Randalor posted:So why do the chaos caucus have so much pull anyways? Why would it be political suicide for an R representative from more purple or blue districts to threaten to cross the aisle and back Jefferies as a show of "I can be bipartisan and not just want to destroy civilization as we know it" if McCarthy keeps bending the knee more and more to the chaos caucus? Sure, people in deep red states may hate their guts, but they're not voting in the purple states anyways. Republicans voters don't want bipartisanship, even in purple states there is a solid core of chuds that you need to win in order to win your primary

12 eastern I think there is a small chance that McCarthy wins the first vote today, but if he doesn't I think we're probably here for weeks/months

Xombie posted:Donalds voted for Jordan on the last count, so it will still be 20. Nope, it'll be 21 if Jordan votes for Donalds, because Jordan will have gone from a McCarthy vote to a Donalds vote

Youth Decay posted:So did McCarthy actually try to do anything to help himself between yesterday and today or were the cuckoo caucus the only ones with any sort of strategy to increase their vote numbers? It's been exactly the same so far (except for Donalds instead of Jordan)

coelomate posted:Why would Jordan vote for Donalds? He gave 1,000,000 speeches for McCarthy yesterday, and asked not to be nominated for speaker. Didn't say he would (and he didn't), just that if he did then it would be 21
