🔴 Shove the Blackpill up Your A$$: Trump's American Comeback is On! 2025-06-30 18:07

Is a campaign about inequality.
And you don't have to live in the most expensive city in the country to have experienced that inequality because it's a national issue.
And what Americans coast to coast are looking for are people who will fight for them, not just believe in the things that resonate with their lives, but actually fight and deliver on those very things.
And part of how we got to this point was through the endorsements of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Bernie Sanders, who've been leading this fight against oligarchy across the country.
And I think that in focusing on working people and their struggles, we also return back to what makes so many of us proud to be Democrats in the first place.
So let me be really clear.
I've talked about this.
Inequality is not a problem in and of itself.
Poverty is.
Okay, poverty is a problem.
And you see much more poverty in New York.
You also see more inequality.
Across the rest of the country, in rural areas, like you talk about, for example, Oklahoma or Texas, you see far less inequality in those areas, to be clear.
Inequality is not the problem we need to address if we are lifting more people out of poverty.
You can have more equality and have far more poverty.
Or you could have more inequality, but you can have rising wages, right?
Those are both options.
You can also have more inequality and you can have more poverty.
That's what happens in New York City.
But what they do is they prey on greed.
And this is something that's very important because when people say I'm a compassionate conservative, no, I think conservatism is already compassionate.
I think that you work hard and you should be able to keep what you have earned for your family.
To be clear, the left, their version of compassion is preying on this inequality.
So it doesn't matter what you have.
It doesn't matter if you're better off.
It's, hey, they have something you don't.
It's basically an entire platform that campaigns on human covetousness, on human greed, while gaslighting you into saying you're greedy for wanting to keep what you've created, what you've earned.
You're not greedy for wanting to take that person's stuff.
Inequality is not the problem.
It can be.
When we see the greatest wealth transfer, for example, in our lifetime during COVID to the big tech giants, why?
Because mom and pop grocery stores were locked down and shut down.
But you can still go to Costco.
You can still go to Walmart.
Amazon made a killing.
Right?
The inequality is almost invariably exacerbated by big government policy.
Too big to fail?
That's a policy that demands inequality.
If there's a policy that says you're not too big to fail, even though you're a private business, but you are because you're big enough, you have now just created inequality.
Inequality in variable outcomes for the average American.
Maybe this person tried something on their own, took a risk and makes $80,000 a year.
Maybe they make $50,000 a year.
Maybe this person started and they were more successful and they now make $350,000 a year.
That's not a problem if people have equal access to opportunity and more people are being lifted out of poverty.
For example, inequality tends to grow no matter what in a nation that is successful, right?
That just tends to be the natural trajectory of things because you have people who figure out how to take advantage of that system.
And as that system gets bigger and government gets bigger, there tend to be more levers that those people can pull.
There was inequality that did widen under Donald Trump, but for the first time, average wages went up in three years over $4,000.
They only went up $1,000 under Barack Obama.
Now, inequality was widening under Barack Obama and certainly under Biden, to be clear.
Wages went down $4,000 under Biden.
So what's the bigger problem, that inequality tends to widen under Barack, under George Bush, under Barack Obama, under Donald Trump, under Joe Biden, no matter what the policy is?
Or would you rather address the issue of your wages?
And part of that can be addressed by allowing you to keep more of your wages, as we see.
They want you to vote for them out of covetousness while accusing the people who've worked their ass off and want to keep it of being greedy.
Now, this doesn't work with everyone.
Not everyone is enamored with Mamdani, especially President Trump.
Here's his post.
He wrote, It's finally happened.
The Democrats have crossed the line.
Zoran Mamdani, a 100% communist lunatic, has just won the Dem primary and is on his way to becoming mayor.
We've had radical leftists before, but this is getting a little ridiculous.
He looks terrible.
People say, I would never say that.
They said this could be the end of my career.
Not supposed to say it, but everyone says, he looks terrible, horrible.
I say, don't say that.
His voice is grating.
He's not very smart.
He's got AOC plus three.
Dummies all backing him.
And even our great Palestinian senator, crying Chuck Schumer, is graveling over him.
Yes, this is a big moment in the history of our country.
And when he saw the video that we have of Mamdani eating...
Yes, we do.
Roll it.
He said, gross.
So the third home.
Gross!
That's what he wipes with.
You see how they eat the rice with their fingers, lick it as they do it, and then chuck it back into the bowl?
Let's go.
Tell me, why is pedestrian a part of your politics?
When you grow up as someone, especially in the third world, you have a very different understanding.
Yo, you could steal a fork.
Fuck you.
I've seen slum dog millions.
I order food.
They come with six forks.
I know.
I know.
Fork?
I don't know.
I actually wrote no utensils.
They gave me extra utensils.
Yeah, that's exactly right.
He didn't grow up poor either.
Let's just be real.
You're a trust fun kid.
Even Chinese people are like, I would rather use two little stick.
Two stick.
Than use my finger.
That is disgusting.
What?
Your country you know have tree?
Go take stick off tree.
Good big poop.
Still you.
This is the same party, by the way, that told you to sing happy birthday while washing your hands in COVID, right?
And to sanitize your packages.
And he's eating with his hands in a bowl after just wiping them on his pants like an animal.
Take a wet rice dish.
For no reason.
He's got rice and some meat and sauce on it.
He's just putting his fingers in there.
