At this rate, the replacement will be able to vote for speaker.

You think this will go on for a month? There will likely be a major news story by then to cause GOP to want to wrap this up. Like if there was a major storm in a city or a mass shooting where a bill needs to be passed to address it.

You mean the party that has voted against aid to be sent to cities after major storms and the party that consistently doesn't give a shit about mass shootings.

Are these fools even attempting to make a deal or are they playing a game of attrition? Cause I don't think the dissenters care how bad the GOP looks as long as they get their way.

The dissenters are purely dissenting, because they want to push the MAGA agenda further in their favor and don't actually care about compromising within their own party.

this not being a major news story (assuming it isn't already, i don't follow political news these days because there's never anything of value) is the exact problem with the US government

being literally unfunctionable should be A section from the moment this went on for more than two rounds

Dems and Republicans should get together and agree to impeach and remove the entire freedom caucus. I'm sure they can get 16 Republicans in the Senate on board for this.

The GOP made a faustian bargain for the power and influence that Trump brought, and now that he's gone, it's time to pay the price.

The establishment GOP is now caught in the predicament of needing to weaken their party in order to take it back from the MAGA nutjobs or embracing the chaos and risk getting molliwhopped by Dems in 2024. It's been beautiful to watch.

The 118th congress's term started on January 3rd, so there is no speaker at the moment.

Technically, there are no representatives in the house either. None of them have been sworn in because of this mess.

The Republicans would then lose control. Not that they actually have it now. Plus you can't impeach if you're not technically in yet. They are all elects at this point.

It's incredibly healthy for our government to be stuck in a state of purgatory because one group of racist assholes can't agree with the other group of racist assholes.
