WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:01.520 It's nice eyes. 2 00:00:02.839 --> 00:00:05.960 Une Boston's News Radio. 3 00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:09.359 All right, Dan Watkins, thank you very much. We have 4 00:00:09.480 --> 00:00:11.759 an election year going on, and those we talked a 5 00:00:11.800 --> 00:00:15.800 lot about the presidential elections. First the election, first between 6 00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:19.960 Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Now between Donald Trump and 7 00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:22.079 the and the vice president. Now, who is the head 8 00:00:22.079 --> 00:00:29.239 of the Democratic ticket, Kamala Harris. Now there's a Senate 9 00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:35.359 race in Massachusetts. Our senior senator is standing for election 10 00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:39.479 for re election, Elizabeth Warren, And there are three Republicans 11 00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:43.399 who have qualified for the ballot. We've already had John 12 00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:47.359 Deaton and Ian Kin on as guests, and joining us 13 00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:51.439 now is the third Republican, Bob anton Ellis, who is 14 00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:56.439 running for the right to oppose as the Republican nominee 15 00:00:56.520 --> 00:00:59.759 Senator Elizabeth Warren. Has to get through a primary and 16 00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:03.759 so September. Bob Antonellis, welcome to Night's side. Give us 17 00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:06.359 a little bit of background. And my understanding is that 18 00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:09.640 you have never stood for public office before, or never 19 00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:12.879 held public office. Is this the first race you're running. 20 00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:16.040 Yes, it is, Dan, thank you for having me. 21 00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:16.680 You're welcome. 22 00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:22.319 Yes, it's the first time I've ever run for political office. 23 00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:24.439 I'm a I'm a regular person. 24 00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:28.359 That's good tonight. It's good. That's good. That's a good 25 00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:30.920 enough reason for some people to vote for you because 26 00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:34.000 the politicians, Well, tell us what have you done as 27 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:36.760 a regular person? Again, I don't want to be agist here, 28 00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:39.439 but like me, you're on the wrong side of fifty. 29 00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:42.319 So you're not some you know, thirty year audims taking 30 00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:44.599 a shot at the US Senate. Don't have to disclose 31 00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.040 your age, but I think we can agree that we're 32 00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:48.560 both on the wrong side of fifty. 33 00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:52.799 Well, I can tell you my age if it's not 34 00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:53.439 a problem. 35 00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:54.400 Not a problem for me. 36 00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:59.879 I'm sixty two years old and I just had my birthday, 37 00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:02.439 which is I was born in sixty two, So it's 38 00:02:02.519 --> 00:02:03.959 kind of a weird coincident. Sixty two. 39 00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:08.120 It's only going to happen one year, so you're. 40 00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:12.360 Having exactly he's the why I can't. So anyway, the 41 00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:14.360 short of it is, I moved to the state in 42 00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:16.919 sixty My family moved to the state in sixty five 43 00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:21.599 from Virginia. I've lived in the South Shore, I've lived 44 00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:24.680 in the Cape, I've lived in Middlesex County, Amherst. I 45 00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:28.120 got my education in UMass Amherst graduated in the class 46 00:02:28.120 --> 00:02:33.719 of eighty four Industrial Engineering and Operations Research. So and 47 00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:39.319 I've always said the Senate and even Washington needs one more, 48 00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:44.039 you know, definitely needs more engineers and it needs less lawyers. 49 00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:49.680 So I've had experience, you know, in the state software industry, 50 00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:55.000 contracting full time, dabbled in startups. So I'm a self starter. 51 00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:59.520 I get things done. I even had a technology I 52 00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:04.280 once called pizza pilot, So I'm very much aware that 53 00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:07.000 people don't like waiting for their pizza, that's for sure. 54 00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.400 Uh And I my technology was this was two thousand 55 00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:13.840 and seven, so it's quite a long time ago, meaning 56 00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:17.319 like it was, it was pretty avant guarde so GPS 57 00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:22.319 based pizza livery technology which I used to slash delivery 58 00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:28.039 times for a Dominoes in the north shore of Massachusetts. 59 00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:30.759 And then as far as did you have. 60 00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.599 It makes some big money off it sounds like. 61 00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:39.319 I did. I did, And that's a whole other story. 