1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,640
Speaker 1: When I get out of my car and film, I

2
00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 1: just put on the app fifty five KRC the talk

3
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: station five O five A fifty five k r C

Speaker 1: the talk station sen Prophetic, well vation, Well we're excellent

5
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: choice to sound by Sarahsstrecker, executive producer. Appreciate that five

00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 1: one three, seven nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and

Speaker 1: eight two three talk down five fifty on a T

8
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: and T. Found love to hear from people in the

9
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: reaction to the election, which was pretty much just slaughter.

10
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: Uh vva gramas Whamy summed it up pretty well, Uh

11
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: we got our asses handed to us. That's a quote

12
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: from the fake Ramsey. I think it's going to be

13
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: the next governed in the state of Ohio. But after

14
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: yesterday's election, I guess I got to scratch my head

15
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 1: and wonder why Hamilton County last resident. I'll bring the

16
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 1: flag at least from the city of Cincinnati anyhow, dah

17
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: he heard the top of the air news there I

18
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: voting for the same old, same old. But when only

19
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: twenty six percent of the people show up to vote,

20
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: you can expect that. I guess that sort of the

21
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: reality of the city of Cincinnati's voters. Yeah, all the

22
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: incumbents got elected, of course, with one seat open. Congratulations

23
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: Ryan James, he's your newbie, the ninth councilman member who

24
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: made the grade.

25
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 2: And I am.

26
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 1: So, so so heartbroken the Christopher Smithman is not a

27
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: council member again, just you know, of all the races

28
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: that were going on, and I you know, I'm a

29
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: practical man. I like Corey Bowman. I think he ran

30
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: as good a race as a Republican with you know,

31
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 1: no electoral experience or no elected experience. I could have run.

32
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: You know, this whole brother of JD. Van's thing, I'm

33
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: sure had an impact. And they have a lot of

34
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: pundits commenting on the election and thinking that this, you know,

35
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: this Trump derangement syndrome played a large part. But voter turnout,

36
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: I think who's more motivated to go to the polls

37
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: really really really angry anti Trump, evil Orange man type

38
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: folks or anybody else out in the world. Just getting

39
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: people to go to the polls. I guess Trump derangement

40
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: syndrome really drives people there. But it's sort of status

41
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: quo in the city of Cincinnati. I went to sleep

42
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: last night thinking you know, it's probably going to be

43
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,679
Speaker 1: status quo in the city of Cincinnati again. Oh lo

44
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: and behold, it's sure as hell is so you got

45
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: Kareny Johnson, Owens, I'll be Jefferies, Wallace, cameronon and Nolan's.

46
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: Any of that sounds sounds familiar to you for residents

47
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: of the city. And now James right behind James, Liz

48
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 1: Keating and Christopher Smithman. James got six point nine percent.

49
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: That was the lowest that qualified you for election to council.

50
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 1: Keating came in at five percent and Christopher three point

51
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: six percent. So depressing. Yeah, I personally am And you

52
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: can go ahead and have some shot in freud. If

53
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: you don't like Brian Thomas or his politics, then there

54
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: you have it. Enjoy, relish in it, wallow in it.

55
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: It's okay. I can can go. I've dealt with electoral

56
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: losses and I don't take them personally. I would like

57
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: to see the country go in a different direction. But

58
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: here we are, you know, and it's the interesting vv

59
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: Ramase on me and a lot of other pund you know,

60
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: politicians and others. Commenting on the race yesterday, affordability, he

61
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: said the party should shift it shift its focus to affordability.

62
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: Vivic did make the American dream affordable. And he also

63
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: suggested Republicans shouldn't should stop playing identity politics. And this

64
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: is where I kind of, you know, I'm out of

65
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: alignment with v Vig's comments because I don't recall that

66
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: race and religion were a big deal in this election.

67
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: It's pointed out he didn't elaborate on that identity politics comment,

68
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: but some suggested that the Republican's attacks on Zorhan Momdami,

69
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: who's the next mayor of the New York City, focused

70
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: that he was a South Asian Muslim born in Uganda.

71
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: I don't remember that necessarily being an issue. I thought

72
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: it was all about him being a Marxister socialist. But

73
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 1: apparently that works out well with the voters in the

74
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: New York City who are frustrated again by the cost

75
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: of living. So this is winning in a prayer time.

76
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: The current Democrats, for example, running the city Cincinnati, running

77
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 1: New York City, didn't provide any solutions to the problems

78
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 1: that plagued the area. And they're comparable in New York

79
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: and Cincinnati, and the crime and homelessness, I guess to

80
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: a certain degree affordability keeps coming out over and over

81
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: and over again in the assessment of yesterday's election, I

82
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: honestly do not know how you know a local politician

83
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 1: can deal with affordability issues. I think New York City

84
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: is in for a world of hurt with Mom Donnie's proposals.

85
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,239
Speaker 1: Should they become reality. It's only going to make matters worse.

86
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 1: But we're all going to sit back with our popcorn

87
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: out and watch the whole the thing burn. And as

88
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: I you know, scan through all of the local election results,

89
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 1: one of them stuck out, I think a little bit

90
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: more than the others. Joe Strecker. Did you see what

91
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: happened in Anderson Township? Anderson Township Josh Garth and Lexei Lost.

92
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,559
Speaker 1: I thought that both of them were really respected folks.

93
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: I thought they were doing good job as trustees. Now

94
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 1: they came in third and fourth. I guess Anderson Township's

95
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: gone blue. Former Anderson Township trustee Drew Pappus had rather

96
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: pointed in comment to make on Facebook to his fellow

97
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: Anderson Township residents, and I appreciate what he had to say. Anderson,

98
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: hang your head very blanking low. Just about six hours

99
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 1: ago from Drew Pappas, and people are like, what's going on?

100
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: Every single Democrat, one person noted the looms or here

101
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: is so fueled by their Trump rangent syndrome and arrogant ignorance.

102
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 1: That'll be the ruination of this township, Anderson township. Maybe,

103
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: But I guess was it low voter turnout there? Also?

104
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 1: The motivation was so strong on the Democrat side of

105
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 1: the equation that what I thought was a solid red township.

106
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: And apologies to folks out there that are, well, what

107
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: about my race? What about my township? I'm just my

108
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: perception of Anderson has always been that it is very,

109
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: very a conservative community doing really well economically. They've got

110
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 1: a lot of business building, a lot of you know,

111
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: I mean, it seems like a very well oiled machine.

112
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: So I just my mouth literally fell open on that

113
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: one when I saw it. So just kind of scratching

114
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 1: my head and wonder, let's see what Steve's got to say. Steve,

115
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: thanks for calling this morning. I appreciate the assistance because

116
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: basically I'm kind of at a loss. What's on your mind? Steve,

117
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: Thanks again for calling.

118
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 3: I'm just going to make a correlation between how Republicans

119
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: lose elections and Democrats, I mean, are you going to

120
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 3: move out of the country and.

121
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 4: Start rioting and all that.

122
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 3: No, No, we take it with a grain of salt

123
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 3: because we're we're not We can think three steps beyond

124
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 3: a situation. Yeah, the town a lot of the townships.

125
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 3: I think you start digging into townships that are conservative. Uh,

126
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 3: look and see what's changing in it. I know one

127
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 3: township specifically, people are moving out of the I don't know,

128
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 3: the Democrat run cities and moving to the townships. But

129
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 3: then they want to come there and make and change.

130
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 3: Like I know one area a Democrat moved in and

131
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 3: wants to get rid of the good o boys and

132
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 3: again Range has been there for sixty seventy years because

133
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 3: he doesn't like the noise. So it's like they're trying

134
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 3: to once again, like you say, they move out of

135
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 3: New York City, Democrat city states, move into a Republicans

136
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 3: because it's so nice, low crime, low taxes, and then

137
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 3: they want to change it to the crap where that

138
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 3: came from.

139
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 5: Sorry for the words.

140
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: No, that's all right. I'd sum it up that way myself,

141
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: and it's okay to use the crap word in the

142
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: five o'clock our most notably, although I think that one

143
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: passes mustard between six and nine as well, but regardless, Yeah,

144
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: I mean that's the big worry for everybody out here

145
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: where things are really nice and you have this nice conservative,

146
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: you know, small government mentality, and you think things are

147
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: going along swimming La crime is low, you know, business

148
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: investment is great, housing is being built, and then you know,

149
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: it becomes an attractor zone. It's like Texas. They drew

150
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: all the Californians who fled California during COVID, and because

151
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: of all their crazy, bad crap policies, they all move

152
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 1: into Texas and everybody thinks, oh my god, Texts is

153
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 1: gonna end up being a blue state. You're importing all

154
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: the bad ideas that you ran away from. How much

155
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: sense does that make? But we'll wait to take go ahead.

156
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 3: And like Tom says, don't vote Democrat, don't don't vote rhow.

157
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:07,559
Speaker 1: I think tell him to tell him to start putting

158
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: put down on a three fours a chance. Yeah, we

159
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: had a little wristbands, no vote Democrat, vote right, And yeah,

160
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: I guess the message didn't get out at least didn't

161
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: get out to enough people, and it wasn't motivating enough

162
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: to get people off of their well asses and into

163
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: the polls. Yesterday again you'll have got one out of

164
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: four people in the city voting. Uh, welcome to reality.

165
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: It's going nothing is ever going to change if people

166
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: just don't bother. And you know, I would love to

167
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: be able to, you know, sort of see what it

168
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: would look like an election where all registered voters actually

169
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: came out and voted. Maybe the results would be the same.

170
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: I don't know.

171
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: And again I know that the city is overwhelmingly blue

172
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: and Hamilton County is apparently blue. And God bless Josh

173
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: Berkelewitz and Betsy Sunnemon they both lost, those two wonderful judges.

174
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: And see that, to me is a reflection of political ignorance.

175
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 1: You couldn't find a couple of better people in terms

176
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: of judges, Sunderman and Burkerwood's they lost. But you know,

177
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: I guess again pondering that sort of unrealistic thing that

178
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,319
Speaker 1: will never ever happen. If you're registered to vote, you

179
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: actually go and vote, would the landscape look any differently?

180
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: Or I mean, are we irreparably damaged, completely lost to

181
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 1: this blue wave? And will it get even bluer? A

182
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: lot of questions swirling now. But the Democrat Party, you know,

183
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: a couple of gubernatorial races, big wins for the Democrats

184
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:47,199
Speaker 1: in New Jersey and Virginia, but they were moderate candidates

185
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 1: compared to the of course outcome in New York City

186
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: with ma'm donnie will. How will they reflect on this?

187
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: Are they going to push that more centrist messaging like

188
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 1: they were able to do in those states? Or are

189
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: they going to go full on Mundami and embrace this

190
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: far left socialist mentality that remains to be seen. A

191
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: lot of challenges and a lot of assessing going to

192
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: happen happen in the aftermath of this one. Ted, you

193
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: are on the phone, and I will promise to get

194
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: your call immediately after we return. It's five point sixteen.

195
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: I got to take a break, but I appreciate hearing

196
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 1: from anybody. I am at a code of a loss in

197
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: terms of assessing this. And we all have sphincters, right,

198
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: we all have opinions. I'd love to hear yours. Feel

199
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: free to call me this morning. Be right back.

200
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 2: John Hannity.

201
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: Host Apocalypse one Day, fifty eight hundred two three Talk

202
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: High Green Brewery, Bretwood location. If you want to get

203
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,439
Speaker 1: drunk today, come on over, have some listener to lunch,

204
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 1: and we'll drown our sort of staring difficult disbelief off

205
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: into the distance. John, you hang on Ted's first, Ted,

206
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: thanks for holding over the brake there. Welcome to the

207
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: Morning Show.

208
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 6: Good morning, Brian.

209
00:11:59,000 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 7: Hey.

210
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,439
Speaker 8: I just wanted to say that I share your disappointment

211
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 8: in the election results.

212
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 4: Thank goodness.

213
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 8: I live in Dark County, which is solid.

214
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: They read yes, sir.

215
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 9: The only other thing that I can say is, like

216
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 9: my older brother used to say, you just can't fix stupid.

217
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: Well, you know what. I think you may be right, Ted.

218
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: You can't fix apathy either, and you can't fix a

219
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: lazy electorate that doesn't bother to get up and vote.

220
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: You know on that one, Ted, I was just looking,

221
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: for example. I'm so disappointed that Josh Burke, Wroicks and

222
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: Betsy Sunimon didn't win. But I was looking at the

223
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: number of votes counted in all of Hamilton County, and

224
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: I recognized there were different municipal court regions in there,

225
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: but less than forty thousand people decided the race. I mean,

226
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: in case of Stephanow and Sunderman race less than it

227
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: was right at about twenty seven thousand residents decided that race.

228
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 1: There were some races where it was a real squeaker.

229
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 1: But I mean, I think of the total number of

230
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 1: people in Hamilton County, it's a pretty substantial number of people.

231
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: But when you see that the election came down to

232
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: only let's say, fifty people bothering to show up, Well

233
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: there's your answer. I don't know. I don't know how

234
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: you get people motivated. I guess maybe people don't go

235
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: ahead that.

236
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 4: They need to get motivated.

237
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 1: In my opinion, no question about it. Dad, Have a

238
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 1: good day and enjoy things up there in solid red

239
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: dark John, thanks for calling this morning. Welcome to the

240
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: Morning show, sir, Yeah, good morning.

241
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,320
Speaker 10: How are you not well?

242
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 2: Right?

243
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 7: Well?

244
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, like it's all out of my hands.

245
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: I did what I could. I showed up and voted

246
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: on a few races. None of it, I guess most

247
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: of them did. That doesn't matter, and sims downt you.

248
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: But you know, I went, I participated, and I am

249
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: just laying witness to the results and just I guess

250
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly disappointed. Sums up how I feel this morning. Not

251
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: necessarily because of the outcome of the race, but because

252
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: of the point I made, so few people determined the

253
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: outcome of the race. Right.

254
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 7: Well, what I'd like to say is, if you think

255
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 7: the roads are bad now, you probably might want to

256
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 7: invest in the most heavy duty suspension truck you can buy,

257
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 7: because they're really getting ready to get bad.

258
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: I think you're right, John, I really do.

259
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 7: Oh.

260
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: I know I'm right. I've been right for years.

261
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 4: I've been right since twenty fifteen.

262
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 2: I'm not.

263
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 7: It's not maybe I'm right, might be right, could be right.

264
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 7: I grew up in Cincinnati, I grew up in Wyoming, Ohio.

265
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,479
Speaker 7: I grew up in a nice neighborhood. And it's all

266
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 7: going to helen. You know why it's going to hell, Brian,

267
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 7: because look, let me get back to you right here.

268
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 7: Let me let's lay this down for you. See where

269
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 7: this if you follow the crux of this, it all

270
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 7: started in twenty fifteen. Who was mayor in twenty fifteen?

271
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: That was uh, oh God, don't test me like this.

272
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: It's so I'm still reeling from the outcoming.

273
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 7: It was John Craandly That's who the mayor was.

274
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 2: John.

275
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: The last thing, Yeah, I'm listen.

276
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 7: Got okay, so follow the balancing ball. So here it's

277
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 7: where it all started that nobody ever seems to pay

278
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 7: attention to. And I don't know where you were, and

279
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 7: all these Republicans that call in with their half assed nonsense,

280
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 7: you know, calling in the radio and everything, and that's fine,

281
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 7: but it's all a bunch of jive. And I'll tell

282
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 7: you why the problem began. When Cranley turned that into

283
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 7: a sanctuary city. I told everybody, this is exactly what

284
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 7: was going to happen. And I couldn't believe the turnout.

285
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 7: There was probably me and maybe maybe twelve people down

286
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 7: there to defend against that. But I saw this coming

287
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 7: in twenty fifty. And it's too bad that your radio

288
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 7: station and everybody else's in't down there on board to

289
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 7: defer this. Then we wouldn't be in this boat. Because

290
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 7: this is a formula just.

291
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: Started, John, I hear you, and you know it was

292
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: declared a sanctuary city. But in what way did that

293
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: declaration transform the city and result in maybe the roads

294
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: not getting paved or pick an issue that the city

295
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: is in control over, and how did the sanctuary city

296
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: designation make things worse?

297
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 7: This is a formula.

298
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 5: This is a formula.

299
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 7: It's not like just Mayhem. It's a formula in all

300
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 7: Democrat cities, and he was a part of it, just

301
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 7: like now they're getting ready to eculate the complete socialism

302
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 7: and communism.

303
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: I hear, I hear what you are saying. In what

304
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: way did let's say, an influx of illegal immigrants impact

305
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: the outcome of this vote? First off, they're not eligible

306
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: to vote, and second off, only one out of four

307
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: voters that live in the city even showed up. So

308
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to draw the connection between the sanctuary

309
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: city designation and the outcome of yesterday's election.

310
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 2: That's all just to explain that you don't think, you.

311
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 7: Don't think those corrupt policies pitions didn't manipulate that situation

312
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 7: to make it make it come out to benefit from

313
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 7: them to be able to vote. They manipulated the situation

314
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 7: because it was a plan all along.

315
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: How did they manipulate in what way? John? You explain

316
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 1: that you don't think?

317
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 7: You don't think those people got signed up and put

318
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 7: on the register illegally the vote. I wonder how many.

319
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 7: I wonder how many legitimate voters there truly are they?

320
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: Now this is where I was looking for you. You're speculating.

321
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,880
Speaker 1: You you're saying maybe the vote was manipulated. You don't

322
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 1: have any facts or information on that, but was it?

323
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: Just was it the twenty five percent of people that

324
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: showed up to vote? Was that just all the illegal

325
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 1: immigrants that did this? I mean, you know a lot

326
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: of people didn't show up. I'm just trying to I'm

327
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: isolating this specific sanctuary city designation because you're the one

328
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: complaining about it, and you're criticizing the program for not

329
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: focusing on it. And we talked a lot about sanctuary

330
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 1: city designation personally. Because illegal immigrants cannot vote, I don't

331
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 1: view it necessarily as a voter influencer problem. I mean,

332
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,959
Speaker 1: people might be upset with the outcome and the result

333
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: of an influx of a bunch of illegal immigrants that

334
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: might change their vote. But maybe the city residents, the

335
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: ones that showed up, like the idea, you know, maybe

336
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 1: they embrace it and want it. I don't know. I'm left.

337
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: I'm just sort of like you, asking out loud, But

338
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: I haven't been able to isolate that one as being

339
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: particularly impactful on the overall vote. I may be wrong.

340
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: I'd have to ask people that actually showed up to vote,

341
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 1: What influenced them, what cause them to stick with the

342
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: exact same group of people In spite of the fact

343
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: that everyone admits and agrees, we've got a crime problem

344
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: on our hands, we have an infrastructure deterioration problem on

345
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: our hands. We have some pretty incompetent decisions by the

346
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: current administration. Welcome to another couple of years the same thing.

347
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: I guess. Finally, six, if I'm curious to the doc station,

348
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 1: what Saie Jim is queued up looking for? I think

349
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 1: you about Carecity Talks five three seven fifty hundred D

350
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 1: two three talk on five fifty on at T phones. Yes,

351
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: I'll take all the help I can get this morning

352
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: as I struggled to sort of process this processing it,

353
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 1: you know, and his the prior callers point five. Maybe

354
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: it did have an impact.

355
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 11: I don't know.

356
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 1: Personally, can't see it. But you know, we all have opinions,

357
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: and I welcome them here in the morning show, especially

358
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: when it comes from west Side Jim. Always great hear

359
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: from you, west Side Jim, truck Commander. I want to

360
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 1: thank you initially for your your willingness and assistance with

361
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: the operation of the election Day yesterday. Notwithstanding the outcome.

362
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 12: Well, Brian, it was a long night and for the outcome,

363
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 12: I don't know if it was worth it or not, buddy,

364
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 12: But I know one thing I got to agree with

365
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 12: John on. Sunset's not going to be paid. So you

366
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 12: got something to talk about for the next four years.

367
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 13: You know.

368
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 1: It's funny because Corey Budman was heading heading on over

369
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,959
Speaker 1: to I guess it was Salor Park yesterday. He texted

370
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: me listening to the program and he said he saw

371
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 1: some construction trucks, road paving trucks on Sunset. He said,

372
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: maybe Sunset's going to get paved. They look like road

373
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: paving equipment. Anyway, I'm not holding my breath for that.

374
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 12: No, And that's as you know what, of all the losses,

375
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 12: that's the one that hurt me the most because I

376
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 12: grew to, you know, Corey Bowman really well, and I

377
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 12: got a new friend out of this.

378
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, good friend. And he worked his rear end.

379
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 12: Off on this campaign. I mean, and it showed, you

380
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 12: know that that blue piece of paper it was a

381
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 12: lady Command complained that there was no pink copies being

382
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 12: sent out. My polls had pink copies. Yeah, there was

383
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 12: three names on it. Three names, Brian. Now, how can

384
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 12: the Republicans break break ranks and get in there? If

385
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 12: you've got three names and you're.

386
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 2: Fighting twenty nine people, that's about it.

387
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 13: One possible.

388
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 1: Well, and you know, I guess the problem Republican Party

389
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 1: generally has is if there isn't an R after the name,

390
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,679
Speaker 1: they won't endorse. I mean, Steve good and lost. I mean,

391
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: what an outstanding man he is, and he what a

392
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: wonderful benefit he would have been to the city of

393
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: Cincinnati on council. He just worthy of anybody's endorsement. But no,

394
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: you don't get a Republican endorsement because he ran as

395
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 1: a charterright. So that's one name that wasn't on a

396
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: pink slip, even though it would have been a nice

397
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: nudge in that direction. But let's face it, Jim, you

398
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 1: can print out all the pink slips in the world,

399
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: with all the wonderful candidates in the world ignoring party affiliation.

400
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 1: If people aren't going to get up and go out

401
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: and vote, it's going to be a worthless exercise.

402
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 12: There was thousands and thousands of pink slips. I saw

403
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 12: him down at the headquarters. He just said nobody was

404
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 12: on him. I mean three there was nothing. There was

405
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 12: nothing that was an embarrassment. And then you hit Don Dreehouse.

406
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 12: You know, there's the name that didn't make it because

407
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 12: of his sister and so forth. A dree House name

408
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,880
Speaker 12: always gets elected, no matter what they're run for. When

409
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 12: I was up at Prycell Chilli yesterday, we always split

410
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 12: the outside room and the Republicans get half the room

411
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 12: and a Democrats get the other half of room. And

412
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 12: of course Corey was basically the focal point of all

413
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 12: the news programs. But by then, man, I mean, people

414
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 12: had voted. And when I saw thirty thousand early voters,

415
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 12: I basically knew from his past history that this thing

416
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 12: was going to be basically over unless it was all

417
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 12: thirty thousand Republicans.

418
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 2: And I knew better than that. I just I don't know.

419
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,719
Speaker 12: I mean, I live in a city, and right now,

420
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 12: twenty six years ago when I bought this house, if

421
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 12: I knew twenty six years later, I had never bought

422
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:34,120
Speaker 12: the city.

423
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 2: That's for dagon. Sure.

424
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, we all can't read the future, Jim, and I

425
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,679
Speaker 1: certainly understand. Well, just make sure you bring the flag

426
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: out if you finally decide to give it up. But

427
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: you know, I could go going back to numbers. Total

428
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,719
Speaker 1: votes for mayor basically come in around sixty six thousand,

429
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: and how many residents are there in the city, Jim.

430
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 12: Oh god, there's two or three hundred and thirty thousand,

431
00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 12: sixty six Yeah, yeah, three hundred and thirty. But that's

432
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 12: not all voters.

433
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's people.

434
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: That's people, right, I mean, even if half of them

435
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: were registered. You know, you're looking at a total of

436
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,199
Speaker 1: sixty six thousand who voted for mayor. It's fifty one

437
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: six went to Aftab and fourteen and change went to

438
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman.

439
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 12: And you know, I text you this morning about that

440
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 12: that medical that pervol had hit in those medical bills.

441
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: You mean the medical bills that had already been written

442
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 1: off by the providers. Yeah, that yeah, okay exactly.

443
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 12: And I think that makes a difference. I mean, these

444
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 12: people think, okay, we got that taken care of, what's

445
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 12: going to be next and if we if we would

446
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 12: have got Corey Bowman in there or anybody on council,

447
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 12: are they going to give us stuff the way the

448
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 12: Democrats did? And that's I mean it plays. Ah, it's

449
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 12: just like this a school levy. You know the thing,

450
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 12: well is, well, raise taxes, and that school levey went

451
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 12: went down or went up by crazy it did. I

452
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 12: mean they passed that thing though.

453
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: I think it was like seventy yeah, seventy three, twenty seven.

454
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 1: And from the when the reporting came in, since my

455
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: public school tax levee overwhelmingly for and then.

456
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,959
Speaker 12: You keep, we keep telling people if it doesn't raise taxes,

457
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 12: but if you if you voted down, your taxes go down.

458
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

459
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 2: No, I know.

460
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: And I was surprised. Across the board. With a couple

461
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 1: of notable exceptions, most every single levee passed. You know,

462
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 1: we're all screaming and whaling about property tax increases and

463
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 1: our property taxes are so outrageous, and yet every time

464
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: you go to the polls, you end up voting for

465
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: more of the same. Hey.

466
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 12: Well, and there these are the people that complain after

467
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 12: their kids get out of school that the taxes are

468
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 12: too high. Yeah, you know, it's the same in a

469
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 12: city that Well, I'm a renter and it doesn't affect me.

470
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 12: Yes it does, because after the taxes go up, your shoot,

471
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 12: your rent's going to go up unless you're on section eight. Yeah,

472
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 12: Anderson Township. When you talk about Anderton Township.

473
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: That one blew my mind.

474
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,719
Speaker 12: That's a shocker. That's a real shocker. I agree with Andrew.

475
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 12: Those people out there. I don't know what they just did.

476
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 1: Well, maybe they'll find it.

477
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 12: Yeah, but did take Delhi Briant. They had two trustees

478
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 12: around with not no opponents. What would have happened if

479
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 12: the Democrats would have thrown opponents there? I mean, I

480
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 12: think the outcome would have probably been the same, But

481
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 12: still are we guessing? I've seen Cheryl Seevie at the

482
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 12: polls yesterday. She pulled up where our truck was and

483
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 12: she was still scared to death because of what was

484
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 12: going on. And she didn't even have an opponent.

485
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,400
Speaker 1: Wow, so she was scared and even didn't and didn't

486
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 1: have an opponent. Maybe she was frightened of something other

487
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: than the race.

488
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 2: Exactly.

489
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 12: Well, she's worried about the future, of course, of course,

490
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 12: but you know, and not having an opponent, and she

491
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 12: she was frightened to the whole thing. And she came

492
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 12: up for lunch yesterday and she looked like a scared

493
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 12: gravity and I kept telling her, you don't have an opponent,

494
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 12: so I don't know. It's like that word, it's slaughter.

495
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 12: And I don't think we'll ever recover from this. I

496
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 12: really don't in my lifetime. That's for Dion.

497
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 11: Sure.

498
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 1: I hate to give up, and I would like to

499
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: remain somewhat optimistic that people will wake up to reality.

500
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: But if you don't pay attention and you don't get

501
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 1: up and vote, you're not going to change the dynamic.

502
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: I mean again, going back to council, every single one

503
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: of the incumbents re elected.

504
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 2: Except that one new guy.

505
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, damn, Ryan Jample.

506
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 14: I didn't even see a sign for him.

507
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 1: I don't even recall reading his name, Jim before I

508
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: got up this morning. Who is Ryan James. Well, maybe

509
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: we'll find out, But given the paucity of local reporting

510
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: on the antics of Cincinnati City Council, all will remain quiet,

511
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: I suppose at city Hall.

512
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 12: It just makes me shake my head.

513
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: Brian, I too, am shaking my head this morning. Jim,

514
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: I certainly can hear it in your voice. Don't give up,

515
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: don't give up, Just try to remain positive and we'll

516
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: all well, I guess just watch and see what unfolds.

517
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: There's nothing else we can do but that right now.

518
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 2: A party, got a party they've got to change.

519
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: Well, do what you can. I mean, if you know

520
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: where the problems are within the Republican Party here in

521
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 1: Hamilton County, then get on them. I I the machine

522
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: needs a little bit more oil. Perhaps, I don't know,

523
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: Jim Again, this.

