Join Jim and Greg as they applaud Gov. Ron DeSantis for his deeper explanation for why Florida definitely needs to be conducting its own investigation into this past weekend's attempted assassination of Donald Trump. They also discuss the pathetic question aimed at Kamala Harris in a rare interview opportunity and the weak argument that Donald Trump's love of golf is making him more vulnerable to being attacked.
First, they agree with Gov. DeSantis that state officials do need to be conducting their own investigation because there are some pertinent charges that federal prosecutors cannot pursue but state officials can. And while any prosecution ought to be based on the facts, limiting charges to just a couple of federal gun crimes hardly seems sufficient for a man caught trying to kill a former president who is currently a major party nominee for president.
Next, they groan as one of the panelists interviewing Kamala Harris at a National Association of Black Journalists event asks her the brutally tough question, "Why is joy important to you to insert into this election?" Jim notes that opportunities to question Harris are few and far between so you shouldn't be wasting them on things like that when there are many critical issues worth addressing.
Finally, they cast a skeptical eye on a Politico story suggesting that Donald Trump is putting himself in danger by continuing to play golf, supposedly because it puts a major strain on Secret Service personnel to secure the large amount of space involved. They don't doubt that it is challenging but many presidents have been avid players and Secret Service never seemed to complain about his before.