62 00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:41.319 So it's a lot it's a lot harder to get 63 00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:44.680 a patent issue, you know, to get through because it's 64 00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:47.960 not it's not a cheap process. But so that's that'll 65 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:49.240 be a story for another day. 66 00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:54.080 So let's get back. Let's get back to the campaign here. 67 00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:56.319 When did you decide you wanted to run? Is this 68 00:03:56.439 --> 00:03:59.159 something that has been a burning issue for a while, 69 00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:02.319 or what's what prompted you to finally say, you know, 70 00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:03.599 dag mammit, this. 71 00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:09.560 Is the year I think it was. There was a 72 00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:13.199 discussion on the radio about Elizabeth Warren, and I honestly 73 00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:18.240 don't recall exactly what the conversation was, but I felt, Okay, 74 00:04:18.279 --> 00:04:22.720 she's very exposed, she's you know, I sometimes call her 75 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:25.639 Queen Elizabeth Warren, and I think she needs to abdicate 76 00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:31.360 the throne that she's been occupying, because honestly, I can't 77 00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:35.879 think of one thing she's actually done. Maybe you do, 78 00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:39.040 Maybe you can, maybe a caller can suggest one thing 79 00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:42.040 that she's done that's actually good for the state of Massachusetts. 80 00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:43.800 He's got me stuffed on that one, Bob, I gotta 81 00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:48.560 tell you. I mean, you know, so you're not concerned 82 00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:52.360 about running for someone who is such a deep and 83 00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:55.519 abiding Native American heritage, right. 84 00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:03.279 Exactly so. But I just felt good about you know, 85 00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:06.519 I did some you know, market research. You can say, 86 00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:10.040 talk to a lot of people different artcs, which is 87 00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:14.879 Republican town committees, and I basically found that there was 88 00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:22.800 a hunger for a genuine Trump supporting conservative Republican. You 89 00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:26.000 know that, you know that you can go through the checklist, 90 00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:28.759 Not that I would want to go through a checklist, 91 00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:32.720 but when you hear my positions. My three big categories 92 00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:36.920 of topics that I promote are America First, which you've 93 00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:41.519 heard of that, yep, Massachusetts first, which is an interesting 94 00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:44.959 way to say, but you know what, America first is 95 00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:47.399 really great. You know, we we love America first. But 96 00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:51.759 there's a difference between fixing America's problems and fixing the 97 00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:56.399 problems in Massachusetts. So that's what Massachusetts Massachusetts First is about. 98 00:05:56.399 --> 00:06:00.639 We'll talk about that. And then the thirdly is womanhood first. 99 00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:04.160 And that's because see, these are every issue that I'm 100 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:07.160 going to talk about. You'll if you run a check 101 00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:11.199 in your mind about where are the other two candidates 102 00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:13.680 stand on these issues, and I can almost guarantee you 103 00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:19.240 that there's almost zero overlap, especially with the topic of 104 00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:22.120 womanhood first. And that's the one that's kind of near 105 00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:24.720 and dear to my heart because well we saw it 106 00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:30.399 on the opening what do you call it of the Olympics. 107 00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:36.759 There's a societal problem that we're having in this Western civilization. 108 00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:40.759 And I really think that a womanhood has been under 109 00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:44.199 grave assaults from a variety of sources. 110 00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:46.000 And Okay, when we get back, I'm going to have 111 00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.639 you expand on that and espouse that a little bit. 112 00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:50.720 My guest is a Bob anton Ellis. He is a 113 00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:55.199 Republican in a three way primary which will be held 114 00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:58.600 in early September. He's running against a gentleman named John 115 00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:01.279 Deaton and Ian kin With We've had both mister and 116 00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:04.839 mister Caana on and tonight we have mister anton Ellis. 117 00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:06.240 If you want to ask him a question, give him 118 00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:08.680 a call, you more than welcome. I haven't even given 119 00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.240 the numbers yet, and we have some lines already full, 120 00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:13.120 which is always a good sign. The only line that 121 00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:17.519 remains open is the only one line is six one, seven, nine, 122 00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:21.079 three to one ten thirty. There's one line there, and 123 00:07:21.560 --> 00:07:23.920 we'll get to callers. But I also want to give 124 00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:28.160 Bob and an opportunity, Bob Antonellis an opportunity to define 125 00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:31.319 himself and also probably talk about the other Republicans of 126 00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:33.480 the race. And he's more than welcome to do that. 127 00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:36.160 Why he would be a better choice than either of 128 00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:38.160 the other two to run against Elizabeth Warre. And we'll 129 00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:40.040 get to all of that, I promise, right after this 130 00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:43.199 break on night side six one seven, two, five, four, 131 00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:45.639 ten thirty. Those lines are full. The one line that 132 00:07:45.800 --> 00:07:48.199 is open is six one seven, nine three one ten thirty. 