*****MAGA in disarray, who will be speaker of the House***** McCarthy REMOVED! Jim Jordan 0-3. Election denier Mike Johnson confirmed. Vote them out

Wrong. The clean CR McCarthy put forward had broad Dem support.

The House voted on an overwhelming, bipartisan basis, 335-91, for a short-term funding bill, known as a continuing resolution or CR; 209 Democrats and 126 Republicans voted yes, while 90 Republicans voted no. Just one Democrat, Rep. Mike Quigley of Illinois, voted no over a lack of Ukraine aid.

That was voting for a bill you moron. Not for him to be Speaker. JFC

They won’t.

The Gaetz crew might be on board with him.

Vast Majority of R’s would have gladly taken a couple D votes to keep McCarthy.

Now? They’ll want the NEW speaker to be all R votes. Which means someone palatable to the Gaetz crew…

Maybe get the one idiot rule tossed as well.
Are Democrats nominating Jordan? Are the Republicans required to nominate Jordan? Now is the Republicans chance to nominate someone that will take the job seriously. It's on them to do so and if they do they will get Democrats to vote with them.

I hope you don't use this "it's everyone else's fault" knee jerk reaction when your kids f*ck up.
 
That…and 208 D’s voting with Matt “ Putin stooge” Gaetz.

Congrats
I notice you dodged the point previously that the Democrats voted against McCarthy every time. What did he do as Speaker to earn their votes?

You've become another far right winger who expects the Democrats to clean up and fix the messes the republicans create. And when they don't, you place the blame on them. It's classic republicanism these days - set the fire, fan the flames and then blame the other side for the damage.
 
You didn’t answer the question in my post.

Other than owning the R’s, what was the W for the country here? How is the current situation better than before he was tossed?
Your question is based on a false premise. The Republicans brought McCarthy down. McCarthy brought McCarthy down. He lied and broke deals with the Dems an his own party. He made untenable deals in order to become Speaker and his whole plan was based on day to day deal making.
Not the Dems fault.
 
Go team red

How can someone ignore the entire context of what actually happened so thoroughly? It's mind blowing.

BSB is trolling Bigly. He’s had around a dozen people replying to his nonsense for pages. NCH5 is no doubt talking notes and Trad is reminiscing about the old days when he could do the same.

The difference is he once was a reasonable poster. If he's trolling it's an indicator that he doesn't have much of a life. I think he is a rube who has fallen for the propaganda that he says he doesn't consume but often posts.
 
I don't think Bins is a real troll. I just think he's a conservative leaning poster that has realized that the current Republican leadership is childish and expects the Democrats to keep the government running. The problem is if the Democrats don't take a stand against the MAGA crazies the sane Republicans will continue to stand on the sidelines so they don't upset the MAGAS and lose their votes.
 
Democrats aren’t nominating Gym Jordan, Republicans are. Who’s the problem?
Point is McCarthy is probably better than the replacement will be...

Put forward a clean CR that got over 200 D votes to keep the government open.

Next R speaker will probably be able to get a "loaded" CR through his own caucus....unlike McCarthy. We'll see...

McCarthy was in a very weak position with his own caucus...D's could have used that as leverage over him.

I have serious doubts that'll be the case with the next R speaker....but we'll see.

In bins world, it will be the Ds even though none of them would vote for Gym.

Team red doesn’t accept any responsibility for anything. Bins is team red all the way
Actually I'm team USA.

It's not a good situation to have no speaker in the house at the moment. Israel situation/Ukraine aid and another CR coming up....

208 D's voted with Gaetz to make that happen.

Now the dysfunctional R's will spend a couple weeks coming up with a new speaker.

Great.

Congrats on the W for team blue.
