After 21 days of infighting and chaos, the House GOP\u2019s latest nominee for speaker lasted less than five hours before Trump torpedoed his nomination, leaving the Chaos Conference leaderless once again. To call out the continuing clown show, the DNC brought more clowns to the MAGA circus on Capitol Hill to remind hardworking Americans who\u2019s responsible for the neverending chaos that\u2019s paralyzed the People\u2019s House. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the past three weeks of chaos have proven anything, it\u2019s that Donald Trump is still the ringleader of the House\u2019s GOP circus and that\u2019s not changing anytime soon. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Marjorie Taylor Greene<\/a>: \u201cThe GOP conference is changing, and it\u2019s changing to reflect America First, and Republican voters overwhelmingly support President Trump \u2014 and the GOP conference and the speaker of the House should do the same.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Politico<\/a>: \u201cBy Tuesday afternoon Trump called one person close to him with the message, \u2018He\u2019s done. It\u2019s over. I killed him.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just minutes later, Emmer officially dropped out of the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His withdrawal made Emmer the third nominee for speaker to have his hopes dashed for the most cursed job in politics. And it showed that while Trump may not be able to elevate someone to the post \u2014 his earlier choice for the job, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), also flopped \u2014 he can very well ensure that a person doesn\u2019t get it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Melanie Zanona, CNN<\/a>: \u201cNEWS: Emmer has DROPPED OUT of the speaker\u2019s race hours after becoming the nominee, per sources, as he faced fierce opposition from the Trump wing of party. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three weeks without a speaker and House GOP has now gone through THREE different nominees.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

With House Republicans and the party of Trump in charge, chaos and complete disarray continue to reign \u2014 instead of actual governing. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Politico<\/a>: \u201c\u2018Are we screwed?\u2019: Anguished House GOP seeks fourth speaker pick\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTheir third speaker pick in three weeks lasted barely four hours. Now, with their desperation on full display, Republicans are trying again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GOP Rep. Vern Buchanan<\/a>: \u201cIt\u2019s outrageous. It really is. It\u2019s outrageous. \u2026 People are upset back home \u2026 They just feel like we can\u2019t manage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Josh Bresnahan, Punchbowl News<\/a>: \u201c.@RepMaxMiller doesn\u2019t think anyone can get 217, including Mike Johnson\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Messenger<\/a>: \u201cNew Day, Same Problem: Latest House GOP Speaker Nominee, Emmer, Facing Failure\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haley Talbot, CNN<\/a>: \u201cThis is where we are.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Karen Tumulty, Washington Post<\/a>: \u201cThis comparison to what has been happening on Capitol Hill this past few weeks is a real insult to hard-working circus performers who are just trying to provide harmless fun, not keep the government functioning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bryan Metzger, Insider<\/a>: \u201cthis is deada\u2014 not funny any more. we are tired. please just choose someone\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
