Lol there's messy and then there is the train wreck we all couldn't look away from in the Republican Party. Hopefully this is sorted out now! If Johnson does get elected we'll be net positive having him over McCarthy at least.

Wow, we went from McCarthy to Mike Johnson. This is so exciting. We could have had Jordan, Donalds, Trump, but we chose Mike Johnson. Who the hell is Mike Johnson?

We want to keep the Republican majority, but because of the betrayals of Speaker Johnson and now that he is the Uniparty Speaker, Republican voters will not vote for this again. We will lose the majority in 2025.