Why would he say, vote for me?
The old way of doing things is not always the best way, just to be clear.
Sometimes, sure, you need to respect traditions.
And sometimes you go, ah, you know, it's a good thing we have forks.
Yeah, or a spoon.
You know, you can go With a spork, if you're crazy.
Which, by the way, it doesn't really take that much ingenuity to look at food, realize that your hands are getting sticky.
Cavemen used a rock.
They were like, hands gross.
Rock.
Clean.
It would be more sanitary and would look wet, less off-putting if he just put his face in there like a dog.
Yes, yeah.
Just that would be way better.
Yeah, like a clown being pied.
Yeah.
Horizontal.
Yes.
It'd be fine.
I'd be less grossed out.
I don't like them.
That's the point.
Neither.
And by the way, I'm not the only one.
You even have Democrats who are going like, oh, I think we're going a little too far.
And then, of course, all the DNC, they go like, shut up.
So Chicago mayor, former Chicago mayor and Obama advisor, chief of staff, Ram Emmanuel, and professional shower poker, he came out and he said, my party's future isn't Mabdani's New York.
We won't realize the American dream by consulting the Democratic Socialists of America's playbook.
Why do you think a Democrat like Rahm Emanuel is sounding the alarm bells?
And people like James Carville, people who, you know, have actually won elections, have actually helped to win elections.
Whether you agree with them or not, they are effective.
I think we're seeing the disconnect between clickbait and X and social media.
It can become real life, but to be clear, it doesn't always reflect real life.
And if you look at Reddit, for example, if you were to go on Reddit and read Reddit politics and look at the comments, you would think that everyone in this country is a Democratic socialist and certainly everyone in the Democrat Party.
Now, the little trick they pull on Reddit is they say it's politics and all voices are welcome.
They ban you if you're a conservative, to be clear.
And they certainly ban you if you're a Trump supporter.
The moderators are basically Gestapo.
So you would think that.
Then you go out in the real world and you realize that even with Democrats and certainly people who were like Hispanic Democrats, black Democrats, they're not on board with all of this and certainly not the gender bending fiat.
It's been a fiasco for them.
But they're able to create a viral campaign and they're able to win a primary.
And then the people who have to vote Democrat because they're New Yorkers, this is what they're left with.
But I think you're seeing a real disconnect from real life and social media.
And I think that those who are sounding those alarm bells are saying, this isn't going to win.
And even if this wins in New York City, it's going to be catastrophic historically, and it's going to lose us our national platform.
And so I hope they continue to do it.
I want to see more AOCs.
I want to see more Bernie's.
I want to see more guys like Mamdani.
First off, because they only get elected in these radically left districts who get exactly what they deserve.
And it's really good to have real life in real-time cautionary tales so America knows what to avoid.
I want to see more of it, too.
I want to see AOC eating that rice with their big long fingers.
Ooh, better yet, one of those things they put on the horse to eat.
Feedback.
Feedback.
That kind of sounds perverted.
Yeah.
It's not.
Food.
Well, I've sucked on a couple feet bags, if you know what I mean.
She's been eating with her fingers.
She eats one of those horse poop pegs, too.
Oh, yes.
So I won't lie.
Sometimes I see those and I'm jealous.
I'm like, oh, he can just go whenever he wants.
Ah, Joe Biden had it all.
Yeah.
I want to make sure that you.
Oh, sorry.
I wanted to just, and then I want you to keep that point, but this is important because you need to know, here's how you know that it's unpopular.
Because the baseline position that helped win Donald Trump the presidency is, okay, we all agree that America's big cities are failing, right?
And everyone goes, right.
Do you have a solution?
In other words, the contention was not with the premise of America's cities are failing.
Everyone knows that's the case.
Across America, no one thinks that New York is a success story.
No one thinks that Detroit is a success story.
No one thinks San Francisco, Los Angeles.
No one looks to those cities and goes, okay, we should do more of that.
So he campaigned on criticizing, knowing it was a populist issue, the failing cities, big cities of America.
And so I say to the people of New York, with crime at record levels, with terrorists and criminals pouring in.
Gavin Newscomb and Kamala.
And I want to say Kamala more so.
She destroyed San Francisco and she destroyed the state.
I looked outside, I looked at the streets, and it's so different from when I left New York.
It's so different.
It's dirty and it's crime-ridden.
And today you walk down the street, you get mumbled or you get shot.
Within the span of a few decades, Los Angeles has gone from being one of the cleanest, safest, and most beautiful cities on earth to being a trash heap with entire neighborhoods under the control of transnational gangs and criminal networks.
It's horrible.
I look at Chicago.
I mean, you've got a really bad governor in Chicago and a bad mayor.
But the governor is probably the worst in the country, Pritzker.
But I look at how that city has been overrun by criminals.
And here's the thing.
You're never going, or you're very unlikely to win New York City.
But what you saw as far as a really big shift, and a lot of people haven't spent enough time on it, was the popular vote.
Donald Trump obviously had an electoral landslide, if you want to argue.
Okay, he had a significant win with the Electoral College, but he won the popular vote.
So even if more people leave New York City, the people who are leaving New York City are going to be leaving with the, in the back of their head, I don't want that.
And that's what led to, in 2024, the biggest swing toward Donald Trump, urban voters.
