Summary

Join Jim and Greg on the 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss Donald Trump’s potential progress on Greenland, Gavin Newsom’s focus on his public image amid a crisis, and President Biden’s confusing comments about Kamala Harris and the 2024 election.

First, they're interested in what might come next as officials in both Denmark and and Greenland are interested in further talks with the incoming Trump administration. Denmark says it won't sell Greenland to us but what positives could come out of further negotiations?

Next, Jim takes aim at California Governor Gavin Newsom, criticizing his self-centered approach during the ongoing wildfire crisis. Instead of locked in on the urgent situation at hand, Newsom seems more concerned with his personal image and public relations. Jim also explores how Newsom’s attempt to combat "misinformation" is actually generating more misinformation.

Finally, they scratch their heads after President Biden says Kamala Harris "could have and would have" beaten Donald Trump in the 2024 election. And his efforts to clarify only made things more confusing. Does Biden actually know what's happened over the past six months?

Three martini's coming up.

0:14.0

This is the last full Monday that you have to deal with Joe Biden as president of the United States

0:20.0

and Kamala Harris is vice president of the United States and Kamala Harris is

0:21.2

vice president of the United States. Jim, our four-year national nightmare is almost over,

0:26.0

but as we've learned already in this lame duck session, a lot can happen in a week.

0:30.0

We'll get to more Joe Biden in a second, but we do have good, bad, and crazy, so it's nice to have a good.

0:35.8

And Jim, the good is still in flux,

0:38.8

but it's not a no. So that's always happy. And that deals with the U.S. efforts to

0:45.4

probably procure Greenland from Denmark, which is a no at this point. But perhaps there's

0:51.4

something else that could happen there. In the first Trump administration, this was kind of a lark.

0:55.8

I remember our friend John Gabriel did the meme of the big Trump casino on the coast of Greenland.

1:01.0

Didn't really go anywhere.

1:02.9

It wasn't, as Trump says, one of his biggest issues.

1:05.9

Now he's been talking about this a lot in the transition period.

1:09.6

And a lot of folks are saying no this is actually

1:11.9

critical if we're on good terms with Canada and we're on good terms with Greenland or have a

1:16.9

significant role to play in Greenland that's a big part of the Arctic Circle and when you're talking

1:21.3

about space military work and other threats coming across the horizon. This is nationally strategically important.

1:28.6

This isn't just a lark. And so we'll see what happens here. But in addition to the fact that
