00:00:00.200 Mamdani, we haven't covered it yet. He comes to the White House to meet with the president.
00:00:03.860 He requests it to meet with the president. The president, of course, says yes, no problem.
00:00:07.820 He's from New York. The president made his wealth in New York. He came up in New York.
00:00:12.140 He has a lot of history in New York. And so Mamdani's like, yeah, I definitely have to come meet with this guy
00:00:18.300 to try to find things, to make things work out. And while they're having conversations,
00:00:22.800 there's a moment where one of the reporters asks a question about, look, you've called the president
00:00:28.100 a fascist, and he gets ready to explain himself. And this shows you how comfortable the president
00:00:34.000 is in his own skin. He's like, just say what you want to say. Don't argue with it. You're going to
00:00:39.520 have to do this your entire life. And watch what happens. This was a very, very special moment
00:00:43.620 that went viral on Twitter. Go ahead, Rob.
00:00:46.460 To Stephen Nelson, he asked about your comment calling the president a fascist. And your answer
00:00:53.240 was, both President Trump and I have been clear about our positions and our views.
00:00:56.980 Are you affirming that you think President Trump is a fascist?
00:01:00.800 I've spoken about...
00:01:02.020 That's okay. You can just say yes.
00:01:03.660 Okay.
00:01:04.580 It's easier. It's easier than explaining it. I don't mind.
00:01:08.640 And Mr. President, I wanted to ask you...
00:01:10.640 He slapped a little arm.
00:01:12.000 You see him?
00:01:13.120 He slapped a little arm.
00:01:13.880 He slapped a little arm.
00:01:14.480 You're okay.
00:01:15.580 Yeah.
00:01:15.940 But there was another moment where they talked about, behind closed doors, Rob, where they
00:01:20.420 had agreements where he asked a question on, you know, the president won the votes over
00:01:27.540 for people that were struggling with affordability.
00:01:29.740 You know which one I'm talking about, Rob?
00:01:30.860 I think you do have it.
00:01:32.360 I have where Momdani says that the meeting was productive towards the end.
00:01:35.980 Okay.
00:01:36.220 Let's watch this.
00:01:36.860 Go for it.
00:01:38.140 Appreciate it.
00:01:38.700 Please.
00:01:38.960 I appreciated the meeting with the president.
00:01:42.020 And as he said, it was a productive meeting focused on a place of shared admiration and
00:01:46.880 love, which is New York City, and the need to deliver affordability to New Yorkers, the
00:01:51.660 8.5 million people who call our city their home, who are struggling to afford life in
00:01:56.540 the most expensive city in the United States of America.
00:01:58.800 We spoke about rent.
00:02:00.180 We spoke about groceries.
00:02:01.240 We spoke about utilities.
00:02:02.300 We spoke about the different ways in which people are being pushed out.
00:02:05.080 And I appreciated the time with the president.
00:02:07.000 I appreciated the conversation.
00:02:07.940 I look forward to working together to deliver that affordability for New Yorkers.
00:02:12.840 Thank you very much.
00:02:14.380 Any questions, please?
00:02:15.900 And by the way, there's a clip where Trump says he would be comfortable living in New
00:02:20.140 York City under Momdani.
00:02:21.540 And then, Tom, I want to come to you.
00:02:22.600 Go for it.
00:02:24.600 Would you feel comfortable living in New York City under a Momdani administration?
00:02:28.540 Yeah, I would.
00:02:29.360 I really would.
00:02:29.940 Especially after the meeting.
00:02:31.420 Absolutely.
00:02:32.080 What makes you comfortable?
00:02:34.240 We agree on a lot more than I would have thought.
00:02:37.940 I think he's I want him to do a great job and will help him do a great job.
00:02:42.460 You know, he may have different views, but in many ways, you know, we were discussing
00:02:47.120 when Bernie Sanders was out of the race.
00:02:49.100 I picked up a lot of his votes and people had no idea because he was strong on not getting
00:02:53.700 ripped off in trade and lots of the things that I've practiced and have been very successful
00:02:57.920 on tariffs, a lot of things.
