| 0:00.0 | Mr. New York. It's Mark Simone on 710 W.O.R. |
| 0:06.7 | Well, we've got lots to get to. We'll get to the sub-disaster. We'll get to Joe Biden, |
| 0:12.1 | the massive cover-up that's going on right now. We'll get to Greg Gutfeld and more. |
| 0:18.0 | Hey, DeSantis is hopeless as a candidate right now. It was idiotic of him to run at this time. He's a young, young guy. He's 44 years old. He's got plenty of time to run. He's not a good speaker. He has no campaign skills. Doesn't know how to work a room. Terrible debater. You can fix all of this stuff. Bill Clinton was a |
| 0:39.3 | really bad speaker in 88. He made one of the worst convention speeches ever. But he worked his |
| 0:44.5 | ass off learning how to be a great speaker. Four years later, he was the best order in politics. |
| 0:49.9 | Same Mary Okumma was not a good speaker when he was Secretary of State, but he really, really, really worked on it. |
| 0:57.7 | And by the time he was governor, he was the greatest orator in American politics. |
| 1:02.3 | You can learn this stuff. |
| 1:03.5 | So DeSantis, and I don't know if DeSantis can learn it. |
| 1:06.2 | You've got to have the discipline and you've got to have put the ego aside and really work on it. Desantis may be able |
| 1:13.0 | to do that, but it'll take him four years at least. So he should not be running now. Very, very |
| 1:18.7 | weak campaign skills. So that's why he started off kind of close to Trump. Then he dropped to 10 |
| 1:24.0 | points behind. Then he campaigned more, 20 points behind. He went all over television, |
| 1:29.2 | did a million interviews, then he was 30 points behind. In some of the real polls, not those |
| 1:34.3 | cheap public polls, the real ones, he's 40 points behind. So it looks hopeless here. And once the |
| 1:40.1 | debates start, he's finished because he's a terrible debater not good in debates so but people still |
| 1:46.5 | say why not have a trump dissantis ticket to santis as the vice president there's a lot of reasons |
| 1:53.1 | not to do that uh there's about four or five reasons why you choose a vice president. One is based on the state. |
| 2:02.7 | Hopefully he comes from a state that you need to win. Like in the case of Kennedy, he hated Lyndon |
| 2:08.3 | Johnson, but he picked Johnson because he needed to win Texas. And Johnson could bring him a win in |
| 2:13.8 | Texas. In the case of DeSantis, Trump, you don't need DeSantis. |
