Speaker 1 (00:00):
Our two Sean Hannity Show, eight hundred and nine four one,
Shawn our number. You want to be a part of
the program. So you got the New York Times, you
got Democrats scared to death. Even Don lemon Over at
Fake News CNN is asking the White House Press Secretary
whether or not Joe should be running, whether or not
he's alert enough, and whether or not basically he's cognitively

(00:22):
there enough. Not exactly those words, but if he is
going to run in twenty twenty four, Democrats clearly are
scared to death. Remember over the weekend, AOC not committing
to supporting Biden in twenty twenty four. So I just
want to ask about President Biden. He is saying he's
going to run again in twenty twenty four. Will you

(00:42):
support him? You know, if the President chooses to run
again in twenty twenty four. I mean, first of all,
I'm focused on winning this majority right now and preserving
a majority this year in twenty twenty two. So we'll
cross that bridge when we get to it. But I
think if the president has a vision, and that's something
certainly we're all willing to entertain an examine when the

(01:03):
when the time comes, that's yeah. You know, I think
we should endorse when we get to it. But I
believe that the president has been doing a very good
job so far, and you know, should he run again,
I think that, I you know, I think it's it's
we'll take a look at it. Right now, we need
to focus on winning a majority instead of a presidential election.

(01:24):
Clearly AOC is getting the swamp infection, because that's not
the same AOC that went to Washington on day one
sounding more establishment Democrat than anything else. But it's interesting,
I mean, still no Democrat in the right minds thinks
that Joe Biden's doing a good job, or is strong

(01:44):
and a strong leader, or that any of his policies
are working. Look at, for example, the Axio ceo saying, yeah,
Democrats are super duper worried about Biden's approval rating. Here's
what the ceo of Axio because rating is only going
further down as the midterms approach. What's the latest reporting

(02:05):
you guys have. But how worried Democrats are that the
Biden may be a drag on the party come November.
I mean they're super duper worried. Right, you don't want
the president of your party sitting at forty percent or
slightly below forty percent. You look at the numbers with
independence use swing voters, often around thirty percent, sometimes lower.
That's terrible, like there's no other way to cut it in.

(02:27):
Democrats know that, and democrats know that, all right, how
much do they know anyway? John McLaughlin is with US
co founder McLaughlin and Associates for the polling company Matt Towery,
poster insider Advantage and syndicated calumnist. Welcome both of you.
What's fascinating is and there are some outlier polls that

(02:49):
have Biden at much higher approval rating than the most
other polls. But even with the outliers included real clear politics.
Matt Towery and I know occasionally you write for them.
They have the average of Joe Biden now at what
thirty eight as of I think yesterday, the day before,
and you have Joe at thirty two and thirty three

(03:10):
and other polls that I think are more realistic. Yeah,
it's it has been a long sustained plummet for a
Biden and you know it probably for him could not
come at a worse time, as alluded to earlier than
midterms are right around the corner. On top of that,
you have this January six which is supposed to be

(03:31):
another pivot for the Democrats. These hearings that have been held,
and so far I think I've calculated since they started
their hearing, the DAO has plunged what thousands of points
And so when you look to the to the legacy media,
you'll look on their websites and it will be January sixth,
and then down below it will be O DAL drops unemployment,

(03:54):
I mean, rather inflation increases. There's a disconnect between the
public and the media, and the public is catching up
to it. You know, for years we talked about fact
now the media was leading the public around by the note.
Now the public is leading the media and they've caught
up to it. And that's where the poem is reflecting.
You can't deflect the stuff with a January sixth hearing.

(04:14):
You can't deflect it with a speech like he had
today with the at LCIO where he yelled the whole
time it's not working and the numbers just be dropping
and the numbers don't bear it out either. Let's get
your overall take, John McLaughlin. Well, I'll tell you the
overall take is the two thirds of the voters still
think the country's on the vall truck. They say that
the economy is getting worse, not better, sixty seven to

(04:37):
twenty five, and Joe Biden is doubling down on failure.
So the reality is when people by the way his
job approval has crashed, the way the prices of gas
have risen, So when people go to buy gas and food,
they're thinking this is Joe Biden's full and kiss like
they're exactly right. And they're thinking also that Donald Trump up,

(05:01):
you know, it was a really good president. May not
have liked the style, but I think his results were
really good. So you've got this January sixth, because it's
pretty early to worry about twenty twenty four. But they're
afraid that Donald Trump is going to get reelected because
they're seeing that he's ahead in the polls fifty to
forty three and our last national survey over Joe Biden
and ten points over Camela House, and the generic bouts

