Talk about an another win for democrats and another loss for republicans who have proven over and over how dysfunctional the party really is at governing. The GOP continues to embarrass themselves with their infighting.

Nice to see some of the ballsier (comparitively) Republicans put their foot down on Gym. It's about time.

I see he wants a public vote, since he figures they'll be afraid to vote against Trump's wishes.

What a fuckin' mess. Predictably.

It seems like the only way or the go back to McCarthy...

Thing is, GOP have had votes and had a winner. That was Scalise. The MAGA crazies didn't like that and they refused to vote form him and wanted Jordan. Thing is, Jordan did not win the vote, he is not the popular choice, he is the gun to the head choice, vote for our guy or no guy...

There is enough GOP who have copped on... You don't get your guy because you are crazy...

 

[Mac1958]

Also there have been reports that donors (as we've discussed here) have had it with the ignorant clown show.

Good. The only way this is fixed any time soon is from WITHIN.

I think the boys in the swing states are starting to figure out that showing some bipartisan approach will make them more electable because right now they are getting kick out... They look like idiots..

Yep likely a moderate speaker and probably going to be some concessions for power sharing. Expect the dems to end up getting committee chairmanships on some committees and also expect any impeachments of Biden to be stopped as part of the negotiations for the dems support.

Honestly, I’m fine with that. Repubs in the house want to act like a bunch of kids, they deserve to have to give up their power and let dems control things.

I think that scenario is very likely, and very likely that some RINOs will go along with it. That's their nature.

I'd rather have Jeffries than another Kevin McCarthy clone. At least with Hakeem, you know what you're getting, a big-spending Democrat who thinks that money is unlimited and that there is no downside to running up massive debt. Better that than a Rep who pretends to care about being responsible, and then caves.

The RINOs who go along with the European style coalition government plan, will be promptly primaried into oblivion and Reps who mean what they say can run against Dems who mean what they say, and the voters can choose. By 2024, it should be obvious to most Americans how bad the Dems are for our economy.

How so?

The RINOs have two choices.

1. Elect a leader that is acceptable to Freedom Caucus

2. Elect a leader that is acceptable to the goddamn Democrats.

To me that is a no brainer seeing that compromising with the Democrats always leads to disaster and that the Freedom Caucus is about fiscal responsibility.

However, I bet the RINOs will fuck the American people and go to bed with the filthy ass Democrats. It is not like they haven't done that many times before.

Let’s just face it: the GOP is terrible at governing and democrats are not

BREAKING: Republican House Speaker candidate Jim Jordan gets devastating news as multiple House Republicans threaten to skip the speaker vote that he’s trying to force — which will allow Hakeem Jeffries to win and become the House Speaker.

But it gets even WORSE for Jim Jordan…

A Republican Congressman told a reporter, “What happens when Jordan forces us to the floor to try to pressure us and all of a sudden we don’t show up and Hakeem Jeffries is speaker cause he wanted to be a bully?”

Adding insult to injury for Jordan, several moderate Republicans told CBS news today that “they would oppose his candidacy,” leaving Jordan’s bid to be speaker in “grave doubt.”

This is brutal news for Jordan, because he can’t afford to lose just FIVE votes — whether they vote for someone else or they simply don’t show up to vote at all.

If that happens, which is now becoming a real possibility, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries will become House Speaker Hakeem Jeffries — and today’s Republican majority will go down in history as the most embarrassing, dysfunctional majority in the history of the U.S. Congress.

Trumper Jim Jordan thought that being elected speaker would be a cakewalk, but now it appears that it may backfire in the most spectacular way imaginable.

Not gonna happen....

The party that likes to fuck kids always talks about shit that could happen (in their wet dreams).... but they remain congenital liars and 0 for about 75,000.

It does not matter. Quick death or slow death is still death. Trialism is coming. And that is doable. This is why the white nationalism crap is spewed. The traitors to globalism know it.

I'm glad to see Scalise bowed out. Probably saved his life.

Let’s just face it: the GOP is terrible at governing and democrats are not

The freedom Caucus is saying "enough is enough".

The filthy ass Democrats say "It is never enough".

The RINOs say "Whatever the Democrats say".

I love it when lefty twats start strategizing for the GOP.

The freedumb caucus is about whack-jobbery and grandsanting for the cameras, nothing more. They're the idiots who got you guys into this mess to start with, or did you forget that already?

I'd rather have a party that has members that think for themselves rather than the Democrat Party where everyone is either lock-step or kicked out.
