“Is he worthy?”

Probably...either of them is fine by me, just glad to have that bitch out of there.

wrong gender

McCarthy and Scalise are both male, so “that demographic is already filled”

that’s how politics works today, like it or not

Freepers have mentioned Stafanik’s liberal leaning voting record.

Go Chip

He's probably far better than Stefanik, but he's delusional.

There are four GOP leadership positions in the House: Minority Leader, Republican Whip, Republican Conference Chair, and Republican Policy Committee Chair.

There's no way in hell the GOP will ever have all four of these filled with white men.

Probably doesn’t stand a chance, he is not on board with the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) and that is a prerequisite for admittance to leadership in the GOP.

"that’s how politics works today, like it or not"

Quotas must be followed, even if the person isn't particularly qualified.

Voted twice against Trump impeachment and voted against pretty much everything anti-Trump.

Thanks for that link. From the article:
“Rep. Chip Roy says Trump’s conduct was impeachable, but opposes the article

Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, said on the House floor that Trump’s conduct in pressuring the vice president to overturn the election impeachable, but that he opposes the article of impeachment.

“The president of the United States deserves universal condemnation for what was clearly, in my opinion, impeachable conduct, pressuring the vice president to violate his oath to the Constitution,” Roy said.”

Sounds like a classic Deception to me. Maybe the deep state is pushing this guy secretly.

Chip is good people. He’d be great. I am very comfortable with Stefanik.

She is not my ideological clone but she is consistently on my team on the big debates. She’s promoting the advancement and growth of my party. Team player vs the wacko troll from Wyoming.

From what she recently said, the job would only be a short-term position.

I doubt she would put up much of a fight for a job she really isn’t excited to take.

Sorry, but nope. Roy isn't MAGA and seems to agree with Cheney and her big lie about Trump.
