If you think politics is broken, wait until you see what voters are actually rewarding—and rejecting. This episode of The Rant Network dives straight into the growing divide shaping North America, where one side is punishing establishment dealmakers while the other is elevating increasingly radical voices, leaving businesses, investors, and everyday citizens caught in the fallout. From primary upsets in Texas to controversial leadership battles in New York, the conversation forces one uncomfortable question: are voters demanding stronger leadership—or just reacting against failure at any cost? Whether you agree or disagree, this is a raw look at how political decisions translate into real-world consequences for markets, cities, and national stability.

Memorial Day And NYC Fan Ban

SPEAKER_00

Oh man, welcome back, Stuart. I gotta tell you, you know what, Stuart, Memorial Day. You know, you and a lot of you guys in the US shut down. I gotta tell you, it's just amazing. But you know what doesn't shut down, Stuart, at this time of year? Sporting events. I don't know about you. You don't, you're not a sports guy, so you don't follow basketball and hockey and all that kind of stuff and the craziness that goes behind it. But do you know that in New York City, a team that's gonna go to the finals? Guess who kiboshed any attempt for basketball fans in New York to celebrate? Premier Zoran Mandani. He decided that it was impossible to police, and it would be bad if it would if that was to occur. Imagine celebrating fans in New York City is okay. But those other protests, they're no no, let them go. But pick fans, you get screwed by the mayor, but it doesn't seem like that's the only one, the only group that's not happy, Stewart.

Two Primaries Two Americas

SPEAKER_00

Tell us about Mozorhan Mamdanny in New York.

SPEAKER_01

Well, it's a little more than one dami. Let's start off. There are two primaries that happened last night, two different parties, two completely different directions. Go figure. Welcome to America. In Texas, Republican voters just threw a 24-year sedent veteran into the political dumpster and handed a seat to a fighter the establishment has been trying to destroy for years. And New York City Democratic voters are on the verge of handing their mayoral nomination to a Democratic Socialist, who they did, whose anti-Israel agenda is so radical, his own supporters are protesting outside his new residence. I think it's called Gracie Manner, I believe. One party is uh purging its cowards, the other is crowning its radicals. And you want to wonder why the country feels like it's split in two. You know, I think that's an easy, easy rant today game for us.

Texas Revolt Against The GOP Establishment

SPEAKER_01

Let's start in Texas. Because what happened last night is not a footnote, it's a declaration of war against the Republican establishment that began in 2015 with an escalator ride down Trump in New York. Ken Paxton, Attorney General of Texas, impeached by the establishment, invested, investigated by his own party, left for dead by the donor class, just defeated John Cornyn, the Republican Senate primary. John Cronin, 24 years in the United States Senate, Mitch McConnell's right hand, the living, breathing symbol of everything that is wrong, go along, get along, deal making Republicanism is gone. Finished, primaried into retirement by voters who are absolutely done being managed by a party. It doesn't matter what party. And how did it happen? One world, one word Donald J.

unknown

Trump.

SPEAKER_01

The president endorsed Ken Paxton. That was at a ball game. At a ball game, he he announced his support. Trump backed candidates. He didn't dig you know TV ads, just at a ball game. All of them carrying that endorsement like a golden ticket. The left would like to think it's a golden noose, but let's see. John Croynan didn't lose a primary last night, he lost an auto, an autopsy. The voters of Texas performed a political post-mortem of 24 years of Washington deal making, and the diagnosis was clearly fatal for him. You want to know what Republicans' base is saying? They're saying we don't want a manager. We don't want a deal maker. We don't want people who go to Washington and become Washington. We want fighters. And last night, Texas just proved the Republican base. Now, let's flip the coin because the GOP is doing surgery on itself, cutting out the dead tissue, getting lean and mean. Where the Democratic Party is doing the exact opposite. They're not purging the radicals, they're promoting them.

