A hilarious comment to a hilarious flub, perking up my rather poor day!

I lasted until 2020 when the election was stolen from Trump. That’s when I de-Republicanized myself.

The Republican and Democrat parties are two sides of the same counterfeit coin.

Not illegal just not respectful, measured, well-mannered, etc.

Perhaps this will motivate those who do not want to be Republicans to go start their own party.

Of course, with that comes the loss of money they all cherish.

A real leader would call these “rebels” in and explain how to money flows. And then primary those who don’t play.

That’s how political parties are supposed to work. I am not sure why the leadership are such pussies.

He was wounded in action, yet despite that awful act, he didn’t learn -— he’s still a RINO.

Yes...if the pubs get a larger majority after 2024...they can go for more scorched earth. But, frankly, I like Jordan in Judiciary committee. If Scalise is tougher than McCarthy...it’s better. I hope he is not a squish. If so, he gotta’ go.
But they haven’t done the real whole house election.
How did Pelosi get in?

Sorry but if you think anything about this situation by anyone involved was brave or sticking it to the “man”.. you are foolish.

Clowns the entire lot… you are free to pretend otherwise, but much like Bruce putting on a dress and wishing to be called Rachel, I am not going along with his or your self delusions

Wow, just looking to be offended

Number of GOP members of house 221.

8 out of 221 is a little group.

If my desire was to be pejorative toward them, believe me, I would have used far more colorful language.

Wish to look to find offense in all that happens, you probably would be more at home over ad Democrat Underground or at Oberlin College.

The Incredible Shrinking “Freedom Caucus” just can’t stop losing.

I agree. The chasm between MAGA and establishment Republicans is widening by the day. Best to divorce before it gets too acrimonious.

Trump endorsed Jordan. Scalise’s win doesn’t bode well for Trump’s control of the GOP even if he wins in 2024.

"Sticking it to the man"?

"Bruce putting on a dress and wishing to be called Rachel,"?

Your response is retarded.

McCarthy lied, he broke promises and he broke an agreement".

McCarthy has now paid the price for his bad behavior.

A simple example to the next speaker of what could happen when you don't do what you promise.

Very simple really.

And there was no down side.

We have no idea how many Republicans really wanted McCarthy gone. McCarthy held the ultimate power position in the caucus as the speaker. Obviously, the fear of retribution from McCarthy was a factor in the vote.

That’s why many of us were drawn to Trump.

Of course, due to his being a newbie, he had to take advice from Republicans, and that didn’t help him at all.
