Per Charlie Kirk: 25 GOP say they will not support Emmer. The Dems might hold out and vote present to lower the threshold for Emmer if he promises to fund what they want.

I just contacted my rep (got an admin obviously) and asked if he was going to let his constituents know his position and why that vote was secret. Politely informed them that this was as big a slap in the face the Rs have ever done to their base. This nomination has pretty much done me in.

What are you talking about.

We are down to Mike Johnson and Emmer. Mike Johnson isn’t connected with Gaetz. Republicans like you prefer a “Republican” like Emmer over one like Johnson or Jordan.

It’s that simple.

It will result in more open borders, more uncontrolled spending, no real opposition to the Democrat agenda.


Haha, unreal

Emmer is totally awful, and Johnson would have been pretty decent. Maybe better than decent.

But like all thinks MAGA, they decided to go in guns blazing with no plan whatsoever and we might get a dem-lite like Emmer.

then another newsfeed said emmers is missing up to 20 votes for the floor vote. As posted in the other thread.

you imbeciles laughing over this are pathetic. you don't GAF and are all passionate conservatives for meatball. you are neocons and neoliberals. no way you care about abortion.

you take such joy in this like they probably are at DU.

Emmers will be worse then McCarthy. This has become a huge clusterfrick and the establishment always seems to win, this is why nothing changes.

Bannon said this earlier about Gaetz.

How? Will he move Nancy and her cohorts back into the Speaker’s offices, since it took the pro tem to tell her to GTFO? Will he screw the American taxpayer by funding the government by continuing resolution? Will he work with democrats to frick conservatives and stab them in the back?

Dude...do you know anything about politics?

Everything is political with these pukes.

What exactly is your approved solution to what's going on?
