*****MAGA in disarray, who will be speaker of the House***** McCarthy REMOVED! Jim Jordan 0-3. Election denier Mike Johnson confirmed. Vote them out
- Thread starter Chishawk1425
- Start date
These people can't even negotiate a way to vote for a Speaker and they want to lead the House in governing? Let the Shitshow Begin!!!
Why would they? The audacity for Republicans to even ask them for a favor after the way they have acted for the last 15 years is outrageous. They literally tried to stage a coup, many of whom were just sworn into this Congress, and they want favors from Democrats? Yeah, good luck.
Democrats are just going to sit back and let the 2024 campaign commercials write themselves. Not that it will matter in the districts these idiots come from.
The Speaker has too much power and there's ZERO CHANCE McCarthy would honor any agreement with the Dems. Kev doesn't deserve the job after kneeling and kissing Trump's ring after 1/6. Fvck him.

The GOP dysfunction is wildly entertaining. Normally I’d be peeved that such fumbling about means Congress isn’t doing their jobs, but with a GOP majority this delay can, and should, be viewed as damage control.
YES! Then we can bring Steve Ferentz in as OC to fix things
The obvious solution is for a handful of Rs to vote for Jeffries.
I want to clarify my comment. I really wish that he was nominated the first round. After the 20
idiots are voting on a guy who openly
Says he doesn’t want the position in Jim Jordan (who has voted for McCarthy), I want these idiots to keep showing how epically dumb they are by continuing to vote against him.
God I hate Geatz and that crazy lady from Georgia

Well if the war is over, why isn’t Trump’s pick for Speaker being installed?
There's no coalescing ideology. They stand for nothing. They're all out for themselves. Trump set the standard for selfish, unprincipled, political motivation. It's a disease on the Republican party.
It's surprising to me McCarthy got as many votes as he did.

That’s why I don’t think the civil war is over. Rather, it’s just getting started.

Ideology crawled away and died when they railroaded Liz Cheney - the last of the principled conservatives - out of the party.
It’s now a party of only petty grifters and reality show want-of-bees now.
I guess I don't know exactly who the waring parties are in the Republican civil war. It seems to me that it's over and the republicans lost.
I don't think it's a matter of winning the war at this point; the infighting is largely over. I think it's a matter of seeing what arises from the ashes of the Republican party.
Edit to add: I'd be perfectly fine with being wrong on this.
Where are the proposals to accomplish those ideals? Truth is, they don't even have that.
What is McCarthy selling to tonight to salvage his Speakership? If I were a Republican...I would either have a hangman's noose ready or something more effective.
He will announce his withdrawal in the morning or call for another vote, which will be based on mountains of corruption.

McCarthy is probably done for. Rs don't like him. And the fact that he had two months to prep for this means he's probably a lousy leader.
1980s Max Headroom has come to life and is commenting on the speaker vote
If only he cared this much about another guy who occupied the Speaker’s office:
The Dems don’t want anything to do with this shit show right now. It just gives the GOP someone to blame.
