The fundamental reason Repubs are unable to agree on a new Speaker is....

Cut the philosophical crap. Republicans hold a slim majority and all it takes is a couple of RINO's to derail the procedure. Combine it with the lock step democrats and their minions in the media and the situation will be dragged out for as long as they can manage. It beats talking about the world at war and a doddering old fool with his trembling thumb on the nuclear button.

they lack a philosophical organizing principle. What they have instead is not a fight over policy differences but rather a struggle among the factions for power. Kevin was able to keep the fractious coalition of disparate clans together for a short while. But the rules established an easy way for him to be disposed of. Now those clans are jockeying for influence more than they are advocating for a particular goal.

What's the path forward? I suppose a recognition this chaos can't go on. The challenge being some clans want the chaos.

True.

Or it can be said that Republicans’ philosophical organizing principle is more chaos, more dysfunction, and more efforts to sow division and discord.

The GOP is an international embarrassment. It’s made even worse by retards like Trump and Boebert and MTG in the House.

Because as a whole, they don't agree that the democrat party is destroying the country, so part of them, if not all, wishes to continue to go along with them.

Our own USMB rightists have demonstrated their advocacy for more chaos, more dysfunction, and more efforts to sow division and discord.

We see conservatives cheer on a dysfunctional, speaker-less House and celebrate a possible government shutdown.

Republicans are clearly unfit to govern.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

They chaos started when republicans lost the white house,

Exactly.

The chaos and insanity from the right likely has more to do with losing control of the WH than Trump being voted out of office.

Republicans perceive the WH as their ‘birthright’ – the executive branch is beloved by conservatives because it’s a fundamentally undemocratic institution where a Republican president can be installed contrary to the will of the people and conservative dogma can be implemented absent consensus and compromise.

Watching you guys blame the “RINO’s” for blowing up the house when it was right wing nut Matt Gaetz and his cronies that fucked you guys. LOL. Keep it up. No wonder you all hate education. It makes you feel dumb.

Sorry bout that,

1. Keep voting on Jordon, even if it takes all year.
2. These RINO's need to be exposed for what they are, LIBTARDS.
3. Vote 197 for Jordon, nope....we got to expose this bs, its not fair to claim your a Conservative, while voting with the Libtards.

Because the GOP is all about power and grievance (as a means to power) and not about policy.

Newsflash… after losing a secret vote (convincingly) he has withdrawn.

Let’s not forget Idiot Gaetz

 

[chesswarsnow]

Sorry bout that,

1. Its finished, the RINO's own the congress, with the Libtards.
2. Unless Jorden gets the call, I look for more batshit crazy stuff coming from congress.
3. Might as well get Pelosi back in there, its obvious.
4. Maybe she can switch parties and then get installed?

Lol it’s amazing how you idiots lack the most basic self awareness of being in a cult. If you think any Republican who isn’t MAGA is a RINO it’s because you’re in deep this is stupid Trump cult of personality. You’re completely brainwashed.
