There are two types of House Republicans. Those that are ultra MAGA like Jimbo & Bimbo and those who fear MAGA as a threat to their careers. Currently there is a deadlock and its a matter of who blinks first. There are reports from yesterday that only about 10-20 Republican members are opposed to Gym for speaker and that low number is not very reassuring. And now we have Hannity from Faux campaigning for Gym. Its sickening.
