      I completely agree, it’s not the job of the Democratic Party to bail out the clowns in the GOP. Johnson made his bed, let him lie in it. If he doesn’t have enough votes to become Speaker due to the idolatrous worship of Elon Musk by the Freedom Caucus, that’s his problem. The American public deserves to witness the consequences of the complete inability of Republicans to govern.

      Strategically, wouldn’t it be worse for Mike Johnson to get help from Jeffries?

      They claim they have a mandate. They shouldn’t need help if that’s the case.

      Democrats have blown out the fuse that republicans have been relighting since Trump first day.. let them blow it up. Let the people see what the Republican end game is. The super rich trillionaires and the 99% so poor they are almost slaves

      Will be funny if it takes more times than last time to vote in a speaker

      Call me crazy…. but there’s part of me that thinks “we want Elon as speaker” is a smokescreen to get the dems to support Johnson

      “Sure he’s bad… but the other guy would be so much worse”

      Only took 6 weeks but “Musk the president” and all other combinations are set in people’s mind and memes.
      The next issue will be Trump will have the largest crowds on Inauguration Day.

      Other countries have power sharing agreements.

      Dems should only vote to save Mike Johnson if they get something of substance. Republican speaker’s promises are worth nothing, we’ve been through this already with Kevin McCarthy.

      Given how close it is, I’ve had a fantasy of a few moderate republicans (if such a thing exists) deciding on only having one term and voting out Johnson and voting in someone more middle of the road. Mostly as a middle finger to maga

      You know what could be ultimately funny. With such a thing margin, what if the Democrats flip a couple Republicans and make Hakeem Jeffries the Speaker of the House? Now that’s the chaos I would love to see if the GOP really tries to make Musk the Speaker.

    19. Gradicus on

      I feel like there’s a non-zero chance that Hakeem himself gets elected Speaker this time around.

      Wait. If they don’t have a speaker by Jan 6th, can they certify the results? Obviously they will vote somebody in to do this and then immediately spark a revote. But would be great if they couldn’t get their shit together by 1/6.

      Let the shitshow implode. Repeatedly. The best thing that could happen in the next 4 years is for Congress not to pass a single bill.
