JJ & KM will blame democrats for the loss😂
Pro insurrectionist should not become 2nd in line to the presidency. Period.
He just plain falls short.
this 16 straight times hes lost the vote for speaker.
Jordan is an election denier that has no place in leadership!
Jordan is an insurrectionist!!!
these comments are an echo chamber
I appreciate the consistency of Republicans picking losers. We can always count on that.
Jordan’s a traitor!
LOCK HIM UP!!
Seeing Hallie Jackson just slurping a drink is funny and cute 😄
If this clown gets fewer votes on the second ballot than he got on the first – a distinct possibility – it's over for him.
Are the far right house repesentatives still getting paid for doing nothing? YES! Shame on these Republicans, you are losing the next elections by double digits for your pitty selfish personal agenda. You are destroying the GOP.
Breaking….Republicans pivot and nominate George Santos for Speaker of the House. Completing their race to the bottom.
Jim Jordan now looks WEAK AND PATHETIC ALREADY! Not to mention he’s a crook!
Has anybody else noticed that Jim Jordan dresses like Al Bundy from "Married With Children."
Jim Jordan is use to falling short. His wife probably tells him that every other night.
📢 Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa
Hakeem!
Why can't the democratic caucus put all support behind one Republican canidate?
Then only a very few Republican votes could elect a reasonable canidate Dems could live with.
Why not just give Murphy more power since he's the intern house speaker
All the uniparty had to do to keep McCarthy as speaker was to give up using omnibus bills to hide their malevolence.
Levin you can even say that for our President Joe Biden
The Republicans are acting like immature people grow up seriously
How anyone would want a Congressional subpoena defier, and groomer coach to be Speaker is beyond me- he shouldn't even hold office.
Jordan lost by 20 votes! Jordan is a loser.
If five Republican representatives vote present and Jeffries again has 212 votes, he will be Speaker.
Hopefully he can fail 15 more times and break McCarthy's record.
McCarthy has lost his mind. McCarthy's six votes will not save Jim Jordan. Elect Jeffries, who got 212 votes, twelve more than Jordan. Jeffries needs only five more votes to win the Speakership.
Jordan lost by 20 votes, not 17.
Sensible Republican Congresspersons should vote in Hakim and control the house using their majority
Picking & prioritising a Republican agenda supported by Democrats.
One has to wonder if Republicans will consider to vote for Jeffries for Speaker.
GYM Jordan should quit the Congress.
LIBERAL STATE MEDIA……LOL
Trump will get all 217
thank goodness – this man is dangerous