Doesn't mean he won them, but he won them by such a significantly, or sorry, he lost them while still getting a significantly higher margin, such a significantly higher margin in 2024 that he won the popular vote.
That was a big contributor.
That wouldn't have been a big contributor if they didn't go so far left.
They've now had what they've asked for.
They go, ooh, I was wrong about that.
Sort of like COVID.
COVID, the reason you saw so many people turn on the Democrat Party is they said, give unto us a king.
How many people do you know who said, oh, yeah, I was afraid and I thought we needed lockdowns.
I was afraid and I thought we needed to stop the spread at that point, right?
Remember, stop the curve.
Then I realized I was lied to.
People need to realize they've been lied to sometimes.
Yeah?
That's a lot of people.
It's a lot of people.
Because you think it won't get that bad until you see neighbors ratting out neighbors and you see people losing their livelihoods because of policy that we now know was not based On science.
So the urban voting swing in 2024, core urban votes swung to Donald Trump by eight points.
Other urban areas, 5.8 points.
There was still an increase as far as the swing to Donald Trump, but in the suburbs, it was about 4.5%.
Rural, it was about 3.7%.
Those are areas that he typically has already won.
Republicans win.
Did better.
And he did better in those areas, but he won a huge number of new votes in urban areas.
And you don't need that many to maintain this popular vote.
What if that goes to core urban votes, a swing from 2020 to the next to Republicans, plus 10, plus 12%?
The Democrats would never win the popular vote ever again.
In New York, from 2020 to 2024, the swing toward Donald Trump was 10 points.
He gained by 10 points.
In New York City, he gained by 16 points.
He went up 16 points in the election.
Doesn't mean that he won New York City, but he gained 16.
That's a huge city.
In California, he went up by nine points from 2020 to 2024.
San Francisco, the bluest of the blue, he gained eight points in four years.
Illinois, the state at large, six points.
Okay, but when you consider that Illinois is basically Chicago and cornfields, Chicago itself by nine points.
And so we don't need really a new plan.
We have the blueprint.
Let the left do exactly what it is we know they're going to do in these big cities and do the opposite nationally.
And since we all know that leftists, that Democrats are very covetous, as you can see by tax policy, people in Chicago, people in New York, people in Los Angeles are going to look to the rest of the country and go, but I want that.
Great.
Let them see what it is that they want that they can't have because of what they voted for and will continue making these swings.
Don't interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake.
Mamdani, I think he should be the poster child.
He's pro-crime.
He's pro-every single quote-unquote woke social policy.
He's pro-increasing taxes.
He's an actual communist, and he will fight Trump at every turn.
So he will fight the decrease in inflation that we see throughout the country at every turn.
He will fight the increase in wages, which you undoubtedly will see, calling it now, everywhere else across the country while his wages go down in his city.
He will fight Donald Trump's agenda, which will lead to continuing decreasing crime stats while it goes up in his city.
And at a certain point, selfish people in big cities are going to go, you know what?
This just isn't working and it's bad.
And when they think this isn't working and this is bad, wouldn't it be nice to have a face to go with their name?
Mamadani?
The name you know.
Yes.
I'm sorry, you had a point I just wanted to say.
I think you're 100% right.
I hope that he's able to, if he wins, like obviously we'd like somebody else to win and avoid this catastrophe.
But if he does, I don't.
Well, I mean, yes and no, right?
I understand that point.
But at the same time, I want this to be so good.
I want Trump's economy and his plan to work so well that it makes people like this irrelevant in the first place.
We've got AOC and Bernie Sanders that are really going out there and just kind of throwing their lot in, full socialism, not even worrying about hiding it anymore.
So is this guy, seizing the means of production?
What do you think that means?
What do you think that looks like practically?
This isn't a fight against oligarchy.
Don't get this twisted.
It's a fight against free markets and freedom.
They don't want people to have freedom and self-reliance and accountability.
They want people to be dependent on the government and have the government decide winners and losers from now until eternity.
So in the short term, if he gets elected, he will make their lives better for a minute.
And then the consequences will start kicking in very, very quickly.
And Trump has to be so good that it just makes this look like the absolute worst decision any city has ever made.
And they don't even come close to anybody like AOC and Bernie Sanders ever again.
It has to be so definitive that we kill socialism as early as possible.
Yeah.
But let it go on a little longer.
Let it go on a little longer in New York City.
I get it.
Let them live with it.
Yeah.
Let them wallow in their own filth.
Yeah, it's like when you see your kid on the jungle gym doing something you know he can't do, but he insists on doing it over and over and over again.
You're like, all right, fine.
Try the rock wall, stupid.
I agree.
I agree so.
Yeah, then they had to go in and.
The ground's padded.
Try the rock wall.
Yeah, they had to pad the ground like pussies.
That's what they do in the city so the kids don't get to actually learn the error of their ways.
Well, maybe New Yorkers will like the actual people that come out for the general election for this race and not just the primary.
Maybe they'll go like, ugh, we maybe made a mistake.
Like maybe this guy's policies are too radical and we just weren't paying attention because the fraction of the voting base that voted for this, you've got Democrats coming out.
Like mainline Democrats don't support this vocally.
They support a candidate that's popular, period.
That's what they always do.
But they don't necessarily support the policies.
This is the far wing of the party right now, and it's fracturing the Democrats because they're like, hey, maybe we can get some votes.
