So that's going to be fun 32 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:27,319 when he makes that all free for you, quote free. 33 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,319 This is a man thirty three years old. This is 34 00:02:31,319 --> 00:02:37,080 a guy who believes capitalism is theft. He is now 35 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,400 going to be the mayor of America's financial capital. What 36 00:02:41,599 --> 00:02:47,159 could go wrong? By the way, Charlotte Banks, if you 37 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:51,759 are an employee right now at a Charlotte area banking institution, 38 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,199 got an idea for you. If you are not the 39 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,639 person to make this call, you need to get it 40 00:02:58,719 --> 00:03:02,560 in front of somebody who may this call you need 41 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,840 to be recruiting heavily from Wall Street. You guys need 42 00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:10,879 to be making all sorts of overtures, all all sorts 43 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:15,759 of contract offers to people working in New York City 44 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:22,240 right now. Just bombard them, hire your headhunters, go get them, 45 00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:26,319 bring them here, because we're the second largest financial capital 46 00:03:26,879 --> 00:03:32,280 right well we yeah, we became that after we we 47 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,719 bought Bank of Earth, got them out of San Francisco. 48 00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:40,599 See that Charlotte saved all those bankers from San Francisco 49 00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:47,240 before that collapse. And now New York voting to to 50 00:03:47,319 --> 00:03:50,840 do a San Francisco style suicide for themselves. Now we 51 00:03:50,919 --> 00:03:52,840 can go get a bunch of them and bring them here. 52 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,400 What do you say, so you could totally take that idea. 53 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,319 Just might want to recommend some sort of screening that 54 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,759 might go on there with the candidates that you do 55 00:04:02,879 --> 00:04:05,319 bring to the Queen City, because we do not need 56 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,639 any of the people that voted for this zoron mem Danny. 57 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,240 We don't need his supporters coming here. We want to 58 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,000 get everybody that voted against him or that didn't even 59 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,600 vote in the Democrat primary. We want those people to come. 60 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,759 This guy and I say the word communist. And I'm 61 00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:26,000 not saying that, like, oh, ye're just a dirty comedy. 62 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,240 I'm not saying it. I mean he is a dirty comedy. Well, 63 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,439 I do think he bathes because he's rich. He's a 64 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,839 Nepo baby. Yeah. One of his parents I think it's 65 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,519 his father is a professor. You want to take a 66 00:04:39,519 --> 00:04:44,040 guest where that's right? Columbia University, I know, because of 67 00:04:44,079 --> 00:04:48,439 course it had to be Columbia University. Dude is a 68 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:54,240 self avowed socialist, which is what communists call themselves because 69 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:58,519 they know the word communist has such terrible baggage, namely 70 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,439 the one hundred million and dead bodies attached to this 71 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,839 evil ideology, so they call themselves socialists because it sounds better. 72 00:05:06,879 --> 00:05:12,399 And look, they're European socialists. It's Look, it's totally fine. 73 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,959 Home values on Long Island probably going to skyrocket as 74 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:22,720 people flee New York City Florida as well. The governor Florida, 75 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,360 Ron DeSantis went to Twitter and made a comment about 76 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:31,040 how they're going to have this, you know and more 77 00:05:31,079 --> 00:05:34,160 a greater influx of more people coming from New York 78 00:05:34,199 --> 00:05:37,560 down to Florida. But also, you know, we're going to 79 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:42,040 see financial cities like ours here in Charlotte, but other 80 00:05:42,319 --> 00:05:47,519 you know, fast growing regions and cities and states around 81 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,439 the country are probably also going to see more net migration. 