What We’re Politically Thankful for in 2023

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Continuing their long Thanksgiving tradition, Jim and Greg unveil their lists of things they are politically thankful for, although this year they don't stick as close to politics as they have in past years. Jim reflects on last week's Pro-Israel march in Washington and the stark contrast to the hateful and often violent demonstrations we've seen from the left for many years. Greg explains why he's thankful for Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin despite a disappointing year for Republicans in the commonwealth.

Then it gets more personal, as Jim discusses how thankful he is for his family and that we never know how many Thanksgivings they will have together. He urges you to find common ground with your loved ones beyond politics. Greg echoes Jim's thoughts but also highlights the many aspects of life for which we need to be thankful and to Whom we need to be thankful.

Finally, Jim gives thanks for the gift of humor to help us through one difficult news cycle after another, while Greg is grateful for the states giving parents more options on where to send their kids to school and how to pay for it.

There will be no episode of the 3 Martini Lunch on Thanksgiving Day. Join us the next day for our Black Friday special, when Jim and Greg select gifts for various political figures.
