It's Night Side with Dan Ray on delig Bzy, Boston's news radio. It
has truly been one of the greatest honors of my life to serve as vice
president to our President Joe Biden. Joe's legacy of accomplishment over his entire career
and over the past three and a half years is unmatched in modern history.
In one term, think about it, in one term as president, he
has already surpassed the legacy of most presidents who served two terms in office.
And I know we are all deeply, deeply grateful for his continuing service to
our nation. That is Kamala Harris, your new presidential candidates for the Democratic
Party, Welcome back to This is Night Side. Gary tankwa for Dan Ray
and joining us right now from Texas, the biggest Kamala Harris fan that I
know. Let's go to Tomas Boston Heremage, welcome to the program. Tell
us your feelings on that comment. Well, I'm laughing. You've probably heard
it all the way from Texas, but no, I'm not Kamala Harris.
Yes, they know, Tommage, they know it's it's called sarcasm. They
know you're right. Uh, We're living in interesting times. And you can
say that what is dawning on me is Uh. The Democratic Party obviously thinks
they can get away with insulting the intelligence of the American people, Uh,
with almost everything they say. Uh, for them to pretend that she is
a mainstream candidate, which she's not. Her voting record in the Senate as
a liberal was worse than Bernie Sanders. And to think that she's had a
distinguished record as vice president when in fact she's done nothing except the outspoken advocate
on abortion issues. To pretend that she was not designated as the borders are
as a means of trying to cover up the fact that she did a horrible
job and trying to deal with the border, to pretend that she hasn't been
part of the cover up. Yeah, let's know, I hear you.
Let's stop. Let's break some of this down a little bit. I want
to start with the border. And obviously you're in Texas and it's more of
a concern to you than than up here, unless you know, you happen
to be in the Cape, and you end up with some people who have
been misplaced, and these poor folks don't know where they're doing or where they
need to live. But like, when has the border ever been great?
Well, Donald Trump was making progress on the border and the wall was working,
and you look at the numbers, I mean at the time he was
shot. You just have to look at the charts and see what the border
record was during his presidency compared to the surge of illegal aliens during Biden's presidency,
and it's night and day. Yeah. But also though, Tomadge,
aren't we talking about a time when families were being separated, parents separated from
children. I mean, there was some inhumane stuff going on. Well,
there's never going to be a process involving dealing with mass quantities of illegal aliens
all at once without having to impose some rather harsh measures in order to try
to enforce border security. The question is which is more important protecting the family
situation of illegal aliens or protecting the health and safety and welfare of legal American
citizens who are damaged by the entry of mass quantities of illegal aliens. Are
damaged. I've damaged. They're damaged in the in the workforce in terms of
the surge of illegal aliens to take jobs away from American people. They're damaged
in terms of these people who come over in many instances have committed crimes.
This is serious damage. This is a serious issue. Okay, Now,
now hang on a minute. They're not hanging present. There are people,
there are people who are also in this country that will commit crimes. I
think it's also unfair to stereotype any illegal alien or someone who comes in this
country looking for a better life that they're a criminal. And then the other
argument that I've heard, I didn't say that. No, I didn't.
You're putting words in my method. I'm not going to let you do that.
I said, these people come across illegally. Some of them commit crimes.
Now, if you want to twist that to something I didn't say,
go ahead and do it all right. Some when you say okay, can
you give me a number? Doubt about that. Can you give me a
number? Nobody has the numbership because they're so vast and and and the mass
qualities of millions, we don't have those numbers. Shit, Gary, And
you know that, Actually I don't. I thought that Maybe you did.
I mean, if you're gonna say some, I mean your ballparker, you
may have a number. Okay, Now in regard to you, will I
will you will to hear from people. You will hear from people. You
will hear from people in the restaurant industry and the service industry that that will
say American citizens don't want to work in this area, they don't want to
work in particular areas, they can't fill the jobs, and the jobs will
only be filled by illegal aliens. What do you say to that, I
say, it's long as we have laws that are supposed to protect the border,
then those laws should be enforced. If they're not going to be enforced,
they should not be the laws. We are a country of laws.