524
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 2: Needs some new blood that knows what to do.

525
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,959
Speaker 12: The Democrats. I'll give the Democrats credit. Yeah, their machine

526
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 12: knows what to do and they've done it for a

527
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 12: long time. This is not something that this happened yesterday.

528
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, no, no. I mean this is

529
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: why I think someone like an Iris Rolie is so

530
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: important to the per of all administration. She is well

531
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: connected with a lot of people who probably do and

532
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: did go out and vote.

533
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:41,399
Speaker 3: Right.

534
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: You know, you got these activists, they're well connected. They

535
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: all communicate with each other. Social media has made that

536
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: so easy to do the rabbit in their politics, and

537
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 1: that motivates them to go to the polls. It's like

538
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,919
Speaker 1: Trump arrangement syndrome that probably got a lot of voters

539
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: off of the couch nationally even I mean you look

540
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: at some of the other races where the Democrat that's

541
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: one there's a lot to that. I find it weird.

542
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: I think it's a diagnosable phenomenon. But there is so

543
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 1: much pent up anger and wailing and gnashing of teeth

544
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: about Donald Trump generally speaking, that that'll drive people to

545
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 1: the polls.

546
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 2: Well, okay, Bryan.

547
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 12: Lastly, I did see a quote from Donald Trump's this

548
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 12: morning when I was watching TV, and it's Donald Trump

549
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 12: said Donald Trump wasn't on the ballot, that's why so many,

550
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 12: so many Republicans lost.

551
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 2: I don't think that's true.

552
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: In typical Trumpy in fashion, Yes, that's exactly what I

553
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 1: would expect him to say.

554
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 2: Thanks, Brian, keep your chin up.

555
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: Jim, hope to see a lunch today. I understand if

556
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: you can't make it, but we are going to be

557
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: over at the High Green Beer Brentwood location. If you

558
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: want to show up a listener lunch, I'll be there,

559
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: and yes, I will have a beer in my hand. Tom,

560
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: hang on, you're first out of the gates. Five point

561
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 1: thirty nine right now. If your five KARCD talk station,

562
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: fifty five krc RED span the talk station by forty three.

563
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 1: If if you have KRCD talk station, Let's go straight

564
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: to the phones. Somebody didn't get the message. Tom, welcome

565
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: back to the Morning Show. Good to have you call

566
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: in this morning as always.

567
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,719
Speaker 10: Yeah, it looks like a lot of people didn't get

568
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 10: the message. You have the people who didn't even bother

569
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 10: to go vote, And all I can say to those

570
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 10: people is I don't want to hear you complaining about anything.

571
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 1: That's pretty much the Signal ninety nine did a very

572
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 1: rather more long winded version of exactly what you said,

573
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: pointing out that they're a two hundred and twenty one

574
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: thousand registered voters in the city, with only sixty six

575
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 1: thousand of those showing up, less than thirty percent turnout.

576
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: So if you didn't vote, don't don't even complain. Don't

577
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,959
Speaker 1: even bother complaining. You lost your right to complain.

578
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 10: What is Jake? What did Jay Ratless say his famous

579
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 10: quote keep your stupid mouth shut right much?

580
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 15: So?

581
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, to the people that did vote, Uh, it's it.

582
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 10: You know what goes to what motivates excuse me, what

583
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 10: motivated you that? What motivated you to vote for? Who

584
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 10: you voted for and what you voted for? And uh,

585
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 10: I kind of first of all, thank you, Steve first

586
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 10: caller there, appreciate it. Yeah, more people need to get

587
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 10: the message out, but to uh, to kind of piggyback

588
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 10: on what John was saying. And I understand his frustration.

589
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 7: I get it.

590
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 10: And he talked about a formula and the way the

591
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 10: way it sounds to me, it looks to me like

592
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 10: what the way the Democrats are going is. They're all

593
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 10: about excusing people's behavior as long as they know those

594
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 10: people are going to vote for them. Let's so the

595
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 10: whole the whole illegal immigrant thing, sanctuary city thing. Now,

596
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 10: maybe in in in reality, those actual illegal immigrants did

597
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 10: not vote at all, and let's just let's just say

598
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 10: that didn't happen. I don't know, but let's just say

599
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 10: it didn't happen. They didn't get a chance to vote.

600
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 10: The attitude is still out there. We are excusing illegal behavior.

601
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:00,040
Speaker 11: We we do.

602
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 10: You want people to know that you can come here

603
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 10: and be safe from the consequences of your illegal behavior.

604
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 10: That is part of the Democrat formula that appeals to people.

605
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 10: That's what was the word I brought up the other day.

606
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 10: It was like, it's very seductive language that the Democrats use.

607
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 10: Here's another one. People that have excuses for other people's

608
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 10: behavior because of the color of their skin. Oh well,

609
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 10: you come at it from a Eurocentric point of view. Well,

610
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 10: there's an Afro centric point of view. It doesn't matter

611
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 10: Afro euro whatever. It's common sense, it's law and order.

612
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 10: If you go out in society and you break the law,

613
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 10: you should be held accountable for your actions. And we

614
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 10: have a Democrat Party who does not want to do

615
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 10: that because they want people to feel that you do

616
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 10: whatever they want. Oh, just come vote for us, Just

617
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 10: keep voting for us, keep us in power. We'll keep

618
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 10: letting you get away with what you do. That is

619
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 10: the biggest part of the formula that I think John,

620
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 10: and he may not have been thinking exactactly that, but

621
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 10: when I hear that, that's what I think. And that's

622
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 10: the seductive part of the Democrat Party.

623
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 5: And that's what's.

624
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 10: Bringing this township, city, county, state, and country down. Is

625
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 10: that formula.

626
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: Well, that formula also includes a very very sizable chunk

627
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: of class warfare built into it. You know, evil rich

628
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 1: people and their evil and they're wrong, and you know,

629
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: but for a systemic a society that's systemically broken, irretrievably broken,

630
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: born of original sin, needs to be brought down. If

631
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 1: it weren't for our system of government, we would have

632
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: more and those evil rich people wouldn't be as successful

633
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: as they are or something. Right, there's always a reason why. Yeah,

634
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 1: I'm not rich because somebody else prevented me from success.

635
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 1: That's that feeding that mentality.

636
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 10: Exactly, and that's part of that seductive language. Yeah, the

637
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 10: Democrats is I have choices that I've made in my

638
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 10: life that have either helped me get to where I

639
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 10: am or kept me from getting further. You can look

640
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,479
Speaker 10: back on my decisions now, other people have had effect

641
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 10: on our life. Sure, but it doesn't mean I'm going

642
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 10: to intentionally destroy this country just to get back at them.

643
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 10: How stupid is that. That's that's cutting your nose off

644
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 10: despite your face. But they don't, they don't. They don't

645
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 10: say that. They say, oh, let's let's let's tax the

646
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 10: rich even more. All you're doing is hurting yourself. It's

647
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 10: like the whole union thing. Let's let's get these people

648
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 10: who own these businesses. All you're doing is hurting yourself.

649
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 10: If you're voting Democrat just because you have a problem

650
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 10: with the people that own the business, well, if you've

651
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 10: got a problem with them, to quit it. Don't work

652
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 10: for them. No, you don't want to quit because you

653
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 10: need the job.

654
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 7: What job?

655
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 10: The job that these people have for you. It's it

656
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 10: makes no sense, it's ridiculous, stupid, but it is seductive.

657
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 10: So we got to keep telling people this is these

658
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 10: are lies. They're the crack they're trying to feed us.

659
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 10: Is doing nothing but bring us down, make matters worse.

660
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 14: There.

661
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 10: Like you said, there is no solutions in there. It's

662
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 10: just more of the same crap. Don't vote Democrat. Have

663
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 10: a great day, Brian.

664
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: Hopefully that message will come through before next fall. By

665
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: forty eight, if you have Karrooseite talk station and get

666
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: a couple of callers online if you do, if you

667
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 1: have Karoseee talk station, Happy Wednesday. Yeah, now, struggling with

668
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 1: that one this morning and inviting all the help I

669
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 1: can get this morning to sort of sort through the

670
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: aftermath of what was I believe a pretty bad day

671
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 1: for the Republicans yesterday. Who's next, Joe Strekker? Is that Brian?

672
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: Thanks for calling this morning. Welcome to the show.

673
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 14: Hey, good morning, Brian.

674
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 7: How are you.

675
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 1: I've been better?

676
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 5: Obviously?

677
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 11: Yeah, I listen every morning. I'm working in town and

678
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 11: I'm always glad. I live in Claremont County.

679
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I understand that all day long. Probably go

680
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,760
Speaker 1: home this morning. My wife will again say we should

681
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,439
Speaker 1: get the hell out of Hamilton County. She has said

682
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: that previously.

683
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 11: Yes, sir, Yeah, I voted a little after four o'clock

684
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 11: yesterday and Peer Township and what there's four districts where

685
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 11: I vote. At one hundred and fifty three people that

686
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 11: voted at four o'clock in the afternoon.

687
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 7: Wow on my district. Yeah.

688
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 5: And then what I looked at some results this.

689
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 11: Morning a police levy it passed luckily. Pierce Township police departments.

690
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 11: Thank you, you guys do a great job. What it

691
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,800
Speaker 11: was like, sixteen hundred votes total, sixteen hundred people in

692
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 11: Pierce Township showed Upeah.

693
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,439
Speaker 16: Yeah, it's it's sad.

694
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:30,879
Speaker 2: That is sad.

695
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is a reflection of the

696
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: Milford voters. There was one thing that was reported from Milford,

697
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 1: Milford charter revisions, and I don't know what it was.

698
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 1: It's an even split fifty yes, fifty no three votes each, Okay.

699
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 17: Good, all right.

700
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 1: I don't know how you even interpret that one, Brian.

701
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: But maybe that was the only thing on, so six

702
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: people from Milford decided to get up and go vote.

703
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 11: Oh, Brian, I think trying to understand the Democrats. The

704
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 11: problem is is we continue to try and use common

705
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 11: sense and logic and you can't do that.

706
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:13,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And I was as people try to, you know,

707
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 1: analyze the city election, because again, all the incumbents got

708
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: re elected, the same across the board. But it was

709
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: this basically the same voter turnout a few more points

710
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 1: than expected. They expected twenty five twenty nine percent actually voted.

711
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,439
Speaker 1: But if you look at the prior elections, that's pretty

712
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: much what happens every single time. You know, it's the

713
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: same percent of people show up and you end up

714
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: with the same people on council or the same you know,

715
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: Democrat candidates winning. So has there really been some something

716
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: profound that changed. No, it looks like status quo. So

717
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: to the caller that thought that this is some sort

718
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 1: of you know, illegal immigrants, sanctuary city reality that has unfolded, O,

719
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: I don't know that you can point to anything other

720
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: than if you just let things go, the same people

721
00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 1: show up and they vote the same way. There isn't

722
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 1: one defining issue. You know, crime didn't drive people to

723
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 1: the polls. It wasn't the roads that drove people to

724
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 1: the polls. It was just some people vote and some

725
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 1: people don't. And when you have a city that's as

726
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 1: blue as Cincinnati looks like the Democrat voters are more

727
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: motivated to get off their butts and go cast and vote.

728
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: I can't come away with anything beyond that. Maybe I

729
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know. That's why I'm asking folks

730
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,760
Speaker 1: to call in like you, Brian. I appreciated, Dave and CJ.

749
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,839
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, you'll be next. Welcome in the morning show.

750
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 15: Dave, Hey, Good morning, Brian. Here here's my opinion on

751
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 15: what's going on. I think the Democrats have been screaming

752
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:30,799
Speaker 15: and crying for the past year now about how it's

753
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 15: the end of the world, we're going to lose our democracy.

754
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 9: And you got to get out and vote.

755
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 4: That makes up for that four extra.

756
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,319
Speaker 9: Four percent over what they thought was the twenty five

757
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 9: to twenty nine percent that showed up. It was all

758
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 9: them people who think the end of the world. If

759
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 9: Oh my opinion is if the Republicans could find a way.

760
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 9: But the only problem is I don't know how any solutions,

761
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 9: how how to get it through to people.

762
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 13: Man.

763
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 9: The importance that you've got to get out there and

764
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,360
Speaker 9: vote and we'll have their most people that vote Republican

765
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 9: are more worried about whether Flaka is going to get

766
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,359
Speaker 9: it together, whether long enough to get us.

767
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 2: Into the playoffs.

768
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 1: That's true.

769
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 15: They don't pay attention.

770
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 7: I mean no.

771
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 15: I called a couple of acquaintances of mine. They had

772
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,719
Speaker 15: no clue there was an election going on that see that.

773
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 1: That's part of the problem right there, because because Smithman,

774
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 1: you know, lost, but he pointed out when he's going

775
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,359
Speaker 1: door to order, peoplen't even know there was an election

776
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 1: coming up in the residents of the city. In so

777
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,879
Speaker 1: far as that end of democracy messaging, I don't think

778
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 1: that's what drove the additional four percent of the residents

779
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: of the city to show up to the polls. I

780
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 1: think that additional four point gain in turnout may have

781
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: been the people that actually showed up and voted for

782
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman, since he did get twenty two percent of

783
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: the mayoral vote. Maybe it was some of the unhappy

784
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,880
Speaker 1: Hyde Park or Bond Hill residents or whatever, so you

785
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,720
Speaker 1: can maybe give some of that credit to Corey Bowman.

786
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 5: So but that could be.

787
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 9: But I'm just thinking it's I was thinking, I don't know.

788
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 9: I don't know the solution of how we can get

789
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 9: and it's up to the republic Party. I mean, they

790
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 9: really got to get us together to where we can

791
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 9: They've got to get on the ball.

792
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,320
Speaker 1: I mean it's I can't do something, I guess, But

793
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: real quick, on that end democracy message to the extent

794
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 1: that is working, that threat that Donald Trump or the

795
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: Republicans suggest is moving toward an end of democracy or

796
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: of the republic that we have whatever. If that messaging

797
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 1: actually is working, therein is a reflection of the just

798
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: the outrageous stupidity of people that that argument, that statement

799
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 1: is dumb, It makes no sense. There's no objective thing

800
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,320
Speaker 1: you can point to that says, oh my god, the

801
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: Republicans are against democracy or against representative government. Here's what

802
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: they did. And look, this is the collapse. Now Donald

803
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: Trump has gone afield and done some you know, hyper

804
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 1: executive things, or at least push the boundaries of the

805
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 1: extent of the executive branch. But I don't think it

806
00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:00,439
Speaker 1: represents a threat to democracy. But what does I would

807
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,279
Speaker 1: say that socialism is the threat to democracy. Zorhan Mandami

808
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 1: winning in New York with rent control and control this

809
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 1: and control that. If they're controlling you, they represent the

810
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 1: threat to democracy. The Dems run around and screaming point

811
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: figures at Republicans for doing all the things that they

812
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:23,240
Speaker 1: are doing right in front of you. So if that works,

813
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 1: that's just them working off the collective stupidity electorate.

814
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 11: Right.

815
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 1: It's like when they run around and call people fascists.

816
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: If look at the definition of fascism, it's like, how

817
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 1: do they get away with it? Well, maybe people.

818
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 2: Are just dumb.

819
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: Maybe people just don't know what the definition is. So

820
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 1: that's the challenge right there, waking people up and getting

821
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: them to wake up and listen and find out for

822
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,959
Speaker 1: themselves and discover and realize who's lying to them, who's

823
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 1: peddling well nonsense. But if you're not paying attention, that

824
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: meme message is all you're going to get. And they

825
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 1: are a great about screaming it over and over again.

826
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:04,720
Speaker 1: Maybe they're the ones that woke up to the reality

827
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 1: that people are so collectively done politically that if they

828
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 1: just say the same thing over and over again, as

829
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: crazy as it may be, and it's factually inaccurate and

830
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,440
Speaker 1: definitionally inaccurate as it may be, they know that message

831
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 1: is still going to get through because people aren't looking

832
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 1: behind the sound bite. Evil Orange Mellod.

833
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 9: They also got their cohorts with the mainstream the.

834
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have to observe. I think the mainstream media's

835
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,680
Speaker 1: influence is waning a lot, so less influence there, but

836
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 1: certainly a unified message, and I don't know necessarily the

837
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 1: Republicans have a unified message, not one that you can

838
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 1: roll up into a SoundBite. What they're doing, though, makes

839
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,760
Speaker 1: sense when you walk through it. It's like the government shutdown.

840
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,320
Speaker 1: I mean, the idea that we are struggling over who's

841
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:55,399
Speaker 1: to blame for this is just another illustration of someone

842
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 1: not paying attention. I know who's to blame. It's the Democrats.

843
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 1: They're the one that put the X inspiration date for

844
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:02,560
Speaker 1: these tax credits in there. They're the ones that want

845
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 1: to make Obamacare look like it's actually working by well

846
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 1: off roading premiums to the American taxpayer generally, to make

847
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:12,399
Speaker 1: it look like this is free healthcare. It's not. It's

848
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:16,879
Speaker 1: the farthest thing from it. But you know, they set

849
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 1: us up for this position. They're the ones that put

850
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 1: the expiration date in there, and the Republicans are sticking

851
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 1: to it. This is their own work, and yet somehow

852
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 1: magically they can so flip that around and end up

853
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 1: blaming Republicans for it, and some people buy into that

854
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: that's collective stupidity. I don't know how else to sum

855
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,359
Speaker 1: it up as poorly as I just sum that up.

856
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 1: Appreciate the call, Dame, Thanks man, CJ. Thank you so

857
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,080
Speaker 1: much for holding Matt your next. CJ, welcome to the program.

858
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:48,800
Speaker 18: Good morning, And it is always somber for the party

859
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:52,720
Speaker 18: in power. The first Tuesday the year after the presidential election.

860
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:57,920
Speaker 18: And you know, I remember McDonald and Virginia the year

861
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 18: after Obama won away. He wins by I think fifteen

862
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 18: points in Virginia. It's a part of the political process.

863
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 18: The problem I have with yesterday is this, people don't,

864
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,640
Speaker 18: as you were saying, they don't only not pay attention

865
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,480
Speaker 18: to if there's an election or not, they're not even

866
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 18: paying attention to who's running. How does a guy who

867
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 18: threatens to kill somebody, then threatens to kill children, is

868
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 18: caught driving one hundred and seventeen miles per hour on

869
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 18: the freeway which could kill people, and does a ton

870
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 18: of other things in text messages that is completely inappropriate,

871
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 18: How does he win?

872
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,880
Speaker 14: That scares me far more than.

873
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 18: People forgetting that it's election day, because how can you

874
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 18: vote for that? Because that is complete irrationality. Mom, Donnie

875
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,759
Speaker 18: winning in New York, I get it, but that is

876
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:55,759
Speaker 18: also complete irrationality. And people have to realize you have

877
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 18: to work three hundred and sixty five days a year,

878
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:02,360
Speaker 18: every day toolitically, or you're going to have what happens

879
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:05,280
Speaker 18: last night and Donald Trump not being on the ballot

880
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 18: in people don't show up because Donald Trump's not there.

881
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:10,640
Speaker 18: That is not an excuse because if you use that

882
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 18: as an excuse, not the biggest Trump fan, you just

883
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 18: made Donald Trump a laye duck and he has no

884
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 18: power left because nobody can trust his power to get people.

885
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:22,359
Speaker 7: Out to vote.

886
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:26,800
Speaker 1: Well, there's an element of that, but you know, just

887
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,840
Speaker 1: a moment in time in our lifetimes, a moment in

888
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 1: time politically, Donald Trump's not going to be around anymore.

889
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,960
Speaker 1: I just kind of wonder where the party is going

890
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 1: to go, but where both parties are going to go?

891
00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 1: You know, the evil Orange Man disappears from the political landscape.

892
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: What are the Democrats left with at this moment in

893
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: time right now? They don't seem to really have anything.

894
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 1: That's my perception. But I keep going back to these

895
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:54,040
Speaker 1: outcomes and keep going back to this messaging, messaging actually working.

896
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 1: And the only conclusion I can reach is that people

897
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,359
Speaker 1: just don't pay attention. They're not looking at like all

898
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 1: the things you pointed out about that Jake, the fact

899
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: that he did say all those things. Obviously it didn't

900
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: register either. People don't care that the man expressed violence

901
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 1: toward other people, including children. They think it's aoka because

902
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 1: he's their guy, So we're willing to forgive him for

903
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,640
Speaker 1: his sins because he's our guy, and it's okay if

904
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: our guys are sinful, we can make fun of the

905
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,399
Speaker 1: other team if they do something wrong. That's the way

906
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 1: my perception of Chicago politics always was. They knew they

907
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 1: were corrupt, but they embraced the corruption because it was

908
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 1: Democrats corruption and we control the city and you're damn right,

909
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: we're corrupt, but we're all enjoying the largest of our

910
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 1: own corruption. So maybe there's an element of that in there.

911
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: I just I go back to the fact that not

912
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 1: enough people pay attention to the realities of politics. Those

913
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,880
Speaker 1: who do not study the mistakes of the past are

914
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,479
Speaker 1: destined to repeat them. New York City, Welcome to the fun.

915
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 1: Just bring the flag out, last person out because I

916
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 1: can't see this going well. And someone asked me this morning,

917
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:55,319
Speaker 1: if you think P and G or fifth third, we'll

918
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 1: pull out of the city of Cincinnati, And you know, logically, reasonably,

919
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 1: like some of the other businesses have left major metropolitan

920
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,879
Speaker 1: areas because of the poor the way that they were run,

921
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 1: or the deteriorating infrastructure or the crime problems, they pull out.

922
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 1: They leave. You all have seen illustrations of this across

923
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 1: this great land from COVID forward. But no, I don't

924
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 1: think they will simply because I do believe they are

925
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 1: part of the Democrat leftist mentality team. It's their corruption

926
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 1: and they're going to enjoy it to their benefit. That's

927
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,200
Speaker 1: my thought, Matt. Your next few to mind, hold in

928
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 1: just a moment. It's six point fifteen, and I do

929
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 1: get to mention Galaxy Concrete Coatings, because I think this

930
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,880
Speaker 1: is an absolutely fantastic product, so much so that, of

931
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,279
Speaker 1: course you may have heard me mention we've in front

932
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:42,360
Speaker 1: number five one, three, seven, four nine to fifty five hundred,

933
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,319
Speaker 1: eight hundred eight two three talk contact fifty one eighty

934
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,399
Speaker 1: T and T phone talker. Election results not much good

935
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 1: news if you can find any police, feel free to

936
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 1: give me a call, and I really appreciate the calls

937
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:53,320
Speaker 1: this morning. I'm struggling, like most people to try to

938
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 1: figure out what in the hell's going on in this world.

939
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: Larry and Jeff hang on because Matt is next. Matt.

940
00:47:58,160 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 1: Thanks for holding over the break and welcome to the show, sir.

941
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 19: Good morning, Bryan. Uh, yes, the uh they can you

942
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:09,320
Speaker 19: hear me?

943
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 1: Uh, go ahead and make your point, Matt.

944
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,880
Speaker 19: The mayor the mayorial race was a blowout.

945
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 1: Yes, it was.

946
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 20: What happens if that has happened across the country, you know,

947
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 20: the any other elections that the Democrats have a pretty

948
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 20: good weapon already needs against uh, the shutdown, and and

949
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:35,320
Speaker 20: it's going to put a lot of pressure on Trump

950
00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:39,000
Speaker 20: I believe to uh get most of what, if not all,

951
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:40,120
Speaker 20: of what they're demanding.

952
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,239
Speaker 19: I'm afraid. I'm afraid that the believe he is just

953
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:44,320
Speaker 19: beginning to start.

954
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:48,400
Speaker 1: Okay, and see that makes sense. The Democrats in Congress

955
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: are in you know, the Senate Democrats, keeping the government shutdown,

956
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:54,319
Speaker 1: working it to their benefit, bringing about hardship and pain

957
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,319
Speaker 1: for a lot of people. And since people aren't really

958
00:48:57,440 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 1: kind of aware of how the setup showed up in

959
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 1: in terms of leading us to this shutdown. All the

960
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 1: blame lands in the lapse of the Democrats. The pain

961
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:06,919
Speaker 1: that they bring about by keeping the government shut down

962
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,080
Speaker 1: does resonate. And so if you're not aware that the

963
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,880
Speaker 1: Democrats deserve all the blame for the pain and misery

964
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 1: that's been brought about. Look, their traffic's going to get

965
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,080
Speaker 1: shut down, then you might want to cast a vote

966
00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 1: for a Democrat, right. I mean that maybe gives Schumer

967
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,040
Speaker 1: some credit for doing what we all thought was lunacy

968
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 1: in keeping the government shut down. Maybe that worked for

969
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 1: maybe in the political analysis of yesterday's vote, they'll point

970
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 1: to that and say, you know what, you got to

971
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:33,280
Speaker 1: give the Democrats prob for bringing around the pain because

972
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 1: no one paid attention that they were to blame for it,

973
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:40,040
Speaker 1: but it worked to their advantage in the ballot box possibility. Absolutely.

974
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,239
Speaker 1: Who's next? Joe Struker, Larry, Jeff hang On, Larry, Welcome

975
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,799
Speaker 1: to the show. Thanks for calling this morning, Thanks for.

976
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 2: Having me, Brian.

977
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 16: As always, your show was very informative and I just

978
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:54,879
Speaker 16: love the callers that you get.

979
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. I love the callers too, man,

980
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 1: especially in a daylight today when I just feel like

981
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 1: I am out of my element.

982
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 7: Yeah.

983
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,920
Speaker 16: Well, somebody made the comment earlier that you'll notice that

984
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,279
Speaker 16: the conservative voters won't go out and burn cars and

985
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 16: disrupt traffic and so forth, and we won't. We'll learn

986
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,919
Speaker 16: from this and one of the things that I think

987
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 16: Republican voters need to learn from these off year elections.

988
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:25,880
Speaker 16: When voter turnout is so low, here's your opportunity you

989
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:30,919
Speaker 16: really drive to change. I know, you know, and it's unbelievable.

990
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,440
Speaker 16: I mean, what was it, twenty five percent turnout.

991
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 1: In the city, roughly twenty nine percent. I think Hamilton

992
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,040
Speaker 1: County was probably twenty five to twenty roughly there, but

993
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 1: in other counties maybe less. I think my friend from

994
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,919
Speaker 1: Claremont County said only twenty three percent of the folks

995
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 1: showed up to vote.

996
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,920
Speaker 16: Yeah, so, you know, I don't really believe that fifty

997
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,920
Speaker 16: percent of the voters in Cincinnati are are Republican. They

998
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:02,520
Speaker 16: obviously aren't. But if every republic Can voter had turned out, yeah,

999
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 16: it would have been enough.

1000
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:07,239
Speaker 1: This way, the difference, I agree, it's that's that is

1001
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:11,319
Speaker 1: almost like your point is exactly was rather the point

1002
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 1: of any optimism I had for the election yesterday that

1003
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 1: we all knew from the history that only twenty five

1004
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:19,800
Speaker 1: percent roughly we were going to show up, and that

1005
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,560
Speaker 1: that provided an opportunity for those who were pissed off

1006
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,240
Speaker 1: about the direction of the city to make it stand

1007
00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:28,320
Speaker 1: the come on in the waters, fine, and your vote's

1008
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 1: going to mean so much more. That's the only source

1009
00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,480
Speaker 1: of my optimism yesterday. And of course that bubble got

1010
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,879
Speaker 1: burst when I woke up this morning, Larry. They didn't

1011
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:35,239
Speaker 1: show up.

1012
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:40,399
Speaker 16: And it's monogamous to to primary elections. You know, most

1013
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,160
Speaker 16: folks don't turn out for primary elections, and that's where

1014
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:46,080
Speaker 16: you really have the most leverage to really make your vote.

1015
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:48,320
Speaker 2: It truly is I have the most impact.

