This is beyond a reasonable doubt with your hosts, Mark Geregous and Gary Smith.

GPS, how are you? We, I'm, uh, I'm, uh, I have a lot to say, but we, I think we're going to start with a video clip and then we'll get into our small talk after. If it is Mondami in New York, again, I think this has very important national implications.

So I disagree with you a little bit. I both agree and disagree. I'll tell you why. I disagree that the mayor

of New York sets the national tone in the way that New Yorkers maybe think that he does.

I don't think that people living in purple districts in the middle of the country actually

really care all that much who the mayor of New York is.

I don't think they do.

What I will say, though, is I think that to your point about Sister Solja, I actually do

think that those people should Mom

Donnie win. Those people should criticize him. That's fine. I actually think that's a good thing.

Separate yourself from somebody who's running in New York City, one of the most liberal

districts, places in this country, because you represent somewhere different. I think that's

okay and actually creates distance in a way that I think isn't bad.

But I also think that Democrats, national Democrats, have shocker wrung their hands about this too much.

I think Mom Doni has a lot of energy.

He's excited a lot of young people. He's brought a cohort of voters

who have been unsatisfied with the Democratic Party into the tent. And you have to win in order to win.

And I think that Democrats are constantly looking to try to take a loss out of a win. They're trying

to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. And I think that if Mandani wins with a coalition of voters who have been not all that excited about the Democratic Party

over the last few years, I think that's a good thing for the Democrats. And I think if you're

in a purple district, say you disagree with some of the things that he does and use that,

use that to establish your independent cred. All right. So we've got a lovely guest that we have to welcome, but I also, you know, have some things I got to say. Last week we opened with a clip of Shohei Otani's brilliant performance to close out the NLCS. And we came right out of the bath, right out of the gate with it, and it was great.
