We’re being told this is insane that the election for speaker has gone four rounds. Supporters of Kevin McCarthy call it “embarrassing.”
Dan Crenshaw has called Republicans who oppose McCarthy “traitors.”
Yet, Election Day being turned into election season right before our eyes is just the new normal. A week of ballots just turning up in “misplaced” boxes a week after the election is just the way we do things now.
If you consider the election for speaker “embarrassing” but not our new general election voting system, then you’re probably not actually mad about the system, you’re just upset you’re not getting what you want.
I’ve come to believe that many of the Republicans in leadership positions don’t want to win. They don’t want the majority. They don’t really care about fiscal responsibility, the sacredness of life, or in protecting the border.
None of the Republican leadership have fought against mail in ballots in drop boxes or questioned the integrity of our elections. But now that Kevin McCarthy might not be speaker, well that’s just too darn much. These people are all ’bout power.
They don’t care about you, your vote, or your issues. It’s time for all of them to go. Drain the swamp. I don’t even know if what we’ll get will be better but it can’t be worse.