I don't support those policies, but maybe.
Yeah.
So we'll see.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't think they're strong enough in condemning it with their language.
Yeah.
Eric Adams hit back at him, though.
Oh, did he?
Do we have a clip?
Well, it's not a clip.
Initially, there was that 50 Cent post where he said that he'd send him the plane.
$58,750.
I'm not sure why.
Wait, wait, wait.
I don't understand what you guys just said.
Okay, so first off, 50 Cent said, where did he come from?
Whose friend is this?
I'm not feeling this plan.
No, I'll give him $258,750 and a first-class one-way ticket away from New York.
I'm telling Trump what he said too.
And Eric Adams responded to that.
He said, hey, 50 Cent, make it a one-way ticket to Fantasyland.
He'll fit right in.
It's the only place rent is optional.
Vibes are currency, and your parents still cover your deductible.
Ah, that's nice.
Damn.
Dirty little fan.
This from Eric Adams.
Yeah.
He's going to get trounced.
Yeah, but he courted these people too.
Black Lives Matter.
It's all this amalgamate of socialism and Marxism.
I mean, you can't throw your lot in with Black Lives Matter who seek the destruction of the nuclear family because it's a byproduct of Western civilization, oppression, and patriarchy, and then go, I can't believe how radical this guy is.
Well, you built him.
You built him.
Elizabeth Warren, you built this guy.
Kamala Harris, sex change Operations, taxpayer funded?
Well, where did we hear that before?
You're a role model of this guy.
Yeah.
It looks up to you.
What did they do?
Let me try to make it more.
I'm going to be like you dead.
You know, I'm going to be like you.
It's Harry Chapin if it's communist.
You can't see it.
Did I been watching you?
Got a sex change just the other day.
And Votimond Dick just had to see.
Let's go on with a bad surgery.
It's a bad surgery.
It's a rough surgery.
Let's go on with some chat.
All right.
Real quick, if you want it, they did send us the reporter from the Ruyville segment.
The Rueville.
Oh, never in a million years guess who this man is.
Okay.
All right.
Now, first, we're following late breaking news on Mario.
Oh!
China.
Shaquille Lord.
Shaquille Lord.
He's a big fan of China.
Another word they can't say.
Shakir.
Shakir.
Road.
Are you saying Shakira?
Shakirard.
Shakir.
Shakirard.
Yeah, Shakira.
Hips don't lie.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Hips do lie.
No, Shakira.
Shakir or I don't know what you're saying.
I feel bad we're making fun of this guy for no reason.
He's probably a nice coach.
He's probably a cool dude.
I'm sure he's fine.
He tried to turn on like, China.
I think it's cool for that.
I think it was awesome.
I think it's cool.
He does it for every country.
He looks way too happy to be sitting at a desk right now.
That face looks photoshopped on there.
It looks like you should be eating a turkey drumstick at a fair, not sitting in a news desk at a local.
You know his soul is dying every day at work.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Juicy.
I mean, he's local.
He's always sitting across from like, oh, and this is something that you blacks like to do, correct?
He's like, you're a bit, Sheila, but sure.
It does look fun.
I always feel so bad for local news reporters because, you know, they went to school like journalism, then they realize they make no money and they have to cover horseshit.
Ah, some of them like it.
Some of them really like being a local news reporter.
Some of them do.
Maybe some.
Some of them do.
Some of them do.
We're covering the remote control boat race down at the local lake.
It's a dream come true for me.
Back to you, Sheila.
That's right.
And I hear next week you'll be doing some grape stomping for us.
We really look forward to it.
I can't wait.
My feet have bunions like you wouldn't believe.
That's right.
Be sure to prepare with some sunscreen and Dr. Scholl.
Back to you, Shaquille.
One of the funniest videos ever.
The lady falling over and almost dying.
Yeah, it is.
Apparently, it sounded like it.
I think she got overzealous.
I think the wind got knocked out of her, and that's really what it was.
You got to save some energy once you go national.
You don't put it all into the local broadcast.
All right, let's grab some chats.
All right.
First chat from R. Rubino94.
Christopher Crowder.
Why didn't Zoran Mamdani eat chicken wings or something if he wanted to eat with his hands?
Does the third world only eat slop with their hands?
Well, they only have access to slop.
That's fair.
That's like they're going to say.
That's true.
That's fair.
Dad, what are we having for dinner tonight?
Slop.
Oh, I have a surprise for you.
A very special dinner.
Slop.
Ah, I see.
Yeah, that's why I like every ethnic, like nice ethnic restaurant with anything close to a Michelin star is just slop on a nice plate.
A lot of them.
A lot of them.
I do Ethiopian Swedish cuisine.
Yeah, Ethiopian.
I was watching Iron Chef.
This guy sucked.
He was like, I do Swedish cooking style with Ethiopian ingredients.
And you look at it, it's just slop.
It's just sloppy wet rice cardamom.
Sometimes it can be tasty.
Sometimes it can be tasty.
Like I like Thai slop.
I don't understand why.
Yeah, but don't sell it to me like it's a $65 dish.
No, no, no, no.
And I certainly don't want to eat with my hands.
When you go for it.
I don't get it.
I really don't.
I mean, him eating with his hands, what constituency?
It's pandering.
That is pandering.
It's 1,000% pandering.
It's such bad pandering.
