The party of Trump, the loser party.
Why is it so hard to get someone choose someone with ethics ,intgriety, adult, trustworthy , honor the rule of law and the constitution and is experience or are they still wanting to hold on to revenge, hatred, nonsense, acting like wackadoddles and choose someone who has no knowledge nor experience to fit the speaker position like jordan
Rs can’t agree on anything. Jordan’s certainly not fit and Gaetz should have been fired long ago because he’s not fit to serve anything not even hotdogs!
Lord we ask for protection over this whole world and Country In Jesus Name Amen
McCarthy needs to get out of the way. McCarthy is a black eye for America.
The Speaker should NEVER be an extreme member of the House.
The bottom line is, McCarthy still gets more votes than Jordan.
I was telling a friend today that I learned the value of cooperation from watching Sesame St as a kid (not in the US). Get these muppets out and let the real muppets run the government!
Anyone who follows Trump is in for a downfall, everything Trump touches dies.
I’m glad Jordan didn’t get the votes. He’s an arrogant narcissist that shouldn’t be allowed to be in office because he is a puppet for Trump
Who was that RINO that lunged at Matt Gaetz? He needs to go.
Death threats. Sounds like the party of crazy, mentally unstable people. What happened??😢
To much government is not good, lets get rid of the Republicans, it would be a good start …
Listen I pay Money to see good old drag down fist fight between GOP member. I know it will not happen. But it would be GREAT to see. Few Bloody 🩸noses. Oh well one can dream.
Just kick Gaetz out of the House. All 212 Democrats will gladly vote to have him removed. You only need 78 Republicans to make it happen.
This is not so much about the Speaker. It is however a battle for Uniparty supremacy.
Democrats saved America from GOP madness twice already in 2023. They were the adults in the room for the debt ceiling increase and averting the shutdown. Republicans aren't prepared to govern. I think voters need to remember that during a time of two of our allies being at war and with another looming government shutdown, Republicans can't represent the American people. Nor are they willing to reach across the aisle to find a compromise. They'd rather watch everything burn if they can't get an election denier to be Speaker.
I’m surprised they can comb their hair
Ahol EV McCarthy started this problem by being a turncoat.
The twenty hold outs are hurting our Country forget the hurt feelings forget the bad craziness of a looney making threatening calls instead think of your country the shape it’s in your hurting our country we can see through you you don’t know if those calls came from your republican constituents it was probably a plant from democrat party get officials involved if you were threatened instead of thanking it out on your country that trusted you enough to vote for you
Jim Jordan and his ilk are a blight upon America and need to be removed from the house and senate to preserve our rule of law, and indict those making threats on the telephone to wives of those who oppose said ilk. 🤒
Been too much back stabbing in the Republican party. To the point where there is no unity, just bitterness. I really wish that some of the party would offer a candidate to the democrats to consider or even negotiate with them on a candidate.
And all of this starfed because Matt fesrs the ethics investigation
At some point, a Republican who wants to get back to work, will vote for Jeffries.
This falls squarely on the shoulders of Matt Gaetz, the narcissistic, immature Trump want to be. His actions have fractured the majority. Those who are holding it up should be challenged upon re election. .
Matt the RAT is the problem 🐀
The GOP can kiss control of the house goodbye in 2024.
All actions/pre-plotted to exploit weak areas/systems to "BRING OUR GOVT to HALT"..DERISION/COUP/CORRUPTION..FOLLOW the $$$..
I mean it’s a total Jim Jordan move. He’s an obstructionist by nature. He gets elected by his district to crash the government. Holding the speakership hostage is his nuclear option. Government is broken as long as he holds and that’s what his faction is after.
We can settle this, MMA style…
Republicans cannot even lead 1/3 of the government!
This is what happens when the GOP sell their morals to support trump, no backbones no morals no hope america vote dems if you want a working democracy
Good sweep them into their own swamp
Our entire government is a modern day joke! We just sit by and watch our country burn. Who's the idiots?
People like Gaetz only function is to cause dysfunction. Jordan is no better than Gaetz, he's chaotic and nearsighted in vision. He has no leadership skills and is a lap puppet of trump.
After this watch what happens to them in the election it's going to be
Gatz is doing all this for attention to him for a exposure and to help him with governor race and he never got on media now he is on every day
The swamp is dysfunctional, even more than normal. Time to stop paying them, they aren't doing anything useful anyway.
Russia and Hamas are cheering on the MAGA Republicans
It would been nicer to watch a cat fight.
If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed…….and we will deserve it. – Lindsey Graham
This is what the GOP gets for becoming the MAGA party.
