Did you see his stupid press conference where he tried to strong arm the repubs voting against him by saying they were holding up aid to Israel? This is going to run and run isn't it?

You think he’d just resign to spend more time with other people’s children 

I thought that was Gaetz.

They all look the same

Reading that he has just lost a secret rep ballot, is no longer the nominee and the whole process is FUBAR

You love to see it

Sort of. This could end up like Teresa's endless brexit permutation votes and that didn't end well for the country. They were talking about nominating Trump for speaker but was against the current rules, which they can change. 

But can they change the rules when the House has no Speaker …

A House full of Republicans and they can't elect a leader? Anyone sensible and moderate probably doesn't want to stand.

But can they change the rules when the House has no Speaker …

These are republican party rules so yes. Kind of like 1922 committee rules. 

A House full of Republicans

They have a tiny majority, hardly full. 

and they can't elect a leader

They hate each other, they're as factional as the tozzas.

I'm struggling to name one, but this is probably true. 

Why doesn't a moderate stand with the Dem votes and a few of the less loony Republicans?

Same reason we never got a semi soft brexit vote through. Nutters. 

Dems aren’t going to vote for a Republican; if the Republicans want a moderate a few of them can vote for Hakeem Jeffries.

Bear in mind as well that the only reason there is a Rep maj is that egregious Rep gerrymandering in FLA was upheld by a Trump appointee while equally egregious Dem gerrymandering in NY was struck down by an Obama appointee. So fvck the Republicans and let them keep looking stupid in front of the whole country.

It gives them effective control though.  The speaker will know any Trumpian bullsh1t and they're out on their arse.