There are a few guys watching from Queen to like, Mom Donnie, he's just like me.
They're also counting on this.
They're counting on this right here.
Us talking about it, going like, oh, third world, blah, blah, blah.
He eats with his hands, disgusting.
So they can go, look at these racist Republicans.
They're so afraid of brown people.
Yeah, just afraid of hand eaters.
No, just afraid of salmonella, E. coli, listeria.
We did discover germs.
I'm not pro-genocide, but I'm pro-spork.
There you go.
I think that's a fair middle ground.
It's something.
It's not a Taco Bell gives you a spork, right, to save money.
I don't know if they still do that.
They're like, we don't have forks and spoons.
It's a spork.
And you're like, you know what?
That's fine.
They gave you it for the Mexican pizza because it's so soggy you can't pick it up.
Right.
Yeah.
They know.
I bet you this guy could.
Can't do it.
I don't like Ethiopian food very much.
No, it's not good food.
No, it smells like meat.
They try to eat it.
It smells like a meat.
It smells like farts.
They're like, look, it's from Africa, and it's always made fun of, but it's actually...
It sucks.
Yeah, it's pretty.
It's like, oh, let me guess.
Lentils and spongy bread.
Oh, surprise.
Throw a little bony goat in there.
Okay, I get it.
All right.
We're not saying tacos are amazing.
That's not fake.
No.
They're not good.
They're amazing.
Yeah, tacos are good.
Corn dogs are great.
I think Indian food is mostly great.
Tomato soup rules.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Ethiopian food sucks.
It's not very good.
Is there any other African food that we're supposed to like?
I've only ever heard Ethiopian food.
Ethiopian is like the big one.
There's like, you got to try this Ethiopian place.
No, I don't.
I'm trying to crook crickets and rice.
It's not, right?
I can't think.
There's no like...
Yeah, Egyptian, I guess.
Egyptian food, what do they eat?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Dates?
Dates?
Dates are good.
No, dates are good, though.
The point is that if it's the cradle of civilization, they've had access to the raw ingredients for far longer than everybody else.
And I don't think there is an African Gordon Ramsey.
No.
Oh, hey, you call this a burrito, you fucking donkey.
Now, if Ethiopian food I found out was like elephant.
Yeah.
Or lion.
Yeah.
I'd be like, wow.
Ooh, that we do have to try.
Or if they were like eating with like a full tusk just as a power move.
He'd be like, okay, all right, I get it.
No, it's just, it's not that.
It's not a tusk.
It's just rice a guy made after not washing his hands.
Right, with very soggy bread.
Very, very soggy bread.
There's nothing good about Ethiopian bread.
I'm sure one of you in chat is Ethiopian.
You're like, hey, sorry, whatever.
Next chat.
Ethiopian food.
It's made with UN ingredients.
Yes, yes.
This is the first image I found for African food on it.
Like, you look at Caribbean food and stuff, where it gets pretty good.
Are they eating hyena?
I'd eat hyena.
I don't know.
They're scavengers.
Is it like Laffy Taffy?
Does it come with a joke?
Because of the hyenas.
I understand.
No, don't explain.
Because they sound like they're laughing.
They do sound like they're laughing.
Also, the highest PSI bite pressure of any land animal.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Way more than a lion.
Wow.
Because they have to crunch bone and stuff, all that stuff.
They just see what they can get.
Scar was smart.
Yep.
He got the right people to do his bidding.
He's also gay.
Scar.
Yeah, obviously.
That's what the Scar was from.
I'm from the shallow end of the dream pool.
It's like, you're a gay lion.
Remember when he said, run away, Simba.
Never return.
Do you remember that part?
I do remember that part.
Mufaso, stop.
Yes, he did.
Even when he was fighting, he was like, he was his pawing was like, ah, ah.
Stop cackling like a bunch of hyenas.
There's this whole backstory on Scar now.
Jeez.
Oh, he's gay.
That movie's coming out.
I never thought about that.
That movie's coming out.
This gay scar?
Yeah, gay scar.
Scar's coming out.
It'll be Disney.
It's not called gay scar.
This is basically how Disney writes their plots, anyways.
Scar and not from cutting something off.
His name's Gash now.
Yeah.
Appendage coming to a theater near you.
Just a sequel to Seagal's exit wound.
All right, next year.
Did you see Seagal attended Putin's brain or whatever?
Putin everything.
And he just, he's just, that guy is a pustule waiting to pop.
Oh, my gosh.
You'd love to be the one to pop it.
Oh, man.
I would pay money to see you fight Steven Seagal, man.
Bad things would happen.
Sad things would happen.
You would say, I'll give you a backstage pass.
I go, no, I'm paying for this.
Yes.
Yep.
No.
I want to see it.
No, two Stevens.
We'd pay full cover price to see that.
Can we reach out?
I train for two days.
I'd be like, all right, I'm fine.
And just go in and just mop.
You think he'd be better off not training.
I think so, too.
Because I don't think.
I'd overthink it.
Like I'd be preparing for something that he has no ability to do.
Like, oh, my God, he can't punch.
He can't lift his arm above his ribcage.
I guess I'm just going to slap him and run around until he tires out and then curb stomp him.
All right.
Next chat.
Next chat from C. Verard.
Question for everyone.
If Momdani drives people out of New York, how much do the rest of us, I guess, have to worry about New Yorkers screwing up our states and towns when they move in?
