Vacate Watch - Speaker Mike Johnson (R - LA)

Take a breath and recall that in 1855 the House was without a Speaker for two months and it took 133 votes to install one.
It's not good. Don't need to be hyperbolic over it....we may need action from Congress to react to world events....we do need to pass the budget resolution already or possibly default.
 
Lol...dude...you are dreaming.

I'm not the only one with that opinion.

What you meant to say is, "everyone else is dreaming", right? Haven't you been professing to be the smartest political pundit here? 🤔
 
The vote is 220 to 209. The Republicans have a new speaker. An inexperienced 'clean-slate' individual who believes Trump won the 2020 election and was a key player in the attempt to invalidate the January 6th certification results. Let's see how this plays out with the weight of the legal battles surrounding D. Trump and associates over RICO charges and other matters.
 
Gotta love it if an election denier wins huh? Such a well thought out plan for the Democrats
You still refuse to understand that this chaos would've happened regardless of how Democrats voted. Gaetz would've voted again to vacate until he got his way.

And they'll blame it on Democrats just as you continue to do.

The rest of us are the reality of the shit show that is the Republican party and will look to use it against them next year as much as possible.

I doubt he makes it to the New Year.
 
It does. And the Democrats fucked themselves. Watch and learn
and yet you were the one insisting that mccarthy would be the one in the speaker seat, or did i get that wrong?

oh look, i wasn't wrong. hope you're watching and learning, dribble.
post 685, by dribble:
Once they ask...we should. Because we helped facilitate this clusterfuck knowing how dysfunctional the Republicans are and still sided with 8 traitors.

Emmer won't get the votes. There is only one path out of this. Same as I have been saying for 3 weeks. McCarthy. It will take a dozen Democrats to do the right thing

He is a Trump supporter. He is on record to impeach Biden. He is on record to cut discretionary spending. He will be here a long time
Says the guy who assured us that McCarthy would be speaker again.

0-1 soon to be 0-2.

Watch and learn.
 
He has the full support of the Democratic party. The Republicans will turn on their new guy before the end of the year.
That's because the whole democrat party are wild ass marxists. Biden's toast. Dems take back the senate and the house increases their majority.

I was. Because that made the most sense. It required higher level thinking. If you go back to the very first Jordan vote...what did I say? I said what? The moderate Republicans had a choice...to cave...or seek help from Democrats that just stuck a knife in their back. What did they do?

Tell me bright one. Where does all Appropriation Bills originate? Tell me how this benefits Democrats? Explain to the families receiving WIC why they lost it.

We shall see won't we ?

If the election was today...would Biden win? Do the math. Figure out the Electoral College votes
 
Johnson to Jeffries - "we're going to find common ground for the American people"

Gaetz (probably) later today - "we need to get rid of Johnson"

Which means?

I will tell you. Let's take the CR. It means the Republicans break it up into pieces...make cuts across the board...and either the Democrats in the Senate must cave...or we shut down.
 
No projection. Rory is in denial about how this will play out in 24. You...simply do not understand how things work. Watch and learn
you're really going to have to get a far taller box to stand on if you wish to carry off the patronising, lol
 
I don't need to prove to you I am right. Time will fo that. That isn't patronizing
