Nancy Pelosi smacked the __ out of Matt Gaetz

[kpete]

Scott MacFarlane

Rep Matt Gaetz (R-FL) tells CNN, “By week’s end, (Kevin McCarthy) will either not be Speaker or he’ll be a Speaker serving at the pleasure of Democrats”

Rep Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) comes on next… and tells CNN this about Matt Gaetz, “You’re wasting your time on that guy because he has no sway in the House of Representatives”

1. You go gal!!

[2naSalit]

2. And THIS is why...

I am thankful she's not planning on leaving just yet.

She is the master of the cool burn. As her daughter once said, "...she will cut your head off and you won't even know you're bleeding." Or something very very close to that.

[liberalla]

28. What a good description -- "the cool burn"

Perfect! And yes she is the master!

[Dulcinea]

52. She ground him beneath one of her stiletto heels

and made him like it! Go Nancy go!

[ALBliberal]

3. National treasure. Shero. Endless respect for that lady.

[JI7]

4. Gaetz isn't serious about anything. He just wants drama becsuse he is bored

[leftieNanner]

15. Bored, yes

And polishing the turd so he can run for governor next time.

[roamer65]

5. McCarthy is already serving at the pleasure of House Democrats.

Pedo Matt wasting his time trying to oust him.

[wryter2000]

6. McCarthy pretty much emasculated him yesterday

If he somehow survives the motion to vacate, he will have rendered Gaetz completely irrelevant. Nancy told the Dems not to save him. I wonder what her thinking is. Trying to elect a new Speaker without Dem support would be more chaotic than last time.

[StoolPigeon]

9. I wonder

I wonder if the dems have made a deal to support a level headed republican.

[wryter2000]

33. That would be cool n/t

[lostnfound]

35. Oxymoron at this point. Is there one in the house?

[soldierant]

36. There might be. It's not impossible.

And it wouldn't be surpring if we didn't know about them. They would have been keeping a very low profile in this circus.

[DemocraticPatriot]

19. I doubt Gaetz even has a majority of the votes of his own caucus,

in a vote to vacate the speakership--- judging by the vote on the continuing resolution, which a majority of House Republicans supported.

Unless things change a lot, McCarthy likely survives any vote to vacate, without any Democratic votes against it being needed.

Gaetz makes a lot of noise, but most of his own party can't stand him. Some Republican House members are now saying that they would like to vote to expel him from the House for his ethics issues...

[wryter2000]

32. Anything to shut him up

MTG is now Kevin’s best friend. I doubt she’d join a vote to take his speakership away.

[ShazzieB]

41. Maybe...but I hear she was pretty pissed about the funding bill passing.

Little Margiekins wanted the government to shut down, and Kevvie didn't let it happen. He may not be one of her favorite people right now.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

49. Remember the original Speaker vote fiasco? Dems

who wanted break ranks and deal with McCarthy ( and not allow him to appease the " more crazies" to get elected) were told he didn't want to deal. Seemed like a bad move at the time.

[littlemissmartypants]

7. Is Matt Gaetz auditioning for VP?

[Shermann]

13. Can't realistically have a VP who feigns outrage more dramatically than the P

[littlemissmartypants]

14. ..

[ShazzieB]

42. True.

Chump will want someone quiet and pliable, the way Pence was (until J8). I don't think he'd pick a loudmouth loose Cannon Ike Gaetz.

[housecat]

31. VP of what?

[littlemissmartypants]

34. P01135809's running mate?

[whopis01]

47. Gaetz has the same problem DeSantis has there

He is from Florida and while that doesn’t prevent him from being Trump’s running mate it would cause a situation where Florida electors could not vote for both Trump and him as president and vice president.

[housecat]

51. hardly

[Shermann]

8. Gaetz may not be able to captain or sink the SS GOP

...but he does appear to have the ability to sway it.

[EmmaLee E]

11. Just rearranging ..

the deck chairs.

[multigraincracker]

10. Be nice to have Jack Smith look

into Gaetz child trafficking case.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

38. Excellent idea.

Gaetz is guiltily of a lot of crime. He just slithers out of it like his lord & master IDJT.

[TSExile]

39. Where would both be right now...

...but for papa's money?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

50. Was just wondering about that. Did that just die?

We get thrown in slammer for ripping a tag off a pillow. They get away with murder.

[Andy823]

12. All Matt does is

what trump tells him to do, and he is too stupid to realize he is being used, just like many others in the house.

[Martin68]

16. She's rightly insulting the entire party.

[republianmushroom]

17. Ms. Nancy, telling it like it is. Thank you.

[onecaliberal]

18. Gaetz is a pedophile. I'm glad she slapped his nasty ass down.

[CrispyQ]

20. "that guy"

[4lbs]

21. The Pelosi Clap....

At the 10 second mark he states "Cooperation, compromise, and the common good."


Ummm.....

[IronLionZion]

22. Maybe the opposite of speaker, like a court jester

[herding cats]

23. It's looking like Nancy knows Gaetz doesn't have the R votes to replace McCarthy.

If Nancy says Dems shouldn't help McCarthy and then says Gaetz has no sway in the House of Representatives, she's been counting votes and I trust her math.

[TexLaProgressive]

29. She has a gift for vote counting.

[randr]

24. If this were to have happened when he was counting votes for the Chair

We would be in a far different world. He would have been credited with saving the GOP.

[bdamomma]

25. Speaker Pelosi

knows a jerk when she sees one. Matt Gaetz what about his pedophile charges???? You don't hear about that anymore.

[SWBTATTReg]

26. Ah, Nancy! I love her! She's witty, quick to respond appropriately, with just the right level of

sarcasm.

Someone should put out a book on her witty remarks and statements, they alone would make reading interesting.

[Iggo]

27. Matt Gaetz fucks children.

Edited depending on venue of course, but that should be the answer whenever anyone is asked about Matt Gaetz.

[Ziggysmom]

30. Gaetz is just a spoiled little boy used to getting his way. Just like he was never charged for his

2008 DUI because of daddy's intervention.

[czarjak]

37. Alternative Facts are still winless long-term.

[Turbineguy]

40. Gaetz should run for governor of Florida.

[W_HAMILTON]

43. Matt Gaetz: pissed at McCarthy working with Democrats to keep the government open.

Also Matt Gaetz: willing to work with Democrats to oust McCarthy.

I'm so tired of these fucking crybabies in Congress.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

44. That's a lot to smack out

[Major Nikon]

45. AOC had another great line on CNN

When asked if the Democrats should come to the aid of McCarthy’s speakership she said the Democrats have no interest in saving the GOP from themselves.

[Beachnutt]

46. Stand back and let em slug it out..

And let Hakkeem Jeffries be the announcer.

[Danascot]

48. My understanding is that the GOP

won't have enough votes to elect a new speaker on their own; that some Dem votes will be needed. Doesn't that put Pelosi or Hakeem Jeffries in the kingmaker seat?
