Tim Pool's Zohran Meltdown Backfires Spectacularly

The Majority Report w/ Sam Seder15:32

Transcription

Tim Pool, what uh what does Tim P have to say?

>> Uh he's talking about Zoron uh and his tax policy.

>> Oh, I see. Because uh West Virginia, what?

>> Well, I think he's in Florida now.

>> Oh, is he in Florida? No, he >> he's actually in Texas right now.

>> Is he homeless? I think he's on the land.

>> What's he going? Is he moving his family around like this?

>> I >> Doesn't he have a family? Doesn't he have a kid?

>> I I don't know.

>> You keep claiming that, but I have not seen any evidence to that effect. Well, I mean I I don't understand keeping your your family private, but dragging them around or is he going solo? I'm the employee.

>> I got to hit the road.

>> He might need to protect them because it's hunting season in West Virginia,

>> right?

>> Well, they don't hunt in Texas.

>> Keep them moving.

Framed this as Zoran Mandani finally admitting it. Workingass and middle class New Yorkers are fleeing the city. It is not just the rich. And the reason why it's not just taxes, cost of living is ridicul.

>> What is going on? Does he change his accent to like is he gets to Texas and all of a sudden he's talking like he's from uh like uh just came from the Bronx and

>> so I just I haven't seen this clip. Got to say he finally admits it. What is he talking about? This was central to Zoron Mani's campaign. He said that he wanted to make the city more affordable because workingass and middle new middle middle class New Yorkers are leaving the city.

>> Emma,

>> he's not saying that it's because of his policies. He's saying that his policies are designed to slow that role.

>> Uh listen, here's the point. Uh he's been a mayor for uh two almost uh almost two and a half months and uh we still uh he it took him so long to get rid of the snow uh that people had to move. Okay,

>> I guessulously high. They're let and why it's not just taxes. The cost of living is ridiculously high. They're letting in tons of illegal immigrants and giving them free stuff and free places to live. And then of course, yeah, you have the threat of raising taxes on the poor. Well, Zan Manani has said he wants

>> Can we just uh zero in on the Nazi lie that the reason things are unaffordable is because we're giving so much to uh undocumented people? Like how how is this just

>> how does that even work?

>> Yeah. Like

>> the problem is uh when you go to key food, all the food is gone cuz they're giving it to the undocumented who get here through a teleportion. uh machine and they get all the food and then the rest of us uh we have to auction off the the remaining food that's left after the undocumenteds get it.

>> This is his New York segment. Forget about it.

>> There's a recent study that came out that we'll probably talk about in the future that goes into why housing, for instance, is so expensive.

>> Oh, we'll talk about that.

>> And uh they, you know,

>> it's all the undocumented living in the nice apartment buildings. I walk around here in Brooklyn with all the things.

>> Funny enough, they don't even mention

>> doing the bowling alleys in there.

>> It's not even mentioned, the undocumented people because it's not relevant to anyone with a brain uh on this topic. The real issue is surprise inequality.

>> Whoa. Okay. To tax the rich. That won't work either because the wealthy have already been fleeing as well. On top of this, there is a new proposal to strip down the death tax exemption to 750K. The argument being, well, how many people actually make more or have more than that? The end result is obvious.

>> Can you pause it? I will.

>> I mean, he's saying death tax and he pretends not to be political anymore. It would be like calling if if I were to come out here and like call Democrats the Democrat party and like I'm actually on the left or what I mean maybe that's not a good example but he's using literally like polltested Republican terms to talk about protecting estates from taxation. I'm sure the audience that he's like uh speaking to is like this is so relevant to my life. Uh yeah, and this is also the property tax proposal that is uh going to be the second option if we don't decide to tax the uh 30,000 or so ultra rich that mom Donnie wants to tax. Um but lowering this we can get into the tax policy in a second the poor the property taxes really affect the poor

>> but of course he's using like yeah but I mean

>> well what they're saying is like what if you just have you want to give your $751,000 apartment to your kid now they're out of luck. But my understanding is it's about a priv primary resident. So you you'd be fine actually.

>> Yeah.

