Best thing I read all day
Why are Democrats freaking out if it takes a few days to choose a speaker of the house?
It takes like a month to count the votes for members of the House.

This process is the definition of insanity. Announce an official tally and in the next breath recognize someone that is making the first nomination for the next round of voting. Take an hour break or something between votes to allow for some negotiations.

Let’s see how many officially vote for Trump.
Same as every other round today.
No change.
Gaetz.

They don’t have the votes to take a recess… Dems and oppo are holding the Repubs feet to the fire

Gaetz just wanted to have Trump’s face plastered on the tally screen.
I imagine some are Triggered.

Is Donalds in the 'others' column now?
Posted on 1/5/23 at 5:58 pm to autauga
Yes. Those others are for Donalds.
Even if McCarthy agrees to the 20’s demands, what stops him from reneging on those agreements like the Democrats continuously do to Manchin in the Senate?
The SOTH re-vote thing?

You also have to factor in the no shows. Someone is leaving for doctor appointment and won't be available tonight or tomorrow, think it's a McCarthy voter. Someone's wife had a baby and another's mother recently passed and her funeral is this weekend.
Is the big guy able to promise different things? A la Ronnie Johns

As soon as they place the vote most of them go back and negotiate.
