SEVEN FIVE RADIO

You thought this election was one for the books, you haven’t seen nothing yet! David Duke loving, devout racist Donald Trump is having a campaign rally with all his MAGA hat wearing white supremacists in a place called Crotona Park. His red hat wearing supporters were already out rallying for him before the rally! This Crotona Park is located in the reddest of red counties called Bronx County, New York!

That’s right, Donald Trump is having a campaign rally in the Bronx. Not Riverdale, not Pelham Bay Park, not City Island, but in the South Bronx! How is this going to look with 3,000+  Bronx residents  hooting and hollering for Donald Trump!? This weekend Biden gave the commencement address at Morehouse College with about 10 people applauding his lackluster speech. The narrative about Charlottesville and alleged racism is now null and void. Look for Joe Biden to do a campaign rally in the ‘hood with high inflation, high gas prices and money given to illegal aliens over American citizens!

As for the idea of Trump coming to the Bronx, I attribute it to Charlie LeDuff! Why? Because he was the first to go out in the black community to see who they are voting for!

You all know what a wonderful person the World’s First Radio Spokesmodel, 75 Radio’s Danila Rodrigues is. You also know what a great person Alessandra Griffitt is! Both of these awesome ladies came to our shores from Brazil! Well, a funny thing happened down in Greenville, SC. I met some more Brazilians! They flew from Brazil to Greenville for the Political Cesspool’s 20^th Anniversary! Hell, I had to flip a coin to see if I was going to drive down. But calm down fellas. The other two from Brazil were dudes! The brothers, Eduardo and Henrique also couldn’t been any nicer! And Henrique must have brought his entire liquor cabinet up. I did everything I could to help take care of the bottles as I didn’t want Henrique to haul all those bottles home! I thought it would be cool to have the Brazilians in South Carolina chat with the Brazilians in DC in proper Portuguese, not Gringo Portuguese! And of course, the ladies in DC responded in kind!

I just wanted to say that the people of Brazil are the nicest people! I don’t know if its because me and James Edwards attract good people to our platforms, and some just happen to be born in Brazil! Don’t know and don’t really care. I can say that the friendships we do form because of this thing we call radio last a lifetime! And if they just so happen to be born in Brazil, or anywhere else so be it! We’re not complaining!

I always said that The Political Cesspool was always ahead of the curve. I wasn’t wrong this time as James Edwards wanted to celebrate 20 years of broadcasting 5 months early. We are that far ahead.

He held it in Greenville, SC which was a great choice as I could make it! Greenville is a beautiful city near Travelers Rest, SC home of Dixie Republic. 

I saw people I haven’t seen since 2007 including Eddie “The Bombadier” Miller. I met some of the smartest and hardest working people this nation never heard of. These people spoke numerous languages and held numerous jobs and many were raising families.  Friday actor Jack Antonio spoke and was telling his life story which was so New York City! Like Walter, he moved to Tennessee,  because New York left him. 

There were two Brazilian brothers that came up! I was like: “I know two Brazilians!” 75 Radio’s own Danila Rodrigues and the lovely Alessandra Griffitt! I thought it would be neat if the brothers would reach out to the ladies in proper Portuguese instead of Yankee Portuguese! And of course the ladies responded immediately! The brothers Eduardo and Henrique brought their liquor cabinet with them and I did my best to deplete it. But I did not run around with “green nipples” that Walter once accused me of having and Danila verified! 

The next day it was speech day. 20 years ago it was all “give ’em hell!” Now unfortunately it’s “run like hell!” I sat at the head table with James and his awesome family. He is a lucky man! Of course we were texting each other.  Mostly nonsense.  

James gave us a 2 hour lunch break which I used to walk around downtown Greenville.  I could see why Anthony Cumia moved here. Quiet, clean, no junkies, no panhandlers, none of the foolishness I’m used to seeing at home.

I thought this place was a gentleman’s club! They only served food.

Then it was showtime! James came out and was in his element. This is what he was born to do! I’ve been with the Cesspool for 19 years! I was still memorized how the kid did it. The idea was to have the shows crew come out the third hour. We’ll, this is the Cesspool! My 30 min dissertation was cut to less than 10! I came out and said: “Good evening Political Cesspool family. My name is Peter “Scoop” Stanton and I am the Washington, DC Correspondent for the Political Cesspool.” I wanted to make it about the Cesspool, not me or 75 Radio. It was James’ moment to shine. I wanted to hold the spotlight in his direction.

Then it was time for me to shine! James said that we had the room until 10. I told Eddie Miller to keep his set up on so I can use it in the meeting room James procured. Well, Eddie packed it up and now I’m scrambling! I’m grabbing my gear to leave and Sam told me we did not have to leave! The show is now starting and I’m calling in and Sam is setting up my gear! Eventually we are up and we are live in the room and on the air. And I can’t hear Walter or Mike! We also have James Edwards on. And I bomb! Badly! I stink! It was the Cesspool’s 20th, Walter makes a triumphant return, James Edwards makes his first appearance and I stink up the joint! 

The funniest moment James and Keith had a guest named Jason on. Jason and Keith were standing right next to each other sharing a microphone on a short cord. Keith had a thought grabbed the microphone from Jason and said: “Jason, this is Keith Alexander!” James and I looked at each other and we’re laughing our asses off! 

The best part was just hanging out with James. We didn’t say much to each other.  Didn’t have to.  We text more than most teenage girls. James has done so much for me that I’m forever in his debt. The best thing he gave me was his friendship! 

Here’s to another 20 years my friend! We’re going to do this longer than the “Rolling God Damn Stones!” 

Earlier this week Joe Biden spoke at a service dedicated for all members of law enforcement that died in the line of duty. And almost right on cue, President Biden spoke about losing his son Beau who died of cancer. I understand displaying empathy but, almost every solemn speech Biden talks about losing his son. If Biden is so distraught about losing his son, why didn’t he stay home?

Biden also claimed that he went down to Charlotte for the four members of law enforcement that were killed. I highly doubt that. We have heard nothing from the Biden Administration. If he did, he did it in private, not telling the rank and file in law enforcement that the President and Vice-President back them up. Trump on the other hand has a proven track record of supporting not only law enforcement but all first responders. Trump makes it a point to shake hands of the cops and firefighters weather the cameras are on or not. Biden has done nothing but trash cops since he took office.

Go to the 21:00 mark.

I went shopping for myself today. Total bill: $80. Where did I shop? Walmart! I bought Tide, razor blades, toothbrush heads, a bag of candy for work because some fat kid with sideburns can’t keep his fat hands out of the community candy jar. A bag of candy was $9! No beef and no alcohol!

I can only imagine how a family of four or five can do this? Forget Israel, Ukraine, abortion and the Trump trial. This is what the voter will (and should) think about going to the voting booth. How much did you pay for gas? Groceries? Utilities? Car payment? Mortgage payment? Rent? Do you go out to eat as much as you like? Can you go on vacation? Are you better off now than 4 years ago? I’m certainly not.
