He won the first stage of the speaker of the House vote. Then the bad news started pouring in.

        Matt Gaetz is even money, MTG is 2/1, Boebert 1/2, weirdly Nancy Pelosi is the best odds at 1/4.5

          Ate those odds for “running” for the seat or actually getting support? Because no fucking way will they rally around Matt “technically never charged for sex trafficking minors” gaetz.

            Was a joke about the odds for nominating Trump for speaker, probably a bad one but I made myself chuckle

        They already tried voting for him in the first speaker’s race in January. Not a chance in hell he’d get enough votes either way

        pretty sure the 14th would have something to say about that.

            Then Gaetz gave a speech about how it’s a serious nomination and everyone should vote trump the next time…