(05:24):
for the Republicans are all, you know, they're five to
ten points. The Republicans are head, so they're afraid of
losing the House and the Senate and you know, the
American public, as as a man is talking about, and
our friend Knew English looks about a new American majority
where the Republicans are now being joined by independence in Democrats,

(05:45):
in an American majority that wants to straighten out the
direction of the country because their policies are not working
and they want America works. Yea, let's talk about the
Trump factor. I mean, obviously he's played a big role
in the primaries and he's had a big impact. Matt Towery,
I'm not sure what his plans are about running in
twenty twenty four. If he decides to run. I think

(06:08):
he's the odds on favorite by a pretty big margin
to win the primary, if people even primary him. But
you keep hearing other names that are out there. I
think Republicans, if you look at their bench, you got
the Santas, obviously, you got you know, people like Mike
Pompeo looking to get into this. I don't think Larry
Hogan is going anywhere. I'm not sure Nikki Haley's going

(06:28):
to go anywhere or light things on fire. Senator Ted
Cruz had a great run when he ran against President
Trump in the primary in twenty fifteen and sixteen. So
you have other Senators like Cotton and Holly. I know
Cotton in particular is thinking about running. So we have
a pretty deep bench. Who do they have. Bernie Sanders
says he won't run. Elizabeth Warren can't win in my view,

(06:52):
but they got Amy Klobuchar, Pete Buddha, Judge Kamala Harris.
I don't see any of them as strong candidates. No,
they don't have much of a bench. The only name
that floats around that would get my attention is Michelle Obama,
and I keep an eye out for that because oftentimes
what you don't expect happens in politics. Well, I read
a piece today about Oprah. Maybe Democrats should convince Opra run. Yeah,

(07:16):
you know, I just don't see that happening. But I'm
keeping an eye on Michelle Obama just in case, because
that is a very political family and understand politics. But
as to the Republicans, the smart Republican in my mind
has been Ron de Santus. And the reason I say
that is is that the Santus has been able to
stay on the sidelines. He did not get involved in
endorsing candidates, which is a mistake. Some of these rookies

(07:38):
who are running for president. Soto Voce did, and if
he can stay out of the way and let Trump
make his own decision, then he might need the beneficiary
of that. He certainly has had a magnificent run as governor.
I think he'll be re elected reelected over Charlie Krift
a reasonably large margin. So I put him as the
number one contender. But as you said earlier, it's trump

(08:01):
ward to run. I would certainly say that Trump would
clear the field. I don't think any of these names
can defeat it in primary. And I think he is
the nominee of the Republican Party if he wants it.
And that's something, but we know that for example, there's
like we've watched Trump endorsed candidates and today, for example,
out in Nevada, we're watching Adam Laxalt. Trump endorsed candidates

(08:22):
are getting hit from the left end by the rhino right.
Club for Growth keeps throwing money at any and every
candidate that's not Trump endorsed, I think, in a concerted effort,
and they throw a millions of dollars around. The Club
for Growth is no longer the Club for Growth that
we once knew there are a Rhino organization that is

(08:44):
now actively involved in every never Trumper activity you can
ever imagine. So they tried it in Pennsylvania, that they're
trying it now in Nevada, and I don't think it's
going to work in Nevada. They tried it in Ohio
as well. We saw that happen there and unfold there
and then you got the left you got, you know,
according to one source, I heard somebody say, Yesterday's Sorrows

(09:05):
put a whole bunch of money in the race out
in Nevada. Well on one of his packs or one
of his groups that he supports. One has to ask
the question, what growth are they the club for? I mean,
at one time we knew what that stood for. I
think that organization has become primarily, as you said, an
anti Trump organization, and I can't imagine they're going to
keep continuing to get millions of dollars, at least from

(09:26):
the people who used to get it money, because other
people who I knew in my days in the Republican
Party and it is a very solid conservative group. But
I don't view it as that right now, and I
don't think most people do. Oh. I don't think so either.
What's your answer to this question, John mcglaulin. But you
know whether there was united in North Carolina or they
helped Ted Budd, they won the primary decisively and Ted

(09:46):
Bugs probably going to win the North Carolina Senate seat.
And to the original question with Joe Biden, So last
time we asked the national Democrat primary question with Joe
Biden other Democrats in it. Biden only had thirty percent
of the Democrat primary vote. That's Lindon Johnson type of numbers.
The Canela has had seven, Basella Bound had seventeen, Stapy

