GOP Favored in House Midterms? Newsom's Gerrymandering Obsession, Hunter Biden's 2024 Excuses

Join Jim and Greg for Thursday’s 3 Martini Lunch as they assess a strong outlook for House Republicans in the 2026 midterms, Gov. Gavin Newsom's scheme to gerrymander California’s congressional map, and Hunter Biden’s ridiculous excuse about why Democrats suffered major losses in 2024.First, they are pleasantly stunned to see that House Republicans are predicted to pick up seats in next year's midterm elections. While there is a long way to go before the 2026 elections, the GOP is in a much better position that the last two times it faced midterms with a president of their own party. The Democrats are also contributing to this trend thanks to their staggering levels of unpopularity.Next, they react to Gov. Newsom once again worrying about national politics and his own political future instead of the many problems in his state. Newsom is now planning to gerrymander the state's congressional map - especially if Texas Republicans do the same. He doesn't seem bothered by the fact such a move would violate the California constitution.Finally, they roll their eyes as former DNC Chairman Jaime Harrison launches a new podcast and has Hunter Biden as one of his first guests. They also laugh as Biden suggests Democrats lost so badly last year because they "did not remain loyal to the leader of the party." Jim has choice comments about why both Harrison and Hunter Biden are not worth our time. Greg explains what would have actually made the conversation worth listening to.Please visit our great sponsors:Stop putting off those doctors’ appointments and go to https://zocdoc.com/3ML to find and instantly book a top rated doctor today.  If your business can’t adapt in real-time, you’re in a world of hurt.  Get the free e-book “Navigating Global Trade: 3 Insights for Leaders” from NetSuite by Oracle.  Download today at https://NetSuite.com/MARTINI No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.