82 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,199 It's just sad, but I don't think they learn without 83 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:03,199 the pain. And these I saw a video just reposted 84 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,600 the video of when it was announced that this guy, 85 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:11,160 ma'am Danny had won. And it was a video from 86 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:16,519 the floor among his supporters, and so they're all like 87 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:21,720 cheering and going crazy. They finally have won, right, we won. 88 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,800 Now we're going to get to implement all of our socialism. Yes. 89 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:31,519 And what is notable about the video, namely the participants 90 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,720 in the video. The people that you see in the video, 91 00:06:34,879 --> 00:06:40,360 they're all white, which have you been to New York City? 92 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:47,920 That is not exactly the predominant demographic for the Democrat Party. See, 93 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,879 but this is the socialist wing of the Democrat Party 94 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:57,519 which is ascendant in the Democrat Party. Why see my 95 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:02,000 initial comments about the education system. When you Indoctrin eight 96 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,199 kids that communism is cool and capitalism is theft, as 97 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,720 this guy says, you cannot be surprised when the little 98 00:07:10,759 --> 00:07:14,839 activists that you have trained up now want the power 99 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,079 that you thought they were going to help protect for 100 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,800 you see, when you train up your street thugs, right, 101 00:07:20,839 --> 00:07:23,759 your little Red Guard army, when you bring those people 102 00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:28,000 into the party and you offer them the ability to 103 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,639 sniff the throne, they eventually want the throne. And that's 104 00:07:32,639 --> 00:07:37,600 what we just saw. The establishment. And don't get me wrong, 105 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:42,560 I've I've got some commentary for the establishment Democrats as well. 106 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:47,839 You reap what you sew. Okay, you guys are just 107 00:07:47,959 --> 00:07:50,720 as much to blame because all of this that we 108 00:07:50,839 --> 00:07:55,920 just saw in New York City, this mayor's race, these 109 00:07:55,959 --> 00:08:00,160 are the fruits of your labor. You built this. One 110 00:08:00,199 --> 00:08:05,160 of the only things socialists build, actually is chaos. That's 111 00:08:05,319 --> 00:08:11,720 what they create, chaos. This from the New York Post. 112 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:17,560 Socialist Zorn Mehmdani's stunning victory over three term ex Governor 113 00:08:17,639 --> 00:08:22,319 Andrew Cuomo in the mayoral primary is quote a political 114 00:08:22,519 --> 00:08:26,279 earthquake that will pressure the National Democrat Party to move 115 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:32,440 further left. According to political analysts, there's a guy quoted. 116 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:37,480 I think it's a guy, Basil Smickel or Smichel. He 117 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:43,960 says it's an important moment in political history. Ma'm Danny's 118 00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:47,320 victory provides a moment for progressives and younger voters to 119 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,759 shape the future of the Democrat Party. There is no doubt. 120 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:56,159 Lee Maheringov, director of the Merriston Institute for Public Opinion, 121 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,759 said it's a political earthquake, an unknown Defeating Andrew Cuomo 122 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,360 is a changing of the guard. More Democrat voters are 123 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:10,399 younger and their views have to be taken into account. 124 00:09:11,759 --> 00:09:13,919 I've been talking about this for years. I've been calling 125 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,919 the Democrats the Elysium Party for years. No better example 126 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,480 of it than what we just saw. The uber wealthy 127 00:09:23,159 --> 00:09:28,879 and the affluent, white female liberals or the awfls, the awfls, 128 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,799 the awfuls. They are what gave this guy his victory. 129 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:40,360 People with the college degrees and white upper middle class 130 00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:46,840 and above. That was his base, the working crowd. They 131 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:52,639 voted for Cuomo and they lost. Now there's still a 132 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,559 general election. We shall see what happens there. Here's a 133 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,480 great idea.

