House Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) had been planning to call up on the House floor last week a measure from Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) that would have removed him as Speaker of the House if it succeededintending to embarrass Meadowsbut abandoned the plan after his entire leadership structure learned that they did not have the votes to re-elect him as Speaker before the August recess.

Steve Scalise (R-LA), a senior conservative movement leader whos had many personal and direct discussions with various House GOP members about this told Breitbart News in an interview last week.

Bohner is an empty suit.
he is less than empty, he is negative suited
“he was whipping it”
Oh I’ll bet.
Must be because Trump is cleaning the GOPe clock in the media. So tired of worthless people like Boner telling me they have done everything they can to stop ODumbass. Then have Trump who is not in government do more in a election cycle.
Try taking votes for stoning the drunken POS.
They’ll find gazillions of ‘em.
Embarrassed? Not to fret there johnny boy. You have plenty of folks out here that are also embarrassed by you. Here’s a tissue.
Dump Bonehead!
Nah we gotta unite behind him no matter what! Isn’t that what all the lesser evils demanded? So you are saying that was a really idiotic thing to do?
Progress!
From the article. That is news to me as I never knew a "privileged resolution" existed. If that is the case, everyone should encourage Meadows to do just that if he knows for certain he has the votes to remove Bonehead "orange man" Boehner.
...he can't help his hero Obama out better.
Oh he is much worse than that. Much, much worse.
Never trust a man with a french manicure.
Anybody not believe the Rats would not vote yes just to keep such a gutless wonder as the “opposition” leader?
Windows 10 Cortana would be a better Speaker.
I would submit that any Republican who votes to save Boehner should be ousted in the primaries. Maybe if they feared that, they’d finally undo some of the damage they did by electing him as Speaker.
That’s just silly.
In order for that to happen a republican would need to have a spine.
That’s not a man. That’s just pathetic.
