Crawthorning Gaetz is pretty funny. However, the GOP has so many problems it's not just Gaetz there are at least 20-30 of the extreme flamethrowers in the House on the GOP. Another 30 or so are holding gas cans saying but I didn't hold the match!

The House is pretty much on fire...and the GOP is getting EVERYTHING they deserve for far too long the Democrats have had to bail the GOP out of the craziness....and better way to ask this...would any of the Problem Solvers GOP Caucus members vote to save Pelosi...they all know the answer is no.

I did see that Pelosi got kicked out of her office, at least she won't burn in the house fire.

GOP Pettiness....expecting them to bail the GOP out...and even when they did that (while she was at the funeral preparations for her friend) she was like okay whatever. Again there is an expectation that the Democrats should always protect the GOP from their crazies....sorry no the reason the House, and GOP overall, is that the Democrats are always expected to be the adults in the room and paper over the crazy. There is an unwritten rule here in DC...no matter how crazy the GOP gets or how bad of actions they do...it's always those Dastardly Democrats at fault...If only they let Romney win the GOP wouldn't have went to Trump....If only Biden didn't win we wouldn't have had January 6th....Gore vs Bush (read up on the Brooks Brothers Riot) Democrats were to accept that a SCOTUS effectively said we 5 conservatives believe the GOP should win and to take it.

Democrats won’t be able to resist saving the GOP from craziness until they stop caring about social safety nets and what happens to those who are the worst off.

The next speaker of the house represents a real departure from crazy that the whole GOP will be able to embrace:

I had no idea the outgoing speaker got an office in the capitol, i guess in theory when the pubs kick out the next person they can boot McCarthy out and take the office.

Let the GOP do it. For far too long the American public has been protected from consequences of their votes. It's time...let the GOP run wild and when their voters are hurt the most...they can look themselves in the mirror.

The consequences of the votes for The Grifters Biden is out of control spending, unpresented national debt, inflation that is nowhere close to being in check - the opposite in fact, yet another perpetual war, constant revisions and re-revisions (down) of economic numbers, outright lies about job growth (thanks to the Philly Fed for exposing), taking our strategic petroleum reserves down to levels not seen in decades all to try and buy a few votes in the mid-term, and a border that is completely out of control . . . on purpose etc. etc. etc.

But that got damn GOP

Is there a way we could trade in our gerontocracy / idiocracy for some young, intelligent and pragmatic leaders?

I always thought Lindsay Graham's 2016 (?) "if we nominate Trump, we'll get destroyed" was a bit over the top. But, man, Trump will absolutely suck them dry if he has the opportunity.

They need to drain it now because he intends to take it all for personal use.

I thought they only had like $20MM. That's nowhere close to enough.

It isn't. They should just give it to him now and close up shop

This thread seemed anachronistic (the quaint idea of a post-Trump GOP), so I checked who the OP was and was surprised to find it out was/is sys.

my guess is that dems will be able to hang onto the governorship in north carolina through another election cycle.

North Carolina has enough transplanted yankees that he just might lose.