>> And you will be happy. These policies will not work. And then I actually question whether or not New Yorkers really wanted this guy to be in charge of their city or if our system is just so corrupt that evil people will steal power in whatever way they can. Now here's the video from Zoron where he basically says the quiet part. He beat Cuomo in two elections like massively handily despite Cuomo having a massive fundraising.

>> But he's using the Nazi lie that it's a uh it's uh illegal immigrants in his view that are stealing the election for Zoron

>> in whatever way they can. Now, here's the video from Zoron where he basically says the quiet part loud. Workingass people are out. But I got to be honest, I don't know that it's actually an admission so much as he's just pointing out this is a thing that's happening. And so at least I can say thanks for being honest. But listen to what he has to say here.

>> Incidentally,

>> Mani has been mayor for nine weeks.

>> Yes.

>> And ran on the premise that it was getting too expensive for these people TO LEAVE. BUT NOW I SEE HE'S actually saying it again.

>> He's saying workingclass people, you're out.

>> All he's done is in nine weeks he's been able to get uh universal uh child care. Uh but just for a year so far. Okay. So very suspicious.

>> This really became a Worcester accent.

>> Right.

>> So much as

>> people are out. But I got to be honest. I don't know that it's actually an admission so much as he's just pointing out this is a thing that's happening. And so at least I can say thanks for being honest. But listen to what he has to say here in this clip. Amidst being in the wealthiest city and the wealthiest country in the history of the world, we already see an exodus of working and middle class New Yorkers. So I don't have a hesitation in asking those who make the most amount of money in this city or the most profits in this city to pay a little bit more so that everyone can actually stay in this city. It's also something not just about justice or or the ability for working-class people to live here. It is also actually about ensuring that corporations can continue to attract the top talent to this city.

>> So he admits

>> and and and I want people to pay attention to this because if they had been following his campaign, they would see that he's been admitting from the time that he started his campaign even till now that the city is unaffordable for middle class working. He admitted the city's unaffordable.

>> He admitted it.

>> And you'll notice he's repeating the same thing that he has said with almost a pathological discipline since the day that he started his campaign, which is wealthy people are supposedly going to leave if I raise taxes minimally, but middle class and workingclass people are already leaving because they can't afford it. You notice that he's been saying that consistently. What's that about?

>> Corruption.

>> Corruption. Go ahead or not. Guys, I'm going to tell you something very very simply and straightforward and I hope Zoran Mandani listens because I genuinely hope he actually thinks about what can make the city better. Now, there's a reason why many people believe Zoran Mandani's true intentions cause harm.

>> Has Tim P ever lived in New York City? I know he was here at Zucati in 2011. I think he was staying at a hotel. I don't think he came from uh I think he moved here because he was like he he he visited here to shoot video game.

>> I I know he was had a bunch of but he moved in to New Jersey, right?

>> He lived in New Jersey. Has this guy lived in this city for more than a couple of months over the past 15 20 years?

>> Yeah.

>> You're going to hear that people have begged him to come here.

>> But he's going to give some tips. He's going to give some tips. I like the idea that he cares more about what's good for New York City than Zora Mamdani and the people who voted for him. Yeah, I believe that.

Guys, I'm going to tell you something very very simply and straightforward and I hope Zoran Mandani listens because I genuinely hope he actually thinks about what can make the city better. Now, there's a reason why many people believe Zoran Mandani's true intentions are to just cause harm and that communists do not have the best intentions in mind. But I will say this in the hopes in the hopes there is just a little bit of Zoran who genuinely wants to help but is just ignorant. I'm going to let you guys in on some internal working secrets.

>> Guys, we are about to get this.

>> Oh man, hold on. I want to hear these internal working secrets.

>> I'm going to let you guys in on some internal working secrets. Uh we were recently reached out to by a series of companies. Why indeed it is, my friends, that powerful corporations are realizing they've lost the media war and they need to get into this space. They're asking questions like, "We have teleprompterss. We pay massive $30 million salaries and these people got no talent." And so, there's a genuine question that's being asked of these media companies. And how is it that these these these podcast hosts have no teleprompterss, turn the camera on, and just run with it? Not everybody, but for me, hey, I'm one of them. They say Tim Pool can literally just run with it. And you know what? Abrasive. I don't swear all that much, but uh it's it works for advertisers. It's compelling. People like this content. He's got a big following. Let's let's give them a call.

