Considering that Scalise and McCarthy voted for Jordan, I’m guessing they try to fuck this pig st least one more time. But let’s see how the Clint ends. It’s at 15 now, I bet they think they can get 12 to flip. 

The auto correct is killing you!  Lemme guess, it corrected count to ...something else... and you tried to correct it back and it ended up Clint.

He's making it too easy and fun.

I have plenty of laughs for that collection of shitheads in Congress.

[Bozo_Casanova 26993]

this is a very bad number for Jordan. His people thought they were around 10 or fewer no votes.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19367]

So 1 did not vote.  20 against Gym.  212 for HJ.

Anyone remember how bad McCarthy's first vote was?

[cactusflinthead 27629]

Bwahaha!

 

[shakahorn 1660]

All these cowards didn't vote 'no' first time around now voting no.  Well, except Cardenas who was probably out smoking dope with a trans BLM activist the first time around.

I was watching Fox because their feed was 1-2 seconds ahead of of MSNBC and CNN.  But for some odd reason, they stopped covering it.

If I were a Dem Rep named Zimmer, I would have voted for Trump, just so he'd finish last and rage tweet about it.

Did Fox switch over to a discussion about Benghazi? Or Hunter Biden?

It's not like counting votes is an important skill for Speakers.

[Nice Guy Eddie 13765]

Makes no sense that McCarthy only had 5 votes to kick him out but they’re going with Jordan with 20 votes against.

If so, let’s go right to Round 2.

[SydneyCarton 49538]

I’ll assume all the Scalise and McCarthy votes go back to Gym, which leaves 7. That’s a lot of pressure on those last 7. Especially the, what, 3 for Zeldin? Seems like this can get done if that dude from Florida returns. 
 

assuming it goes that way, as opposed to him losing more votes.

Is that enough votes there to flip the house next year?

[kevwun 16460]

I am sure there are quite a few yes votes who only voted that way because they knew Jordan wasn't going to win.  That would be something jackasses like McCaul would do for certain.
