"There's more going on inside the Republican Party over the House speaker fight than many Americans understand."
It's a typical dysfunctional RINO-circlefest in a well-lubricated sleeping bag.

PMSNBC’s host, Kung Phang says the GOP is doing it to hold “americans” hostage and crap like that.

Hilarious that they include Nancy Mace in the “hard right” group. I believe she is pro-abortion. Her constituency is about 50/50, so she straddles a fence most of the time.
In her recent hard right vote, she said she did it because she was tired of being lied to by McCarthy.

At some point a divorce seems inevitable. There will be a MAGA party and the Republican party will be a hollow shell.

Mace is a floozy who is as squishy as they some. Her political views suit the moment.
To: Carriage Hill
Democrats have divisions, but it seems like whenever they really need to, they circle the wagons. My speculation as to why Republicans can’t do the same thing is because they’re not as ideologically committed to advancing conservatism as Democrats are with socialism.

Republicans (Conservatives) are individualists.
Democrats are collectivists.

I would really like to see an ideological party with just a handful of principles — immigration, budget balancing, state control of abortion (with a preference within the state of a state-wide restriction), no wars, economic emphasis on America First.
Politicians who deviate from the core platform should get no money or support from the national party.
Stand for something.

Perhaps for the short term, and long term be prepared for Speaker Hakeem.

Difficult for me to argue with this article's basic theme...“Follow the money” should probably replace “E Pluribus Unum” in the stinking morass that has become American politics over many years.

Why didn’t the eight geniuses who started this understand that these divisions would make it impossible to put Humpty back together again?
1) Stupid?
2) Lacking situational awareness and foresight?
3) Vindictive/angry?
4) ambitious?
5) Yes.

Me too. And you make a clear case.

Unfortunately, you would have a very regional party if even that, certainly a minority one.
Since FDR accelerated under LBJ the public has been trained to expect their time at the taxpayer trough. Whichever gaggle of politicians can get them there an electoral majority will support.

What’s really happening is that the uniparty* is being exposed for what it is.
