Join Jim and Greg as they tackle a wide variety of martinis today. First, they are gratified to see a sexual predator like Harvey Weinstein headed to prison for rape and sexual assault although they’re disappointed to see him acquitted on the most serious charges. They also cringe as the spread of coronavirus in South Korea, China, and Italy send global markets sharply lower. And they shake their heads as they walk through all the massive tax hikes Bernie Sanders wants to inflict in order to pay for has laundry list of new entitlement programs. And they preview what should be a feisty debate among the Democrats in South Carolina tonight.

Jim should know better than to say that someone convicted at first trial is necessarily going to serve time. It’s still possible, although perhaps unlikely, that either or both of Weinstein’s convictions could be overturned on appeal.
Don’t know what to say if Bernie winds up the nominee. I doubt the soi disant élites will learn any more than they did with Trump.
No way to know for sure. But I think it’s quite possible that Sanders could beat an incumbent Cruz or etc, easier than Trump.
