Multiple members emerged from the House GOP’s speaker forum on Tuesday saying they don’t see either candidate being any closer to having the votes needed to secure the gavel on the floor.

Driving the news: “No one is close to 217,” Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.) said after Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La) and Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) pitched members on why they believe they should be the next speaker.

    Honestly, if the GOP continues to shit the bed so consistently and thoroughly, I see a nonzero chance that a handful of non-psycho GOP reps might just throw in with Hakeem Jeffries and give the house leadership to the Democrats. But that’s contingent on, like, 5 or so Republicans actually putting the country over their party, which is a coin toss at best.

      Based on the evidence so far, until they prove otherwise the coin has the same face printed on all sides including the edge.