I got a message from Mark 155 00:11:11,919 --> 00:11:16,879 on Twitter who says, I saw an awful. That's an 156 00:11:16,919 --> 00:11:20,960 affluent white female liberal awfl I saw an awful on 157 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,759 Twitter this morning, saying how excited she was because now 158 00:11:24,799 --> 00:11:30,200 they can actually show how well socialism works. I'm looking 159 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,840 forward to it as well. It's finally gonna really be tried. Everybody. 160 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:41,000 Oh my gosh, it's so amazing. Transport Workers Union president 161 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:46,639 John Samuelson said, quote, the results of this primary are epic. 162 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,720 The Transport Workers Union was one of the few labor unions, 163 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,080 and he was like one of the only labor leaders 164 00:11:55,879 --> 00:11:59,919 to pay Mamdanie any mind whatsoever. Most of the other 165 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,159 unions and leaders back to Andrew Cuomo. Ma'm denny's economic 166 00:12:04,279 --> 00:12:08,120 populist proposals to make life more affordable by soaking the 167 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,879 rich with higher taxes to pay for freebies resonated with 168 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,679 blue collar voters, including bus and subway workers. He represents. 169 00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:21,799 According to him, now, according to the exit polling, that's 170 00:12:21,919 --> 00:12:29,000 not true. It appealed to people who have guilt. They 171 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,639 have guilt about their wealth. They believe the Western civilization 172 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:39,480 and America specifically, is inherently systemically institutionally racist and sexist 173 00:12:39,519 --> 00:12:44,480 and depressive, and so they want to give away the 174 00:12:44,519 --> 00:12:48,240 wealth to I mean other people's wealth, to the less 175 00:12:48,399 --> 00:12:54,039 fortunate and the oppressed. Right, this is a massive experiment 176 00:12:54,279 --> 00:13:01,720 in virtue signaling or suicidal empathy, if you will. Now 177 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,480 New York Post reports that Andrew Cuomo is just the 178 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:09,240 latest scandal scarred candidate to fail in a comeback bid 179 00:13:09,279 --> 00:13:13,000 after resigning as governor. I mean it was a long 180 00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:16,039 time ago. Remember it was way back in twenty twenty one, 181 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:21,080 so nobody remembers that when he was facing sexual misconduct accusations, 182 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:26,679 which he denied. This was the guy that the establishment 183 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:31,320 Democrats put up to run. This was the guy Andrew Cuomo. 184 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:39,080 Andrew Cuomo had so besmirched his reputation and his legacy. 185 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:44,559 It wasn't just the sexual harassment or misconduct accusations. He 186 00:13:44,759 --> 00:13:49,399 had angered teachers and their unions for not giving them 187 00:13:49,399 --> 00:13:54,480 everything they wanted every time they demanded it. He had, remember, 188 00:13:54,879 --> 00:13:59,360 locked everybody down as governor and may or may not 189 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:04,759 have killed a couple thousand elderly people with his policy 190 00:14:04,879 --> 00:14:12,639 locking all of the nursing homes. But he's also old, right, 191 00:14:12,759 --> 00:14:15,639 He's part of this like sort of dynasty thing that 192 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:21,480 the Democrats have going on in their party, and maybe 193 00:14:21,559 --> 00:14:26,200 in years past he may have he may have been 194 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:30,360 able to pull this out. Maybe, but I don't think. 195 00:14:30,679 --> 00:14:37,039 I don't think after Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, the coup 196 00:14:37,039 --> 00:14:43,240 against Biden and the the installation of Kamala Harris, right, 197 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:48,919 the rigging of the primary against Bernie Sanders, I don't think. 198 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,759 Like I think a lot of younger Democrats are really 199 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,440 mad that they don't actually get to practice the democracy 200 00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:01,919 that the establishment people keep harping on. Also, Cuomo ran 201 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,559 a pretty bad campaign. He focused almost entirely on Trump, 202 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,399 and that's I mean, that might get you a job 203 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,919 as like the Manhattan prosecutor or something, but it didn't help. 204 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,200 You're not talking to voters about stuff that actually matters 205 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,919 to them. Right, they may want to appoint a DA 206 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,080 that's going to go after Donald Trump and you know, 207 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,000 charge him with hundreds of crimes, so then you can 208 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:34,000 run around saying he's a convicted felon, Like that's fine 209 00:15:34,039 --> 00:15:36,960 for a DA, but for the mayor, you want somebody 210 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:42,399 who understands the challenges you have, and that's somebody you 211 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:47,879 want in that position. Of course, if you're outnumbered by awfuls, 212 00:15:48,279 --> 00:15:51,120 well you're out of luck. So you might want to 213 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:56,159 move out of New York City because they just keep 214 00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:01,840 they just keep electing worse and worse candidates. You may 215 00:16:01,879 --> 00:16:06,240 recall there were other defeated candidates that were trying comebacks, 216 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:11,080 like remember this guy, Elliot Spitzer, Remember that guy Client 217 00:16:11,159 --> 00:16:15,000 number nine, He tried to come back. It did not 218 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:19,720 go well. Who else? Oh, in this very election last night, 219 00:16:20,559 --> 00:16:23,399 Anthony Wiener, he was trying to come back too. He 220 00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:26,440 was running for a seat on the New York City 221 00:16:26,559 --> 00:16:32,080 City Council. And yeah, he did not fare very very 222 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,080 well either. He lost to his pretty flaccid performance for Wiener. 223 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,759 What else do we have? Oh? One Democrat party source 224 00:16:39,799 --> 00:16:42,320 said that a Mam Danny victory will cause headaches for 225 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:47,879 other party incumbents. Fellow Democrats socialists may feel emboldened to 226 00:16:48,159 --> 00:16:54,399 challenge Democrat incumbents for Congress, such as Dan Goldman and 227 00:16:54,559 --> 00:17:00,440 Jerry Nadler. And I am here for it. Seriously, Democrats, 228 00:17:01,279 --> 00:17:05,640 congratulations on your victory. You have earned all of this, 229 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,559 all right.