1016
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:55,240
Speaker 16: So I just encouraged Republicans instead of you know, driving

1017
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 16: in our beers and suffering from the from the depression. Here,

1018
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,279
Speaker 16: it's like there was a very powerful lesson here, and

1019
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,359
Speaker 16: if you just get out and get up and take

1020
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 16: advantage of your constitutional rights here and vote when you can,

1021
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:11,439
Speaker 16: it would have been hit a different outcome, it would

1022
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,520
Speaker 16: have and I don't doubt the same would have been

1023
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:18,839
Speaker 16: true in New Jersey, Virginia, probably not New York City.

1024
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:19,840
Speaker 4: I don't know.

1025
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,880
Speaker 16: If there's enough conservative voters anywhere in New York city'd

1026
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 16: ever make a difference.

1027
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 1: But they did have in New York, they did have

1028
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 1: a record turnout, So that's something to beld it. Oh yeah, yeah,

1029
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,760
Speaker 1: a couple of million or more. It's been It hasn't

1030
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:34,359
Speaker 1: had that much of a turnout, I think, even since

1031
00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:35,840
Speaker 1: the last presidential election.

1032
00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,920
Speaker 16: So well, they will get what they deserve.

1033
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 1: We won't we all and you get what we deserve

1034
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,800
Speaker 1: if you don't vote right, Larry, So your failure to

1035
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,959
Speaker 1: vote results in you getting the same old, same old, Larry.

1036
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,800
Speaker 1: God bless you, sir for calling in this morning. Have

Speaker 1: I made a comment Sporty Jeff about my wife I

1062
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 1: think at one prior time, and they can't remember, when

1063
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,040
Speaker 1: said we need to get the hell out of Hamilton County,

1064
00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:27,920
Speaker 1: and I had commented along those lines. I said, I'm

1065
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 1: going to go home this morning, and my wife's gonna

1066
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:31,560
Speaker 1: say we need to sell our house and get out

1067
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:33,680
Speaker 1: of Hamilton County. She heard me say that, and she

1068
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:36,759
Speaker 1: mentioned Butler County. Maybe she'll have to add the Commonwealth

1069
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:41,400
Speaker 1: onto her list of potential destination lands. Appreciate your support

1070
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,719

Speaker 1: this morning, Corey.

1072
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:47,440
Speaker 22: Good morning.

1073
00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:49,760
Speaker 6: Brian no I said this before.

1074
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 8: But the average Democrat voter is this plan out stupid.

1075
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 8: They don't pay attention. They have no idea what's going

1076
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:58,719
Speaker 8: on on. Thing they know is what's going on with

1077
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:01,839
Speaker 8: the Kardashian or something like that. That's the only thing

1078
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 8: they care about. They don't most of them don't work.

1079
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:06,920
Speaker 17: They live off the government.

1080
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:10,719
Speaker 8: And when the Republicans come in and say, you know,

1081
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 8: you got a man up, pull yourself up by your bootstraps,

1082
00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:14,400
Speaker 8: they don't want to do that.

1083
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:15,560
Speaker 7: They're lazy.

1084
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:19,560
Speaker 8: They want to keep that government assistance going. And the

1085
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:23,080
Speaker 8: uh someone said earlier about the media being part of

1086
00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:26,360
Speaker 8: the problem too, They absolutely are, because that that that

1087
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:29,360
Speaker 8: meme out there at front and that's the only thing

1088
00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:32,720
Speaker 8: these people see and that's all they believe. They believe

1089
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:36,880
Speaker 8: it up and down, just like uh, the Trump and Charlotte,

1090
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:39,239
Speaker 8: you know, all all good people on both sides state

1091
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:42,320
Speaker 8: it's been proven it's false, but still the majority of

1092
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:45,680
Speaker 8: them believe it. And uh, a lot of it is

1093
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,560
Speaker 8: Republicans wok too, because sometimes they don't bring a lot

1094
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,320
Speaker 8: to the table. We have a lot of rhinos, especially

1095
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:55,400
Speaker 8: in Ohio, and I want to reinforce what we've been

1096
00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 8: saying for a while. Don't vote for Democrats and don't

1097
00:55:58,200 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 8: vote for rhinos.

1098
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 1: Appreciate it. And there's a lot of a lot of

1099
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:03,279
Speaker 1: accuracy and what you have to say there. And you're

1100
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:05,600
Speaker 1: not the first person to chime in on the failure

1101
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 1: of the education system. And it's a well approximate connection

1102
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:12,279
Speaker 1: with the repub Democrats doing really well. Think about that,

1103
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:14,880
Speaker 1: because you know what scares the hell out of me.

1104
00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:16,919
Speaker 1: You know, prison always scares the hell to me, because

1105
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 1: you know what, you have, no freedoms, no liberties, period

1106
00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:20,719
Speaker 1: and a story you were depend upon every single human

1107
00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 1: being that runs the prison to feed you and care

1108
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 1: for you and maybe keep you protected or not, as

1109
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:30,720
Speaker 1: the case may be. If you're dependent on some government program,

1110
00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:35,239
Speaker 1: you have to vote to continue it. I mean, what

1111
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,520
Speaker 1: would drive you to the polls? I mean, if you're

1112
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:42,279
Speaker 1: if the idea of eating depends on your vote, I

1113
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:43,880
Speaker 1: think that might get you off and send you to

1114
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: the polls that day. If government doesn't impact you and

1115
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:48,920
Speaker 1: you have no connection with it. It does really truly

1116
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:51,160
Speaker 1: impact you, in spite of what you believe. But that

1117
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 1: vote really isn't going to change your future necessarily, not

1118
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,880
Speaker 1: in the way taking away food or clothing or shelter

1119
00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:02,200
Speaker 1: from you would impact. But if you had that profound

1120
00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:05,560
Speaker 1: connection with the vote, which I believe every single person

1121
00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 1: should have that kind of connection with it, then you

1122
00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:13,759
Speaker 1: show up and vote. Some people's lives sadly depend upon

1123
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 1: the existence of a big, fat, bloated government, and that's

1124
00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:19,120
Speaker 1: the problem that's led us to a thirty eight trillion

1125
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:24,320
Speaker 1: dollar hole in the ground on a national level. Anyhow,

1126
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:26,840
Speaker 1: we got time for one more in this segment. Joe Strecker,

1127
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:32,479
Speaker 1: Is that Hank, Hank, Welcome to the show. I'm sorry

1128
00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:35,160
Speaker 1: I got confused. Several callers are online. Hank, You're next, welcome,

1129
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:35,800
Speaker 1: Thanks for calling.

1130
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:40,840
Speaker 23: Well, greetings, fellow carbon based life forms. I think I

1131
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,120
Speaker 23: have a little bit of a bright spot in all

1132
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:47,920
Speaker 23: the darkness here here up in NCCH. We elected Mary

1133
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:52,000
Speaker 23: Joe Zorb and Susie Weeth's Witlets back. I'm not sure

1134
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,880
Speaker 23: how to pronounce that. So we got a couple of

1135
00:57:54,920 --> 00:58:00,080
Speaker 23: Republicans in the office here in Hamilton County anyway. But

1136
00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:02,680
Speaker 23: what I wanted to say is I wanted to thank

1137
00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:10,480
Speaker 23: half tab Pureval in the Cincinnati City Council for justifying

1138
00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 23: my decision thirty five years ago to not want to

1139
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:18,520
Speaker 23: live in the city of Cincinnati. And I also like

1140
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 23: to take the task mister John that called in the

1141
00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:30,240
Speaker 23: sixth the five o'clock hour. He was talking about illegal immigrats. Yeah,

1142
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 23: and keep in mind, thirty five years ago, I saw

1143
00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:36,160
Speaker 23: this stuff coming and didn't want any part of it.

1144
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 23: And basically I blame a lot of it on the education,

1145
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 23: the teachers' unions all that. I mean, our kids have

1146
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:46,480
Speaker 23: been't get well, not even kids now, but people have

1147
00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:49,760
Speaker 23: been getting brainwashed for fifty years or better. I mean

1148
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:52,160
Speaker 23: it was even starting when I was a kid in school,

1149
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:56,720
Speaker 23: and that's going back plus fifty years. So at least

1150
00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,880
Speaker 23: you got a little bit of a bright spot. I

1151
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 23: want to go maybe put out my forty eight star

1152
00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:05,960
Speaker 23: flag today because I'm kicking New York and California out

1153
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:10,800
Speaker 23: of the Union. And I'll probably see it listener lunch

1154
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:12,800
Speaker 23: because that's pretty close to my neighborhood.

1155
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 1: Great, I'll look forward to it, Hank you and I'll

1156
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:17,840
Speaker 1: sit and enjoy a beer together or something. So I

1157
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 1: hope we get a good turnout today in spite of

1158
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:23,520
Speaker 1: the yesterday's outcome. It's fun. I mean, you want to

1159
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 1: try to put a better put a smile on your face.

1160
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 1: You want something positive in your world. Show up today

1161
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:30,439
Speaker 1: at the at the Brentwood brew House and for listener lunch.

1162
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:34,200
Speaker 1: So anyhow, High Green Breweries, Brentwood location for lunch. Thanks

1163
00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:36,840
Speaker 1: for the call of my fe Oh yeah, admit to

1164
00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,600
Speaker 1: reeling from the aftermath of the election and in certainly

1165
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:44,520
Speaker 1: inviting your thoughts and opinions on the analysis post mortem,

1166
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 1: if I need to be so bold, Drew Pappas, hold on,

1167
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,640
Speaker 1: I'm very anxious to hear from you, considering how disappointed

1168
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:51,280
Speaker 1: I was and what's going on with Anderson Township. But

1169
00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 1: in the meantime, excuse me New Hampshire, Gary, You're first

1170
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 1: in line. Thanks for calling back, and good to hear

1171
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:56,320
Speaker 1: from me today, sir.

1172
00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 4: It's good to hear from you, Brian. Fortunately, it's a

1173
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:06,160
Speaker 4: sad day for Cincinnati. I think this is a combination.

1174
01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:10,240
Speaker 4: I'm going to just repeat what everybody else said education system,

1175
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:12,200
Speaker 4: but I'm going to throw another twist in on this.

1176
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:15,680
Speaker 4: I think it's also the pressure of the family because

1177
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:20,360
Speaker 4: a lot of spiritual Christian values. I'm not saying you

1178
01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:23,360
Speaker 4: have to be a Christian, but those Christian values aren't

1179
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 4: valued anymore, and you're watching people take on to a

1180
01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:33,560
Speaker 4: new value system. And this new value system has what

1181
01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 4: appeals to be from the socialist Communist Party because it's

1182
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:41,880
Speaker 4: almost a secularism because if you don't believe in a

1183
01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 4: higher power of God, then you're going to believe into

1184
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 4: the power of the state. And it's a natural manifest

1185
01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:55,800
Speaker 4: station that you would want a strong, powerful state. And

1186
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:59,840
Speaker 4: this is totally contrary to our founding father's belief which

1187
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:06,240
Speaker 4: a lot of us older people were brought up. But yes,

1188
01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 4: this is an absolute disaster and it's going to be

1189
01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 4: catastrophic for our children because this system never works. It

1190
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:20,400
Speaker 4: always fails, but they don't know that and they're not

1191
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 4: being taught that. So if we remain as a country,

1192
01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:28,120
Speaker 4: and I'm no, I'm not talking in our lifetime, but

1193
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:31,520
Speaker 4: in our children's time, all this will catch up to

1194
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:35,400
Speaker 4: us that the barbarians will be at the We'll be

1195
01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:40,200
Speaker 4: there in an attack won't take much, especially with modern

1196
01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:45,600
Speaker 4: new warfare. We're talking drones, we're talking cyber attack, we're

1197
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:49,560
Speaker 4: talking electrical grid failures. Of course, we're even talking we're

1198
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:56,160
Speaker 4: even talking about China already meddling with small municipality water systems.

1199
01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 4: And I think if you add you know, the banking system,

1200
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:06,720
Speaker 4: all this can collapse relatively quickly, especially in the modern

1201
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:10,640
Speaker 4: age of warfare. And you know, I don't know if

1202
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,080
Speaker 4: we'll say it in our time, but you never know,

1203
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:13,640
Speaker 4: we could.

1204
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:17,160
Speaker 1: Well, certainly all of those things are realities. I mean,

1205
01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:19,440
Speaker 1: no one can deny that. And that's why we have,

1206
01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:22,120
Speaker 1: you know, people looking out for us in terms of cybersecurity.

1207
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 1: And like sadly the Chinese Communist Party has been able

1208
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:26,880
Speaker 1: to infiltrate a lot of systems, and it really is concerning.

1209
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:29,720
Speaker 1: That's certainly a challenge. And I think stepping back from

1210
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:33,080
Speaker 1: the lack of civic virtue values generally a belief in

1211
01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:37,080
Speaker 1: a higher power beyond the state, if the and I

1212
01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:39,160
Speaker 1: go back to my comments about the flag, I always

1213
01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:42,640
Speaker 1: looked with you know, pride. The flag was that symbol

1214
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:45,640
Speaker 1: of freedom that we have that nobody else has. Yeah,

1215
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:47,520
Speaker 1: you can be different politically than mean, we're all under

1216
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:50,000
Speaker 1: one flag. That should be unifying to us in the

1217
01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:53,920
Speaker 1: absence of something unifying, in the absence of something that

1218
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:57,760
Speaker 1: makes you want to support and defend your country. When

1219
01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:00,160
Speaker 1: one of these threats or a multitude of these threats it,

1220
01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:03,600
Speaker 1: you have to be ready and prepared to defend it. Question,

1221
01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:06,160
Speaker 1: are there enough people out there in the world that

1222
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 1: would be willing to defend the United States of America

1223
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:13,080
Speaker 1: as a concept? And there are fewer and fewer people

1224
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:15,840
Speaker 1: that are. I mean, there have been statistics and reports

1225
01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:18,640
Speaker 1: about like, for example, the European Union, would Germans put

1226
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:21,680
Speaker 1: a military uniform on if they were invaded by some

1227
01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:24,520
Speaker 1: foreign power? And like fifty percent were like, screw it,

1228
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,000
Speaker 1: it's not worth fighting over. You just roll over and

1229
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:32,880
Speaker 1: drop your pants. Basically, you have so little belief in

1230
01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:36,920
Speaker 1: your country's system of government. I mean that day frightens me.

1231
01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:39,720
Speaker 1: But more and more we're running towards this idea that

1232
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 1: America conceptually is not worth defending. That's what the left

1233
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:48,320
Speaker 1: is all about. Period. Someday you're gonna run out of

1234
01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:50,840
Speaker 1: other people's money. Though, Drew pappas your next please hold

1235
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:54,160
Speaker 1: because I want to hear from well, my favorite Anderson

1236
01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,520
Speaker 1: Township resident six forty six Right now that you five KC.

1237
01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:59,120
Speaker 1: De talk stations get in touch with Emory Federal Credit Union.

1238
01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:03,400
Speaker 1: It's no longer Emory though, if share facts now, that's right,

1239
01:04:03,560 --> 01:04:08,280
Speaker 1: nine the Talk station six fifty fifty five Kercity Talk Station.

1240
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:13,560
Speaker 1: You're right, Maureen, apathy is the enemy of democracy. Freedom

1241
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:16,640
Speaker 1: is not a spectator sport. Yeah, apathy, And we witnessed

1242
01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:19,880
Speaker 1: apathy yesterday with a very small slice of the eligible

1243
01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 1: voting population casting votes. And what in the wide wide

1244
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 1: world of sports is going on in Anderson Township where

1245
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:29,720
Speaker 1: Josh Girth and Lexie Lawston came in third and fourth

1246
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:32,320
Speaker 1: out of four. Maybe he can answer that. Andrew Pappis,

1247
01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:34,160
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Morning Show. Thanks for calling today, sir,

1248
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:36,200
Speaker 1: Hey Brian, good morning.

1249
01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:43,800
Speaker 24: I wish I could answer it like easily, but I

1250
01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:47,800
Speaker 24: will tell you that my opinion what's been going on

1251
01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:52,240
Speaker 24: out here and Anderson is we are a victim of

1252
01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 24: our own success.

1253
01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:54,640
Speaker 13: And what do I mean by that?

1254
01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 24: We have a lot of you know, Anderson has a

1255
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:01,840
Speaker 24: lot of new p people moving in and most of

1256
01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:04,400
Speaker 24: them are coming from the city. You know, once you

1257
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:08,400
Speaker 24: once your millennials or your younger people have a child

1258
01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:11,960
Speaker 24: or two, they start thinking about moving someplace maybe safer

1259
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 24: with better schools other than the city. And I witnessed

1260
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:19,120
Speaker 24: that at the polls. I witnessed it with the candidates

1261
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:21,480
Speaker 24: on the other side that we're running and.

1262
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:24,160
Speaker 13: You know, we have built a great community out here.

1263
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 24: And what happens is that Maureen is correct, there's a

1264
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:32,120
Speaker 24: malaise that takes place. You know, voting day we did fine,

1265
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:36,000
Speaker 24: we won voting day, we couldn't overcome the early voting

1266
01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 24: deficit that we found ourselves in. And you know, two

1267
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 24: really great trustees, Lexi and Josh fell short.

1268
01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 2: There was a lot of you know, to be fair, the.

1269
01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:52,800
Speaker 24: Other side muddied the waters with a lot of uh,

1270
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 24: just flat out lies and misinformation. And you know, I've

1271
01:05:56,480 --> 01:06:01,080
Speaker 24: I've been pondering myself, how do you respond to a lie?

1272
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:03,520
Speaker 24: You know, because if you repeat the lie, then you

1273
01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:08,040
Speaker 24: just propagate the misconception. So but if you ignore the lie,

1274
01:06:08,120 --> 01:06:12,000
Speaker 24: you let it stand. You know, we the trustee form

1275
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:15,160
Speaker 24: of government is a very by design, a very weak

1276
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:20,400
Speaker 24: and fairly powerless form of governments, the least intrusive. But

1277
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:25,240
Speaker 24: the left was able to the left candidates were able

1278
01:06:25,360 --> 01:06:29,360
Speaker 24: to spread that lie and then tie themselves. You know,

1279
01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:34,520
Speaker 24: maybe it's probably smartly they tied themselves to the misconception

1280
01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:38,920
Speaker 24: that a park levee that the current trustees were against

1281
01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:42,000
Speaker 24: the parks out here. You know, you put parks and

1282
01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:45,800
Speaker 24: schools on the ballot. Most times they obviously pass. People,

1283
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:48,600
Speaker 24: you know, vote with their heart sometimes and more than

1284
01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:51,000
Speaker 24: their heads and more than their pocketbooks, and say, yes,

1285
01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:56,000
Speaker 24: parks are good, schools are good, you know, at all always,

1286
01:06:56,160 --> 01:06:56,920
Speaker 24: So let's.

1287
01:06:56,960 --> 01:06:59,280
Speaker 13: Let's vote those levees in most times, you know, most

1288
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:04,280
Speaker 13: times those levee passed. Yeah, So that's what happened out here.

1289
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:05,960
Speaker 24: We have a lot of people that have I did

1290
01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,440
Speaker 24: point out to one of the candidates yesterday. We had

1291
01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:11,439
Speaker 24: a nice discourse, one of the Democrats running, and he said,

1292
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:14,840
Speaker 24: you know, I said, I'm going in to vote. I said, no, disrespect,

1293
01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:16,840
Speaker 24: I'm not going to vote for He says, well, that's okay.

1294
01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 24: I'll just I was going to protect your property values.

1295
01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:22,320
Speaker 24: And he said, and I didn't vote for you. I said, well,

1296
01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:25,520
Speaker 24: that's funny. By your own statement, you acknowledge that your

1297
01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:29,120
Speaker 24: property values are such because of the job we in

1298
01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:33,000
Speaker 24: part we did as a trustee establishing that. And he

1299
01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:36,120
Speaker 24: paused for a moment and he said, you could see

1300
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:38,560
Speaker 24: the light kind of flickered and it went on and

1301
01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:42,960
Speaker 24: he's like, oh yeah, by accident.

1302
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,080
Speaker 1: So take your victories where you can, Drew.

1303
01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:48,040
Speaker 13: Look, it is what it is.

1304
01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:49,800
Speaker 24: I mean, we have a lot of people that don't

1305
01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:53,360
Speaker 24: understand what made Anderson great. That the conservative leadership, the

1306
01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:55,160
Speaker 24: conservative government we've had out.

1307
01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:57,680
Speaker 13: Here, a lot of a lot of flat out just

1308
01:07:57,920 --> 01:07:58,680
Speaker 13: just lies that.

1309
01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:02,400
Speaker 24: Were said during the camp ain't about you know, uh

1310
01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:06,360
Speaker 24: spending and you know, TIFFs. They didn't understand what a

1311
01:08:06,440 --> 01:08:08,040
Speaker 24: tiff was where that money.

1312
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:11,360
Speaker 13: Could be spent. So, you know, they took a populist

1313
01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:14,120
Speaker 13: view and and and and ran with it.

1314
01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:16,559
Speaker 24: And sadly, I got to be honest with you, Marie,

1315
01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:18,840
Speaker 24: it's correct on a lot of this. You know, I

1316
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:21,160
Speaker 24: need to dig into the actual you know, the early

1317
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:24,000
Speaker 24: voting numbers were just such that they couldn't overcome it.

1318
01:08:24,120 --> 01:08:26,680
Speaker 13: And too many We've talked about you and I've talked

1319
01:08:26,680 --> 01:08:28,160
Speaker 13: about this so many times, too.

1320
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:31,360
Speaker 24: Many Republicans, you know, I've I've had several I've said,

1321
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 24: please vote early, please vote asite.

1322
01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:36,080
Speaker 13: Oh no, I like to vote on election day. That's

1323
01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:38,240
Speaker 13: That's what I hear over and over and over. And

1324
01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:39,519
Speaker 13: you know, what life happens.

1325
01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:44,360
Speaker 24: Things come up election day and you get busy and people,

1326
01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 24: as has been pointed out, I can't tell you. I

1327
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:49,679
Speaker 24: had many people, Oh is there an election Tuesday?

1328
01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:51,840
Speaker 13: What are we voting on? I'm like, are you kidding?

1329
01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:53,080
Speaker 14: I know, are you serious?

1330
01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:58,000
Speaker 24: So all those things combined with the natural effect of

1331
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:02,200
Speaker 24: postal you know, this this this term of election after presidentials,

1332
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:06,120
Speaker 24: usually turnouts usually lower, the party in power usually loses.

1333
01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:11,320
Speaker 24: But I am, yeah, I'm I'm genuinely scratching my head.

1334
01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:13,840
Speaker 24: And I think that to be fair and not to

1335
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,840
Speaker 24: be alarmist in any way, shape or form. A lot

1336
01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:19,240
Speaker 24: of people are questioning, you know. I've seen a lot

1337
01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:22,879
Speaker 24: of people in Anderson as they saw the city encroaching,

1338
01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:27,440
Speaker 24: you know, the creep of liberalism from the city creeping

1339
01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:28,160
Speaker 24: into Anderson.

1340
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,759
Speaker 13: They're looking elsewhere, and they'll.

1341
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:31,479
Speaker 5: Say, you know, where, where?

1342
01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:31,800
Speaker 2: Where?

1343
01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:32,720
Speaker 13: Where should I you?

1344
01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:32,960
Speaker 11: You?

1345
01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:36,240
Speaker 13: You mentioned yourself. A lot of people in Hamilton County

1346
01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:39,439
Speaker 13: are looking elsewhere. You know.

1347
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:43,240
Speaker 24: Given given the results of the the the judge ships

1348
01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:44,799
Speaker 24: we lost, let me tell you something.

1349
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:46,360
Speaker 13: More important than anything else.

1350
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,519
Speaker 24: Uh, not to say, not to belittle what happened here

1351
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,800
Speaker 24: and Anderson, we lost a great too great judges here,

1352
01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:59,080
Speaker 24: Judge Josh Birkwood's losing that election is is is such

1353
01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:02,080
Speaker 24: a such a a blow to the safety of Hamilton County.

1354
01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:04,599
Speaker 24: Need I remind you that most of the stuff coming

1355
01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:08,200
Speaker 24: out of this Hamilton County with these decisions and and

1356
01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:12,200
Speaker 24: and and and punishments, does the name Sammy Silverstein ring.

1357
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:14,760
Speaker 1: Ring a bell to you immediately comes to mind?

1358
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:20,360
Speaker 13: So listen, you're gonna folks. You know you you can

1359
01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:22,840
Speaker 13: choose to sit quietly and think this isn't going to

1360
01:10:22,880 --> 01:10:25,120
Speaker 13: make a difference in your life. You know, politics sucks,

1361
01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:26,519
Speaker 13: and it does. I got to be honest with you,

1362
01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:28,559
Speaker 13: it really does. It's it's a crazzy business.

1363
01:10:29,200 --> 01:10:32,120
Speaker 24: But at the end of the day, you got to

1364
01:10:32,160 --> 01:10:34,519
Speaker 24: get involved because how many times people say, oh, this

1365
01:10:34,640 --> 01:10:37,680
Speaker 24: doesn't affect me, Well, it does affect you, whether you

1366
01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:39,920
Speaker 24: realize it or not. You might want to get involved,

1367
01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:43,120
Speaker 24: whether it's donating at a minimum, it's voting.

1368
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:47,960
Speaker 13: But you just need to get involved and we'll see

1369
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:48,479
Speaker 13: what happens.

1370
01:10:48,720 --> 01:10:51,679
Speaker 24: Sadly, I had some people think, oh, Anderson needs it's

1371
01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:55,479
Speaker 24: Joe Biden moment, so we can snap back stronger the

1372
01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:58,040
Speaker 24: next time and show people what happens. And I said,

1373
01:10:58,080 --> 01:11:01,000
Speaker 24: that's just a foolish foolish strategy, and I had some

1374
01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:02,840
Speaker 24: Republicans have that attitude.

1375
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:05,640
Speaker 13: So you know if you don't, if you don't our

1376
01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 13: Republican Party, I'll say this. Finally, the Republican.

1377
01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:12,600
Speaker 24: Party needs to understand that the purest tests that some

1378
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:15,560
Speaker 24: of them have is you're not Republican enough and I

1379
01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:18,200
Speaker 24: can't support you. Ergo, I'm not going to work very

1380
01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:21,519
Speaker 24: hard this election cycle. Need to change because I will

1381
01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 24: tell you to a person, I never see Democrats say

1382
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:27,800
Speaker 24: well that person's not liberal enough. You know, if you

1383
01:11:28,040 --> 01:11:31,599
Speaker 24: if you take the Democrat slate, enforcement if you, they

1384
01:11:31,760 --> 01:11:33,320
Speaker 24: they support you wholeheartedly.

1385
01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:36,520
Speaker 13: And the Republican Party still.

1386
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,720
Speaker 24: Has many many people that say, well, Bill is not

1387
01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:42,639
Speaker 24: Republican enough for me, So I'm going to just work

1388
01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:45,839
Speaker 24: half hard of this election. You didn't nominate the perfect

1389
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,639
Speaker 24: slate for me, so I'm not going to do everything

1390
01:11:48,720 --> 01:11:50,800
Speaker 24: for you or even one of our former ward chairs

1391
01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:53,880
Speaker 24: went so far as to actively support the Democrats because

1392
01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:56,519
Speaker 24: he was displeased with some of the selections made out here.

1393
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 2: Wow, and I tell you I stunning.

1394
01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 1: I acknowledge, appreciate, and do not disagree with anything he

1395
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,280
Speaker 1: brought up today. Drew out a time though sadly got

1396
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:08,880
Speaker 1: a run. I appreciate you calling him this morning. Stick around.

1397
01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:11,439
Speaker 1: Jack Aviden is ready to rock and roll. We'll get

1398
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 1: the big picture right after the news Today's top headlines

1399
01:12:15,439 --> 01:12:22,440
Speaker 1: coming up seven oh six. Here at fifty five camerasd

1400
01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:26,280
Speaker 1: talk station, trying in spite of reality, to make it

1401
01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:28,320
Speaker 1: a very happy Friday and looking forward to listener and

1402
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:30,040
Speaker 1: lunch today. If you can make it, love to see

1403
01:12:30,040 --> 01:12:32,240
Speaker 1: you there. I will be enjoying a beer, not drowning

1404
01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:36,240
Speaker 1: my sorrows, but maybe High green Bery brent Brentwood location

1405
01:12:36,360 --> 01:12:38,200
Speaker 1: is a place to be without further ado, It's that

1406
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:40,439
Speaker 1: time of the week when we are blessed by the

1407
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,040
Speaker 1: brilliance of Jack Aviden. It's time for the big picture.

