Just to emphasize: Mike Johnson is an antivaxxer, an anti-abortion forced bither, he believes the job of poor women is to give birth to an infinite supply of low wage jobseekers, he is a climate change denier, he wants to cut Social Security + Medicare + Medicaid, and he’s a “Trump won!” Republican. And House Republicans just unanimously voted for him as Speaker of the House.
Please take note: there are no “moderates” in the Republican Party.

Jordan Reverses Himself and Will Push for a Third Speaker Vote
Here is the recap-
Republicans, continuing their tradition of playing stupid games and being shocked when they win stupid prizes, kicked Kevin McCarthy out of his post of Speaker of the House.
For context, Kevin McCarthy had a fucking awful time getting the job back in January, needing like 15 tries and a bunch of stupid placating and bootlicking the MAGA nuts. An incredible moment in US history. So many memes. Republicans almost getting into fist fights on the floor on the House. Embarrassing Chaos. and they STILL FUCKING KICKED MCCARTHY OUT. AFTER ALL THAT. (Probably because he compromised with Democrats to temporarily fund the government while they argued about the budget) Embarrassing.
They fire McCarthy with no backup plan. To be clear, this is intentional. The MAGA fuckers want to break the government. Also no one wants to be Speaker. It's an awful job.
Ok, so then they have to decide who will be the new speaker. Trump suggests Jim Jordan. There is a secret republican ballot. Jordan loses to some other guy (Scalise.) Ha.
Once it's time for the real vote (with the democrats and all)- unity shatters and Scalise can't carry the vote. He says he doesn't want it anymore.
So fine, Jim Jordan. Let's go.
He loses.
A bunch of Republicans hate him. He is suuuuper implicated in Jan 6 and is a scumbag.
He tries again.
He loses. Again. Worse than the first time. Hilarious. Humiliating.
Everyone is like "not this shit again. Can we just let the temporary speaker be the speaker until January so the House can like...function while the Republicans figure their shit out?"
Jim Jordan says he'll go along with this plan on TV. Because publically losing the Speaker vote multiple times is humiliating.
The MAGAs loose their FUCKING MINDS because this was a Democrat idea so its BAD. How DARE YOU WE JUST FIRED MCARTHY FOR COMPROMISING WITH THE DEMS.
Jim Jordan says FINE, I take it back. I'll try again.
We don't have a third vote scheduled.
It'd be funnier if the clowns weren't running OUR circus, ya know?

I know it’s hilarious to watch McCarthy lose again and again but it’s so sad watching everyone be on their phones bored as hell when my woman Cheryl Johnson (the clerk) has to ask everyone their votes and watch this same train wreck unfold infront of her 11 times in a row like 😬 She literally has to listen to them scream to please adjourn and then guess based on vibes if the nays have it 😭 This poor woman put her out of her misery
Anyways thoughts and prayers to Cheryl the unspoken hero 😌❤️
