Trump has been working the phones trying to secure the Speakership for McCarthy but hasn’t made much progress.

“Trump tells GOP congressional supporters to cease McCarthy opposition: Breitbart interview”

Jim Jordan, Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch, or Chip Roy.

Anyone know what ‘concessions’ McCarthy made? Perhaps he promised to talk to the hold outs...to The Establishment, that would be a ‘concession’. But perhaps something that actually moves things forward?

Wish it was Matt Gaetz, who exemplifies what the GOP SHOULD be about.

But, practically speaking, Jim Jordan should be acceptable to all sides, and would make a great Speaker.

All signs point to McCarthy being another John Boehner/Paul Ryan wet noodle.

Gaetz is pushing Jordan.

My very serious worry.

Not a good time to play chicken.

Jim Jordan does not want it. He feels he has other important work to do.

“Can’t afford this f’n around while the communists charge forward. We need leadership so committee and staff can get organized.”

Progress and getting organized is completely meaningless if it is GOPe driving the car. Time for them to bend to the will of the people thwarted by the stolen elections. Time for the GOPe to hold their nose and give in to every single demand.

“No. A Democrat will be speaker”

If that happens, every one of the GOP who caused it should be run out of Office. And maybe the entire GOP should be disbanded since the Dems will finish destroying our Country!!

To quote a friend of mine, they are all pieces of $—t.

They had their chance many times, even in Obama’s second term and then when Trump was elected and they blocked everything Trump tried to do. They are all bad.

McCarthy isn’t the enemy. We’re fighting communists. The battles will be waged and won in committee, not on the floor. The longer it takes to organize the slim majority, the more harm the communists inflict.

The enemy loves this pissin’ contest.
