
latest one, the latest college poll shows Andrew Cuomo ten
points behind. Now, there was a previous poll. Again, these
are all junk polls, but it showed him twenty points behind.
(01:18):
So you know you're in real trouble when you're cheering
that you rose up to only ten points behind. Ten
points behind is still ten points behind. Now, what's interesting
in this poll is if Sleewood dropped out, we don't
think Curtis needs to drop out second to solve Cuomo's problems.
(01:38):
His unlikeability, his terrible track record as governor turned off
a lot of people. That's why he's been just stumbling
through this campaign. You know, in the had he not
been in the primary, we might be in a different place.
Had he stayed out of this, Eric Adams would have
run in the Democratic primary, and who knows, he might
have had a much better shot at beating Mom down
(02:00):
in the primary. We know one thing that Cuomo absolutely
screwed up in the primaries. He got killed in both debates.
He lost by a lot in the primary, had nothing
to do with the wrong choice. He lost by a
lot in the popular vote, and because of him, we
got Mam Donni as the Democratic nominee. Maybe Eric Adams
could have stopped him had there been no Cuomo. But
(02:23):
and if Cuomo got out of the race, there is
one poll that came out on Friday. The only poll
that at that time was after the debates that showed
Curtis would do better against Mam Donni, then Cuomo would
by two points if it were a two man race.
But here's the latest in this poll. If Curtis were
to drop out now, Cuomo in the latest poll ten
(02:45):
points behind us Mam Donnie forty four percent, Cuomo thirty
four percent. So Mam Donni has a ten point lead
now in this polling in all the data, if you
go through it, if Curtis were to drop out, only
thirty six percent of his votes would go to Cuomo,
and they'd surveyed these people pretty carefully, so out of
the courtis y wild vote. If he dropped out, Cuomo
(03:06):
would only get thirty six percent of that vote, which
would give him another four percent. So what that means
is if if Curtis were out of the race in
this poll, it would be Mam Donni forty four percent,
Cuomo thirty eight percent. So still not good. The only
thing that could change all of this is massive turnout,
(03:29):
and it looks like we're getting that so far. Turnout
in the early voting, which is now three days. This
will be day four early voting is almost five hundred
percent above normal, above the last few elections. So if
there's massive turnout, that could change things, and that depends
who turns out. It could be you know, these crazy
(03:50):
twenty somethings who love Mom Donni. But pole watchers are
saying it looks like boomers gen xers are dominating. That's
people over fifty and they generally don't go for Mom Donnie.
So in fact, some poll watchers are saying that they
believe sixty six h sixty percent of the ballots people
(04:12):
over fifty, So that could be a help to Cuomo
or Curtis. So we're up to about three three hundred
and fifty thousand voters so far, So if that continues,
we're on track to get record, you know, close to
two million votes, which is extremely high turnout. That's how
(04:32):
Giuliani beat Dinkins, very very high turnout. Republicans have won
five of the last eight mayoral elections, but it requires
extremely high turnout to do it. Now, you could argue,
some will argue, well, you can't count Bloomberg because he
spent something like one hundred million of his own money
for a huge turnout operation. Yeah. Maybe, but Republicans can win.
(04:57):
So Mam Donnie caught in a huge lie. Now everybody's
waiting to see if this is a big factor. We
don't know how many people are watching this, paying attention
to this, how focused there on this incident. But Mamdanie
got caught in a huge lie. He told the story
about his aunt after nine to eleven. She had problems
riding the subway because she wore the Muslim garb and
(05:21):
she would get stairs. And who knows what else but
this poor aunt to his on the subway in New
York right after nine to eleven, How tough it was.
He told this tear jerking story. People checked his aunt
wasn't in New York after nine to eleven. She lived
ten thousand miles away in another continent. She wasn't here.
(05:42):
And then it turns out his aunt never wears a
he job, never wears any Muslim garb, just looks like
anybody else on the subway. So a major, major lie.
Now this is all proven detailed that he out and
out lied about this aunt. He had to confess yesterday.
So he confessed that all of this is true. It
(06:04):
wasn't his aunt. But then he made up a whole
other story, Well, it wasn't his aunt, it was a
very distant cousin of his father. Well who is it,
Well she's dead, So it sounds like a convenient excuse
that there's a very distant relative who's dead. And generally
you know who your aunt is and you don't confuse
(06:26):
them with any very distant relative of your father. So
it's clearly a total out and out lie, absolute lie.
