Kevin McCarthy is a stupid rear end in a top hat with no shame or self-reflective capabilities and I hope he continues to be a stupid rear end in a top hat for a long time to come and you guys just have no Speaker of the House for the 118th Congress.

I'm not gonna hand anything to Matt Gaetz but it WAS amazingly presumptuous of K-Mack to move all his poo poo into the Speaker's office before they even held the vote. So gently caress yeah, make him crate it all up and move it back to his original tiny cubicle, just for the continued humiliation alone.

The US is long overdue, in my opinion, for good old fashioned east European/south Asian style parliamentary floor brawl. If Kevin McCarthy wants to be Speaker, he can only trust his fist. His caucus will never help him.

Pleasant Friend posted:What about a joint speakership position? Would McCarthy be satisfied as co-speaker? I doubt it. This has been his dream for well over a decade. It's all or nothing for him, and nothing is quickly bullying all out of the room. I doubt he'd take a pity part-time Speakership gig, no matter who offered it.

The complete absence of Steve Scalise in all this has been an enduring mystery to me since this started. The fact that he has not emerged by now as the heir apparent to get McCarthy to sit down means that he probably doesn't want to be Speaker under any circumstances, so that's why the rest of the caucus is flailing about nominating clown show candidates because no one actually seriously wants the gig besides McCarthy. The #2 option for them at this point besides McCarthy is literally nobody. Because if it was Scalise, we'd know by now because Steve Scalise, the physically dickless wonder that he is, is more than ready, willing, and able to just walk in and poo poo down McCarthy's neck like a honking giga chad if he wants something, and he hasn't which means he doesn't.

Comstar posted:Why is the Republican Party not throwing the chucklefucks out for doing this? Why is there no pressure on them to stop this? Because the chucklefucks are the Republican party. There is otherwise zero daylight between Kevin McCarthy and Matt Gaetz on 99 out of 100 other issues. This just happens to be the 1 out of 100 that causes the whole apparatus to try and divide by 0 where those nanoangstroms of difference actually matter.
