Manifesto Proves Motive for Latest Trump Assassination Attempt

from 3 Martini Lunch – Political Humor & Commentary · host Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down multiple angles of the attempted shooting of President Trump at the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday. They discuss their relief that the incident did not turn out far worse, the left’s bizarre insistence that the would-be shooter was not political despite his manifesto, and Trump’s argument that the threat proves the need for a White House ballroom. Plus, some great news for a good friend of the podcast.First, they breathe a sigh of relief that the attempted shooting of President Trump and other administration officials did not become deadly. Jim explains what the environment is like around White House Correspondents Dinner and the surrounding receptions. They also credit the Secret Service for quickly taking the gunman into custody while examining the serious security concerns exposed by the incident.Next, they focus on the would-be shooter and his manifesto. Jim and Greg are stunned as Barack Obama and others on the left claim the motive was unknown long after the manifesto had already been released.Then they react to President Trump suggesting the White House Correspondents Dinner crisis is the clearest example yet of why a White House ballroom is needed. Democratic Sen. John Fetterman agrees. Jim says the ballroom is a good idea overall but explains why it would not be the proper site for this specific event.Finally, they share a very encouraging health update from columnist and frequent 3 Martini Lunch guest host, Jon Gabriel.Please visit our great sponsors:Pocket HoseFor a limited time, get two free gifts—a 360° rotating pocket pivot and a thumb drive nozzle—when you buy the Pocket Hose Ballistic; just text MARTINI to 64000, message and data rates may apply.OneSkinTarget the visible signs of aging with OneSking’s OS-01 Peptide.  For a limited time, try OneSkin with 15% off using code 3ML at https://Oneskin.co/3MLNew episodes every weekday. 👉 Subscribe to the show so you never miss a moment.Follow us for more daily clips, updates, and commentary:FacebookInstagramYoutubeOther InfoWebsite
