I love watching these politicians get uncomfortable I hope it drags on till we see hands thrown on the house floor. Hope Donalds can pick up some more next round it’s time to shake things up

I’m completely clueless on this and haven’t been able to watch.

Are we going to end up with a Dem speaker?

I pray the more this happens the more the establishment dies a little inside.

If McCarthy decides to work with the Dems and gives then major concessions in exchange for their votes

The "conversations" on the house floor are looking a lot more animated today.

If McCarthy gives concessions to Dems but not to Gaetz, et al, then the GOP is done.

The only positive I can give McCarthy is at least he was honest about not being a true Republican.

The Hill is reporting that McConnell is talking with Dems about what it would take to get their support.

Well, at least we get him to take off his sheep mask.

And people wonder why the 20 aren't on board with McCarthy. It's a shame it's not 200 more.

I am trying to slide back the c span replay.

Did the c span commentator just say Kevin is negotiating with the democrats?

Yes, they were reporting on a tweet from the Hill that he is negotiating with Dems over a "consensus candidate."

Yeah

Rather than give in to the conservatives, he's giving in to the liberals. Just more proof this guy is a RINO bitch.
