Gaetz will vote McCarthy and hand him the single vote win

[Marius25]

Gaetz said on Fox there is nothing else McCarthy can offer, he already gave it all away, and Gaetz called him Speaker-designate.

So Gaetz flipped. And he's the only vote McCarthy needs.

1. Probably The Plan All Along nt

2. So now Gaetz owns Kevin's sad, sorry ass?

[Marius25]

3. The treason caucus owns him, yes.

[Ocelot II]

4. Kevin was always going to be owned by somebody.

[dweller]

5. He thinks he's a powerful player

when he’s just a puny pedophile


✌🏻

[Takket]

6. "Speaker Gaetz"

[G_j]

7. yep

lol

[SCantiGOP]

8. With Gaetz, Santos and Trump

as the face of the Republican Party, how can we not control 90% of the House?

[FoxNewsSucks]

9. They cheat, and it works.

Certain Senate Democrats opposed legislation that would have put an end to republicon vote cheating and stealing.

[Mr.Bill]

10. What would be funny is

Gaetz is just enough of a shithead to not do it.

[Kennah]

12. Definitely a Butthead move

[Mr.Bill]

18. Called it.

He still may change his vote, but he's enjoying the camera time.

Edit. Vote closed. Gaets is the shithead of the day. A position that he wears well.

[CoopersDad]

11. I does appear that he stepped out to play to return later.

"No vote yet".
They're past the Gs.
I hope Kevin fails but it does look like Matt is setting it up for drama.

[Kennah]

14. Gaetz musta been seriously threatened

[G_j]

13. top troll

[nolabear]

15. They've set it all up to give Gaetz the deciding vote.

He’s going to be insufferable.

[nolabear]

16. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!

Gaetz (so far) with the knife.

[ornotna]

17. Not tonight

[Greywing]

19. Gaetz, Boebert and Goode have all said the will note vote for

McCarthy under any circumstances. He voted present and I think that will be as much as he will do.

[Polybius]

20. For the first time, I actually feel bad for McCarthy

Goetz promised to vote for him and now he does this? What a major league asshole.

[onenote]

21. Turns out not to be the case.

[Beautiful Disaster]

22. Not so fast. It's happening.

[onenote]

23. Looks like Gaetz wasn't the deciding vote.

Per the New York Times, the tally is 216 McCarthy, 212 Jeffries, 6 (including Gaetz) voting present. In short, Gate's vote for McCarthy (or even his voting for someone and not voting "present&quot wasn't necessary.
