Trump faces new Jan 6 crisis

[EMH]

You mean everyone march in lockstep behind der fuhrer?

Repubs like to discuss their options before making decisions

Fascists support

gun control/confiscation
state sponsored DNA discrimination
hate hoaxes/false flag attacks
election fraud
socialism
using biased/controlled media to lie to the people
sick experiments like Fauxi and trans surgery
state funded abortions
censorship
requiring "papers" to move freely



If you want to see an American Fascist LOOK IN THE MIRROR.

They have three days to elect a Speaker. Republicans will elect whoever Trump tells them to elect and right now that is Mike Johnson.

And as a Zionist Fascist Traitor yourself YOU LOVE MIKE JOHNSON... and cussed both times when the assassination attempt failed...

Easy Peasy

With a slim majority, can Republicans put aside their grievances ?

Yes, and all of this hand-wring is being done to get their names in the press in a dead news cycle.

Can Republicans show they are capable of leading the country?

I wouldn't bet on that. Gaetz s buddies are already fired up.

Republicans are ready to block Trumps certification

Republicans fear Speaker battle means they "can't certify the election"

Some Republicans are urging President-elect Donald Trump to reaffirm his support for Speaker Mike Johnson.

www.newsweek.com

The first vote of the new House, when lawmakers are sworn in on January 3, is on electing a speaker. Then, on January 6, the House will meet to certify the results of the 2024 election.

Republicans elected Johnson as House Speaker in October 2023 after they were unable to agree on a replacement for three weeks after ousting the last speaker, Kevin McCarthy.

But Johnson is now facing a rebellion from House Republicans over his handling of government funding. The GOP's slim majority in the lower chamber means Johnson can afford few defections if he wants to keep his hold on the gavel.

These clowns couldn't organize a kegger in a brewery.

Kookbot hope......

Actually that is a concern expressed by a republican congresscritter.

What if no Speaker is elected by Jan 6th after a presidential election?

By law, January 6th is the date on which a joint session of Congress meets in the House chambers to count the electoral votes cast for the presidential election, and certify the results. What if on

Then how’d we win?

 

[rightwinger]

Even if we want to make the argument that the House consists of zero members, and so zero members need to be present, this loophole is forbidden by 2 USC 25, which states that the Speaker must be chosen, and all members sworn in, "previous to entering on any other business." The 12th Amendment vote-counting process would certainly count as "other business."

Republicans are incapable of responsible governance.

Sheer stupidity.

So whats the answer?

Simple
Republicans meet behind closed doors and resolve their petty differences before the vote for Speaker

Just like has been done for 200 years
