3 Martini Lunch

Texas Dems Flee Redistricting, Georgia Senate Showdown, NYT Triggered by Trump's Fitness Test


Listen Later

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on Thursday’s 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they dive into Texas Democrats fleeing the state over congressional redistricting, the Republican U.S. Senate primary heating up in Georgia, and The New York Times whining about the return of the Presidential Physical Fitness Test.

First, they blast Texas Democrats for their blatant hypocrisy as members of the state legislature flee to Illinois in an effort to block a new congressional map that favors Republicans. Scot and Greg dig into the absurd comments made by Texas Democrats, and they thoroughly relish that Dems went to Illinois, home of the worst gerrymandering in the nation - by Democrats.

Next, they analyze the GOP U.S. Senate primary in Georgia, as Gov. Brian Kemp successfully recruits former college football coach Derek Dooley into the race. Two Republican congressmen are also vying for the nomination and actively courting President Trump’s endorsement. Scot hopes Kemp and Trump will unite behind a single candidate to boost Republican chances. Greg wishes that were the case, but he expects Trump to back one of the lawmakers, setting up a very intense primary.

Finally, they sigh as a New York Times news article suggests President Trump bringing back the Presidential Physical Fitness test "revives painful memories" for people who struggled to do pull-ups in front of their classmates. Scot and Greg contend the test is a good step in trying to get kids to be more physically active and that not doing well in certain areas should be motivation to get better.