And then this whole thing about the Muslim discrimination having
a problem in being in New York being Muslim, it's
kind of ridiculous. It's a huge Muslim population in New York.
It's eleven percent. The Jewish population is also eleven percent,
(06:49):
so they're pretty much equal. The Jewish population and the
Muslim population are equal. They're both eleven percent. And if
you check with the police, there's no reports of anti
Muslim attacks. But if you check with the police, there's
thousands and thousands of report of anti Jewish, anti Semitic attacks.
I don't have to tell you've heard about millions of them.
There's thousands of incidents of that, No incidents with the
(07:12):
New York City Police of any anti Muslim activity. So
the whole thing is a complete, fake, ridiculous issue that
he's been using. Now, Cuomo, he's been looking better. He
was good in the debate, the last debate, he thinks,
and that really just was horrible. In the two primary debates,
(07:32):
first general election debate, he was bad. People think he
got injected in one of those Joe Biden injections to
give him some energy, wake him up. He was pretty
good in the last debate. Again, it's all about turnout.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
In the primary. The turnout was totally different than they thought,
much younger, and the younger vote was a much higher percentage,
and that skewed.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
All the polls.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Yeah, Now, public polls are just junk. They're really flamensy
poles in private campaigns usually spend a fortune and get
the real serious polling companies to come in and do
of deadly accurate polls. Now Cuomo hasn't done that. Curtis
hasn't done that. We think Mamdani has and people are
noticing he's running a ton of TV ads, a ton
(08:19):
of social media ads, a lot of advertising, a lot
of commercials. They're pretty much not attacking Cuomo in them.
They're about affordability, but they're not Cuomo attack ads, that
would indicate that in his data he's not seeing a
big problem from Cuomo. If Cuomo were really getting close,
you'd see him run attack ads like crazy. So far,
he has not done that. He still keeps talking about
(08:40):
affordability too often.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
We think of affordability as a young person's problem of
whether you can build a life here. But there's so
many who are asking themselves whether they can keep a
life here.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Yeah. So and again, if affordability is the problem, if
this is a crisis housing affordability, if it's a disaster
here in New York, well that would be the Democrat's
fault because they've controlled every inch of New York government
for fifteen years, Democrat mayor, Democrat governor, Democrat City Council,
Democrat Legislature, both houses. So if affordability is such a crisis,
(09:12):
blame them. If it's that bad, the logical thing to
do would be a switch parties, try somebody else. So
Cuomo keeps he's been campaigning. You know, he took like
ten days off Vanish, but he's out there campaigning again.
I feel it. I feel it on the street.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
I continue to be confident in our campaign as well
as in our outreach to voters above the age of
fifty five. And also, I will not allow myself to
become complacent.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Yeah. Well, and you know Curtis. Curtis been campaigning nineteen
hours a day, just one appearance every hour, everywhere. He's
just been in all five boroughs, every neighborhood.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
Like it or not, I'm running to the end. That's
what democracy is about. Let people vote the billionaires. They're
not going to choose the mayor. The inside is, Oh,
the influences are not going to He's the mayor.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
And the people are Yeah, that's a good Oh, he's right.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
New York City is best known as a city that
locks up toothpaste and does not lock up criminals.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
And that's something.
Speaker 7 (10:10):
Y'all do when I get elected mayor on November four.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Yeah, it's ridiculous. Criminals are all let loose thanks to
our da Alvin Bragg, who you can get rid of
next Tuesday, on election day, vote for Maud Maren the Republican.
It's very important. Get out there and get rid of
Alvin Bragg. Vote for Maud Maren the Republicans, big, big,
big crime fighter, long history, and get rid of Alvin Bragg.
(10:33):
On Tuesday. But this whole thing of letting the criminals
run loose, you can shoplift. It's all. You can thank
Cuomo for that, with his no bail, no jail. Also
with his closing the prisons. Rememory bragged about how he
closed all the prisons and let everybody out. So here's
more of Mom Donnie.
Speaker 6 (10:51):
Together, New York. We're going to freeze the.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Did you get in New York?
Speaker 6 (10:56):
We're gonna make buses fast.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And freeze the rent. He has no authority to freeze
the rent anywhere, make busses free. He has absolutely no
control over the buses. It's run by the MTA, which
is controlled by the governor.
