House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) dropped out of the Speaker’s race on Tuesday, just hours after the conference nominated the Minnesota Republican for the top job, according to a source familiar.
Emmer withdrew his name from the running after a contingent of Republicans made clear they would not back him on the House floor, making it virtually impossible for him to secure enough votes to win the gavel.

Yeah, RINOs are bad enough, this clown would have been an utter disaster.

Byron would be great. We might even pick up some black male votes in 2024. Unfortunately, black women are a lost cause.

Excellent. Some British paper made a big deal about Emmer calling Trump and slobbering all over him. They implied Trump was so vain it would get him to back Emmer. Ha, take that a-holes.

The conference is hopelessly split.
Because there’s not an honest man among them.
None will trust another’s commitment to kill any bill that does not have the support of the majority of Republican house members.
