“Here’s my biggest complaint about Gaetz...”

In other words, allow McCarthy to remain in his position because you don’t know who is coming afterward?

It is always the luck of the draw, but we know who we have in McCarthy, a democrat.

“If you don’t win elections, you don’t get to steer.”

That’s fine. Have fun steering when all the passengers you don’t want to listen to are busy tossing out anchors.

Not exactly.

There are 220+ GOP House members, and when they gathered after the 2022 elections to select a House Speaker candidate, McCarthy had the support of almost 190 of them. The rest of the candidates combined only had the support of 30+ Republicans.

I would like Matt Gaetz to explain to Republican voters which Republican House Speaker would get anything done to move his agenda forward.

As long as the Republican exists, this is what you’re gonna get. A leopard doesn’t change its spots.

That may be coming, or, everyone could just give up.

You are confusing consequences with actions and decisions. You are also ignoring the fact that elected politicians have largely devolved into mere performers rather than actual decision makers, as evidenced by the fact that they no longer even bother with even the appearance of a budget.

Both the budget and the border disasters are creations of the administrative state for their own ends. There hasn’t been an actual candidate for fiscal responsibility on the ballot in decades.

We don’t have a government responding to the will of the electorate, instead we have a government managing popular sentiment for its own ends.

I agree, but I don’t think the elite think that way. They assume the worst will by pass them.
