It's funny that everyone knows that McCarthy will be the weakest speaker ever, yet they still want to vote for him. Even if they actually like him for some reason he has already proven time and time again that he isn't a leader.
Liz Cheney for Speaker!

37:44 This "Club For Growth" hypocrite has a very punchable face. Their group's name sounds like a club Trump would be apart of, according to Stormy Daniels 🍄
They will never be partisan in any way shape or form
Ecclesiastes 8 verse 9 no peace in the world why
They should not be paid until they get back to work
This video is mostly propaganda. F the 2 party trap.
To me the word REPUBLICAN, MEANS JIM CROW KU KLUX KLAN! WITH BLACK REPUBLICANS SUPPORTING WHITE SUPREMACY! OMFKNG
Let's look at the concessions, please look carefully at what concessions they are asking for , they are DEMANDING the ability to DISMANTLE the government for the purpose of installing TRUMP and SUPREME leader of AMERICA
This is a carefully constructed TRUMP silent behind the scenes coop, planned fully by DONALD Trump himself
Dusty Johnson selling you turds as brown churros 😂😂😂 hilarious……..
If those FOOLS were competent, this would have been resolved WEEKS ago.
Republicans lost the House of Representatives in 2018 by just over 10 Million.
2024? Republicans are getting their @$$'$ kicked by a LOT more than 10 Million.
"If you don't have the fight on Monday you gotta have it on Tuesday or Thursday…" These morons never considered the option not to fight; to work together.
Just because chuck Toad is on TV doesn't mean he knows everything, the democrats can vote for the speaker but they choose to vote for a democrat speaker which is never been done in a hundred years while the house is being controlled by republicans that is your problem sir because if the democrats would vote like they should we have a speaker republican.
Again the democrats are playing a game and the republicans just have to deal with it that's the way it's been for the last 4 years if not 6 years

Commentary from the swamp
The republican party did this to themselves. In more ways than one. For decades, now the Republican party has been pushing further to the right a little bit here a little bit there remember the tea party movement that was a major step to the right. Then of course you had the Donald Trump presidency really angling to the right. It became less about republican talking points and more about my way or the highway chaos. Republicans embraced chaos to get the base riled up now you actually have people in Congress who have no problem with chaos. It was OK when these people were a very small percentage of the elected officials in Congress the problem is the overall number of Republicans in the House of Representatives is the smallest lead in a long time, probably ever so that means that the small majority which has grown somewhat has more power than ever. Remember, they favor chaos, and they have power that they can flex they have influence. Just enough influence where they can mess things up. They said we don’t mind messing things up. Stop being government completely, and now Republicans who supported these individuals because they got the base riled up have to deal with it.
The same Republicans, who should’ve been pushing for Matt Gaetz to be tossed out on his backside now they have to deal with him. The same Republicans who watched Kevin McCarthy criticize Donald Trump, January 6 and Bend a need to Donald Trump a month later. Have to deal with trying to elect him speaker of the house. They are in a difficult situation at best. Remember they have to govern on this slim majority for the next two years minimum. How can they hope to get anything done when you only need a few votes to up and anything you might want to do. I just look at all the concessions he hast to agree to make, which will make it even harder to govern. What happens in the future if someone pushes to make these concessions, the norm for many Republicans are in control of the house of representatives. Remember, there was a time when chaos wasn’t the norm for Republicans now it is or at least it appears to be so.
Dem's could nominate a moderate Republican. Christine Todd Whitman.
“ process is orderly and humane?” Biden truly doesn’t have a clue what he is talking about.
He’s had TWO YEARS and it’s been total chaos and no positive actions taken.
Maybe talk with some regular, every day Americans and ask what they want?
This meathead republican from South Dakota is living in a dream world. He is lying through his teeth 😂.
There should be a limit as to how many times a nominee can be voted on.
This is an embarrassment and speaks volumes to the “rigged” system in our government.
Like Trump, McCarthy can’t accept that he isn’t going to be the speaker because he isn’t getting the votes.
Who is elected as speaker shouldn’t hinge on “deals.”
Unbelievably the people involved aren’t even hiding their demands and that their votes are for sale.
Absolutely insane.
Here's Tulsi Gabbard's chance to step-in for a potential win.
Huh, evidently NBC knows nothing about the Republican party or what the issue is with Maccarthy… shocker.
Dem's should nominate Christine Todd Whitman.
McCarthy should a deal with Democrats. Make his dream come true and never run again.
It's like an alternate reality of denial… that could lead to incarceration… to watch McIntosh disacknowledge the real consequences of FTX. In the same interview he is discussing Super PACs determining the legal framework of federal voting legislation between each other. The U.S. Supreme court has ruled a lot on Super PACs to prevent corruption. This is legally binding. FTX could lead to 20 years incarcerated. It is important to recognize the difference between your personal opinion and the law.
And then you have the alleged santos person
It wouldn't surprise me if some of these Trumpublicant's may cross party lines just to show Kevin McCarthy they truly mean business.
You have to mine it. Hahaha! Ponzeycoin!
Club for growth guy has a little shop of horrors plant behind him.
LoL he moved his stuff in, like im boss,no you don't bra 😛😛😛😛