1408
01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:45,599
Speaker 1: Jack Atherdan, welcome back to the fifty five Ksey Morning Show.

1409
01:12:45,640 --> 01:12:47,360
Speaker 1: My friend, it's always a pleasure having you on.

1410
01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:55,080
Speaker 25: Thanks mel Well. We can sugar coat yesterday's elections, and

1411
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:56,840
Speaker 25: not because you and I are trying to get off

1412
01:12:56,920 --> 01:13:01,920
Speaker 25: sugar locally and nationally. They were just the immediate bad

1413
01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:05,879
Speaker 25: news is that Democrats will proclaim they have a mandate

1414
01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:09,519
Speaker 25: and they will get even more adamant about standing up

1415
01:13:09,560 --> 01:13:14,639
Speaker 25: to Republicans. So the government shutdown may be prolonged even further.

1416
01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:19,360
Speaker 25: Our pain equals their gain, especially when they're promising prebees

1417
01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:23,920
Speaker 25: and Democrat judges right up to Supreme Court Justice Kataji

1418
01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:30,160
Speaker 25: Brown Jackson. They may escalate law fare even more. In

1419
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:32,760
Speaker 25: other words, cats and dogs will not be sleeping together

1420
01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:36,080
Speaker 25: anytime soon, Brian. But the good news is that Democrats

1421
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:39,200
Speaker 25: will have to live with the results of their woke

1422
01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:45,120
Speaker 25: socialist softime crime policies, and that could set Republicans up

1423
01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:49,040
Speaker 25: for the midterms next November if we actually show up

1424
01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:52,400
Speaker 25: and vote. The best hope I can offer this morning

1425
01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:57,679
Speaker 25: is that these elections in Cincinnati, New York City, Virginia,

1426
01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:01,320
Speaker 25: and New Jersey, which were dominated were respectively by Washington,

1427
01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:05,160
Speaker 25: DC and New York City. They were not about our

1428
01:14:05,240 --> 01:14:08,800
Speaker 25: country as a whole. I think Trump won last year

1429
01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:14,519
Speaker 25: decisively without these Democrat enclaims. But I think yesterday's elections

1430
01:14:14,640 --> 01:14:18,639
Speaker 25: do reflect is the biggest political trend of the last

1431
01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:25,559
Speaker 25: ten years. Cities versus country A little history. Cities used

1432
01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:28,920
Speaker 25: to be a cross section of our country, each of them. Sure,

1433
01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:33,400
Speaker 25: you had partisan political machines, New York's Democrat Tammany Hall,

1434
01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:38,599
Speaker 25: Cincinnati's Republican Boss Cox, but these machines were less about

1435
01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:43,759
Speaker 25: ideology than political patronage. They were machines. What every major

1436
01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:47,519
Speaker 25: city used to have in common was a rich mix

1437
01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:51,400
Speaker 25: of different kinds of citizens. Every city had its wealthy

1438
01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:56,160
Speaker 25: elites and it's so called intellectual elites in media and universities,

1439
01:14:56,760 --> 01:15:00,760
Speaker 25: but up until about fifty years ago, also used to

1440
01:15:00,880 --> 01:15:05,560
Speaker 25: have factories and factory workers. Smaller businesses catered to the

1441
01:15:05,640 --> 01:15:09,200
Speaker 25: bigger ones in the same city. We had, for instance,

1442
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:13,519
Speaker 25: small machine tool companies. I did a story about one

1443
01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:16,599
Speaker 25: once when we were doing success stories how businesses got

1444
01:15:16,680 --> 01:15:18,120
Speaker 25: started and why they thrive.

1445
01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:19,519
Speaker 2: We had.

1446
01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:26,360
Speaker 25: Businesses that made stationery for business and legal firms. Mike

1447
01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:29,599
Speaker 25: Bloomberg's fortune in New York City was made that way.

1448
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:32,680
Speaker 25: You probably used his forums in Chicago as I did

1449
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:33,559
Speaker 25: back in New York.

1450
01:15:33,720 --> 01:15:33,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1451
01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:41,320
Speaker 25: So the presence of manufacturing meant that each city and

1452
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:46,240
Speaker 25: a host of others. Thriving businesses were inside those cities

1453
01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:51,320
Speaker 25: and brought the people inside those cities. Butchers, tailors, candlestick makers,

1454
01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:56,320
Speaker 25: middle class families lived in cities, and so did millions

1455
01:15:56,439 --> 01:16:00,760
Speaker 25: of legal immigrants aspiring to assimilate and join the capitalist

1456
01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:04,519
Speaker 25: middle class. Because for most of our history You couldn't

1457
01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:09,280
Speaker 25: arrive here and immediately demand welfare, free medical care, much

1458
01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:11,839
Speaker 25: less a room at a New York City luxury hotel.

1459
01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:16,800
Speaker 25: Until now, American cities did not turn Marxists because the

1460
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:22,840
Speaker 25: most successful capitalists were investing in America. The turning point

1461
01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:27,280
Speaker 25: was World War II. The boom that followed victory changed

1462
01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:31,640
Speaker 25: the diverse character of America cities. Returning soldiers like my

1463
01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:34,519
Speaker 25: father took advantage of the GI Bill and either went

1464
01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:39,040
Speaker 25: to college or sought government funded technical training. They got

1465
01:16:39,160 --> 01:16:43,679
Speaker 25: married and moved to the new suburbs, seeking schools controlled

1466
01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:49,720
Speaker 25: by parents, public safety, affordable home ownership. So who was

1467
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:54,920
Speaker 25: left in the cities elites, especially financial elites, who increasingly

1468
01:16:55,080 --> 01:16:59,000
Speaker 25: made their fortunes by investing not in their own cities

1469
01:16:59,320 --> 01:17:03,000
Speaker 25: the way Henry Ford and Andrew Carnegie did, and not

1470
01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:07,000
Speaker 25: even investing in other parts of America. As we've discussed,

1471
01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:13,080
Speaker 25: the new multinational elites moved their factories and their investments overseas.

1472
01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:17,439
Speaker 25: Those elites would sooner invest in a communist Chinese factory

1473
01:17:17,720 --> 01:17:21,320
Speaker 25: that paid starvation wages than a more expensive and more

1474
01:17:21,400 --> 01:17:25,640
Speaker 25: heavily regulated factory in America. You can't altogether blame them.

1475
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:28,760
Speaker 25: That's why so many rich New Yorkers who have not

1476
01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:32,120
Speaker 25: yet left have turned a blind eye to their city's

1477
01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:37,400
Speaker 25: financial crisis. Big banks and financial firms like Goldman, Sax

1478
01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:42,520
Speaker 25: and black Rock they were really headquartered in Beijing. Democrats

1479
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:48,320
Speaker 25: and establishment Republicans passed so called free trade deals that

1480
01:17:48,479 --> 01:17:54,240
Speaker 25: let China steal our intellectual property, unilaterally tariff American manufacturers,

1481
01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:58,360
Speaker 25: and even banned many American products from being sold not

1482
01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:03,120
Speaker 25: only in communists China, but also in our allies countries

1483
01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:08,719
Speaker 25: in the EU, Japan, even Canada. Democrats like Nancy Pelosi

1484
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:12,679
Speaker 25: and the Bidens made millions of America's decline. They retained

1485
01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:17,160
Speaker 25: power by paying off the poor in our cities, including

1486
01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:21,479
Speaker 25: tens of millions of illegal immigrants. They aimed to increase

1487
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:25,759
Speaker 25: dependence on government by hooking more voters on food stamps,

1488
01:18:26,040 --> 01:18:29,799
Speaker 25: subsidized housing, free medical care, which is what this federal

1489
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:33,640
Speaker 25: shutdown is all about. Were New York already on the

1490
01:18:33,800 --> 01:18:40,120
Speaker 25: brink of bankruptcy, Zoran Mandani extols what he calls the

1491
01:18:40,360 --> 01:18:45,120
Speaker 25: dignity of handouts for victim groups. That's what socialism is

1492
01:18:45,200 --> 01:18:49,120
Speaker 25: all about. Donald Trump began changing all of this in

1493
01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:55,040
Speaker 25: twenty sixteen. He transformed the grand old establishment party into

1494
01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:59,920
Speaker 25: a populist mega party that boosted not investors in foreign countries,

1495
01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:05,080
Speaker 25: but America's own private sector and growing middle class. Trump

1496
01:19:05,160 --> 01:19:09,120
Speaker 25: and local Republicans are now facing tremendous opposition, not only

1497
01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:13,240
Speaker 25: from multinational elites, but also from Democrats who've been allowed

1498
01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:17,639
Speaker 25: to hijack schools and brainwash students. Not in the last

1499
01:19:17,680 --> 01:19:20,280
Speaker 25: five years, not in the last ten years, since the

1500
01:19:20,479 --> 01:19:24,840
Speaker 25: nineteen sixties. We have discussed this too, students who moved

1501
01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:29,360
Speaker 25: on to fake journalism, Hollywood wokeness, and, as we discussed

1502
01:19:29,439 --> 01:19:32,479
Speaker 25: just last week, pop music that by and large does

1503
01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:38,080
Speaker 25: not celebrate or even tolerate traditional American values. Folks, maybe

1504
01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:43,280
Speaker 25: I'm nuts, but I believe we can retain and even expand.

1505
01:19:43,400 --> 01:19:46,960
Speaker 25: Our majorities in Congress are very slim majorities, and the

1506
01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 25: state capitals. Next year, Trump's big, beautiful tax cuts and

1507
01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:54,560
Speaker 25: other stimulus measures will have kicked in by them the

1508
01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:58,599
Speaker 25: way the Reagan ones did, and our already growing economy

1509
01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:03,320
Speaker 25: should so. Thanks to Trump, most of the world, even

1510
01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:07,040
Speaker 25: the Middle East, is now committed to peace. And Yes,

1511
01:20:07,120 --> 01:20:10,840
Speaker 25: our country will have seen and felt the failures of Marxism,

1512
01:20:11,439 --> 01:20:14,560
Speaker 25: but we haven't become Marxist. From New York, Chicago and

1513
01:20:14,720 --> 01:20:17,680
Speaker 25: La too. I'm sorry right here in Cincinnati, perhaps we

1514
01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:21,360
Speaker 25: have Hamilton County can't believe what's happened. It's why Amesley

1515
01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:24,320
Speaker 25: and I. It's one reason we moved to Butler County

1516
01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:26,760
Speaker 25: a dozen years ago, and I've been urging here to

1517
01:20:26,840 --> 01:20:27,320
Speaker 25: come with it.

1518
01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:29,760
Speaker 1: I know my wife maybe chimed in this morning, Jack

1519
01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:31,680
Speaker 1: and said we need to start looking at Butler. He

1520
01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:34,879
Speaker 1: named Butler County specifically. Maybe it's because he you and Amesley,

1521
01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:35,400
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1522
01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:38,479
Speaker 25: Immediately we have room in our house. There you go,

1523
01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:42,160
Speaker 25: and from the left wing New York suburbs in New

1524
01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:47,040
Speaker 25: Jersey to the Washington D C. Suburbs in Virginia, you've

1525
01:20:47,120 --> 01:20:50,840
Speaker 25: lost those states. But we can't wait. We must immediately

1526
01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:55,040
Speaker 25: recruit and support candidates who are not only principled, but

1527
01:20:55,200 --> 01:20:59,799
Speaker 25: who can win with our help. I believe, as Charlie

1528
01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:04,479
Speaker 25: that America is at a turning point. If even on

1529
01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:07,280
Speaker 25: bad days, and thanks to commentators like you, Brian, we

1530
01:21:07,439 --> 01:21:11,439
Speaker 25: stay optimistic and win over hearts and minds one by

1531
01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:16,519
Speaker 25: one and then kick keyasters so that our side gets

1532
01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:19,280
Speaker 25: out and actually votes. It's shameful what happened, Amesley and

1533
01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:22,519
Speaker 25: I you know, we're working the polls yesterday and the

1534
01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:25,000
Speaker 25: low turnout and most of the people who were turning

1535
01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:26,680
Speaker 25: out were not agreeing with us.

1536
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:29,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a sad thing. But let's unpackage this whole

1537
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:32,120
Speaker 1: reality of going on. The cities. It used to be

1538
01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:35,160
Speaker 1: as you historically explained, and the suburbs were created in

1539
01:21:35,160 --> 01:21:36,679
Speaker 1: the aftermath of World War Two. A lot of people

1540
01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:38,720
Speaker 1: moved out of the city searching for maybe a better life.

1541
01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:41,960
Speaker 1: Maybe they just wanted a yard, maybe get away from crime.

1542
01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:43,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, but that's the reality of what happened.

1543
01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:46,800
Speaker 1: And of course there's this been this big push by

1544
01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 1: the woke left and the global warming folks to get

1545
01:21:50,280 --> 01:21:53,040
Speaker 1: people to move into these concentrated, packed cities, all this

1546
01:21:53,200 --> 01:21:56,280
Speaker 1: plan development. I can't see people embracing that. Of course,

1547
01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:57,960
Speaker 1: if there was a great idea, they would have embraced it.

1548
01:21:58,040 --> 01:22:00,840
Speaker 1: But free isn't free. I think New York's going to

1549
01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:02,519
Speaker 1: be an illustration of this. You're talking about the elites

1550
01:22:02,560 --> 01:22:04,080
Speaker 1: that are still in New York. Do you think they're

1551
01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:07,040
Speaker 1: going to stay if they're facing with a massive tax

1552
01:22:07,160 --> 01:22:10,120
Speaker 1: increase and all these free programs that literally are not free.

1553
01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:12,679
Speaker 1: There's only so much money that's going around. And unless

1554
01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:16,320
Speaker 1: all many capitulates and agrees to Mandami's weird tax proposals,

1555
01:22:16,360 --> 01:22:19,280
Speaker 1: which I think will drive more people away, they're going

1556
01:22:19,320 --> 01:22:20,960
Speaker 1: to run out of other people's moneys and it's going

1557
01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:22,840
Speaker 1: to collapse down on itself. What is going to be

1558
01:22:22,920 --> 01:22:25,120
Speaker 1: the end result of all of this as we see

1559
01:22:25,160 --> 01:22:29,960
Speaker 1: the cities go completely blue with I would say, seemingly

1560
01:22:30,160 --> 01:22:34,280
Speaker 1: no ability to transform themselves or make themselves more palatable

1561
01:22:34,360 --> 01:22:37,120
Speaker 1: to folks like you and I who might otherwise enjoy

1562
01:22:37,200 --> 01:22:39,240
Speaker 1: living in an urban environment. We just don't like to

1563
01:22:39,280 --> 01:22:41,880
Speaker 1: be settled with the crime, the politics, the infrastructure problems,

1564
01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:43,880
Speaker 1: and everything else that these leftist policies create.

1565
01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:47,920
Speaker 25: Jack, some people have already even fleeing from the city.

1566
01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:50,320
Speaker 25: Oh yeah, they've gone to the suburbs, and they're trying

1567
01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:52,800
Speaker 25: to turn the suburbs as blue as they were back

1568
01:22:52,840 --> 01:22:55,680
Speaker 25: in New York. They think somehow that the conditions that

1569
01:22:55,760 --> 01:22:59,000
Speaker 25: they're fleeing from won't follow them if they vote the

1570
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:02,240
Speaker 25: same way they do. But you know, New York City

1571
01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:04,799
Speaker 25: actually had a pretty big turnout, as you mentioned earlier

1572
01:23:04,880 --> 01:23:08,320
Speaker 25: in the show, And I know some of the people

1573
01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:10,800
Speaker 25: who voted for the first time they are young, people.

1574
01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:15,400
Speaker 25: They are brainwashed and they're just you know, reality hasn't

1575
01:23:15,479 --> 01:23:18,320
Speaker 25: kicked in. And the same people who are relying on

1576
01:23:18,720 --> 01:23:21,400
Speaker 25: those votes are now calling for sixteen year olds to

1577
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:24,080
Speaker 25: be able to vote because they know the kids are idiots,

1578
01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:28,240
Speaker 25: and it's you know, I'm sorry to insult some people

1579
01:23:28,320 --> 01:23:32,080
Speaker 25: I know very well, but it's just impossible to try

1580
01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:34,160
Speaker 25: to talk with them about this. As far as New

1581
01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:37,840
Speaker 25: York goes, Kathy Hochel, the governor, the Democrat governor, is

1582
01:23:37,960 --> 01:23:40,120
Speaker 25: up for reelection next year. She's going to be facing

1583
01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:43,760
Speaker 25: more than likely at least Stefanic. You remember that she

1584
01:23:43,960 --> 01:23:46,280
Speaker 25: was a congress person and then Trump wanted her in

1585
01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:48,920
Speaker 25: the UN. And I'm glad she didn't go there, because

1586
01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:53,320
Speaker 25: why should anybody go to the UN, even tourists. But

1587
01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:57,440
Speaker 25: that's going to be an interesting race because Hokle Mayfield,

1588
01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:02,080
Speaker 25: if mom Donnie hasn't actually blown up the city by

1589
01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:04,920
Speaker 25: next November, that she has to try to get those

1590
01:24:05,080 --> 01:24:08,080
Speaker 25: young voters who came out in such big numbers for him,

1591
01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 25: or she may feel so many Democrats too, that they're

1592
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:15,760
Speaker 25: going to be opposing as a phony moderate. There's nothing

1593
01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:19,519
Speaker 25: very moderate about Kathy Hochel, but every Democrat seems moderate

1594
01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:23,120
Speaker 25: compared with Mandani, Right, So you know, even these new

1595
01:24:23,240 --> 01:24:27,559
Speaker 25: governors in New Jersey and Virginia, you know they seem reasonable, right.

1596
01:24:28,320 --> 01:24:30,720
Speaker 1: To compare them with us, Well, that was something not

1597
01:24:30,880 --> 01:24:33,240
Speaker 1: just the Wall Street grovel. Others have observed that, you know,

1598
01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:36,120
Speaker 1: no shock, Virginia, New Jersey went with the Democrat governors,

1599
01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:39,160
Speaker 1: but they were rather centrist folks when you compare them

1600
01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:43,439
Speaker 1: to Mondami or AOC. So it is is it because

1601
01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:47,840
Speaker 1: of that centrists realistic position that they came across with

1602
01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:52,120
Speaker 1: that they won or is Mondami the new wave and

1603
01:24:52,240 --> 01:24:54,800
Speaker 1: the new the future for the Democrat Party? I mean,

1604
01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:57,040
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party's got its own challenges figuring out which

1605
01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:59,240
Speaker 1: direction they want to go. So in the aftermath of

1606
01:24:59,360 --> 01:25:01,840
Speaker 1: yesterday where the Democrats did pretty damn well across the

1607
01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:03,920
Speaker 1: country and the elections that were going on, does this

1608
01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:07,000
Speaker 1: mean they shift further left or do they take the

1609
01:25:07,120 --> 01:25:09,960
Speaker 1: queue from Virginia, New Jersey and start running some more

1610
01:25:10,120 --> 01:25:13,080
Speaker 1: palatable centrist candidates. Which where do you see it going?

1611
01:25:13,840 --> 01:25:17,320
Speaker 25: Well, this is why I wanted to talk about cities

1612
01:25:17,439 --> 01:25:19,280
Speaker 25: versus the rest of the country. And of course, if

1613
01:25:19,280 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 25: you look at that famous map that Donald Trump loves

1614
01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:26,400
Speaker 25: so much that shows read everywhere except for the bigger cities,

1615
01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:30,960
Speaker 25: including almost all of our Ohio cities, not just Cincinnati.

1616
01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:36,480
Speaker 25: Then you see how you can tilt the election electorally.

1617
01:25:37,160 --> 01:25:40,000
Speaker 25: It doesn't reflect the way many people feel. In the

1618
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:42,680
Speaker 25: last election, you know, Trump on the popular vote, so

1619
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:47,280
Speaker 25: it's how most people feel. But that concentration of Democrats

1620
01:25:47,680 --> 01:25:51,360
Speaker 25: can give you an election, especially with the jerrymanderin that's

1621
01:25:51,400 --> 01:25:55,080
Speaker 25: not going on now. In fairness, Texas, you know said

1622
01:25:55,160 --> 01:25:57,439
Speaker 25: we're going to go out there and Jerrymander and we're

1623
01:25:57,479 --> 01:26:00,520
Speaker 25: going to pick up some Republican seats. And now California

1624
01:26:00,640 --> 01:26:02,479
Speaker 25: is going to do the same thing in spades. And

1625
01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:05,080
Speaker 25: we're seeing more and more states doing that, and that

1626
01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:08,160
Speaker 25: leads for better or for worse. And I think the

1627
01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:10,720
Speaker 25: long run it could be for worse because again, that

1628
01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:13,439
Speaker 25: was the point of that history that we used to

1629
01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:16,840
Speaker 25: have diverse people living side by side. But we're going

1630
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:20,200
Speaker 25: to have more and more polarization. I don't think there's

1631
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:22,680
Speaker 25: any getting away from it. We just have to win

1632
01:26:22,800 --> 01:26:23,360
Speaker 25: that debate.

1633
01:26:24,400 --> 01:26:26,760
Speaker 1: Well, I guess he needs to get bad enough to

1634
01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:28,880
Speaker 1: get people off their butts, because if only one out

1635
01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:31,080
Speaker 1: of four people show up to steer the direction of

1636
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:34,360
Speaker 1: a city or a state or country. Then you got

1637
01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:35,559
Speaker 1: to make what is.

1638
01:26:35,600 --> 01:26:38,400
Speaker 25: That going to take. Brian, I honestly have no ideas

1639
01:26:38,439 --> 01:26:39,799
Speaker 25: about that, and I've been looking.

1640
01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:41,200
Speaker 1: Through history catastrophe.

1641
01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:45,000
Speaker 25: I mean, even then you tend to go left.

1642
01:26:46,479 --> 01:26:50,320
Speaker 1: Well perhaps, but if government has failed you and you're

1643
01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:52,439
Speaker 1: dependent upon government, and you do run out of other

1644
01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:54,960
Speaker 1: people's money, which is inevitable, it always happens. Look at

1645
01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:56,840
Speaker 1: your history. You know your history better than anybody else.

1646
01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:01,800
Speaker 1: Then that that concept fails on its own merits, and

1647
01:27:01,920 --> 01:27:03,320
Speaker 1: you have to come out of the other side, like

1648
01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:06,320
Speaker 1: phoenix rising from the ashes, with some different direction. Because

1649
01:27:06,360 --> 01:27:08,519
Speaker 1: of course you can look back on the epic failure

1650
01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:11,200
Speaker 1: that was the socialism that you relied on to put

1651
01:27:11,240 --> 01:27:12,080
Speaker 1: food on your plate.

1652
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:17,200
Speaker 25: Establishment Republicans, we always have to admit this, were largely

1653
01:27:17,360 --> 01:27:20,559
Speaker 25: responsible for the nineteen twenty nine crash, and of course

1654
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:24,560
Speaker 25: that brought us FDR and a continuation of the socialism

1655
01:27:24,640 --> 01:27:27,679
Speaker 25: that was starting under Woodrow Wilson. But of course FDR

1656
01:27:28,520 --> 01:27:31,320
Speaker 25: really gave us full blown socialism, and he fought the

1657
01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:33,080
Speaker 25: Supreme Court to make sure that he could keep it

1658
01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:37,559
Speaker 25: in place. Look at Germany. Germany went through a hyper inflation,

1659
01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:42,360
Speaker 25: God willing, we'll never see, you know, the wheelbarrows filled

1660
01:27:42,439 --> 01:27:45,439
Speaker 25: with money worthless currency, so that you could buy a

1661
01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:47,840
Speaker 25: loaf of bread that was going to be ten times

1662
01:27:47,920 --> 01:27:51,640
Speaker 25: more expensive at lunchtime. But the Germans, you know, we

1663
01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:53,960
Speaker 25: think of Hitler as being right wing. He ran as

1664
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:56,880
Speaker 25: a socialist, ye, and that's what people were expecting. That's

1665
01:27:56,880 --> 01:28:00,679
Speaker 25: what it's called the National Socialist Party. And the same

1666
01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:03,120
Speaker 25: thing's happened in a whole slew of other countries. We

1667
01:28:03,160 --> 01:28:05,519
Speaker 25: could talk about, you know, for the last thousand years.

1668
01:28:05,560 --> 01:28:08,280
Speaker 25: So you know, the problem with this gets us back

1669
01:28:08,320 --> 01:28:11,160
Speaker 25: to the shutdown. Chuck Schumer and the others are betting

1670
01:28:11,560 --> 01:28:14,080
Speaker 25: that even if they caused the pain, and you you

1671
01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:17,519
Speaker 25: convince somebody that they cause the pain when somebody really

1672
01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:21,439
Speaker 25: can't afford the next trip to Kroger's. Yeah, they're going

1673
01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:23,320
Speaker 25: to go to the party that says we're going to

1674
01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:26,320
Speaker 25: give you something free, which is on mom Donnie's government

1675
01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:26,960
Speaker 25: grocery store.

1676
01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:29,439
Speaker 1: The fulfillment of what they have been desiring, you know,

1677
01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:33,200
Speaker 1: dependence on government equals votes for their status quo and

1678
01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:37,120
Speaker 1: their ongoing socialist policies. Oh, jack Ada, and I dearly

1679
01:28:37,200 --> 01:28:39,320
Speaker 1: appreciate you so much, especially on a day like today

1680
01:28:39,400 --> 01:28:41,560
Speaker 1: when I'm just struggling to put my thoughts together. You

1681
01:28:41,600 --> 01:28:43,720
Speaker 1: always do such a wonderful job, and I'm blessed, and

1682
01:28:43,760 --> 01:28:45,160
Speaker 1: I know my listeners are blessed to have you on

1683
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:45,960
Speaker 1: the show every week.

1684
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:48,479
Speaker 25: And I'll see you're making up your bed up here

1685
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:49,000
Speaker 25: right now.

1686
01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:52,400
Speaker 1: See it. Butler County, jack Yah, looking for help all

1687
01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:57,559
Speaker 1: morning to sort of figure out what exactly yesterday man

1688
01:28:57,680 --> 01:29:00,479
Speaker 1: for not just the city of Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Butler County,

1689
01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:03,679
Speaker 1: Warren County, the regular surrounding counties, state of Ohio. Of course,

1690
01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:08,320
Speaker 1: you got Virginia, New Jersey and crazy, crazy crazy Zorhan Mandani,

1691
01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:12,599
Speaker 1: the next mayor of New York City. That's really mind

1692
01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:14,600
Speaker 1: blowing to me. Never thought i'd see a day in

1693
01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:21,880
Speaker 1: my life that a proud, self labeled socialist could even

1694
01:29:21,880 --> 01:29:24,080
Speaker 1: get elected in this country. That's how far we've gone.

1695
01:29:24,400 --> 01:29:24,560
Speaker 7: You know.

1696
01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:27,040
Speaker 1: I look at my wife and it's just it's so

1697
01:29:27,320 --> 01:29:29,719
Speaker 1: dramatically different than it was when I was a young person,

1698
01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:32,559
Speaker 1: when you could call someone a communist, then people would

1699
01:29:32,640 --> 01:29:37,720
Speaker 1: cower it. It's like, I'm not a communist now, it's

1700
01:29:37,760 --> 01:29:40,880
Speaker 1: like a badge of pride. Anyhow. Five one, three, seven,

1701
01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:42,920
Speaker 1: four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two three

1702
01:29:42,960 --> 01:29:45,360
Speaker 1: talk toun five fifty on eighteen defense, of course, the

1703
01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:47,439
Speaker 1: big news locally with local stories in front of me.

