Why doesn’t he just endorse Kevin McCarthy again?

At this point, I no longer care what the Republicans do.
This has been a bitter pill of a lesson on just how scrambled our Party members are at this point in time.
It’s been a real education!

“This thing is blowing up “

Instead of Designated Survivor it’s Designated Loser. Everyone is unable to get the votes.

Hate to say this but every loss by Jordan was followed by Leftist media “a man closely aligned with Trump” or “the MAGA Trump follower.”

Better to say “I’ve been so busy defending myself against a dozen banana republic attacks that I haven’t really followed the speaker race.”

Guess it’s too late.

It took 15 votes to get McCarthy over the finish line, but when it comes to electing a TRUE conservative they cast him out after 3 votes.

I hope the conservative base votes against EVERY rino the establishment bought and paid traitors put up.

If the rinos are that resolute in bringing the party and the nation down, so be it.

Anyone associated with McCarthy should be No votes.

All that and they beamed with delight that they could again perpetuate the myth of the Jan 6 Insurrection while hanging that bell around Jordan’s neck.

Including Jim Jordan?

Remember this. No speaker...No stupid spending. Is there anything good coming from the Repubs that this no speaker is hampering? No...

“This has been a bitter pill of a lesson on just how scrambled our Party members are at this point in time.”

They know exactly what they want. This is about whether conservatives have any say in the budget at all. About 20 R’s are adamant that budgeting should just go on the way it has for the last two decades. I suspect those 20 also want a speaker who will continue to refuse to release the J6 tapes and who will go easy on Biden’s corruption.

Trump does not support House Majority Whip Tom Emmer becoming Speaker of the House and has privately relayed that sentiment to his supporters

Privately relayed. Sure thing.

Emmer is my former rep. His very first vote in office was for Boehner to be speaker and it's been pretty much downhill from there. He also voted in Ryan and McCarthy. He looks like he's put on 50 lbs since going to DC probably hanging out with Scalise.

Last year I moved out of his district and now Pete backstabber Stauber is my new rep who voted against Jordan.

I just can't win.

Newt Gingrich would make a great speaker... lots of experience and he’s a Trump supporter.

Mike Huckabee would be great...

Go for it, Rover! Maybe you can hound those lost sheep back onto to the ranch, you being a Border Collie and all.
