I think it is a very important message that we all need to realize, both in New York City and across the country. And it's part of the reason why I endorsed State Senator Zellmüller-Meyer back in February, because we really do need a new generation of democratic elected officials, of people who understand that business is not as usual right now.
You know, President Biden, I think, should go down as one of... the most consequential presidents because of all of the legislation passed in his first two years but he was operating in a world that no longer exists and so in it's it's really time i think for us to move forward rather than continually reaching back into the past for people and ideas that are stale.
I think this is a good example of how sometimes politics does not bring out the best in our country.
And I think that oftentimes that is ultimately too much of the litmus test.
Aber jetzt, dass ich hier bin, ist es interessant, die Innerworkings davon zu sehen und zu sehen, wie die Maschine funktioniert. Und es funktioniert. Und ich denke, dass Name-Rekognition in den Wahlverwaltungen viel ist, richtig? Und die beiden haben weit und weit die höchste Name-Rekognition. Das kann sich ändern, als du näher zu den Wahlverwaltungen kommst.
I mean, I think probably the the constituents of mine that you are talking to.
Ja, ich meine, natürlich. Aber du hörst, dass die Stadt kompetente Führung braucht. Und Andrew Cuomo ist jemand, der hat einige persönliche, ernsthafte persönliche Verletzungen und hat, ich glaube, einige echten Schädel auf seine Regierungen.
Und ich denke, viele Leute scheinen das zu überprüfen, weil sie ihn als den kompetentsten Managern und Exekutiven im Bereich sehen. Und das ist wirklich nach den letzten Jahrhunderten oder so, das ist wirklich, was New York City braucht.
I really like the idea of people who have new ideas, new energy, will hire very smart people to execute and manage, but have a different vision that is forward looking. And that's certainly what I'm trying to be myself.
Look, if you name your team after a submarine chain restaurant, you just can't talk trash about fantasy football.
I'm going to let the person you directed that to... There's one person, I think, who knows what I'm talking about. I love it. But needless to say, fantasy football is something I very much look forward to.
The MeidasTouch Podcast · Rep. Dan Goldman is Fighting Back as Trump’s Plans Backfire · 15 Mar 2025

Oh, look, everybody's very scared. Not only is everybody scared, the uncertainty, the haphazard way, the whiplash creates a tremendous fear. And so even if the economy itself is actually better than one fears, the uncertainty drives companies to be conservative and either certainly not hire, maybe freeze, spend less money.
And so what this whiplash with the tariffs has done is it's not only clearly driven up prices and is going to drive up prices, But it has spooked the American economy because there's no clear strategy here. It is purely Donald Trump's whims and latest gut feeling. And a lot of times just his tough guy routine where he needs to win the battle of wills. And so I think it's got everyone very scared.
And I think that's why the Atlanta Federal Reserve is so noticeably anticipating and predicting that there's going to be a real constriction in the economy. We've seen it in the stock market, but we're going to start seeing it in the unemployment numbers as well.
You know, Ben, whatever you want to say about the November election and the outcome and some mythical mandate that Donald Trump claims, the exit polling was very clear that the number one issue on voters' minds was the economy and affordability. And Donald Trump promised to make the cost of living much more affordable for lower and middle class Americans.
And what he has done since January 20th is the exact opposite. He not only is making it less affordable, as you just said, inflation is going up, the cost of eggs and groceries are going up, all costs are increasing, but he is also whacking and slashing critical vital services and funding that middle and lower income Americans rely on.
And so Elon Musk might think that the federal government is the same thing as Twitter, but the downside to cutting 75% of costs on Twitter is that you have a crappy social media platform. The downside of cutting half of the United States government is that tens of millions of Americans who rely on that funding don't get it. And it's going to harm a lot of people.
It is going to hurt our health care. It is going to hurt our housing. It is going to hurt our food insecurity. I mean, the list goes on and on and on. Seniors, veterans. And then to make matters worse, they're going after Medicaid.
with 72 million Americans receive their healthcare through Medicaid, about 40% of children, almost two thirds of seniors in nursing homes get their healthcare through Medicaid. And there's no way to meet the house budget without absolutely slashing Medicaid. And Elon Musk has said, as you pointed out, Social Security and Medicare are also on the chopping block.
So this was a complete bait and switch by Donald Trump, who blatantly lied to the American people in the lead up to the election and now is betraying every single one of his campaign promises.