00:03:01.100 Bernie Sanders and I agreed on much more than people thought.
00:03:05.020 And when he was put out of the race, I think quite unfairly, if you want to know the truth,
00:03:11.300 many of the Bernie Sanders voters voted for me.
00:03:14.140 And I felt very comfortable, frankly, in seeing that and saying that and, you know, just turned
00:03:19.660 out to be a statistic, a statistical truth.
00:03:22.940 But, no, I feel very comfortable.
00:03:26.140 I would be I would feel very, very comfortable being in New York.
00:03:29.420 And I think much more so after the meeting.
00:03:31.240 Yes, please.
00:03:32.420 Tom, I would be very comfortable being in New York and much more so after the meeting yesterday.
00:03:37.420 What happened at the meeting yesterday?
00:03:39.400 The answer is I happen to think that Mandami got introduced to something called a spreadsheet
00:03:45.400 and that there's things that have to happen in New York that require federal money for
00:03:50.520 it to happen.
00:03:51.220 But what's very interesting is this is the way Trump negotiates.
00:03:55.100 Trump doesn't always spike the volleyball right there at the net.
00:03:59.000 Right.
00:03:59.320 And then posterize you.
00:04:01.700 He's like, we agree much more than we don't.
00:04:04.860 So Trump didn't say, I agree with Mandami.
00:04:08.480 You know, I've seen his side.
00:04:09.820 He said, no, no, we agree more than I would have thought.
00:04:13.400 And it's a negotiation going on.
00:04:15.080 That's what's going on.
00:04:16.180 And both of them are talking to their base.
00:04:19.740 So Trump is making sure the base, like us, you know, do not look at this and say, don't
00:04:25.500 kowtow to this guy.
00:04:26.880 Don't worry about midterms at this guy.
00:04:28.780 And I don't want that to happen.
00:04:29.760 I don't think it will.
00:04:30.500 But then Mandami goes on a day later, Kristen Welker, I meet the press.
00:04:34.860 It sort of doubles down on the evil, you know, the evils of the Trump administration a little
00:04:40.660 bit.
00:04:41.400 He didn't go.
00:04:41.960 He didn't go turn it up to 10, but he was on at eight.
00:04:45.300 So both men are talking to their bases after the meeting.
00:04:49.800 And Trump was clearly the alpha.
00:04:52.860 Just say yes.
00:04:53.540 It's just easy.
00:04:54.420 Just say yes.
00:04:55.080 It's like the elder statesman trying to help the guy standing by his dad's desk with his
00:05:01.100 hands holded.
00:05:02.800 It doesn't change who Mandami is.
00:05:05.140 But I happen to think that he got an economic lesson on what it's going to take to balance
00:05:09.200 the books in New York City.
00:05:10.640 And that Hochul's got to go from Albany to D.C. to get money that she can give to New York.
00:05:16.440 And I think that reality is coming home to roost.
00:05:19.220 And what do you think?
00:05:20.460 What are you going to make one more point?
00:05:21.520 Yeah.
00:05:21.860 And I don't think, you know, I was reading over the weekend that the city council in New
00:05:26.660 York is a little split right now.
00:05:28.920 They're not all lining up with Mandami, line up, line up, line up.
00:05:32.380 The city council in New York is a little bit freaked over the potential for losing business
00:05:38.200 and tax revenue.
00:05:39.080 I think, well, again, because you made a great point, Pat, when we were talking this
00:05:43.180 weekend about how you don't, nobody knows, like you don't know what, Trump knows what
00:05:47.100 he's doing.
00:05:47.680 He has it.
00:05:48.940 You know what I mean?
00:05:49.160 That look, that smile that's slapping him, it's all intentional.
00:05:52.240 I personally don't, I think, you know, he's a wolf, this guy's a wolf in sheep's clothing.
00:05:55.820 Like that smile, that touching his heart, I'm not buying it.
00:05:58.700 But what he said, and he doubled down here with Christy, Kristen Walker, where he said,
00:06:02.480 Pat, he's like, no, no, he is a fascist.