So 251 00:18:16,319 --> 00:18:19,240 you are saying that Wiener failed to perform last night. 252 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,519 I yes, he did. He absolutely did. It happens to 253 00:18:23,559 --> 00:18:27,440 a lot of guys. It's okay, John, another John up 254 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,799 in Jersey, says, not just anger at the legacy candidates, 255 00:18:30,839 --> 00:18:34,119 the people voted for free everything as well as defunding 256 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,559 the police. I pray the middle and lower class folks 257 00:18:37,599 --> 00:18:40,480 who need to escape are able to do so. No, see, 258 00:18:40,519 --> 00:18:45,039 they never can. The Holy POLOI they're always trapped, you know, 259 00:18:45,759 --> 00:18:48,480 the uber wealthy that live up in you know, Westchester, 260 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,720 like where AOC came from. She's not a Queen's girl. 261 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,160 She came from Westchester, okay, but being a Long Island 262 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,920 or anything north of the Bronx is Canada in my mind, 263 00:19:00,599 --> 00:19:03,440 and that's north of the Bronx. Oh she claims to 264 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,359 be a Bronx. Was it a Queen's girl or a 265 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,200 Bronx girl? I don't even remember. It's a lie though, 266 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:14,039 it's a lie either way. Zorn kowame Mamdani, that's who 267 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,880 just won the Democrat primary for mayor of New York City, 268 00:19:17,319 --> 00:19:23,759 self avowed socialist, ran as a Democrat socialist in a tweet. 269 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,200 I don't know from when this is. I think it 270 00:19:26,279 --> 00:19:29,799 was probably around the summer of fiery but mostly peaceful 271 00:19:29,839 --> 00:19:34,200 protests of love. He says. We don't need an investigation 272 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,079 to know that the New York Police Department is racist, 273 00:19:37,519 --> 00:19:41,160 anti queer, and a major threat to public safety. What 274 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,279 we need to do is defund the NYPD. That's who 275 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:50,559 is now in charge. Bill Malugin from Fox News, citing 276 00:19:50,599 --> 00:19:54,799 some of the things that Ma'm Danny has previously called for. 277 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,640 Besides abolishing NYPD, he also would very much like to 278 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:08,680 abu prisons, abolish medical bills, abolish private health insurance, ban 279 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:17,640 all guns, legalized prostitution, create safe injection sites so you'll 280 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,319 be able to go to a safe zone to shoot up. 281 00:20:22,079 --> 00:20:26,880 The end of cash bail, decriminalization of all drug possession, 282 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:33,559 the ending of or abolishing of sentencing enhancements, which is, 283 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,039 you know, when you're a repeat, repeat offender, that kind 284 00:20:36,079 --> 00:20:38,839 of thing like that becomes then an enhancement to your sentence, 285 00:20:38,839 --> 00:20:40,839 whereas if you were a first time offender, it only 286 00:20:40,839 --> 00:20:43,680 would have been this one sentence, like oh, you would 287 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,680 get you know, a year, but you know, you've committed 288 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,440 seventy thousand crimes, and so now they're going to give 289 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,640 you a year and a half. That's an enhancement, right. 290 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,240 And he also of course wants to end all cooperation 291 00:20:57,799 --> 00:21:01,920 with ICE because you, as we are well aware, is 292 00:21:02,039 --> 00:21:07,960 never a target for terrorists who come into the country illegally. Right. 293 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,960 He also wants to raise the minimum wage to thirty 294 00:21:16,039 --> 00:21:18,599 dollars an hour. He wants to pay for all of 295 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:23,960 this stuff by increasing the taxes on corporations as well 296 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:33,599 as the really rich like his parents. Probably this is yeah, 297 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,319 this is a logan. Dobson used to work for Senator 298 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:42,319 Corey Gardner, Republican, the last Republican senator out of Colorado. 