Exactly you had plenty of California races that were stolen and they didnt even fight for it, doesnt take 3 weeks to count votes

I think the other two were Clyde and Cloud.

President Trump has until midnight on Monday. If there’s no Speaker by then, we’re in a whole heap of trouble.
The Stupid Party strikes again.

Correct.
Trump should have had the lawyers safeguard the House and Senate races too not just his own.
Did he forget or did the GOP-e refuse his help?

If they want to speed up the implosion of the country, this will do it. Probably with the backing of several Freepers.

Jim Jordan!?
He doesn’t want this job. He won’t even put on a sports jacket or tie
He talks and writes letters. That’s all he does
No one is better than Johnson and he is terrible
These ijuts have a 17% approval rating. One is as bad as the other.
Get Johnson in there and move on.

There isn't anyone in the GOP caucus who don't have at least 2 reps who would not want them as Speaker. This childish stunt can be pulled by any of them, which means we can't elect a Speaker if everyone "ticks to their guns."
The only workable solution is everyone agreeing to abide by the results of a majority vote among Republicans. Massive won't, so we're stuck.
Again.