00:06:04.420 And my thing is, when you throw that word around, it's not like a harmless insult.
00:06:09.080 Guys, it's dangerous.
00:06:10.160 Everybody knows, what do we do with fascists?
00:06:12.060 Adam, you say that to somebody, you take them down, you strip them, you want to put
00:06:15.320 them in jail, you want to eliminate them.
00:06:17.020 So keep, that's, that rhetoric keeps going, keep going.
00:06:19.440 I think Trump does have something up his sleeves with this guy because he's too calm
00:06:23.560 and he's too complimentative because he has him.
00:06:25.860 I don't know what they were talking about.
00:06:27.100 And I think, Pat, he's going to give him the rope.
00:06:28.640 Go, go, go.
00:06:29.660 Everything that you're talking about, go do it.
00:06:31.220 And we're going to see in two years that it's going to fail.
00:06:33.220 I think that's that business savvy that Trump has.
00:06:37.120 He's going to let him do his own thing.
00:06:37.840 Here's a follow-up meeting with Meet the President.
00:06:39.800 Adam, I'll come to you right afterwards.
00:06:41.000 Go ahead, Rob.
00:06:42.040 NYPD would be the ones to do so.
00:06:43.500 In that press conference with President Trump, a reporter asked you whether you believe that
00:06:48.800 President Trump is in fact a fascist, a word that you've used in the past.
00:06:53.280 You were about to answer.
00:06:54.480 Then President Trump sort of jumped in and he said, quote, that's okay.
00:06:58.200 You can just say yes.
00:06:59.760 It's easier than explaining it.
00:07:01.620 So, Mr. Mayor-elect, just to be very clear, do you think that President Trump is a fascist?
00:07:07.500 And after President Trump said that, I said yes.
00:07:09.400 Look at that.
00:07:09.760 So you do.
00:07:10.740 And that's something that I've said in the past.
00:07:12.380 I say it today.
00:07:13.160 And I think what I appreciated about the conversation that I had with the president was that we were
00:07:17.700 not shy about the places of disagreement about the politics that has brought us to this
00:07:21.980 moment.
00:07:22.220 And we also wanted to focus on what it could look like to deliver on a shared analysis of
00:07:27.080 an affordability crisis for New Yorkers.
00:07:29.420 You've also said in the past that President Trump has engaged in a, quote, attack on our
00:07:34.200 democracy.
00:07:35.020 You've called him a despot.
00:07:36.520 Do you still believe President Trump is a threat to the democracy?
00:07:40.100 Everything that I've said in the past, I continue to believe.
00:07:42.340 And that's the thing that I think is important in our politics is that we don't shy away from
00:07:46.680 where we have disagreements, but we understand what it is that brings us to that table.
00:07:50.120 Because I'm not coming into the Oval Office to make a point or make a stand.
00:07:53.920 I'm coming in there to deliver for New Yorkers.
00:07:55.460 And a few weeks ago, I was...
00:07:57.940 You can pause the right to go for it.
00:07:59.560 Yeah.
00:07:59.780 To me, Trump knew exactly what he was doing.
00:08:02.820 Because when Mamdani fails, which he will, he no longer can blame Trump.
00:08:08.680 Trump could have gone super hard on the guy.
00:08:10.920 But he's like, come on, buddy.
00:08:12.000 We're friends, right?
00:08:13.360 Yeah.
00:08:13.800 Got you.
00:08:14.580 I wanted to succeed.
00:08:16.040 I want you to do good.
00:08:17.460 I'm here for you.
00:08:18.780 So now he can't play the victim.
00:08:21.500 You saw he treated me horribly.
00:08:23.780 I went there.
00:08:24.760 He disrespected me.
00:08:26.340 Now he has more rhetoric for his people.
00:08:29.140 Now he has to say, yeah, I met with the fascist.
00:08:32.280 And he actually was nice.
00:08:33.620 Yeah.
00:08:33.940 This nice fascist.
00:08:35.520 So the whole...
00:08:37.240 He took his power away.
00:08:38.500 He neutralized him.
