12 thoughts on “Nine Republicans announce intentions to run for House speaker

  1. Poll out over the weekend: 64% of ALL Americans want GOP to do their job and elect a speaker. Any speaker.

    This has the potential to cost the Republicans big. Especially if the government shutdown happens on Nov. 17 because they can’t get their s(tuff) together.

    1. It may indeed “cost the Republicans big”.

      But the Wappo is far less willing to report on internal bickering among the House Dems, which harbors both the most staunch Israel support, as well as a faction that is ardently pro-Palestine…as well as a small but quite vocal and heavily publicized group that is openly championing Hamas.

      Do we expect in the future to have an Al-Qaeda supporting contingent among the Dems? Is the current Hamas support really any different?

      Clown car indeed. Glass houses and stones.

    2. Focus, Lauren. We’re talking about House REPUBLICANS and their inability to “form a government” while they’re in charge of the House again…and comments from the last three REPUBLICAN speakers going back almost 30 years indicate that this was the entirely predictable outcome of electing “burn it down” legislators like Jordan, Gaetz, and their ilk: terrorists, holding the House hostage.

      When 64% of all Americans agree on something, playing “but look over here at these other clowns” is a sad and desperate tactic.

      (And I don’t recall Nancy Pelosi having such issues with the lunatic fringe of her caucus.)

    3. Annnnnnnd…..the backpedaling deflection begins.

      Must be frustrating how many of us know the election was rigged and your “terrorists” are freedom fighters.

      Do you remember the days when your beloved party stood for the little guy and was generally against war and excess corporate power? Now all three of these positions are “ultraconservative” and “extreme far right”. And you wonder why we laugh as you keep murdering one another in your failing cities.

      Burn it down, Vladimir. Or maybe Volodymyr will burn it down as revenge instead, considering the “I support the current thing” subset of IBJ readers has basically already forgotten what Slava Ukraini means and the greenbacks are getting diverted elsewhere.

    4. Focus, Lauren. Republicans in the House can’t elect a leader. Nice that you called out your own “deflection” and Russian bot viewpoint, though.

  2. “Only two voted to certify the election.” These aren’t clowns…they are a threat to our democracy. Election deniers do not belong in leadership positions in our government.

    1. If Mitch McConnell says it is a “low quality candidate” it is a high quality candidate. That’s the rule for GOP.

      Best of all–out of goggle eyed desperation, they’re now talking about floating Liz Cheney as a Prez candidate! You can’t make this stuff up. The carpetbagging billionaire daughter lost the primaries in one of the most conservative states in the country, yet somehow we’re supposed to think neo-libs would vote for her. If they floated Liz Cheney (basically a peroxide blonde Nancy Pelosi) or even Nikki Haley, I would write in Bernie Sanders. Or even Cornel West.

      Your democracy deserves to be scraped off the bottom of a shoe. Because it’s nothing more than two wolves versus one sheep deciding on what to have for dinner, and everybody knows one of those wolves is origami paper made from Dominion voting machine printers.

  3. Having some difficulty following this thread. Seems to have started off as a commentary on the House Speaker fiasco, and then exited off to another freeway, and then got lost in a cloverleaf interchange. Maybe Jeff N. should impose a “single issue” rule…you can comment on the speaker’s race, for example, but other comments are deemed not germane and therefore barred, until another news article appears as to which such comments would be perhaps appropriate.
    Just a thought…
