Kevin McCarthy Has A Total House Floor Meltdown As Build Back Better To Be Voted On Tonight


https://www.politicususa.com/2021/11/18/kevin-mccarthy-has-a-total-house-floor-meltdown-as-build-back-better-to-be-voted-on-tonight.html





In one of the worst political strategies in modern memory, Kevin McCarthy is holding the House floor in what looks like a tantrum over opposition to universal pre-k and lower prescription drug prices.

McCarthy wasn’t arguing against the Build Back Better bill. Instead, the House Minority Leader ranted about immigrants for a good hour.




As he entered his third hour, he began to tire. Soon he was rambling about Trump not winning the Nobel Prize:



Soon McCarthy was yelling random things that came into his head:


McCarthy, “Inflation, gas prices, Thanksgiving.”

It’s the perfect encapsulation of the emptiness of the 2022 Republican campaign. They’re mad. They’re yelling, and they are making absolutely zero sense.

2. We Find It Insane, But The Other Side LOVES, LOVES, LOVES IT!!

They're probably eating this shit up like it was chocolate cake.

I'm not sure if there is really any way to fight this. How do you argue against Stupidity and Unreality, when the other side doesn't give a shit what you have to say?

Seriously, the only options are to either agree with them completely, or waste your time arguing reality with them. Either way, you're gonna lose.

4. Yep. In the eyes of the hard right nutjobs, McCarthy "owned them libs" tonight. nt

3. God help us all if McCarthy and his goons regain power.

5. They're freaking out. The Crazy Caucus knows that it's up against the wall. nt

6. I Have No Idea Where You're Getting That Idea

The Crazy Caucus is RUNNING THE SHOW. They Control The Party.

People like Liz Cheney are the ones with their backs against the wall. Her and Adam, all 2 of them. People like Jordan, Gaetz, MTG, Boebert, are the new leaders of the party. Backs against the wall? Hardly.

[Progressive Jones]

7. I didn't mean within the GOP. The Crazy Caucus IS the GOP. I'm talking about

the fact that a lot of voters are going to get turned off by them as they keep doubling down
on the delusion.

The hard core radical right will always be there, but anyone can see the party is melting down. The Dems are going to have a lot of good material to campaign on in 22/24. Biden's gains, and the degeneracy of the GOP.

8. You Have FAR More Faith In The Average Voter Than I Do

I tend to think that playing to the lowest common denominator has worked for them in the past, in fact the Very Recent Past, and they will embrace that method so long as it continues to do so. It is their Brand.

[Progressive Jones]

9. Ha! I have less faith than I might let on, but I also have a hard time seeing this state we're in

lasting forever. The problem is that the average voter pays little attention. Then the nutjobs have been activated. I still say we're bigger than they are.

10. I Pray You're Right

I tend to be a pessimist.

I thought that Biden would win the election going away. Seeing TFG get some 47% was a big wake up call that we're truly a fucked up country.

18. In the Trumo led screeching about a rigged election,

the winning side didn't need to question how much GOP election fraud went on.
I automatically assume GOP election fraud in certain regions.

11. He's sounding more and more shrill.

Soon he will start talking about the holidays being canceled and what his kids want from Santa. He's blathering incoherently.

[blogslug]

12. OMG He's still talking?

This child. I swear.

16. 3:42 AM here. I just tuned in.

He wanted a late night vote. Democrats fooled him. 8 AM.

Now he is talking about General Grant and the Confederates. Bad subject.

Now on to Taliban. He forgets Trump signed an agreement with them.

17. Green eggs and Ham?

[monkeyman1]

13. probably got a ear piece in & daddy of mar a crapo telling him what say ???

14. here is the link to the lunatic

[True Blue American]

15. I am listening to him now. He has been

Going on about Democrats losing 20 seats. Many would be glad to lose their seats if they helped set this country back on it’s feet.

Most behind him are not listening.

Wonder how long they deliberated the 55 votes to kill the ACA?
