Let us unite as Republicans to elect the next the next
leader of our global criminal enterprise Speaker of the House, Davidson said.
Adding, "for crying out loud lets be reasonable." "How's 3 million in unmarked bills grab ya?"

McCarthy should let his ego deflate and just go.

How is it chaos if nothing is happening? How is it chaos if government is deadlocked? Sounds like Liberty!

I doubt we would be here had the red wave occurred.
To: tennmountainman
Co-equal rule then with Dems and the 20 will have proven their point.

McCarthy needs to step aside. For the good of the country. To show bipartisanship. To bring about unity.
/s
It’s time. Step aside, Kevin. It’s over. The uniparty has lost this time. By the way, how long before Paul Ryan steps up to a microphone to tell us what a disgrace this is?

The GOP throwing in with the Democrats on that horrible budget ticked off an awful lot of people, and not just Republicans. This is why there is such resistance to McCarthy - Trump can't do anything about that since he is on the outside looking in.

Personally, it could stay locked for two years. I’m tired of media and everyone tired of this already. A hundred years ago, they could take days, no one noticed, no one cares. Media now driving this for the news cycle. Let them stew on it and let politics take its course. If I were still living in DC I’d be up in the galleries watching.

One positive outcome from these deadlocked votes is that nothing else is getting done, legislation wise. That’s a win for America.

“Chaos” is a favorite word of the lickspittle media, used, of course, against conservatives only. There is not chaos, but a relatively orderly process, if a futile one, of voting for speaker. Any disorder is being caused by the Communist party with the babies, booze, and popcorn that they’ve brought to the floor.
To: EliRoom8
It would just prove what many of us already know.
McCarthy would rather work with RATS that work it out within
his Conference.

Most Americans are totally ignoring it, and watching Netflix.

McCarthy needs to go to a mail in ballot. He would surely win. Especially if he gets AZ election officials to count them. /sarc

This problem wouldn’t happen in North Korea. Anyone who held up the vote would be put in a damn prison.
And China? A person who didn’t vote ‘the right way’ would be hauled off by goons in front of the whole group.
Only in free countries do we have the ‘problem’ of debate and different opinions and people having to earn the right to lead. Maybe the MSNBC bimbos and pretentious ‘men’ should call in their FBI thugs to force ‘the right choice’...

they rallied behind Rep. Byron Donalds, a Black Florida conservative who won his second term in November. Sacrificial lamb. How many nay votes would Donalds get?
