Republicans dropped Rep. Jim Jordan on Friday as their nominee for House speaker, making the decision during a closed-door session after the hard-edged ally of Donald Trump failed badly on a third ballot for the gavel.
The blocked-House impasse deepening, Republicans have no realistic or workable plan to unite the fractured GOP majority, elect a new speaker and return to the work of Congress that has been languishing since hard-liners ousted Kevin McCarthy at the start of the month.
Why was this clown even in the running. This party is insane.

And another Trump endorsement fails spectacularly.
This is good, seeing that piece of shit gain any power would have been stressful. Seeing him rejected by his peers feels nice.
Putting on jacket almost fooled me. I wrote to my congressman surely it helped.
Wait, I’m confused. I thought he wasn’t going to run a 3rd time? But he still ran and lost, and now the GOP is dropping him entirely from the running?
Secret ballot - they were finding out what representatives really think about him by not doing it in public
Mike Garcia (R-CA) is pretty liberal, Dems. Why not all vote for him next round, see what happens?
I can’t wait to see how they try to blame the Democrats for this.
these chimps have no idea where to find Square One… they’re trying to drag everyone else down to Square Zero with them…
I guess all those coordinated death threats backfired.
