Pelosi reads this, slowly shakes her head and snickers, muttering, “Rank amateurs…they’ll never learn.”
This is a clown show but like, if the clowns raped.
Bullies are gonna bully. That’s what they DO.
Thank God anyone resisted!
Gym Jordan, amongst his attributes of being honest, forthright and morally principled, is a
Grade A bully and manipulator
He’s like imma let the doctor look at you if you don’t vote for me.
Turns out being a raging asshole isn’t conducive to winning people over.
Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving sack of crap..
Spoiler alert. The piece ends:
“He’s saying all the responsible things,” argued one House GOP aide who has been part of conversations between Jordan and some more skeptical members.
So all the whacked out crap he’s been screaming for the last 10 years doesn’t count?
The saddest/funniest part is that they are doubling down on a strategy that already lost him votes instead of gaining any.
Why do they think more bullying will have a positive outcome after it already cost him votes?
Thank god the insurrectionists are too fucking stupid to do anything correctly.
Try to wrap your head around how *weak* Gym and his minions have to be to be unable to bully the *absolutely spineless* current crop of Republican congressthings.
This aligns with everything we know about the Freedom Caucus. They don’t negotiate, they just kick and scream until they get their way.
Basically you need to treat them like toddlers and ignore. Bowing to the pressure isn’t going to make them stop, it’ll just make them up the pressure next time.
“You have nothing! Nothing to threaten me with! Nothing to do with all your strength. And that’s the point. You’ll have to choose.”
This fucking functioning alcoholic really needs to buy ties. Like holy shit stop spending your entire paycheck on bud heavies.
I wear a tie maybe twice a year and even I have fucking 12.
I’m about to send him some. So he can stop wearing the same one every day
That foo got body Slammed!!!
It’s only 20 hold outs.
I won’t be surprised if they give in.
Don’t like him now I bet you’ll love him when he’s your boss.
ehhh. So far it’s pretty much playing out like it did with McCarthy. It’s all theater where the holdouts will fall in line eventually, but they’re holding out for as much ransom as they can get first.
They were running around snapping jock-straps at holdouts… it was just like high school.
The so-called normal Republicans still voted for that seditious pos. I am looking at you, Chris Smith.
We know what they were pressuring with. Trump. “If you don’t vote for me, we will get the MAGA supporters to vote you out”
So his big claim for deserving the job is: “I alone can control the extreme fringe whack job people.”
Kind of a creepy wag-the-dog thing there.
Finally, Republican members of the House are seeing the Republican party like the rest of us and they don’t like it.
Trump is his hero. Of course he acts this way. And it’s an example of what to expect if you put him in charge.
The schadenfreude is strong with this situation. He’s always bugged me and I’m thrilled to see him not just ascending as he thought he would.
If their strategy is to threaten to primary anyone that doesn’t cooperate, then moderate Republicans no longer have any reason not to vote for Jeffries. Obviously Jordan doesn’t play poker.
We are lucky they are so fucking stupid.
The flakey bully sure is an interesting strategy: “Vote for me or I’m coming for you. Mark my words, we’ll primary you and you’ll be dead in this town.”
“Fuck off.”
“Ok, let’s work together on this. Vote for me and I’ll give you what you want.”
No, it’ll work tomorrow because republicans are terrified of the right wing propaganda apparatus.
I’d love to see another vote and he lose even more votes.
