4 thoughts on “Republicans nominate Steve Scalise to be House speaker

  1. This whole mess could be avoided if the Republicans would stop trying to appease the “Freedom Caucus” and nominate somebody that would work across the isle like a real functioning political party would.

    You would only need to pick up a dozen Democrats, but I know that goes against the whole “Own the Libs” philosophy. At the same time, Republicans in the House and Senate seem perfectly content at sabotaging the governments at every level, everything from blocking appointments of crucial diplomats, to hamstringing crucial military promotions, to just plain shutting down the house and the entire government.

    I assume to get the Republican votes needed the “one vote and your out rule” is still in place? Any bets on how long this Speaker will last?

    1. It’s intentional dysfunction, and it hasn’t been a real functioning political party for a decade.

    2. Hopefully a deranged leftist won’t try to assassinate him again, like one did a few years ago, who was a devotee of the “party of kindness, justice, empathy, and democracy”.
