Is the current 7 for Jordan enough?

Yes. I’m not watching but he can’t lose 5.

How many rounds until one of these losers nominates him? I'm shocked they didn't do that on the first round.


It’s usually two rounds. After that everyone is free to vote for whoever they want. A democrat should nominate trump. It would cause Al” kinds of problems.

The clowns are in charge now! Going to be a long two years and if the consequences weren't so dire, it would be fun to watch.

How many moderate republicans are left? Are there enough to block Jordan? I think most were swept away over the last few elections either in primaries or generals.

They're trying to put Gym Jordan up as speaker now.

All Dems will vote present if he agrees to a rules package that:
- Allows Jeffries to bring to a floor vote any bill passed by the Senate
- Takes away committee assignments from everyone who voted against McCarthy on the first round


Agreeing to that would cost him the republican votes that he has right now

Or well Dems switch to McCarthy with the promise of good committees and favorable rules.


Not going to happen. He wouldn’t follow through on commitments. Republicans can’t be trusted to operate in good faith. Also, he doesn’t control the committee assignments of Democrats.
