So we had a decent discussion. Here is part one. Lets talk about why you want to president of the United States. Make your case. What were doing right now in people are hurting across this country. Weve had seven years of economic stagnation. People are out of work. Wages are not going up. Young people coming out school they cant find jobs. Weve got to change the path were on. My number one priority as president will be bringing back jobs and economic growth. If im elected as president , well repeal obama care. Pass a simple flat tax. Today is tax day. Every american will be able to fill out our taxes on a postcard. And well abolish the irs. Monday is tax day. But april 15th is the day. Today is supposed to be tax day. Today is the day people are thinking about it and theyre thinking about it wooing the check. Were going to get rid of all the complexity and all the mess and have a postcard return. Abolish the irs. Well rein in regulations hammering small business. Well stop amnesty and end sanctuary cities. The effect of all of that, well see millions and millions of new america. Well see jobs coming back from mexico, coming back from china. Well see manufacturing jobs coming back to the state of new york. Well see wages rising again and see young people coming out of school with two, three, four, five, job oners. That is what this election is all about. Senator youre in new york, just a few miles from here ground zero world trade center. Absolutely. Thousands of firstresponders came to the site and breathed poison air. The act was designed to help them with illnesses that occurred on that day and afterwards. You opposed it. That is what were reading up here in new york. Why did you oppose it. What youre read something not accurate. I support the sdroga. We should support the 9 11 responders. The reason i voted against it, it was rolled into a giant omnibus, in order to vote for it you had to vote for president you had to vote for bringing refugees to america despite the security threat. I would vote against that i would happily voted in favor of the is a droving ga act, but not if it melt involving policies. On this, couldnt you follow up and become a cosponsor of the act . Word in d. C. Among the republican delegation you were suspicious of the intent, that these were troops Civil Servants who are milking the system, who are exaggerating their illness. Do you believe my of that . No of course not. Do people believe that about you. It is sim flip not the case. I can tell you seeing tremendous support from Police Officers, firefighters, firstresponders. One of the most shameful things last seven years, president obama, attorney general, sadly mayor de blasio here in new york, in neustons after instance they side with the criminals, they side with looters and rioters instead of law enforcement. Blue here in new york, stood up and turned their back on mayor de blasio millions across this country cheered. As president well have a president if im elected who has the back, who stands with the Police Officers and firefighters and firstresponders and for that matter, who sands with soldiers and sailors and airmen and marines risking their lives every day to keep us safe. Senator, how do you explain the sandy bill which was going to help thousands of people in the tristate area, devastated after Hurricane Sandy . You didnt support that bill but you certainly supported the bill in texas to help the people who were victims of flooding. It is actually a very easy explanation. I said at the time of sandy we needed to provide hurricane relief. It was the right thing to do and i would have supported it. You know what washington did . They took that bill and loaded it up with 50 billion thats what they do with everything. But they dont have to. If were going to change it, we have 19 trillion in debt. It is larger than our economy. So i said at the time, lets fund sandly relief. Lets do what were supposed to do but dont fill it with billions and billions in spending. Sadly both democrats and republicans. They saw a sandy relief bill which is good thing. Let me stick on all the pork unrelated. If we dont stop this, our kids in the future theyre not going to be able to spend for the priorities of the future, for needs of the future. They will spend their whole lives working to pay off the debt of their parents and grandparents. I was elected by 27 million texans to fight for them to stop the debt bankrupts our country. All right. That is part one. Part two and part three are coming. Gets a little intense. We tried to get under his skin a little bit. Tried to get under his skin. He said stuff about new york. We had some things to say about that. We took offense to it. Rosanna, in particular you were terrific. Anyway, i have to say he is that is one heck of a intellect. Totally different looking in person. We were wow, you come off very different on air than you do in person. The thing is, he is a little sharper looking in person. He is. He is not so piesty and white pasty and white. It is true. On tv he looks so hard and pasty. I think he lost some weight as well. I was going to say, he is not quite as chubby. He looked different in person. I do too. People say the same thing. Youre not as fat as you look on tv. A little of you, we die a little it about, a little bit when we hear that. Anyway, audrey, what is going on . Looks like if youre going to be heading out today, you want to be bundled up, folks. Were a little bit chilly across the tristate area. Especially north and west we have reads in the 20s like monticello. 33 in poughkeepsie and 44 right now in central park. We have clear skies. It will stay that way as we go you can expect plenty of sunshine for your friday. Well take good weather right into the weekend too. High temperatures in the upper 50s across east end of long island. Well be in the mid 60s in and around new york city for today. Then tonight well have clear skis which will drop the numbers into the 20s north and west once again. In the city we should be near 40 degrees for the most part. Tomorrow in the 60s again. Sunshine stays with us right through the weekend. Highs moving into the 70s by sunday and monday. Well check in with ines and the roads. Nassau county seeing normal delays. Accident off to the shoulder on lie by glen cove road. Cross bronx is a mess. Live pictures by the sheraton. Left lane is blocked. Everything off to the shoulder. Everything is open eastbound by the sheraton. But delays back to the gwb. Earlier accident by the bruckner interchange. Those two problems, they have traffic at a crawl this morning on the crossbronx. As for trains, metronorth, Long Island Railroad and hi dad. Uh huh. Yeah. Sorry about that. Think about it there must be higher love down in the heart and in the stars above hi ted, glad you could join us, we think you re going to like these numbers. Bring me a higher love i could rise above music plays in this city, there is always a threshold waiting to be cros sed. Waiting for you to go beyond. To find the other side, to find yourself. Greater. Eight million footsteps daring past limits and delta, right there with you, as if all of us were saying together new york. Is. Go. Even when the deck is stacked, a new yorker will find a way to break up big banks, create millions of jobs, and rebuild america. Some say it cant be done again. But another native son of rebuild the middle class, make wall street banks pay their fair share, give every child a chance. New york its our time again to build a future to believe in. Sanders im Bernie Sanders and i approve this message. Pretty thick on the George Washington bridge, no . As we listen to music from our good friend seal. Remember when he dropped by . Love it. Steve miller band guy. Also steve miller. What is going on . Lets talk about there will be no new trial for the former nnpd trial peter liang. They were in court yesterday. There is peter liang where he he was convicted of manslaughter in the death of akai gurley. Here he is finding out the news.
