1 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: It's that time time, time, time, Luck and load. The 2 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: Michael Verie Show is on the air. 3 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 2: The crazy old man yelling at the clouds again. Al 4 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: Green is back. He's brought up another impeachment resolution on 5 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 2: President Trump, with nearly two dozen of his fellow Democrats 6 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 2: voting to block that vote. Republicans have the good sense, 7 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 2: in an election year to shoot it down. Although I 8 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 2: think there are a lot of Republicans that would love 9 00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 2: to see Trump and peach and remove from office. This 10 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 2: is a fascinating phenomenon I've never witnessed in my lifetime before, 11 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 2: where the elected officials are the. 12 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 3: Tails waggon a dog. 13 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 2: Here, the elected official Republicans are having to go along 14 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: with supposed Trump love, which they don't have, because they're 15 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: scared to death of the public which supports Trump. In fact, 16 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 2: I saw a number last night. Let's see if I 17 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: can pull that up. I saw a number last night 18 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 2: of approval ratings. Trump's approval rating at the eleven month 19 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 2: mark of his second term, which is of course what 20 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 2: this is is forty three point seven percent. That's above 21 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: Barack Obama's forty two point six. Trump at forty three 22 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 2: point seven, Obama at forty two point six at this 23 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: point in twenty thirteen, and George W. Bush is forty 24 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: two point five percent at this point in two thousand 25 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 2: and five. 26 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 3: So to say that Trump is. 27 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 2: Unpopular, he's more popular than the last two presidents who 28 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: served a second term at this point in their second term, 29 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: making him the most popular president in the twenty first 30 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,679 Speaker 2: century at this point in his presidency. 31 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 3: Think about that for a moment. Well, that not only. 32 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: That's not only shocking, because there becomes a certain fatigue. 33 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: Even Democrats were beginning to get fatigued with Obama by 34 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 2: twenty thirteen, by his second term, Republicans were certainly fatigued 35 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: with George W. Bush in his second term. He has 36 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 2: sent us He had sent us in to a forever war. 37 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: He split the country with his weapons of mass destruction. 38 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 2: He was sending our boys into wars for seemingly reasons 39 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 2: that we couldn't figure out. We were supposed to be 40 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: in Afghanistan to track down Osama bin Laden. 41 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: He wasn't there. 42 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 2: We had an opportunity to take him out in Afghanistan, 43 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 2: but there would have been some collateral damage, and he 44 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 2: decided no, I'd rather lose thousands of Americans than a 45 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 2: few dozen of Osama bin Laden's family. So let's hold 46 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: up because maybe I'll still win the Nobel Peace Prize. 47 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: Yet then you had the economic collapse on his watch, 48 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: and it bears no. I'm not blaming the economic collapse 49 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: of eight on George W. Bush, but I will say 50 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 2: the idea that everybody needs to own a home, and 51 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 2: the idea that lend should be pushed using the government's 52 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: leverage into lending to people who have no business taking 53 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 2: that kind of loan that did contribute to the collapse. 54 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 2: There's no doubt of that. The community lending guidelines at 55 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: George W. Bush Republicans love. They look for an opportunity 56 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: to appear to be a nice guy because they're all 57 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 2: so afraid that they're coming across as mean racists, ebeneze 58 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 2: or scrooges. So they look for something that they think, well, 59 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: it will seem to be very very nice to poor 60 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 2: people and black people and minorities, and then they run 61 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 2: with it, and even if it ends up being a debacle, 62 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 2: the damage is done and they think they come off 63 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: looking like a nice guy. Well, good policy does not 64 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: always in gender. Love and affection from people who make 65 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 2: bad decisions, that's just the nature of the beast. But 66 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: good policy creates a sound fiscal and monetary system in 67 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: this country and keeps us on solid footing. If you 68 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 2: go out playing Santa Claus, you're going to disrupt our 69 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: economy and our long term stability. And there are people 70 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: who will say, I will only vote for you if 71 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 2: you will redistribute wealth to me. I mean, really, that's 72 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: what we're doing in Texas with the tax cuts, with 73 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: the eliminate property taxes. We're not reducing the overall spending, 74 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: the drain on the tax payer. We're just redistributing it. 75 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 2: If you think about it, every time we say to 76 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: one group, will give you a tax break, we're saying 77 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 2: to the other groups, you'll pay more. But they don't 78 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: notice that. The only people who notice are the people 79 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 2: who are getting the eliminate there or reduce their tax burden. 80 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 2: We're just shifting the burden. Economists will tell you that 81 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 2: that's what people do most of the time. Last week, 82 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 2: Jasmine Crockett announced her campaign launched for US Senate in Texas, 83 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 2: and of course the media is drooling over the idea 84 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 2: of pumping up Jazzy. Meanwhile, John Wayne mccornyn is pumping 85 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 2: piles of cash from National Republicans into his campaign in 86 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 2: a primary we're not even against the Democrat yet, only 87 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: to find himself in third place and falling further behind. 88 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 2: Jasmine Crockett has come out and said she enjoys working 89 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 2: with John Wayne mccornyn friends like her. He doesn't need enemies. 90 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 3: Now. 91 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 2: It seems that Jazzy and John Wayne mccorny have formed 92 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 2: some site type of friendship. They even paired up with 93 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 2: Texas Country Reporter in an episode that aired this weekend. 94 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 4: This week on Texas Country Reporter, it's road trip time 95 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 4: with two Texas candidates on us at sides of the ticket, 96 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 4: but suddenly find themselves on the right side of a friendship. 97 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 4: Let's hit the road with John Wayne mccornyn at Jasmine Crockett. 98 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 4: Let's listen to some real Texas music because I'm John 99 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 4: Wayne mccornyn and I'm Texas to the ball. 100 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 5: Oh hell no, Johnny Mack.