They could, but I'll tell you this.
A lot of Californians who moved to Texas, they came here and they went red a lot faster than people realized.
So some of them, sure.
Some of them want to make Texas like California.
But if you look at the actual voting electorate of our state, it's gotten more red in a lot of ways.
It's a lot of people that moved.
That's a good example.
The West Coast, not just California, it's the West Coast.
People moved to Texas.
But it's a lot of people that weren't Democrats in the first place or were very much on the fringe, right?
So it's like, I think you see a lot of people moving from New York that have money, the people that have businesses that are like, okay, my margins are too thin now.
I hated this city this whole time.
It sucks.
No one likes it.
I'm raising kids.
I can't do this.
I'm just going to shut it down and start over in Jersey or go to Connecticut or go to Pensab, somewhere else.
I'm going to set up shop and I'm going to have a business that actually has good margins.
I don't think it's going to be a lot of lefty tards coming over.
I think they're going to be like, this is great.
This is exactly what I wanted.
I'm going to stay here.
Now people are moving out.
Maybe things can be cheaper.
Culturally, you might run into some problems because I've always said this.
New York City is just the largest city of rednecks that exists.
Because if you think about it, people are like, I want to raise my kids in New York so they get a cultured experience.
Well, sure.
They learn how to be effective New Yorkers, and that means nowhere else in the country.
Yes.
That means they go anywhere else in the country.
It's like, wait a second, I should drive myself.
Wait a second.
I actually am in charge of my own schedule.
Wait a second.
I'm not beholden or dependent on the government for everything.
Wait a second.
I have a yard that I have to maintain.
Oh, wait a second.
I actually have to budget around an income that is sensible as opposed to the inflated incomes in New York that still don't get you by in the cost of living.
Wait a second.
I have to provide my own piecemeal on the train?
Yeah, exactly.
Wait a second.
There's no train?
Oh, yeah.
That's a big one.
I had someone in New York when I lived there.
They're like, don't you just love New York?
It's just so convenient.
I can take the subway anywhere.
I said, it took me 40 minutes to go two and a half miles because I had to wait for three subway cars that were full that passed me by, went back up above ground where I was no longer living like a sewer rat, and tried to hail down a cab, but because it was during rush hour, I couldn't get one and I had to walk, whatever it was, 30 blocks.
It took me 40 something minutes to do something that would take maybe six anywhere else in the world.
Okay, call it 20.
Call it 15 anywhere else in the world.
The only reason it went so long is because you're relying on this subway and sometimes you just can't catch it and sometimes you can't get a cab.
The safety, to me, it was strange.
When I was up there for the New York Mayor thing, or not the New York Mayor thing, we were doing the COVID thing.
I looked around and I saw parks just like filled with middle-aged, like ethnic guys just sitting there looking like they were waiting on something to go do.
And a kid and their parents kind of playing on a separated park that was right next to it.
It was like a little fence between it.
And I was like, I would never feel safe.
No.
And I'm not, it wasn't the ethnicity of the people.
It's just like, they're just sitting around waiting for something.
And I'm like, look, I've got kids.
Yeah, growing men at a park.
I'm talking about like safe, safest neighborhoods.
I don't want them around people that I don't know, period.
Like one or two, much less 60.
There's just no way.
When I was living in New York and I was looking at an apartment, it was a selling point.
It was down at St. Mark's Place.
And it was a studio.
And they go, there's no living room, but that's what the neighborhood is for.
I don't want the neighborhood to have to be my living room.
I want a living room to be my living room.
Yes.
I want to be able to sit back and relax and enjoy some quiet time, which just doesn't happen.
Yeah, that's what I want to do.
I want to go out to the courtyard and listen to Jamaican music.
Yeah, exactly.
And I walked out looking at this apartment.
I saw a guy shooting up right like on the stoop.
And I'm like, oh, right in my living room.
Why would you do that?
Right in my living room.
Sorry, Toshi.
The pull-out stoop.
Yeah.
Why would anybody make that choice?
Like, if you can live other places, especially if you're raising a family, and I hope this doesn't sound like, you know, somebody who just lives in the suburbs and just doesn't Understand the city, like the grit or whatever it is.
I'm just like, why would you choose to do that?
Like, you can, yes.
But the safety factor alone for me is just like the biggest factor.
I'm just like, I just, I just would never feel safe.
Like, it's just far too easy.
It's culturally enriching, Gerald.
Yeah.
Yeah.
With knives.
Yeah, exactly.
With sharp knives, things that can poke holes in you.
I don't want that cultural enrichment.
No, I mean, you're just thinking, think about what it takes to maintain, you know, a home and your yard and these skills that you need to kind of learn that you just can't in New York.
It's a totally, it's a totally different life experience.
And they're very, you have people who go their entire lives who never get a driver's license, who never drive a car, who never have a piece of land at all to maintain.
And it's just, I'm sorry, they don't have a common lived experience in New York City compared to 90-something percent of this country.
Let's grab another chat.
All right, next chat from Anti-Federalist Payne.
Question for the crew.
When will we acknowledge that sanctuary is treason?
Amen.
Adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.
Terrorists have been found receiving sanctuary benefits.
I completely agree with you.
Yep.
And I think that this administration is at least taking the first step and just ignoring it.