Democrats keep talking about rule of law and so forth, and do they ignore
the laws regarding protecting our borders and border security. So you can talk about
people doing other things that are obviously in clear violation of the law and think
you're making a good point, and I'm going to disagree with you. Okay,
that's fine. That's fine. So when it comes to actually we're going
to take a break because now we know how you, We're going to continue
the discussion about Harris. And also I want to find out where you stand
between these two candidates. Talmas. Harris is going to join us or is
joining us? Right now, presidential historian and as you can tell, he
is from Texas, but we like him anyways. I'm kidding. How much
is back right after this on WBC's Nightside. Now back to Dan ray Line
from the Window World night Side Studios on WBZ News Radio, Gary Tegwave for
Dant time, Tom Much Boston joining us here, presidential historian, political commentator
and no fan of Kamala Harris as we know, and that's one other reasons
why he's here. So let me ask you this, Tummack. You mentioned
her voting record when she was in Congress. If she does win the presidency
because of Congress, do you feel she will have very little power or will
not have the ability to invoke what you feel is a far left philosophy.
Well, she'd be president of the United States and therefore the head of the
executive branch. Yeah, we all know in recent years the power of executive
orders, which has gotten totally out of control under both Presidents Trump and Biden
and their predecessors. So it doesn't depend entirely on Congress. Presidents do unilateral
things all the time. Many they're challenged in court. Sometimes they're struck down
as being outside the power of executive orders. But don't think she's powerless and
that Congress has control over what she does, because we've seen that's not true.
Well, especially with the way the court is leading now the Supreme Court,
it would be more difficult for her to invoke some of that power,
wouldn't it. Well, the number of cases that get to the United States
Supreme Court involving the abuse of executive power in any given year might be two
or three or four. If she's signing dozens, if not hundreds, of
executive orders that are at odds with congressional law and laws in place, some
of those are going to stay in effect. We don't have enough court pipeline
to address abuses in excessive executive orders. That's been a problem for some time,
and it will certainly still be a problem in the coming four years.
Now we don't know. Well, you just mentioned her political leanings in her
voting record, but a legitimate concern about Vice President Harris becoming the president of
the United States is her lack of international experience right where vice president will be
involved with some of that, but for mostly they're a figureheader, they're upfront
person. Then they go to things that the president does not deem as important
to attend or something they can't make because their kid has a birthday or something.
But it is a concern about international affairs. Your thoughts on that.
Definitely concerned about international affairs. I mean, obviously, the president of the
United States is a commander in chief. We're living in an extraordinarily dangerous world.
There's reason to think that with people like Putin in the head of China
and North Korea and Iran at large and growing stronger every day, who knows
what is going to happen in the next four years. We better have a
strong commander in chief who understands international affairs, who understands the use of military
power. And Kama Harris has absolutely no experience in that area. But it's
not just her lack of uh knowledge and experience in foreign affairs. She wants
to buy her own statements publicly. She wants to abolish private insurance. She
wants to help here well, whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. She backed that,
She backed down on that, She backed down on that. She it
was a takesy backsey. She I understand she said it, and I disagree
with it. I'm with you on that. I disagree with it, but
she kind of backpedaled on that, and that's not going to happen. You,
you and I, But that's not going to happen. She has no
chance. She has no chance with that. But that's fine. Continue.
I just wanted to set the record straight on that. Uh, I'll take
your word for it tonight, I'll double check that. I know they've been
showing that that clip quite a bit on you have, but yeah, I
know they're And she still I assume she still wants to ban fracking. She
still wants to eliminate gas cars. You talk about an impact on American industries.
She favors reparations for slavery that's coming up on two hundred years ago.
Uh, she's uh uh So these are some of the domestic issues. But
getting back I want to get back to incause some of those issues I don't
think are going to come up anyways. Go ahead, and by the way,
looking to I understand about the few I understand about the economy. I
get it. You're in Texas oil gas. There has to be a transition,
but we do have to transit. We do have to transition away from
fossil fuels at some point well, we have to do it fruently. We
have to do it in a way that doesn't destroy American industry. I agree
with that, and lose millions of jobs. I agree with that too.
It has to be done so that you can Why do you think, why
do you think so many people are moving from California to Texas because politicians like
Kamala Harrison Gavin Newsom. Do you realize that in the year twenty fifty,
as it stands now, there's going to be more people in Texas than in
New York and California combined. Why is that? Because those people don't know
how to government, They don't understand the will of the people, and they're
driving people away. I don't know if you in Boston are aware of that,
but that's what's going on. Back to the international issues, Okay,
anybody thinks she could be commander in chief, in charge of America's place in
the world, a woman with no experience whatsoever, no demonstration of strength of
any kind during her four years except to be an advocate for abortion, and
they think she's ready to lead our armed forces in an increasingly dangerous world.