I don't think 192 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: there was any doubt. I will say this kid Pavia, 193 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: who played at Vanderbilt. I really liked his story. I 194 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 2: mean a cocky kid. He's little or short, played like Scataboo, 195 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: played college football. 196 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 3: He liked to hit people. I saw a certain. 197 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 2: Amount of Johnny Manziel bravado to what he was doing. 198 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 2: And while they didn't finish where they would have liked 199 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 2: to have finished, or even make the playoffs, they've taken 200 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 2: a Vanderbilt team who would have thought the best team 201 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: in the state of Tennessee would be Vandy and not 202 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: the Volunteers. They made a really good run of it. 203 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 2: In fact, he almost brought him back against the Longhorns 204 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 2: when they were down big plays, with a lot of 205 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 2: spunk hung in there. Nobody wanted him out of high school, 206 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 2: went to a second rate, third rate college program, but 207 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 2: damned if he didn't make something of himself. And now 208 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 2: he's just made an ass of himself. And I'm afraid 209 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 2: that Johnny Manziel ending will be his And I find 210 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 2: Manziel to be very charming. Well here was for naw 211 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 2: I know Mendoza speech, which I think I think is 212 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: a model I think young people should look up to. 213 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 6: This guy didn't know a single teammate and was fourth 214 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 6: on the depth chart by mid season. 215 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 3: I wanted to get out of there, I wanted to quit. 216 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 6: My parents said I had to finish what I started, 217 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 6: So I learned to embrace my team, and that is 218 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 6: when I fell in love with football. By high school, 219 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 6: I was chasing the first stages of. 220 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 3: Pipe dream to play in college. 221 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 6: Then COVID hit cut the season short. The result, I 222 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 6: was only a two star prospect. 223 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 3: I only had one scholarship offer, But. 224 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 6: My family's unconditional love and belief kept me going and 225 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 6: pushed me forward.

It's choosing hope. It's 234 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 6: believing in yourself when the world doesn't give you much 235 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 6: reason to.

It's the hardest 266 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 2: part of the real estate brokerage business. So while I 267 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 2: was out socializing, I would bring in the business, get 268 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 2: the listings or the buyers, hand them off to the 269 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 2: agents and kind of oversee them. But we were up 270 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 2: against the big firms, so I was doing apartments on 271 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 2: the side and renovations and flipping and all that sort 272 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 2: of stuff. But I enjoyed the brokerage side a lot. 273 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 2: The problem was we were up against some really talented 274 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 2: people at some really good firms, Martha Turner Properties, John 275 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 2: Dort Greenwood King being the three that were that were 276 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 2: the most well respected and had very talented agents. One 277 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 2: of them was Janet Gamalva, and she kind of owned 278 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 2: the Briargrove Tanglewood area, and every time we had a 279 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 2: listing or a buyer in that area, her name would 280 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 2: come up as this sort of legend. So a couple 281 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,719 Speaker 2: of years ago I got an email and it was 282 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 2: something I had said, or some restaurant I had confederate house, 283 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 2: or some restaurant I had referenced, or whatever else. And 284 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 2: it was signed by Janet Gamalva that that she had 285 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 2: eaten there. So we've communicated over the last couple of 286 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 2: years because her family, the Gamalvas, were so connected in 287 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 2: this town, kind of like the Carabas. 288 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 3: And Ramon but Terra. 289 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 2: Mandola like the Mandolas, and Houston was at one point 290 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 2: a smaller town where these families were all so connected, 291 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,120 Speaker 2: and since then it's grown a lot. 292 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 3: So I asked Janna by email this morning. 293 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 2: I said, because when I came to Houston, I played 294 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 2: tennis a lot. Used to play at the met downtown 295 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 2: every morning every weekday morning at six am, and a 296 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 2: lot of people there. There was a Sammy Gamalva connection. 297 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 2: Sammy Gamalva was a legendary Houston tennis player, I guess, 298 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 2: probably the best tennis player in Houston history, played against Connors. 