@DoRightMars FINALLY, someone is starting to get it. This is a huge part of the job. Most congressman have to fundraise just for their seat and they hate it. If you're the speaker, you have to do this constantly and travel to do it
@wyzhir@MsWinterrrr My point is that it's a terrible idea to have someone who doesn't want the job being picked because it can lead to bad decision making and can cost democrats the house.
@wyzhir@MsWinterrrr He was a terrible speaker. The only legislation they passed was the laken rily act which was right after the election and the big beautiful bill that didnt need to get by the filibuster. Other than that, they didn't accomplish anything.
@Jennyjinx@teamhakeemhq@RepDebDingell The argument is BS. If democrats didn't retake the house, yall would have blamed him. You're basically saying if we win, he didn't have anything to do with it. If he loses, it's his fault. That's why no one else wants the job
@StLouisVI@NateSilver538@jessesingal Leftist have to learn how to run primaries against establishment players. If you can only win if someone doesn’t run, how do you expect to beat the other side
@NicholsonApple@josecanyousee no you haven't. You've been told, but you won't accept. Nobody else has the skill set and its not an on the job training type of job. Also, no one else can get 218 or even want the job but you wont accept that.
@NicholsonApple@josecanyousee there's no response that yall will accept. You won't accept that no one is actually challenging him and asking the question why and also why progressives are supporting him.
@saikatc@LeftLaneBlaine That only happened because republicans had 220 seats. It only took 3 to tank him. Hakeem will have 260. He would need to lose 43. Thats not happening
@vixmarin@ocjack3100@taydream89 If he gets primaried that person will get crushed. The problem that yall are struggling with is that the job is a very thankless job and most dont want it. They prefer to chairmen of powerful committees.
@vixmarin@ocjack3100@taydream89 Because yall are dumb. Yall want the jobs to be something its not. No matter how much yall want someone different, no one else is challenging them and you are retarded if you want someone who doesn' want the job. I promise no one will put their hat in the ring
@vixmarin@ocjack3100@taydream89 You need 218 votes. The Congressional black caucus has already said they are only voting for Hakeem Jeffries. They have enough votes to tank anyone else. None of yall are ready to accept that
@vixmarin@taydream89 All my assertions are correct. Leadership elections are on 11/18. If they haven't put their name in by now, it's too little too late. Nobody wants this job.
@reesetheone1 That's the wrong question. You need to ask who actually wants the job. I don't understand how people haven't realized no one is even challenging Jefferies or Schumer
@jenelaina@WokeMaelle What do yall not understand? NOBODY IS CHALLENGING HAKEEM. NOBODY ELSE WANTS THAT JOB. ITS VERY DIFFICULT AND MOST WANT TO BE CHAIRMEN OF A COMMITTEE. YALL HAVE A TERRIBLE UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE SPEAKER JOB IS
