Republican Civil War Watch UPDATE 1/7/23: Repub McCarthy wins control of Speaker of the House (Lost 14x prior)

[MegaManX]

I know this is fukkery season but I don't see this happening lol. The Republican that ain't with it still Maga they just don't like McCarthy.

I am not talking about them though. I am talking about republicans in districts in massachusetts, maryland, pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey.

These guys ARE voting for McCarthy BUT there is so much nonsense they can take before their own constituents say "this is a shytshow. You can go independent, help the democrats, and pull a manchin to keep them in check. We never gonna do shyt with these MAGA clowns."

I see what you saying this sounds like very wistful thinking. I would be completely shocked if this happened definitely do no expect it to go down this way.

Imagine if you are a moderate republican watching these guys call fukking McCarthy a non-true conservative every day for weeks. Having to jump for joy 6 times a day, voting, knowing it won't fukking matter, OVER AND OVER, doing absolutely nothing but performance, while the democrats are having a god damn blast shooting shots, cheering for Jeffries, with unaminous consent.

I just don't buy it lol. I don't see them switching independent and caucusing with dems over this. If you still Republican after Trump and Jan 6th you ain't budging.

In b4 mitch mcconnell gave republicans the greenlight to govern by shaking Biden's hand and doing victory laps in Kentucky over democratic legislation.

Mitch is a terrifying force in the republican party and if he says, its cool, its cool.

Mitch loves the senate because he knows Manchin will cockblock. He absolutely doesnt fear independent republicans caucusing to end the embarassment of the house, and more importantly, to shyt on trump.

McConnell been putting Trump in the ground 10 feet at a time. Every single move since this last election has been to give Republicans the greenlight to rebel.

Like half of the whole ADOS movement. Especially the ones that harp about the traditional family unit.

This dude must be new here. You could have directed him to Tariq Nasheed and called it a day. He really had the nerve to ask that shyt as if the anti-Africa "proud to be an American"-ass c**ns on this bored aint the ones at the forefront of trying to get black folks to accept themselves as "conservative."

Everyone knows the establishment has moved on from Trump. McConnell is just doing with donors tell him. However the Trump base and the Republicans outside it are almost identical lol. They just think Trump is a loser and is no longer useful. I don't see any of these Republicans leaving lol.

I don't think Republican House members actually have to vote for Jeffries. I think Jeffries can become the Speaker of the House if enough Republicans just decide not to show up to vote. There are 434 seats. Jeffries is getting all 212 of the Democratic House member votes, which leaves 222 outstanding votes. If 11 Republicans decide to stay home and scratch their asses tomorrow or go to the movies then that means that there will only be 423 votes cast. If Jeffries got 212 of the 423 votes cast then he is the Speaker, because he would have the majority of the votes and there are only 211 votes remaining that were cast.

I think the longer this goes on the more likely it is that a few Republicans in moderate districts are likely to intentionally niss a vote because none of them are getting paid right now because they haven't been sworn in.

Lol they aren't going to allow jeffries to become speaker. I don't know what the outcome will be probably a different Republican will become speaker but this scenario ain't happening.

If Jeffries somehow wins, the cac outrage will be

 

[Rekkapryde]

Why do they continue voting?

This must be that much acclaimed Republican strength that TLRepublicans want us to support so bad . I have truly seen the light today.

I like how the whole chorus of bandwagon jumping hashtag psychopaths who were once calling Republicans geniuses simply for being bigots, and Democrats are so "dumb" and "gonna lose so bad lmao" just for being supportive of peoples rights and public health.

Go back to those threads during the summer on Ron Desantis bussing immigrants to liberal cities and look how much simple minded kiss asses were acting like this cac supremacist trolling is pure checkmate and "Democrats look so dumb supporting illegals lol." Now they in here kee keeing like they weren't full on right wing set just 6 months ago when "owning the libs" was cool and edgy fodder for idiots.

A salute to those of us who was called "brainwashed shills going along with the liberal agenda." Who didn't believe the coli hype for Republicans when common sense told us who's on the right side of history.
