When their affair was discovered, she lost her job and he got promoted...
In the words of Achilles, “are there no others”
This old man
He plays six
He plays knick knack on my sticks
With a knick knack paddy wack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home.
That’s because this system is specifically designed to create accountability for the voters. They want you to be able to tell how your representative voted so that you can decide if you still want them representing you. Free elections are designed to not have voter accountability, so nobody can take revenge on you for how you voted. Congress are supposed to be elected by free elections but are not supposed to HAVE free elections.
Given that 20 people are opposed to McCarthy, his motion to vacate proposal should work out just fine. With 20 people currently opposed to him, it would be easy enough to get 5 to move to vacate if he decides to be his usual wussy self. All he needs to do is to change his mind on border enforcement, and I would start casting my ballot for him. JMO.
McCarthy
Aughtta’
Go
Away
exactly — my delight in this matter is unfortunately rooted in cynicism.
Trump is not a god,his choices are not obligatory to others.
And I find McCarthy as bad a choice as McConnell.
ISWYDT!...................
Do they ever have a private meeting together, of the GOP caucus, and talk things over?
What about a compromise candidate, such as Steve Scalise or Jim Jordan? I know Jordan says he doesn’t want the job, but in a meeting of the minds, perhaps he would be agreeable? Or Scalise or someone else not on the radar right now?
It would be good to see, that the caucus emerge united and knowing the results of the next vote. This business of ballot after ballot with no resolution accomplishes nothing.
After the 1st and 2nd ballot, it becomes absurd after a while, to keep voting, when everyone knows there will be no finality.
Perhaps what can happen, to shake things up, would be for McCarthy to withdraw, and urge his supporters to support another, such as Jim Jordan.
Renee is old news and is hopefully going forward in life.
If there were someone else who is new news that might be something for the Republicans to deal with, but one would never go there oneself, if one had heard of such a thing. That wouldn’t be nice.
Well, some people already have hats.
Yes, the last ‘meeting’ they had was last week and sparks flew if reports are to be believed.............
No, he won’t.
He thinks it’s his right.
Another reason to question whether I will be supporting Trump in 2024.
vote #5 going down gain McCarthy does not get enough votes.
what do they call it when doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result... CRAZY AS HELL.
Mike Gallagher, R-Wisc., nominated McCarthy for the fourth vote on Wednesday, saying he was the best choice to lead the party as the House convened for a fourth vote to settle the chamber’s leadership.
“I believe that in my bones, nobody has done more to lay out a plan for how we restore the basic functioning of this institution than Kevin McCarthy,” he said.
McCarthy: time to withdraw from the race. You’re clearly not representative of a majority of the House, and it is clear that 20 Republicans understand that you’re not a leader for the present circumstances. Maybe you would have made a fine Speaker in the 1960s, but not now.
And all Americans.
I, for one, am sick and tired of the GOPee screwing over the MAGA base.
So what did it mean when trump endorsed McCarthy?
Nice idea but before that can happen someone(s) has gotta go to Kevin and tell him it’s over, period.
Then go forward with new blood. Not Scalise, not Jordan, for different reasons.
