  1. Can’t imagine why some folks wouldn’t want a speaker who hasn’t passed ONE bill in 16 years

  2. Good. I’d rather there be no speaker than this sack of crap..

  3. I was in the world’s pissiest mood all day and realized when I got home it was because I was 100% convinced this chucklefuck would become Speaker today.

  4. You guys get back in there and vote for visionary leader / treacherous child molestor Jim Jordan.

  5. Maybe there’s some GOP members that have a few scruples and can’t bring themselves to support an election denying insurrection supporter. I hope they stand by their convictions so Jordan never becomes speaker

  6. Funniest outcome would be McCarthy voted speaker again

  7. Good. The dude aided in an insurrection against the lawfully elected government. This is on top of covering up sexual assault of college athletes. The fact that he is in Congress is a condemnation of the character of his constituents.

  8. Love that Hakeem Jefferies got more total votes than Jordan. 😂

  9. fucking democrats…refusing to play ball, and screwing over the whole country…/s

    i hope they’re proud. vote hakeem!

  10. Jim Jordan simply does not make political sense.

    He’s toxic to the Republican brand. Well he’s toxic with the normie vote which for 2024 is what will matter.

    the topic of election denial polls awfully with normie america. Making an election denier your speaker is just hitting yourself in the balls and yelling Jumanji

    You can easily find Republican to do the things you want like getting rid of Social Security and cutting taxes.

  11. Gym never worried about things hardening around him. He just ignores it.

  12. Yes yes, put the guy who tried to overthrow the government 3rd in line for POTUS. What could go wrong?

  13. I would be so embarrassed if emer is next and wins. I’m from MN, and his credentials are

    1. Right wing radio nazi
    2. Failed gov campaign that even as a dem i think republikkkans could’ve won
    3. Freebie win in a super red congressional seat

  14. Do the hateful 8 want to lose speakership so they can pin the coming faults on dems?

  15. Hopefully the few moderate Republicans will realize that the GOP will never collectively agree on a candidate and will compromise with the Democrats rather than bend to the will of the Freedom Caucus/Tea Party/MAGA Republicans.

  16. I was listening to local conservative radio tonight. They were going through the list of R people who didn’t vote for JJ and attempting to publicly shame them.

  17. Obstructionist of the highest order. He should be given a medal for that

  18. Presumably there will be pressure applied overnight, and he’ll get the votes tomorrow.

    Then the GOP will be all shocked Pikachu face when the complete shit-show unravels.

  19. They should just get it over with and elect the man who best represents the modern GOP – George Santos.

  20. I saw it reported that he had his conservative supporters harassing some of the members that he wanted to vote for him.

    One of those members who faced that harassment said, leaders don’t need to do that.

  21. Kingmaker Trump does it again. The man doesn’t miss!!

  22. This gerrymandered shit stain shouldn’t even be an option is the first damn place.

  23. I’m happy with Jim stepping up there, but the only thing he’s qualified to do is suck the gavel.

  24. He’s an insurrectionist. A Trump synchophant. Not even qualified to hold his current office much less be speaker.

  25. Jordan in the past screwed over other House members in various ways. Now it’s payback time.

  26. Gym Jordan is the poster boy for why DC has been a mess since 2010.
