The big brain move here is to elect Donald Trump as the new Speaker and impeach their way to the oval office.

Dusting off that 2020 boomer chud lore, huh?

[-] Elon_Musk@hexbear.net 42 points 11 months ago

That would be absolutely nuts!

You shut your mouth!

Please God let this happen. No House Rep can dare vote no to Trump.

Here's how Hillary can still win

Genuinely curious to see who they find as a replacement. GOP House Speaker is an absolutely thankless gig and I can't imagine anyone with a lick of sense is lining up for the position.

[-] janny@hexbear.net 19 points 11 months ago

honestly it'd be cool if they got trump up there

[-] daisy@hexbear.net 35 points 11 months ago

Perhaps some swaggering glory-hound grifter who really doesn't care about getting anything actually done.

Fortunately there's none of those types around!

Gaetz should do it. He represents core GOP values as well as those of the establishment Democrats. epsteingelion

Patrick McHenry is speaker pro tempore until someone pushes for an election of speaker

[-] FumpyAer@hexbear.net 10 points 11 months ago

But they literally can't do anything but vote for speakers until a speaker is elected by majority vote.

[-] Shinhoshi@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 11 months ago

Actually not true until a speaker election is called for because there is a speaker pro tempore

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

as long as he doesn't shake hands with the speaker anti tempore and cause a massive explosion, things should be fine

Bring in Kevin Sorbo. I want more opportunities to mock him.

[-] Bobby_DROP_TABLES@hexbear.net 44 points 11 months ago

Is Gaetz still getting investigated for pedo shit or did that sort of just fall off?

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 35 points 11 months ago

It just sorta fell off

Who could have possibly anticipated that?

The mad lad actually did it. Lmfao.

[-] YouKnowIt@hexbear.net 19 points 11 months ago

So what're the dems hoping to get out of this? Besides yet another way to do nothing I mean

[-] marx_mentat@hexbear.net 9 points 11 months ago

Surely the Democratic party isn't still running the same play they did in 2016 and hoping to boost their numbers by pushing the Republicans further right. Obviously that was bad, so they would never do that again right

[-] Barabas@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago

It is a pretty funny bit to plead for 'respectable' republicans and then help the right fringe of the republicans depose someone for compromising.