299 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,640 He says, a core tenet of socialism is to have 300 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,200 lots of rules so that the socialists can decide who 301 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,759 gets punished for breaking them and who does not. He's 302 00:21:53,799 --> 00:22:00,480 exactly right. Billy Binyon. He is a reporter at a 303 00:22:00,559 --> 00:22:04,279 libertarian magazine. He says, a lot of people say Andrew 304 00:22:04,319 --> 00:22:07,599 Cuomo's career should have ended with his sexual harassment scandal, 305 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,720 and that was bad, but it should have ended before that, 306 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,319 when he altered data and lied to taxpayers after his 307 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,279 policies helped kill a bunch of old people. It's kind 308 00:22:17,279 --> 00:22:24,400 of wild that isn't seen as the final straw. The 309 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,839 problem for guys now like Cuomo, these party establishment folks, 310 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,839 is that they have raised up a generation of leftist 311 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:39,519 activists that proved very useful when they were trying to 312 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:45,480 exert pressure on their enemy, Donald Trump, and to a 313 00:22:45,519 --> 00:22:49,000 lesser extent, all Republicans, the whole basket of deplorables and such. 314 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:56,480 But when you are seen as insufficiently fighting for your side, 315 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:02,039 and you are then rigging your colonel party processes in 316 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:07,720 order to maintain your grip and your fellow establishment candidates 317 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:12,680 grip on the party apparatus, those shock troops that you 318 00:23:12,799 --> 00:23:18,680 deployed against, you know, cops and ice agents and Republicans 319 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,200 in general, they will now take the power from you. 320 00:23:22,319 --> 00:23:24,519 I am reminded the first time I saw this happen, 321 00:23:24,559 --> 00:23:26,440 and it wasn't violent or anything like that. But the 322 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,440 first time I saw this happen was up in Ashville. 323 00:23:29,839 --> 00:23:32,480 I know, it's that's a total shock, right, But we 324 00:23:32,519 --> 00:23:35,279 saw it happen in Ashville, and it was this little race. 325 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,920 It was for the register of deeds, a race that 326 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:44,400 nobody ever really cares about, you know, like nobody knows 327 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,160 who the register of deeds is. They don't know what 328 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,720 they do whatever. There was a guy who was the 329 00:23:50,759 --> 00:23:53,240 register of deed for a very very very long time. 330 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,000 I'm trying to remember his name. Now I think it 331 00:23:55,039 --> 00:24:00,640 was like auto something, but big time powerbroker DEMOC party 332 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,920 had been you know, his part, his family. I think 333 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,799 they had been, you know, involved in Democrat Party politics 334 00:24:05,799 --> 00:24:10,400 and governance and such for decades, like a generational establishment 335 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,160 Democrat kind of a guy, but more probably of like 336 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:19,759 a blue dog Democrat. And he retires and he recommends 337 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,960 as his replacement his number two, this woman who had 338 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:28,160 been in the register of Deed's office for almost as long, 339 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,640 so she knew what she was doing, right, and he 340 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,079 said she's qualified to, you know, to take this over. 341 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,920 She should be the pick. Well, the Democrats have an 342 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:45,079 internal vote on the whole thing and she loses. She 343 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,319 then challenges the guy that she lost to and loses 344 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,960 again in the race. The guy she lost to Drew Reisinger, 345 00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:58,400 who was one of these leftist activist uh you know, 346 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:03,480 silver spoon kids, the New Guard, if you will. And 347 00:25:03,559 --> 00:25:05,400 I pointed this out at the time. It's the very 348 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,880 same thing that we're seeing here, which is that Democrats 349 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:18,240 built their machinery to oppose the Republicans. Right. The problem 350 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:23,799 is that that machinery for them, once they lose control 351 00:25:23,839 --> 00:25:30,000 of it from the inside, then you're done, You're done. 352 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,559 They because they thought the machine would protect them from Republicans. 