It’s a shame McCarthy has no honor: He is putting himself ahead of his party and the country.
An honorable man would call his caucus together and say, “It is obvious I do not have the support necessary to become Speaker. Therefore, I withdraw my name from consideration. Let us coalesce around a candidate that is acceptable to the body. That choice will have my full support.”
Unfortunately, he is not an honorable man.
Oh but the grifters like Gaetz who are using their votes as leverage to get prime positions in Congress are so honorable! Haha!
Well, if an "honorable man" is what I was searching for, the U.S. House of Representatives would be just about the last place I'd look.
People who think that their "elected representatives," of any stripe, are going to save them are fools, plain and simple. Vote harder, dummies.
