If House Republicans won't rally behind Rep. Jim Jordan or another GOP member to become speaker, GOP Rep. Mike Turner said Sunday that "obviously" a "deal will have to be done" with Democrats for a leader of the lower chamber.

Turner, a Republican from Ohio who chairs the House Intelligence Committee, told "Face the Nation" moderator Margaret Brennan on Sunday that Jordan, the right-wing Judiciary Committee chair, is his pick for McCarthy's successor. Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina said the same during an appearance on "Face the Nation" last weekend.

Mace was one of eight Republican members of the U.S. House of Representatives who voted with all Democrats to oust McCarthy from his role as House Speaker, in a historic revolt by right-wing lawmakers that came in response to McCarthy's reliance on Democrats to pass funding to avoid a government shutdown. Turner voted alongside the vast majority of Republicans to keep McCarthy as speaker, which is second in line for the presidency.

Since then, the GOP has split as it attempts to elect a new leader. Republican lawmakers on Wednesday selected Majority Leader Steve Scalise as their nominee for House Speaker, with Scalise beating out Jordan in a vote among Republicans by 113 to 99. Scalise later withdrew his name from consideration, and House Republicans on Friday nominated Jordan, with members saying Jordan won 124 votes.

[rubbersole]

2. Don't hold back.

[gopiscrap]

3. excellently put

jordan is a traitor and pedophile enabler, besides being basically a dumb motherfucker elected in a congressional district with voters that little education under their belts

[SoFlaBro]

4. He is such a dumb ass criminal shitbird, that he needed fucking MAGA to fucking fail upwards.

shit

[C Moon]

5. I mean, otherwise he's a good guy...right?

Just kidding.

[SoFlaBro]

6. That fucking piece of shit Gym is responsible for a litany of abuse cases.

n/t

[True Blue American]

7. No, Gym is not a good guy in any sense of the word. He covered up child

Molestation for 7 years, even when boys told him for a molester, who committed suicide when it came out! He is a pice of dung.

[Polybius]

17. I hate to correct you and defend this scumbag, but I have to

Jordan was the assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State from 1986 to 1994. He is alleged to have turned a blind eye to college student molestation by the doctor, not "child molestation" as you said. Both are atrocious, no doubt.

[True Blue American]

18. You ever hear the old adage

About the driver of the get away car and the robbery? They both should have paid. As it is one of the former students, now an Attorney is handling the lawsuits against Jordan. He was there.

[Polybius]

23. I am in agreement, he should resign

If he knew, he's guilty. All I was saying is that is he accused of turning a blind eye to college student molestation, not "child molestation" as you said.

[True Blue American]

27. You know this,how? He watched the molestations in the showers according to several

Ex students. I believe them. They also told him. If the boy had a headache the Coach inspected his genitals. No way could Jordan have not known for 7 years. He was an enablors!

[Polybius]

28. I believe them I'm not sure why you think I'm disagreeing

I just corrected you on their ages. You called them "child." They were college students.

[True Blue American]

31. They were underage.

It was a part of Jordan’s job to protect them. He didn’t

Jordan is from my State. My DIL and 2 of her sisters were in that College so it upsets me that Jordan is in Congress, let alone running for Speaker. He was also an enablors in the attack on Congress and is trying to cover up now.

No argument with you.

[C Moon]

25. I was joking, because SoFlaBro was cracking me up with all his cussing.

[True Blue American]

26. I know you were!

Maybe Jordan does not beat his wife still, but I have seen no redeeming qualities in his life since I have known him!

[C Moon]

30. Okay. Thanks! :)

Just want you to know I wouldn't stand up for that creep at all.

[COL Mustard]

8. Tell us how you really feel!

I'm sensing maybe some dislike?

[Javaman]

11. gym is the perfect example of the peter principle. nt

[Alexander Of Assyria]

24. Face the Nation is an another perfect example of mass corporate media aiding fascism.

Deface the Nation…better!

[cstanleytech]

9. I've always been of the opinion that the Speaker selection should

be chosen by the second party in the House with the most members.
It gives them a more fair voice while allowing the majority party with more votes that way the two parties are more inclined to work together.

[gopiscrap]

14. interesting you should ay that

because that has gone through my head a few times also

[True Blue American]

19. Mike Turner was on Joe this morning.

Said if they did not elect a Speaker they would have to turn to Democrats.

[bucolic_frolic]

10. GOP is splintered into several parts that only overlap on libertarian type issues

Freedom caucus can juice 70-80 of them at times. But they can't seem to put together 220 consistently in a policy package. It's all self-interest - be it business, fundamentalist, social issues. We may yet luck out as they dissolve themselves in vitriol.

[onetexan]

12. Good. Maybe some of them will switch parties or become Independents

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

13. Take your deal and piss off

You're all liars and frauds. Your promises are worthless. This is the only response you deserve to any deal you try to make:



You traitor thugs need to learn to clean up your own messes, for once in your disgusting scum lives, rather than expecting Democrats to do it for you, yet again.

[LiberalFighter]

15. I wouldn't hold my breath with turner supporting someone other than Gym.

He is from Ohio just like Gym.

[True Blue American]

20. FormerDayton Mayor!

I used to think he was a decent guy. Lives in a one million dollar apartment in Dayton..

Sent him an email today. He said, Jim had matured. You do not change when you committed Treason Jim is a loud mouth, bullying piece of something.

[LiberalFighter]

21. Actions speak louder than words for Gym. He has not matured.

Would Turner let anyone like Gym date or marry one of his daughters?

[True Blue American]

22. Mike has 2. One was caught in the Dayton massacre

Managed to escape. His first wife had her own PR firm.. Ended up working with Kettering Hospital

[Polybius]

16. Before anyone gets their hopes up, that deal won't be Speaker Jeffries

Probably it would involve someone like Nancy Mace, with guarantees to support Ukraine.

[SilasSouleII]

29. But... he's wearing a jacket now.

n/t

[True Blue American]

32. LOL!

Very dignified and classy on his part. Just wait until he opens his mouth and starts lying.!
