Ahem, Dear Gym...

^^ That must have scared Gym off.
He has decided to cave for now, no more votes for speaker until January, but will be working on a plan with McCarthy, Scalise et al to expand McHenry's role as Speaker Pro Tempore. Wonder if he plans to be McHenry's puppeteer?

Gymbo doesn't know what he wants with his weathervane spinning in the winds.
Leading a klown kar from behind isn't easy.

Gymbo is evil incarnate like DeSantis, while Trump is just an dangerous idiot, but a very useful idiot to the folks who control the GOP. Trump leading the pack while holding rallies and Gym Speakering would have been a dangerous combination before a general election.

‘The Most Disgraceful Behavior By Republicans In My Lifetime’: Gingrich Lets Loose on House GOP
https://www.mediaite.com/politics/th...-on-house-gop/

Um, the “Republicans” qualifier is superfluous here, Newt. Your party is a thorough disgrace, and has been for years now.

Whell, you surely must agree with Newt, right? : rolleyes:

The problem I have from the link above is Gingrich parroting the same BS, eight Republicans joined hands with the Dems (word he used was allied), but from what we know, the Dems voted as a group as expected. Yet they would like to portray this as some sort of a JV between the Dems and the eight wayward Repugnants. More raw meat for the tribe to keep then incensed.

Quote:

all of it started by the eight traitors. That’s what they were – traitors, who abandoned their party and allied with the Democrats against 96% of the Republican Party with no idea what they would do if they won.

Gymbo is back to Square One. No deal on expanding the powers of McHenry, so Jordan is pushing forward with his candidacy while arm twisting along with a death threat or two. He was at 199 last count and hope the downward trend continues.

Why do I keep thinking of the movie Groundhog Day????

I what world is Gym Jordan worthy of being inline for the Presidency?

Didn't we see something like this in a gangster movie?

“I’m putting all your information over the internet now. Everybody else is,” they continued, adding, “You’re going to be fucking molested like you can’t ever imagine,” but “non-violently.”

They went on to add, “You must be a bitch to marry a fucking ugly motherfucker like that.”

Someone must have an awful lot to gain by having GYM in the Speaker's seat.
