The world IS on fire and they can’t govern.
This is what happens when inmates are handed the keys to run the asylum. Probably never been an act of consistent political cowardice — stretching out years since Trump took over the party — as egregious as this in American history.
All entirely predictable.

The only way I can see the GOP electing a speaker before a shutdown is of the stock markets really go to shit.
It's the only way these shit cunts feel any hurt.

History will not look back on this period of US political history with anything but utter distain for those who refused to govern because they couldn't get their own way. Those people are not, and should not be elected public servants.
Those people are self-serving cunts.

Reminds me of a basket-case where the lunatics have taking over the asylum.

Where are the young reformers in US politics? It just seems to be old rich men at the moment
There’s quite a lot but name recognition is king in US politics and it takes a long time to build up in a country that large.
Everyone knows AOC, but there’s Ruben Gallego, Katie Porter, Corey Bush.
Basically this lot -

But also Hakeem Jeffries is pretty young and he’s the leader of the Dems in congress.
