NOW former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy chatting with reporters outside the Speaker of the House Office….
Correct me IF I’m wrong, but did Kevin McCarthy, as Speaker of the House of Representatives once, not have complete control of the Republican Conference or not?
And yet we’re told well no not exactly. I mean yeah we’re in charge but we’re not really in charge. We just sit there, really, with our hands folded and pose for pictures like Santa Claus with snotty-nosed kids from Iowa and New Hampshire on summertime visits with Mom and Dad to D.C. and that’s really it. It just, the Speakership just looks really good on a resume for Fox News or CNN talking head punditry and sophistry, maybe!? I dunno.
Whatta spineless pile of dog poop man splainin’ if ever! Just, I mean, how stupid do we look to you people in Permanent Washington and New York City Media Markets anyway?
This is such tripe and rock gut my friends it’s unbelievable! Yet they spin it as such and pronounce and prognosticate as if Matt Gaetz and Company are all members of like an Al Qeda Martyr Squad and all are here ‘on a suicide mission’. The ‘bazooka caucus ready to blow things up around here’. REALLY? Where’s Gen. Dave Petraeus or Gen. Tommy Franks to lead Coalition Forces, don’t forget ‘Dubya’ and the ‘Mission Accomplished’ sign!
I mean my Good God.
Everything, absolutely everything that was done in concern of Kevin McCarthy and his ouster was legitimate and completely above board.
Kevin McCarthy is out because all he really wanted to do was to be Speaker In Name Only or SINO. Shake hands, slap backs and butts, cut deals and go play golf for the rest of the year.
Kevin McCarthy is out because he’s a used car salesman in $5,000 suits and $500 haircuts. And I hate him for it! Just like I HATE used car salesmen.