(10:09):
Abraham's four and AOC four. I mean they have a
wide open primary. Boota judge is really lighting things on
fire as Transportation Secretary lecturing us that will have high
gas prices until we get renewable energy independence, whatever that
means when what they get wind and solar up and

(10:29):
running five thousand years from now, and then lecturing everybody
to go out and buy a sixty thousand dollars tesla,
which if you want to buy one, go right ahead,
But most Americans at this point can't afford it, especially
with inflation and the average gas price over what's today
five twelve cents a gallon. Yeah, and boota judge, I
mean we do. Pulled for the Job Creator's Network with

(10:51):
five hundred small business owners last month, they said that
basically that we're not doing enough. Basically, seventy one percent
say we're not doing enough to help supply chain problems,
and seventy three percent said bidens not doing enough to
combat inflation. At seventy four percent give the economy and
negative rating. So Biden and boota judge there, I mean
boot Bootage couldn't even run South Bend as a mayor.

(11:14):
So the Democrats have no bench, their policies are failing,
and Donald Trump if he runs again, the Republican primary
voters said they support of eighty three to fourteen and
in the field of thirteen candidates, we had Trump at
fifty seven percent nationally to Sanus at fifteen percent, and
then you had Mike Pence and others Entingle digits quick break.

(11:35):
We'll come back our posters, John McLaughlin, Matt Towery on
the other side. Then your calls coming up eight hundred
and nine four one sean, if you want to be
a part of the program, all right, we continue looking

(11:58):
at the varying poles around the country heading into the
mid terms. We have Matt Towery, John mclack on our
posters with us, let's take this down an imaginary road,
and John, I'll start with you that. Okay, So we're
gonna now go through if you well, let's take Laurence
Summer saying probably in the next year or two we
have a recession. I don't see Democrats making a U

(12:19):
turn and returning to energy independence. They have doubled down
on begging countries that hate US OPEC nations, the Saudis, Venezuelans, Venezuela, Iran,
you know, to produce more energy rather than be energy
independent like we were. All right, So, assuming gas prices
stay high, inflation stays high, and interest rates now are

(12:41):
going to go through the roof, the ripple effect of that,
coupled with high inflation forty one year high, paying more
for every item we buy and every store we go
to paying five dollars plus headed to six dollars a
gallon gasoline as a national average. And so tell me
how this plays out, because with the people maybe in
the middle beyond Donald Trump's base, are they not watching this?

(13:05):
Are they willing to take a few tweets that maybe
make them uncomfortable and lower gas prices and a better
economy and a stronger position for America in the world,
because I think the answer would be yes. So you're
exactly right, because when you look at I mean, what's
interesting is rumblings from our old ally Israel that they're
going to have their coalition that's sailed over there is

(13:26):
about to collapse and they'll go into another election. Probably
Man Yahoo will win and be Prime minister again. We
only wish we had that system because Donald Trump would
be president again. We'd have no confidence vote by now.
And then they got this stupid cigar trial, which you
can't even make up. It's so dumb. Matt will give
you the last word. We got a minute. Okay, two
quick things. First of all, yes, everything you describe, there's

(13:50):
no way that they get out of that nose dive
in the next two years. But let me tell you
what I'm beginning to hear among Republicans, among the base,
and this is going to start to I think to
pick up. There are a lot of people now to
see this and say they being meeting the Democrats of
the Biden administration are determined to wreck the country. That
this is on purpose. And I'm not saying that's the case,
but I'm saying that more and more Republican No, Joe's

(14:13):
doing exactly what he said he would do. That's why
I keep playing these tapes of him saying, oh, he'll
eliminate fossil fuels. Is that this was their plan, and
they executed their plan and with that plan, and on
the first week he was worn in. I sat on
your show. For every action, there's a reaction because he
signed all those executive orders. You're about to see the
reaction of the century because people will not put up

(14:35):
with him about Americans suffering a shortage of baby formula,
of feminine products, supply chain shortages. I mean, I am
so worried about There's not going to be a soft
landing here, and this is going to be a protracted,
self inflicted economic crisis because of radical climate alarmism and

(14:58):
the religious cult that it is that the Democratic Party
adheres to. That's the answer you want. You want to
lower inflation, become energy independent, want to lower gas prices,
become energy independent, increase the world's apply. This is not complicated,
but they're making it bad for everybody needlessly anyway, Matt Towery,
John McLaughlin, thank you. When we come back, we'll get

