“It’s humorous that you just asked me that query because you realize exactly the reply about that,” answered Ortiz.

“I simply thought I’d like to listen to you,” mentioned Merloni.

“ that Dan Shaughnessy has been an asshole to every person,” responded Ortiz. “So what can I let you know? It’s no longer a surprise for me. It’s not a surprise for ya’ll. He didn’t vote for me, so what can I do?”

Cohost Christian Fauria asked, “Isn’t that anyone’s abuse of energy?”

“He’s received no rattling energy, bro.” replied Ortiz. “ that. Just the facility of the pen to put in writing what he imagine on. However all and sundry knows that he’s an asshole. What else can you do?”
