The Michael Berry Show

I want to be very clear

I grew up

wanting to live in New York

I wanted to conquer New York the way Trump did.

I remember the first time I went.

I loved the energy.

I loved the international vibe with the muscular American corporate cultural thrust. Loved it.

I loved the brash nature.

Because I grew up in Texas.

Southeast Texas, Southern Gentility.

Gentility, Gentility sounds rich.

Southern manners, Southern decency, Southern kindness. And I thought it was fascinated, these people are complete asses, but they're

tough and brash.

And as I grew older, I came to realize I don't want to live that way.

They're obnoxious.

They're completely narcissistic.

Their whole world is them.

The whole world is can they cut in front of you in line.

Their whole world is their own little circle of their own little life of them all the time.

They're constantly in danger. It's a filthy city, it's loud, and it no longer even feels American in most of the

places. And I'm not ashamed to tell you that.
