A win after only 15 rounds of voting? Why, it's the most impressive display of party unity in US history! McCarthy & the GOP will rue the day he became Speaker. The extremists on the right aren't finished. They will make his tenure a nightmare. McCarthy stands for nothing & he's traded away his ability to stand for anything. McCarthy will be a weak speaker of a weak majority whose contribution (besides an appetite for chaos that is whetted by these shenanigans) will be limited to obstruction and performance art. The speaker position has been devalued , demoted and become ceremonial for McCarthy. We've become a country of right fighters, loud mouths, & bullies, content to see our "opponents" fail instead of working together for the good of the country. How many 2024 Democratic ads are going to feature the scene of Rep. Mike Rogers (AL) lunging at Rep. Matt Gaetz while having his mouth covered with another Repubs hand? Advertising and fundraising gold there. if the GOP can't even work together, what makes any Repub think they can work for us? Fitting that the House GOP picked 1/6 to embarrass themselves again. In their zeal to leverage their extremely small numbers, the GOP rebels in the House have seriously weakened their party.   Sidenote: Of the large group of presidential election deniers--only one R congressperson went to  the steps of the Capitol to pay respects this morning to the officers injured & maimed on 1/6--yet on McCarthy's election, they chanted "USA, USA. "Wow.