133 00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:52.920 Back with Bob Antonellis talking politics, Massachusetts Senate politics right 134 00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:53.519 after this. 135 00:07:55.839 --> 00:07:59.079 Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World Light, 136 00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:02.480 thanks to you on WBZ News Radio. 137 00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:06.560 Joining me is Bobby Antonellis. He's running for the Massachusetts 138 00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:11.240 state Massachusetts US Senate see currently being held by Elizabeth Warren. 139 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:13.480 In order to be able to challenge her, he is 140 00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:15.879 going to have to get more votes than two other 141 00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:20.079 Republican candidates in the September primary. So do you want 142 00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:23.240 to draw some distinctions with your opponents? Bob, going ahead 143 00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:24.759 if you'd like to. If not, we can move on 144 00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:28.920 to some of your important issues. Well. 145 00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:35.080 Yeah, I'm a conservative Republican as you know, and I'm 146 00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:41.000 strong on the Second Amendment. Both of my opponents have 147 00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:44.960 said that they're happy with the gun laws in Massachusetts, 148 00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:50.399 which if you have anybody listening that's a hunter, anybody 149 00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:53.279 that's been following what's been going on in the State 150 00:08:53.279 --> 00:08:58.039 House of Massachusetts with gun rights. Anybody that's you know, 151 00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:01.200 that frequents a gun shop to buy ammo or goes 152 00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.279 to the shooting range, then you probably, you know, they 153 00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:07.360 would probably respond, you know, with you know a little 154 00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:10.840 bit of a chuckle, you know, hearing that Massachusetts laws 155 00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:12.080 for guns are okay. 156 00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:14.480 But then then again, then again, Bob, you know, you 157 00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:17.639 just had a presidential candidate, the candidate that you support, 158 00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:20.440 almost killed by a twenty year old kid out in 159 00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:23.799 Pennsylvania was able to buy fifty rounds that day, apparently 160 00:09:23.879 --> 00:09:28.559 using maybe using a false name. That's pretty scary. So 161 00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:31.720 you know, I'm sure that that issue cuts both rights. 162 00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:36.000 Well, yeah, you're right, But you know what, it's everybody 163 00:09:36.039 --> 00:09:38.759 really knows when they think about it. Guns don't kill people. 164 00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:42.080 And it wasn't the gun that pulled the trigger. It 165 00:09:42.120 --> 00:09:45.320 was something much deeper. And people, you know, refer to 166 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:48.480 Trump de rangement syndrome, you know, as part of the 167 00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:50.759 you know, the so what I'm. 168 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:53.080 Saying, Still, this kid, this twenty year old, had access 169 00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:59.919 to a pretty sophisticated weapon. And yeah, again, that's that's interesting. 170 00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.360 Give us some other areas where you and your Republican 171 00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:06.000 competitors disagree, how do you distinguish yourself? 172 00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:15.639 Well, universal healthcare completely against that. In fact, since Obamacare 173 00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:20.840 prices of skyrocketed as supply his shrunks. When it was 174 00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.399 one sixth of the economy. I don't know what it 175 00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:24.960 is today, but healthcare was one sixth of the economy. 176 00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:29.240 And when you basically socialize anything and you create all 177 00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:33.399 kinds of new hoops and regulations and restrictions, particularly on doctors, 178 00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:40.360 the amount of care that they can offer up shrinks, 179 00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:44.919 and as that happens, prices go up. So I'm dead, 180 00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:48.840 I'm looking. I'm hoping to see Obamacare go away. 181 00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:52.639 In fact, again, it's tough on those programs. I will 182 00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:55.399 say this that it's very tough if you lose your 183 00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:57.879 doctor in Massachusetts to find a doctor these. 184 00:10:57.799 --> 00:11:02.279 Days, it sure is. Yeah, yeah, And that this is. 185 00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:04.840 An another pattern. Give me one or two other issues 186 00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:08.960 that you disagree with, your your your compatriots, your Republican. 187 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:14.399 Two good ones. A green New Deal is something I'm 188 00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:21.240 dead set against, particularly involving wind farms. I've been saying 189 00:11:21.279 --> 00:11:25.279 for you know, well before this, uh, this disaster, this 190 00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:29.919 disaster that occurred just weeks ago that has destroyed the 191 00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:35.440 coastline of Nantucket. I've been saying it's a horrible thing. 