Yeah! Make Hakeem Jeffries the Speaker, cause that’s where this could go.

How would that happen? Name 1 Republican who would vote for Jeffries.

It takes 218 votes to become Speaker (as I understand it) so there is zero risk of a Democrat becoming Speaker without some Republican votes. I support the holdouts.

Ever notice, it’s just considered NATURAL that GOPe and moderates will be -forced- to vote for the democrat if they are placed into a position where they have to vote for a conservative?

Nope. Jeffries needs a MAJORITY, which he wont get because the republicans are now the Majority. It will likely be Mc squishy or another milk toast “get along” repuke.

I heard that D.s and R.s are cutting deals to make Liz Cheney speaker. I’m not sure what the end game is on this one.

If the GOPE is that stupid and THEY ARE, they’ve thrown 2 elections already, then so let it be written, so let it be done.

The GOPE will give their wives and daughters as whores to the Democrats to compromise with but would rather lose than give anything to their conservative base. What’s wrong with you people?

Hakeem? Is he an adherent of the religion of peace?
