You're viewing a single thread.
Jeffries needs 5 more votes to win.
A Republican nomination needs 217.
To be fair, he seems pretty clear that the he is willing to direct the caucus to vote for an agreed upon republican, rather than seek the speakership himself.
Right. Republicans would never agree to a Democrat speaker. They would rather watch the country burn down than to do that.
Now there is an endless list of other things they may need to agree to for Democrats to partner.

You don't know that. Their entire house is broken. Dem's need five. Its 100% on the table.
You think there are currently FIVE R's in the House who are willing to put the well being of this country before their party?
HA HA.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh you mistake me.
I think there are 5 R's who are dumb enough to make a show of things by voting for a Dem, just to spite their opponents within the party. Its always the dumbest people who think they are the smartest.
I quite literally think that some R's would actually cut off their nose to spite their face to "own" their perceived opponents.
I put nothing past them and leave everything on the table.
Deal with each of them individually and don't let them know that there are four more.
Well, when you put it that way, it sounds plausible.
