It has been over 100 years since the majority in the House would not elect a speaker on first vote. Now it has happened twice in 2 years MAGA.

Hakeem Jeffries would make a fine Speaker. Smart fellow.

Norman and Self caved. Massie(KY) held firm against Johnson, who was re-elected by a slim 218-215 vote.

Johnson was elected House Speaker in the first round of voting, most likely because President-elect Trump campaigned on his behalf. Massie strongly supports a conservative agenda.
Sorry folks, there is no bad news for Trump in today's vote despite all your wishful thinking. Nothing to see here. Move along.

There will be massive bad news for Trump before the next four years are up. I look forward to it.

On the contrary. Reagan would be very happy Republicans just won BIGLY.
P.S. If Jeffries is smart I'm the Easter Bunny.

Democrats not only couldn’t stand, they don’t even applaud when Republican Speaker Johnson promises a secure border.
Make no mistake. This election was the salvation of America, and had we lost it, she would be gone forever.
Do not trust the left for anything.
Ever.

He probably thinks that's dumb. Republicans disagree and debate each other. Dems fall in line and never disagree with each other.

Of course he is. He doesn't share your America Last worldview.

Johnson being speaker is probably good for the democrats.
01-06-2025, 01:24 PM
Johnson as Speaker is probably good for all Americans. I would like to see a more conservative Speaker, but there are still not enough conservative House GOP members to allow a conservative Speaker to be effective.

He probably won't be there long anyway. Trump just wanted to make sure it didn't affect the certification on the 6th.

House conservatives will determine if Johnson remains Speaker. The GOP is a big tent party. House members are not controlled by party oligarchs like the Democrats are. If Johnson doesn't keep conservatives happy, Trump won't be able to save him.