353 00:25:34,079 --> 00:25:37,160 But the Republicans, like the Republican voters, they all left 354 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,079 Asheville right. They moved outside of the county. They fled 355 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,759 to the surrounding counties, much like we see here in Charlotte. 356 00:25:42,799 --> 00:25:45,920 A lot of Republicans moved to Union in Gaston County, 357 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:50,200 Iredale County, Caparis County because they don't want to live 358 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:56,359 under the Democrat state. And what you are then left 359 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,680 with is this internal battle. We see it on the 360 00:25:58,759 --> 00:26:03,240 Charlotte City Council on Monday night. We'll get into that tomorrow. 361 00:26:03,799 --> 00:26:05,680 We've got some audio that I need to pull from 362 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,720 the occurred at the very end of the meeting, so 363 00:26:07,759 --> 00:26:09,279 I haven't had time to pull it all off. But 364 00:26:09,319 --> 00:26:13,960 it's this. It's another example of this dynamic, is that 365 00:26:14,039 --> 00:26:16,440 you build this machinery. I would submit it's sort of 366 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:22,079 an anti democratic machinery. It's a political machine. And when 367 00:26:22,079 --> 00:26:26,319 you lose control of the internal apparatus, then you're done. 368 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,480 You don't get to stay in power because you're not 369 00:26:28,559 --> 00:26:31,880 leftist enough, you're not young enough, you're not fill in 370 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,960 the blank enough, whatever it may be. Whatever the activist 371 00:26:35,039 --> 00:26:40,519 wing is elevating as its primary criteria. Right, are you 372 00:26:41,079 --> 00:26:45,480 non binary? Are you a bipock? Right? Are are you 373 00:26:45,599 --> 00:26:48,720 some sort of appressed class? And God help you if 374 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,799 you stray off on any one of the litmus test 375 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:57,839 issues for the leftist wing. And that's difficult for logical 376 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:02,759 or rational blue dog conservative Democrats because the left keeps 377 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:08,200 changing what the litmus test criteria are because the issue 378 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,519 is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution. 379 00:27:11,319 --> 00:27:13,400 And so if you're not down with the revolution, if 380 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:19,480 you still harbor some affinity for America, for the free markets, 381 00:27:20,079 --> 00:27:26,319 for patriotism, for the military, for whatever, and the leftists say, no, no, no, 382 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:31,799 that's an institutional racist entity. You can't like that anymore. 383 00:27:31,839 --> 00:27:33,680 And you made comments about it in the past where 384 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,920 you were supportive of it, So that means you're out. 385 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,480 What does Governor Kathy Hulkeel do now? Up in New York? 386 00:27:39,519 --> 00:27:42,200 Does she endorse mem Danny as the Democrat nominee? What 387 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,000 does Chuck Schumer do this? According to Democrats sources talking 388 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,519 to The New York Post in twenty twenty one, Hochel 389 00:27:48,559 --> 00:27:52,079 stayed neutral in the mayor's race in Buffalo when the 390 00:27:52,079 --> 00:27:56,119 incumbent Byron Brown lost to the Democrats socialist India Walton 391 00:27:56,279 --> 00:27:59,160 in that in the party's primary. Brown then one re 392 00:27:59,279 --> 00:28:02,960 election though in a general election Landslide as a write 393 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,160 in candidate.

Visit creativideo dot com.

It's it's somebody in North Carolina. It's somebody 416 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,599 who's a Democrat. I'm narrowing it down. See if you 417 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:36,359 can guess she's Breezy. There's a big, big hint right there. 418 00:29:38,079 --> 00:29:41,400 I mean if you're on Twitter, because she goes by 419 00:29:42,279 --> 00:29:49,200 a Breezy Clayton and is Anderson Clayton, y'all, and she 420 00:29:49,359 --> 00:29:52,920 cusses that's how she wins back the rural vote. Yes, yes, 421 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,240 she is the chair of the North Carolina Democrat Party. 