Speaker 02:
Bill O'Reilly with a very deserved and enthusiastic congratulations.
Speaker 03:
Yeah, I gotta thank you for all the support on the book. We have a fairly extensive system across the world that gets our message out, but WABC is my flagship on radio, and you're my guy here, and I really appreciate it. Very nice of you to help me, Sid.
Speaker 02:
No, believe me, it's an honor for me. This whole relationship is surreal because I've loved you for so many years. And the book really is great. It's really, really great. So congratulations. So you saw this big pep rally last night at Nassau Coliseum. And, you know, I've gone to a few of his rallies, but this one endorsed the place shook. 18,000 strong, red, white, and blue everywhere. There were times the decibel was so loud, I couldn't believe it. It was really unreal to experience it. But what did you think watching from a different place?
Speaker 03:
I think it's a cliché, a double-edged sword. So the good news for Trump is that it gives him momentum. You can use those clips for TV ads, and I would if I were the Trump campaign. He's obviously getting mass media attention because New York City is the media capital of the world. And Long Island, I believe Nassau and Suffolk counties will vote for Donald Trump. He'll carry those counties.
Speaker 02:
In big numbers. And so will Anthony D'Esposito.
Speaker 03:
It should be a sweep. Yes. I mean, because the Democrats are running against the Republicans. And we'll get into that as it gets closer to November. A few of them are very questionable. But anyway, the danger for Trump is that he gets overconfident because the rallies feed him that electrical shock. And you can't do that at this juncture because the election is not assured. And if you think that because you get these record crowds, these tremendous displays of affection toward Trump, if you're the candidate... you can get intoxicated by that. Now, I've never been intoxicated in my life, but you can speak to that. Sorry.
Speaker 02:
No, that was a good one. Many years of intoxication, thank you.
Speaker 03:
You're right. But he has to step back and say it was a smart move for him to come and do that rally, and it worked out absolutely 100% in his favor. And I run an ad, I get it up and use her clip about people walking out of the rally, Kamala, and then I just cut to natural sound of the national rally. And then at the end I go, who's the truth teller here? You see what a devastating ad that would be?
Speaker 02:
It would be great. And take it from me, nobody left. I mean, he's out there.
Speaker 03:
No, no, no. That was all bear baiting that she did. It was a rehearsed thing. But all he had to do was turn to her and say, you wish you got my crowds, lady. And that was it, and not go into a diatribe. But anyway, I'm providing, I think, the best election coverage in the country. I'm sorry to be a braggart. And in coordination with Confirming the President's Book, this is the 19th number one New York Times bestseller that I've had. I think that's a record. Having my people look. And you know how happy the Times is to put my name at the top of that list. I mean, they're just going, oh, great, we got O'Reilly number one again. They love me over there. But I'm providing perspective here, and honesty, I hope, so that when people are talking with other people, which is the key to this race, the key to this race isn't, the debate. It isn't the commercials. It isn't going on Fox and Friends or even Sit in the Morning. It's other Americans speaking to their friends. That's what it's about. Because word of mouth will drive the winner. It's happened at every single election. Every one that we've ever had in this country, which is going back to the book, I chronicle how they all won. And we had some tremendous Idiots like Warren Harding. I mean, my God. The guy, well, you'll read about him. Kamala Harris' campaign is almost exactly what Warren Harding did.
Speaker 02:
Warren Harding's my hero, just so you know. Yeah, I know.
Speaker 03:
We talked about him last week. I know you like that he stayed up all night, every night, gambling with his friends. I understand that. I love that guy. There wasn't football betting back then, but if there were, Warren, he never would have come down. He would have stayed in his room every day. But anyway, Trump now has some momentum. So he lost momentum. And this is just like a sporting event. You know, listen to the Messier. It's just like a sporting event. So after the debate, Trump lost momentum. All right. But then Florida came and then Americans locked back in going to something very wrong here. And then as the media downplayed the second assassination attempt, and they did. Absolutely downplayed it. You can imagine if Kamala Harris was the subject of two assassination attempts, what the media would have done.
Speaker 02:
Just to emphasize how they downplayed it, there was one reporter who remained nameless who said, don't worry, Donald Trump's ears are okay. You can't make that up. But I did ask Rich Lowry earlier. I asked him, I said, you did hear it. Okay, great. So he didn't think the second assassination attempt moved the needle. You do.
