I just told Mike Johnson in conference that I’m cosponsoring the Motion to Vacate that was introduced by @RepMTG.

He should pre-announce his resignation (as Boehner did), so we can pick a new Speaker without ever being without a GOP Speaker.

All one party has to do to remain in perpetual power is not be crazy and neither can do it

More GOP nonsense. There's not one person they'll rally behind to lead the party, just like last time, yet morons like MTG will keep bitching and cause more chaos in an important election year.

The Dems are weak as hell right now but the GOP does whatever it can to make sure they're not liked by undecided voters.

So now who is next?

Who is “America First” AND can get the necessary votes amongst his/her peers to be elected?

We don't deserve Massie. One of about 5 national politicians that are worth a shite.

The GOP continues to be self destructive. Our "leaders" are divided in political beliefs and actions.

Trump's instincts will get us where we need to go but there are idiots on either side of Trump who will not join the team.

They refuse to win.

The republicans having control the house has been useless for years . Atleast the senate got the Supreme Court justices . The hardcore GOP should make the next speaker agree to work with them and not the democrats. Once the new leader works with the democrats he gets ousted .

This is what happens to when you gerrymander districts to the point where they are deep red or deep blue.

You consolidate so much of one ideology within one Congressional district, where you don't allow for any wiggle room, which results in slim majorities.

Does Massie care that the result could be some from the republicans electing Hakeem after too many infighting votes?

So, they got rid of swamp to replace it with swamp. Now, they're getting rid of swamp to inevitably replace it with more swamp. During a time of a razor thin "majority".

This is why the GOPe is naught but the controlled opposition wing of the Establishment Uniparty. And this is why conservative America is rapidly dying.

Aren't we overdue for an errant asteroid or comet impact??