I don't see how anybody could resec conclusion, did they feel that way about
Trump when he was first elected or did you feel that way about Trump because
he was untested. The good news about Trump is in this election, we
knows he had four years at the HELM and for the most part in international
affairs, he did a good job. With her, she's been vice president
and done nothing to demonstrate she knows anything about international affairs. So the choice
for American voters as far as international affairs, do you want somebody who's actually
done it for four years with largely good results, or do you want somebody
who's never done it at all and think that somehow they're going to step up
and work miracles. Now, the problem you have is, while you're right,
those are facts, do American voters care? I hope Americans care about
national security? Backup, that's not the question. I get what you said.
Well, no, no, it's not my question. Hold on a
minute. You're right international affairs, no experience with international affairs, agreed,
And therefore, how can she protect national security? The voters thinking about and
my answer to your question one more time is yes, they care, because
we care about national security. And if you're going to maintain national security,
you have to have a president who is going to be effective as commander in
chief. Well, would I vote? They care a lot about that.
I think the voters vite. I think the voters care about who they like,
and I don't think an enters into their mind at all. I think
the American voter. Basically, it's a popularity contest. You and I can
agree to disagree. Oh, I think the American vote. You know,
American voters care about their pocketbook. They care about inflation, they care about
their wages going down, They care about an invasion of from the border.
They care about a dangerous world. They aren't carrying. For now, in
the first three days of the honeymoon, she's trying to establish some likability credibility.
But as these facts become clear and clear between now and November, they're
going to care about national security. They're going to care about their economic condition.
That's what impacts them directly, not who wins the popularity contest Tomage.
For the last three years, the economy under this administration has been terrific.
Have you forgotten that inflation was the highest in twenty twenty two that it had
been in forty years. Yeah, there was a spike. Have you sad
that I have not forgotten it. There was a spike, but over the
last couple of years it's been great and it came down and we all know,
we've talked about this before. The economy is cyclical. You can't you
listen. Clinton balanced the budget. Okay, so fine, I mean,
what exactly did what did exactly did Trump do that affected the economy? And
I'm asking you what did he do that made the economy so great when he
was in power. Well, for one thing, he imposed the tax cuts
that really benefited people at three hundred thousand dollars and the little guy didn't get
the benefit. People think that's your opinion. I disagree with it, okay,
because I don't. I don't. I don't think it trickled that as
much as people think. Well, you can think what you want. And
all I know is who has When you talk about trickle down people who is
supporting Trump? We're working class the people who used to support Democrats are now
solidly behind Trump. If they're not getting any trickle down a fan effect,
why are they all in mass supporting Trump? Because Trump feels like an outsider.
They feel like an outsider because as moderates they've been left behind by the
Democrats, which is an issue. That's an issue. But no, people
don't even know. You think people don't even know their economic condition. You
don't think people know that they were better off under a Trump economy than they
were under Biden economy. Economy, do you think that Biden has a thirty
seven percent of approval rating because people feel great about the Biden economy? How
can you eat facts? No, I don't. I think they had.
He had a thirty seven percent approval rating because people thought he was too old.
That's what I think. I mean, you talk about a guy in
Trump. You could talk about a guy in Trump who misspeaks constantly, who
who lies? Who does? And they all do? But who lies?
He talks out of is you know what? He doesn't deal with facts.
But people just feel that he's out for the little guy and that's why they
follow his lead. That's why the people don't. You say people vote with
that pocketbook. I disagree. I think people vote with it's a popularity context.
I think they like the color of their hair. I think they're like
like the way they talk to them. I think the way That's what I
think. Right, You said that four minutes ago, and I said,
I respectfully disagree with you. I think they vote their pocketbook. I think
they vote about whether this person is going to be a capable commander in chief
and protect the United States or not. I think that's when they when you
enter that voting, they're not thinking about the color of their hair, or
the color of the skin or anything else. They're thinking about am I going
to be better off with this person or that person? And they're going to
make that choice knowing that Trump's got all kinds of horrible issues and a record
that has lots of wars all over it. Harris has her political record.
