[Psalm 73]

"He ...lives with the homosexual in his apartment in Washington DC."

Maybe Frank Luntz told him not to come home until he's Speaker....

[Navy Patriot]

Agree.

I would prefer a House where Representatives REPRESENT the interests of their American Voters in their District, and The House governs as lightly as possible in keeping with their Constitutional Directives.

[Trump20162020]

Dog and pony show. His “dissenters” are going to acquiesce after some more mild concessions soon, and everyone knows it.

[escapefromboston]

Good

[M. Thatcher]

The Disintegration of the Non Representative House taking the Representatives with it.

The GOPe "strategy" of continuing to throw a Speaker nominee at the House who they knew from the get-go doesn't have the votes to win is playing out the only way it could.

McLeadership McFail.

And he cheated on his wife by having an affair with Congresswoman Renee Elmers, a Trump supporter, and destroyed her career.

[Navy Patriot]

It’s some kind of theater, not chaos.

Agree, and it's not working.

[M. Thatcher]

His “dissenters” are going to acquiesce after some more mild concessions soon, and everyone knows it.

If "everyone knows it," the establishment types wouldn't be having a collective cow and melting down on national TV.

Why is the Republicrat Uniparty pushing globalist WEF crony McCarthy for Speaker, when it should be obvious to anyone with a triple digit IQ, he is not going to get elected?

[traderrob6]

That’s it.

[The_Media_never_lie]

McCarthy simply does not have a record to indicate he is trust worthy.

[Navy Patriot]

It’s a procedural process. The opposite of chaos.

Agree.

Apparently Paladin2 does also.

[Navy Patriot]

... representatives truly representing the best interest of the US holding firm!

Appears so.

[cuz1961]

So democracy is now

Chaos ?

Spit.

Wonder what the narrative focus word/term from the inteligency agency will put in tomorrow’s cubicle memo.

[pepsi_junkie]

Media: Elections where voting machines malfunction and there is no chain of custody on the ballots counted - Normal and healthy.

Also Media: A group is voting in orderly repeated rounds until a candidate wins a majority as the process specifies and has been done many times in the past - CHAOS!!!

[Navy Patriot]

Agree.

[ArcadeQuarters]

He had months to make a deal. Instead he moved into the speakers office and waited out the time to be anointed.

[bimboeruption]

I’ve been watching the vote on C-Span and the talking head just reported that a reporter, sorry, I didn’t catch the name, asked Kev when the voting process would be over. He replied, “When I win.”

[1Old Pro]

At least he will have a good story to tell his grandchildren

So did Scott Norwood and Jean Van De Velde, an Bill Buckner
