What is really happening in D.C.

Hi Tim, if debates are so great, why did you refuse to debate your Congressional opponent this last election?

Timmy is concerned that the constituents that voted for him are upset regarding his McCarthy vote so he will use the gaslighting tactics. Btw Burchett didn’t you refuse to DEBATE your opponent during the election season? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

So... not being able to elect a Speaker after ten rounds of voting is actually good, and uniting behind a Speaker candidate is bad because that's like China. Got it, thanks Tim.

Time to do what the people of Tennessee want and it's NOT MCCARTHY

Tennessee deserves congressmen that listen to us. Time for change. NO MCCARTHY

A valiant attempt to spin that chaos is good and knowing what you stand for as a party is bad. Every day this drags on is one more day conservatives can't do things that hurt Americans.

Thank you, @timburchett, for providing a clear and accurate perspective on this process. Debate is healthy. Transparency and accountability are healthy are necessary.

Change your vote!

Are you still voting for @kevinomccarthy ? Just checking for Patriots and your constituents. Need to know why you continue to vote against us.

Haha haha What ridiculous debate are you talking about? The GOP is in disarray and cannot elect a leader. Pelosi would never have let this sh.t show take place. You Burchett are gaslighting your constituents and hoping they believe the BS you are spewing.

What a wild spin zone the first half of this video. What incentive exists for the other side to help a fractured GOP elect a Speaker? If we still maintained the role as non-partisan it’d be one thing, but the Speakership has been extremely partisan for decades now.

Holding the phone camera at a different angle and growing a beard won't change the past or increase competence.

Your speaker will be weak, whoever he is. Party division is not a recipe for national success, but your party is filled with individual profiteers, who don’t care about anything but individual attention. Such a thirsty lot. Reap what you sow.

If this was the other side it would be an embarrassment..,, sorry but the spin doctor stuff gets old.

TENNESSEE REMEMBER MCCARTHY CALLS JANUARY 6 AN INSURRECTION AND BLAMED TRUMP

Great job president Biden on the excellent jobs report, well done.

Clown show Tim. Plain and simple. No way to spin it or interpret it to be anything else. At least 21 of the children are determined to have their own way no matter what it means for the rest. You don’t have enough team players to get anything done.

TN IS AGINST MCCARTHY

Not discussion. Discord over what should be about the easiest item to pass that your dysfunctional party is going to face. You guys aren’t in session that many days of yr. As of today, you’ve wasted 4% of that time in an arm wrestling tournament amongst yourselves.

Thank you! I do appreciate your integrity and your hard work. Please, no more McCarthy. 😬

What a disgrace Tim that the Republicans in the house cannot find an acceptable Speaker, instead of making themselves “The Party of Farce”!

never will iever vote for you again

Most accurate and even handed description I have heard in this situation. Thanks for taking common sense the DC.

Lame spin. Facts: Republicans are scrambling and can't find a way out of the huge mess that following Trump & MAGA garbage has created. The Democrats prove yet again that they can govern, while the Republicans yet again drive their 🤡 car in circles. @RepJeffries for Speaker!

Representative Burchett, You missed the first vote- why? Is it more “dramatic” to wait to be a late voter? Are you there yet? Explain.

Sir, this is a bogus spin. Any debate is taking place in backrooms, as usual. No telling what deals are being cut. The GOP has been hijacked by a minority, and as a result, the line of succession & national security are imperiled. This is BS. Constituent, 37932

Your party has no platform and no leadership so you try to spin this as a “good thing” and “that is what the founders wanted”. How sad!

Keep it up, thanks for the update.

If all these things are so good and what the Founding Fathers intended why hasn’t it happened in 100years?

Thanks for the update, Mr. Burchett. We know where McCarthy's loyalties lie and it is not for the US citizens. Say NO to McCarthy.

I wish you had never been elected to represent TN

Thank you for this thoughtful (and short!) video!