They're gonna have to make that decision. But in my opinion, you're not
going to disagree. I think they're gonna figure out am I gonna be better
off economically under Trump or Harris? No, I'm not gonna be safer under
Trump or Harris. I think those are going to be the outcome determinants that
will be the first and foremost in voters' minds. All Right, I'm gonna
throw something at Talmage next. I'm gonna see if he knows what Bratt means.
That's coming up next here on wbz's night Side Night Side with Dan Ray
on w b Z, Boston's news radio. Okay, back here on WBZ,
Gary Tangwain for Dan Ray and knight Side Tomach Boston is joining us here.
Political commentator, presidential historian. Okay, Tomadge, Let's let's play a
little game here. Do you think one of the things I am disappointed in
h is the fact that there's not gonna be a true Democratic invention. I
hate I hate the TV show on both sides. I hate it. I
think you should take the money. I think the Republicans and Democrats, if
you know who the nominee is, I think you could. You should cancel
it. You should take the money, and you should donate it or use
it for better purposes. I hate it. Like the Trump thing, everybody
knew it was Trump, it was a TV show. We didn't need to
go through all that. Same thing with the Democrats. I mean, if
it's gonna be Harris, it's going to be Harris. Why bother with the
dog and pony stuff? And you know I'm in the minority of that.
But what happened? What do you think do you think the Democrats should have
waited, had a convention and had Shapiro or Mark Kelly or Bursher run against
her and try to try to get another candidate in there, well, it
certainly would have made the process a lot more interesting. But when Biden immediately
after saying he was pulling out of the race, you know, ten minutes
later saying and I want to endorse Kama Harris, and then all the other
leading Democrats thus far the section of Barack Obama fell into line and supported her,
And they got on the phones and got the chairman of all fifty state
delegations within twenty four hours to say they were behind her, and all the
delegates more than two thirds committed to her in a space of twenty four hours.
It was all over. Yeah, I know, I think that's I
think that sucks. Well. Yeah, and particularly you know throughout you know,
the buzzword in this campaign from the Biden and Democratic is the word democracy.
Trump is a threat to democracy. How they can act like they've acted
in a democratic fashion when Harris has not gotten one vote, has not gotten
one delegate, and yet here she's going to be her party's nominee. Yeah,
I just I totally disagreed with it. And I thought there was a
chance. I thought there was a chance, even though Biden came out an
indoorstir. I said, well, let's just wait and see what happens here,
because there was talk of some of these other candidates. And then the
money, I said, as soon as the money starts coming in, not
the money she inherited, because I didn't buy into all that stuff. Because
what everybody, all the talking hands were saying, well, it's very difficult
to transfer the money to Joel. Nothing's difficult. Okay, we have seen
too many firsts. We have seen too many things happen that people say couldn't
happen. A reality show host became president, right, it happened before with
an actor in Reagan. But at least Reagan had some political experience being governor
of California and being head of the Actors' Union. But I mean, as
Trump became president, I said, anything can happen. They said, oh,
we have to make a decision right away for Harris, because we only
have one hundred days of the convention. The news cycle is twenty seconds.
It doesn't matter. It's the shorter the better because there's less opportunity for her
to screw up. Okay, or for anybody to screw up for that matter.
So I think it sucks. I wish there was a convention. I
wish we had some debate. I wish we had some other candidates. I
think they hurt themselves quite frankly, I really do. You might've got some
moderates to come to the Democratic Party if they had gone through that process.
Even if she did come out on top. But as soon as the money
went to her, as soon as the new money, the new money went
to her, thee hundred million that came in from new donors. I think
it was on Sunday night. I was watching I Go, It's over,
She's there. So that's my feeling on that. I thought it would the
base and the Democratic Party forever in twentieth and twenty first century has been in
large part African Americans and other minorities, and all these people who were so
called potential challengers, they'd all got their eyes on twenty twenty eight, and
they knew that it would be political suicide if all the tea leaves showed that
Harris basically headed right. Well, I mean this, but Toma, you
know, it's probably a deal they made with Biden, right like Biden says,
I'll step down if you if she stays, right, That's what I
think happened. We don't know, that's my gus. You know. I
think it's like, you know, because he finally, he finally bails because
if he stayed, he was gonna get smoked. I just think no doubt.
