  1. Matt Gaetz, marjorie, lauren bobbert and george santos should throw their name into the circus and make it interesting. One of them could become speaker. Just picture that nightmare scenario.

  2. Until these clowns will continue to ignore the need of Democrats' votes, the House will remain dysfunctional. This situation was not foreseen by the founding fathers – the GOP going nuts. Its time to do away with bipartisan. Time to consider another party – the GAL: Gays and Lesbos.

  3. A Republican speaker could win with some Democratic votes. It could be a Republican who is completely right wing on policy but who has character and regard for the truth that Jordan lacks. Jordan is a grandstander that will always insult everybody's intelligence with his absurd rhetoric. I oppose the Republicans and their programs, but they have the right to have a Speaker who works for their policy without being a congenital liar and troublemaker like Jordan. OF course maybe a lot of Republicans could not stand a Republican Speaker who has the character tolerable or admired by any Democrats.

  4. As such it seems he would.
    Disrespectful Country Politics.
    First entice the reluctant candidate to run for election, in hopes to unite the country/politicians. Later act as a (bleep), carrying on as though, he is the issue, facing the nation. Who is stupid?? Just plain rude.