1704
01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:50,160
Speaker 1: I have Tab Purvo and the same council members that

1705
01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:53,000
Speaker 1: you well had seated before. All the incumbents won, and

1706
01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:57,280
Speaker 1: the only new addition is Ryan James. And honestly don't

1707
01:29:57,320 --> 01:30:00,479
Speaker 1: know anything about Ryan James, but congratulations Ryan, your council

1708
01:30:00,560 --> 01:30:04,760
Speaker 1: member number nine. Right behind Ryan James, Liz Keating coming

1709
01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:06,680
Speaker 1: at number ten and breaking my heart. One of the

1710
01:30:06,720 --> 01:30:09,360
Speaker 1: hardest things for me to swallow this morning is Christopher Smitheman,

1711
01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:12,639
Speaker 1: right after Liz Keaton coming in at number eleven. God

1712
01:30:12,720 --> 01:30:16,160
Speaker 1: bless you, Christopher. I do not understand, and I don't

1713
01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:18,760
Speaker 1: understand how so few people showed up I coming in

1714
01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:21,360
Speaker 1: at like twenty eight percent of the city's residents actually

1715
01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:26,719
Speaker 1: cast a vote. That's that's painful to behold. And after

1716
01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:31,320
Speaker 1: all of that, what we've gone through, and it was

1717
01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:34,439
Speaker 1: kind of interesting. Kevin Aldridge, an op ed opinion writer.

1718
01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:36,880
Speaker 1: Since I inquire, he pointed out, over the past six months,

1719
01:30:36,920 --> 01:30:39,519
Speaker 1: Parval seemed intent on making his own job harder. He

1720
01:30:39,640 --> 01:30:43,200
Speaker 1: mishandled the Hyde Park Square redevelopment. Violent incidents downtown and

1721
01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:45,960
Speaker 1: in and over the Rhine reignited fears about crime City's

1722
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:48,719
Speaker 1: investigation to police Chief Trease that THIJI raised more questions

1723
01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:51,400
Speaker 1: than it answered, and the infamous brawl at Fourth and

1724
01:30:51,520 --> 01:30:54,479
Speaker 1: L made Cincinnati a national meme for all the wrong reasons. Yeah,

1725
01:30:54,600 --> 01:31:00,400
Speaker 1: all that any people vote for the same thing now,

1726
01:31:00,439 --> 01:31:03,479
Speaker 1: he suggested, it's Corey Bowman was not ready for prime time.

1727
01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:09,760
Speaker 1: And maybe there's some substance of that lack of experience.

1728
01:31:09,840 --> 01:31:14,240
Speaker 1: For example, we've elected people without experience previously. But he said,

1729
01:31:14,439 --> 01:31:17,680
Speaker 1: per of all, shouldn't make a make mistake this landslide

1730
01:31:17,760 --> 01:31:20,000
Speaker 1: for a love letter. He so that many Cincinnatians voted

1731
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:22,600
Speaker 1: for him the same way people reach for aspirin. Not

1732
01:31:22,880 --> 01:31:25,760
Speaker 1: because they want to, he write, but because it's the

1733
01:31:25,880 --> 01:31:29,040
Speaker 1: least painful option. And somebody wrote a question mark after that,

1734
01:31:29,120 --> 01:31:34,720
Speaker 1: because is it the least painful option? It's the b

1735
01:31:34,920 --> 01:31:39,360
Speaker 1: words you know versus the ones you don't, he said,

1736
01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:43,000
Speaker 1: growing unease about how this administrator administration operates. An obsession

1737
01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:45,400
Speaker 1: with optics, a focus on the press, conferences more than

1738
01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:48,040
Speaker 1: public policy, A photo op over the follow through par

1739
01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:50,400
Speaker 1: of all critics, even some allies, see a man who

1740
01:31:50,479 --> 01:31:52,439
Speaker 1: loves the idea of being mayor more than he loves

1741
01:31:52,479 --> 01:31:54,840
Speaker 1: the grind of governing. Yeah, we've been talking about that

1742
01:31:55,000 --> 01:31:57,320
Speaker 1: for well years here in the Morning Show and other

1743
01:31:57,360 --> 01:32:01,920
Speaker 1: people as well. He says that the city is hungry

1744
01:32:01,960 --> 01:32:04,320
Speaker 1: for substance. The city is growing, but unevenly the public

1745
01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:09,519
Speaker 1: once results safer neighborhoods, real affordable housing, competent leadership in

1746
01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:13,439
Speaker 1: city hall. He says, So, yes, Mayor, I have to

1747
01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:15,280
Speaker 1: have pur Ball's earned the right to take his victory left,

1748
01:32:15,320 --> 01:32:18,639
Speaker 1: but he'd be wise to treat it as a cautionary one.

1749
01:32:19,680 --> 01:32:21,960
Speaker 1: He said. Cincinnatians gave him another term not because they're

1750
01:32:22,040 --> 01:32:25,120
Speaker 1: thrilled with his performance, because the alternative was unthinkable. The

1751
01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:27,400
Speaker 1: best thing he can do with his new mandate is

1752
01:32:27,439 --> 01:32:29,719
Speaker 1: to stop worrying about his image and start worrying about

1753
01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:35,840
Speaker 1: his impact. If he listens more than he talks, mister

1754
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:40,519
Speaker 1: Aldridge wrote, learns from the past six months all the

1755
01:32:40,520 --> 01:32:44,960
Speaker 1: aforementioned goofs and blunders, and surrounds himself with people who

1756
01:32:45,080 --> 01:32:47,639
Speaker 1: challenge rather than flatter him, he still has a chance

1757
01:32:47,680 --> 01:32:50,240
Speaker 1: to grow into the kind of leader that Cincinnati needs well.

1758
01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:55,320
Speaker 1: I chuckled at that statement and no criticism Kevin Aldridge.

1759
01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:59,600
Speaker 1: But the voters surrounded have to have purvall with the

1760
01:32:59,720 --> 01:33:02,519
Speaker 1: same people who flatter him, this same council members, with

1761
01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:05,000
Speaker 1: the exception of the one new one, all the yes

1762
01:33:05,360 --> 01:33:07,840
Speaker 1: men and women that surround to have to have pearl ball.

1763
01:33:07,880 --> 01:33:09,680
Speaker 1: So I don't think we can expect a whole lot

1764
01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:13,240
Speaker 1: of change going on. We will see popcorn is out.

1765
01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:16,880
Speaker 1: Who's next? Joe Strucker? That will be Uh, looks like Jay, Oh,

1766
01:33:16,960 --> 01:33:19,400
Speaker 1: it's a break. I'm well, I have at thirty seconds,

1767
01:33:19,439 --> 01:33:22,840
Speaker 1: I usually go Joe saying no, Jay, and Joe and

1768
01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:25,519
Speaker 1: the others calling in right now start calls right after

1769
01:33:25,640 --> 01:33:28,240
Speaker 1: these brief words, beginning with twenty two to three Station

1770
01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:33,519
Speaker 1: seven nine post election Wednesday, dealing with the aftermath and

1771
01:33:33,560 --> 01:33:35,120
Speaker 1: trying to sort it out, and God bless each and

1772
01:33:35,200 --> 01:33:36,760
Speaker 1: ever want to be for calling in today. Got quite

1773
01:33:36,760 --> 01:33:38,960
Speaker 1: a few callers online, and I thank Jay for holding

1774
01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:40,439
Speaker 1: over the break. You're first out of the gate, Jay,

1775
01:33:40,439 --> 01:33:41,679
Speaker 1: as promised. Thanks for holding.

1776
01:33:43,160 --> 01:33:44,080
Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, Brian.

1777
01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:44,800
Speaker 7: Hey.

1778
01:33:44,880 --> 01:33:47,280
Speaker 26: I'm a believer in given credit where credit is due,

1779
01:33:47,400 --> 01:33:49,160
Speaker 26: so I just want to give a hearty thank you

1780
01:33:49,360 --> 01:33:53,680
Speaker 26: to Central Committee of the Republican Party of Ohio, the

1781
01:33:53,800 --> 01:33:58,639
Speaker 26: master strategist, the cocktail and dinner crowd up there.

1782
01:34:00,280 --> 01:34:02,559
Speaker 6: You know, they are the people, the.

1783
01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:04,679
Speaker 26: Smart ones out of all of us, who make sure

1784
01:34:04,760 --> 01:34:07,640
Speaker 26: that elections like this go up with stunning victory. So

1785
01:34:08,520 --> 01:34:11,960
Speaker 26: and you know the wine is in the governor mansion

1786
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:15,400
Speaker 26: that has their fingerprints on it. So once again, thank

1787
01:34:15,439 --> 01:34:18,040
Speaker 26: you Central Committee. You guys are awesome. And the second

1788
01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:20,920
Speaker 26: point is that I went down through the list. I've

1789
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:22,680
Speaker 26: live up in Warren County and I was taking a

1790
01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:28,960
Speaker 26: look at the school levees and fire levees. Overwhelmingly support

1791
01:34:29,160 --> 01:34:32,320
Speaker 26: and people voted yes. And I have to ask the

1792
01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:34,800
Speaker 26: people that are voting yes for all these levees, are

1793
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:36,600
Speaker 26: you the same people that are going to vote no

1794
01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:39,840
Speaker 26: to you know you're going to be on the side

1795
01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:43,360
Speaker 26: of eliminating property tax? Do you understand how this works?

1796
01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:49,599
Speaker 26: And I am with Springboro Public Schools. That place looks

1797
01:34:49,720 --> 01:34:53,879
Speaker 26: like a college campus with a college level football stadium,

1798
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:58,120
Speaker 26: a practice field, soccer stadium. It is unbelievable the amount

1799
01:34:58,160 --> 01:35:00,320
Speaker 26: of money that they have and they just got another

1800
01:35:00,400 --> 01:35:02,960
Speaker 26: I think fifteen million dollars. It's going to be spread

1801
01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:06,200
Speaker 26: out over thirty five years and it was sixty six

1802
01:35:06,320 --> 01:35:10,519
Speaker 26: percent four and like thirty three percent against police. Levy

1803
01:35:10,600 --> 01:35:13,880
Speaker 26: went and you know another, last time I saw an

1804
01:35:13,880 --> 01:35:17,920
Speaker 26: old police cruiser or an old fire truck. Where I'm at,

1805
01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:21,920
Speaker 26: all I see are taj Mahal fire stations that look

1806
01:35:22,120 --> 01:35:26,720
Speaker 26: like look like a ten million dollars country club at

1807
01:35:26,760 --> 01:35:32,240
Speaker 26: a high end golf course with a conference center in it. Republicans,

1808
01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:34,320
Speaker 26: you got to wake up because there had to be

1809
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:38,200
Speaker 26: a lot of Republicans to vote yes on school.

1810
01:35:38,040 --> 01:35:40,759
Speaker 6: And on fire and on police.

1811
01:35:41,400 --> 01:35:44,320
Speaker 26: You just keep wanting more of everything, and then we'd

1812
01:35:44,360 --> 01:35:45,280
Speaker 26: bitch about how much.

1813
01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:46,479
Speaker 5: Our property taxes are.

1814
01:35:47,200 --> 01:35:50,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's and so you know, I will.

1815
01:35:50,160 --> 01:35:54,519
Speaker 26: Continue the mantra of don't vote Democrat, don't vote Rhino,

1816
01:35:55,120 --> 01:35:57,479
Speaker 26: and Central Committee? What are they doing for us?

1817
01:35:57,840 --> 01:35:59,439
Speaker 1: Have a good day, Brian, I appreciate it.

1818
01:35:59,560 --> 01:35:59,720
Speaker 13: Jay.

1819
01:35:59,800 --> 01:36:03,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was actually expecting a different outcome on a

1820
01:36:03,040 --> 01:36:05,719
Speaker 1: lot of those levies as well, because of the insane

1821
01:36:05,840 --> 01:36:07,880
Speaker 1: level of property taxes that are facing out. Why would

1822
01:36:07,920 --> 01:36:11,920
Speaker 1: you vote for more? But it says schools, it says parks, boy,

1823
01:36:11,960 --> 01:36:14,200
Speaker 1: and everybody knows that pulls at your heartstrings, and everybody

1824
01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:16,960
Speaker 1: ends up voting for him. Mike, you're next, Thanks for

1825
01:36:17,040 --> 01:36:18,360
Speaker 1: calling this morning. Welcome to the show.

1826
01:36:20,479 --> 01:36:21,720
Speaker 6: Hey, Brian, you sir?

1827
01:36:23,080 --> 01:36:24,519
Speaker 1: Are you there, Yes, sir, you're on.

1828
01:36:25,160 --> 01:36:27,040
Speaker 6: Oh I'm sorry, I'm on my car.

1829
01:36:27,200 --> 01:36:27,680
Speaker 14: Forgive me.

1830
01:36:28,560 --> 01:36:32,280
Speaker 6: I just wanted to call about the Mundamie thing everybody

1831
01:36:32,560 --> 01:36:36,520
Speaker 6: keeps talking about. Now they have a quote communist socialist

1832
01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:40,840
Speaker 6: in New York. It's actually worse than that. First of all,

1833
01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:44,640
Speaker 6: he cannot be a communist, even though he ran on that,

1834
01:36:45,120 --> 01:36:47,519
Speaker 6: because he knew people believe it or not, would accept

1835
01:36:47,640 --> 01:36:55,000
Speaker 6: that he's an Islamist. And that's worse. Islamists cannot be communists. Okay,

1836
01:36:55,400 --> 01:36:58,479
Speaker 6: so just everybody knows, I know, that's what he ran on.

1837
01:36:59,080 --> 01:37:02,320
Speaker 6: But he's also he can't be a communist. So what

1838
01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:05,519
Speaker 6: you got is a wolf in sheets clothing and New

1839
01:37:05,640 --> 01:37:08,640
Speaker 6: York after nine to eleven, has just voted in an

1840
01:37:08,800 --> 01:37:10,519
Speaker 6: Islamist mayor.

1841
01:37:10,640 --> 01:37:15,000
Speaker 1: And someone who wouldn't even criticize Hamas after the murders

1842
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:18,240
Speaker 1: of October seventh. I mean, there is such a profoundly

1843
01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:22,759
Speaker 1: huge Jewish population New York. I mean, that's just mind bobbing.

1844
01:37:22,880 --> 01:37:26,280
Speaker 1: Although the turnout was massive, so I am certain that

1845
01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:29,160
Speaker 1: probably every Jewish person in the city of New York

1846
01:37:29,160 --> 01:37:30,800
Speaker 1: who is able to vote voted, whether or not they

1847
01:37:30,920 --> 01:37:33,799
Speaker 1: voted for mom DOMI or not. He has a disdain

1848
01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:38,439
Speaker 1: for the Jewish people, profound disdainment. He is anti Semitic.

1849
01:37:38,560 --> 01:37:42,480
Speaker 1: He's on record he belongs to all these anti Semitic organizations.

1850
01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:44,560
Speaker 1: I mean they voted for that, eyes wide open.

1851
01:37:45,280 --> 01:37:48,599
Speaker 6: And very He's the Islamist, is what I'm getting at.

1852
01:37:48,760 --> 01:37:49,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I heard.

1853
01:37:49,479 --> 01:37:52,479
Speaker 6: I think people have missed it. They keep going communist communists,

1854
01:37:52,479 --> 01:37:54,720
Speaker 6: and I'm going, Nope, he can't be.

1855
01:37:55,080 --> 01:37:58,280
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'll be the first person to admit I am

1856
01:37:58,360 --> 01:38:01,360
Speaker 1: not a theologian for any particular religion, so I'm not

1857
01:38:01,439 --> 01:38:04,920
Speaker 1: familiar with the fundamental tenets of Islam to know whether

1858
01:38:05,040 --> 01:38:07,880
Speaker 1: or not they can embrace any particular political philosophy. So

1859
01:38:08,040 --> 01:38:09,479
Speaker 1: I'll take you at your word on that.

1860
01:38:11,360 --> 01:38:11,679
Speaker 14: Quickly.

1861
01:38:11,800 --> 01:38:17,040
Speaker 6: They can't, okay that the communist philosophies are an antithesis

1862
01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:21,479
Speaker 6: to Islam, and that's why anyway, But thank you. I

1863
01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:22,800
Speaker 6: just wanted to make that point, Brian.

1864
01:38:23,640 --> 01:38:26,240
Speaker 1: That's what the morning show is all about. Who's next? Joe,

1865
01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:28,639
Speaker 1: Jack a, Rick, Joe hang on Rick's neck? Rick, thanks

1866
01:38:28,680 --> 01:38:29,479
Speaker 1: for calling this morning.

1867
01:38:30,320 --> 01:38:33,760
Speaker 27: Yeah, I can't believe that Chris Smitherman got the votes

1868
01:38:33,800 --> 01:38:36,160
Speaker 27: that he got, It just doesn't It doesn't make any

1869
01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:39,760
Speaker 27: sense to me because a whole lot of people he's

1870
01:38:39,800 --> 01:38:42,720
Speaker 27: been for a long time on your radio station every

1871
01:38:42,760 --> 01:38:45,920
Speaker 27: Monday morning, a lot of white people supported him, and

1872
01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:49,000
Speaker 27: he had such name recognition in the black community. It

1873
01:38:49,160 --> 01:38:52,040
Speaker 27: just seems to me that he should go ahead and

1874
01:38:52,360 --> 01:38:56,719
Speaker 27: file for a hand count, hand count to paper ballots.

1875
01:38:57,040 --> 01:39:00,280
Speaker 27: I don't trust computers. I just seen where Amazon here

1876
01:39:00,360 --> 01:39:03,360
Speaker 27: a few weeks last week was hacked into because they

1877
01:39:03,400 --> 01:39:05,920
Speaker 27: probably are the best firewall in the world, and yet

1878
01:39:05,960 --> 01:39:08,040
Speaker 27: they were able to people were able to break through that.

1879
01:39:08,600 --> 01:39:11,320
Speaker 27: And I don't trust machines, which are the Italian machines.

1880
01:39:11,439 --> 01:39:13,519
Speaker 27: Was count all our votes that are made in China?

1881
01:39:13,600 --> 01:39:16,439
Speaker 27: I don't trust them. I don't believe that he got

1882
01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:19,720
Speaker 27: that many votes. It can't be that hard to handcount

1883
01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:23,400
Speaker 27: whatever it is, forty thousand paper ballots and make sure

1884
01:39:23,439 --> 01:39:26,040
Speaker 27: that they line up with what the computer tells us

1885
01:39:26,040 --> 01:39:29,120
Speaker 27: who won. I just don't trust these computers anymore. They're

1886
01:39:29,160 --> 01:39:32,280
Speaker 27: easily hacked, and there's just gotta be some way that

1887
01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:35,080
Speaker 27: somebody hacked into this. It's just impossible that he lost

1888
01:39:35,200 --> 01:39:35,360
Speaker 27: like that.

1889
01:39:35,680 --> 01:39:37,800
Speaker 1: I've seen quite a few people comment online along the

1890
01:39:37,840 --> 01:39:39,840
Speaker 1: same lines. I am not a position to know one

1891
01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:43,680
Speaker 1: way or the other. I am just it's standing in

1892
01:39:43,840 --> 01:39:47,120
Speaker 1: awe and disbelief that Christopher didn't get elected. But remember

1893
01:39:47,200 --> 01:39:49,880
Speaker 1: he wasn't on the blue slip, and people mindlessly grab

1894
01:39:50,080 --> 01:39:51,960
Speaker 1: that blue piece of paper and end up doing the

1895
01:39:52,040 --> 01:39:54,599
Speaker 1: same damn thing they do over and over again and again.

1896
01:39:54,640 --> 01:39:56,439
Speaker 1: When you don't have more than four one out of

1897
01:39:56,520 --> 01:39:58,800
Speaker 1: four people showing up to vote, I'm not sure that

1898
01:39:58,840 --> 01:40:03,320
Speaker 1: you need to rig the election. Listen, anybody who's dependent

1899
01:40:03,360 --> 01:40:04,920
Speaker 1: on government's going to come out and vote because they're

1900
01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:07,160
Speaker 1: well lives, I guess, depend on some government program. And

1901
01:40:07,320 --> 01:40:10,679
Speaker 1: all the non government organizations that are funded by city

1902
01:40:10,760 --> 01:40:13,200
Speaker 1: government here in the city of Cincinnati, their lives and

1903
01:40:13,320 --> 01:40:16,880
Speaker 1: their jobs depend upon keeping the same administration. So those

1904
01:40:16,920 --> 01:40:20,560
Speaker 1: are dependent organizations on big government and government handouts. So

1905
01:40:20,680 --> 01:40:22,720
Speaker 1: this is too. Then you get the Teachers' union. Their

1906
01:40:22,840 --> 01:40:25,320
Speaker 1: jobs and their livelihood all depend on some left wing

1907
01:40:25,720 --> 01:40:28,439
Speaker 1: largest of money being thrown at the Cincinni public schools.

1908
01:40:28,840 --> 01:40:30,280
Speaker 1: They're all going to come out and vote for the

1909
01:40:30,320 --> 01:40:32,800
Speaker 1: same slate of candidates. So you get those really big

1910
01:40:32,880 --> 01:40:37,120
Speaker 1: groups of people organized, well communicated well connected, they show

1911
01:40:37,200 --> 01:40:40,519
Speaker 1: up and vote. Where's the other seventy five percent of

1912
01:40:40,560 --> 01:40:45,680
Speaker 1: the electorate checked out? Didn't know this an election, they

1913
01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:48,920
Speaker 1: weren't on the email list. I don't know if there's

1914
01:40:48,920 --> 01:40:51,720
Speaker 1: a problem with the Republican Party or independent organization, or

1915
01:40:51,800 --> 01:40:55,439
Speaker 1: even just some group out there that is against the

1916
01:40:55,560 --> 01:40:59,559
Speaker 1: status quo. They're not coordinated and apparently they don't care

1917
01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:02,800
Speaker 1: enough to think that their vote matters are I'm mistical

1918
01:41:02,800 --> 01:41:04,280
Speaker 1: going to kind of been a loss. Joe, you're next,

1919
01:41:04,320 --> 01:41:06,360
Speaker 1: but I'm sorry, I'm out of time. It's seven forty six,

1920
01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:08,960
Speaker 1: seven fifty one. If if you five KERCD talk station,

1921
01:41:09,200 --> 01:41:11,920
Speaker 1: going to go straight to the phones. Thank you Joe

1922
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:13,760
Speaker 1: for holding over the break. Welcome to the program. It's

1923
01:41:13,760 --> 01:41:14,800
Speaker 1: good to hear from you this morning.

1924
01:41:15,240 --> 01:41:18,519
Speaker 28: Hey morning, Brian, Brian, can you help me understand the

1925
01:41:18,640 --> 01:41:22,680
Speaker 28: difference between socialism, communism, and Marxism.

1926
01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:26,360
Speaker 1: Well, Marxism is a political philosophy that hold from each

1927
01:41:26,400 --> 01:41:28,519
Speaker 1: cordny's ability to each court is of need. It's called

1928
01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:30,760
Speaker 1: Marxism because of course it king's from Carl Marx, but

1929
01:41:30,800 --> 01:41:35,040
Speaker 1: it really is fundamentally communism. So communism is where there

1930
01:41:35,160 --> 01:41:37,759
Speaker 1: is no private ownership of anything. The means of production,

1931
01:41:37,920 --> 01:41:41,920
Speaker 1: that manufacturing, everything is run and owned. Underscore the word

1932
01:41:42,040 --> 01:41:46,080
Speaker 1: owned by government, you are effectively literally working for the government.

1933
01:41:46,120 --> 01:41:48,599
Speaker 1: And a communist philosophy, no one has anything more than

1934
01:41:48,640 --> 01:41:51,599
Speaker 1: any anyone else, which is a revealing of the lie

1935
01:41:51,680 --> 01:41:54,680
Speaker 1: that is communism, because any place that's calls itself communists,

1936
01:41:54,840 --> 01:41:59,000
Speaker 1: there are elites that live lives of luxury and lavish surroundings,

1937
01:41:59,479 --> 01:42:02,439
Speaker 1: not like the average run of the mill breadline in

1938
01:42:02,520 --> 01:42:06,439
Speaker 1: the communist country. Socialism is control the means of production,

1939
01:42:07,200 --> 01:42:09,920
Speaker 1: state ownership in many cases, but it's kind of like

1940
01:42:10,320 --> 01:42:13,599
Speaker 1: a quasi fascist thing where all the terms of your lives,

1941
01:42:13,720 --> 01:42:17,200
Speaker 1: the conditions, the rules are dictated and mandated by government.

1942
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:20,240
Speaker 1: So like in fascism or in some cases socialism, where

1943
01:42:20,439 --> 01:42:22,600
Speaker 1: have you own your own company, you don't get the

1944
01:42:22,680 --> 01:42:25,519
Speaker 1: right to control how it's run. The government tells you

1945
01:42:25,600 --> 01:42:28,920
Speaker 1: how to run it. So obviously top down control of

1946
01:42:29,080 --> 01:42:32,120
Speaker 1: stuff and things to different degrees, that's about as good

1947
01:42:32,160 --> 01:42:33,639
Speaker 1: as I can do in that short period of time.

1948
01:42:33,760 --> 01:42:37,000
Speaker 1: But ownership and control of the means of production is

1949
01:42:37,040 --> 01:42:39,960
Speaker 1: usually what it boils down to. Communism is again in

1950
01:42:40,040 --> 01:42:45,479
Speaker 1: a purest form, it's a religion, it's collective ownership. It's

1951
01:42:45,600 --> 01:42:49,599
Speaker 1: collective work. Everyone works in the commune. You're all supposed

1952
01:42:49,640 --> 01:42:53,360
Speaker 1: to participate to the level you're able to. See Bernie

1953
01:42:53,400 --> 01:42:55,360
Speaker 1: Sanders for a guy who lived on a commune and

1954
01:42:55,439 --> 01:42:57,880
Speaker 1: basically got kicked out because he refused to do any work.

1955
01:42:57,960 --> 01:43:01,240
Speaker 1: That's usually what happens. When you see what happens to communes,

1956
01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:03,879
Speaker 1: they're a reflection of what it actually happens in society

1957
01:43:03,880 --> 01:43:05,880
Speaker 1: when it's unrolled. You got your handful of people that

1958
01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:08,120
Speaker 1: bust their hump in the name of this religion and

1959
01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:11,519
Speaker 1: this working together and sharing the earth, and then a

1960
01:43:11,560 --> 01:43:14,040
Speaker 1: whole bunch of people who just sit around and contemplate

1961
01:43:14,080 --> 01:43:16,240
Speaker 1: their navel like Karl Marx did in the bars over

1962
01:43:16,320 --> 01:43:20,000
Speaker 1: in Germany, and spew political philosophy, but don't lift a

1963
01:43:20,040 --> 01:43:22,679
Speaker 1: finger to help cook or grow food or anything else.

1964
01:43:23,160 --> 01:43:26,000
Speaker 1: That's the collapse. That's always what happens, because no one

1965
01:43:26,160 --> 01:43:28,960
Speaker 1: is willing to lift an extra finger, do extra work

1966
01:43:29,439 --> 01:43:31,840
Speaker 1: because they're not going to get rewarded for it. That's

1967
01:43:32,280 --> 01:43:33,760
Speaker 1: all I can do for you there on that one.

1968
01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:37,080
Speaker 1: Hope I'm close enough. Cribbage, Mike, I understand you're not

1969
01:43:37,120 --> 01:43:39,519
Speaker 1: going to be at listener lunch today. My submarine or friend.

1970
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:40,759
Speaker 1: Thanks for calling.

1971
01:43:40,680 --> 01:43:41,400
Speaker 5: Breaks my heart.

1972
01:43:41,760 --> 01:43:43,760
Speaker 29: Breaks my heart, Brian, but I understand that, actually I

1973
01:43:43,840 --> 01:43:46,320
Speaker 29: think a good game of cribbage might uplift both of

1974
01:43:46,400 --> 01:43:47,280
Speaker 29: our spirits.

1975
01:43:46,960 --> 01:43:47,800
Speaker 2: On a day today.

1976
01:43:47,920 --> 01:43:49,800
Speaker 1: That's one of the reasons I'm stung a little bit

1977
01:43:49,840 --> 01:43:52,320
Speaker 1: more by what you're by your not being at at

1978
01:43:52,360 --> 01:43:55,760
Speaker 1: the Brentwood brew House this afternoon for lunch. But we'll

1979
01:43:55,800 --> 01:43:56,720
Speaker 1: do it again next month.