(15:19):
to the phones. Eight hundred and nine one Sean, if
you want to be a part of the program, quick break,
right back, more Hannity, last, Big Government. This is the

(15:48):
Sean Hannity Show, all right, twenty five now to the
top of the hour. Even at fake news CNN, uh,
Don Lemony doesn't hide the fact. I don't think he
calls himself a journal does he. If he does, it's
pretty funny. He's a left wing talk show host. That's
what he does for a living, which is fine as
long as you're honest about it. Anyway, So he had

(16:09):
on the new Press Secretary, replacing Jen circleback Saki the
chief propagandist anyway, Karen Jean Pierre is on Don Lemon show,
and even Don Lemon talks about the fact that Joe's
I'm putting it in my words week in frail and
a cognitive mess. And listen to the answer. Does the

(16:31):
president have the stamina physically and mentally? Do you think
to continue on even after twenty twenty four? You're asking
me this question. Oh my gosh, he's the president of
the United States, you know he I can't even keep
up with it. We just got back from New Mexico.
We just got back from California. That is, that is

(16:52):
not a question that we should be even asking. He's
the president. We shouldn't be talking about it. I'm not
I can't even keep up with them. Really, I don't
believe that at all. I'm sure he naps the whole
way on the plane. And he's delivering delivering what higher

(17:12):
gas prices, record high inflation, a weakened America in terms
of its role in the world. He's delivering on nothing.
It's an unmitigated disaster, all of it preventable. That's the
sad part. Anyway, eight hundred and nine for one, Sean
is our number. You want to be a part of
the program, Dan in Illinois will start. I don't know

(17:34):
why you're living in Illinois, Dan, but you're there. Glad
you called sir. Good afternoon, mister Hannesby. I finally get
a chance to repay you a debt of gratitude, believe
it or not, really in what sense. Well, about four
or five years ago, I was listening to your program
and you were talking with someone about going back to
school and furthering their education. The result of that conversation

(17:56):
inspired me to do this over the road. But I
finished getting my four year degree, and now here i
am two years later, I'm halfway getting through my master's
and I'm still driving a truck over the road. But
I'm dedicated now. So you're a full time be here.
You're a full time truck driver. You got your four

(18:17):
year degree, you're halfway to getting your master's degree. Could
I ask him what field? Business administration? And I'm hoping
to get into human resources, and so you want to
make a career change, and the whole time you've been
working full time doing this, Yes, sir. Wow, Wow. I
had a part to play in this, Yes, sir, because

(18:40):
it was a result of your conversation with someone else
that inspired me to get this finished. To begin with,
my wife has been diagnosed with MS for a long
time and I had to make a decision between Quinney
school or taking care of the family, and the family
went out a long time later. I decided through our
through your conversation, and finish the job. I'm not done yet,

(19:03):
and the same with ambassadors. I'm just turned fifty four,
I'm not done yet. You know because of you that
I'm in this position now. You know, I'm telling you,
it's sort of like you reap what you sew, and
here you put in all this hard work, and now
you put yourself in a position where you can start
an entirely different career. Driving a truck into your sixties

(19:25):
over the road is a really difficult thing to do,
and now you hopefully go on a new journey, hopefully
make more money. I'm very proud of you. I hope
people listen very closely, because the decisions you make today
will greatly impact your opportunities tomorrow. I always tell my staff,

(19:45):
you know, I encourage everybody on my staff if they
want to expand out and do other work, I'm okay
with it as long as they get their job done here, Linda,
How true is that statement. I'm always encouraging people to
do that very much though. Yes, the reality is you're
going to benefit from your hard work down the road,
and I'm looking forward to the next call that tells

(20:07):
me where you landed and what you're doing and how
much better your life is. Okay, you'll get your wish.
I'm really looking forward to it. I'm if I ever
have a positive impact on somebody's life, I'm happy that
there's nothing that makes me feel better about the job
I do, so I appreciate it. My friend. We're praying

(20:27):
for you. We wish you the best. God bless you.
You know im. You'll like this story, Linda, I won't.
I'll tell you off the year who it is. I
had a conversation today a twenty four year old kid
friend of the family, and the parents wanted me to
talk to this kid about his future. He just finished
his four year degree and he has an interest he's

(20:50):
number one. He's really good with computers and he has
an interest in law enforcement is what he got his
degree in. And I just talked about life with him,
and I talked about the rules that I laid down
or try to impart to my kids. Whether they listen
is going to be up to them in the end.
As of now, pretty much they listen. And number one,