Speaker 6 (11:12):
Let our words ring out so loud tonight that Andrew
Cuomo can hear them in his eight thousand dollars a
month apartment. Let them ring so loud that his puppet
master in the White House hears us. New York is
not for saved.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Apparently it is because Mom Donnie took tens of millions
of dollars from all these sorrows types. Nobody had more
funding from billionaires than all sorts of special interests than
Mom Donnie. Did you knowice he took the shot at
Cuomo in Westchester. So the problem with Cloma's got a
lot of problems running. He's got terrible track record as governor,
got more baggage than Paris Hilton. And people remember all
(11:55):
these horrible things as governor, from closing Indian Point to
killing all the seniors and the nursing homes, to creating
the crime wave, the no bail, no jail, to all
all this stuff. I won't even read you the whole
list of the long list, not to mention he picked
Kathy Hockle. He's the one that stuck us with Kathy Hockle.
He chose her for us. So it's a terrible track
(12:17):
record as governor. And he's also, as Mom Donnie was
pointing out there, up in Westchester. He's the first mayoral
candidate who doesn't live in New York City, not a
New York City guy. His whole adult life, he's lived
in Westchester. He's been in the suburbs his whole adult life.
We've never seen that before. We had mayors that have
been born somewhere else, but they've always spent their entire
(12:38):
adult life living in New York City. Hey, even Mike Johnson,
speaker of the House weighing in on the raid.
Speaker 8 (12:45):
We can't allow a rise of Marxist and far left
activist in one party to shut down the entire operation
of the federal government. And that is exactly what they
are allowing them to do. The Democrats have got to
come their senses. You can endorse communist all you want,
at least keep the government operating.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Yeah, so again Cuomo, had he not been in the race,
everything might have been different. Eric Adams is a pretty
good campaigner. He might have had a better shot in
the primary and knocked out Mom, Donnie and then Cuomo.
It's all about the campaign. He hasn't been out there.
He hasn't He still hasn't opened a campaign office. It
(13:22):
doesn't that much of a staff. He's not a lot
of appearances, not doing much. And he's got this whole
thing about get everybody else out of the race, which
is when you got to do that, you know you're
in trouble. Remember Donald Trump in the primaries, he had
we have fifteen guys running against him. He didn't force
anybody out. The last time we saw that happen was
(13:43):
when Joe Biden was running and he couldn't win. So
to get him the nomination. The Democrats forced everybody out
of the race. Remember the day before South Carolina Elizabeth
Warren Withdrew, Buddha Jedge Withdrew Sanders Withdrew. They ordered everybody
out of the race. That's the only way Biden could win.
Trying that. Now they're ordering Curtis out of the race,
(14:03):
which is ridiculous. You know, Cuomo did that when he
ran for governor. When he was running for governor, David Patterson,
very popular, was going to be a candidate against him,
and he couldn't beat Patterson, so they had the Obama
administration get Patterson out of the race, which they did.
I've talked to Patterson. He's confirmed that although yesterday Patterson
endorsed Cuomo, that.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
Is clearly advantageous to the former governor. That the senior vote,
which had been dwindling, is coming back almost with love
rhythmatic proportions.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
What was that word love? Madic Well, I see that's
one smart guy. I don't know what the hell that means,
but I guess it has to do with a labyrinth. No,
I don't know algorithm. I don't know what it means.
But Patterson's a great and I've had Patterson had run,
I think we'd all vote for him. He would have
been a much better candidate than Cuomo. So again, we
(15:00):
don't know about these polls. They're not the greatest polls.
Anything could change. Also, don't go by the betting markets,
the poly markets. People look at this betting market. These
are just amateur's betting and it's usually based on the poles.
And one of the reasons those betting markets don't work
very well. And you'll know whatever it says, it doesn't matter.
Let's say something else in two days. They just move
(15:20):
up and down and up and down. They don't really
predict anything. Whoever bets the most money moves the market
the most. And like the poly market, there's four big
players who bet so much money that it's whatever these
four guys think that moves it more than anything. Anyway,
we got a lot to get to you, Bill, O'Reilly.
