I dapped that post because it was a good post and I agree with his points. I don't know what me dapping his post has to do with my personal life, what are you getting at?
This is the most they will work all year
You post like a survey-taker about every little thing you say you want to do but when it comes to talking about MAGA politics, you're quick to dap shyt. That's all
I don't have confidence in myself and low self esteem.
You reporting that back to your boys on /pol/?
I don't post there.
Surprised you didn't ask me what it was. Agent confirmed
Don't rule it out, because for many moderate Republicans in Democratic leaning districts it might be easier to work with Democrats than dumb ass Jim Jordan or Matt Gaetz or clown ass Majorie Taylor Green. They are not going to cross the aisle and vote for Jeffries but they might make it a point to miss a vote especially when they realize that McCarthy is not going to win and the alternate choice for Speaker is a MAGAt fool.
Something else to keep in mind is that if it is this hard to elect a Speaker then it is going to be damn near impossible to get all the Republican House members on board to pass legislation. That is why I would not rule out moderate Republicans eventually disappearing for a few hours on one of these votes.
The Constitution requires that there be a Speaker of the House. The Speaker is 3rd in line to the Presidency behind the President and Vice-President.

Right-wing media lash out at Fox News over its coverage of the House speaker vote
As the House of Representatives continues to struggle to elect a speaker, Fox News has received backlash from its further right-wing media counterparts over what those critics describe as the network’s general support for Rep.-elect Kevin McCarthy, (R-CA) who has so far lost the speaker vote...
- Right-wing personalities the Hodgetwins also attacked Fox and Friends for “calling people INSURRECTIONISTS if they don’t support Kevin McCarthy for speaker.” [Twitter, 1/5/23]
Them boys still milking that black conservative shill money

It's going to be difficult for them to pass legislation regardless lol. They don't have the Senate, don't have the presidency, and have a razor thin majority. I'm ruling out Jeffries as speaker. Obviously it could technically happen but it won't. They will not allow him to become speaker by not voting lol. That serves no purpose everyone hears it loud and clear that those 20 Republicans don't fukk with him. The messages has been sent. They aren't going to do it I guarantee they won't.
It is not the 20 Republicans that don't deal with McCarthy it is the moderate Republican House members that don't want to deal with that MAGAt 20 House members. Both groups have different goals. One group wants to obstruct and open a bunch of useless investigations. While the other group wants to push through their own legislation. Nothing will get done in this Legislative session. Not even the small amount of bipartisan pork filled spending bills. I would not rule anything out happening tomorrow including McCarthy withdrawing.

Dude you literally telling me some shyt I already said I'm aware no legislation will be passed. As far as the 20 saying it a different way it's still 20 voting against him which is exactly what I've already said. Wtf is going on here?
