Summary

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up three good martinis. Today, they discuss Kamala Harris confirming she and Joe Biden had no major policy differences, Harris getting some tough questions from "60 Minutes", and Republicans gaining ground in three critical Midwest Senate races. Oh, and of course Jim has a couple of thoughts about the New York Jets firing their head coach.

First, they react to Kamala Harris telling the ladies on "The View" that "there's not a thing that comes to mind" when asked whether there was anything she would have done differently than President Biden. She also says she was a part of every major decision Biden made. Jim says this completely ties her to Biden's unpopular record and he is stunned she didn't come up with a single difference.

Next, they applaud Bill Whitaker of "60 Minutes" for asking Kamala Harris tough questions and good follow-up questions, especially on the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis. Jim and Greg also critique Harris’s word salad responses, as she tried to deflect blame onto Republicans while struggling to defend the administration’s failures on immigration.

Finally, Jim and Greg discuss the momentum shift in three key Senate races. With only four weeks left in the campaign, Republicans are gaining ground in Wisconsin, Ohio, and Michigan. Wisconsin is now considered a toss-up, Ohio polling shows a dead heat, and Michigan is within the margin of error, signaling that the GOP could make critical gains in these battleground states.
