Kari Lake Getting Swamped, The Vanishing President, Biden Nixed Gaza Pier Objections

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg for what Jim is describing as the "we told you so" edition of 3 Martini Lunch! Today, they discuss a new poll showing Kari Lake getting crushed in the Arizona U.S. Senate race, the public disappearance of President Biden, and a report showing Biden overruled his advisers in insisting upon the ill-fated Gaza pier.

First, they sigh as a new Fox News poll shows far-left Rep. Ruben Gallego leading Republican Kari Lake by 15 points in the Arizona Senate race. Even if the poll is a bit of an outlier, other surveys show Lake trailing by high single digits. The GOP should be able to field very competitive candidates in Arizona, but Kari Lake is not one of them.

Next, they wonder whatever happened to the guy who is apparently still the president. Biden seems to be in the witness protection program since dropping out of the presidential race, with the exception of his late night convention speech. So is he actually on the job?

Finally, they shake their heads as an inspector general's report shows that USAID officials tried to convince Biden not to construct the Gaza pier because even small waves would render it useless. But Biden rejected their advice and went forward with the operation anyway.
