If the GOP and their base are going to vote in ridiculous candidates who shouldn't be anywhere near Congress this is what is going to happen. You want unserious people in that position? Here ya go.

This is the best marketing ever for the next election for the Democrats.

Lol Democrats all voted nay, wanted the clown show to continue.

Something must have changed and McCarthy now thinks he has the votes.

MSNBC said that Gaetz is voting for Kevin now. I wonder what Kevin gave up for that.

Looks like Gaetz can now still vote against McCarthy but he can finally become Speaker.
