Gaetz saying he wishes McCarthy was still a Congressman because McCarthy would vote for the impeachment. But McCarthy was "selfish" for taking his marbles home. WTF. McCarthy is selfish? Not, I probably shouldn't have ousted a guy who could have rally the GOP?
Hilarious coming from the guy who ousted McCarthy. Even George Santos has to be laughing at the irony.
MTG: The Democrats were sneaky in hiding the fact that Al Green will vote. So it wasn't fair. Dems are not playing fair. WTF? You have the HOUSE MAJORITY. You should ALWAYS assume that the other side will vote in a block. It's not like Green's vote really matter...you lost 4 GOP votes. WTF.
Sneaky? It is literally Green's job to vote, and he showed up. This is MTG in a nutshell: They timed the vote for Al Greene's absence and it backfired, then she acts like it was a dirty trick for him to show up.
Will the average conservative finally see that the GOP having lost their way? Or will it be same vote as usual come November? So sad for this country.
The dysfunction in Congress is partially due to gerrymandered districts, but it is also driven by personality, motivations, and rewards.
Being contrarian and the cause of gridlock generates attention. Wherever Gaetz goes, there’s a crowd of reporters. The media’s job is to cover the news, and Gaetz made news with his plan to get rid of the speaker of the House. The media amplifies the loudest, and sometimes most partisan and abrasive voice. Voters and Americans incentivize aggressive behavior with their clicks, donations, and votes (or lack thereof). If more people rewarded civility and voted in primaries, we’d have a more civil Congress.