We'll see what he thinks. We'll talk to him in
a couple of minutes. We'll take some calls. Next eight
(15:41):
hundred three to two one zero seven ten is the
number eight hundred three two one zero seven ten in
Mark on demand. By setting a preset for his podcast,
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Now back to Mark Simon on wor.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Well, that's takes the calls. You know, we get the
people pop from all over the country. But let me
see if I can find some New York City callers. First,
let's go to Phil and Queens. Phil. How you doing hey?
Speaker 10 (16:12):
Mark?
Speaker 11 (16:13):
I think Curtis is gonna win, and quite frankly, Cuomo
helped destroy the city. Mondamine will build on that and
make it worse. And I drive around the city quite
a bit. I see Curtis signs where I didn't expect to,
and I'm gonna give me another moment. There's a reverse
(16:33):
barometer of how this selection is going. Even though a
lot of people don't view New York One, they are
so in the bag for the Democrats.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yeah no, no, nobody sees Nobody sees New York One.
But a better rehearse barometer always follow the big money
donors because they always get it wrong every time. They
have an incredible track record of always getting it wrong.
So the big big money donors are behind Cuomo. So
just bear that mind. Let's see you in New York City.
Here's Bill and Brooklyn. Bill, how you doing him?
Speaker 10 (17:02):
Mark? I'm supporting President Trump in the mayoral election. He
doesn't want us to vote for Curtis. We're gonna have
to throw Curtis under the bus and go with the Democrat.
He's rather a.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Democratic than the Democrat.
Speaker 10 (17:13):
Is Mam donni no a Democrats Democrats democrat, not the
communist Democrat.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
I don't know if you can make that case. First
of all, Cuomo is not at all a Democrat. He's
running on a third party ticket. He's not the Democratic nominee.
Democrats rejected him in the primary. And when he was
governor he was as far left as mam donnie with
his no bail, no jail, closed the prisons.
Speaker 10 (17:35):
But he believes in capitalism. Mark, that's important.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Yeah, No, you're right about that. The argument is that
Mam Donnie would be worse, but Cuomo would be just
as bad. Cuomo, if you check his record as governor,
was so far to the left, crazy, woke crazy. Uh.
But again, he's not the Democratic nomine If you're voting,
don't say vote for the Democrat because that would be
mam donnie in the race. Mam Donnie's Democratic candidate curts
(18:01):
the Republican candidate. Cuomo running on a third party, which
nobody could probably name. Let's go six and one. Let's
go to Ron in Texas. Ron, how you doing? Wait
a minute, there you go, Ron, how you doing?
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Oh?
Speaker 12 (18:15):
Pretty good. There's something that's missing about Cuomo. He's got
a bucalo problems, and one of them is people missing
the pole board that he's put into place.
Speaker 5 (18:28):
Half is still there.
Speaker 10 (18:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
No, that's another good point. Cuomo was as far left
as mom Donnie when he was governor. He replaced the
whole parole board with these far left woke kooks. They've
let out everybody, including they think about this. His parole
board let out forty three cop killers and that's just
an example of how he governs. Let's go to Jerry
in Greenwich. Jerry, how you doing?
Speaker 12 (18:51):
I'm doing well, Mark, thank you for taking my call.
I met Camillo yesterday, Insider down.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Fred Camillo is the mayor of Grantweed. She's the best mayor.
They call it the first selectman. But everybody make sure
to win. Vote for Fred Camillo on Tuesday. Make sure
you vote for him.
Speaker 12 (19:07):
I'm definitely working for him. I mean, you know, I
asked him to give me two signs for his support,
and I put him on my property on North Street,
which is really really nice. And I support my friend
Heather for a tax collector. So I'm a great supporter
of Camillo and Heather.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Yeah, everybody Greenwich vote for Fred Camillo, best mayor they had.
Speaker 12 (19:29):
He's a great man and a great guy.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
All right, thanks for calling. Let's go to sal in
Long Island.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Sal.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
How you doing good?
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Good morning Mark, Mark. I don't want to change the
subject too much from the campaign, but I wanted your
opinion on how do you feel about bringing back the draft?
So these eighteen year olds would learn respect, learn a career,
possibly learn that they just they can't eat with Mommy
makes them all the time, and they will learn to
be adults and turn out to be men after two
(19:59):
years of being in the well.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
It sounds good on paper. It sounds good on paper,
but it can't happen because nobody's going to campaign about
bringing back the draft. You'd you'd get killed in an
election if that was your platform. And Democrats aren't going
to bring back the draft. They don't like the military.