00:08:39.640 Now he can't play the victim.
00:08:41.380 Smart move by Trump.
00:08:42.840 But how do you feel about saying fascist, threat to democracy, and still having that language?
00:08:47.760 I think if this was first term, he handles it in a different way, president.
00:08:52.080 I think it's second term.
00:08:53.900 And meaning, when it's second term, you already have your base.
00:08:57.720 You don't need to win your base over.
00:08:59.280 So some people on his base are going to be like, what are you doing?
00:09:01.460 I can't believe you gave him this.
00:09:02.780 And, you know, why you treat him so respectfully?
00:09:05.300 Do you not understand what's going on?
00:09:06.460 There's a bunch of people right now running as socialists, just so you know.
00:09:10.760 As socialists.
00:09:12.180 And some socialists are upset with him for how friendly he was with Trump.
00:09:18.620 They're upset with him and AOC because both him and AOC are now supportive of Hakeem Jeffries.
00:09:25.360 Even though Hakeem Jeffries is running against a socialist right now, they're not siding with a socialist.
00:09:31.020 So it's a very interesting thing that's going on behind closed doors.
00:09:33.880 So this could end up backfiring in a different way.
00:09:36.720 Look, Trump doesn't do stuff like this.
00:09:38.220 Trump's not trying to be, you know, he doesn't need new friends.
00:09:42.800 He's not sitting there saying, oh, my God, I want to be friends with this guy.
00:09:46.260 No.
00:09:46.520 And, by the way, if you look at Mamdani's body language, you know what?
00:09:49.840 This is the person that's running against, is this the one, Rob, that's running against Hakeem Jeffries?
00:09:54.500 Yes, sir.
00:09:54.820 He's a known socialist.
00:09:56.460 But AOC and Mamdani are siding with Hakeem Jeffries.
00:10:01.440 And socialist parties say, no, you're no longer socialist.
00:10:03.620 You are now in their capitalist.
00:10:05.540 You went from being a socialist to now you're a capitalist, sitting down with capitalists.
00:10:09.120 So there's some stuff that's going on over there.
00:10:10.700 But going back to it, if you look at the body language of Mamdani standing next to the president, you know what you'll notice?
00:10:16.920 I don't know if you know what you'll notice.
00:10:18.540 My opinion.
00:10:19.900 Do you notice a look like Mamdani's telling himself in his head, what is wrong with this guy?
00:10:27.780 If you think about it, like, is this the one where he pats him in the back and says, just say yes?
00:10:36.160 Let me just look at the body.
00:10:38.020 You know what the body language is?
00:10:39.260 The body language is like, what's he doing?
00:10:42.140 Yeah.
00:10:43.040 He's asking himself, what's the president doing?
00:10:46.040 Go back a little bit.
00:10:47.080 Go back 10 seconds.
00:10:48.160 Go back.
00:10:48.520 Go back a little bit more.
00:10:49.500 Rob, right there.
00:10:50.840 Okay, go ahead.
00:10:51.320 Watch this.
00:10:52.060 Just watch this for a second.
00:10:53.620 President Trump is a fascist?
00:10:54.940 I've spoken about.
00:10:56.000 That's okay.
00:10:56.560 You can just say yes.
00:10:57.660 Okay.
00:10:58.200 Go for it.
00:10:58.640 It's easier.
00:10:59.320 You have a slap.
00:11:00.260 It's easier than explaining it.
00:11:01.840 I don't mind.
00:11:04.580 I'm telling you, he is wondering.
00:11:07.420 What the hell's up with him?
00:11:08.320 What is wrong with this guy?
00:11:10.740 I am not at this guy's level.
00:11:13.440 He is getting ahead of it.
00:11:14.960 And Trump is right.
00:11:16.700 Let me tell you, if there's one thing about this guy, he pays attention to data.
00:11:20.380 He knows when the day Bernie Sanders lost, never forget what press conference, not lost,
00:11:26.080 when they asked him to step out, never forget what he did and how he leveraged that situation.
00:11:31.080 You don't remember what he said?
