Gym Jordan loses first house speaker vote...Deja Vu?

The second vote should have started 19 minutes ago, but has been postponed until tomorrow while the GOP, uh, figures out who they support.
A totally normal political party capable of governing a nation, guys.
Over under on 15 votes?

It’s gonna be Jordan. They’re out of time and there’s no one else.

Maybe it's their turn to be comically inept and they'll be forced into a consensus candidate with the Dems for someone ostensibly less ghoulish than Jordan.

Jefferies has more votes than anyone on the Republican side.
If this goes for more than 9-10 votes, some Republicans in Biden districts may vote present just to end the shit-show from the MAGA goons.

Best outcome here is that no speaker is ever elected again. Why?
Because if Congress can't pass shit, that means they can't fuck us over and it means they can't send more money to Ukrainian Nazis or Israeli Zionists. Fuck both of them.
When is the last time Congress did something that benefited us? The only thing they can do is frivolously spend money (that enriches them), give money to various radical groups, and chip away at our remaining rights.
I hope we never have a speaker again. Best possible outcome

Inflation reduction act, CHIPS act, Medicare negotiating drug prices...
Turns out that when you get rid of republicans, good things happen in congress.

I know we are stuck with two big parties, but damn, if there was ever a chance to change one of those for another it seems prime right now....shit almost makes them as ridiculous as they are.

False!
Trying to have a government more representative of the electorate is anti-democratic and only helps fascism.

You need to add a "/s" to that because I guarantee a lot of people take that seriously and it solidifies their foolish/wrong thoughts that have been pounded into them by Fox News, among others.

Jordan was just unnominated in a secret conference vote. Back to the drawing board for Republicans
