So.. are we anti-Trump now here on FreeRepublic?
Trump supports McCarthy and is asking his followers to do the same, then shouldn’t we trust Trump and support McCarthy?
I’ll wager it is all performative politics. I may well be surprised but I’ll bet he winds up with the job.
After the left went after the Hammer, Tom DeLay, who would be foolish enough to challenge the democrats
Who cares. Is it really going to make a difference with the ongoing Federal corruption and broken Judicial system.
I guess we're about to find out.
Surprised Gaetz’ name isn’t on there. And Norman’s.
All of the McCarthy loyalists are in favor of the status quo and against reforming the Republican party.
Oh, hell. Might as well re-nominate Nasty Nancy for the job. I’m sure they can find at least 6 RINO Congress critters to vote for her, which would give her the required 218 votes.
Assuming, as usual, that the left will vote en masse for a Demo-rat like the good lemmings they are.
Fantastic!
Reading between the lines the nine Reps want something akin to the ability for a vote of no confidence for the Speaker of the House. They get that and they’ll be voting McCarthy.
McCarthy and his minions, who would be most directly affected by it obviously, don’t.
This is the way coalitions get assembled in the rest of the parliamentary world. Nobody may like the guy in charge, but nobody has a true majority of someone they can agree to be put in that leader spot, so they horse trade. Each small group gets enough of their own promises and goodies in place that they accept the guy in charge. It would most certainly make McCarthy a weaker Speaker, but it would also make him a more accountable speaker.
None of the Congress Critters are addressing the impending CBDCs, WHO treaty theft of our national sovereignty, etc., etc.
The Stupid Party circular firing squad in action for all to see. Scream and yell with no plan, just more of the same old crap.
If he promises to do as Nancy says, the entire left side of the aisle will vote for him, along with the handful of RHINOs need to win.
I’d be happy with either Scalise or Jordan.
I’d be really interested in seeing what they offered MTG
9 House GOPers Reject McCarthy Deal
Democrat mole wanted neon sign on
Looks like the Rats may have a say in who becomes Speaker.
I hope I’m wrong.

What a shame.
Great. Stick it to the left-wing of the GOP. They stuck it to us for long enough. They didn’t fight to win more seats and actively worked against conservatives winning in 2022. So F# them.
