So what’s the plan from here?

One of the 8 was Nancy Mace, who supported McCarthy in January and has a very RINO voting record.

We get a new speaker. What’s not to like?

If the new Speaker is like the old one, which is a real possibility, then what did we achieve?

Kevin was utterly clueless.

McCarthy was arrogant because he knew he had a deal with the Dems. They double-crossed him, which apparently never occurred to him.

Electing a Speaker who doesn’t do the bidding of Plugs the Pedo, Schumer and the rest of the Demonrats. You in ?

We sent a message that they either get with the program, or they can be replaced with someone who will. 99% of political leaders should be replaced with the frequency of diapers.

That McCarthy went on Twitter/X and wrote “Bring it !” was the height of arrogance. That Matt Gaetz got 100% of the Demonrats voting to do the bidding of the Conservative base was sheer brilliance.

And do you think that’s actually likely? Remember, this is the same crowd that put McCarthy in in the first place.

And Republicans have a virtually infinite capacity to learn the wrong lesson from any situation. They’ll probably give us someone like McCarthy. Do you think Speaker Scalise would be better?

Getting 7 other Republicans to do the bidding of the Democrats was also very clever.

So you’d rather stick with the guy who enacted the Demonrat agenda over someone who might actually enact a Conservative agenda ? How was McCarthy a good deal at all ? We knew in January he was garbage.

Scalise, if his record is any indication, is precisely 3% better than McCarthy. An improvement, yes, but barely. I think Scalise should retire, his health isn’t good. Better to spend it with family rather than in the city where leftist hate almost got him assassinated. Then again, you’d think that would’ve pushed him to being a 200% Conservative.

How was dumping a RINO/Demonrat puppet Speaker serving the Demonrats ? They got played, not the other way around.

Amazing how big the Derp Kevin McCarthy fanboi club is around here. Between you guys and the Ukraine/Zelensky globalist trolls, FR is turning into Demonrat Underground.

“Kevin was utterly clueless.”

At that point in time he believed Pelosi would keep her promise to support him.

LOL. And for the same reason. My young kids used to call people like that “poopy brains”.

I’d rather stick with the deal they had than have no plan and kill that deal. The strong likelihood is that it’s going to get a little worse.

You don’t do this without a plan for what comes next.

Hillary agrees, she wants Gaetz punished for dumping RINO Kevin.
