How does he all of the sudden get 200 more votes? Only if McCarthy drops out?

THIS IS NOT DEMOCRATS PROBLEM TO SOLVE!!!
Jeffries when asked if Dems would be willing to vote for a Republican?

We know there are 19 republicans who will only vote for someone to the right of McCarthy. What I haven’t heard is how many republicans are more moderate and will not vote for anyone to the right of McCarthy- is that number really so small that it’s irrelevant?

McCarthy is going to get it tomorrow. This is all pointless. Manufactured drama. Zzzzzzzz

How many had heard of Drnny Hastert or. For that matter. Until Jan. 6, McCarthy,?

Denny is what happens when there is no time to vet the next speaker

He served as Speaker for 8 years. Not enough time?

Apparently you can molest a bunch of teen boys and the media will uncritically carry water for you while you’re 3rd in line for the Presidency. My ass there’s a “liberal media”

+1
Even now the “liberal media” is enjoying the circus of the GOP’s mess and not really reporting on what that mess means for what the GOP is and how they govern.

And if we’ve learned anything about the GOP in the last few years, Denny Hastert fits right in with the rest of those perverts.

The government doesn’t shut down over this. The House just can’t do any business before the Speaker is elected, which means Congress cannot pass any bills until the issue is resolved.

Let’s imagine for a minute the kinds of things that could happen, virtually instantly as far as outside observers are concerned, that would make having no Congress a problem.

This is really not a good situation.

There is no imminent danger to our republic. The nation was far more destabilized after the 2020 election.

Am I the only one of us who lived through 9/11?

This.
Why on earth would the democrats step in here? The Republicans can’t seem to manage their way out of a paper bag.

He doesn’t want it because he knows that documentary is coming out about him soon.

I'm a Dem watching Fox right now and the Hannity show just came on. SH is actually making a big pitch for Kevin McCarthy as speaker and appealing to those who aren't supporting him. How is this okay?! I mean, I know Hannity had a direct line to the TFG and made policy recommendations to him, but this is just so inappropriate. How is this "news"? I've lived in countries with state-controlled media and this is what the Hannity Show sounds like.

McCarthy is a clown that has finally been humiliated.