192 00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:38.000 And I was against wind farming for other reasons, and 193 00:11:38.039 --> 00:11:40.440 I honestly never even occurred to me. I never even 194 00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:43.679 thought like these these blades are you know, they're over 195 00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:45.639 one hundred They're over one hundred yards long in some 196 00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:50.200 cases can weigh over twenty tons. And the stuff that's 197 00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:54.039 in there, the oils, the foam, the garbage, and then 198 00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:58.720 the fiberglass, it is potentially an ecological disaster, just one, 199 00:11:59.559 --> 00:12:03.000 just one, and it could go for forever and ever another. 200 00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:06.399 So the wind farms, my my plan would be to 201 00:12:06.960 --> 00:12:10.480 ban all. And Donald Trump has joined this, uh you know, 202 00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:13.080 I started saying in February, and now he I'm happy 203 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:16.919 to hear he also on day one would ban all 204 00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:21.240 wind farms off of all US territorial waters. That's quite 205 00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:23.039 good to me. Now. The last thing I think I 206 00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:27.879 would I'm gonna say I'm really against is bitcoin. And 207 00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:34.960 you'd be surprised the end, you're I know, I know, 208 00:12:35.080 --> 00:12:36.960 I know. So I mean, I'm like, I like, you know, 209 00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:40.080 I love Donald Trump, but but I'm not some kind 210 00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:43.639 of like robot and so I have completely different opinions. 211 00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:47.279 I'm one hundred against bitcoin, and it has to do 212 00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:53.519 with the pure uh waste squandering of our electric grid. 213 00:12:53.840 --> 00:12:53.960 Uh. 214 00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:56.200 And I'll get through out a statistic. You know, we 215 00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:57.799 can talk about it if you if you have questions. 216 00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:02.159 But the amount of electric be used by one single 217 00:13:02.519 --> 00:13:06.919 Bitcoin transaction can equal as much as the electricity used 218 00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:11.679 by five hundred thousand VISA transactions. It's obscene. It's an 219 00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:13.919 engineering failure. And I have an article I put into 220 00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:19.440 the Broadside where I basically was calling out Lincoln Labs 221 00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:25.919 mit Miter Corporation to say this is a flawed engineering 222 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:29.600 concept and please speak out against it. All right, that's 223 00:13:29.639 --> 00:13:31.480 up because of the electric waste. 224 00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:33.840 We got a whole bunch of callers. So let me 225 00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:36.440 start with some callers for you here because they think 226 00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:40.840 it's important to listen and take questions. Again, ask everybody 227 00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:43.000 if you're a supporter of fine, if you're somebody who 228 00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:47.639 supported of another candidate, please be be professional and be 229 00:13:47.720 --> 00:13:50.480 polite to my guests. Let me start it off with 230 00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:55.320 Chris in Marion, Massachusetts. Chris, your first this hour with 231 00:13:55.519 --> 00:14:00.559 Republican Senate candidate in the primary, Bob antonellis. 232 00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:05.240 Hi, Bob, so, I understand that the Grenelka statue in 233 00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:09.080 Boston is pretty controversial to you, but you know, the 234 00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:11.200 fact of the matter is that almost ninety percent of 235 00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:14.559 Massachusetts residents support the Black Lives Matter movement, which the 236 00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:17.559 statue is connected to. So could you please explain two 237 00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:20.080 things to me, First, what you want to do about 238 00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:22.000 that statue. And second, and this is the one that 239 00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:24.240 I really want to hear, how you intend to develop 240 00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:27.279 cross party support, which you need to be warren when 241 00:14:27.279 --> 00:14:30.039 this issue that you have been so vocal about about 242 00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:32.720 is something most mass residents don't agree with. 243 00:14:32.879 --> 00:14:37.639 Okay, before he answers, my understanding, Bob is that this 244 00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:40.480 issue is one of your campaign issues that you'd like 245 00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:44.919 to get that statue removed from the common Someone mentioned 246 00:14:44.919 --> 00:14:46.519 that to me earlier. I just want to make sure 247 00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:49.720 that I understood it correctly and also obviously hear what 248 00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:50.559 your position is. 249 00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:55.799 Yeah, exactly, And I think there are plenty of people 250 00:14:55.799 --> 00:14:59.440 and plenty of Black Americans, black residents of Massachusetts that 251 00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:02.080 look at that statue and they think it's actually a 252 00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:05.960 disgrace to the memory of Martin Luther King Jr. Because 253 00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:08.360 there is you know, people look at it and say, 254 00:15:08.440 --> 00:15:11.000 this is like a pornographic, this is this is insulting. 255 00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:13.919 It's not even there's no faith, there's no feet, there's 256 00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:18.159 no body that just limbs. So I'm absolutely for uh, 257 00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:22.320 you know, Black America having a voice. But when it's 258 00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:24.759 kind of interesting how you brought up Black Lives Matter. 