00:11:32.280 He defended Bernie.
00:11:32.900 He's like, they took it away from him.
00:11:34.360 Oh, yeah, that's right.
00:11:34.980 He says, you talk about democracy?
00:11:37.840 Bernie should be your candidate.
00:11:39.100 Oh, yeah, that's right.
00:11:39.660 And so Bernie's, the Bernie, what were they called?
00:11:42.940 The Bernie.
00:11:43.320 Bernie Rose.
00:11:44.300 No, there was another name for them.
00:11:46.280 They are sitting there saying, he's right.
00:11:49.640 He's right.
00:11:51.500 So they came to him or they sat it out.
00:11:56.020 They sat out and they're like, I'm not even voting for Hillary.
00:11:58.220 I'm not going to vote for Hillary nor Trump.
00:11:59.760 So sitting out was a victory for him.
00:12:03.020 So look, of course, I don't agree with the politics Mamdani is doing and the stuff he's
00:12:08.840 talking about.
00:12:10.160 But you have to know that Trump is playing games.
00:12:12.380 Adam, I think you wanted to say something.
00:12:13.540 No, he did the same thing with Biden and Kamala.
00:12:16.580 Yeah.
00:12:16.980 If you remember that, he was like, you're just going to anoint this person after just dismantling
00:12:21.980 Biden, when they inserted Kamala.
00:12:24.620 He's like, this is what you guys do.
00:12:26.680 He Trump is a people person.
00:12:28.540 So if you can attack him online, but in person, he's going to treat you nicely.
00:12:32.340 If you treat him nicely, he's going to treat you nicely.
00:12:34.580 Very smart move by Trump.
00:12:35.800 I wasn't a fan of this, but I think he handled it well.
00:12:39.020 Completely neutralized the guy.
00:12:40.360 Yeah.
00:12:40.600 They need the word fascism.
00:12:42.760 Fascism allows you to be like, I'm the freedom fighter.
00:12:46.500 I'm trying to overthrow fascism.
00:12:48.000 I'm trying to push it.
00:12:49.340 You have to call him there.
00:12:50.440 You can't just call him a Republican and say, I disagree with that politician.
00:12:53.520 You have to.
00:12:54.000 It makes you look.
00:12:55.240 It makes you look bold.
00:12:56.360 I want to play video for you.
00:12:58.700 It's it's there's profanity at the highest level.
00:13:01.820 If you got your kids sitting around.
00:13:03.900 This is like a scene.
00:13:06.140 If you're watching Indecent Proposal or if you're watching some of these movies, you just
00:13:10.180 have to.
00:13:10.720 You want your kids to see those movies.
00:13:12.360 Like if you ever watch Forgetting Sarah Marshall and you forgot the three scenes of Forgetting
00:13:16.600 Sarah Marshall.
00:13:17.640 The other day, I'm like, I haven't seen a movie for 10 years.
00:13:19.980 I sit there watching with the kids.
00:13:21.280 I'm like, oh, I forgot about these three scenes and you forget inside of you.
00:13:25.560 Right.
00:13:25.740 All these things.
00:13:26.700 Take my shirt, but not my eyes.
00:13:29.280 Take my eyes.
00:13:32.040 Oh, not the shirt.
00:13:33.760 You know, but I want you to watch this.
00:13:36.280 You know what this is doing?
00:13:37.260 You know what prompted me to want to play this video is these words.
00:13:40.500 fascist, racist, oh, take what else?
00:13:45.460 Chauvinist, bigotry, misogynist, Zionist, whatever you want to put, anti-Semitic, what
00:13:49.820 else you want to put in there?
00:13:50.960 It's all or Islamophobe.
00:13:51.880 Any of these words you want to put, they no longer.
00:13:55.700 Gay Jew.
00:13:56.960 They no longer.
00:13:57.940 Meaningless.
00:13:58.640 They no longer.
00:13:59.340 Not that.
00:13:59.760 By the way, I'm glad you don't read the chat.
00:14:01.880 I'm telling you.
00:14:03.540 Meaningless.
