The only positive about a Trump / Mace ticket is that at some point, he would make a comment about her “cans”.

And his base would love it

From time to time videos by the Lincoln Project: "Last Week in the Republican Party" have been posted here. Here's a similarly themed video, the first in what will apparently become a series, by MidasTouch, that's pretty...sad:

MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas shows a montage reel of all the lowlights from Republicans and Trump that occurred this past week in a new weekly series brought to you by MeidasTouch.com

The rampant baby executions?

Damn you, Biden!

Nikki Haley blames Republican chaos in the House on President Biden.

this is on congress, all of ‘em…

$31 TRILLION in gross nat’l debt

that equates to ~$93K and change per US citizen

but at least Japhy’s taxes got cut

Some people say that Jim Jordan is only 5-10 votes from being elected speaker tomorrow.

One can only imagine the commercials that democrats will be running against the 18 republican members of congress were elected in districts Biden won in 2020.

The mind wanders:

Election denier.

Subpoena denier.

Guy who texted Chief of Staff Mark Meadows late on Jan 5, 2021, with instructions for how VP Pence could plausibly violate the constitution on Jan 6th.

Knew what was going to happen ahead of time and called Jan. 6 the “ultimate date of significance” on Dec. 16, 2020.

et al

Think about Jim Jordan being third in line for the presidency.

Does anyone think he could be trusted with top secret information that he'd no-doubt have access to as speaker?

I’m more concerned about what resourceful MAGAs might think to cook up. Especially if we get to this time next year and it’s apparent that Trump has an inside straight draw, at best.

Roll call vote coming up in a few minutes to see if Jim Jordan, i.e., Donald Trump's stooge, (I know, that doesn't narrow it down much, does it?), is elected speaker. Rumor has it he will fail on the first vote, and then the horse-trading amongst the Peaceful Transitions of Power are for Pussies party will ensue before more voting.

How could we not expect budget-ceiling and close-the-government-down drama to increase, if Trump/Jordan are in control of the house?

Anyone know why Jordan received the highest civilian honor a president can bestow, The Presidential Medal of Freedom, from Trump in a private ceremony at the White House, with no press in attendance?

(I have to give Trump credit, because I'd be too embarrassed for anyone to see it, too.)

Of course, because it's a roll call vote, it's public.

How will he who takes everything personally deal with republicans who are willing to go on the record voting against him/Jordan?

Hint: The answer rhymes with "temporary".

The first vote isn't over but Jordan won't have 216, so there will be at least one more vote.

The funniest part is that Hakeem Jeffries got more votes than Jordan in the end.

They were expecting 6 to 8 Rs voting against Jordan. 20 voted against him. Jeffries has 12 more votes than Jordan.

Sad to think that if Jim Jordan does become speaker, it's going to cost a significant number of people their jobs because,

the 2024 campaign commercials write themselves:
