Why choose a Republican to unite the country when they can’t even unite their party
Not Do fast FAKE NEWS – MAGA
First the democrats push for racist policies, then they turn antidemocratic and now finally they vote to not have a speaker. Why would anyone vote democrat anymore?
Now when bobert is seated next to someone I find myself looking for what her hands are doing. Well you all know in the legislative body they call that being party friendly.
If you want to implode the party get mtg to be the it girl.
Now trying to find a leader where there is none. Factions idiologs and criminals, whom will be chosen to wear the thorny crown become the whipping boy, always under the threat of being tossed aside.again who will be this lacky coward be?
There just not worthy…
We have a two party system: Crocked Party and Stupid Party. Republicans are the Stupid Party. They can’t even figure out who to vote as Speaker. Very frustrating.
I love the way that idiot thinks they have to get along with the Dems to get anything done for the people
Can anyone tell me why the caption I am reading says that Scalise dropped out of the race???
I recommend Mr. Larry Kudlow as House Speaker. He is a well-known economics expert and middle of the road Republican. For the next few months, the putting together of proposed government appropriations that the Senate and then the President can approve is the main focus of activity of the House. He seems honorable enough, to me.
Putin to Lavrov: Looks at these clowns at the congress, they are sooo funny! Lavrov: More popcorn?
Because we don't want unprofessional ignorant this sounds like some sort of threat instead of saying no comment like a professional but I understand why you can't do that with the book bag on your back
I don't like that girl that said I'll see you at 3 goodbye to whoever you were that said that
Good grief. I'll volunteer my services to my State. I love my Country and I'm not the least bit impressed or intimidated by those with money or power. Usually have no regard for y'all. I don't want anything of real value or need much of anything at all. I have little that requires maintenance. I've no motivation to be bribed or bought. Nobody's taking it with them, so what's the point? Stupidity and greed, purely and simply . I'm neither stupid nor am I greedy. Why are we paying RINOs?.
We have Biden in a bad position and GOP decides to hurt itself.
Pathetic
Why can’t someone like (R) Mike Lawler be considered for House speaker? He seems a smart, sensible and competent man worthy of that position. This childish ridiculous behavior of the House is more Trumplike insanity. WTH?
And his ass quit before a floor vote.
Why
Only MAGA will be allowed. If Gaetz or Donald Trump are too busy, it should be George Santos. He’s MAGA. No RINOS. MAGA rules.
There seems to be not a single decent person in the republican party. Creeps, perverts, abusers, fraudsters, criminals. I live in Europe and I am appaled at this crazy show. Republicans, why don't you just give the speaker job to a democrat, shut up and finally start working?
how come we can't get any information on the vote. will they drrrrraaaaaaggg it out to the next election? how are they planning to take advantage of us now ? go in the room pick one of your guys and go vote. who is holding up this simple decision. are they weighing personal gain or public pain. get on with it!
I not support new speaker of house.
Big mistake, he votes with democrats.
not totally supporting rep steve scalise becoming the speaker of the house. he is the second kevin mccathy, not working for the Americans' interests, working for biden's interest. don't trust him, wake up Americans
