Summary

WABC Host Larry Kudlow calls in to discuss New York politics, the economy, and President Donald Trump. Kudlow praises Curtis Sliwa’s passion but stresses that Sliwa needs a stronger economic policy platform if he wants to beat progressive candidate Zohran Mamdani in the Mayoral election, warning that real estate and business-bashing won’t cut it. Kudlow reflects on Rudy Giuliani’s 1993 campaign as a model—combining law-and-order with pro-growth policies like tax cuts and school reform. Kudlow emphasizes the importance of public safety as a driver for economic health and business retention. He also discusses the dollar’s weakness against the Euro, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s policies, and Trump’s ongoing influence on economic direction, including tariffs and interest rates. Kudlow says Powell is wrong to keep rates high and criticizes the Fed’s inconsistency. The great economist ends on a serious note, expressing deep concern about Mamdani’s antisemitic views, saying that New York cannot afford a mayor who promotes hate. He urges voters to protect the city’s future and its identity as a beacon of hope and tolerance. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
