1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: Now I think I am more interested in seeing how 2 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: Zoran Mandarmi goes than any other Democrat that I can 3 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:08,959 Speaker 1: remember in a very very very long time, because I 4 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: genuinely am not sure if this is going to go 5 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: brilliantly for him and he's the next big thing, or 6 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: he's the next big disappointment, because there is no way, 7 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 1: is there, like no way at all he's going to 8 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: be able to do everything that he's promised. I mean, 9 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: he might be able to do a rent freeze in 10 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: New York City. Sure, that's an easy thing to do 11 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 1: as a stroke of a pen off you go, but 12 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: might backfire, like it might lead to fewer housing units 13 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: being added, which ultimately makes the problem worse. He can 14 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: pick something else to do. He could do free childcare, 15 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: hugely expensive. He could add a two percent tax on 16 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: incomes over one million dollars, but he may find those 17 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: incomes start disappearing from his city. Either way, he's going 18 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: to have to pick some of his pet projects and 19 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 1: go with just a few of them because doing absolutely 20 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 1: everything is just not going to happen, and that's going 21 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: to lead to disappointment, surely for the voters who truly 22 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: believe he can do all these things. My gut, though, 23 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: says that the disappointment will not be great because if 24 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 1: there's one thing we learn from Donald Trump, it's that 25 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: breaking promises doesn't actually really matter that much if you 26 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: represent something to voters. Donald Trump represented the anti establishment, 27 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: so people stuck with him even when he broke his promises. 28 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: Mamdani represents the anti Trump, so I think people will 29 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: stick with him even if he breaks his promises. I 30 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 1: actually suspect, by the way, that this is going to 31 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: be very good for Donald Trump. I think he's going 32 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: to love having Mandarmi around because he will be able 33 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: to use everything that Mam Darmi does to berate him 34 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: and the Democrats. Every time a promise is broken, He's 35 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: going to because because Mamdaney is the opposite of him, right, So, 36 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: ma'm Danney just becomes the bad guy in all of 37 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: his stories from here on, and he pumps himself up. 38 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 1: However this goes for Mam Darmi. I think we can 39 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: all agree this is now turning into a must see show. 40 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: For more from Heather Duplessy Allen Drive, listen live to 41 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: news talks it'd be from four pm weekdays, or follow 42 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: the podcast on iHeartRadio,
