Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is so committed to opposing Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s flailing House speaker bid that he offered to resign from Congress Thursday night if a faction of Democrats were to vote with Republicans to allow a more “moderate” member of the GOP to take the gavel.

How delicious would it be to see a moderate coalition form and show those clowns the door on 1\6.

Ain't happening, but some Dems could always cross the aisle and do something like that...

To be fair, he said he would resign as a way of saying the democrats would never do that.

Also to be fair, he voted for Trump at the same time Trump is endorsing McCarthy.

Also, how am I older than Gaetz? I still think I'm 25 (but feel like I'm 40). Wait, I'm as old as Mayor Pete? Ok, I should stop looking things up.

That's what I was inquiring about in the other thread. Seems to be in the Dems best interest to get a McCarthy Round 1 speaker in, and not the McCarthy Round 11 that includes a bunch of concessions to the Gaetz wing.

It only gets worse. Stop now.

If only he would actually resign, I think the Dems might do it.
