Still a few days before the 31st although this war will change DNC plans.

I’m curious to see if his poll numbers rise or fall. More Democrat voters are pro Palestinian then I thought.

Where are you from? The Democrats Party routinely accuses and or digs up still on Republicans. That is how Obama became Senator representing Illinois and a few years later POTUS.

You supported the eight Republicans who voted with 100% of House Democrats to oust McCarthy.

Was McCarthy doing what he promised?

Where are you from.

Gaetz aligned with 210 Democrats to remove a duly elected Republican speaker who won back the house majority within 2 election cycles.

Why are you defending this nutcase.

“Further, you saying he’s “one of eight Republicans who voted with 100% of the House Democrats to oust McCarthy” is pure Assistant Democrat (Satanic) word twisting propaganda.”

For your education:

“Here are the 8 Republicans who voted to oust McCarthy as House speaker
By Piper Hudspeth Blackburn, CNN”

“The vote in the House of Representatives on the motion to vacate was 216-210, with Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz leading the effort.”

https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/03/politics/republicans-vote-remove-mccarthy-house-speaker/index.html

You’ll notice that 210 Republicans didn’t vote with all the Democrats present that day

W”as McCarthy doing what he promised?”

210 Republicans believed he was. Eight Republicans and all the Democrats didn’t believe he was.

Half the people on this forum are getting weak kneed over a standoff for the House speakership. Imagine what their reaction would have been when the colonies declared independence. How far we’ve fallen.

194 who voted for Jordon indicate otherwise. I know I didn't like what McCarthy did. Giving in to raising the Debt Ceiling through January 025 without getting anything in return angered me. Glad you were OKAY with that.

“Jordon [sic] needs to read the room and stop this stupid crap.”

##################

Project much?

Why does he need to “read the room”??? The “room” is half filled with Democrats who want to destroy this country just as quickly as possible. And then there’s another big bloc of Assistant Democrats who want to destroy it as well.

He needs to read the heart of our Savior and Lord, and do His will. And I believe he is doing that.

Gaetz did none of the legwork to make it even possible to get Jordan in. Before he opened his mouth, he should have gotten broad GOP support.

I’m sorry, but his grandstanding is going to end up getting a leftist Dem, Hakeem Jeffries, as Speaker of the House and third in line to the presidency.
