Gaetz Milked McCarthy's Desparation To Get Every Concession He Could Think Of For His Vote

[occupied]

He is powerless and now beholden to what the constituents want. If only you had that with Pelosi. Maybe we wouldnt be burdened with trillions in debt, or do you dems actually want us to have trillions in debt?

He's not going to be able to round up enough votes for water if their asses were on fire. Any agenda they have for the foreseeable future is dead as infighting consumes them.

 

[Godboy]

Pelosi knew how to govern and work to get votes, including passing legislation. McCarthy is so desperate for the gavel he prostitutes himself.

She got votes that ruined our country. McCarthy wont be able to do that now.

 

[MarcATL]

All Democrats need to do is keep America informed of what the Republicans did in the two years up to 24, that's all.

And Hakeem looks like just the right man to do it.

The rules vote tomorrow should be either interesting or....

You are delusional. A fight for the Speaker = a dead foreseeable future? Pfff...

Not hard to get votes when Democrats held a unified majority....and when the vast majority of what Trump-obsessed Democrats were doing was running criminal 'Get Trump' schemes...

 

[Billiejeens]

Pelosi never had to worry about independent democrats because any opposing view would have been crushed and every opposition democrat would have been warned that he or she could be killed in their sleep by democrat/CIA/ FBI agents and activists like James Hodgkinson and the media would call it political suicide.

You're not wrong.

Democrats held a unified majority precisely because of Pelosi. Don’t you remember when the far left of the party were opposing Pelosi as Speaker after the last election that gave them a house majority? She was able to work a coalition without giving unreasonable concessions or groveling. You might hate her, but she is damn good at leadership.

She kissed AOC'S & Omar's asses, protrcted the anti-Semitescaved to stave off the threat to her beng Speaker ... IMHO...

You don't realize what these people are about to do your political hopes and dreams, but you will.

Yet you can't say what the final concessions are.

• Any member can call for a motion to vacate the speaker’s chair
• A McCarthy-aligned super-PAC (the Congressional Leadership Fund) agreed to not spend in open Republican primaries in safe seats
• The House will hold votes on key conservative bills, including a balanced budget amendment, congressional term limits, and border security
• Efforts to raise the nation’s debt ceiling must be paired with spending cuts
• Move 12 appropriations bills individually, instead of passing separate bills to fund government operations
• More Freedom Caucus representation on committees, including the influential House Rules Committee
• Cap discretionary spending at fiscal year 2022 levels, which would amount to lower levels for defense and domestic programs
• 72 hours to review bills before they come to floor
• Give members the ability to offer more amendments on the House floor
• Create an investigative committee to probe the “weaponization” of the federal government
• Restore the Holman rule, which can be used to reduce the salary of government officials

How? What did she agree to?

No need to. Once again, any MAGA proves to be 10X smarter than a RINO which is to say, another 2X smarter than prog-liberals!

It is so ordered by the Natural God.

McCarthy was so desparate at the 15th vote mark there was almost no concession he would not agree to IOT attain enough votes to win Speaker...

“I RAN OUT OF THINGS I COULD EVEN IMAGINE TO ASK FOR” - Rep. Matt Gaetz on Why He Finally Reversed Course on McCarthy for House Speakership | The Gateway Pundit | by Joe Hoft

The suspense in the US House of Representatives on Friday night was historic. At the end of the evening, Matt Gaetz held the cards and he eventually conceded in his efforts to withhold the Speakership from Kevin McCarthy.

The 20 held out against the 202 repo's and 212 dems who wanted to rubber stamp Pelosi's house rules.
Get with the program.

Democrats could not have had a better Speaker of the House than Pelosi.... She was in the right place at the right time. Her rules hurt no one, and she managed the division between the democrats and progressives quite well....keeping both sides happy with pursuits of different agendas! It was no less than a miracle.... Her experience raising 5 children gave her the experience she needed with the new younger democrats wanting to change the world, over night!

And she was the right Speaker, and strongest speaker we could have, while Trump...(the man of lawlessness) was President.

Seems like y'all hate her, because you were trained to hate her, and you were trained to hate her by your media handlers because she was successful in achieving the Democratic agenda....

and who knows....some of y'all probably hate her, because she was a successful woman....?


No doubt, she certainly was not perfect, but was the best Speaker the Dems have had since maybe, Tip O'Neal imo.

 

[my2¢]

I believe McCarthy is just trying to save face after claiming McCarty wouldn't have the votes today, tomorrow, next week, next month, or next year.

 

[struth]

That's why he's going to suck. Not sure why you want a powerless speaker but it must make sense in your sad universe.

what sort of power do you think the Speaker is suppose to have?

She blew money like a drunk rich kid at a strip joint!!!!!! She is the most irresponsible Speaker of all time. The damage she did to our economy will take decades to fix.

 

[scruffy]

All the revenge investigations they want and at least three impeachments.

Excellent. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of Stalinist asswipes.

Oh, so Joe Biden didn't cause it and Pelosi did, all by her lonesome? No Senate help and no President Trump needed, eh?
