House Leader is a dead end career wise, but there's not a real winning move for the GOP, granted I'm sure blowing up the country by not passing a budget sending the economy into shambles would be a win for them.

It would be hilarious to watch them go to war with themselves if they also didn't have the power to destroy the world economy through inaction...

The GOP had no plans for this. They expected to have a 20-30 seat majority in the House, along with control of the Senate. But, they ended up not getting either of those things, and now they can't even elect a Speaker of the House. This is what the House will be like for the next two years.

It gives me great joy to see the Republican party eating its own tail like this. Might we be seeing them begin to go the way of the Whigs? I hope so, because they deserve it.

It won't happen and shouldn't happen, but it would be hilarious if the Dems nominated Liz Cheney or Adam Kinzinger and one of the actually won. Trumps head would explode not to mention the idiots not voting for McCarthy.

You know, by this point, someone with actual leadership skills would have recognized that they can't win and stepped aside for someone else. It should have been clear from Day 1 because they should have known if they had the votes before Congress even convened.

But it's clear that McCarthy doesn't have leadership skills.

One problem is there isn’t a real compromise candidate, otherwise they would have been put forward. When a crazy party has such a slim lead half a dozen of the most crazy members they can’t even get past step one, there’s not much they can do in terms of one party deals.

That isn’t to say McCarthy is skilled in any way though.
