Gaetz on Speaker vote: ‘Long live Speaker Scalise’

The Hill ^ | 10/11/2023 | TARA SUTER

[MayflowerMadam]

Nope. They’re both terrible. And Gaetz think they’re both good. smh

[TBP]

We were all inspired by Scalise’s recovery after being shot by a Democrat. But that doesn’t mean he should be Speaker.

[Kazan]

Gaetz will have a lot of explaining to do if Scalise becomes Speaker and continues funding the proxy war in Ukraine.

[MayflowerMadam]

Exactly.

[Blue Highway]

Not a fan of their closed door meeting to select a speaker. Hated the McCarthy. Win, and not pleased at all about Scallise

[zeugma]

I’m disappointed in Gaetz.

I don't actually support ANY politicians. Frankly, anything that gums up business as usual in the District of Criminals is good news as far as I'm concerned. Washington were wiped off the map with a nuke tomorrow, my only question would be to ask, "To Whom do I address the "thank you" card?"