00:14:04.100 Meaning you.
00:14:04.720 One of the best things you do for your sanity is to not read the chat on DVD podcast.
00:14:08.840 Wait, people are talking about water.
00:14:11.220 People are saying things?
00:14:13.060 Wait, wait, wait.
00:14:14.140 What the hell did they update this app?
00:14:16.000 What kind of BS is this?
00:14:17.160 Hey, for those watching, just let her rip for 30 seconds so you can kind of get an idea
00:14:21.380 of what's going on in the chat.
00:14:22.320 Anyways, so this is the part where certain words no longer mean anything today.
00:14:28.220 Here's a guy that runs a nail salon.
00:14:30.100 Asian guy.
00:14:31.140 I've never heard anybody call somebody a bowling pin upside down.
00:14:35.660 But he went there.
00:14:36.300 Oh, my God.
00:14:36.460 Inappropriate.
00:14:37.280 So, Rob, if you want to play this clip, go ahead.
00:14:39.360 Come in here and pay me and then you can talk to us all kind of way you want to, bro.
00:14:43.640 The fuck?
00:14:43.920 I can talk to you however the hell I want to.
00:14:45.140 No, you can't not.
00:14:45.960 I can come back to your damn country if you want to act like that.
00:14:48.880 Back to the...
00:14:49.640 You just told me to go back to my country?
00:14:51.400 Yes, I did say that.
00:14:52.100 Bitch, I saw your fucking EBT card in there.
00:14:54.660 Guess who paid for that motherfucking shit?
00:14:56.940 I did.
00:14:57.540 I do.
00:14:58.460 Bitch, you know how...
00:14:59.460 Bitch, how do you want me to feed my kids?
00:15:01.300 I'm fat.
00:15:01.920 Oh, my fucking God.
00:15:04.320 Boy, you got me fucked up, bro.
00:15:05.860 Oh, my goodness.
00:15:06.640 I pay taxes for your fucking food.
00:15:09.420 Yeah, bitches like to eat and my kids like to eat.
00:15:11.380 I pay taxes for your fucking food and you told me to go back to my country?
00:15:14.600 Wait, wait.
00:15:15.020 That's what you do.
00:15:15.420 You're fucking lazy, big ass bitch.
00:15:18.820 The fuck look like a fucking upside down bowling pin looking ass.
00:15:23.040 You look like my fucking sububbin, okay?
00:15:26.000 Fucking potato beer looking ass.
00:15:28.240 What the fuck?
00:15:28.880 By the way, this...
00:15:32.100 I would love to see what this woman looks like.
00:15:33.680 No, no, it's just...
00:15:35.160 Like, this is real?
00:15:36.600 Yeah.
00:15:37.180 Where he from?
00:15:38.000 Where he from, though?
00:15:38.880 Can you check to see if Grok, if this is AI, if it's real?
00:15:40.960 Go a little bit lower.
00:15:41.260 AI, like, was it set up?
00:15:42.720 Or he's really doing that?
00:15:43.920 Go a little bit lower to see if it's AI.
00:15:46.060 Look at that bowling pin.
00:15:48.480 But when I heard this...
00:15:51.880 Is it...
00:15:54.160 This video appears to be from a Sally Beauty Supply Visible Science Initiative?
00:15:57.980 This is exactly...
00:15:58.740 So it is real.
00:15:59.440 That's a true story.
00:16:00.640 Rob, is it real?
00:16:01.420 It seems to be.
00:16:02.320 Oh, my God.
00:16:03.000 So...
00:16:03.320 But you know what it is?
00:16:04.260 Like, there's a part of it where it's like that fear of walking on X-rays.
00:16:07.520 People are just, like, done with it.
00:16:09.500 It's fatigue.
00:16:09.940 Everybody's just tired.
00:16:10.300 Yeah, it's just like, listen, man.
00:16:11.420 Leave me alone.
00:16:12.600 I'm just a regular person trying to live my life and calling him...
00:16:16.680 But he's saying what a lot of people are thinking, and his switch gets flipped.
00:16:20.780 The upside down bowling pin.
