    Conservatives would normally say that being unable to accept responsibility for one's own difficulties, is a sign of moral weakness, and would probably attribute it to poor parenting...
    or possibly, also, to genetics.

    LOL-- with which part of the population, do you think Dems would most benefit, from getting a P. R. lift:

    1) those who supported denying Biden the office of the Presidency, to which he'd rightly been elected, by keeping Trump installed as President?

    2) Those who support all of his Committee's investigations, to show how Trump was unfairly persecuted by the "Deep State," and how Democrats cheated, by controlling social media (even though they were not in power)?

    3) Those who agree that government is useless, so admire Rep. Jordan's notable accomplishment of serving for 16 years in the House, without passing a single bill of his own, or on which he was a sponsor?

    3B) Those who are government shutdown enthusiasts, and admire Jordan's work as an architect of both the 2013 and 2018 shutdowns?

    4) Fans of wrestling, "don't ask, don't tell," and "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil?"

    Yep, one party rule because the Republicans are too incompetent to actually do anything. That makes it the Democrats fault.

    Elementary school "king of the castle" playground game appears to be where the Xtofascist MAGA's top out when it comes to EQ. "No, they started it" is the other game that pops up all the time. The need to REPLAY "I like you more than him/her" game on a daily basis seems to never end.

    There are NO adults in the Khaos Kaw-Kuss.

    WOW Republican care and talk about “ Blind Trust” for elected offcial. I am wondering where were you when Trump didn’t put anything in Blind Trust?

    Democrats claimed they had a bipartisan candidate... So much for their marketing.

    it just keeps getting worse and worse for the GOP

    jordan receives less votes each time

    I know the answer but someone needs to ask the below question to Jordan in public

    "Have you no shame"??

    Later in the press conference, Jordan was asked whether the 2020 election was stolen from former President King Mierdas. "Yeah, there were all kinds of problems with the 2020 election," Jordan said.

    Trumpism needs to die. For the sake of the Republic, it needs to go away, and that means its agents, the agents of Trump, in Congress need to be sent packing or put into the minority so that they can't cause significant harm.

    "Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) saw the House of Representatives again reject his bid to become speaker on Friday ― this time by the biggest margin yet, after some of his fellow Republicans said they’d received threats after voting against him in earlier rounds.

    Jordan garnered only 194 votes from House Republicans, down from 200 in his first attempt and 199 in his second vote Wednesday."


    Third times a charm? Um...nope. Hey Jordo....you're going in the wrong direction. Hahaha..what a crap show.

    Jim Jordan loses third vote as more Republicans abandon him


    A former Republican member being interviewed here calls it the "revenge of the RINOs." He also describes it as a fight that needed to happen years ago and is happening now.

    Fact is, it's the trump caucus who are RINOs, and it's long past time real Republicans stood up and said it.

    It starts and ends with Trump. He has taken over the party. Gaetz, Jordan and McCarthy are among those who do his bidding as they spinelessly pander to their radicalized constituencies.

    Translation, yes democrats are actively lying about being willing to be bipartisan. As always, we strive to be accurate around here... LOL

    Your candidate Biden just got us into not one but two shooting wars, and endless civilian deaths and suffering. And this is what you're now worried about? Blood thirst in action...

    Republicans are the ones that refuse to meet.

    Dems said to McCarthy and Jordan set a date, but both refused.

    First thing the GOP caucus must do is send a nominee that might be palatable to even a few Dems. The first nominee was nominated 14 times, never once got a single Dem vote, and then he expected to be 'saved' after trying to impeach Biden and falling on bended knee to the insurrectionist who orchestrated a soft coup d'etat against the democratically elected President. The second nominee endorsed the entire scheme. The third nominee, was the insurrectionist's chief henchman. Provide a candidate who a few Dems might vote for and give the party someone to safely consider.
