  1. If Jordan pulls this off he and his supporters will have spent ALL of their political capital within the GOP to get it. There will be bills to pay.
  2. The word appears to be they are going to the floor come hell or high water and hope to shame the holdouts into supporting Jordan.
  3. Keep in mind those opposed to Jordan from heavily red districts will be most likely to cave to MAGA intimidation. It's down to about 15 GOP reps from "swing" or Biden districts to hold the line if they don't want Jordan. They literally have nothing to gain by supporting him and everything to lose if they do. Wagner's district is likely just "red enough" that she couldn't take the chance.
  4. Yeah I'm not sure if these are the key ones or if people are just fishing for clicks. If they are key ones then those will need to convince the other holdouts. They are cowards but Jordan is freaking loathed.
  5. Certainly precedent for that but I think the GOP knows that they can't have another debacle and that Jordan HAS to win this or else it's going to get ugly. So they are doing whatever it takes to get everyone on board before everything collapses. But I wouldn't be surprised if Jordan took the gavel, dipped it in gas, and set it on fire and said "NOW WE BURN IT ALL DOWN!"
  6. because Jordan is caving to their demands. if he follows through MAGA will stab him in the back. rinse and repeat.
  7. It was amazing that Stanford was throwing at him all second half. Here is supposedly their best player and they burned him consistently. This is a team that lost at home to Sacramento State.
  8. OK I'm going to hedge on the PL thing a bit after reading that Rob and Ryan spent 200 million euros to invest in a portion of the Alpine F1 team (through Maximum Effort Investments). If Maximum Effort Investments can grow then they should be able to easily do EPL.
  9. I watched the second half on replay and Stanford got back into it with big plays including back to back drives with 97 and 60 yard TD passes. CU was clearly rattled and lost discipline. They also exploited CU's weaknesses that have been there all season (and really picked on Travis Hunter who was getting tired) and Shadeur couldn't bail them out.
  10. the gag order hearing is going just WONDERFUL for Trump:
  11. Looks like some deals are being struck. (it's not a pressure campaign if you are offering to buy a guy's vote). They are desperate now.
  12. This speaks volumes and shows how tone-deaf this dude and his supporters are. He doesn't know anything else. He's a bully and now he's getting pushback and doesn't know what else to do. and this. These guys literally have nothing to lose by opposing him because he either needs to play ball in order to get their support or fail. The threats are meaningless as they have no different result (should they follow through) than if they supported him - which is they get voted out next year. And why do MAGA folk not consider this? Because they were told that the election was stolen so they don't believe there is such a thing as a "Biden district Republican"! Trump actually won those districts! What a mess and it's 100% of their own creation. Idiots.