I mean, I you know, and I'm a registered Democrat. I
think he was going to well, hell, cloon, he's the biggest Democrat
alive. I mean he knew it too, but I think he was just
gonna get okay. So yeah, Tomach, how do you think do you
think Trump makes a mistake? Does he screw up? Does he say something?
Does he do something? Because really, if you look at the numbers
now, all he has to do is shut up. I don't know.
The new numbers in the last two days seem to think it's going to be
a horse race down to the wire. And do I think He's going to
make mistakes between here and November? Yes? Do I think Harris is going
to make mistakes between here in November? Yes? And then will they all
set each other? I don't know. Uh, every election in the last
couple of decades, it all boils down to the swing states, and so
who Harry Pictures or vice presidential running mate? Do you think a guy?
Do you think you have to go with your pause of Pennsylvania? I think
right now, if I had to bet on somebody, that's who I'd bet
on. Do you think the Jewish thing matters? I mean, my god,
I hope it does. Well. It didn't matter. It didn't matter
for Joe Lieberman, It's not going to matter for Shapiro. I mean,
you know, people are asking me, does it matter if it's a woman
or a man? Doesn't matter if it's as you are, a gentile.
I think Americans want competence. They want somebody who they think will do a
good job. And I think that's what's hopefully and I truly believe is what
makes people vote the way they do. They truly think they're voting for the
person who will do the best job. And whether a person's Jewish or gentile,
black or white or brown or Asian or anything else, who is the
most capable person, in my opinion, to be able to handle the most
difficult and challenging job in the world. Right, do you know what a
brat is. I've seen brat it's some term that's being used in music,
and here it is here, it is here, it is here. It
is A brat is authentic, confident, a little messy. They like to
party, may say some stupid things at times, and they're care free.
So the brats, if you will, seem to be endorsing Kamala. Now,
these brats may be eighteen to twenty two or eighteen to twenty one years
old. They could possibly vote. So here's my question. Will the TikTok
generation? Will they have an impact on this election? I doubt it.
I don't think those people who are of that mindset are thinking much about politics.
I think they're thinking about being carefree and cool and wearing the right clothes
and eating at the right restaurant. So, Tomage, what if it's cool
to vote for Kamala? Since I don't know anything about that particular mindset and
generation. You have kids? Do you have kids? Do you have kids?
I have a son who's thirty six and a daughter who's thirty three.
Yeah, okay, so yeah you wouldn't I have teenagers. I have a
nineteen year old and a twenty twenty two year old. And I'm telling you
I think it's insane. Okay, I think it's in I think it's insane.
It could have an impact because I do think they'll think it's cool to
vote fa Kamala, and I think that people that had no intention of voting
and no intention of paying it, intention of paying attention. Will Is it
going to be enough? I don't know. I don't know. I mean
there will be people who feel that way, but how many people there are
and whether it's enough to impact the election. I think what's more likely to
impact the election is how many votes Robert F. Kennedy gets well. I
agree with that, and that's a good point. We talked about that early.
We had a pollster on from Suffolk. He's very good, by the
way, Dave Pelly Logos. Check it out tomorrow. We'll have it up
on the up on iHeart Yeah nights Oh thank you, Rob Knightside on demand
dot com. I was gonna say iHeart but Nightside on demand dot com.
If you go to that, he was very good and and you know,
uh, Kennedy's that's he's a factor. He's a big The independent vote is
a big time factor for the Democrats, and I seem to think it's going
to hurt the Democratic candidate more than that will hurt Trump. Oh yeah,
no, no, no, it will. It will. That's why Trump
was buddying up to him. Yeah, there's no doubt it will. Because
the Democrats are trying to separate themselves from Hell. The Kennedy's are trying to
separate themselves from him. Tom, what You've been a great guest. You're
always be very entertaining. I appreciate your thoughts, and we'll do it again.
Do you have anything you would like to promote. No, I just
encourage people to stay tuned and try to discern the facts amidst all the hoopla,
and try to focus on who is best suited to leave the country the
next four years, both domestically and abroad an increasingly dangerous world and and and
and every day is important and and there's so much spind going on there everywhere
on both sides that it's a real challenge to reach sound conclusions. And the
only way you're going to do that is by paying close attention to both sides.