Speaker 03:
Oh, yeah, because what it did was it focused people back on the man, Donald Trump. See, there's the political candidate. They're not really human beings. They're just not human beings. I mean, you ask Kamala anything, and she's going to tell you about a middle-class upbringing. I want to hit her with fish sticks when she does that, okay? If you're raised in the middle class, you know what fish sticks are. Okay, but I don't want to hear about fish sticks when you ask a question about Gaza, all right? You know, I don't. It's ridiculous. So candidates aren't human beings. They're caricatures. But then when something bad happens to them, they become human beings. You see my point here?
Speaker 02:
Oh, absolutely. Yes.
Speaker 03:
And when you become a human being, you are much more likely to succeed because Americans collectively are fair-minded people. And then they look at it and they go, there's something wrong here. All right? So you can see in the poll in the last week, new poll out today, which I'll report on the No Spin News and on Common Sense at 9 o'clock on WABC, Trump's improved his situation by five points since Florida. And that's because people are starting to lock in, going, yeah, they're demonizing him. But, you know, he's a person, and everyone has to know in your heart, even the Upper West Siders have to know that his policies are much stronger than Harris' policies. As a historian now, that's what I'm talking about. There's no—there's just—it's not even close. It's like comparing— Abraham Lincoln to James Buchanan, the worst president of all time, in front of him. Biden, it was such a disaster. And you can prop him up and say he wasn't, but you believe in what you want to believe. You are not believing reality. If you believe this man was a good president and Harris cheerleaded him on. I made this point. I know you got to go break. For three years, what we heard from Biden, Harris, and Mayorkas, the head of Homeland Security, who should be deported. That's the guy I want deported first before any of the migrants if Trump wins. Mayorkas, deport him anywhere.
Speaker 02:
Damn right.
Speaker 03:
For three years, we heard the border is secure. They wouldn't even acknowledge the millions of people pouring in here. And then all of a sudden, she's running for president, and she goes, oh, I'm going to get tough on the border. Wait a minute, lady. Hold it. Hold it.
Speaker 02:
I mean, you know, even before her, you had Biden doing nothing for the better part of three years. And then he wrote that executive order, which was just a couple of months before the election, before his disastrous debate performance, because he was trying to save his own political ass.
Speaker 03:
Right. But even fourth graders understand this. And that's why she doesn't answer any questions. Because she was a cheerleader for the open border. She was telling everybody Biden economics was just brilliant for people going to the grocery store. So anyway. What Trump needs to do now, since he has got some momentum, and again, the sports analogy, is just go on policy for the next five weeks, and you will win.
Speaker 02:
Bill O'Reilly, the man, 9 p.m. weeknights, BillOReilly.com. About three or four more minutes to go. Sitting there last night next to Bruce Blakeman, front row seat, by the way, Bill, and listening to Trump and he's going on and on about how Iran hacked my email. Iran hacked my email. And, you know, of course, this whole Israeli conflict really is all about Iran. And that's a whole other thing where Trump has a huge, huge leg up on Kamala. But, you know, he gets into these other things, you know, that I'm sure you're taught. They're eating cats and dogs in Ohio and all this other craziness. And so when you say that he's got to stick to policy, what have you heard from Trump over the last couple of weeks that you think he can do without?
Speaker 03:
Well, the Ohio thing, the Springfield, Ohio thing, he botched that with the dogs and cats.
Speaker 02:
Well, wait a second. You say he botched it, but even though David Muir said it wasn't true, I think David Muir was wrong. I think some of it is true, some of it.
Speaker 03:
I doubt it on a mass level. You're always going to have psychopaths and nuts. But the issue itself is tremendous. So you have a 60,000 population base in this town. That's like Hicksville, all right, Long Island. And then all of a sudden you have 20,000 Haitians, some of whom don't speak English, come into the town. All of them need government assistance.
Speaker 02:
No good.
Speaker 03:
No good. That's a third of the population that is now foreign national. And the citizens are overwhelmed and the social problems are all over the place. So that's what you have to do. You have to say, this is wrong. These people are getting hurt, these citizens of Springfield, Ohio. And if he would do this, he'll never do it, but I would. I go, look, I feel sorry for poor anywhere in the world. But we can't have absolute chaos descending upon our country, hurting everyone. And that's what I'd say to Pope Francis, too.
