00:00:02.000They don't talk about the hospital Ship Mercy that was also sitting in New York Harbor vacant so that Andrew Cuomo could send your grandmother back into a nursing home infected or amongst other infected people that led to the deaths of thousands of people.
00:00:14.000That's the insanity of the left today.
00:00:18.000You know, honestly, that is probably the bigger scandal, although it seems like perhaps the Democrats are sweeping them under the rug in lieu now of The accusations against our groper in chief as governor of New York.
00:00:32.000It's sort of amazing because on today as International Women's Day, I was beginning to think that the left don't actually believe all women.
00:00:41.000I sort of feel like they were going to give a pass to Democrat congresspeople.
00:00:45.000The person you mentioned earlier, Andrea Stewart-Cousins, last week she actually said, well, If another accuser comes out, then he should resign.
00:00:55.000Now, bear in mind, three had already done it, so I guess if you're a Democrat governor, you get that kind of leeway.
00:01:02.000The left is really busy spending a lot of time trying to cancel characters, cartoons, like Pepe Le Pew, when they could be actually trying to cancel people who are actually behaving like Pepe Le Pew times 10, and that happens to be the governor of New York.
00:01:18.000This kind of stuff is disgusting, Sean.
00:01:28.000If this was a Republican in this situation, whether it was one scandal, both scandals, a fraction of those scandals, this thing would have been over a long time ago.
00:01:38.000But Andrew Cuomo gets to get away with it.
00:01:40.000If you look at the people Who have accused them?
00:01:42.000They're all tied to the Democrat Party mechanism in New York, it seems to me.
00:01:49.000How many more are there that are just afraid to come forward because it would be damaging to their career in Democrat politics?
00:01:56.000I understand that. There would be reprisals.
00:01:58.000You think that people in the quo machine won't go after those people?
00:02:02.000I can almost guarantee you that there are a lot more that are just either afraid to come out for those reprisals or don't want to do Damage to the Democrat Party in New York, which is about as corrupted and ridiculous as it gets, and we're seeing that with our very own eyes.
00:02:22.000He was literally 49 or 50 out of 50 states in terms of performance, and yet, because he was willing to talk poorly about my father, they gave him a throne and a specter, and they let him do his thing.
00:02:34.000It was a joke, and it was a sham, and I think we're starting to realize that now.
00:03:19.000I think that would be like the tortures of the damned.
00:03:22.000So, you know, the answer is no for me, but I'd love to see someone who's actually willing to fight, someone who would actually take that on.
00:03:29.000If you look at what's going on in the city, it's a disgrace.
00:03:42.000And what they did, destroying businesses.
00:03:45.000If COVID disappeared tomorrow, Sean, and you flipped on the switch, it would take Probably a decade for New York to get back to the way it was, and it's because of incompetence.
00:03:55.000Not because of anything else, and we know that because we've seen states like Texas and Florida be able to behave competently and not destroy their economies in the process.
00:04:06.000Alright, Don Jr., always good to have you.
