Oh, please, Gaetz is not the guy. Don't be taken in by a showboat out for himself. Blowing something up without a rebuilding plan is not progress.

So you believe there's no difference between McCarthy and Mike Johnson? The "showboat" managed to get the flaming dems to shoot themselves in both feet by removing McCarthy to end up with Johnson. Johnson's plan for individual spending bills may just help to save the future.

I was stating my opinion of Gaetz. If Johnson is actually better than McCarthy, I'll be pleased.

Gaetz did do some showboating, but I now think it's what got him underestimated and was perhaps on purpose.

Washington politics has become a circus. ItтАЩs hard to get anything done anymore without some type of sideshow antics. Sad situation but Gaetz got something accomplished. I think Johnson is a good man. We shall see.

My thoughts exactly. I hope my hope is not misplaced.

Gaetz the 'playboy?'

Are you pushing the lies spouted by the guy he hung out with a couple of times after they were both newly elected? The criminal now in prison who tried fabricating some stuff about Gaetz in order to try and make a deal with prosecutors? He's in prison along with the 2 criminals who tried to extort Gaetz senior by threatening Gaetz Jr with those same lies. Are you now a suspect along with every co-worker you've ever hung out with a couple of times before you realized they were losers? The then-17-yr-old has been interviewed and harassed when she said she's has never seen or met Gaetz, yet the losers keep pursuing her to try and get her to lie. Yes, that Gaetz.

HOW did Gaetz get out of this?

His father has money!

The dems received $70 million via SBF, yet with all this mullah they were not able to bribe the young woman to lie. Instead, they tried to extort Gaetz Sr., one of the criminals going to prison for his 3rd prison vacation since 2006. https://www.newsweek.com/stephen-alford-sentenced-25m-gaetz-family-extortion-attempt-1736022

There was a plan. The new Speaker garnered 100% of the Republican votes.

We seem to be stuck in a pattern of choosing who blows up what, not choosing people with plans. And God forbid we get any more "progress". We're already drowning in it.
