Breitbart ^ | 12/04/2022 | Pam Key

Representative James Clyburn. (D-SC) said on this week’s broadcast on MSNBC’s “The Sunday Show” Republican leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy should make a deal with Democrats to get enough votes to become Speaker of the House.

Host Jonathan Capehart said, “Let’s talk about the disunity on the other side of the aisle. Current house minority leader, Kevin McCarthy, he is working hard to scare off the 218 votes he’s going to need on January 3, when they have the vote for the new House speaker. Do you think he’ll be successful in his quest for the speaker’s gavel?”

When will we understand that the Federal Government became a wholly owned subsidiary after FDR’s hostile takeover?

Anything to do with Clyburn, a sneaky traitorous slimewad, would permanently taint a candidate for Speaker.

If McCarthy does that, he will officially be their
purchased property, to abuse, toy with and ignore at will.
I thought he was already considering that anyway.
Clyburn simply blurted the unspoken thought out loud.

Democrats...Sure we’ll loan you the votes, and don’t
worry about the vig...

Only a fool borrows money from the mob.

This is the exact test (trap) Gaetz has laid for McCarthy, to force him to show his true colors.

Will he form a coalition with Gaetz, or with Jeffries?

The fact the question even has to be asked is why Gaetz isn’t rubber stamping him at this point.

Guess what, he probably already made a deal 3 weeks ago.

Why? If the GOP doesn’t deliver him the votes, as a lot of people around here seem to want, then McCarthy will have to make a deal with the Dems. There is no other way around it.

I wouldn’t take any advice from Clyburn. He’s a lying piggie.

Sure there is.

Four Republicans vote for Jeffries.

That is MUCH more likely than 188 McCarthy supporters switch to Matt Gaetz!

McCarthy just can’t make a deal with the conservative caucus?

McCarthy is already beholden to the RATS.

The sad thing is that there are those who would rather see this than someone who, in their opinion, is not a perfect conservative become speaker. Speaker Jeffries? Is that what you are willing to accept?

If the Freedom Caucus holds firm, I don’t see how McCarthy gets across the finish line without some D votes.

“Speaker Jeffries? Is that what you are willing to accept?”

Who, me?

I think carrying on this “rebellion” with the idea that some crackpot is going to somehow become Speaker is retarded.

IF the GOP retard caucus keeps this up (and only if), THEN 4 RINOs are going to break and vote for a Democrat.

No, that’s not what I want. I want the GOP to be destroyed so we can get on with the next stage of whatever this is we are doing now.
