1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: Now more Marks alone.

2
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 2: I'm seven time well with us right now. The greatest

3
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 2: columnist in America, Michael Goodwin. You can read them every

4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 2: Sunday every Wednesday in the New York Post and all

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: his columns are up on the New York Post website.

6
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 2: Michael Goodwin, how you doing.

7
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: Good morning, Mark? Thank you?

8
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,240
Speaker 2: Hey? What a column about our crazy governor Kathy Hochel

9
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,920
Speaker 2: who tells everybody to get the hell out. Now she's

10
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 2: telling everybody please come back. What what is going on

11
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 2: between her ears?

12
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: Well? I do believe that although the polls show her

13
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: having a big lead over her Republican opponent, I do

14
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: think there is some sign that she's running scared. She

15
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 1: may not believe those poles, but I think it has

16
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: to do with the record that she has built, and

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: she's effectively now running against her record because she realizes

18
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: it's a liability.

19
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's running against Bruce Blakeman. He'll be with us

20
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 2: in the next hour. He's a come from behind guy.

21
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,199
Speaker 2: He did it in Nassau County. He was way behind

22
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: the polls. The polls were wrong. He's got real star

23
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 2: power and he's perfect for governor. He's been the best

24
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 2: county executive in America, that's a governor's sort of a job.

25
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: So what do you think he could pull this off?

26
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 1: Goodn't he could? But I think he will need some help,

27
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: and the help will have to come, I think from Mamdani,

28
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: the socialist mayor of the city, because he is becoming

29
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,479
Speaker 1: so unpopular and some of his ideas that I think

30
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: if Hoko gets too close to him and tries to

31
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: give him the tax hikes that he wants and all

32
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: the spending he wants to do, then that's going to

33
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: be a trap for her, which is why I think

34
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: she is now trying to run away from this idea

35
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: of a tax and spend democrat, you know, trying to

36
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: get the rich to come back from Florida, trying to

37
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: fix the Climate Act, which he had been a big

38
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: supporter of. So all these signs tell me that she

39
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: sees some danger in her relationship with him and his

40
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: socialist ideas and Auntie Israel advocacy. So I think he

41
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: is kind of He could help her a lot in

42
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: the city, or he could help sink her and the

43
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: rest of the state.

44
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then the Bruce Blakeman ads just right themselves,

45
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 2: you just cut together the flip flops of Kathy Hochel,

46
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 2: and that's what did in John Kerry. Don't you think

47
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: that would ruin her in the end?

48
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,519
Speaker 1: Yes, I think it would certainly help to point out

49
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: the insincerity of her newfound concern about taxes and spending. Look,

50
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: Blakeman has been saying the right thing. We haven't seen

51
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 1: any movement in his direction in the polls yet, but

52
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: there's lots of time, and I think he's got to

53
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:16,239
Speaker 1: be quick on his seat to move to exploit every

54
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: mistake that he makes in this regard.

55
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: All right, now, let me ask you a question, if

56
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 2: you had to, you're taking a big exam, whose test

57
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 2: paper would you copy off of Hcals or Blakeman's.

58
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 1: That's a self incriminating question.

59
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. So Blakeman is a phenomenal UH County executive. He'd

60
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 2: be a great governor. And let me let's get to

61
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: mom Downy for a second. What the hell is he

62
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 2: doing going to Rikers Island praying with the inmates and

63
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 2: he's never gone and done that with cops.

64
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: I mean no, or, as I say, is he going

65
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: to go and pray with the victims of the inmates?

66
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: Probably not? I mean he has aligned himself with the

67
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: outside forces, right, whether it's a He's going to arrest

68
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: Benjamin nating Yahoo, he comes to New York. Uh, he

69
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 1: is allowed himself with the people who are problems in

70
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: New York, with people who want to destroy America, destroy Israel.

71
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: I mean, a Post has another good piece today on

72
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: his wife and her illustrations for the anti Israe crowd.

73
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 1: So he's got a very checkered record, to say the least.

74
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: And the question is can enough of his supporters decide

75
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: they made a mistake so that he has to begin

76
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: to change his song.

77
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a I mean, I don't think he understands

78
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 2: the role of mayor. It's a management job. It's not

79
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 2: right being an activist or being a of crazy.

80
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,239
Speaker 1: Mark I had the exact same thought that you don't

81
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: see a Murdy Dean mayor. You see him Dean a candidate.

82
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: He's still running and this issue, he's clearly playing around

83
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: with the city budget and the bond readings. And three

84
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: when three rating agencies within a short period say that

85
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: the city's outlook has gone from stable to negative and

86
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: they cite his plans and his preliminary budget, there's a

87
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: real warning shot across thal.

88
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, Michael good, let me ask you one more thing.

89
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 2: The idea of sending the ICE agents into the airports

90
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 2: to back up the TSA's a good idea, but I

91
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 2: can understand Democrats want to attack the idea. But these

92
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 2: crazy statements like Richard Blumenthal saying the ICE agents will

93
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 2: grab children away from their families, will brutalize people, might

94
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 2: even shoot people. What what is wrong with these blooming

95
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: all types to even say something like that.

96
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, some disease Trump's arrangement. Right, anything Trump does has

97
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: to be the end of the world, or does it

98
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: make news? And that's the way the Democrats are trapped

99
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 1: is hyperbolic competition. They have to say the most outrageous,

100
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: fear mongering things in order to get any attention. And

101
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: of course the media is happy to play along with

102
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: it because they're singing from the same tune. But look,

103
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: I do believe that something's got to be done about

104
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 1: the airports. And this is the response to Chuck Schumer's

105
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 1: refusal to vote for the Department of Homeland Security budget.

106
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 1: I mean Homeland security, I mean it's amazing. Is just

107
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: the title itself should should wake them up.

108
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 2: Well, I wouldn't count on it, but Michael Goodwin great stuff.

109
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: Read his column, his Sunday column if you missed it,

110
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 2: and you can get all his columns. They're all up

111
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 2: on the New York Post website. Michael Goodwin every Sunday

112
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 2: and Wednesday. And thanks for being with us.

113
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: My pleasure, Mark, thank you.

114
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 2: Take care if you haven't seen that bloominhal tweet. And

115
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 2: then there was a Chuck Schumer on Morning Joe this morning,

116
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 2: huffing and puffing, and I mean, you've got to give

117
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 2: the President credit when it comes to trolling Democrats. He

118
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 2: is brilliant at it. The idea of sending ice into

119
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 2: the airports, What a great way to aggravate them into

120
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: doing something. And watch ice will do a great job

121
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 2: speed up things, and then the Democrats will go even

122
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 2: more nuts. We're gonna talk to Bruce Blakeman in the

123
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 2: next hour. We've got a lot coming up, a lot

124
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 2: to get to. We'll get the justin Timberlake, they released

125
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 2: the body cam video of his arrest. We'll get to Hey,

126
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: here's another great trolling from President Trump. Will get to

127
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 2: this the next hour. Don't forget Buck and Clay at

128
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 2: Noon today with an excellent show. Then you got the

129
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 2: most listened to radio show in America, Sean Hannity at three.

130
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: You got Jesse Kelly at six, and a very funny

131
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 2: Jimmy Fayla every night at nine on seven ten WR
