00:00:00.000 New York, folks, this guy, Mamdani, beats Andrew Yang.
00:00:04.720 Then, a bunch of videos are coming out.
00:00:07.140 Rob, can you go to the other one first, if you don't mind?
00:00:09.300 Andrew Yang?
00:00:11.060 Andrew Cuomo, not Andrew Yang, but him as well.
00:00:14.420 But Andrew Cuomo, he's being interviewed here and asked if he believes billionaires should exist.
00:00:21.960 I want you to listen to his answer, Rob.
00:00:24.480 If you can do it on Twitter so we can...
00:00:27.240 Where did you go to, Rob?
00:00:29.180 You went to a complete different place.
00:00:31.040 I have a different clip of him.
00:00:33.760 Just go to my Twitter account, Rob.
00:00:35.180 Just go to my Twitter account.
00:00:36.160 It's two videos that I have there.
00:00:37.260 That's what I'm saying.
00:00:37.680 If you just go there, you'll find it.
00:00:39.020 It was like last night, right?
00:00:40.120 Yeah, he's being interviewed and he's being asked about billionaires.
00:00:43.260 Should billionaires exist?
00:00:44.760 This is his response.
00:00:46.120 And I actually want to go to the comments section because I want to know how the audience reacts to it.
00:00:51.460 Some are critical.
00:00:52.220 Some are supportive.
00:00:52.940 Go for it, Rob.
00:00:53.520 You are a self-described democratic socialist.
00:00:56.440 Do you think that billionaires have a right to exist?
00:01:00.860 I don't think that we should have billionaires because, frankly, it is so much money in a moment of such inequality.
00:01:07.140 And ultimately, what we need more of is equality across our city and across our state and across our country.
00:01:13.380 And I look forward to work with everyone, including billionaires, to make a city that is fair for all of us.
00:01:18.820 Hey, billionaires, I look forward to working with you to take your billions away from you and give it to the working people, the poor.
00:01:25.080 And guess what?
00:01:25.760 I think you want to work with me.
00:01:26.820 By the way, here's a kicker.
00:01:28.140 You ready for this?
00:01:29.040 Do you know what city in America has the most billionaires the city he's about to be mayor in?
00:01:33.180 Type in, Rob, which city in America has the most billionaires?
00:01:37.120 123 billionaires live in New York City right now.
00:01:40.500 And he wants to say, I don't believe.
00:01:42.420 So you know what he's trying to say is, I don't believe billionaires should live in New York City.
00:01:46.640 That's the interpretation.
00:01:47.720 Look at that.
00:01:48.600 Forbes 2025 ranking, New York City, 123 billionaires.
00:01:52.680 How are these billionaires okay with this guy becoming a mayor of the city?
00:01:56.440 Go a little bit lower, Rob, if you could.
00:01:57.840 Watch this one here.
00:01:58.580 LA's got 53.
00:02:00.040 San Fran's got 50 to 82 because some of the guys left.
00:02:02.480 But look at that number right there, 123.
00:02:03.960 Then there's another video that he's been interviewed where he uses a very, very interesting phrase because the president doesn't call him a socialist.
00:02:13.220 The president calls him a communist.
00:02:14.880 And after you see this, you'll see why that is.
00:02:17.220 Rob, play that clip if you could.
00:02:18.940 And again, I want to go on the Twitter side because we can watch the comments as well afterwards, Rob.
00:02:23.100 Go for it.
00:02:23.500 Click on, go for it.
00:02:24.540 Listen to the phrase.
00:02:26.820 It's not simply to raise class consciousness, but to win socialism.
00:02:30.180 And obviously raising class consciousness is a critical part of that.
00:02:32.420 But making sure that we have candidates that both understand that and are willing to put that forward at every which moment that they have, at every which opportunity that they are given.
00:02:42.260 We have to continue to elect more socialists.
00:02:45.800 And we have to ensure that we are unapologetic about our socialists.
00:02:51.120 There are also other issues that we firmly believe in.
00:02:53.300 It's coming.
00:02:54.040 Whether it's BDS, right, or whether it's the end goal of seizing the means of production.
00:02:59.060 Okay, pause right there, Rob.
00:03:00.520 Go back a little bit more.
00:03:02.560 Go back a little bit more.
00:03:03.240 Okay, with the smile on his face.
00:03:04.480 The end goal.
