Is there even ANYONE among the Republicans in Congress who might be trusted with the gavel at this point? Isn’t there a point at which they realize that a warm body who can move things along is what they really need?
What the actual eff is going on?
McHenry was their best option but they wanted to neuter him so he said no thanks. It's gonna be months before they hire a speaker. It's gonna take a near mutiny in the party before the make a move. The party is being held hostage by the party. Bozo would be proud.
Well that didn’t last long. Emmer already dropped out. I’m sure he’s already received too many death threats for his liking. When it comes to the speakership, the fascist message is loud and clear: Non riggers need not apply!

Its sad these clowns created this crisis and the last thing they deserve is having a Speaker of their choosing....
It seems like they can’t get 217 for someone Trump likes (Jim Jordan) and they can’t get 217 for someone Trump doesn’t like (Tom Emmer). So where does that leave them?
Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-Fla.) dismissed his colleagues’ criticism that Rep. Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) is not conservative enough, saying that was “absurd.”
“He’s a super conservative member,” Diaz-Balart said. “And if that was the case for them, how come he got the votes from this conference just nine months ago to be the whip? A little consistency, frankly, would be helpful these days.”
Hopefully the next speaker is not one of the GOP's many extremists.
Extremists? Is an "extremist" one who would be loyal to their oath of office, and reject legislation which does not advance the general welfare of the United States and her citizens? What exactly is an "extremist"? What are the characteristics of an "extremist"?