New York Mayor Race And Backlash

SPEAKER_01

Zora Mandami, the socialist, who ran for mayor in New York City, the we're, by the way, the largest Jewish population outside of the state of Israel. And his campaign platform read and was written by a Hamas fundraising office. Anti-Israel at the core, BDA, BDS adjacent economics. And it was confirmed. All of this has been confirmed. It's not Stuart and David making this shit up. You can go and Google it and find whatever source you want, left and right, internal and external. But all this is at New York's expense. Again, people don't seem to understand there's ramifications for some of these decisions. Here's what makes even more stunning sense, really. Mandami is not just losing Jewish voters, he's fracturing his own coalition. There's a protest scheduled at Gracie Mansion, organized by the Muslim community members. Go figure against him. Republican Newswire, Mandami faces Muslim problem ahead of Gracie Mansion protest. That's from yesterday. When your anti-Israel platform is too toxic for your own base, you haven't built a movement, you built a circular firing squad. And eventually they're going to come looking for you. And it isn't an isolated case. Listen, a Democratic candidate in Texas in a separate race who openly called Zionists to be imprisoned and caged was toppled yesterday. Thank God, after a massive backlash. You know, when a when a controversial Democrat calls to imprison Zionists, which I ranted about on Friday, you know, it's about time. Toppled, done, gone into history, you asshole. Because even in Democratic primary voters in some places still have a line they won't cross. And that's just fucking anti-Semitism and racism at its core. But Madami is still standing. What a fucking prick. Still leading in polls, still likely the you know, you know, gonna continue to be the Democratic mayoral, won't be impeached, thus. And it's the greatest city in America, or was that's what he'll tell you. It's the greatest city, and it's where the Institute of the Democratic Party is right now. Let me drop my fist on my desk because David doesn't like me calling it the hammer. I didn't say that, but okay. Here's the con you need to burn into your memory. And I want you to leave with this where David takes over here. The Republican Party just made itself stronger by rejecting weakness. Texas voters looked at 24 years of John Cornyn. I work across the aisle and said, No, I want a fighter who's going to impeach or who has been impeached by his own establishment and survive. He had cancer and he survived. He's in remission. That's the kind of toughness Republican voters seem to want. That's energy. That's definitive energy. If it doesn't kill me, it makes me stronger. Meanwhile, the Democratic Party is watching itself leading mayor turn New York City, which is the heartbeat of Jewish America, life in this country, into a platform of anti-Semitism, anti-Israel, anti-Zionism, anti-anything Judaic. And the party's response, like little Debbie Wasserman Schultz, amongst many others, accommodation, calculation of silence. One party's getting stronger, the other's getting more radical. In November, the American people are gonna sort this out. Which direction do they prefer? My money's on the fighting side. Now, it's not those calling to fight, fight, fight against democracy and calling another party a terrorist organization, Hitler, or anything else, which is just as five old hags on the view, or MS no, no, no, no, no, now because they just can't get anything right.

Canada Detour And Leftward Drift

SPEAKER_01

Like David, you're in Canada. You got what Jagnet Singh, who went full end Israel.

SPEAKER_00

No, your D D your ID Jagmut Singh is not in power for over a year. The I is wrong.

SPEAKER_01

It went full anti and it collapsed. You know, let me finish the fucking sentence.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, really? Would you shut up and stop renting for 25 minutes? Fuck, get to your fucking point. Stop breaking on Canada. You were talking about the US, you dipshit.

SPEAKER_01

Listen, the NDP's had the backlash. When is Mandami's backlash going to be? Paxton, you know, is proof that Trump's endorsement is still the single most powerful Republican voice in this country, right? When are you gonna get a voice in Canada? Like I sent you a couple of uh leave Canada out of this.

SPEAKER_00

Leave Canada out of this. Focus on the US.

SPEAKER_01

You love to look, you look at Canada like the like what it's the you know, because I said I saw on my Instagram. Oh, your your you your your computer in Canada, your internet, they're fucking with your internet in Canada, you're getting all choppy. But what I'm trying to get across is I sent you some Instagram crazy reels where we talk about health care, we talk about the liberal decade that has almost bankrupt an entire country, which I grew up in, David. So why do I talk about Canada? Because I'm from there, you asshole. But let's get specific. You're the one who's living there, you're the one who's being raped and pillaged by its own government on a daily, hourly, every fill-up, every time you talk to me on the phone, turn on your tap and pour some water. You know, tell me, David, what is gonna go on there? I clearly what's going on here is obvious.

SPEAKER_00

Uh, you you like you made a fruit salad here. What the fuck? Let's let's focus first of all on what your country is doing before you talk about mine, because mine is sunk. Okay, we've got 11 years of liberal governments, we got 11 years of promises that are unfulfilled, and we've got 11 years of failing government. And if you really want to see what it means to be moving to the left, ladies and gentlemen, and I'll have to I'll have to admit here, and Stuart's gonna love this, he's not wrong. Canada is in deep shit because we've gone so far left with our ideology that Trudeau has sunk this country. His idea now that he's with you know Katy Perry, he could care less about like about you know his his uh Canada's future, but he left us in mired in shit because these all these lefty ideologies, climate. He threw he told us that the that Canada was going to be done for because of climate change. Wrong. He said we're gonna be fine, we don't we need a carbon tax across this country because it's all about you know raising taxes will help us here in Canada. Wrong. Everything he said has been wrong, and Canadians like fucking sheep elected another liberal government because they think that the liberals have the solution, because the belief is that Republicans come or conservatives are just gonna rape and rape Canadians, we're gonna lose everything. And little fucker

Independent Voters And Protest Candidates

SPEAKER_00

Carney, our prime minister, who I keep calling him that, has been screwing Canadians left, right, and center. Pay attention, people, it doesn't work. Stuart, in the United States today, 45%, 45% of voters are not registered to a party. That is, according to Gallup, as of the beginning of the calendar year. It's not a pretty sight for Democrats and Republicans because only half of the remaining are either Republican or Democrat. That's the crazy thing. And it's split right down the middle, 50-50 in that in that sense. And you could see right now where people are literally fed up. Let's go back to Maureen Galinda, that bitch who decided to she needed to incarnate you know, in you know, intern Zion American Zionists. She lost to Johnny Garcia. And you want to know what the message in Texas was? You don't fucking Texas like that. That's not the way things are done.

unknown

Nope.

