Hilarious that Cruz thinks he can whitewash his complicity in MAGA's descent into constant culture war, grift and lawlessness.

Seriously? Cruz fucking lives for Culture wars. He's proud of it.

with the House Republicans underperforming for the first time in the Trump era

Yes, surely it has nothing to do with the president.

First, didn't the republicans underperform at the midway point of Trump's first term? And then again in the actual election?

Second, then why don't they fucking call for a vote? Did they slip in some rule saying they couldn't after the last fucking fiasco?

Remember the vote-a-rama last time they tried to replace a speaker? 

It's easier just to use discharge petitions and go around Johnson.

Yeah, that's what I was referencing by the "last fiasco."

Discharge petitions don't fix the leadership issue, and ineptitude, which is what Stefanik claims she wants to fix. If it's really a problem then call a vote.

There is no leader other than Trump, and that's the problem. He literally calls all of the shots for both the Executive and Legislative branches. Even when he wasn't president he controlled what the House did. He's pretty much the Speaker of the House in addition to being the President, and Johnson is simply the conduit for whatever he wants. 

So the problem is twofold for the GOP. First, they need to actually have a consensus on who to elect. Second, that person needs to be willing to be Trump's "errand boy" until they ultimately lose the House next year.

Then they can go back to doing what they do best, which is to simply oppose whatever the Democrats say and do with no ideas or throughs of their own (other than whatever Trump is posting on social media at that moment.)

I maintain that she is either the worst....or the best/freakiest...sex on the planet.  And there really is no "in-between" option.

I feel like that about every conservative woman that has that hair. It’s a specific look that a ton of the maga older women seem to have.

All Johnson does is what Trump wants. This feels more like Stafanik trying to position herself for leadership once Trump is gone. 

The problem is, Trump is both too stupid and too narcissist to even know what/stick with "what he wants."  What he wants is to win everything and feel good all the time.  So, he tells Mikey to do exactly what he tells him.  Mikey does that, and it doesn't work/win (because it was a stupid strategy to begin with).  Trump can't self-reflect and say "I can't blame Mikey, he did exactly what I asked . . . I guess my idea wasn't that good."  Nope.  He has to blame Mikey for the failure, even though what Mikey executed was Trump's plan, step-for-step.

This is Trump-petulance-driven, I agree with Bozo.

I'd say the Republicans have underperformed in every election since 2016 in which Trump wasn't on the ballot.  Even the 2022 "red wave" was pretty anemic.  Which may present some challenges for them going forward.  But, they still have the red state gerrymandering advantage in the House, the small state advantage in the Senate and electoral college, and of course SCOTUS.

If Johnson makes Trump looks bad, it doesn't fucking matter how big of a kiss ass sycophant Johnson is. Trump will take him down.

Yeah that gave me a false sense of security that the Democrats had survived the backlash from the inflation wave we got after the pandemic. But nope.

Except for the Epstein files.  Johnson tried to block it, but he couldn't control the entire caucus.  That's what Stafanik means about not being effective.

Maybe.  But that doesn't change the vote nor Trump's predictable response to it.

Yeah, Trump has a long history of stabbing his lackeys in the back when it suits him.  Nothing is ever Trump's fault, so Mikey is taking the fall for the House not being able to do what Trump wants.

But this is what bullies do- they have nothing but contempt for their toadies and put them against each other. They are afraid of conflict and send others to do their dirty work.  
Trump doesn’t really fuck with Thune because Thune is the boss of his chamber and doesn’t do dance to Trump’s tune except when it works for him and his backers.Trump was nice to Mamdani because Mamdani has authentic swag and Trump likes to be photographed with handsome winners who have good hair. 
Johnson is a short, nerdy, annoying kissass who people make fun of. He’s only interesting as long as he’s useful and he’s reached the limit of his utility. He will now be humiliated and discarded.

They always think they will be Salman, but they are really Mudasir.  It is inevitable, it is guaranteed.

By the way- I was told by a Texas Republican BMD that this is the reason Cornyn didn’t have any real chance of being Majority Leader. Thune is willing to take the heat when he needs to.