299 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 2: He was very, very, very well regarded on the national scale. 300 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 2: So I said, hey, Howard, you related to Sammy and 301 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 2: the rest of the commercial real estate Giammalva family. Here's 302 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 2: the family tree. Ramon Big Sammy is my dad's first cousin. 303 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 2: Their dads were brothers. Sero Lampassas of Zero's is his nephew. 304 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 2: On Big Sammy's wife's side. These family's all inner, Mary Ramont. See, 305 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: that's why you never had a chance. You didn't marry money. 306 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 2: My dad's company was originally Anderson Fitzgerald Giomalva in the seventies. 307 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 2: They specialized in syndications, but when the tax laws changed, 308 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 2: they went their separate ways and always remained great friends. 309 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 2: My dad's company became Saverio Gamalva Properties. Okay, so that's 310 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 2: the one you see the namer of a commercial broker, 311 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 2: mostly land and building sales.

You've got to prepare yourself 438 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 2: before you leave, like you got to go outside. You 439 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 2: got to prepare yourself, like there's a war going on 440 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 2: in the streets down below, right, rats the size of hogs. 441 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 2: Remember they had a Ratsar. Remember the city of New 442 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 2: York was naming a Ratsar. And it turns out that 443 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 2: if you leave rats b long enough, it this ain't Ratatui. 444 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 2: They're not cute, they get huge, and so the rats everywhere, 445 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 2: they can't get rid of the trash. So they've got 446 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 2: the trash out on the streets. The rats are getting 447 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 2: into it, the homeless people are getting into it. The 448 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 2: homeless people are violent. The whole deal is just it's rough. 449 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 2: And then you move down to Florida, where all of 450 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 2: a sudden and everybody's done it. Buck moved to Miami 451 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 2: Beach and just couldn't be happier, and he was a 452 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 2: New York guy. Carol Markowitz moved to Boca. She couldn't 453 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 2: be happier. Hannity has moved. I don't know where he is, 454 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 2: but he's somewhere down there. 455 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. 456 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 2: For a number of years, Trump was New York. To me, 457 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,959 Speaker 2: Trump represented New York more than any other single person. 458 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 2: And then he moves Upon Beach, which you know, less 459 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 2: than an hour from Miami. 460 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 3: That area has had a really really. 461 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 2: Explosive level of growth, and to their credit, which is 462 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 2: quite different than what Katrina did to the Houston area, 463 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 2: the people that are moving down there are more likely Republican, 464 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 2: they're well to do, which has left New York without 465 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: kind of the stabilizing foundation that made New York work. 466 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 2: New York was always a bit of a quirk. How 467 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 2: does it not fall into a socialist, big city morass? 468 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 2: And now I think you've finally seen the tipping point 469 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 2: where you have You've had enough people move out that 470 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 2: would have voted against Mamdani and now you're left with 471 00:29:54,440 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 2: an entirely immigrant, first generation socialist, crazy populous So last 472 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 2: one in New York, you know, turn the lights out, 473 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 2: which is going to mean that just like Baltimore, Detroit, Philly, 474 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 2: as Chicago, as this has happened, those people are going 475 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 2: to flee the last few who were holding on, and 476 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 2: that's going to mean that you can't fix the problem 477 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 2: because we've already reached that point in Houston. You can't 478 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 2: fix the problem in Houston because too many people have 479 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 2: moved out. 480 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 4: Now. 481 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 2: People who call themselves Houstonians in this area live in 482 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 2: the villages or bel Air or Katie Crosby, the Woodlands, 483 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 2: League City, Texas City, Galveston, even now and. 484 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 3: Cypress, Magnolia, tom Ball. 485 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 2: So that's what we think of as people who live 486 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 2: in the area, but they can't vote in City of Houston. 487 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 2: Lee and then the Democrat Party in Houston just further 488 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 2: proving that they are a bunch of Mom Donny Wannaby's. 489 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 2: Now they have basically smacked down John Whitmyer with a 490 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 2: non endorsement. Dude, you're years away from him being up 491 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 2: for election.
