“I’d be happy with Johnson. A good compromise.”

I could get behind Elise Stefanik, Jordan, Donalds...

That said, the GOP needs a serious enema!

From another message board:

[Johnson has an ACU rating of 91. Scalise is 82. Emmer is just 73. Jordan was 100.

Question now is simple: Will the RINOs finally concede that they are not going to get one of theirs in this time?

Probably not. Look for tools like Buck and Bacon to continue to oppose anyone to the right of either of them (Bacon ACU score is 53, FYI)]

“voted against the certification of the 2020 election results, which he viewed as fraudulent.”

That’s about all I need to know. It looks like the “chaos” of the last few days may have ended well after all.

Hakeem Jeffries was never elected as “head of the senate” as you say.
He is not a member of the Senate.
Try to keep up.

“I’m guessing they found a squish”

Doesn’t sound like he’s much of a squish.

Same here! Now watch the media label him an election denier.

I’d be happy with Johnson. A good compromise.

A step, literally, in the right direction.

Mike Johnson looks solid. But if he ends up winning tomorrow, I have to wonder why he was acceptable to the RINOs and Jim Jordan wasn’t. But, on paper, he looks good. I’m interested in seeing what Gaetz and company have to say about him.

He believes 2020 was stolen by Bidet. That’s a point in his favor.

“There’s that word!

A word only the repubs seem to know .. Compromise!🥱”

___________________________________

That’s a bit true, which is why Republicans must compromise amongst themselves. Both ends of the ideological spectrum need to move if we’re going to select a Speaker.

Democrats all voted for their Marxist Jeffries, even when lying RINO McCarthy was elected. They’re not budging.

Republicans must compromise amongst themselves.
____________________________

The Republican party will never compromise among themselves, it’s just not possible.

The Republicans have amongst themselves a bunch of democrats .. RINOs that use the “Go along to get along” meme as an excuse to vote with their true party.

Remember John McCain?
Great at “reaching!”

Same with McConnell!

We could have had Byron Donalds but he is a 100% republican conservative.

These b@$$-turds want Nothing to do with a True Conservative!

Like nazis and democrat’s...(repeating myself), hiding away, behind closed doors, scheming and making deals .. Who the hell do these people work for??

Donalds got a whole 29 votes!!

They can make any excuse they want to ..
“Not enough experience”
(Trump didn’t have any either and look how that turned out!)

“He has a past criminal record”
(Betcha a dollar if we looked, a majority of these “Sainted” @$$-holes are dirty in someway!)

Nope, there will never be Compromise unless we get into the weeds and cut the heads off the snakes!
(dirt bags)

RANT OFF/

Bob Livingston was speaker designee for 15 minutes or so before he had to withdraw. He is related to the Livingston family of New York who produced one of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence, Philip Livingston, but I don't know if he is directly descended from Philip. There was a Livingston from New Jersey who signed the US Constitution who may have been related.

Hopefully Mike Johnson is not kin to LBJ.