1980
01:43:57,400 --> 01:44:00,280
Speaker 29: Absolutely absolutely hate Before I get to my and I'd

1981
01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:02,559
Speaker 29: like to give a huge shout out to my team.

1982
01:44:02,640 --> 01:44:05,360
Speaker 29: At twelve yesterday out here in Claremont County, we had

1983
01:44:05,360 --> 01:44:09,040
Speaker 29: another fabulous fifteen hours serve in the public and we

1984
01:44:09,200 --> 01:44:11,439
Speaker 29: actually had one eighteen year old voter. And I tell you,

1985
01:44:11,560 --> 01:44:14,040
Speaker 29: we always make a big to do about that, you know,

1986
01:44:14,240 --> 01:44:16,720
Speaker 29: better than any restaurant does for any birthday. So we

1987
01:44:16,800 --> 01:44:19,000
Speaker 29: always say that, you know, hopefully we'll see you back

1988
01:44:19,040 --> 01:44:23,840
Speaker 29: here many many more times. But based on yesterday, you know.

1989
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:26,439
Speaker 29: And I'd like to use a sports analogy if I could, Brian,

1990
01:44:26,680 --> 01:44:30,439
Speaker 29: of our beloved Cincinnati Bengals. You know, the way that

1991
01:44:30,560 --> 01:44:32,760
Speaker 29: they lost the last two weeks, you know, and then

1992
01:44:33,240 --> 01:44:35,360
Speaker 29: you know, because the defense won't even talk to them,

1993
01:44:35,439 --> 01:44:37,400
Speaker 29: or defensive coach where we know, that's where all the

1994
01:44:37,439 --> 01:44:39,519
Speaker 29: fault is. You know, they go to the offense basically,

1995
01:44:39,600 --> 01:44:42,160
Speaker 29: and then so many words, why didn't we win the game?

1996
01:44:42,200 --> 01:44:44,400
Speaker 29: Why did we win the game? We scored forty two points,

1997
01:44:44,840 --> 01:44:46,600
Speaker 29: you know, And the same thing here. You know, I

1998
01:44:46,720 --> 01:44:49,880
Speaker 29: hear in all the callers voices, but especially Westside, Jim

1999
01:44:49,960 --> 01:44:52,640
Speaker 29: and Andrew and even yourself in me today, I just

2000
01:44:53,040 --> 01:44:55,599
Speaker 29: you're perplexed. Everything was right here in front of us.

2001
01:44:56,040 --> 01:44:59,280
Speaker 29: So it doesn't matter what didn't we do, right, I'd

2002
01:44:59,360 --> 01:45:01,799
Speaker 29: like to stick them microphone. And that's seventy five percent

2003
01:45:01,880 --> 01:45:04,080
Speaker 29: of the electorate. That and that once again, that's just

2004
01:45:04,120 --> 01:45:06,240
Speaker 29: the registered electorate. You know, we know it's always a

2005
01:45:06,240 --> 01:45:08,880
Speaker 29: bigger number that people aren't even registered to vote. Good point,

2006
01:45:09,040 --> 01:45:11,840
Speaker 29: you know, stick a microphone in their face, you know,

2007
01:45:12,160 --> 01:45:13,880
Speaker 29: because once again, you know, and I talked to some

2008
01:45:13,960 --> 01:45:16,040
Speaker 29: of the old timers here out during the Board of Elections,

2009
01:45:16,120 --> 01:45:20,200
Speaker 29: you know that when we had election day, not election month,

2010
01:45:20,720 --> 01:45:25,639
Speaker 29: not no excuse absentee vote applications, you know, and yet

2011
01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:28,080
Speaker 29: we still can only get twenty five percent of the people.

2012
01:45:28,520 --> 01:45:31,360
Speaker 29: And in this election out here in our little deck

2013
01:45:31,439 --> 01:45:33,800
Speaker 29: of the woods, there were there were three issues that

2014
01:45:33,920 --> 01:45:36,920
Speaker 29: are once again going to increase. Well one maintain which

2015
01:45:37,040 --> 01:45:39,360
Speaker 29: was as westside Jim appleypot. You know when you see

2016
01:45:39,400 --> 01:45:41,920
Speaker 29: those signs, your taxes won't go up, Yes, because that

2017
01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:46,000
Speaker 29: a levee was expected to expire. So my taxes will

2018
01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:48,800
Speaker 29: go down if I vote know at all three? All

2019
01:45:48,840 --> 01:45:51,640
Speaker 29: three passed, And God bless our peers, Township, Police and

2020
01:45:51,680 --> 01:45:54,280
Speaker 29: Fire because as this community grows, that's the one that

2021
01:45:54,439 --> 01:45:56,640
Speaker 29: is not really a hard spot because they do need

2022
01:45:56,720 --> 01:45:57,480
Speaker 29: more resources.

2023
01:45:58,160 --> 01:45:59,720
Speaker 2: But once again, when you look what.

2024
01:45:59,720 --> 01:46:01,840
Speaker 29: Happen in Hamilton County, when you look what happened in

2025
01:46:01,920 --> 01:46:04,960
Speaker 29: downtown Cincinnati, when you look what happened nationally, it's just

2026
01:46:05,320 --> 01:46:07,840
Speaker 29: it's right there in front of you, people, get off

2027
01:46:07,920 --> 01:46:09,080
Speaker 29: your butts, go out.

2028
01:46:09,520 --> 01:46:11,840
Speaker 5: Next year may hopefully still wake up call.

2029
01:46:13,000 --> 01:46:15,960
Speaker 1: One can only pray that that is the silver lining

2030
01:46:16,040 --> 01:46:17,920
Speaker 1: in this dark cloud we seem to be facing right now.

2031
01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:20,439
Speaker 1: Wake the hell up and make your voice heard by

2032
01:46:20,560 --> 01:46:22,320
Speaker 1: going to the polls. You have no one to blame

2033
01:46:22,400 --> 01:46:25,080
Speaker 1: for your but yourself, for the direction of this city

2034
01:46:25,320 --> 01:46:29,280
Speaker 1: or county or country is going cribbage. Mike, God bless you, sir,

2035
01:46:29,400 --> 01:46:31,000
Speaker 1: Thank you for your service to our country. And I'll

2036
01:46:31,000 --> 01:46:34,760
Speaker 1: look forward to our crivage game. Last listener lunch December first,

2037
01:46:34,800 --> 01:46:37,600
Speaker 1: Wednesday will be at Price sal Chili. So today I

2038
01:46:37,600 --> 01:46:39,839
Speaker 1: hope you can make it the High Grain Breweries Brentwood

2039
01:46:39,920 --> 01:46:42,240
Speaker 1: location for a listener lunch where you will find me

2040
01:46:42,439 --> 01:46:45,400
Speaker 1: with a beer by here at fifty bout KRC detalk station.

2041
01:46:46,439 --> 01:46:49,600
Speaker 1: Still trying to unpack what happened yesterday, staring in disbelief,

2042
01:46:49,720 --> 01:46:53,000
Speaker 1: most notably the Sinsini City Council election, where you get

2043
01:46:53,080 --> 01:46:57,200
Speaker 1: the exact same thing again, sadly without the benefit of

2044
01:46:57,280 --> 01:46:59,760
Speaker 1: Christopher Smithman. So bummed that it's one of the most

2045
01:47:00,680 --> 01:47:03,160
Speaker 1: difficult things to have to behold this morning when I

2046
01:47:03,200 --> 01:47:05,000
Speaker 1: was looking at the election results that Christopher didn't come

2047
01:47:05,040 --> 01:47:08,639
Speaker 1: out even close to on top. Christopher Smithman, my dear friend,

2048
01:47:08,720 --> 01:47:10,759
Speaker 1: my brother. Welcome to the Morning Show, and I appreciate

2049
01:47:10,760 --> 01:47:13,560
Speaker 1: your willingness to call in today, and I want to

2050
01:47:13,680 --> 01:47:16,040
Speaker 1: apologize to you. I mean, you're on the program every week.

2051
01:47:16,120 --> 01:47:17,880
Speaker 1: I do everything I can to try to help you out,

2052
01:47:17,920 --> 01:47:20,880
Speaker 1: and I hope that your presence on my program didn't

2053
01:47:20,880 --> 01:47:22,599
Speaker 1: have any impact on the outcome of the election.

2054
01:47:22,760 --> 01:47:27,800
Speaker 14: Sir, well, first, let me say thank you for giving

2055
01:47:27,840 --> 01:47:32,639
Speaker 14: me a voice and an opportunity to reflect on last

2056
01:47:32,720 --> 01:47:36,720
Speaker 14: night's results. I really want to just start with conceding

2057
01:47:36,800 --> 01:47:37,280
Speaker 14: the election.

2058
01:47:38,320 --> 01:47:39,080
Speaker 2: So I didn't win.

2059
01:47:39,640 --> 01:47:43,040
Speaker 14: I think it's important for all of those citizens who

2060
01:47:43,120 --> 01:47:47,160
Speaker 14: voted for me, who were out knocking on doors and

2061
01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:50,439
Speaker 14: doing all the things that they could do for our

2062
01:47:50,520 --> 01:47:53,160
Speaker 14: campaign to win. For the good of the city. It's

2063
01:47:53,240 --> 01:47:55,800
Speaker 14: important that you know at the end of election, whether

2064
01:47:55,880 --> 01:47:59,080
Speaker 14: you win or you lose, that you always do it

2065
01:47:59,160 --> 01:48:03,080
Speaker 14: with class. And so this is my public statement with

2066
01:48:03,240 --> 01:48:06,160
Speaker 14: you a friend on the station that I come on

2067
01:48:06,400 --> 01:48:10,960
Speaker 14: every Monday at seven twenty to come back, concede the election,

2068
01:48:11,920 --> 01:48:15,320
Speaker 14: and then talk about the future. So the results are

2069
01:48:15,400 --> 01:48:19,320
Speaker 14: not what I've wanted them to be, and anytime you

2070
01:48:19,360 --> 01:48:23,240
Speaker 14: don't win, it's difficult, but you've got to move forward.

2071
01:48:23,800 --> 01:48:26,200
Speaker 14: And what I will also say is that you know,

2072
01:48:26,439 --> 01:48:31,200
Speaker 14: elections have consequences, and I'm betting on you know, I'm

2073
01:48:31,240 --> 01:48:34,680
Speaker 14: betting on the city. I want the city to be positive.

2074
01:48:34,920 --> 01:48:36,439
Speaker 14: That's why I have my name on the ballot. And

2075
01:48:36,520 --> 01:48:40,280
Speaker 14: I'm still as you do, Brian Thomas, every week, every

2076
01:48:40,439 --> 01:48:44,639
Speaker 14: day you're here promoting Cincinnati. You want the best for Cincinnati.

2077
01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:48,040
Speaker 14: You clearly understand the core. If it's not working well

2078
01:48:48,160 --> 01:48:50,040
Speaker 14: impacts all of us, and I feel the same way.

2079
01:48:50,160 --> 01:48:52,599
Speaker 14: So you know, even though I did not support this mayor,

2080
01:48:53,479 --> 01:48:55,720
Speaker 14: did not support the majority of this council, the people

2081
01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:59,880
Speaker 14: who spoken and I'm going to support them just like

2082
01:49:00,040 --> 01:49:03,040
Speaker 14: I would want them to support me or support any

2083
01:49:03,080 --> 01:49:05,680
Speaker 14: other person who was elected at the federal, state, and

2084
01:49:05,760 --> 01:49:09,000
Speaker 14: local level. That's what that's what you do when you

2085
01:49:09,120 --> 01:49:12,200
Speaker 14: put your name on the ballot and you're running. Having

2086
01:49:12,320 --> 01:49:17,519
Speaker 14: said that, you know, my concerns remain the same. Brian Thomas,

2087
01:49:17,640 --> 01:49:20,920
Speaker 14: I'm worried about the crime. I mean, seven people last

2088
01:49:21,080 --> 01:49:24,920
Speaker 14: weekend were shot. That's reality, four of them downtown. I

2089
01:49:25,000 --> 01:49:28,560
Speaker 14: feel terrible for the citizens of OTR and Mohawk and

2090
01:49:28,600 --> 01:49:33,880
Speaker 14: who have invested so much money in their downtown core.

2091
01:49:34,479 --> 01:49:38,320
Speaker 14: People like Jeff Ruby who's been a staple there and

2092
01:49:38,560 --> 01:49:42,439
Speaker 14: what his business is experiencing. And people who own Crew Tower,

2093
01:49:42,920 --> 01:49:45,080
Speaker 14: you know what's going on with them are Fountain Square.

2094
01:49:45,160 --> 01:49:47,600
Speaker 14: You just can't have people shooting on Fountain Square. So

2095
01:49:47,680 --> 01:49:51,200
Speaker 14: the nine people that were elected in this mayor, nothing

2096
01:49:51,240 --> 01:49:53,280
Speaker 14: has changed. They're going to have to come up with

2097
01:49:53,360 --> 01:49:56,320
Speaker 14: a better plan in order to deal with the high

2098
01:49:56,439 --> 01:49:59,960
Speaker 14: levels of crime in our city. If people don't feel

2099
01:50:00,080 --> 01:50:02,920
Speaker 14: safe in the core Brian Thomas. I don't think I'm exaggerating.

2100
01:50:03,280 --> 01:50:05,280
Speaker 14: They're not going to come downtown and they're not going

2101
01:50:05,360 --> 01:50:08,120
Speaker 14: to support those businesses. I want to be a force,

2102
01:50:08,880 --> 01:50:12,360
Speaker 14: you know, of reason and common sense, right and cheerleading

2103
01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:15,280
Speaker 14: for our downtown. I want people to come downtown. I

2104
01:50:15,400 --> 01:50:19,000
Speaker 14: want them to spend their money our regional partners Brian Thomas.

2105
01:50:20,000 --> 01:50:23,160
Speaker 14: But I can't do that in good faith if I'm

2106
01:50:23,280 --> 01:50:25,960
Speaker 14: uncomfortable being in that space. I don't want also don't

2107
01:50:25,960 --> 01:50:27,560
Speaker 14: want to be a hypocrite, and I don't want to

2108
01:50:27,600 --> 01:50:30,200
Speaker 14: be a liar. So that's that's not who I am.

2109
01:50:30,360 --> 01:50:30,840
Speaker 2: So I am.

2110
01:50:31,080 --> 01:50:33,960
Speaker 14: I remain concerned, and I hope that the team that

2111
01:50:34,160 --> 01:50:37,920
Speaker 14: the citizens of Cincinnati elected when they voted down this

2112
01:50:38,040 --> 01:50:42,439
Speaker 14: sample ballot, I hope that they are excited about those

2113
01:50:42,520 --> 01:50:45,360
Speaker 14: who were elected last night. I certainly will offer my

2114
01:50:45,520 --> 01:50:48,439
Speaker 14: support to all nine of them and this mayor. But

2115
01:50:48,520 --> 01:50:50,400
Speaker 14: at the end of the day, we've got to get

2116
01:50:50,479 --> 01:50:51,120
Speaker 14: good results.

2117
01:50:52,000 --> 01:50:55,560
Speaker 1: Do you expect okay of late And I will emphasize

2118
01:50:55,560 --> 01:50:57,880
Speaker 1: it's only been recently, and I've made this common quite

2119
01:50:57,880 --> 01:50:59,880
Speaker 1: a few times leading up to the race, that I

2120
01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:02,400
Speaker 1: have to have Parvo has learned something because he did

2121
01:51:02,520 --> 01:51:05,840
Speaker 1: take sort of a turn in his attitude toward crime.

2122
01:51:06,240 --> 01:51:07,920
Speaker 1: He was in a state of denial and kept telling

2123
01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:09,880
Speaker 1: people that no, no, no, crime isn't as bad as

2124
01:51:09,920 --> 01:51:12,320
Speaker 1: you say it is. It's not. Obviously that was a

2125
01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:16,679
Speaker 1: real issue in the race. He started moving towards supporting police.

2126
01:51:16,760 --> 01:51:19,600
Speaker 1: He turned the idea of green projects, which was his

2127
01:51:19,720 --> 01:51:22,679
Speaker 1: number one priority, changed out priorities, then said no, crime

2128
01:51:22,800 --> 01:51:25,400
Speaker 1: and public safety is my number one priority and will

2129
01:51:25,439 --> 01:51:27,840
Speaker 1: be my number one focus. He did take at least

2130
01:51:28,080 --> 01:51:30,439
Speaker 1: some of the existence offered by Governor de Wine, not

2131
01:51:30,640 --> 01:51:33,439
Speaker 1: enough of it, baby, but took some of it. I

2132
01:51:33,479 --> 01:51:35,200
Speaker 1: don't know what the story is with Police Chief Dji,

2133
01:51:35,240 --> 01:51:37,200
Speaker 1: but do you think he's learned anything at least on

2134
01:51:37,280 --> 01:51:40,759
Speaker 1: the topic of crime, that he will take a keener

2135
01:51:40,840 --> 01:51:43,760
Speaker 1: interest and will endeavor to support the police along the

2136
01:51:43,800 --> 01:51:47,360
Speaker 1: lines of the way you would and actively engage police

2137
01:51:47,400 --> 01:51:50,599
Speaker 1: officers and rebuild the ranks. Or is it just well,

2138
01:51:50,640 --> 01:51:52,599
Speaker 1: I got reelected, I'm gonna go down the same path.

2139
01:51:52,920 --> 01:51:54,559
Speaker 1: What is your impression the way he's going to.

2140
01:51:54,600 --> 01:51:58,439
Speaker 14: Go, Well, we'll know in the next week. I mean

2141
01:51:58,479 --> 01:52:00,600
Speaker 14: it's not going to take a long long time. I

2142
01:52:00,720 --> 01:52:06,280
Speaker 14: think an election like last night reinforces to him in

2143
01:52:06,400 --> 01:52:09,479
Speaker 14: his mind, and he's on the right track. That's what

2144
01:52:09,600 --> 01:52:13,559
Speaker 14: I believe. He got the council that he wanted. He won,

2145
01:52:14,880 --> 01:52:19,400
Speaker 14: you know, decisively, his his mamurial race, and I think

2146
01:52:19,479 --> 01:52:22,720
Speaker 14: he is affirmed in his in his tenure. He's a

2147
01:52:22,800 --> 01:52:27,080
Speaker 14: tenured UH member of in the mayor's office, which means

2148
01:52:27,120 --> 01:52:30,479
Speaker 14: he's not never gonna run for re election again. You know,

2149
01:52:30,560 --> 01:52:32,760
Speaker 14: he's he's he will serve out an eight year term.

2150
01:52:33,160 --> 01:52:36,479
Speaker 14: So I think he's more empowered than ever to do

2151
01:52:36,960 --> 01:52:40,240
Speaker 14: whatever his agenda is in here in his mind. We

2152
01:52:40,320 --> 01:52:43,600
Speaker 14: will see in the next week, because I think we

2153
01:52:43,720 --> 01:52:45,920
Speaker 14: have a we have a tough weekend coming up. You know,

2154
01:52:45,960 --> 01:52:49,080
Speaker 14: the weather is going to be reasonably in warm, and

2155
01:52:49,200 --> 01:52:51,920
Speaker 14: what we have seen in those weekends is we've seen

2156
01:52:52,160 --> 01:52:55,360
Speaker 14: a spike in in gun violence. Is he going to

2157
01:52:55,439 --> 01:52:58,000
Speaker 14: address the business in the downtown where they were four

2158
01:52:58,040 --> 01:53:00,519
Speaker 14: people shot? You know, is he gonna make a public

2159
01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:04,360
Speaker 14: statement saying he's going to get that under control now,

2160
01:53:04,520 --> 01:53:06,880
Speaker 14: which means you've got a hold of hearing. You've got

2161
01:53:07,000 --> 01:53:09,000
Speaker 14: to ask the owner to come in. You've got to

2162
01:53:09,120 --> 01:53:12,679
Speaker 14: explain to those who live around that business that they're

2163
01:53:12,720 --> 01:53:14,840
Speaker 14: going to be safe. It's not like Brian Thomas, you

2164
01:53:14,880 --> 01:53:17,799
Speaker 14: can wait a week. Four people were shot right across

2165
01:53:17,880 --> 01:53:20,479
Speaker 14: the street where people live, and a gun was found

2166
01:53:20,560 --> 01:53:23,280
Speaker 14: in the open after that shooting. So there are a

2167
01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:26,280
Speaker 14: number of things that he can signal and do that

2168
01:53:26,479 --> 01:53:28,960
Speaker 14: will reassure us that he has learned something. I'm not

2169
01:53:29,120 --> 01:53:31,479
Speaker 14: the mayor. I will say, we're going to know in

2170
01:53:31,560 --> 01:53:33,760
Speaker 14: the next in the next week, let me let me,

2171
01:53:33,960 --> 01:53:35,280
Speaker 14: let me be cause I know, I know we don't

2172
01:53:35,280 --> 01:53:35,920
Speaker 14: have a lot of time.

2173
01:53:37,720 --> 01:53:41,160
Speaker 2: You're fine, but here, but here's what I want.

2174
01:53:41,200 --> 01:53:42,920
Speaker 14: I want to say, Man, I have I had so

2175
01:53:43,040 --> 01:53:45,640
Speaker 14: many people out there who voted for me, and I

2176
01:53:45,720 --> 01:53:48,400
Speaker 14: don't I don't want them to give up, right I

2177
01:53:48,680 --> 01:53:50,599
Speaker 14: I live in the city of Cincinnati. I don't want

2178
01:53:50,640 --> 01:53:52,320
Speaker 14: to give up. And I want us to continue to

2179
01:53:52,400 --> 01:53:55,920
Speaker 14: bet on on Cincinnati. So we're gonna have to give

2180
01:53:56,000 --> 01:53:59,920
Speaker 14: this council and this mayor the room to be success

2181
01:54:00,400 --> 01:54:03,360
Speaker 14: and offered them the support that whatever they feel like

2182
01:54:03,400 --> 01:54:06,320
Speaker 14: they need. Now, that doesn't mean that's an open checkbook.

2183
01:54:06,439 --> 01:54:10,080
Speaker 14: As things go in the direction, We're gonna know, Brian Thomas,

2184
01:54:10,640 --> 01:54:13,000
Speaker 14: whether that happens or a doesn't. But I want those

2185
01:54:13,080 --> 01:54:16,200
Speaker 14: who supported me, who I love and they love me

2186
01:54:17,640 --> 01:54:21,000
Speaker 14: to know that I'm still in the game. I'm still

2187
01:54:21,280 --> 01:54:25,040
Speaker 14: betting yes on Cincinnati, and that's what we're all going

2188
01:54:25,120 --> 01:54:27,000
Speaker 14: to have to do in order to move our our

2189
01:54:27,080 --> 01:54:29,679
Speaker 14: city forward. That's really really important. These losses are tough.

2190
01:54:30,120 --> 01:54:34,160
Speaker 14: I mean, people were very emotional about about the loss.

2191
01:54:34,520 --> 01:54:36,120
Speaker 14: But at the end of the day, man, we gotta

2192
01:54:36,240 --> 01:54:38,480
Speaker 14: we got to put our foot forward the next day

2193
01:54:39,240 --> 01:54:41,680
Speaker 14: in our city to make it better. I think you

2194
01:54:41,840 --> 01:54:45,320
Speaker 14: asked one of the most profound questions. Has this mayor

2195
01:54:45,440 --> 01:54:49,040
Speaker 14: learned anything. We're gonna know in the next week. Right,

2196
01:54:49,480 --> 01:54:52,040
Speaker 14: if he goes, if he starts going to roll calls,

2197
01:54:52,560 --> 01:54:56,800
Speaker 14: doing ride alongs, going after the recruitment, we've got still

2198
01:54:56,840 --> 01:55:00,680
Speaker 14: one hundred and eighty two hundred officers, and your sister

2199
01:55:00,800 --> 01:55:04,840
Speaker 14: went through drops, so you understand if he's not about

2200
01:55:04,920 --> 01:55:08,280
Speaker 14: retention of those officers, if he's not about bringing in

2201
01:55:08,440 --> 01:55:13,800
Speaker 14: aggressively recruit classes, you know, moving away from ribbon cutting

2202
01:55:13,880 --> 01:55:16,760
Speaker 14: and really rolling up your sleeves and saying we've got

2203
01:55:16,880 --> 01:55:20,920
Speaker 14: to attack crime. We're not going to coddle criminals. Right,

2204
01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:24,840
Speaker 14: We're gonna think about those who are living and want

2205
01:55:24,920 --> 01:55:27,600
Speaker 14: to live in a safe city. And it's a non

2206
01:55:27,760 --> 01:55:31,520
Speaker 14: partisan issue like safety is not something whereas Democrat or

2207
01:55:31,640 --> 01:55:36,040
Speaker 14: Independent are Republican. Everybody deserves to be safe. And I

2208
01:55:36,200 --> 01:55:38,960
Speaker 14: think for members of council who might be listening, or

2209
01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:41,800
Speaker 14: their offices, or maybe somebody in the mayor's office, that

2210
01:55:42,000 --> 01:55:45,280
Speaker 14: is your number one responsibility is keeping us safe. Everything

2211
01:55:45,360 --> 01:55:48,320
Speaker 14: else falls under that. And I ran on that, and

2212
01:55:48,400 --> 01:55:50,280
Speaker 14: that's what I would be doing today. And I hope

2213
01:55:50,280 --> 01:55:52,840
Speaker 14: that they take that banner very very seriously. I don't

2214
01:55:52,880 --> 01:55:56,920
Speaker 14: want to see any other Cincinnati people die in our

2215
01:55:57,000 --> 01:55:58,600
Speaker 14: streets unnecessarily.

2216
01:55:58,960 --> 01:56:01,560
Speaker 1: Amen to that all day. Let me ask you this, Christopher,

2217
01:56:01,560 --> 01:56:05,920
Speaker 1: because voter turnout, man, This was such an important election

2218
01:56:06,080 --> 01:56:08,520
Speaker 1: for the city. So many issues, I mean, the whole

2219
01:56:08,600 --> 01:56:12,200
Speaker 1: violent crime component, the idea of Hyde Park Square, Bond Hill,

2220
01:56:12,280 --> 01:56:14,560
Speaker 1: other neighborhoods being ignored at least in terms of the

2221
01:56:14,600 --> 01:56:16,480
Speaker 1: direction they want to go in far as far as development.

2222
01:56:16,560 --> 01:56:19,240
Speaker 1: That was a critical issue. Everybody was talking about the

2223
01:56:19,320 --> 01:56:23,480
Speaker 1: beatdown at Fourth and Elm, the whole issue with the chief.

2224
01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean, lots and lots of really important things that

2225
01:56:28,040 --> 01:56:31,240
Speaker 1: should have, in my estimation, driven people to the polls.

2226
01:56:31,760 --> 01:56:35,200
Speaker 1: What do you got eight percent of the two hundred

2227
01:56:35,200 --> 01:56:38,760
Speaker 1: and twenty one thousand registered voters. We only got sixty

2228
01:56:38,840 --> 01:56:43,400
Speaker 1: six thousand show up. Why is that? Is it apathy?

2229
01:56:43,640 --> 01:56:47,480
Speaker 1: Is it ignorance? Christopher? That just drives me crazy, because

2230
01:56:47,480 --> 01:56:49,720
Speaker 1: I've voted in every election since I've been able to vote.

2231
01:56:51,640 --> 01:56:54,760
Speaker 14: I think it's apathy. I think that the two party

2232
01:56:54,880 --> 01:57:00,400
Speaker 14: system has us very focused, hyper focused on national elections.

2233
01:57:00,480 --> 01:57:02,680
Speaker 14: Is where they spend their money. It's where they do

2234
01:57:02,800 --> 01:57:06,600
Speaker 14: their voter get out campaigns. You'll see that next year

2235
01:57:06,680 --> 01:57:09,400
Speaker 14: in the two year elections. Oh yeah, when Congress is

2236
01:57:09,440 --> 01:57:12,720
Speaker 14: fighting overseats. You won't There'll be so much money spent

2237
01:57:13,480 --> 01:57:16,400
Speaker 14: on that election and people will be so emotionally charged

2238
01:57:16,440 --> 01:57:18,360
Speaker 14: by the time we get to November of next year,

2239
01:57:18,920 --> 01:57:21,080
Speaker 14: you know, as these two parties fight it out in

2240
01:57:21,120 --> 01:57:23,280
Speaker 14: the middle, we're in the middle of a shutdown, a

2241
01:57:23,400 --> 01:57:25,680
Speaker 14: federal shutdown that I've never seen before. I've never seen

2242
01:57:25,840 --> 01:57:29,160
Speaker 14: any impact like this at the at the federal level.

