1. Actively directed the violent attack on AMerica on Jan 6. America is broken.

2. I feel the same way about Jordan as I feel about TFG - Since he is following TFG's "orders"

Before the election I was meeting with old friends and I said that I'd sooner vote for the next person who drives by than TFG - and they agreed with me.

3. Does that mean he has the votes? ntp

4. No, he still needs 217 votes which he is unlikely to get - and that includes Democrats

He needs to be elected by the entire House, not just Republicans. He is only this week's choice by the Republicans.

5. I hope his run lasts long enough to air and reair his dirty secrets.

6. I don't think he stands a chance, he's way too controversial

But I also hope that his nomination stands long enough for all his dirty laundry (complicit in the insurrection) to be aired across the news.
