Amash is not an authority on leadership.

I don’t see it as an endorsement at all. He’s announcing, at a time when McCarthy is being challenged, that McCarthy is a bad guy, in Amash’s experience. He provided sine string opinions which could easily align with the reasons for Matt Gaetz filing a Motion to Vacate.

Amash was one of those hacks in Congress who made a name for himself by casting useless “principled conservative” votes against bills that ended up passing in the House by 420-5 margins.

There’s no reason to pay any attention to what a loser like this thinks about the GOP leadership.

Support McCarthy? After he lied and has NOT fulfilled his promises made
to his GOP Conference when he was first elected Speaker in a 15 vote Marathon
to confirm him as Speaker. Promises to get back to regular order instead of
CR’s and Omnibus bills. And other Conference related promises.
He had plenty of time to get back to regular order. But he didn’t.

“ Amash is a troublemaker and his dislike for McCarthy should be the signal to SUPPORT McCarthy.”

McCarthy promised us:

That he’d release J6 video. Where is it?
No more CRs. He just signed off on another CR.
No more omnibus bills. One Department at a time, he said. Didn’t happen.

McCarthy either lied to us or he has failed. Neither should be rewarded.

I think you are missing my point. I don’t care what he thinks. Merely commenting that his comments are opportune.

BE REALISTIC. YOU HAVE NO ONE TO REPLACE HIM

When is the Right Time for McCarthy to keep his promises to HIS OWN
GOP Conference?
Don’t worry Karen, you will still get your social security or disability check
If the Government shuts down.

Most all of the MSM media is against Gaetz. Fox is crazy against Gaetz. Most RINOs are against Gaetz. Squishy Freepers are against Gaetz. Therefore, I am with Gaetz.

-——————————————————————————————Explain to me how assuming I receive a ss check or disability check is NOT AN INSULT??? You think I’m an old Seasoned Citizen.

You assume I’m old and stupid.
Or you assume I am somehow disabled. Because I’m too stupid to be healthy???

With this post I am leaving FR. You will be happy to note.

And I admit I liked Kevin McCarthy. He had a professional presence and I used to think Gaetz had some merit.

Right now, with the thought of all the investigations of Judiciary, Oversight and Ways and Means Committees come to a screeching HALT.

ANd that bothers me.

THANKS TO THE GREAT MATT GAETZ...who has no stomach nor vitality, nor intelligence to offer to become SOH.

What a great guy/ spit.

LOL. 200 Republicans voted to keep Business as usual.
Never ending CR’s and Omnibus Bills. No Budgets. No Limits
on Debt Ceiling., etc etc.
Get a grip Karen, you are becoming emotional again.
Sorry about your crush going down in flames.
