I’m not totally opposed to either one.
I like him over Jordon
Over 20 years ago, he was criminally stupid. Banks hired him soon after his attempted bank fraud case and people voted for him over 20 years later. He doesn’t sound like an active criminal to me.
When does this seemingly endless Republican circular firing squad disband?
So you’re just going to call every person who would prefer a candidate for Speaker who does not have a criminal past a “racist” (or, more precisely, a “RACIST!”)? Why do you think that expecting more from the person who would be the Republican with the highest federal office is “racist”? If anyone is being racist, it’s those who hold blacks to a lower standard than other public servants. I’ve donated to the campaigns of dozens of black conservative Republicans through the years, and I’ve done so holding them to the same standards as I’ve held any other candidate; I’m not going to start judging people based on the color of their skin now because some hysterical FReeper calls me a “racist.”
And I’m glad that Donalds has turned his life around and no longer distributes drugs or is involved in bank fraud. I’m not even saying that he shouldn’t serve in Congress—that’s up to his constituents, and they seem to be fine with his past. But if the past couple of weeks have proven anything, it’s that it won’t be easy to get 217 Republicans to vote for *any* Speaker, and running someone with baggage is an unforced error, particularly when there are perfectly good candidates without a criminal record from which to choose.
Again, why go with Donalds instead of with Kevin Horn? Horn would have a better chance of getting 217 votes, and then of getting stuff done as Speaker, than would Donalds.
That’s twice that you’ve called me a racist for moronic reasons. You can just read my response to your prior insult twice.
Horn=Hern
Who the flock is Byron Donalds?
So you have no enforced errors? No embarrassing moments or skeletons in the closet? I just need to re-examine my Christian faith.
“You don’t give him credit for turning his life around?”
You can forgive Trump’s mistakes and foibles but not Jordan?
Jordan is very intelligent, informed, articulate and strong in his Conservative views and actions. He would be a strong speaker. Re-think jumping to conclusions about him.
“He’s not Pompeo, but speaks especially well.”
Pompeo is not strong for Trump and Donalds is a strong supporter.
“I am prepared to hear Donalds’s side of the story and what caused him to leave behind his criminal lifestyle”
If it was expunged, it was not very serious. Several acts do not make for a “criminal lifestyle”.
He has recent, criminal history, and yes, he has a lifelong history of civil matters. Look at his Trump university, and other scams that he did.
“He has recent, criminal history, and yes, he has a lifelong history of civil matters.”
I did not ask you to restate your charge on Trump’s criminality. I asked for only one (1) criminal act. Put up or STFU.
I don’t have a problem with Jordan...not happy that he didn’t get the votes!
Does he know what a woman is? Somebody please ask him.
I like him. Every time I’ve heard him speak, he’s been excellent. Correct politics, too.
“I don’t have a problem with Jordan...not happy that he didn’t get the votes!”
I don’t mind Jordan either, but it doesn’t look good for him and Byron would be very good.
Do your own homework.
“Do your own homework.”
I already know. He hasn’t committed any criminal acts. The left has spent millions of dollars trying to find just one, whereas the fool in the White House is swimming in criminal acts and no one wants to touch him. Those are the ones you are in league with.
Again, you are a liar, and I have lost patience with all the deranged Trump haters. You can’t gainsay his MAGA agenda; you may want to, but you know you can’t do it on this site, so you turn your lying hate on him as a person.
