Wasn't it just a couple weeks ago all the talk was about how we need compromise?
Now a lack of that has set up a situation where Jim Jordan might become Speaker of the House. Do you see that as somehow better? Because I consider that much worse.
McCarthy set the stage when he gave those people the ability to remove him. Then they removed him with no consensus in place to replace him. Jim Jordan isn't getting elected unless something dramatically changes
McCarthy lied to the Democrats when he failed to adhere to the budget deal he agreed to with the debt ceiling deal.
The Dems will help eventually...when the Republicans stop putting forth names who 1) aren't from the extreme right 2) aren't election deniers
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