>> And so I get a call. I GOT THE CALL. NO, I'm kidding. I uh there's there's there's always been business interests. I've talked with many companies throughout the years who have tried to negotiate either partnerships or yes indeed acquisitions. They say come with us. And we've always remained independent.

>> And maybe things will change in the future. I'm not Russian cut out to

>> but I tell you this a company

>> I just spoke to Edward Gregorian and he uh has reached back out to me uh go ahead

>> yeah how do they do this how how does their audio quality get progressively worse and worse as all of a sudden their Russian funding uh dries up and he has to apparently states

>> and I'm telling you something right now about all of these offers I'm getting I'm doing my research THIS TIME I CAN ASSURE YOU ALSO I don't swear but

>> how the am I even supposed to sell this property need acquisitions. They say, "Come work for us." And we've always remained independent and maybe things will change in the future. I'm not, you know, we'll see.

>> But I tell you this, a company says, "We're based out of New York." And I said, "Thank you and have a nice day." Click. Uh, we've had companies ask us if we'd be willing to do our show out of New York. And I always tell them the answer is absolutely not. And they say, "Is there look, New York's got a great talent pool. There's a lot of resources here. we could get you great advertisers. There are big podcasting networks that do ad sales and they say, "We could do a great deal with you. You'll make millions more. Your show will be a lot bigger. Come to New York City." And I tell them this, "The amount of money that I would lose by doing my show in New York City because of their tax insanity means you would have to pay me more than you could probably make on the show."

>> Probably.

>> And they go, "Yeah, New York City. By living in New York City and state, I think you're estimated to pay around 13 to 14% additionally as opposed to operating anywhere else. And we're in the DC area. And that means we have a lot of access to political to political talent. Now, obviously, we're currently in Texas because we're doing the show down here. And uh sometimes we we do this because well, there's a lot of guests that don't want to travel. We can get great people by coming to other locations. And to be honest, it's fun. Look, I'm s I work 16our days. I never leave. I eat the same restaurant every

>> Yeah. God, this is exhausting. We I have fun for like five minutes with his clip and then I with his clips I max out because it just gets into like I mean God his cadence is really frustrating.

>> The point of that segment is that he makes millions of dollars and he's a great broadcaster. Yeah,

>> the mom Donnie thing is so to what he's broadcast out of, by the way. Uh okay, we're in New York, but we should say that of course uh Mam Donnie has given us a major major tax break uh specifically for our show, the Majority Report break uh on the uh taxes. So, we are a tax-free situation. Uh we just have to prove we're adhering to Ramadan. The one thing is that uh we need to fast until sundown

>> and renounce our citizenship so we can become illegal immigrants and then he'll allow us for to have an additional tax break. So the story he told was that ultra rich businesses based in New York City were like, "Hey, we got all these teleprompterss and we give people giant salaries. Do you want to come?" And he's like, "You don't have enough money and and you don't have room to raise taxes up there."

>> There's a lot of like there's a lot of like contradiction. It's it's nuance, Matt. That's what you don't understand. It's nuanced.

>> Yeah. Well, I think it's a skill issue to not be able to do a show in New York. You know what I think clearly happened with this is that he thought he was gonna come and and and attack Mum Donnie

>> for something that he realized as he's listening to the tape wasn't there.

>> Yep.

>> Cuz all Mum Donnie was doing this definitely reeks of a segment where he got into wherever he was. his producer had set up like here's a clip of my because he came in he's like

>> get me a Mum Donnie clip and uh this is the clip that he came up with

>> and he's like so wait we oh he actually just all he's doing is saying that the city's not affordable enough

>> right

>> I'LL JUST TALK ABOUT how I'm getting offers uh in New York I'll just wing it I'll wing it I'll wing it that's what I'm good at I don't need a teleprompter I can just wing it I can wing it

>> this is what I'm going to do I'm going to go from my like Bronx tough guy uh talking like this and then get a little bit more fabulous as I go and a little more expressive. That's the way I'm going to do this one.

>> Yeah. If

>> he's a pro,

>> you raise taxes so much you can't even offer like poker and sushi with the boys after you do a show.