00:16:21.920 And then...
00:16:22.640 No, no, no.
00:16:23.220 I mean...
00:16:24.080 I don't even know what that means.
00:16:25.100 No, no, no.
00:16:25.820 Not the profanity.
00:16:27.040 The EBT.
00:16:27.980 No, but the things like, you're here in a beauty store and getting mani-pedi when you're
00:16:33.140 carrying an EBT card for your kids.
00:16:35.940 Do your nails yourself at home, right?
00:16:38.020 Trim them at home.
00:16:39.140 It's just like, that's what he's saying.
00:16:40.780 And he's saying, I pay taxes for that EBT.
00:16:43.320 There's an EBT in there.
00:16:43.980 How does he know she has an EBT card?
00:16:45.240 You can't pay for your nails.
00:16:46.600 No, he said he saw it.
00:16:48.100 It's a card.
00:16:48.620 Oh, you want to go bowling with your EBT?
00:16:50.560 Hang on.
00:16:51.120 That is what people think.
00:16:52.600 People do think that.
00:16:53.600 They're like, what are you doing?
00:16:54.980 I'm paying the taxes for this.
00:16:56.520 And then apparently she went off on him in some way, some level.
00:17:00.460 And he's like, whoa, you're messing with me.
00:17:03.060 How do you say this?
00:17:04.160 Are we defending the legal immigrant over the actual citizen?
00:17:09.760 Just because the citizen is ghetto?
00:17:12.920 No, I'm...
00:17:13.620 I'm asking.
00:17:14.420 I'm defending...
00:17:14.920 What is the question again?
00:17:15.980 Are we defending...
00:17:16.380 So are we defending the immigrant?
00:17:18.680 Yeah.
00:17:19.000 I assume legal.
00:17:19.880 Yeah.
00:17:20.700 Over the citizen.
00:17:22.100 Yeah.
00:17:22.760 Because he's actually working, doing his thing.
00:17:25.700 Well...
00:17:26.320 And she's living off the government with her kids.
00:17:28.940 Adam, what kind of a question is that?
00:17:30.200 I'm just asking.
00:17:30.800 What are you asking?
00:17:32.040 I'm just asking questions.
00:17:32.660 You ever wonder why Senna walks by and didn't give you a high five?
00:17:35.280 Yeah.
00:17:35.380 Because you ask questions like that.
00:17:37.220 What kind of question is that, Adam?
00:17:38.980 She's a citizen.
00:17:40.340 Senna is a citizen.
00:17:41.320 Senna is a citizen.
00:17:41.760 She's not paying taxes yet, but when we buy gum for her...
00:17:44.120 Listen.
00:17:44.380 If a guy is contributing to society, that's what you want.
00:17:49.360 That guy's contributing to society.
00:17:51.480 No, he is legal.
00:17:53.080 I'm saying, what happens if he was illegal?
00:17:54.580 No, no, no.
00:17:55.360 Then that's a different story.
00:17:56.080 You're breaking a law.
00:17:56.900 Okay, okay.
00:17:57.200 You're breaking a law.
00:17:58.000 But I think the point...
00:17:58.780 I don't know where we draw the line here.
00:17:59.200 The point with...
00:17:59.740 Going back to the Mambrani thing, Pat, this is going back to the Democrats and how they've
00:18:04.560 successfully made words like racist, fascist, Hitler, Nazi, like a throwaway meaning we hear
00:18:12.880 it now and we're like, come on.
00:18:14.420 Those words used to...
00:18:15.200 Like, think about it.
00:18:15.840 He's standing in the White House and he said, yeah, this guy, the president who's sitting
00:18:20.720 here is basically Hitler.
00:18:22.120 Because what other fascists do we know of?
00:18:24.340 Like, that's how weak those words have gotten.
00:18:27.840 And it sucks because when we actually have to use those words, when somebody's actually
00:18:31.760 racist, people are going to go, nah.
00:18:33.640 Now when another Hitler shows up, guess what people are going to say?
00:18:36.280 Is it like Trump, Hitler?
