wo Hey, let's take some calls. Eight hundred three to
two one zero seven ten is the number. Let's go
to Dennis in Huntington. Dennis, how you doing.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
I'm Mark Kelly. You good show, Thanks for having me.
So I'm going to put something out there in your opinion.
This great article today in the will Street Channel about
the subsidies for Obamacare, and they will given examples of
people who you're paying nothing and they're making a lot
of money too. This want businesses. You know, a lot
of people pay monthly premiums for health insurance. And I'm
(00:45):
looking at these numbers on my cloud. These numbers are
pretty well for people making.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Yeah, but I know Obamacare, a lot of people are
paying very high amounts, ridiculous amounts. They called it the
Affordable Care Act, but it turned out not to be
so affordable. One of the things that Republicans want to
do is clean up the roles of who's on it.
You got a lot of dead people on it. Apparently
when somebody dies, somebody else can take their zip code
and continue the theyre social Security number and continue the
(01:13):
coverage that stuff like that. You got a lot of
illegals on there. I know Democrats will say, no illegals,
they're not allowed on it. Well, there's many ways around that,
and that's one of the things Republicans want to want
to clean up. Let's go to Lauren in New Jersey. Lauren,
how you doing?
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Yeah? Hey, Mark, Hey, you know. Yeah, no amount of
healthcare is going to help a deceased individual. But yeah,
in case anyone needs any more evidence about Trump derangements
syndrome being a real thing. Yeah, well, okay, so Trump
has been able to orchestrate a peace deal with the
Middle East, and yet the Democrats, the progressive Democrats, are
(01:52):
unwilling to negotiate to for this country and do the
right thing for this kindtry.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, well, all got do is signed that seven week extension.
Then go back to work. Where are you in New Jersey?
Where do you live in New Jersey?
Speaker 3 (02:06):
I'm out past Morris County.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
No, a little vege there. You don't want to say
exactly where. Wait, I'm out past this county. Are you
are you on the lamb or something?
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Okay, Well you don't have to answer to answer.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
In a beautiful air in a beautiful area of New
Jersey watching the leaves change.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
I got it. You're somewhere you're not supposed to be
right now. All right, that's okay, good luck to you.
Let's go to a veto in Staten Island. Veto. How
you doing?
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Yeah, hi, Markus, I want to comment about Cuomo.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
We don't lose.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
He gets to keep all the funds that were contributed
to him by the high end.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Yeah, you get to keep the millions. That's every candidate though,
you know, that's that's everybody.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
That's why, Yeah, I feel that's why he's not spending
his money on campaign.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Well, he is spending money. He's running a lot of commercials. Now.
The reason he doesn't campaign. The problem with Cuomo. He's
the world's worst debater. He stinks in debates. He's not
much of a speaker. He still hasn't opened a campaign
office anywhere. Have you ever heard of such a thing?
(03:20):
The last final weeks the election, still hasn't opened a
campaign office. He doesn't really have much of a schedule.
You know, if you look at Curtis's schedule, you'd faint
just looking at the schedule. He does like four hundred
appearances today. A day. He goes to every borough. He's
run around doing radio shows, TV shows. Cuomo does nothing.
He picks and chooses. Now, in Cuomo's defense, he's extremely unpopular.
(03:44):
He's got so much baggage and scandal in his past
that he can't go do any interview he wants because
he can't he can't face questions. He does want to
be grilled about all the awful things he did as governor,
the nursing homes, the no bail, no jail, the closing
our nuclear plant, all the stuff he screwed up. He
doesn't want to be asked about that. And I guess
(04:05):
the reason he doesn't do any rallies or anything like that.
He's worried about protesters because he killed ten thousand people
in our nursing homes and they all have kids and
families and relatives that are trying to protest him. But
he deliberately doesn't do rallies so they can't show up
to protest. And that's probably the reason he doesn't have
a campaign headquarters, because he knows the protesters will be
(04:26):
out in front of it all day and night. Hey,
when we come back, the great Jimmy Fayla, very funny
Jimmy Fayla. He's on every night now in WR nine o'clock,
also of course on Fox News. But he'll be with
us next on seven to ten WR
