The House Republicans are now voting again to lose the 2024 elections.

They look like idiots. They are completely incompetent. Even Fox News has turned on them. They are going to look like incompetent idiots for the next 2 years and that will hurt them badly in the 2024 elections.

Extremism always destroys itself in the end.

As long as their agenda includes tax cuts and "owning the libs".

It will hurt us. Legally we have no representation until a speaker is elected to swear them in.

I’m actually watching this. They got that freshman African-American from Michigan to nominate McCarthy (again). When he said the American people had spoken and given the Repugnicants power I had to laugh. Then CNN zoomed in on serial liar Santos walking around with a stupid smile. These clowns are so incompetent.

Time for more popcorn.

If they get a Speaker by next week, the average voter won't remember in November 2024.

Even after a speaker is picked the crazies will continue to make the Republicans completely dysfunctional. They can block everything just like they are now.
