The Mark Simone Show.

710 W-O-R.

Hey, we'll take some calls.

800, 321-0-7-10 is the number. 800-3-2-1-0-7-10. Let's go to Chris in New York City. Chris, how you doing? I'm good, thanks, Mark. I hope you're doing well, too. Listen, I've made the mistake, but I listened to the Sunday talk shows just to see what everybody's saying. And they're all kinds of, all the channels except Fox, which I don't really watch, are implying that Trump is slowing down and he's not as good as he was in age as a factor now. They're trying to make it that. You saw that too? No, but that's, uh, and they do that.

That's the Saul Olinsky playbook. Whatever your problem is, accused the other person of having it. And, and they're all they're doing, CNBC, uh, CNN, they're all like talking about, you know, age is starting to become a factor with him. He's really slowed down, look at him three years ago, look at them now.

Okay.

But that's what I wanted to say.

I mean, I know it's not true, but.

No, but it's in the, they love this Saul Olinsky playbook. Saul Olensky wrote the book, Rules for Radicals. Hillary was a big believer. Obama was a big believer. The media, they followed this, Saul Olensky playbook, and one of the big chapters in there is whatever you have wrong

with you accuse the other side of it so if you've got a candidate that's so old and feeble and

brain dead and deteriorating accuse the other guy of it if you got a totally corrupt kid and a

totally corrupt family and you've been influenced pedling accused the other

guy of it and the reason you do that is it just muddies up the whole argument it just

confuses the whole thing and if you keep doing that when the other guy brings it up it makes it

sound like he's just making it up so they they love this Soloninsky playbook. Hey, movie theaters are back. What's the deal? Are they really back? No. No, not at all. Once the pandemic hit, everything went streaming. And once the pandemic ended, a lot of people realize, hey, wait a minute, this is a lot better watching at home.

Why don't have to go sit in a crummy movie theater?

I can have any chair I want at home.

I can have anything I want to eat.

So it's never going to come back.

Let's see, 20, 23.

It looks like it's down 20%.

Oh, no, it's up 20% from last year.
