America could do worse—much worse.
“Representative Jim Jordan, an Ohio Republican, could potentially become the Speaker of the House if the GOP takes back the majority in the 2022 midterms,” so pontificated a bleeding-heart radical liberal gaggle on MSNBC panelists yesterday. This from msn.com.
Yes, this article was originally a product of the radical left, however, with the crap removed it provides an exceptional example of one of perhaps many fears the democrat-communists are nursing at this point in time.
In 2018, Jordan, a staunch supporter of President Trump, said he would run to be House Speaker, but Republicans lost (likely had stolen from them) the majority in the midterms that year.
Representative Kevin McCarthy of California has held onto his position as GOP House leader since 2014, but many have speculated that he could face a challenge from Jordan or another Republican if the GOP takes back control of the legislative chamber after the midterms.
“On the House side, if you do get a Speaker Jim Jordan, a Speaker Marjorie Taylor Greene, let’s be fanciful here, a Speaker Madison Cawthorn—it is not going to happen—but if the House, if Republicans take over the House…all hell’s going to break loose and they could file articles of impeachment against the president and the vice president,” MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart said during The Sunday Show.
Capehart’s remark came after panelist and former GOP strategist Tara Setmayer predicted that McCarthy would be unable to maintain his position as the Republican House leader going forward. Setmayer suggested Jordan would be a top contender for the role of House speaker if the GOP takes control of the legislative chamber.
“I mean, all hell will break loose, nothing will get done [if Jordan becomes Speaker],” responded panelist Renee Graham, a columnist and associate editor at The Boston Globe. “This will be a vengeance fantasy that Quentin Tarantino could not have dreamt of. It is going to be payback time.”
“It is always about amassing power for the sake of power,” Graham cautioned, although, obviously revealing a line from the democrat-communist playbook.
Most political analysts project that Republicans are favored to take control of the House and possibly the Senate in the 2022 midterm elections.
Recent historical precedent has shown that the party of the president in power generally loses a substantial number of seats in the first midterms after they take office. Polls have also shown that Republicans are currently favored by voters to control Congress, as [the current occupant’s] approval rating has tanked over the past several months as well.
Although McCarthy has publicly expressed his goal of becoming House Speaker, the top Republican has faced significant criticism from within his caucus.
Staunchly pro-Trump GOP House members have expressed frustration that he has not taken action to remove [discreditable RINO] Representatives Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois from the House Republican Conference.
Meanwhile, the likes of Kinzinger and Cheney have criticized McCarthy for maintaining positive relations with President Trump.
Again, this article is a reveal of democrat-communist fears more so than conservative intentions. However, many on the Republican side of the fence believe Congressman Jim Jordan is what is needed to take back our country from the misdirection of the left.
What say you Def-Con News readers?
God speed Conservatism.
