so what's the end game?
Pick somebody else
just like they did when they forced Paul Ryan in
Except there were way more people that helped do that.
Still if they can't get KM the votes, they can't get him the votes, pick someone else.

This is the reason the GOP hasn’t won a majority of the national vote for Potus but once since 1988. These far-right anti-intellectuals are failing the party.
The country nor politics is the same since 1988. Alot of reasons the democrats total votes grow and some are not on the up and up.I guess a select few politicians actually trying to give the people want they want really ruffles your feathers. Some of us were hopeful of a republican speaker that didn't vote with democrats almost half the time and would rather take care of America first instead of Ukraine . But hey we are the weirdos.

Republicans need to vote this through tonight. Waiting until Monday gives the entire weekend and Monday press all kinds of negatives to throw at them. Just get it over with now.

It’s hilarious how this just flies over the head of so many. Or maybe it’s sad.

Wait, some reps have left and they might not win the motion to adjourn. If they have to continue and don't have enough reps they will be forced to vote and Jeffries might win.

If it ends up 217- 216 Yeas to Nays because the one Democrat forgets to vote that would be hysterical

I don’t necessarily disagree.
But the six remaining #NeverKevin are pretty solid.
This is intriguing.

The record is 133. 134 would break it.

Negatives about what? The actual TRUE process of democracy within a republic?
Is debate and dissent a bad thing, like in the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany? Is that where we are at as a nation?

At some point it gets ridiculous. You don't have the votes. Get over your ego and step aside. Let somebody who all agree with have the position. Why is it so urgent that KM have the position??? Because he will be butthurt if he doesn't win??? Friggin ridiculous. Get him the frick out of here for the good of the party/country.