00:03:05.200 Smile on his face.
00:03:05.720 Press it.
00:03:06.160 Do it again.
00:03:06.960 The end goal of seizing the means of production.
00:03:09.560 Okay, go back one more time, folks, because we're going to go and say what famous author used that phrase.
00:03:14.700 Don't say anything.
00:03:15.640 We want to go through it.
00:03:16.840 Say it one more time.
00:03:17.820 One more time, Rob.
00:03:18.720 Pay attention, folks.
00:03:19.740 Go ahead.
00:03:20.300 The goal of seizing the means of production.
00:03:22.300 What does he say?
00:03:23.080 What's the line?
00:03:23.540 Seize the means of production.
00:03:24.680 Seize the means of production.
00:03:27.360 Gosh, where did I read that?
00:03:30.080 By the way, first of all, he must have done this podcast on Christmas, because that's an ugly sweater he's wearing.
00:03:34.620 But if you go on ChatGBT, Rob, type in what author or which economist used the phrase end the means of production.
00:03:46.520 Okay, which economist used the phrase end the means of production.
00:03:50.600 Okay, end the means of production, seizing production, famously comes from who?
00:03:56.900 Karl Marx.
00:03:57.820 Karl Marx.
00:03:58.320 Oh, wow.
00:03:59.520 19th century German philosophy economist who famously says with the phrase the proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains.
00:04:05.700 They have a world to win.
00:04:07.580 Workers of the world unite.
00:04:09.560 The abolition of private property in the means of production.
00:04:15.440 Right?
00:04:16.140 In the means of production.
00:04:18.280 So now, he is a communist.
00:04:21.300 So this guy wants to go in that direction, and then President Trump responds to it, I believe, this morning.
00:04:27.120 Rob, if you have that clip when he responds to it, and then, Tom, I'm going to come to you first.
00:04:32.540 We're going to save our economist, Vinny, at the end, but we're going to come, Tom, I'm going to come to you first.
00:04:35.820 I'm going to go from the lowest.
00:04:36.780 Go ahead, Rob.
00:04:37.460 Play this clip.
00:04:38.340 I think he's terrible.
00:04:39.460 He's a communist.
00:04:40.760 The last thing we need is a communist.
00:04:43.360 I said there will never be socialism in the United States.
00:04:46.680 I said we have a communist.
00:04:47.640 So I think it's bad news.
00:04:50.060 And I think I'm going to have a lot of fun with him, watching him, because he has to come right to this building to get his money.
00:04:56.440 And don't worry, he's not going to run away with anything.
00:04:58.720 I think he's a—frankly, I've heard he's a total nut job.
00:05:02.660 I think the people in New York are crazy.
00:05:04.780 If they go this route, I think they're crazy.
00:05:06.660 We will have a communist in the—for the first time, really, a pure, true communist.
00:05:13.540 He wants to operate the grocery stores, the department stores.
00:05:18.040 What about the people that are there?
00:05:20.080 I think it's great.
00:05:21.760 So there's a couple things here.
00:05:24.020 First of all, we need to take a close look at NBC, because sometimes things are hiding in plain sight.
00:05:29.740 So Kristen Welker says, do you think billionaires should exist?
00:05:33.560 In an inspection of a candidate, is that the kind of question that you would expect?
00:05:41.180 So the first problem I have is with Kristen Welker. 0.53
00:05:44.980 And so she is just throwing him the softball that they gave.
00:05:48.940 The campaign—that is a campaign question.
00:05:51.160 So the campaign says, hey, we will go on your show.
00:05:54.280 We will give you the ratings.
00:05:55.820 You will be able to say, and we've got Zorhan.
00:05:58.080 I don't know if I agree with that.
00:05:59.280 No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:06:00.920 Pushback, Tom.
00:06:01.820 No, I'm going to push back hard, because the campaign gives questions to the media,
00:06:07.800 and then the media chooses whether to be an inspector or a reciter.
00:06:12.860 And the media is not inspecting him.
00:06:15.080 They're just saying, do you think billionaires should exist?
00:06:17.080 So you give them the question.
00:06:18.140 However, the second problem here is you have to look in plain sight as to who voted for him in the play.
00:06:23.960 He's not mayor yet.
00:06:25.320 We're about to see a very, very, very ugly campaign where all of these bad sweater videos
00:06:30.860 and everything he said that are about to come out as the more centrist left is going to be on display trying to defeat him.