422 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:01,359 And she tweeted out I DK which I don't know. 423 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,039 I don't know about y'all. See there it is, there's 424 00:30:05,039 --> 00:30:08,880 another rural vote. Every time Breezy Clayton says y'all, an 425 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:13,519 angel gets his wings. I don't know about y'all, but 426 00:30:13,599 --> 00:30:16,640 I regained a lot of hope last night. And see 427 00:30:16,759 --> 00:30:26,200 municipal elections here we come. So Democrats heads up. Your 428 00:30:26,359 --> 00:30:31,319 chair of your party would very much like to see 429 00:30:31,839 --> 00:30:38,599 socialists knock off establishment moderate if you can call them that, 430 00:30:41,119 --> 00:30:47,119 more palatable democrats. She wants to take your party further 431 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:51,119 to the left. She wants the socialists to win. She's 432 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,319 very excited about it. That's who you guys have as 433 00:30:54,319 --> 00:30:58,799 your chair. You might want to do something about that, unless, 434 00:30:58,799 --> 00:31:00,920 of course, you think that you can all of these 435 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:09,119 cities into socialist hellholes. I mean, sorry, Utopias. Sorry, Utopia's 436 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,119 still ma'm danny's leftist vision. Again. This is the New 437 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:16,480 York Post article ma'm danny's leftist vision on public safety 438 00:31:16,799 --> 00:31:20,119 and strident opposition to Israel may not play as well 439 00:31:20,119 --> 00:31:22,839 in the general election as in the primary. Keep in mind, 440 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,920 by the way, New York City has the largest Jewish 441 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:31,759 population of any city on the planet outside of Israel. 442 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,039 There are more Jews living in New York City than 443 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:42,039 anywhere else besides Israel, which kind of blows up that hole. 444 00:31:42,119 --> 00:31:45,119 The Jews control everything, narrative, I think, right, if you 445 00:31:45,279 --> 00:31:49,480 just got some anti Semite that's now the mayor of 446 00:31:49,519 --> 00:31:51,480 the city, I don't know I got a message here. 447 00:31:51,519 --> 00:31:56,519 I'm not sure if he has a Kathia, but I 448 00:31:56,519 --> 00:32:00,759 would if I had to guess, I would say definitely. Oh, yes, Sean. 449 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,799 He wants the government to take over the grocery stores, 450 00:32:07,359 --> 00:32:10,079 so all of the whole foods will now become some foods. 451 00:32:11,559 --> 00:32:15,519 I think that's where that heads. But don't count out 452 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:22,160 Eric Adams though I'm serious. He's still in the race. 453 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,519 He wasn't because he left the Democrat Party. He's running 454 00:32:25,519 --> 00:32:28,400 as an independent. We'll see how that works out for him. 455 00:32:28,519 --> 00:32:32,960 There's also a Republican in the race, that's Curtis Sliwa, 456 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,440 who could either one of them could benefit from them. 457 00:32:36,519 --> 00:32:39,680 Danny's primary victory over Cuomo. Now Cuomo could also run 458 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:43,279 there's another ballot that he or or a party's ballot 459 00:32:43,279 --> 00:32:45,640 that he could jump onto run as another member of 460 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,000 another party or something. North Carolina you can't do that. 461 00:32:48,079 --> 00:32:50,599 If you lose in a primary, you cannot run then 462 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,440 in the general under another party name. So New York 463 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,480 does not have that restriction. So Cuomo could then make 464 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,000 another run for it. I think that would be very, 465 00:33:00,039 --> 00:33:07,079 very stupid. Cuomo's people, his voters, his donors, they need 466 00:33:07,119 --> 00:33:11,000 to put their money and their votes behind somebody other 467 00:33:11,119 --> 00:33:19,079 than Mendemi. Other than Cuomo. Because Adams is saddled by 468 00:33:19,079 --> 00:33:22,799 his own corruption scandals. Despite federal charges being dropped, he 469 00:33:22,839 --> 00:33:25,839 can run as the more moderate, law and order and 470 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,920 fiscally responsible candidate. He can cite a drop in crime 471 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,799 and an improved post COVID nineteen pandemic economy. Curtis Sliwick 472 00:33:34,839 --> 00:33:37,279 can make the same argument. He was actually the founder 473 00:33:37,319 --> 00:33:42,640 of the Guardian Angels. There's also another guy named Jim Walden. 474 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,160 I don't believe he owns any woods, but he's also running. 475 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:51,599 He's an independent. Yeah, Cuomo could also run on an 476 00:33:51,599 --> 00:33:55,759 independent Fight and Deliver ballot line, but many supporters may 477 00:33:55,799 --> 00:33:59,279 now switch to Mandemy as he's the Democrat nominee. So 478 00:33:59,319 --> 00:34:01,119 it's all still a in the air for as far 479 00:34:01,119 --> 00:34:04,640 as predictions go, although if you look at the betting markets, 480 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:09,320 Mendemmi is the odds on favorite to win in November, 481 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,800 and then New York City will get exactly what it deserves. 482 00:34:15,679 --> 00:34:17,960 All right, that'll do it for this episode.