259 00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:28.759 I've done a lot of research into BLM and I 260 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:32.360 have proven and I have you know, others conversations we 261 00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:35.480 can have on this that it was the rebirth of 262 00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:41.639 the Black Liberation Army actually BLM. So it's very militant, 263 00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:46.240 and it's actually hurts Black Americans, particularly when BLM goes 264 00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:48.960 out and says we want to get rid of the police, Like, 265 00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:52.200 how does that help Black Americans? They suffered, they suffer 266 00:15:52.279 --> 00:15:55.840 more gun deaths in the inner cities, they suffer more crime, 267 00:15:56.120 --> 00:15:57.679 and is a lot of his black on black and 268 00:15:57.720 --> 00:16:00.240 they're saying, give us our police, but Black Lives Matter 269 00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:04.159 keeps it away. So Black Lives Matter. I'm sorry, I 270 00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:08.720 appreciate the call, Chris, but they are doing a lot 271 00:16:08.759 --> 00:16:10.519 more harm. And then you know, then they start then 272 00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:14.559 as you know, there's Black Lives Matter related violence and 273 00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:17.039 burning of police stations, and uh. 274 00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:20.559 Also a lot of a lot of black businesses also 275 00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:23.480 suffered damage during some of the riots. 276 00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:25.120 And that's right sure that. 277 00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:30.799 We have seen in Massachusetts some of the founders of 278 00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:34.600 the Black Lives Matter movement in Massachusetts are finding themselves 279 00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:37.639 in buriled in federal court. Chris, your follow up question, 280 00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:39.039 if you if you need if. 281 00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:44.240 You need to, uh, yeah, I'll just reiterate. I mean, 282 00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:46.600 it's true, I think you're right about b l M. 283 00:16:46.720 --> 00:16:49.759 But let's be honest, most mass residents support b l M. 284 00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:55.919 I think that, Yeah, Chris, I think when you break 285 00:16:55.960 --> 00:17:00.200 that down that uh you you may have residents who say, hey, 286 00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:03.080 you know, you know black Lives matter, the concept of 287 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:05.640 Black Lives matter, but a lot of the violence. I 288 00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:09.680 think that the popularity of Black Lives Matter as a 289 00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:12.720 movement has waned in the last few years, not only 290 00:17:13.720 --> 00:17:16.000 across the statement, within the black community. I think I 291 00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:18.759 think Bob is actually right on that because again, the 292 00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:24.359 violence that occurred didn't occur in places like Marion. It 293 00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:27.960 incurred in in the black community. But Chris, I appreciate 294 00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:30.920 your call. Thank you very much. We'll talk again. I hope, 295 00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:34.920 thank you all right. Let me move you can move 296 00:17:35.000 --> 00:17:36.960 Chris Off here. There we go up. Let me try 297 00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:41.000 to get one more in here before the break. You 298 00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:42.880 know what, I'm not going to short change anybody.

My guest 301 00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:50.960 is Bobby Antonellis.

Going to go next 313 00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:34.960 to Pete in Framingham, Massachusetts. Pete, you were next on Nightside. 314 00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:36.160 Welcome gright ahead, Pete. 315 00:18:37.079 --> 00:18:40.359 Hey, Bob, So I've heard a theory that President Trump 316 00:18:40.440 --> 00:18:43.400 could come back into office this very month by following 317 00:18:43.440 --> 00:18:46.359 a key phrase that you have helped uncover in the Constitution. 318 00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:48.799 Could you just tell us more about how that would work? 319 00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:54.480 Absolutely, yes, Please don't get weird on me here because 320 00:18:54.519 --> 00:18:57.400 this sounds to me. I happen to be a lawyer. 321 00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:02.160 Just so Pete, you know, I studied the Constitution in 322 00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:07.400 law school. I've practiced the Constitution as a television reporter 323 00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:09.920 and as a talk show host and as a lawyer. 324 00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:13.319 So you could tell me what you want to tell me. 325 00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:17.599 But please, yeah, yeah, okay.

Got scared the daylights out of Nancy Pelosi. 328 00:19:25.319 --> 00:19:28.799 But because there was a seven point constitutional cure and 329 00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:33.920 whatever it was, the speaker can be anybody. So the 330 00:19:33.960 --> 00:19:37.000 governing body over the electoral college, if the electoral College 331 00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:41.480 is the executive brandch and that chooses the president and 332 00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:46.119 vice president as everybody else. But how the legislature has 333 00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:49.359 the same power in authorities to co equality as the 334 00:19:49.359 --> 00:19:52.680 electoral college to choose the president and the vice president. 335 00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:55.559 So when that happens, like when. 336 00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:58.400 The I think, to be really honest with you, Bob, 337 00:19:58.440 --> 00:20:00.920 with all due respect to you, you were way off 338 00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:03.200 in La La land on one.
