Dems Still Stuck, Biden’s Gaffes & Gaslighting, RNC’s Regrettable Guest Speaker

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Today, Jim and Greg discuss President Biden's press conference last night and how Democrats are still twisting in the wind. They also highlight Biden's embarrassing verbal fumbles. And they weigh in on the news that former stripper and Kanye West girlfriend Amber Rose will speak at the Republican National Convention.

They begin with an overview of the press conference. Jim notes that while it was not bad by Biden standards, that still does not make it remotely good.

Next, they highlight some of Biden's worst gaffes from the conference, including referring to President Zelensky as President Putin and to VP Kamala Harris as "Vice President Trump." Greg notes Biden's horribly revionist view of the economy and his ongoing demonization if Israel. Jim says Dems should be shuddering over Biden's statement that he would refuse to step down even if the polls hypothetically showed that Kamala Harris was more likely to beat Trump than him.

Finally, they lament the Republican National Convention's unfortunate speaker choice of Amber Rose, an ex-stripper who dated Kanye West and has several other tawdry items on her resume. Jim wonders whose idea it was to pick Rose, observing that this decision makes the RNC seem desperate for anyone remotely famous.
