Do Dems Hate Trump More than They Hate Violent Crime?

Episode length: 27m

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser taking heat from other Democrats for wanting to continue cooperating with the feds to fight crime, the August job numbers coming in lower than expected, and Joe Biden being more clueless about his own pardons that we previously knew.

First, after reacting to Trump urging two candidates to drop out of the New York City mayor's race, they welcome Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser wanting to keep working with federal officials as much as possible to fight crime - even when the current emergency is over. Of course, other Democrats in the city are horrified that Bowser would want to keep the relationship going. So, who do lefties want to stop the most - President Trump or violent criminals?

Next, Jim and Greg grimace as the August job numbers come in at 22,000, well below expectations. Will this finally trigger an interest rate cut? How much are the tariffs impacting these numbers? And are the shifts partly due to illegal immigrants losing or leaving jobs while American citizens step in to fill them?

Finally, Jim and Greg shake their heads at reports that Biden staffers didn’t know whether to move forward on pardons and commutations in his final year because the president never reviewed the files. Most of the orders were signed with an autopen, revealing Biden was even more disengaged on the issue than previously thought.
