I did my investigation on McCarthy. Why after failing for the 6th vote did he not only break down but also text a republican who didn't vote for him and state:
"I'm ready to fund a long time war." ? Yeah, I am proud of those 20 republicans who refused to vote for McCarthy.

No more foreign wars! No more over spending!

[antoniojamison]

Mccathy doesn't represent anyone but himself.

[jacquelyndiamond]

Jordan should be Speaker, or Hawley, Gaetz but McCarthy turned on the people before.

[lucylee]

We sure don’t need McCarthy with California’s way of thinking or getting the job done!!!

[johnmichaelson]

When Matt Gaetz is saying Kevin McCarthy is the biggest Alligator in the swamp then McCarthy has problems.

If I was a betting man, I would bet everything I own that congress WILL pass another omnibus bill like they just did “12 days ago”. And the Republicans that stood up and clapped for that line will be voting for it. There is nothing more meaningless than the words of a politician (regardless of party)

McCathy, cannot be a speaker of the house . He can be a leader of kook members of the leader again and should fade away. He should know what he did past . He looking own profit, will do something again.

We should know better. Country Needed new face and name - can be be ready for right person for the people’s and country. Need change !

Love the MAGA TEARS FROM YESTERDAY AND TODAY !

I agree, when I saw the people standing and clapping and cheering, I felt a sense of pride to be an American. I hope and pray that the people in office do right by America.

No, 1 question I am seeing on You Tube is why would Trump support McCarthy as speaker.

[Jimfromearthoo]

Jim Jordan should be speaker no doubt!
Just listen to him speak with passion!
McCarthy is like a puppet.
Where was he during the Trump
Presidency?

[dugger]

Mr. Jordan please take the speakership, this country needs to too!

[duckhanhpham]

Now is 6th round humiliating defeats for McCarthy, if i was him I will throw myself under bus because I am embarrassing and humiliating.

[NoTimeForThatNow]

Of everything Jordan outlined as necessary to get done, none of it will go anywhere if McCarthy becomes leader.

[jetflaggoodknitemusic]

WE NEED A MAN WITH INTEGRITY, THAT'S JIM JORDAN, who could say otherwise... No crooks, no puppets!!!

[thebreakroom]

Him preaching about mccarthy who can "fight" yet mccarthy criticized trump one time and then immediately went to his knees to kiss the ring. Mccarthy is one if the biggest cowards in congress.

[cascooter]

How humiliating. Will it be Stefanek or scalise that stick the knife in?

[alichamchugh]

George Washington didn't want the job either Jordan. Your country calls...step up.

[davidhoward]

A ringing endorsement and a big vote of confidence.... not