They're just like I said, I do think that we're kind of at a point in this country where the left wants you to get distracted with some issues that are actually non-ideas.
It's just something they throw out.
You're like, how do I address the Sunnis like the Ayatollah?
What?
So you just go, get out of here.
Just like the guy going, the black community has to deal with obesity and diabetes because of the stress of being called the N-word at some point in their life.
It's like, there's no way for me to refuse that.
Just get the hell out of here.
It's the same thing with sanctuary cities.
Donald Trump is just going like, no.
And Hankseth are going, we're just not doing it.
Well, then they're going to sue you.
Okay, fine.
We're just going to act like federal law is federal law and you don't have the ability to commit treason.
And then eventually, you know, you find some specific examples where it's really clear.
And I think, yeah, I do think it's treasonous.
I really do.
I would highly, highly target those cities.
Oh, yes.
I would, I mean, enforce everywhere.
Highly concentrate your efforts on those cities.
Well, because they gathered everybody for us.
That was nice of them.
Oh, by the way, I'm CNN.
They're debating the lessons from Mamdani Surge and NYC.
Let's see what they say.
Almost single-handedly on cost and affordability issues.
And that is one of the biggest takeaways of Democrats that I talk to that said that is what won the election.
Maybe we all don't agree on how to address cost and affordability, but we're speaking to what is most concerning to people.
So, you know, there are studies.
Come on, Slim Shady, get it out.
They are also petrified.
Democrats are petrified of this as well.
But as one Democratic operative told me, it's not about left versus right anymore.
It's about are you speaking to a wide array of people, the working class people, the people who need the Democratic Party the most?
It's almost class-based in a way.
So probably.
Almost.
Are the working class people the ones that want all the free shit?
Yeah.
No, that's exactly.
I don't think they are.
If he does get in, I'm going to be president, and he's going to have to do the right thing, or they're not getting any money.
Who would you be poised to support in New York?
I know that you have to.
I don't want to say that because, you know, I have a lot of people, a lot of friends, and I have everybody.
So I don't want to get into that.
I can tell you this, whoever's mayor of New York is going to have to behave themselves, or the federal government is coming down very tough on them financially.
That's a very good answer.
I mean, Phil Manningly, it's worth noting.
Obviously, the president has already kind of been involved in this.
Is it worth noting?
Eric Adams, the current mayor of New York, is a very important part.
He obviously was indicted, and then that indictment evaporated when Donald Trump became president.
How do you see the general election here playing out?
Confusingly, with a lot of reasons for almost everybody's in case the governor's races that we do and should care a lot about aren't giving us enough news on a day-to-day basis, we'll have plenty to go from.
And this front, I think it's fascinating that there is a Republican nominee in that race that the president has not endorsed yet.
And I think that's kind of funny, clear that the Adams element of this makes this all extremely wild.
But Mark, I'm not sure Republican and MAGA are the same thing.
No, I don't think they're not.
They're not the same thing, especially not a Republican in New York City.
And Donald Trump also likes to have a winning record, and he hasn't really had the best winning record in endorsing candidates.
So why would you endorse a candidate who has no chance of winning?
Why would you waste your political poll on that?
I also understand that.
Well, it is hard to understand for CNN because it's hard to understand anything other than blind party loyalty.
But if you're going to try to get like, so let's just say that, you know, you hate Eric Adams and you're kind of a Democrat and this guy's a socialist.
Are you going to go to the guy that Trump said to go to?
Because you probably hate Trump too already.
So Trump is staying out of this.
If he continues to, I can see a reason why he would, like you said.
It feels like there's no great options.
He likes to win.
He wants to be a winner.
He's not a loser.
Not a loser.
He's not a loser.
He's a winner.
He's aces.
So, yeah, no matter who he endorses, I feel like he goes, well, it's not going to be great.
Mom Downs.
Don't always endorse somebody who's going to do poorly, even if they win.
Like an Eric Adams or that Republican guy.
I forget.
No, I think you're right.
And I think that CNN just doesn't know how to think how U.S. counties shifted from 2000, 2,600 shifted more Republican, only 301 counties shifted more Democratic.
Is that even true?
I thought how U.S. counties, that's all of our counties.
Sounds right.
Well, remember the map that CNN brought up that she didn't shift one county?
Maybe it's just Kamala Harris specifically didn't shift one county.
You're talking about overall election.
She did shift.
She is the reason why a lot of these counties shifted to the GOP.
Yeah, no, I hear you.
Yeah.
And she was more left than most candidates would be.
She was more left than Biden.
She was more left, and she was unabashed.
She was left.
And the AOCs and the Bernie's of the world right now are like, hold my beer.
Yeah.
Left.
AOC and Mom Danny work nowhere in the country outside of the Bronx in Manhattan.
No.
Mom Donnie, this is something I just thought of.
Mom Danny, if he wins mayor and ruins that city, that's way worse for AOC.
Right.
She endorsed him.
Bernie, people are going to go, well, fuck that.
I think the people who vote for them, there's no reaching them.
The people who actually vote for them and then re-elect them, there's no reaching those people.
Those people don't care because they want to seize production.
You heard him say the quiet part out loud.
Seize means of production.
That is communist manifesto.
Seize the means of production and distribution.
Ooh, seize the means of voting, too, while you're at it.
Yep, that's what they want.
Yeah, seize the voting.
