Matt Gaetz threatens to resign if Democrats team up with a moderate republican. LOL, and people are supposed to believe that lying sack of shit, "i pay underage females for sex" asshole.
We all know thar the repucks have no fear of being hypocrites.
Too good to be true! Has the same ring to it as Rush Limbaugh saying -- with no sense of irony whatsoever -- that he'd move to Costa Rica if Obamacare was passed.
I don't think Democrats will make a deal with Kevin McCarthy, but maybe they should. If they get better representation in committee or can have a say in what subpoenas can be issued. I think if Hakeem Jeffries (or Nancy) is for it, some Democrats might be willing to vote "present" and reduce McCarthy's threshold. It would make the "Freedom Caucus" go berserk.
I also doubt there will be a deal with democrats. Some people have proposed that the Dems could do so by using just a handful of the more conservative ones.
@Beowulfsfriend No a deal would have to be made with Hakeem Jeffries, Democrats are untied, no-one will go rogue. It could still happen.
@barjoe That needs to be a full decision of the party, I agree. If that was decided upon, then they could designate just a few members to vote for McCarthy or they could all just not show up to vote.
No deal is good for Democrats so just enjoy the latest Con clustering fuck. Their pain is our gain.