2243
01:57:29,520 --> 01:57:32,320
Speaker 14: So the answer to your to your question is you

2244
01:57:32,440 --> 01:57:35,400
Speaker 14: and I understand that local elections are probably the most

2245
01:57:35,440 --> 01:57:38,240
Speaker 14: important election, the one we had last night, But the

2246
01:57:38,360 --> 01:57:41,160
Speaker 14: two party system has us focused on the two year

2247
01:57:41,200 --> 01:57:44,280
Speaker 14: election next year, and then they'll have us focusing on

2248
01:57:44,400 --> 01:57:49,240
Speaker 14: the presidential election. We as citizens have to understand politics

2249
01:57:49,280 --> 01:57:53,400
Speaker 14: are local, and yesterday's election was the most important election

2250
01:57:53,520 --> 01:57:56,120
Speaker 14: in life because the impact their daily life. They're trash

2251
01:57:56,200 --> 01:57:59,920
Speaker 14: picked up, their roads, their road repair. There's snow removal,

2252
01:58:00,040 --> 01:58:02,440
Speaker 14: which we're going to have to deal with our police

2253
01:58:02,520 --> 01:58:06,040
Speaker 14: and fire. I mean, that's where the rubber meets the road.

2254
01:58:06,360 --> 01:58:10,400
Speaker 14: And for whatever reason, citizens don't connect with that because

2255
01:58:10,440 --> 01:58:13,960
Speaker 14: the two party system is leading them and they're pushing

2256
01:58:14,040 --> 01:58:16,320
Speaker 14: them in a direction, and they're not out there thinking

2257
01:58:16,400 --> 01:58:19,520
Speaker 14: for themselves critically saying, hey man, that's the election I

2258
01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:22,240
Speaker 14: should be participating in. Think that's I don't think it's.

2259
01:58:22,560 --> 01:58:24,920
Speaker 14: I don't think it's as much as of appity. I

2260
01:58:24,960 --> 01:58:27,800
Speaker 14: think it's the two party system isn't spending the money

2261
01:58:28,080 --> 01:58:29,840
Speaker 14: to get their people out to vote. And this is

2262
01:58:30,440 --> 01:58:33,360
Speaker 14: a little cynical on my part because I think the

2263
01:58:33,520 --> 01:58:36,520
Speaker 14: system like the one here where the Democrats are running ting,

2264
01:58:37,040 --> 01:58:41,200
Speaker 14: they don't necessarily want that voter turn out. They like

2265
01:58:41,480 --> 01:58:44,160
Speaker 14: holding the power and controlling it. The mayor says, I

2266
01:58:44,240 --> 01:58:46,800
Speaker 14: have the mayor's office, I have all nine members of council,

2267
01:58:47,520 --> 01:58:50,160
Speaker 14: I control the whole board. I'm going to be able

2268
01:58:50,200 --> 01:58:51,080
Speaker 14: to do whatever I want.

2269
01:58:51,120 --> 01:58:51,240
Speaker 2: To do.

2270
01:58:51,600 --> 01:58:54,720
Speaker 14: I don't want two hundred thousand people showing up in vote.

2271
01:58:55,680 --> 01:58:59,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, because of course we all understand the whole concept

2272
01:58:59,280 --> 01:59:02,680
Speaker 1: of non government organizations and the political activism that is

2273
01:59:02,880 --> 01:59:05,840
Speaker 1: just seeps throughout all of them. He's going to get

2274
01:59:05,880 --> 01:59:07,560
Speaker 1: all of those folks. They're the ones that get the

2275
01:59:07,600 --> 01:59:11,080
Speaker 1: money from the city taxpayers, so they're been NGOs themselves

2276
01:59:11,160 --> 01:59:12,600
Speaker 1: and all of their friends. You know, we need to

2277
01:59:12,600 --> 01:59:16,240
Speaker 1: support this. The teachers' union also benefits from the government

2278
01:59:16,280 --> 01:59:18,480
Speaker 1: of the city taxpayers. They're going to show up in force,

2279
01:59:18,840 --> 01:59:21,760
Speaker 1: so you can count on that. I'd say twenty five

2280
01:59:21,800 --> 01:59:26,560
Speaker 1: percent of very prominent backers of the administration because they've

2281
01:59:26,600 --> 01:59:28,080
Speaker 1: got their hand in the cookie jar. They want to

2282
01:59:28,120 --> 01:59:31,400
Speaker 1: continue what they're getting from government showing up. But what

2283
01:59:31,560 --> 01:59:34,800
Speaker 1: of everybody else? That just is the puzzling thing, Christopher.

2284
01:59:34,960 --> 01:59:36,840
Speaker 1: You can see it, you can sense it, you can

2285
01:59:36,920 --> 01:59:39,400
Speaker 1: feel it. You've seen prior elections. You know it's going

2286
01:59:39,480 --> 01:59:41,600
Speaker 1: to end up being a twenty five percent. Ask Sherry

2287
01:59:41,640 --> 01:59:45,720
Speaker 1: Poland a year after year after year, election after election, Christopher,

2288
01:59:45,960 --> 01:59:47,720
Speaker 1: it's just this mind boggling to me.

2289
01:59:49,800 --> 01:59:55,520
Speaker 14: It is, And I tell you, I really want to

2290
01:59:55,680 --> 01:59:59,640
Speaker 14: just extend my heart out to Liz Keaty Brian Thomas.

2291
02:00:00,040 --> 02:00:03,360
Speaker 14: As we talk about this, and and Uh and Lakida Cole.

2292
02:00:03,720 --> 02:00:06,720
Speaker 14: I mean, the both of these women won a Republican

2293
02:00:06,800 --> 02:00:09,440
Speaker 14: won a Democrat. They both worked incredibly hard.

2294
02:00:10,560 --> 02:00:11,000
Speaker 7: I saw that.

2295
02:00:11,080 --> 02:00:14,920
Speaker 14: I saw their literature everywhere. You know, they could not

2296
02:00:15,400 --> 02:00:19,640
Speaker 14: just like me, Uh, make that leap over voting for

2297
02:00:19,840 --> 02:00:23,280
Speaker 14: nine and the simple ballot that citizens seem to be

2298
02:00:23,520 --> 02:00:26,640
Speaker 14: just herded to. And so they're down there thinking they're

2299
02:00:26,680 --> 02:00:28,880
Speaker 14: doing something. I'm voting for nine people. I'm just down

2300
02:00:28,920 --> 02:00:31,400
Speaker 14: there voting gily. I would tell you, if you ask

2301
02:00:31,480 --> 02:00:35,400
Speaker 14: people who did they vote for, what do you know

2302
02:00:35,480 --> 02:00:38,360
Speaker 14: about them? What were what are their public policy positions?

2303
02:00:39,120 --> 02:00:41,840
Speaker 14: Most of them have no idea. They just took a

2304
02:00:41,920 --> 02:00:46,680
Speaker 14: ballot and voted for somebody, and and the elections truly

2305
02:00:46,720 --> 02:00:51,560
Speaker 14: have consequences. But my my love and my respect go

2306
02:00:51,720 --> 02:00:56,400
Speaker 14: out to UH Council, former council members Live Keating and

2307
02:00:56,600 --> 02:01:01,520
Speaker 14: Lakda Cole. And I also want to knowledge of Corey Bowman,

2308
02:01:02,120 --> 02:01:05,560
Speaker 14: who ran from mayor to the public. You know, the

2309
02:01:05,680 --> 02:01:10,000
Speaker 14: Democrats made this about Macca because they wanted to divide us.

2310
02:01:10,120 --> 02:01:13,839
Speaker 14: They made it about race because they wanted to divide

2311
02:01:13,880 --> 02:01:16,480
Speaker 14: us racially. That is how they keep their power.

2312
02:01:16,200 --> 02:01:16,960
Speaker 2: And hold on to it.

2313
02:01:17,080 --> 02:01:20,160
Speaker 14: That's what this has unfortunately come down to in politics.

2314
02:01:20,720 --> 02:01:22,440
Speaker 14: But Corey Bowman didn't have to go out there and

2315
02:01:22,480 --> 02:01:25,240
Speaker 14: put his name on anything. He was living a great

2316
02:01:25,280 --> 02:01:27,960
Speaker 14: life with his beautiful wife Jordan, and had a baby

2317
02:01:28,000 --> 02:01:30,320
Speaker 14: on the campaign tril. He his wife had a baby

2318
02:01:30,360 --> 02:01:33,760
Speaker 14: on the campaign trail. He's a good guy with a

2319
02:01:33,880 --> 02:01:37,640
Speaker 14: good heart. And what they did was, you know, kind

2320
02:01:37,680 --> 02:01:41,000
Speaker 14: of marginalized him by saying, you know, in a democratic city,

2321
02:01:41,080 --> 02:01:45,800
Speaker 14: this is JD. Vance's brother. Right, if we're thinking logically, right,

2322
02:01:46,360 --> 02:01:50,720
Speaker 14: electing a mayor whose brother is the vice President of

2323
02:01:50,760 --> 02:01:53,280
Speaker 14: the United States of America is good for the city

2324
02:01:53,320 --> 02:01:58,640
Speaker 14: of Cincinnati. Logically, who actually might end up being the

2325
02:01:58,800 --> 02:02:02,360
Speaker 14: president of the United States of America in a four

2326
02:02:02,440 --> 02:02:06,840
Speaker 14: year term. But we're so hyper about who his brother

2327
02:02:07,120 --> 02:02:10,200
Speaker 14: is and what his political party is, we're willing to

2328
02:02:10,280 --> 02:02:14,520
Speaker 14: vote against him and then accept the bloodshed. That is

2329
02:02:14,640 --> 02:02:17,320
Speaker 14: what is so amazing to me. Meaning at the end

2330
02:02:17,320 --> 02:02:20,640
Speaker 14: of the day, I need the results. We've got black

2331
02:02:20,720 --> 02:02:25,040
Speaker 14: and brown people killing themselves on a weekly basis, and

2332
02:02:25,360 --> 02:02:28,160
Speaker 14: there seems to be no answers coming from city hall.

2333
02:02:28,840 --> 02:02:33,040
Speaker 14: And what Corey Bowman was offering was a difference, a change,

2334
02:02:34,240 --> 02:02:37,720
Speaker 14: and so if the things continue to happen Brian Thomas

2335
02:02:37,800 --> 02:02:41,720
Speaker 14: the way they have been happening, it's really difficult to complain.

2336
02:02:42,880 --> 02:02:46,600
Speaker 14: You know, you voted for that, that's what we ultimately get.

2337
02:02:46,680 --> 02:02:48,440
Speaker 14: And so I want to extend my love to him

2338
02:02:49,000 --> 02:02:52,160
Speaker 14: and to his lovely wife Jordan and therefore children. There

2339
02:02:52,240 --> 02:02:55,360
Speaker 14: was a great sacrifice for them, and I want him

2340
02:02:55,400 --> 02:02:58,200
Speaker 14: to hear my voice and his whole team that went

2341
02:02:58,240 --> 02:03:00,720
Speaker 14: out there and worked as hard as they that he

2342
02:03:01,480 --> 02:03:05,000
Speaker 14: has earned my respect for him, and I will continue

2343
02:03:05,040 --> 02:03:08,280
Speaker 14: to support him whatever he decides to do next. And

2344
02:03:08,400 --> 02:03:10,240
Speaker 14: it's really hard to put your name on a ballot

2345
02:03:10,600 --> 02:03:11,560
Speaker 14: and and not win.

2346
02:03:11,880 --> 02:03:14,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, in the face of the tremendous uphill challenge he

2347
02:03:14,360 --> 02:03:17,240
Speaker 1: knew he was facing. He ran a strong race, Christopher Smith,

2348
02:03:17,240 --> 02:03:18,920
Speaker 1: and will be talking on Monday, right, thank you.

2349
02:03:20,120 --> 02:03:23,000
Speaker 14: We will be talking on Monday. Brother, if you'll, if you,

2350
02:03:23,160 --> 02:03:24,000
Speaker 14: if you will have me.

2351
02:03:24,080 --> 02:03:26,440
Speaker 1: Dude, if you if you said I'm not doing it anymore,

2352
02:03:26,600 --> 02:03:30,200
Speaker 1: you would break my heart. Monday seven twenty the Smither event. God,

2353
02:03:30,240 --> 02:03:31,800
Speaker 1: bless you, Christopher, Thanks for calling in.

2354
02:03:32,080 --> 02:03:32,400
Speaker 7: Blessed you.

2355
02:03:32,520 --> 02:03:32,800
Speaker 2: Taking care.

2356
02:03:32,920 --> 02:03:35,000
Speaker 1: Condolence is on the loss you should be at the

2357
02:03:35,120 --> 02:03:37,240
Speaker 1: top of the list. God bless you. Eight twenty two

2358
02:03:38,040 --> 02:03:40,360
Speaker 1: the talk station Judge of Polton is up next.

2359
02:03:41,080 --> 02:03:45,040
Speaker 28: This is fifty five KRC and iHeartRadio Steam, as is

2360
02:03:45,120 --> 02:03:46,120
Speaker 28: the case, and thank god.

2361
02:03:46,200 --> 02:03:48,240
Speaker 1: At eight thirty, every one say we could hear from

2362
02:03:48,320 --> 02:03:52,560
Speaker 1: the Judge. Annapolitano. Heather is in Detroit, Judge Judge. Apparently

2363
02:03:52,960 --> 02:03:56,000
Speaker 1: Chuck Ingram's on vacation, so he didn't get your personalized

2364
02:03:56,600 --> 02:04:00,120
Speaker 1: introduction today. Welcome back your honor. It's great, heavy you

2365
02:04:00,200 --> 02:04:00,840
Speaker 1: on as always.

2366
02:04:01,040 --> 02:04:03,800
Speaker 22: Thank you for letting me know before I complained bitterly.

2367
02:04:04,440 --> 02:04:07,240
Speaker 1: I know we all missed Chuck when he's not around,

2368
02:04:07,440 --> 02:04:09,720
Speaker 1: but at least you know he's alive and he gets

2369
02:04:09,760 --> 02:04:11,200
Speaker 1: a vacation because that's.

2370
02:04:11,200 --> 02:04:14,280
Speaker 22: And Chuck, if you're listening, you are missed.

2371
02:04:14,600 --> 02:04:17,840
Speaker 1: Yes he is, Yes he is. Judge Jenna Politano, Oh

2372
02:04:17,920 --> 02:04:20,480
Speaker 1: my god, trying to unpackage again yesterday's election. We had

2373
02:04:20,480 --> 02:04:22,520
Speaker 1: a real terrible outcome here in the city of Cincinnati.

2374
02:04:22,600 --> 02:04:26,160
Speaker 1: Generally speaking, looking at New Jersey and Virginia didn't go

2375
02:04:26,240 --> 02:04:27,960
Speaker 1: the way that we were hoping. But they didn't. Those

2376
02:04:28,040 --> 02:04:31,200
Speaker 1: races didn't surprise me. The whole Mom Donni thing has

2377
02:04:31,280 --> 02:04:34,600
Speaker 1: really got me. I just don't understand it. I hate

2378
02:04:34,640 --> 02:04:36,360
Speaker 1: to hit you over the head with politics like this,

2379
02:04:36,520 --> 02:04:38,400
Speaker 1: but I just since you live in New Jersey, I

2380
02:04:38,440 --> 02:04:41,000
Speaker 1: just wanted to New York and New Jersey as suppose well,

2381
02:04:41,040 --> 02:04:41,440
Speaker 1: I live.

2382
02:04:41,400 --> 02:04:44,440
Speaker 22: In I'm in New York during the week, so I'm

2383
02:04:44,520 --> 02:04:48,520
Speaker 22: right in the middle of the media heartbeat of all

2384
02:04:48,560 --> 02:04:54,440
Speaker 22: the Mam Donnie stuff. It's just an unusual phenomenon of

2385
02:04:55,160 --> 02:05:00,360
Speaker 22: enthusiasm from young people and old time lefties who apparently

2386
02:05:00,480 --> 02:05:02,800
Speaker 22: had more or less given up on the system but

2387
02:05:03,360 --> 02:05:10,800
Speaker 22: were attracted by his hard left ideology and his very attractive,

2388
02:05:11,040 --> 02:05:19,920
Speaker 22: very endearing personality. He's very charming, very physically attractive young

2389
02:05:20,040 --> 02:05:23,040
Speaker 22: man and Governor Cuomo who has been a friend of

2390
02:05:23,120 --> 02:05:27,440
Speaker 22: mine as his family has been for many many years.

2391
02:05:29,000 --> 02:05:31,400
Speaker 22: I hate to say this, but seemed to lack the

2392
02:05:31,720 --> 02:05:36,800
Speaker 22: energy and enthusiasm that he manifested when he was the

2393
02:05:36,880 --> 02:05:40,240
Speaker 22: governor of New York. Now he lost to Mamdanni twice.

2394
02:05:40,320 --> 02:05:43,360
Speaker 22: He lost to him in the Democratic primary back in June,

2395
02:05:43,960 --> 02:05:47,080
Speaker 22: and then he lost last night when he ran as

2396
02:05:47,120 --> 02:05:53,760
Speaker 22: an independent, and notably Mamdani by a narrow margin, but nevertheless,

2397
02:05:53,960 --> 02:05:58,720
Speaker 22: he did exceed fifty percent. So the complaints that the

2398
02:05:58,840 --> 02:06:02,560
Speaker 22: Republican Curtis we were whom the President referred to as

2399
02:06:02,640 --> 02:06:06,200
Speaker 22: a spoiler. So the President of the United States and

2400
02:06:06,520 --> 02:06:10,040
Speaker 22: the titular head of the Republican Party told the Republicans

2401
02:06:10,080 --> 02:06:11,960
Speaker 22: in New York, the few of them that are here,

2402
02:06:12,120 --> 02:06:14,480
Speaker 22: not to vote for the Republican candidate, but to vote

2403
02:06:14,520 --> 02:06:18,920
Speaker 22: for Andrew Cuomo. If all of them had done that, ma'am,

2404
02:06:19,320 --> 02:06:22,040
Speaker 22: which is unlikely. But if all of them had done that, ma'am,

2405
02:06:22,160 --> 02:06:23,320
Speaker 22: Donnie still would have won.

2406
02:06:24,400 --> 02:06:24,880
Speaker 2: Now, his.

2407
02:06:26,560 --> 02:06:32,320
Speaker 22: Victory speech was not wrapping his arms around people at all.

2408
02:06:33,480 --> 02:06:38,680
Speaker 22: It was an aggressive, pugnacious challenge to the President of

2409
02:06:38,760 --> 02:06:41,920
Speaker 22: the United States. I would have wrapped my arms around everybody.

2410
02:06:41,960 --> 02:06:44,080
Speaker 22: I would have said, mister President, this is the city

2411
02:06:44,160 --> 02:06:46,920
Speaker 22: of your birth, this is the city where you made

2412
02:06:46,960 --> 02:06:50,880
Speaker 22: your name. You built great skyscrapers in the city. We

2413
02:06:51,000 --> 02:06:56,240
Speaker 22: welcome you back, and we welcome your cooperation. Governor Cuomo,

2414
02:06:56,280 --> 02:06:59,240
Speaker 22: I want you to join my administration because you know

2415
02:06:59,440 --> 02:07:01,240
Speaker 22: so much about the city. I would have said things

2416
02:07:01,360 --> 02:07:04,280
Speaker 22: like that, but he didn't. He just came out swinging

2417
02:07:04,320 --> 02:07:08,480
Speaker 22: as if this was a perpetual campaign. Now, one thing

2418
02:07:08,600 --> 02:07:13,240
Speaker 22: that Trump did which helped Mam Donnie and hurt the

2419
02:07:14,080 --> 02:07:17,640
Speaker 22: Republican in New Jersey. And I don't know how Trump

2420
02:07:17,720 --> 02:07:21,000
Speaker 22: did this, because Congress has appropriated about six or seven

2421
02:07:21,120 --> 02:07:24,720
Speaker 22: billion for a new tunnel under the Hudson River between

2422
02:07:24,800 --> 02:07:27,360
Speaker 22: New Jersey and New York, badly needed. The new tunnel

2423
02:07:27,400 --> 02:07:31,280
Speaker 22: will be trained and automobile, and they've started work on it.

2424
02:07:31,760 --> 02:07:36,040
Speaker 22: They're part way under the river, starting from the New

2425
02:07:36,160 --> 02:07:39,800
Speaker 22: Jersey side. He cut off the funds on that project,

2426
02:07:40,840 --> 02:07:45,760
Speaker 22: and the Republican candidate who's ran on Trump's coattails, so

2427
02:07:45,880 --> 02:07:49,040
Speaker 22: to speak, refused to criticize Trump for it. Many many

2428
02:07:49,120 --> 02:07:52,320
Speaker 22: people in New Jersey are aggravated by that. Many people

2429
02:07:52,360 --> 02:07:54,960
Speaker 22: in New York are aggravated by it. The project brings

2430
02:07:55,120 --> 02:07:59,760
Speaker 22: thousands of jobs and an enormous economic improvement to the area.

2431
02:08:00,320 --> 02:08:03,120
Speaker 22: Trump cut it off in one of his peaks of anger.

2432
02:08:03,200 --> 02:08:07,000
Speaker 22: He didn't cut it off for any soundly stated reason.

2433
02:08:07,160 --> 02:08:11,280
Speaker 22: So it's a political mess here right now. I just

2434
02:08:11,400 --> 02:08:14,600
Speaker 22: hope the city doesn't suffer because the mayor likes to

2435
02:08:15,840 --> 02:08:21,000
Speaker 22: tease the president's personality and tone his ego.

2436
02:08:21,760 --> 02:08:26,959
Speaker 1: Well, does this signal beyond New York that the Democrats

2437
02:08:26,960 --> 02:08:30,040
Speaker 1: will be successful in their far leftward lurch? I mean

2438
02:08:30,080 --> 02:08:32,400
Speaker 1: They've been struggling with party identity for a long time.

2439
02:08:32,440 --> 02:08:34,640
Speaker 1: And the one thing that says to solidify Democrats is

2440
02:08:35,120 --> 02:08:38,280
Speaker 1: just a uniform hatred for Donald Trump. Fine, he's not

2441
02:08:38,320 --> 02:08:39,360
Speaker 1: going to be around leader of.

2442
02:08:39,440 --> 02:08:42,720
Speaker 22: The leader of the Democratic Party in the state of

2443
02:08:42,880 --> 02:08:46,560
Speaker 22: New York, who was also the minority leader in the

2444
02:08:46,680 --> 02:08:51,680
Speaker 22: United States Senate, was not at the Mam Donnie celebration

2445
02:08:51,920 --> 02:08:54,040
Speaker 22: last night. His office is right across in New York

2446
02:08:54,080 --> 02:08:56,000
Speaker 22: City office right across the street from where I am

2447
02:08:56,040 --> 02:08:58,440
Speaker 22: now occasionally see each other in the streets. That Senator

2448
02:08:58,560 --> 02:09:01,840
Speaker 22: Chuck Schumer. He of course is about to face a

2449
02:09:02,040 --> 02:09:04,800
Speaker 22: challenge from the left, from the famous or infamous however

2450
02:09:04,840 --> 02:09:08,960
Speaker 22: you want to call her AOC Alexandria Acassio Quortes. She's

2451
02:09:09,000 --> 02:09:12,040
Speaker 22: going to challenge him in the Democratic primary as he

2452
02:09:12,160 --> 02:09:16,920
Speaker 22: seeks reelection in twenty twenty six. The only thing the

2453
02:09:17,000 --> 02:09:21,920
Speaker 22: Democrats unite around is their antipathy to the President. They

2454
02:09:22,000 --> 02:09:24,200
Speaker 22: do not unite around ie geology.

2455
02:09:24,360 --> 02:09:24,960
Speaker 13: There is the.

2456
02:09:25,080 --> 02:09:30,680
Speaker 22: Mamdannie AOC Bernie Sanders wing, and there is the Chuck

2457
02:09:30,760 --> 02:09:34,600
Speaker 22: Schumer wing. I mean these this AOC crowd makes Chuck

2458
02:09:34,640 --> 02:09:37,360
Speaker 22: Schumer seem like Ronald Reagan in comparison.

2459
02:09:37,800 --> 02:09:39,640
Speaker 1: It's just it's.

2460
02:09:39,600 --> 02:09:43,040
Speaker 22: Crazy, but they have the enthusiasm. And I'll tell you

2461
02:09:43,040 --> 02:09:50,800
Speaker 22: about Mendanni's money. Small donations fifteen dollars, fifty dollars, one

2462
02:09:50,880 --> 02:09:56,120
Speaker 22: hundred dollars, No huge ten million dollar deposits in a

2463
02:09:56,240 --> 02:09:59,640
Speaker 22: political action committee by billionaires of anything. The billionaires in

2464
02:09:59,680 --> 02:10:02,720
Speaker 22: New York tried to prevent him, and they aided Cuomo.

2465
02:10:03,880 --> 02:10:06,840
Speaker 1: Well, that is an interesting phenomenon and of itself, but

2466
02:10:07,360 --> 02:10:12,040
Speaker 1: I guess he prevailed in the city with the largest

2467
02:10:12,120 --> 02:10:16,800
Speaker 1: Jewish population in the country. Yes, he is an avowed

2468
02:10:16,840 --> 02:10:19,480
Speaker 1: anti Semite. I mean he's on record and he's affiliated

2469
02:10:19,520 --> 02:10:22,520
Speaker 1: with every anti Semitic organization there is, and I'm painting

2470
02:10:22,560 --> 02:10:24,600
Speaker 1: with a broad brush all acknowledge, but a lot of them.

2471
02:10:24,920 --> 02:10:28,600
Speaker 1: He's made some demonstrably horrific comments about Hamas and the

2472
02:10:28,680 --> 02:10:32,520
Speaker 1: Jewish people generally, and he refuses to renounce Hamas, for example,

2473
02:10:32,560 --> 02:10:35,200
Speaker 1: even in the wake of that October seventh massacre. I

2474
02:10:35,400 --> 02:10:38,320
Speaker 1: just don't understand how he could get traction in New

2475
02:10:38,440 --> 02:10:38,920
Speaker 1: York City.

2476
02:10:39,080 --> 02:10:44,840
Speaker 22: I think the Jewish community in New York City either

2477
02:10:45,400 --> 02:10:50,720
Speaker 22: just gave up the ghost or there are many, many, many.

2478
02:10:50,760 --> 02:10:54,600
Speaker 22: Because I have friends in this group, members of the

2479
02:10:55,000 --> 02:10:59,840
Speaker 22: Jewish people in New York City who are profoundly anti netsigna,

2480
02:11:00,920 --> 02:11:06,280
Speaker 22: profoundly against what happened in Gaza, refer to it as genocide,

2481
02:11:07,120 --> 02:11:11,000
Speaker 22: and probably either voted for Mam Donnie or didn't vote

2482
02:11:11,120 --> 02:11:15,280
Speaker 22: because they expected him to win. Now a Cuomo has

2483
02:11:15,760 --> 02:11:21,080
Speaker 22: always had the support of all the major Jewish groups,

2484
02:11:21,160 --> 02:11:23,760
Speaker 22: but of course his elections before this one were all

2485
02:11:24,520 --> 02:11:28,760
Speaker 22: prior to October seventh, and never against a Muslim who

2486
02:11:28,920 --> 02:11:33,160
Speaker 22: was decidedly anti Jewish, so that also is a phenomenon.

2487
02:11:33,880 --> 02:11:36,920
Speaker 22: But you know, this Tucker Carlson Nick flint is thing

2488
02:11:37,120 --> 02:11:42,440
Speaker 22: exploded right at the tail end of the of the campaign.