As Stalin said, I believe it was Stalin, who said it doesn't matter who votes, it matters who counts the votes.
Was that Stalin, or I don't know who it was.
It was someone like that.
I don't know who it was, but I know the quote.
But, you know, anytime you centralize power, you end up with more corruption.
Okay, final chat, and then we'll send you guys off to Tim Poole and see you tomorrow.
I think that was Daniel Day Lewis in Gangs of New York.
I don't know, but it sounds like something that guy would have said.
That vote, that's a kill boy.
Same character in every movie.
Every movie.
I'm the butcher.
I'm an oil man.
I'm a theater actor.
I'm a Mohican.
I'm an Indian boy.
I have two left feet, boy.
He's a method actor.
That's right.
Say method.
Give me my crucible.
All right, next.
All right.
Final chat from Newcastle 777.
Question for crew.
You're telling me this whole time we could have been forcing Dems to read out their insane policies?
If that's not the case, why are they wasting the time?
What do you mean, why are they, who's wasting the time?
Like Schumer and them reading the big beautiful.
You can call for the bill to be read.
It's just stupid.
Yeah, no one pays attention to that.
That's why we have to spend so much time going through bills and kind of pulling out what it is that matters, that affects people, and they'll pay attention.
No one's going to read a 900-page bill, just as surely no one's going to listen to someone reading a 900-something page bill.
Yeah, and they all went to sleep.
Yeah.
All right.
Give me one more chat.
Okay.
I do understand the point.
Final, final chat from Ethan Helms.
Did you see that the ACLU is creating a class action lawsuit against birthright citizenship to protect unborn persons?
They may open the door for pro-life lawsuits.
Yeah, but again, here's the problem.
You're using logic.
You're expecting there to be some kind of consistency where you're going, okay, so because you, right, you probably, I'm willing to bet that you probably have a very clear definition of what constitutes a life, as every biology textbook has had.
And you're going, okay, an unborn person, this is still a life because there's unique DNA that's created at fertilization.
So you're consistent and you're expecting to hold them to consistency.
They don't care.
The ACLU will bring this case to protect unborn persons and then they'll bring a case to kill unborn persons to protect a mom's choice.
That's what they'll do.
They will do that, just to be clear.
The ACLU is not about liberties at all.
Sometimes they used to be a little more balanced, where it's like crazy libertarian, where they would protect the right for someone to have a burqa on their driver's license, and then they'd also protect the right of someone to say something that was like white supremacy.
Now they pretty much just take the woke policy of the day and say, okay, how do we frame our lawsuits around sort of pandering to this group because that's their base?
So I understand.
I understand where you're coming from.
But don't make the mistake of applying the same kind of logical consistency to the left because they don't.
And don't make the mistake of thinking that holding them to that will be fruitful at all because it won't.
I mean, you just need to look at the time.
Again, the problem is progress for the sake of progress warps into something that is completely illogical and contradicts itself.
You're talking about the people who have Palestine flags next to rainbow flags.
And you know what they do?
When you present some kind of logically consistent argument, you go, well, how can you have those two flags next to each other?
They go, oh, yeah.
Oh, let me guess.
Oh, okay.
You're going to say because they're anti-gay.
Whatever.
That's just a tired point trope.
Yeah, but that's not refuting it.
It's still completely illogical to have these two flags next to each other.
Yeah, you're just tired of hearing it.
Yeah.
That's the only thing.
Yeah.
It doesn't address the point.
They won't address the point.
So I would say try and address the results.
Try and address the results from the left because you're not trying to reach those people who are not making arguments in good faith.
They're making these arguments in bad faith.
You're trying to reach the people who may have voted for them, but who are negatively affected, negatively impacted.
And I understand this because if you look at, and you see this a lot, if you look at debates on the right, and if you go to like libertarian think tanks or you look at, you know, people who are maybe like a traditional conservative debating a libertarian, they'll constantly try and trip each other up.
Like, well, hold on a second.
Buy that logic.
And they go through, right, the rhetoric, usually using the Socratic method, and they'll defend it and go, no, no, no, actually, I'm not inconsistent because, right?
You'll see that a lot amongst the right, because it's sort of an unwritten code.
You have to be logically consistent or your position falls apart.
The left doesn't have to be.
You don't see those same debates.
It's, I'll give this and I'll give this.
And the other person doesn't say, yeah, but you said that you would give that, but then this fund went bankrupt.
What the other side just says is, I'll give more.
I'll give more than you.
And look, I'll appeal to the marginalized group more than you.
They don't actually call each other to the mat on consistency or on something that is logically sound.
That's not a part of their platform.
It doesn't matter.
That's why they are also losing the American working class.
And that includes everyone.
From $40,000 a year, anyone who pays any taxes up to multi-millionaires.
Everyone except for billionaire oligarchs who effectively benefit from big government programs, they go back to the left.
You see that consistently.
But they have shifted away from the Democrat Party in droves, meaning people on the factory line, people who own small businesses, to people who own franchises and make a few million dollars a year.
All of them have moved away.
The only people left are the people who go, okay, all right, what are you going to give me?
How can you justify my lack of success?
How can you give me victimhood status so I know I have freebies coming to me?
And they try to out-compete each other.
There is nothing logically consistent.
So your point is well made, and I agree with you.
It's like, when you're trying to argue logical consistency with the left, it's like pointing a gun at a dog and it licks it.