(21:11):
you got to be a good person first. You got
to be responsible for the decisions you make. You know,
number one rule is the golden rule. Treat people the
way you want to be treated. Love God with all
your heart, mind and soul, and your neighbor as yourself.
You really can't go wrong doing that. And second thing
is never do drugs ever, especially today, it's more dangerous

(21:31):
than ever before. They're putting fentanol in weed. They're making
exact duplicates of every pill imaginable and they're putting fentanol
in it, and kids are dying every day. We're losing
hundreds every week. If you drink, don't be the stupid
kid puking in the bushes because you drank too much.
Learn to drink responsibly, and there's a way to do that,

(21:51):
and never take shots. If you start with beer, stay
with beer. If you start with wine, stay with wine.
If you're gonna do hard liquor, I prefer young kids
not do it, but if they are, stick to the one.
Don't ever order a hurricane or a long iron iced
tea which mixes all sorts of alcohols. It's not going
to end well for you. And the third thing is

(22:11):
about how you treat people that you date, and be responsible,
and remember every single person has a heart, they have
a soul, they have feelings, and how you treat them
is of the utmost importance. Never use the words that
begin with A through Z. You know the words I'm
talking about, trying never to raise your voice to talk

(22:33):
to people rather than have yelling matches with them. You know,
I learned a lot of this, you know, through trial
and error myself. And I wish somebody sat me down
at that age and told me. And then I said
to the kid, find something that you love. You love
the computer stuff. He said yeah. I said good. I said, okay, well,
people that are good with computers are in great need.

(22:54):
He wants to do it support. I said, that's awesome.
I said, while you, when you at your job and
you get settled in that job, and you know what
you're doing, and you put the hours in that you
have to put in every day, try to build a
little business on the side where you can make extra
money and save that money because money equals freedom. Then
I gave him the whole money equals freedom speech. And

(23:17):
I don't know if I can help people occasionally, Linda's
that sound like sound advice or One other thing I
didn't say is you know, if you're young, don't make
your parents grandparents at a young age. That was subtle.
That was subtle. I think that says it all. I've
heard that lecture a few times in my life from you,
and I've heard you give that lecture. I think it's

(23:37):
good advice. I mean, I unfortunately, I was looking at
the numbers yesterday of how many of our NYPD officers,
and you know, I mean some of them are resigning.
You know, they're on the job. But the mayor says
it's a good thing because they can diversify the force.
It's already in New York City, it's already a majority
minority police force. Well, this is the same mayor who
said he was going to keep those crackers in check.

(23:57):
So I don't think that this is a man who
has any sort of tolerance or acceptance for people is
who they are. So, you know, the whole coexist theory
of the diversification movement is a very interesting. One hundred
people leaving, they want out, they're looking for other jobs.
They get trained by the NYPD, they get great training,
and then they're going in New York at Nassau Suffolk County,

(24:20):
or they're going to Westchester County, or they're going to
other states like Florida where they're getting financial incentives from
Governor DeSantis. But also reminds me Rick Scott did that first.
If you remember, he was the one coming to New
York with all the different ideas down in Florida. Gosh,
and between Rick Scott and Rick Perry, they were always
in New York because they were they were literally snipinging

(24:43):
off businesses and enticing them to move to Texas, Louisiana
and Florida. And by the way, they were successful, which
is why they all kept coming back. Every time they
came to town. They'd come in studio and say hi,
and we'd put them on the air yeah, and they
would say, oh, yeah, we had a great meeting with
all these wonderful entrepreneurs and great startups, and we've got
all these great vcs and angel investors, and we're gonna
bring moll down to Florida where there's better incentivization, better taxes,

(25:06):
better quality of life overall, lower crime. And you know,
they wanted to give back to those businesses that we're
giving to their communities. I mean, you just don't get
that here in New York. And now it's worse than ever.
I mean, New York is unrecognizable right now. It is
absolutely atrocious. I could I cannot believe the way specifically
talking about New York City, but New York York City
as a whole New York, upstate New York. There are

(25:30):
places in a Long Island that are very, very nice,
but that's separate and apart from New York City, New York,
to be honest with you, Yeah, and I thought, but
I've often felt like this for for a really long time. Actually,
as somebody who worked I've lived on Long Island and
lived in the city, and that I really feel like
Long Island should be like its own state. It should

