The GOP has pretty much been the permanent opposition since the 50s.

People would rather have the east way of agitating for change and fundraising on it than actually delivering it and having to keep producing.

It is why Bob Michael was passed by Newt Gingrich when they won in 1994 in spite of Michael. Michael wanted to ride the gravy train instead of run things.


Most GOP Speakers after Newt have been similar to Michael in that they wanted to do as little as possible toward what they had promised their constituents.

He has a 94% Liberty score which grades out as an A.

McCarthy votes with the Pedocrats half the time.

Remember when he had Mueller tripping all over himself when he questioned him about Joeseph Mifsud?? Jordan had that F'er twisted in Knots.

Making an unelected official Speak of the House would be the most anti-voter move one could make.

Placing an unelected official 3rd in line for the Presidency would make you SQUEAL LIKE A PIG if the Democrats did it.

That’s a bit dramatic…. I’ve voted my entire adult life and never voted for SOH.

Yup.

McCarthy needs to step aside and allow a more MAGA speaker.
If he’s the substantial choice within the GOP caucus then he’s the speaker. The (disliked) minority doesn’t get to pick the speaker.

It’s all moot anyway as the 20 are just powerplaying. They will get their concessions and then get in line.
