How many election cycles to weed out the RINOS?

Most of us won’t live that long

We’ll see another 40 years with a democrat Speaker first

The Republican party used to be a place I called home.
No longer!

He'd be a great choice.

Can they put him as SOTH?

Exactly. McCarthy resided over the $2T deficit increase in two months, a 6 week vacation when they should have been working on behalf of the American People.
These twenty are insane because they keep voting for the same policies and expecting different results. When a change was offered, they refused. There’s a storm coming. The Republican party is finished.
Prepare accordingly.

Nope the Hamas wing, led by Gaetz, embarrassed themselves. Gaetz does not represent rank-and-file Republicans.

You can't whip 218 votes AGAINST a sitting speaker while that speaker is in power. The plan was to vacate McCarthy and then whip up the vote and try to win. Gaetz lost absolutely nothing trying.

You can't vacate the speakership with 8 Republicans voting with all the Democrats, then complain when 20 Republicans work with all the Democrats to essentially elect a new Speaker.

Gaetz performed a "Ready, Fire, Aim" and missed.

Matt Gaetz is looking pretty stupid right about now.

No, it's people like you uniparty supporters that look, and are stupid. Another election or two and you POS will be gone.

So Jordan caves. Refuses to go down fighting, just goes down in compliance.

that is SUCH a weak position and response. why in the hell would any conservative (probably jumping the gun on you with that assumption) want to continue with a congress that shivs its constituents and votes against the American people over and over and over? They’re lining their pockets with laundered Ukraine money and destroying our nation from the inside and then we have to contend with this mindset that we better not fight back! Holy crap is all I can say

“Matt Gaetz is looking pretty stupid right about now.”

That’s because he is stupid. A back bencher with no plan. So, now the alternative is McCarthy lite, lol.

Between points A and B, the GOP is made to look incompetent and not worthy of governing.

The Dems will gain a 30 plus majority House, expand the Senate and keep the WH. FOOLS !!

LOL and McCarthy did? Apparently rank in file republicans means making side deals so democrat agenda’s are pushed over conservatives and the budget keep ballooning, as well as refusing to release public evidence of J6.

I think you mean uni-party rinos.

If being a rank and file republican means continuing to be the democrat managed opposition what is the point of the party, other than to screw over the people they lied to that they promised to represent!?

I’m as annoyed of the tried political cliches as anyone, but the one about the dog who chases the car with no plan on what to do when he catches it is apropos here
