Classic example of how a few right-wing nutcases can hold the party hostage.
Man was I wrong. The R nutcases humiliated and neutered McCarthy. They are in control now.
Usually, you need to give them enough rope to hang themselves. Now they are bringing their own rope.

Wasn't he the Matt Gaetz 10 years ago? I'm glad he didn't win.

Anyone that goes into politics is assumed to be a clown.

Threats fly as US House Speaker race turns ugly

Had a R on CNN stating his wife got a call he would never be elected again. I wonder what happened to this party?

Missed the vote today. Did it get closer?
Google had my answer. I guess it just got more insane as they now cancelled Jordan.

9 members running for speaker. 7 out of the 9 voted NOT to certify the election. This party is completely off the rails.

Who said they call it diversity? All it matters is competency but I doubt if even that is a high priority.

Are these candidates nominated by others or self nominated?