Uh and And on the one hand, it makes for a very interesting
year. I can't there's never been a year that seems like it had you
know, an assassination attempt and a president on the verge of his convention with
drumming. We've never had any of this, you know, back to back
to back. Oh, it's crazy. It's We've had a pandemic. We've
had a pandemic. We've had a president pull out. There's been an assassination
on a president. It's crazy, it's insane. We've had a total breakdown
by by the Secret Service. Oh my god. So you know that's their
job and I blew it, and I mean the whole thing. Every day's
an adventure. But there's a lot at stake here, and so as entertaining
on the one hand as it is, people need to realize how incredibly important
this is if we want the next four years to be the best that it
can be instead of the worst that it can be. Hey, I said,
you're entertaining, not the topic. This is the difference I talked to.
I know I still were going to let you go, but I have
to get this in. I talked to a consultant on Generation Z from Ernst
and Young and I said, and he talked about how their attitude is and
these are my kids. I don't feel like working today. Or I can't
be in at eight because I have a yoga class at eight and I don't
have to be until nine. Or I'm not going to work a six day
or I'm not going to work a second job because people like me have spoiled
our children. And I just think it's insane because when I first get into
how about this, I can't there to meet with the head of Israel because
I got to speak to sorority in Indianapolis and make that decision. I mean,
the same mindset that you just described is in place with Kamala Harris Well
Or was that for political reasons because she didn't want to meet with Israel because
of the protests that have been going on when it comes to whether it's Palestine
or Israel. I mean, there's a lot, Come on, there's a
lot more to that. It looked there was. The Massachusetts delegation didn't should
show up. They're here in Nan Yahoo because they don't want to get caught
in the crossfires. They don't want to piss off anybody who's pro Palestinian.
I mean, it's nuts, that's nuts. So I'm not going to totally
buy into that. But my point is is I said to this consultant,
I said, if this doesn't change, we're are thirty forty years from now.
Because they say workaholics are bad, well, you know what, workaholics
is kind of how we got to be where we are. And if we
become a country of people who are just sitting back and not doing the extra
said, we'll be a second great country. That's my concern, the work
ethic of America. That's my concern. That is definitely a legitimate concern.
That one I'm worried about. Because I talked to a butt of mine the
other day who's retired as a dentist. He said, maybe I worked too
much. Maybe I go, Look, the reason you got two houses is
because you work too much. The reason you paid for your kids college educations
and they don't have any debt is because you work too much. People don't
get it. You know, if you want to get ahead, you have
to work too much. Tomas'll talk to are in agreement. You and I
are in agreement on thattage. All right, we'll talk to you later.
Be good, all right. Tomas Boston joins us from Texas. Uh,
My buddy sam Mitler's coming up at eleven o'clock. He is I should actually
should put Sam and Toma John together at some point. That would be very
good because I think he just he's Sam's is a comedian. Uh. He
is a political follower. He is a writer, a producer. He is
an Emmy Award winner. Uh. And we'll try to laugh a little bit
about what's going on coming up at eleven o'clock right here on WBZ Night Side.
Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World night Side Studios on
WBZ News Radio. Okay, you're stuck with me, Gary Tank right here
until midnight dance, Get the night off, six one, seven, ten
thirty. Sam Metler, comedian, Emmy Award winning producer and writer Jones is
coming up next. He's got I said to Rob, we should have put
he in Talma John together. Let's see how that would have gone. Uh.
Both very entertaining, I think, with different points of view by Sammy.
Jones is kind of coming up at eleven o'clock right here on WBC.
All right, Christian peabty, Hi, Christian, what's up on anybody?
Oh boy, good god? You got the time Lynn on your mind.
You're on the night side, Okay, Gary, hopefully I'll be better than
that previous call. I don't. It's a low act to follow. I'm
sure you're already Yeah, right, I could speak. I'm not bugs Bunny.
With Joe Biden, I agree and I disagree with you about Joe Biden.
Where I disagree is I think he still has enough mojo, if you
will, to serve as president. Whether or not he could get re elected,
I'm not sure. But I think the big challenge that he would have
faced, and you mentioned it is where I agree with you his optics and
image. And you know that's been a problem historically in American politics since the
eighteen thirties. William Henry Harrison invented the whole log cabin campaign, right and
yeah, And the whole thing about that was William Henry Harrison never grew up
in the word happened. His parents were wealthy Virginia. And yeah, I
mean that's politics for you, right, you know, you know, I
love it just reminds me of Bruce Springsteen when when Springsteen did the thing on
Broadway and he wrote racing in the street, and he said, I wrote
racing in his street. I didn't even have my license. Yeah, Johnny
Cash wrote about all these being in prison. He was never in prison.
