So trying to make changes and elect a better speaker is the same as the crap never changing?

Can anyone blame an average voter who's not chronically plugged into conservative social media for thinking the Republican Party is full of a bunch of self-serving grifters that are chronically online and whose main constituency is election bro Twitter?

that’s not all they’re asking for but it is something McCarthy refuses.

The time to do that was before the vote.

And all this crowd is doing is making McCarthy look better by comparison

I'll change my statement if a non-RINO is elected speaker. If McCarthy ends up winning, then it's the same old kabuki.

Listen to Bob Good (VA), told us there would be 10-15 votes against mcC, and that someone heretofore will show up and eventually win.

McCarthy is going to win. It may take more voting - but in the end he will win. end of story. You know it, I know it. This is nothing but delaying the inevitable.

They said that before November, too.

It did not redound to our benefit.