Republicans would worry it would kill any chance of getting elected.
But it's a good idea.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
I think I'm sorry. I think President Trump would be
all for it though, and that would bring back respect
and patriotism. Also, that's what we had at one time,
and that was one of the reasons we had it.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Yeah, but again, bring back the draft. You probably can't
get elected. But President Trump's been very good on military recruiting.
Recruiting just stopped under Joe Biden because they went so
woke and you know, trans or whatever they went to,
it pretty much dried up. That's one reason you wanted
Pete Hexath. Hexath is very good at that. The one
thing he's done, he's dramatically increased recruiting by thousands of percent.
(20:56):
I mean he's just recruiting is now through the roof,
back where we wanted it. Let's go to Andy in
New Jersey. Andy, how you doing, Hey?
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Mark The word that Governor Patterson was trying to spit
out with logarithmic, but even if you could pronounce it,
it didn't make any sense because logarithmic increases slower than linear.
What he wanted to say is an exponential increase, which
is much much faster than linear.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Well, he's a very smart guy, Patterson, but you got
to watch those words. Well, I don't need to give
him any advice. He knows that a speaking public. But
you got to watch that, that gibberish kind of what
So it's logarithmic versus exponential exponentially.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
Yeah, yeah, logarithmic is slow. Exponential is very fast.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Oh, logarithmic is slow, exponential is fast. All right, let
me just write that down because I'm never going to
use that anywhere. Who's going to know what the hell
I'm talking about. Hey, well, Bill O'Reilly will be with
us next. Lots to talk to him about the mayoral race,
the World Series. Last night, eighteen innings. The game went
till two fifteen in the morning. Anyway, A lot to
(21:58):
get to next on seventy's.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
The Marks among Show on seven ten WR.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Well Bill O'Reilly, of course, the number one TV anchor

It is an amazing book. You gotta get it, and
(22:28):
you get his column. Everything's at Bill O'Reilly dot com. Bill, O'Reilly,
How you doing.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Busy this morning? Just like you Mark? Right?
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah? Well, hey President in China, you made the trip first,
you were in China meeting with all these leaders there.
What is he What is he in for there?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I think? Well, I got a text from him at
one in the morning's time and he says that everything's
going very well. And uh, I'm the scenes that Chinese
are cooperating. So I was happy to hear that. I'm
making a point tonight on my broadcast and No Spin
(23:08):
News that there are people in America I'm starting to
really teem me off. They want them to fail over there.
You know, they hate him so much. And I know
some of these people, and now I have a moral
quandary because I don't really respect that. If you are
(23:29):
going to put your hatred for an individual, whether it's
Donald Trump or Notack Obama, anybody above the welfare of
your own country and your own family by extension, then
I don't respect you, and so then I have to
reevaluate how I'm going to deal with that person. Now,
I don't think that's common in say a large amount
(23:55):
of people believe that, but certainly a significant amount of
people do, and you see it reflected in MS and CNN.
In fact, we're reporting a story tonight. I believe it's true,
although it's anonymously sore. So I always tell the audience
that got to bring him bit of skepticism when you
(24:16):
read about anonymous sore stories that the head of CNN,
Mark Thompson, actually ordered his anchors to knock it off
about the White House renovations and start covering the most
important story of the year, Trump's Asia trip. He had
to order his own people to do that. That's a
(24:39):
pretty sad state of affairs.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
I think, Yeah, this ballroom derangement syndrome, it's just ridiculous.
And you're right, big things are happening in this trip, big,
big trade deals with mineral deals. It should be covered NonStop.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
It's enormous and so far he's two for two Asia
and Japan. And the reason that he's succeeding is because
people fear him. So these countries in a like, Okay,
I want to give America a break. That's not really
the mentality. Mentality is I gotta get a deal with
(25:18):
this man, because if we don't, then our economy is
going to be hurt, particularly in Japan. They know they
have to calm it down. When I was in Japan
in May, I did not see one American vehicle. And
I traveled around a bit, there wasn't one American vehicle
on their streets that There were German cars and Korean cars,
(25:44):
but no American vehicles. What was that Because the Japanese
historically have kept out American cars from their marketplace, which
Trump's changing all of that. And so I was happy
to see the initial couple of days go well, But
the big day is Thursday.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
The meeting was she Yeah, well, uh, there's no reason
to think he won't do very well with she for
all the reasons you just said. And a lot of
people think there also might be a wink in a
nod about Taiwan or something like that.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
There's gotta be some accommodation made to the Chinese about Taiwan.