00:06:39.440 But let's look at what happened.
00:06:41.060 You have a young generation of very recent college graduates that overwhelmingly voted for him across three axes.
00:06:49.500 Axis number one, how the hell am I going to pay off all the student loan debt?
00:06:54.100 Never mind that you've willingly went and got it for your degree.
00:06:59.360 Number two, wow, when am I going to be able to afford housing?
00:07:04.020 And number three, therefore, life in general is pretty damn overwhelming and expensive.
00:07:10.100 And those people found you listen to him.
00:07:13.100 He's a skillful communicator.
00:07:14.900 And how he answered that to Kristen Welker with a soft voice and an empathetic tone,
00:07:19.940 that's a gifted communicator.
00:07:21.480 So in plain sight, you need to see that we have a lot of people in this country
00:07:26.140 that just got out with student loan debt, looking at the price of housing,
00:07:29.900 looking at the cost of living, and they were ripe to be harvested by this kind of a message,
00:07:35.740 but they don't know what they're buying.
00:07:37.300 Right. Rob, can you go to the video where he answers, she's asked the question,
00:07:40.920 do you believe billionaires should exist?
00:07:42.140 Just go on the Twitter so we can see the comment section.
00:07:44.620 Just go to my profile right there.
00:07:45.760 Okay, if you go a little bit lower, a little bit lower, one more.
00:07:49.100 Okay, pose the question and look at his instant reaction.
00:07:52.220 This guy had no clue that question was going to be asked.
00:07:54.680 Watch his instant reaction.
00:07:56.140 He doesn't want that question.
00:07:57.420 My opinion, Tom. Go for it.
00:07:58.960 ...described democratic socialist.
00:08:01.420 Do you think that billionaires have a right to exist?
00:08:05.260 I don't think that we should have billionaires because frankly...
00:08:08.700 By the way, Tom, the reason why I don't think that's the case with that question is because that's exactly the question they don't want him to be asked.
00:08:18.160 And I think she actually asked the right questions.
00:08:21.520 Sometimes the best questions in an interview are the simplest questions.
00:08:24.640 You don't need to complicate a question.
00:08:26.180 You may be right that they've sent the campaign.
00:08:27.940 I don't think he's that big of a player, nor do I think CNBC wants a guy like this at the top.
00:08:34.160 They don't want a communist.
00:08:35.160 They don't want a guy like this to be in New York City while they're doing business out of there.
00:08:37.940 That's my opinion.
00:08:38.880 I may be wrong.
00:08:39.800 If this was CNBC and Joe Kernan, he would have torn his beard off.
00:08:42.360 It's still owned by the same company, NBC, right?
00:08:44.320 So the range of people that follow The Future Looks Bright, it's absolutely amazing.
00:08:48.920 Seeing people in airports wearing angry patriot gear, Future Looks Bright gear, all over the place.
00:08:54.600 Exciting times.
00:08:55.780 And it's 4th of July.
00:08:57.000 And we love America.
00:08:58.120 And we love freedom.
00:08:59.060 And if you do as well.
00:09:00.120 You love the brand, Vaya Tainman.

00:09:09.560 We do it through the businesses that we run.
00:09:11.400 And by the way, we are shameless capitalists.
00:09:13.960 We don't hide it.
00:09:14.640 We believe in capitalism.
00:09:16.060 We believe this is the way to make the money so you don't have to go and have to be loyal to somebody that's giving you money.
00:09:21.600 Our loyalty is to you.
00:09:22.740 We talk to you raw, open.
00:09:24.400 And if you like it, you don't like it, great.
00:09:25.880 You get to Manekles and say, Pat, I disagree with you.
00:09:28.180 I can't believe you said this.
00:09:29.180 And if you agree, great.
00:09:29.980 We talk about it as well.
00:09:30.920 So this weekend, 4th of July, we have a blowout sale up to 60%.
00:09:34.660 On top of that, we have the women's line that also came out.
00:09:38.940 Rob, if you go to the website, there's a women's line as well that we have out there.
00:09:42.340 If you go on the collection and you go to ladies' collection, ladies, you ask for it. 1.00
00:09:46.420 We now have some gear.
00:09:47.900 A big influence of this is Jennifer David who said, we need to get some ladies' gear. 1.00