Yeah, all, it's all a bunch of crap. Look, here's the
thing, here's the thing. Look, ye, Biden's a good man.
And look, I have voted Republican, I have voted Democrat. I just
don't I don't think Trump's a good man. If Trump was a Democrat,
I wouldn't vote for him. I just don't think he's a good person,
you know. I mean, that's it. If Nicky Haley was running,
I'd look at Nicki Haley, I'd say, what's going on? I absolutely
would consider it. It's all optics right now. And unfortunately, because the
news cycle is every twenty seconds and you're on camera all the time, the
president has really become such a spokesperson and Joe can't get it done and he
and that's it, Like, look, can he be alert enough to run
the country. I don't know, but it doesn't look that way. Lynn,
And that's the problem. All right, I gotta go a good call,
buddy, guys. Let's go to Paul Innantasket. Paul, you're on
WBZ, Hey, what's going on? Then you do it. I'm good
for what's on your mind? I got a couple of things. The first
thing, that's straight in the country. You need term limits. You're gonna
get that in, but everyone in this says we don't really need that,
So you gotta get rid of all of them guys straight in the country.
That's the first thing. Congress. Yeah, yeah, let's talk about that
for a minute. I mean, I'm not against it, certainly not against
it. It just seems it takes so damn long when someone gets in there
to make headway. So I guess the answer is, well, if you
have term limits and you have to have a greater turnover, and then you
would be able to I it sounds great, but I don't I don't know
if it would work because it takes so damn long to get CREP done.
Well. I think another great thing would be the president's you're run for maybe
six years. Yeah, Paul, I gotta go. But that's not crazy.
The problem is is if they're like eighty one, you can't run for
a six year term. But I'm not opposed to that because that's what everybody
does do They govern to get reelected. That's what they do. That's not
crazy. It's never gonna happen, but it's not crazy. All right,
we're gonna make this one quick. Let's go to Mark and dry. Mark,
you get about thirty seconds. What's on your mind? Mark? What's
up killing? Thirty seconds? Thirty seconds? Good night? Okay, Mike
in Boston, make it quick. Oh he's gone too. Oh we're gonna
do rapid fire. But let's see if we can get John in Boston.
On John, make it quick. What's up Jerry Mortgages? If you bought
the same house you bought four years ago, cross Street, the motors payment
is double Kalala Harris. She paid the bonds for the people who rided the
and the riots the black communities, uh three years ago. She paid the
bonds and helped collet the defunding of the police for how did that help Black
America? That was black communities that were damaged? Doctor Function's a Democrat,
funny gain to function research that killed a lot of Black Americas. Even Obama
made gata function research illegal. How was that better for Black America? We
get illegal immigrants, we got we got guys covered from terrorist countries into the
city of Boston. We got measles. June thirtieth, there was the thing
here in Needles in terminally. How's that better for Boston? Gary? It's
not even Bill Clinton said it's about the economy, Gary, It's about personality.
Kamala Harris's bankrupt. Her record is bankrupt. I mean, John,
you could you certainly have your opinion. I don't think she has a record.
That's the problem. She's a vice president, she doesn't she doesn't have
any control. Oh yeah. She called for the defunding of cops. She
said that, I'm personally and personally I'm against that, and personally I'm against
that. So it's the less of two evils. Do you want a guy
that was willing to overthrow the government or do you want her Sabbie who demanded
taking vaccines Trumble? Was it Bien? It was Bien. He is the
dictator, who's the one forcing people to take the vaccine. Well, I'm
pro vaccination. I have to go. But I mean to me, I'm
pro vaccination. I'm sorry. I've had every vaccine. I've had every vaccination.
I'm pro vaccination. But I disagree with defund defunding the police. I
disagree with that. I'm not going to agree with everything she stands for,
but I can't. Again, everybody thinks like I hate Republicans, I don't.
I have voted on both sides of the Aisle. I just cannot vote
for a man that sat there on January sixth while people were killed, while
these I gotta be careful people attacked our government. I'm sorry, I can't
do it. Sam Mettler, California. There you goes from California. That's
all you need to know. He's funny, he's political, he's one an
Emmy. He's coming up after eleven right here on WBC