You're absolutely right. The American government cannot take a hard line.
There's a way to do this. But it's so emotional now,
particularly what happened in Hong Kong. You know, in the
beginning of Hong Kong is going to be autonomous, and
(26:44):
it's going to be part of China, but they're gonna
let the capitalistic system flow there. And then of course
the Chinese said, I don't think something. We will violate
every treaty, and that could happen in Taiwan, but you
gotta gotta try to tamp that down. Most important beside
the trade with China, and that is ultra important to
(27:04):
the American economy, is the back and away from Putin.
And that's what I discussed with the Pollit Bureau in
May when I was invited over there by the Chinese government.
I said, what are you into putin business for? What
is that? Why do you want to enable this guy?
You can get your oil from Opek and Rumble sell
you oil to a probably a better price than Putin.
(27:27):
And why do you want to be in business with
this guy? He's killing women and children. And when you know,
the Chinese don't answer when you ask questions, they ponder,
they don't answer.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
And when you deal with them, are they do? You
just see the brilliance, the incredible strategic minds. That is
it really that formidable these people?
Speaker 2 (27:48):
There's one guy who was really brilliant, and I met
with him, uh one on one former ambassador to the
United States from China who served in Trump's first term,
and he boy, this guy eighty years old and he
knows what he's doing. The others were bureaucrats. I mean,
(28:12):
maybe that's unfair of me to say, because I didn't
spend a lot of I spent three hours with this crew,
but they were peppering me with questions and there was
a discussion back and forth. I didn't see, you know,
anything that stood out except for this ambassador, and he's
the she whisperer. He's the guy that she listens to.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Hey, Bill Riley, before we went out of time, CBS,
they got this Barry Weiss in there trying to straighten
it out, make it more fair balanced neutral. Is it
possible to do that? Does she have any chance of
succeeding at that you used to work there.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Yeah, that's a very very good question. I think she
can stabilize the operation and bring back some credibility to it,
but I don't think they're ever going to have good ratings.
I don't think there's anybody in America under the age
of fifty that watches the evening news. My kids don't
(29:09):
ever on any of them. They're obsolete because you can
get the information on social media and the internet way
before they come on at six thirty at night, and
the morning shows are just ridiculous. I mean it's you know,
but what ms wis is going to do is get
the fanatics out, the progressive fanatics which dominated all three
(29:30):
networks for at least ten years, and that's what she's
going to do. You're going to get them out and
get more moderate people in, more professional people who aren't
going to you know, skew the news. So if I
were Scott Pelly, I wouldn't buy buying a house, you
know what I mean? There are people there who are
marked Gail King. I'd be hard to move her out.
(29:55):
But she's certainly going to get a haircut on the
paycheck and to bring down all the salaries. They're going
to bring in some people that are not identified with
the far left, and I think that Weiss will be
able to restore some credibility there.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Hey yeah, we'll get one minute left the election Tuesday?
What do you think is going to happen?
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Mondney looks like Mandai is going to win. I mean,
you can you know that by the early voting. I
was surprised they gave out the tally so quickly. So
Mandmi is carrying Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens and Cuomo's carrying
the Bronx and Saten Island. It's not enough for Cuomoy.
(30:37):
So I expect that, you know, in one week, everybody
will go. But the early voting is very significant in
New York City this year, and I don't think that
trend is going to change. So I think Mandamie would
be the mayor.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
Well, we got through eight years at de Blasio and
it's basically the de Blasio team working for Mamdani, so
do the same thing all.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
Of Yeah, next week we'll talk about this because the
Blasio was a disaster and he set the stage for this, yeah, debacle,
it's about to happen. But I know, you got to
sell some stuff and now, so it's a little bit complicated,
but you know, we got this is the way life is.
So when New Yorkers, we're tough and you just got
(31:23):
to go along.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
All right.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
We'll get to that next week, but everybody get Bill
O'Reilly's latest book. You'll love this book, powerful book called
Confronting Evil. It's already a big bestseller. Watch the YouTube
channel Bill O'Reilly's YouTube channel. Great stuff there, and of