2489
02:11:43,440 --> 02:11:45,440
Speaker 22: I'm a friend of Tucker Cross and I wouldn't go

2490
02:11:45,840 --> 02:11:49,000
Speaker 22: within a tent foot poll of Flints. But I don't

2491
02:11:49,040 --> 02:11:54,280
Speaker 22: think Carlson is an anti Semite. I think Carlson opposes

2492
02:11:55,240 --> 02:11:57,200
Speaker 22: what he believes, and I agree with him is the

2493
02:11:57,280 --> 02:12:00,880
Speaker 22: genocide in Gaza, and they're a lot of Jewish people

2494
02:12:00,920 --> 02:12:03,800
Speaker 22: in New York that agree with them. And that reared

2495
02:12:04,000 --> 02:12:07,760
Speaker 22: its head it because of the attacks on Carlson in

2496
02:12:07,800 --> 02:12:13,600
Speaker 22: the past ten days. Republican attacks on Carlson.

2497
02:12:13,240 --> 02:12:16,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, widespread, and I was actually shocked by all that

2498
02:12:17,320 --> 02:12:20,640
Speaker 1: real quick here. I appreciated your column, which comes out tonight.

2499
02:12:20,640 --> 02:12:23,720
Speaker 1: I'm lucky to get it early. Can the president tax you?

2500
02:12:23,760 --> 02:12:26,760
Speaker 1: And this, of course relates to the levying of tariff.

2501
02:12:26,800 --> 02:12:28,280
Speaker 1: This is going to be argued before the Supreme Court,

2502
02:12:28,400 --> 02:12:28,640
Speaker 1: is it not.

2503
02:12:29,760 --> 02:12:33,200
Speaker 22: It's going to be argued this morning at ten o'clock

2504
02:12:33,960 --> 02:12:39,600
Speaker 22: before the Supreme Court. And the funders of the challengers

2505
02:12:39,760 --> 02:12:46,920
Speaker 22: are all conservative, Republican and libertarian groups who a year

2506
02:12:47,000 --> 02:12:52,240
Speaker 22: ago endorsed Donald Trump but are profoundly critical of tariffs.

2507
02:12:53,080 --> 02:12:55,880
Speaker 22: Tariffs go back to Thomas Jefferson, but they've always been

2508
02:12:55,960 --> 02:13:00,360
Speaker 22: enacted by Congress. This is the first president who post

2509
02:13:00,440 --> 02:13:04,440
Speaker 22: tariffs on his own, usurping the power to tax the

2510
02:13:04,520 --> 02:13:07,640
Speaker 22: tariff as a sales tax. The question is did Congress

2511
02:13:07,880 --> 02:13:10,640
Speaker 22: give away its power? And then the question is can

2512
02:13:10,760 --> 02:13:15,040
Speaker 22: Congress constitutionally give away its power? I've read these two statutes,

2513
02:13:15,080 --> 02:13:17,400
Speaker 22: telling Blue in the face you can't find the word

2514
02:13:17,480 --> 02:13:21,440
Speaker 22: tariff's in there specifically or even by implication.

2515
02:13:22,360 --> 02:13:24,680
Speaker 1: You refer to the National Emergencies Act in nineteen seventy

2516
02:13:24,720 --> 02:13:29,360
Speaker 1: six that he's claiming the right to do this under Yes, yeah, there's.

2517
02:13:29,200 --> 02:13:32,200
Speaker 22: A for a gerald Ford era statute and then another

2518
02:13:32,280 --> 02:13:36,800
Speaker 22: one Jimmy Carter era. He's also claiming that this is

2519
02:13:36,840 --> 02:13:39,360
Speaker 22: an emergency. When you ask him what the emergency is,

2520
02:13:39,400 --> 02:13:41,440
Speaker 22: I don't know how the DOJ is going to say

2521
02:13:41,920 --> 02:13:45,000
Speaker 22: this is an emergency with a straight face. When justice

2522
02:13:45,080 --> 02:13:48,120
Speaker 22: course such asks them what's the emergency? They claim the

2523
02:13:48,200 --> 02:13:50,640
Speaker 22: imbalance of trade is an emergency. Well, we've had an

2524
02:13:50,640 --> 02:13:54,920
Speaker 22: imbalance of trade since nineteen thirty four. That's ninety years. Yeah,

2525
02:13:55,560 --> 02:13:58,600
Speaker 22: how could not be an emergency. There's a federal definition

2526
02:13:58,720 --> 02:14:05,720
Speaker 22: of emergency sudden and unexpected event that adversely affects the

2527
02:14:05,880 --> 02:14:09,800
Speaker 22: national security or economic stability. So you're talking about a

2528
02:14:09,880 --> 02:14:13,080
Speaker 22: surprise military attack or a hurricane. You're not talking about

2529
02:14:14,480 --> 02:14:18,280
Speaker 22: a ledger sheet that has existed for ninety years.

2530
02:14:18,560 --> 02:14:21,160
Speaker 1: Well, and given them with the wealthiest country on the planet,

2531
02:14:21,160 --> 02:14:22,880
Speaker 1: you would expect to trade in balance because we have

2532
02:14:23,000 --> 02:14:25,600
Speaker 1: enough money to buy stuff from other corect.

2533
02:14:25,600 --> 02:14:28,240
Speaker 22: So if you if you run up your credit card

2534
02:14:28,360 --> 02:14:31,560
Speaker 22: to its limit and you owe the credit card company

2535
02:14:31,720 --> 02:14:34,800
Speaker 22: more than you have at the moment in your checking account,

2536
02:14:34,920 --> 02:14:39,560
Speaker 22: you have a personal trade imbalance. Is that the fault

2537
02:14:39,680 --> 02:14:42,800
Speaker 22: of the companies that sold you the products? No, you're

2538
02:14:42,800 --> 02:14:46,000
Speaker 22: going to punish them? No, Trump looks at it differently.

2539
02:14:46,080 --> 02:14:48,160
Speaker 22: He claims it's the fault of foreign governments, and so

2540
02:14:48,280 --> 02:14:49,919
Speaker 22: he wants to punish them with tariffs.

2541
02:14:50,400 --> 02:14:55,400
Speaker 1: So the mechanism to actually do this is congressional action, correct,

2542
02:14:55,680 --> 02:14:59,360
Speaker 1: And here we find ourselves with nothing but congressional inaction

2543
02:14:59,560 --> 02:15:03,200
Speaker 1: on little everything. This is where the problem of expedients

2544
02:15:03,200 --> 02:15:05,120
Speaker 1: always enters into the equation with you and I and

2545
02:15:05,200 --> 02:15:07,800
Speaker 1: everybody else. People want stuff done right now. They're not

2546
02:15:07,880 --> 02:15:11,000
Speaker 1: willing to wait for the constitutionally founded process to go through,

2547
02:15:11,320 --> 02:15:14,360
Speaker 1: and when that process fails, people immediately defaulted. We'll just

2548
02:15:14,440 --> 02:15:16,560
Speaker 1: go ahead and do it anyway. It's like launching a lot.

2549
02:15:16,640 --> 02:15:20,400
Speaker 22: That is actually part of the DOJ's problem. The DOJ

2550
02:15:20,600 --> 02:15:22,839
Speaker 22: lawyer is going to point to be in the courtroom.

2551
02:15:23,040 --> 02:15:25,120
Speaker 22: It's going to point across the street to the Capitol

2552
02:15:25,160 --> 02:15:29,120
Speaker 22: and say that building is closed. They can't agree on anything.

2553
02:15:29,680 --> 02:15:32,520
Speaker 22: The government is shut down. What is the president supposed

2554
02:15:32,560 --> 02:15:32,760
Speaker 22: to do?

2555
02:15:33,040 --> 02:15:33,160
Speaker 2: Right?

2556
02:15:35,200 --> 02:15:37,920
Speaker 22: That doesn't mean he can tax, but it does mean

2557
02:15:37,960 --> 02:15:41,120
Speaker 22: he has to run foreign policy without the Congress.

2558
02:15:42,200 --> 02:15:45,800
Speaker 1: Yes, indeed, well, at least in the constitution, he is

2559
02:15:45,880 --> 02:15:49,160
Speaker 1: responsible for foreign policy. But as you point out, taxes

2560
02:15:49,240 --> 02:15:52,200
Speaker 1: are not foreign policy, and tariffs are invested in the

2561
02:15:53,240 --> 02:15:56,800
Speaker 1: part of the congressional responsibility complicated. It is your honor,

2562
02:15:56,840 --> 02:16:01,200
Speaker 1: and of course gridlock tends to result in actions of expedience,

2563
02:16:01,680 --> 02:16:05,879
Speaker 1: perhaps unlawful. Judgingna Paula Tana Judging Freedom is your podcast.

2564
02:16:06,000 --> 02:16:07,840
Speaker 1: You do it all week. What's going on today?

2565
02:16:07,840 --> 02:16:12,360
Speaker 22: Your honor might have Professor Glenn Dieson and x CIA

2566
02:16:12,520 --> 02:16:18,520
Speaker 22: agent to Phil Giraldi, and tomorrow Colonel Douglas McGregor and

2567
02:16:19,360 --> 02:16:22,320
Speaker 22: Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson who worked with Dick Cheney and is

2568
02:16:22,400 --> 02:16:25,280
Speaker 22: going to refer to him as a war criminal.

2569
02:16:27,320 --> 02:16:31,400
Speaker 1: Somehow, that seems like it's expected. Good job. We'll be

2570
02:16:31,480 --> 02:16:33,680
Speaker 1: listening to the Judging Freedom. I'll encourage my listeners to

2571
02:16:33,720 --> 02:16:37,200
Speaker 1: find that podcast and enjoy your conversations. Always excellent they are,

2572
02:16:37,280 --> 02:16:39,039
Speaker 1: and I always appreciate your time here on the fifty

2573
02:16:39,040 --> 02:16:40,000
Speaker 1: five Carecy morning.

2574
02:16:40,440 --> 02:16:42,840
Speaker 22: As much as I appreciate the time you get me.

2575
02:16:42,959 --> 02:16:45,480
Speaker 1: Thank you, Brian, Thank you have a wonderful week. My friends.

2576
02:16:45,520 --> 02:16:47,760
Speaker 1: Eight forty two right now fifty five car City Talk Stations,

2577
02:16:47,800 --> 02:16:49,960
Speaker 1: Joe Up and the phone look and to start with Maureen. Maureen,

2578
02:16:50,040 --> 02:16:51,920
Speaker 1: thanks for calling this morning in a very happy Wednesday.

2579
02:16:51,959 --> 02:16:53,080
Speaker 1: To you to the extent you can make it.

2580
02:16:53,200 --> 02:16:56,760
Speaker 28: So take good morning, Brian, thanks for taking the call.

2581
02:16:57,959 --> 02:17:00,359
Speaker 28: I was going to call about Bill Gates in historygic

2582
02:17:00,400 --> 02:17:03,160
Speaker 28: pivot about global warming, but I'll save that for tomorrow

2583
02:17:03,720 --> 02:17:06,000
Speaker 28: because I want to stay in the morning process here.

2584
02:17:06,080 --> 02:17:09,600
Speaker 28: With every morning abody about the election, I have to

2585
02:17:09,640 --> 02:17:11,840
Speaker 28: have Peerval first came on my radar when I went

2586
02:17:11,920 --> 02:17:15,080
Speaker 28: to the debate that he had with Congressman Shabbitt at

2587
02:17:15,120 --> 02:17:18,920
Speaker 28: the Incline Theater back in twenty eighteen, and that was

2588
02:17:18,959 --> 02:17:21,680
Speaker 28: about the time that he was the reason he lost

2589
02:17:21,720 --> 02:17:24,560
Speaker 28: that they say was because of his double dipping with

2590
02:17:24,640 --> 02:17:27,520
Speaker 28: the sixteen thousand dollars check that was paid to two

2591
02:17:27,640 --> 02:17:31,480
Speaker 28: different entities during his campaign. Well anyway, so that was

2592
02:17:31,520 --> 02:17:36,680
Speaker 28: the first red flag. Second one. Ben and Jerry's named

2593
02:17:36,720 --> 02:17:38,560
Speaker 28: their ice cream after him, which is if you know

2594
02:17:38,600 --> 02:17:41,960
Speaker 28: anything about Ben and Jerry's, is very telling media that

2595
02:17:42,120 --> 02:17:46,040
Speaker 28: Matters is back was backing him, which soro fun of media,

2596
02:17:46,080 --> 02:17:50,400
Speaker 28: Matters is pretty much congruent. And then also when he

2597
02:17:50,560 --> 02:17:51,440
Speaker 28: came to the.

2598
02:17:53,000 --> 02:17:53,600
Speaker 11: He was supposed to.

2599
02:17:53,600 --> 02:17:55,920
Speaker 28: Hold a town hall type thing at Music Hall, and

2600
02:17:56,040 --> 02:17:57,840
Speaker 28: the last minute, I think, because I want them to

2601
02:17:57,879 --> 02:18:01,279
Speaker 28: be a very big crowd, changed the venue to Washington

2602
02:18:01,360 --> 02:18:03,959
Speaker 28: park and he rode up on his bicycle and the cold,

2603
02:18:04,120 --> 02:18:07,000
Speaker 28: and then he proceeded to talk about global warming and

2604
02:18:07,320 --> 02:18:10,400
Speaker 28: you know, all that kind of kind of stuff. So anyway,

2605
02:18:11,400 --> 02:18:13,240
Speaker 28: I knew right then and there I'm out of here.

2606
02:18:13,400 --> 02:18:16,240
Speaker 28: I thought that my property values were starting to go down.

2607
02:18:16,280 --> 02:18:18,400
Speaker 28: There was increased crime in the area, and that kind

2608
02:18:18,440 --> 02:18:21,240
Speaker 28: of thing that was that was came up shortly after

2609
02:18:21,360 --> 02:18:24,280
Speaker 28: all that, and I thought that if he stays in this,

2610
02:18:25,000 --> 02:18:27,880
Speaker 28: in this game here he won clerk of Courts. Then

2611
02:18:27,959 --> 02:18:31,200
Speaker 28: he took out Tracy Winkler's position, and just as I

2612
02:18:31,280 --> 02:18:34,560
Speaker 28: saw his risees, that was just a stepping stone to

2613
02:18:34,760 --> 02:18:36,600
Speaker 28: bigger things. He kind of that kind of became the

2614
02:18:36,680 --> 02:18:39,560
Speaker 28: mini Obama to me, and I thought, I'm not going

2615
02:18:39,640 --> 02:18:42,280
Speaker 28: to hang around to watch this, this burning down of

2616
02:18:42,360 --> 02:18:45,240
Speaker 28: our city because the writing was on the wall. And

2617
02:18:45,320 --> 02:18:47,680
Speaker 28: I feel like kind of a deserter, but I had

2618
02:18:47,720 --> 02:18:50,400
Speaker 28: to watch out for my you know, property value and

2619
02:18:50,520 --> 02:18:54,560
Speaker 28: things like that. I listened to your wife, Ah, I was.

2620
02:18:54,640 --> 02:18:56,560
Speaker 1: Just going to bring her back up, and you like

2621
02:18:56,640 --> 02:18:59,520
Speaker 1: the third callar this morning who either said that's it,

2622
02:18:59,640 --> 02:19:02,959
Speaker 1: I'm done or I moved out twenty years ago. Because

2623
02:19:02,959 --> 02:19:04,400
Speaker 1: I could see the writing on the wall with the

2624
02:19:04,480 --> 02:19:07,280
Speaker 1: city I love going so far left and falling apart

2625
02:19:07,400 --> 02:19:09,840
Speaker 1: literally in front of our very eyes. So that's a

2626
02:19:09,920 --> 02:19:12,480
Speaker 1: sad reality because I loves the city. Everybody knows that.

2627
02:19:12,600 --> 02:19:15,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure you still love the city conceptually, and you

2628
02:19:15,160 --> 02:19:16,760
Speaker 1: wish it was better. You wish it was a better

2629
02:19:16,800 --> 02:19:19,720
Speaker 1: functioning entity. But no Moss, and a lot of people

2630
02:19:19,840 --> 02:19:22,960
Speaker 1: I'm afraid might go that same direction. I don't say

2631
02:19:23,000 --> 02:19:25,080
Speaker 1: it's given up. I just say you're making a decision

2632
02:19:25,120 --> 02:19:27,120
Speaker 1: that you believe to be in your best interest, and

2633
02:19:27,280 --> 02:19:30,960
Speaker 1: you know what you're looking back twenty years ago forward

2634
02:19:31,080 --> 02:19:33,199
Speaker 1: and you had all the information in front of the EO.

2635
02:19:33,320 --> 02:19:36,880
Speaker 1: Now it would be an appropriate, rational thing to leave

2636
02:19:37,160 --> 02:19:39,520
Speaker 1: back then. Maureen, God bless you, and I'll look forward

2637
02:19:39,520 --> 02:19:41,000
Speaker 1: to hearing from you tomorrow because that is a topic

2638
02:19:41,240 --> 02:19:43,720
Speaker 1: near and dear to my heart. As you know, thanks

2639
02:19:43,760 --> 02:19:45,080
Speaker 1: for calling that.

2640
02:19:45,400 --> 02:19:46,000
Speaker 2: I know you too.

2641
02:19:46,160 --> 02:19:48,760
Speaker 1: Thanks, Maureene. I appreciate your support and show Dwayne you're up.

2642
02:19:48,879 --> 02:19:54,520
Speaker 1: Thanks for calling this morning, Dwayne, you're on.

2643
02:19:55,040 --> 02:19:59,320
Speaker 17: Hey, Brian, I wanted to agree with all your callers

2644
02:19:59,560 --> 02:20:01,920
Speaker 17: since the out the election, but I have a disagreement

2645
02:20:01,920 --> 02:20:06,960
Speaker 17: with the judge the politano, he says, just because it's

2646
02:20:07,040 --> 02:20:10,760
Speaker 17: been done this way for ninety years. It can't be

2647
02:20:10,879 --> 02:20:14,800
Speaker 17: an emergency. That's incorrect. We don't continue to do the

2648
02:20:14,920 --> 02:20:19,080
Speaker 17: same bad things. We are trillions of dollars in debt.

2649
02:20:19,680 --> 02:20:23,280
Speaker 17: If any of these countries come calling, we're going to

2650
02:20:23,440 --> 02:20:27,119
Speaker 17: end up broke. So because it's been so poorly run,

2651
02:20:27,240 --> 02:20:29,760
Speaker 17: it's like a business. Why would you not bring in

2652
02:20:29,959 --> 02:20:33,560
Speaker 17: a new CFO and change that will get us out

2653
02:20:33,600 --> 02:20:34,000
Speaker 17: of debt.

2654
02:20:34,320 --> 02:20:35,320
Speaker 5: It is an emergency.

2655
02:20:35,400 --> 02:20:39,600
Speaker 17: It's a financial emergency. It's a national security emergency.

2656
02:20:39,240 --> 02:20:39,920
Speaker 7: On top of that.

2657
02:20:40,520 --> 02:20:43,320
Speaker 1: Well, under the terms of the Act that he's operating under.

2658
02:20:43,360 --> 02:20:46,000
Speaker 1: It's a debatable position, but he did define and there

2659
02:20:46,080 --> 02:20:50,200
Speaker 1: is a federal definition for emergency sudden and unexpected. It's

2660
02:20:50,240 --> 02:20:52,160
Speaker 1: something we litigated back when I was doing Circle of

2661
02:20:52,160 --> 02:20:57,160
Speaker 1: pollution liability companies with slow drip pollutions over years and years.

2662
02:20:57,720 --> 02:21:01,600
Speaker 1: Suddenly decided that that slow drip after year was a

2663
02:21:01,959 --> 02:21:05,840
Speaker 1: sudden and accidental occurrence, neither of which was true. So

2664
02:21:06,280 --> 02:21:09,959
Speaker 1: you're stuck with that pesky constitution and peski legal limitations

2665
02:21:10,280 --> 02:21:12,600
Speaker 1: regardless of how you want to characterize it. I don't

2666
02:21:12,640 --> 02:21:15,560
Speaker 1: deny we're in an economic emergency, but the idea that

2667
02:21:15,680 --> 02:21:18,720
Speaker 1: it just sort of suddenly popped up. I'm with the

2668
02:21:18,800 --> 02:21:21,600
Speaker 1: Judge on that this has been a long, long, long

2669
02:21:21,800 --> 02:21:23,840
Speaker 1: time coming and a lot of people are to blame

2670
02:21:23,920 --> 02:21:26,680
Speaker 1: for it, on both sides of the political ledger good observation,

2671
02:21:26,760 --> 02:21:28,320
Speaker 1: So Dune, I'm not going to argue with you about that.

2672
02:21:28,400 --> 02:21:30,440
Speaker 1: Who's next? Fred, Fred, welcome to the Morning Show. Thanks

2673
02:21:30,480 --> 02:21:30,880
Speaker 1: for calling in.

2674
02:21:32,200 --> 02:21:35,200
Speaker 5: Hey, you're doing a great job as always. But I

2675
02:21:35,360 --> 02:21:39,240
Speaker 5: have a question a concern, and I believe the reason

2676
02:21:39,400 --> 02:21:40,279
Speaker 5: for that concern.

2677
02:21:40,480 --> 02:21:40,800
Speaker 1: Go ahead.

2678
02:21:40,920 --> 02:21:44,879
Speaker 5: My question is how on earth do we look at

2679
02:21:45,080 --> 02:21:49,640
Speaker 5: tariffs on a foreign country as not being foreign policy?

2680
02:21:51,879 --> 02:21:55,560
Speaker 5: By definition, would be foreign policy if you're doing this

2681
02:21:55,760 --> 02:22:01,880
Speaker 5: to another country. And my concern is that you've gone

2682
02:22:02,000 --> 02:22:05,480
Speaker 5: soft on the Judge and you're not your normal tough

2683
02:22:05,560 --> 02:22:08,039
Speaker 5: guy on everybody that comes on that show.

2684
02:22:08,280 --> 02:22:10,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think I know why.

2685
02:22:12,720 --> 02:22:13,119
Speaker 1: Go ahead.

2686
02:22:13,320 --> 02:22:17,480
Speaker 5: Very recently, very recently, you had confessed that you were

2687
02:22:17,600 --> 02:22:22,400
Speaker 5: a religious Scotch drinker, and then all of a sudden,

2688
02:22:22,480 --> 02:22:28,000
Speaker 5: now you're drinking Burbin and you've gone soft on the Judge.

2689
02:22:28,800 --> 02:22:32,080
Speaker 5: What I think there's a direct correlation.

2690
02:22:32,360 --> 02:22:36,800
Speaker 1: No, I love it, Fred. You know I'm a little elivertary.

2691
02:22:36,840 --> 02:22:39,480
Speaker 1: You know, Judge is full on libertarian and I'm a

2692
02:22:39,600 --> 02:22:42,039
Speaker 1: constitutional purist, and much in the same way I am

2693
02:22:42,120 --> 02:22:45,520
Speaker 1: with the judge. I get where you are coming from,

2694
02:22:45,640 --> 02:22:47,440
Speaker 1: and for example, I get where the last caller was

2695
02:22:47,480 --> 02:22:49,800
Speaker 1: coming from. But then again, I also appreciate that, in

2696
02:22:49,879 --> 02:22:53,480
Speaker 1: spite of its absolute outright dysfunction, Congress, I believe, with

2697
02:22:53,600 --> 02:22:55,560
Speaker 1: the judge, has the power of the perse and this

2698
02:22:55,680 --> 02:22:58,200
Speaker 1: is a power of the purse issue. It does impact

2699
02:22:58,280 --> 02:23:01,520
Speaker 1: foreign policy, but I think congressional action is what is needed,

2700
02:23:01,600 --> 02:23:03,760
Speaker 1: much in the same way I've always argued congressional action

2701
02:23:03,879 --> 02:23:05,640
Speaker 1: is needed when you want to start dropping bombs on

2702
02:23:05,760 --> 02:23:08,400
Speaker 1: foreign countries. Yes, we have the War Powers Act. Yes,

2703
02:23:08,480 --> 02:23:11,080
Speaker 1: I think that also happens to be unconstitutional. It's never

2704
02:23:11,160 --> 02:23:14,560
Speaker 1: been put to the challenge, but I love the correlation argument.

2705
02:23:14,560 --> 02:23:16,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to go back to Scotch my friend, Sherry,

2706
02:23:16,640 --> 02:23:18,040
Speaker 1: You're going to have the final ward in the program.

2707
02:23:18,120 --> 02:23:19,280
Speaker 1: Thanks for call today, Sherry.

2708
02:23:20,680 --> 02:23:21,720
Speaker 19: Thanks for taking my call.

2709
02:23:21,800 --> 02:23:25,000
Speaker 30: Brian. So, I just had a few comments nationally and

2710
02:23:25,080 --> 02:23:28,040
Speaker 30: then focusing back in on the city, our city, So

2711
02:23:28,480 --> 02:23:31,560
Speaker 30: New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City, they're all blue,

2712
02:23:31,879 --> 02:23:36,800
Speaker 30: the same as the blue Cincinnati. Hamilton County is blue,

2713
02:23:37,320 --> 02:23:41,400
Speaker 30: and it happens that way because, as the lady that

2714
02:23:41,480 --> 02:23:44,560
Speaker 30: you had on earlier said, you just can't take it

2715
02:23:44,640 --> 02:23:46,440
Speaker 30: after a while, when you end up moving out. I

2716
02:23:46,520 --> 02:23:48,520
Speaker 30: had a daughter in Hyde Park who is like, oh

2717
02:23:48,560 --> 02:23:50,920
Speaker 30: my god, it's just crazy what they're doing with taxes.

2718
02:23:51,000 --> 02:23:54,600
Speaker 30: It's crazy what they're doing. And at some point you say,

2719
02:23:54,720 --> 02:23:58,640
Speaker 30: I can't do this because my property value will go down.

2720
02:23:58,800 --> 02:24:01,000
Speaker 30: And it's not the people that are moving in, it's

2721
02:24:01,080 --> 02:24:05,160
Speaker 30: the policies enacted by the leaders that are doing that.

2722
02:24:05,959 --> 02:24:10,160
Speaker 30: So then if we look at Mandani, his was free giveaways.

2723
02:24:10,240 --> 02:24:12,920
Speaker 30: That's all it's about, is free giveaways and.

2724
02:24:14,640 --> 02:24:17,199
Speaker 1: Inflation.

2725
02:24:17,920 --> 02:24:22,240
Speaker 30: Yes, definitely. But he was so ungracious in that speech.

2726
02:24:22,320 --> 02:24:26,160
Speaker 30: I think somebody had said that Judge and Paulatano said

2727
02:24:26,160 --> 02:24:29,160
Speaker 30: that he was so ungracious. But I think that that's

2728
02:24:29,320 --> 02:24:32,200
Speaker 30: the true insight into who he is. I don't think

2729
02:24:32,280 --> 02:24:35,480
Speaker 30: that he has any love for any of the American people.

2730
02:24:35,879 --> 02:24:40,720
Speaker 30: He was very adamant about how victimized he was and

2731
02:24:41,040 --> 02:24:43,880
Speaker 30: how his aunt, who wasn't his aunt, who wasn't even

2732
02:24:43,959 --> 02:24:47,200
Speaker 30: a relative, who didn't even exist, you know, was so

2733
02:24:47,400 --> 02:24:49,440
Speaker 30: offended that she couldn't ride the subway.

2734
02:24:49,600 --> 02:24:52,920
Speaker 1: I agree with you all cared nothing all day long. Sherry,

2735
02:24:52,959 --> 02:24:55,520
Speaker 1: and I think you are absolutely right. Just like the judge.

2736
02:24:55,840 --> 02:24:58,800
Speaker 1: It was quite a revealing victory speech he did. I

2737
02:24:59,000 --> 02:25:01,520
Speaker 1: think this New York residents are going to rue the

2738
02:25:01,600 --> 02:25:04,280
Speaker 1: day that they elected him. All I can do is say, Sherry,

2739
02:25:04,320 --> 02:25:05,800
Speaker 1: you and I are going to be keeping our popcorn

2740
02:25:05,840 --> 02:25:08,880
Speaker 1: out and being very thankful that we don't live in

2741
02:25:08,959 --> 02:25:11,400
Speaker 1: New York City because we'd have to leave
