“All hope lost”? I for home have plenty of hope that this will lead to further hilarity as his vote keeps dropping until they get tired of the circus…

      They’re using Kremlin/Mafia tactics, but their typical Russian targets don’t fight back.

      Oh do fuck off. This is not “identity politics”. This is taking pleasure in US far-right extremists demonstrating how inept they are. Having them fail at getting the speaker is a benefit to everyone but the far right.

          Yes, it is an embarrassment to you that some of you elect these extremist assholes. It’s still better they don’t get given more power for the sake of it, and that their dysfunction is demonstrated to voters.

          These fuckers are the enemies of anyone without severe brainrot.

      The Republicans nominated someone who directly supported an insurrection, and who has proven repeatedly that he has zero ability to build consensus. Are you really arguing that we should be supporting him rather than cheering his failure to get enough votes?

      This isn’t identity politics. My guess is that some democrats would vote for a Republican centrist in that position, but they aren’t going to support someone who’s even too far right for a number of Republicans.

      America needs to understand the “burn it all down” party will burn it all down. This is not identity politics. This is a fact.

      It’s always you with these stupid takes, every time. I try not to block people because I’m not afraid of differing opinions, but I’m going to make an exception here. You consistently post the dumbest shit and are quite often flat out wrong.

      So, bon voyage ya dumb fuck.
