As long as McCarthy isn’t Speaker, I don’t care how long it takes.

No worries for you. Hakeem Jeffries (D) currently has the most votes.

Being a retiree living on S.S., the talk about a national sales tax to replace income tax rather scares me. Seems to give a break to income tax payers at the expense of the low income folks living on S.S. I don’t know exactly how that would work out, but you & I both know the feds will not accept any less than they are confiscating now. The other concern would be if there would be any exemptions allowed as the lower income folks would be paying a LOT more sales tax. What would sales tax rate have to be to make this work? Would groceries be exempt(as I think they are in most states anyway)??? I’d need to know a lot more about this proposal as I know many who live on S.S. are hardly making it now. Any more load on their backs would be unbearable.

Your moronic comment does not represent an intelligent conservative.

Once again, you prove yourself unable to carry an intelligent discussion.

Sorry your race horse McCarthy lost the 1st vote.
History was made.
Has been 100 years since a Speaker was not elected on first vote.
Now the fun begins.

Personally I like having how the sausage(politics) being made shown to the public.

It's a dirty business and people need to know that, and I'm happy to see conservatives, make their "Stand".
