you don't care for Matt Gaetz. Got it. Heard that he and McCarthy really got into it today. i remember when Gaetz was about to get accosted in the House.
i forget the name of the Rep that went after him but that hardly matters. It looked like the guy was ready to beat the crap out of Gaetz. I know Mark Levin isn't too crazy about Gaetz either-an understatement.
i don't care how you feel about Gaetz. He's not running for Speaker. Jordan is. i certainly don't care about any petty revenge trips from ppl in the House.
This is the 1st time i've ever seen a Speaker be forced to vacate. Did you feel like it finally empowered us where we had some say in who represented us? Whatever fault you might find in Gaetz that's not one of them.
I don't regret that he did it and i'm not going to blame him if it falls through today. It's the 22 Republicans we were hoping would come around and get this done for us.They're totally responsible for the mess they've created. It's not a good look.
I do care that Jordan was a team player and voted for McCarthy. i do care that Jordan has never caused waves against any of his fellow colleauges.
i do care that he was one of the founders of the conservative Freedom Caucus.He's a darned good guy and unless he proves otherwise he'd make a terrific speaker.
i had a reddit site up for him a couple-three years ago supporting him for the speakership. It didn't just dawn on me. I've given it a lot of thought for some time.
He's MAGA. i suppose that's a problem for some of the Republicans. That's his choice. Most of us ARE MAGA. i guess the weak kneed Republicans are afraid of Joe Biden and his crusade against MAGA Republicans.
Jim has guts. He stands up for what he believes in. i 've never gotten the impression he has a hard time getting along with his colleagues even if they're not on the same page. He's there to do his job and never had any driving ambitions for higher office. Kind of rare in D.C.
The people are behind Jim 100%. If you think you're fixing Gaetz because you're holding out against Jim you're badly mistaken.
You're fixing us.We're tired of getting the shaft from you people.+The main reason we support Jim for Speaker is right there. He knows what he's there for-why he was elected. It's why any of you are are elected.
He listens to us. it's pretty obvious from the hold outs that they don't. They think we're intimidating them. You mean to say we think you're supposed to be there to represent us.Yeah, that's exactly why you're there & we pay your salary.
Jim has a great motto that these ppl could learn,#DoWhatWeSaid.
The 3rd vote will be at 10 today. If these 22 candidates still insist on keeping Jim out he can go back to his judiciary committee and they can vote for whoever they want.We'll be primairing them soon enough. We'll make sure they don't hold office again.
The Republican party will be on the trash heap. We start the new party as soon as Trump is in the White House.
We'll live. They'll win in the short term and we'll clean house in the end. Sorry to say he may not make it on the 3rd vote either.
It was a ridiculous idea to put in a short term Speaker. There's too much going on to do something that stupid.
If the Dems were in a majority and could pick a Speaker they'd have been done days ago. Every Democrat would vote for their nominee. They get it. Our reps get involved in their petty squabbles.
The Dems have an agenda and don't let anything stand in their way let alone a simple vote like Speaker.They unify and get things done. Rarely do they come to the Republicans for votes.
They don't usually have to. Bongino is right: some Republicans are Democrats. No Democrats are Republicans. When our candidates cave we lose every time. You go on the campaign trail and you stick to our principles you win-most of the time anyway.
You get squishy the Democrat wins. It's simple. If you're going to act like a Democrat ppl may as well vote Democrat. The base gives up and stays home.
If we don't get Jordan watch them vote for a squishy Republican or go to the Dems and get their votes and get a squishy Speaker anyway.
The Dems will want concessions for their votes. We could win if they'd just vote Jordan. The Republicans always cause their own losses. This time is the last straw. The Republicans abandon us this time we're out the door. We've had enough.
McCarthy was vacated. Now move on and give the folks their choice. This would be a great way to start. i don't know why but i have the feeling it's not going to happen.
We can hope and Jim was making the rounds last night.
Biden is having a field day while we dither around.
Keep up the phone calls. Time is short. We have a couple hours left. We've done all we can do.
I'm ambivalent at this point. You have to give it to the Dems for their willingness to do what they have to do.
The Republicans don't care about their base. It's all about them.
I'm sorry Mark Levin feels the animosity he does at Gaetz. I respect Mr Levin; i don't always agree with him. His support for Ukraine and DeSantis drive me nuts.. He's not going to change my mind.
Zelensky is a grifter and DeSantis is a backstabber. i'm anxious to see him drop out. He should. ALL the candidates should and endorse Trump. We need to get on and let Trump go after Biden.
Meantime let's tcob and get Jordan in the Speakership if we can.
Get those calls in for Jim! We'll do what we can!
