It’s going to be a communist democrat that becomes speaker . No GOPer is going to take that job .
Why doesn’t Matt Gaetz take the speaker role? |

Quoted: What about the one eyed butt pirate from Texas? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: All it takes is 5 purple Republicans to side with Democrats to elect a Democrat speaker (Hakeem Jeffries), or a D-friendly Republican. "Not possible!" you might say. No, it was 100% impossible when the Speaker position was filled. Are we going to go another 15 votes with no Speaker elected? What happens if the next shutdown looms closer and there is no speaker? Maybe those purple Republicans start to consider the overtures of the Democrats. ...or maybe they don't, and the government shuts down and it is (correctly) blamed on the GOP who couldn't get their own house in order. Of course, there's no chance that could have repercussions in 2024. Best case is we end up with a Speaker who doesn't want the job like Jordan. Worst case is Jeffries. Either way, the odds of repercussions in 2024 are not 0. Literally everything you just wrote is baseless nonsense. If any R member votes for a D speaker, then he deserves to lose in 2024 and will. Which is why that won’t happen. What about the one eyed butt pirate from Texas? F that guy |

Quoted: RINOs aren’t conservatives. I’m to the point now that slim majorities are simply Band-Aids on a severed limb. We do need some bold actions and we need more radical, bold (actual) constitutional conservatives who aren’t prostitutes to lobbyists and bedfellows with Marxist democrats. Gaetz is doing exactly what 99.87% of GD always bitches about, that nobody does anything, and when somebody takes bold action they fucking capitulate, waffle, and get scared about “losing”. Here’s a hint: we haven’t been winning shit in a long time. I think most Americans with two braincells are starting to understand the Uniparty and the how much they’re getting fucked regardless of Marxist democrats or RINOs in leadership. It’s time to dump a little tea into the RINO cesspool, give the finger to the establishment, and get enough radicals in congress to start bitch-slapping the American-hating democrats. Decorum needs to die. Statesmanship is a losing strategy. Compromising at the expense of the American taxpayer needs to come to an end. Negotiating with the enemy (democrats) should be verboten. Tolerating RINOs should be punished, it’s time for actual conservative radicals to go RINO hunting and start putting heads on stakes.

Quoted: It's a hideaway office off the House floor. Former Speakers have always been given one. It's not the actual office for the active Speaker. Do people seriously believe this kind of stuff? That McCarthy and the GOP would be scared to actually make Pelosi move out of the Speaker's office after her party lost control? View Quote I know that. But it's was STILL HIS office and letting her stay makes him look weak. Should have have booted her out the day he took power. |

Quoted: If Geraldo is against him, he's a fucking hero in my book. Look, what Gaetz did today was select the hottest button issue the Dems AND RINOs are on about (Funneling money to Ukraine) and jam his dick in it to stop the machine. Politics as usual be damned, it's about time somebody just said FUCK IT and gored their motherfucking ox. I would give up a lot of ground on other issues to deny the fucking Dems and Swamp Rat RINOs the money to give to their fucking pet foreign country. It's a hill worth dying on. Just my opinion.

Gaetz is telling it like it is but unfortunately none of it can be fixed because we don't have the political will to do it and the American public (voters) have become so comfortable with Government involvement (intrusion) in their lives. Our Nation is indeed in Chaos and is morally corrupt and bankrupt. The Republican Party is feeding at the trough alongside the Democrats.

The house , senate , FBI and about every gov agency needs an enema top to bottom.
Its about time laws are enforced ( the same ones they passed ) starting with immigration and cut off spending on crap that is not a constitutional right which is a shit ton of money. Unless people , on both sides , go to jail for misdeeds its more of the same. |

Quoted:
View Quote If they really want some revenge they could start an investigation of Nancy Pelosi's dealings with the Capitol Police leading up to and on the day of Jan 6. |

Quoted: They don't understand how it works and are militantly resistant to even attempting to understand DC. They think randomly throwing bombs in all directions will suddenly overcome a slim majority and pickup seats in 2024. And, somehow, have convinced themselves that they're going to interrupt Ukraine funding by deposing McCarthy. When, in fact, Ukraine funding in the eventual omnibus will likely be significantly higher than what McCarthy might've been able to limit it to. I'd say bookmark this thread and revisit in about 13 months but I'm not convinced they can truly grasp what's about to take place. View Quote I think even the democrats voted against funding Ukraine anymore in the recent government shut down. No one wants to explain it during a re election filled with inflation. |

Our Nation is indeed in Chaos and is morally corrupt and bankrupt. The Republican Party is feeding at the trough alongside the Democrats. View Quote Everyone in the thread criticizing Gaetz because he “doesn’t have a plan” and “doesn’t know what comes next” falsely presumes that it is his responsibility. As someone who is decidedly NOT in “leadership,” it’s not his problem. He fragged an untrustworthy leader, as a rank and file member, and demonstrated for everyone watching the consequences of betrayal. That was the full extent of his plan, and he has no responsibility for “what comes next.” That is squarely in the laps of “leadership,” who claim to be the “adults in the room.” They can figure out how to select a speaker who won’t get fragged for being a swamp donkey. |

View Quote So the most immediate and visible consequence of Gaetz fragging the speaker is that a bunch of democrat swamp donkeys lose some swamp privileges to which they had become accustomed. That sounds like a start. Now turn that inward. |

1 out of 8 Americans lives in California and 6 million of them voted for Trump in the last presidential election. That's greater than the population of 31 of the other 49 states. Conservative Patriots have very few allies in this nation. We should be supporting our brothers and sisters behind enemy lines, not insulting them or encouraging them to run away. We consistently slam Democrats here, but I can't imagine people on DU slam like-minded individuals there simply because they live in a red state. It's fairly pathetic that we need to look to their example for how to stick together in a fight. |