SPEAKER_00

And then the same thing, the same thing happened with Thomas Massey, who revealed his true sense saying, Hey, you should just vote for me because I have been here forever. I am the deal maker. And the reason I lost my seat, as he said on NBC, is because I was gonna work with the left. Nobody, it's because you are the part of the cancer in politics, using Jews as your way to get elected. Because when you lost, right? When you lost, you piece of shit. What did you do? What did you say? I was looking for my opponent in Tel Aviv. Ha ha ha. What does that say about what Donald Trump is looking for in his party? He's not looking for the people who are card-carrying racists, he's not looking for people who promote socialism, he's looking for people who want to fix America. And in the in when I brought up at the beginning what's going on with Zorhan Mamdani, that's exactly what people are seeing. A socialist

Socialism Versus Reality From Cities To Europe

SPEAKER_00

mayor who just doesn't get it, who simply doesn't get it. You saw what happened in Seattle, Stuart, when and you see what's happening in other when when you when you decide, okay, my socialist views matter more, and I'm gonna screw the corporations, and then they pick up and leave. Guess what they do? They run like little puppies, going, no, no, no, no, don't leave, don't leave. You're gonna create problems for me. And that's what Mamdan is doing. All of a sudden, he ran to those billionaires that he claimed that you know he's gonna tax the shit and go, oh no, no, please don't go. Are you really a socialist, you piece of shit? Or are you just liking to talk and and you like to babble like morons? That is what people are discovering. And as you go to the to to the to this midterm election, and the Democrats are waving their yeah, we are gonna sweep the dem, we're gonna sweep the House and the Senate because people hate Donald Trump. Yeah, people hate what's going on right now. Oil prices have gone up, gas prices have gone up. I get it, cost of living has gone up. But you know what? Under Biden, this was worse. And yet, you know what the reaction is? No, no, no. The only flaw is on the Republicans. The only flaw is Donald Trump. Voters are not that stupid. And you, Hakeem Jeffries, and you, Chuck Schumer, you continue to believe that the that the voting population is stupid. You still hook yourself onto socialism, and you double down when you let when you let guys like Bernie Sanders run to Maine with an absolute fascist, literally fascist candidate with a big swastika on his chest. And you're like, Yeah, we need guys like him in America. What is that message? Americans are finally pushing back, saying, Enough. We see what goes on in Canada, England, France, where this socialist movement is screwing people. If you paid attention to what's going on in Spain, it's even worse. Where there's socialism in a capitalist mindset or country, it's not working. You want to know why Keir Starmer, in the Prime Minister of England, is in so much trouble and why he keeps losing votes, is because he's done nothing but hurt the population. Soran Mamdani is hurting his population. In folks in Washington State and in Oregon and California are recognizing we are getting hurt. You know, the big joke was Ronald Reagan and Arnold Schwarzenegger were governors of California, they were Republicans. Go back, and you will see that those are the two governors where the state was at its finest and where it's its lowest right now, is after people like the former governor, you know, who of California, who loves to, you know, pretty hair and podcasts, and maybe he's gonna run for president, and maybe he's not, and da da da. Folks, if you put out AOC as your candidate for president, nah, they won't.

SPEAKER_01

She's she's not going to. She wants the Senate, she wants to be the next Nancy Pelosi, next Billy.

SPEAKER_00

King Jeffries, wakey wakey. You've brought into your party and you've accepted your party a left hardwing group. Well, he is left hardwing. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Look what Trump

Cleaning House Culture Fights Closing Takeaways

SPEAKER_00

is doing. He's getting rid of these radicals. Massey can freak out all he wants, and others will freak out all they want, but Trump is cleaning up house because he wants not loyal soldiers, but loyal Americans, loyal patriots. That's what he's going for. You may not like his brand of America because, oh no, you know, so he doesn't want transgender and you know, you know, you know, biological males in in sports. I mean, you gotta understand that when you've got other when you've got many Americans are saying we don't want biological males in women's sports, wake up, it's got nothing to do with racism. Okay, when you're being anti-Semitic and you're putting out candidates who want to incarnate you know, intern Jews, this is not what Trump wants. Trump is winning because Americans are aligned in this way. Akeem, if you want to win the next election, meet Chuck Schumer, you want to win the next election? Baby, you need to listen to the voters, especially in your own party.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, not much that I have to add to that. That's pretty much wraps that shit up, David. You think I ranted a wild, dude. You ranted just as long as me. The big dick war never ends with you. Have a good day, everybody. See you on Friday.