(25:52):
not be included in New York City. It should not
be included in what we're doing here, like it is
literally its own state, its own thing. I mean you
you're going to see more of this. You're you're raising
a good point in Buckhead, now, Yeah, exactly. When I
worked in radio in Atlanta in ninety two to ninety six, Okay,
I remember I was in Huntsville from ninety to ninety two,

(26:14):
But when I was in Atlanta from ninety two to
ninety six, I work with Slugo, as you know, and
I've been talking to him. By the way, we're praying
for his wife, Curly. She just had an operation. She's
doing fine and anyway I lived, I worked in Buckhead,
I hung out in Buckhead and Buckhead. Now because the
defund dismantle insanity of Atlanta used to be part of Atlanta,

(26:38):
they're now seceding from Atlanta, and I think they'll do
it successfully. And they're doing it because they want to
have a real police force, real safety and security, real
law and order, and they want to clean up their
city before and not get sucked into the bad policies
of Atlanta proper. And that, you know what, that is

(26:59):
a very real effort, and that is happening in a
lot of different places all over the United States where
it's sort of like that divorce decree. I think we
did it back and I can't remember it was, oh
eight or twelve, but there was a divorce decree that
somebody put out between different parts of the right and
the left in the United States. And it's only because
it's gotten so polarized, so divisive. There's literally no conversation

(27:21):
that you can have with one side or the other anymore.
And I am experienced. I mean, I don't know if
you're doing this or having a lot of conversation outside
of work, but I mean I'm having conversations with people,
and the second that you start to say something they
don't agree with, they start yelling. And my question is
always saying, why are you yelling? Quick break, we'll come back.
More of your calls coming up. More of our discussion
coming up eight hundred and nine for one sewn at
the top of the hour, Doctor Ben Carson, where do

(27:43):
you hear the story out of New York and what
they're teaching young kids in school? Yet again, straight ahead,
three hours a day. It is all we ask on
the Sean Show. So please join us, but just don't
be late. John is John I would get into our

(28:27):
discussion about safety security for public people like us. I
can walk into a public place, a restaurant and just peruse,
you know, very quickly, and I can identify all the
people that hate me instantaneously. They can't hide it. It's

(28:48):
the craziest thing in my life. Now. On the other hand,
they are wonderful people that like my shows and listen.
But you know, I try to put myself in the
position and I'm sitting at a restaurant and by the way,
I've had this happen and somebody on the left comes
in and I noticed them I'm like, I'm like, I'll
say hello. I mean I have I am not impacted

(29:09):
by their presence at all. But I'm not even so sad.
Drink huh, it's so sad you're there. You're gonna you're
gonna eat, You're gonna have a meal. Like I can't
tell you. Many times in New York City I have
gone out and seeing somebody from another news network or
somebody who does one of the late night shows. You know,
because it's a very small circle, everybody hangs out in
the same spots, and I would never think in a

(29:30):
million years to walk up to that person and tell
them that I don't like their home address. I mean,
it's just it's apt and you you know, everyone calls
me a loser in my life, I really am, because
I don't go out that much. I don't know. If
I call you a loser, I call your hermit. I mean,
you definitely don't like to leave your house. That's definitely

(29:50):
a thought. On the weekends. I do, but I'm very
selective about where I go to, places that I know
are safe and secure, or for me, places I've been
going to twenty some odd years. That's what I do,
right where you're just sewing and it's not about let's
talk about politics and argue for five hours while you're there,
because the last thing you want to talk about when

(30:11):
you're out having dinner it's politics. No listen, and when
people say say nice things or they want to picture,
they want to say it's different. I'm grateful because there
are customers. They give us this microphone every day, and
they give us that camera every night, and I'm very
grateful for it. But I mean, it's that bad. And
you know, for me to just walk into a random

(30:32):
restaurant in New York City would be really stupid of
me at this point. Plus you don't know the food rating,
so that's also really scary. You gotta watch out. Yeah,
that's not that. By the way, I'm probably there's still
people in New York wearing their masks. So if I
want an anonymity, I put on a baseball hat, dark
glasses and a mask and it can still get know

(30:54):
who you are. You have a very particular walk and
style about you, just so you know, Oh man is
but swagger anyway, If it's swagger, it's super fast. Though.
We're gonna find out tomorrow how much the FED is
going to raise interest rates yet again. This will be
the third rate increase, maybe a half a point, maybe
three quarters of a point interest rate hike. Now, if

(31:16):
you've not contacted our friends at American Financing dot net,
I guarantee you that these six, seven, eight hikes that
will follow the one tomorrow
