It seems that the 20 are pretty strong …they haven’t wavered -

Who blinks first?

Why haven’t more KM votes defected? I mean…at best, this 9th vote shows weakness - if one or two cave and vote for Donalds/Hern/ vote present ….it’ll send an amazing signal that it’s over and then one of the STRONG leaders could make that money move and they would be Speaker

I want them to go for 134 rounds. Would be the new record.

I say the longer we go without half of congress the better. I hope they never elect a speaker.

When moderate Republicans finally decide once and for all if they hate moderate Democrats more than MAGA.

What STRONG establishment leader would appease the 20?

That's actually an apt gif, but probably not for reasons you were thinking

Could be McCarthy, but no one is cheering him.

Hopefully until the Republican majority obeys the people and not the FBI.

The 20 aren't leaving, but they're going to face consequences down the line for not leaving (like Belfort)

Then the majority won't support it, and there are a LOT more of them

I doubt it. Most of the GOP constituents are behind the 20.

In a lot of districts, there isn’t an alternative strong enough to supplant people who need to be primaried.

The 20 carry the voice of all Republicans from coast to coast; not just their own districts.

Significantly reduces the amount of damage that DC can do this way.

Like what? Getting voted out by RINO constituents or do you mean being neutered by RINO leaders who are angry with their insolence?

Won’t get $$$ for the district…won’t get good committees- that’s how they will pay
