The Catturd account on Truth Social is totally behind the 20 GOP US Representatives who will not vote for Kevin McCarthy for Speaker.

Crenshaw is a card carrying RINO. So you’re A fellow traveler I guess. 😉

HamiltonJay sums it up nicely.

There hasn’t been a speaker for 2 or 3 days now. The world hasn’t stopped rotating on its axis

I haven’t read or heard anything about McCarthy talking to anyone about anything. Just soaking up the adoration and support of 202 clowns that are there to go along, to get along and make money.

If this thing has shown one thing, aside from all the noise, it is that these folks think they should be ANOINTED. All they have to do is put in the time, kiss the right a$$es and when the time comes they will have earned their chance.

Nary a one of them gives one flying f**k what any of us thinks.

He’s supposed to get it not because of the things he’s accomplished or the stands he’s taken, but because of who he’s served. And in this case McCarthy has served the UNIPARTY, Ryan, Boehner, WEF, Wall St, Globalists.

This whole thing is showing that 202 folks haven’t attempted to reach out to any of the people that voted for them. The voters are supposed to just STFU and dutifully vote for the same old sh*t every 2, 4, or 6 years. Bitch and moan how there are no fighters and things never change.

Now there are 20 doing a little bit of fighting and folks are mad.

Love him or hate him, Gaetz stated, McCarthy is the biggest gator in the Swamp. That should tell folks something.

Quick poll: how many posting on this forum would be willing to admit they agree with Crenshaw's sentiment?

I'd guess everyone of the neocon Ukrainian war cheerleaders do.

“After whirlwind negotiations late Wednesday, McCarthy reportedly agreed to assign more members of the Freedom Caucus, which has been at the forefront of efforts to thwart his efforts to become speaker, to House committees — including the Rules Committee, which has great sway over which legislation gets to the floor for a vote.

Other concessions involve allowing votes on term limits and border security legislation, according to the reports.

The Post reported Wednesday evening that a super PAC aligned with McCarthy — the Congressional Leadership Fund — reached an agreement with the conservative nonprofit Club for Growth on primary candidate funding, resolving another sticking point in the dispute.”

Link below. Looks like McCarthy has agreed to many of the demands, meaning he has given more than an inch.

I don’t think it matters. I think if McCarthy agreed in writing to every single demand from the holdouts, they would just create an unending stream of new demands.

Yeah, HamiltonJay did sum it up well. I’ll add one other thing (looking at Crenshaw): just because you served in the military does not make you immune from scrutiny or give you a free pass to hurl baseless accusations. John McCain rode that horse into the ground. Or put another way—Benedict Arnold was an American hero...until he wasn’t.

Come on, nut up and come out of the closet.

Some of his sentiments are understandable if there are truly members who are not negotiating on policy and procedure but for their own personal gain. But calling them “enemies” is a jump the eye patch moment.

That would be something to behold.

But I’d a million if I could that whatever he tore up, would not be his copy of the SOTU speech. He’d show them that it was scrap paper that one of his grandkids doodled on.

He laugh and hand over his copy and give some quip….” I’m not classless and I follow the law. I have respect for this institution unlike others.”

For the present, nothing will get done in either House.

I think McCarthy should be Speaker. Donald Trump agrees with me.

Gaetz wouldn't cross the street to spit on you if you were on fire. Neither would Crenshaw. Neither would McCarthy.

But this has turned into a circus and it's going to hurt our cause for many years to come. But at least Gaetz keeps getting on TV! Fools.