00:18:37.780 Oh, it's not that bad.
00:18:39.540 You can thank Trump, good, bad, and ugly.
00:18:41.700 Because you remember when he won, people were like, we could say the F word again.
00:18:45.700 We could say the R word again.
00:18:47.620 Trump, good, bad, and ugly enabled free speech, which I think is a good thing.
00:18:52.160 But now people are feeling a little more lippy, which is okay, but a little more racism is
00:18:58.440 out there in the atmosphere.
00:18:59.740 All right.
00:19:00.920 Let's...
00:19:01.440 No, Tom?
00:19:02.640 No, we're done.
00:19:04.180 Tom, you're more racist than ever.
00:19:05.520 He's walking out.
00:19:06.360 He's done.
00:19:06.740 The FLB shoots.
00:19:07.740 By the way, I am officially on...
00:19:09.920 Let me see this.
00:19:11.220 I'm on day 57 out of 58 that I've worn these shoes.
00:19:14.980 Love wearing these shoes every single day.
00:19:17.480 I think Vinny's got it on.
00:19:18.960 The other night we went to dinner.
00:19:20.740 Vinny was wearing this black pants, white shirt with the FLB shoes.
00:19:27.020 We walk into the restaurant, seven girls lined up waiting to meet with Vinny.
00:19:31.800 One girl was crying.
00:19:32.700 She was crying.
00:19:33.400 She was shaking.
00:19:34.020 She was crying.
00:19:34.540 She was shaking.
00:19:34.980 The shoes.
00:19:35.780 I was like, I can't.
00:19:36.560 Are you Ringo Starr?
00:19:37.740 So, for those of you guys that are asking about getting the shoes before Christmas for
00:19:43.840 your husband or your sons or your friend, this is what you want to be thinking about.
00:19:48.760 Size black and brown.
00:19:52.100 Size black and brown.
00:19:53.480 Let me see this thing here.
00:19:54.380 If I'm lying around, somebody's not...
00:19:55.500 Let's go...
00:19:56.340 What's available?
00:19:58.500 So, size black and brown, if you want to get them, size 9, 10, and 11 are available
00:20:03.960 to get before Christmas.
00:20:05.760 White, all sizes are available except for 7, 7, and a half, and 8, and a half.
00:20:10.180 Navy, 8, 9, 9, and a half, 10, and 11 are available before Christmas.
00:20:14.240 Of course, after Christmas, shipment is coming.
00:20:16.520 That'll be here New Year's.
00:20:17.260 These things, we can't even keep these on the shelves, to be honest with you, with the
00:20:20.120 shoes.
00:20:20.760 Once you put them on, just go read the reviews with people writing reviews when they bought
00:20:25.640 them.
00:20:25.760 Once you put them on, you'll realize why this has become as hot of an item for us as we
00:20:32.300 expected it.
00:20:33.120 It took us two years to do this.
00:20:34.240 Rob, if you want to play the clip on that, we'll get into the stories.
00:20:36.640 Here's the FLB shoes.
00:20:37.660 Go for it.
00:20:38.080 When we set out to create a shoe that blends comfort, function, and luxury, we had the
00:20:44.340 choice to make it fast.
00:20:46.020 We had the choice to make it cheap.
00:20:48.040 We chose neither.
00:20:49.580 Instead, we chose Tuscaneiro.
00:20:51.940 We chose true Italian craftsmanship.
00:20:54.540 Each pair touched by 50 skilled hands.
00:20:57.380 We chose patience, spending two years perfecting every detail, and we chose the finest quality
00:21:02.880 at every step, introducing the Future Looks Bright collection.
00:21:08.380 Not rushed, not disposable, not ordinary.
00:21:12.740 Rather intentional, luxurious, timeless.
00:21:20.820 I love it.
00:21:21.980 Design in Florida, 100% made in Italy.
00:21:24.760 Folks, if you haven't yet ordered one, we had two guys yesterday that ordered four of all
00:21:30.960 colors, and one of them was from UK.
00:21:34.740 The other one was from Belgium or something like that, ordering these shoes.
