Oh the HORROR in the House should Gym Jordan get elected SOTH

[ProudMNDemocrat]

Hard to imagine inviting President Joe Biden to give the State of The Union address next year as VP Kamala Harris will be seated next to him.

What say you? I can only imagine Government coming to a long standstill and NOTHING getting done.

1. Geez I never thought of that

Grab the popcorn it could get fun

[JohnSJ]

2. The only ones supporting this possibility right now are the media, to create "excitement".

8. Agreed

On a scale of 1 to 10 of things to worry about, Jim Jordan becoming speaker of the house rates about a negative 4.

3. Might as well have this guy in there....

[Retrograde]

4. That's only tradition, AFAIK

The Constitution specifies that the president shall from time to time inform Congress of the state of the union - it doesn't say how they should do it. Showing up in person is a 20th century innovation: previously, presidents just sent a written message to Congress.

5. K&R, although if Gym gets in, he won't last long

[Lovie777]

6. GQP are so evil they may try to oust..........................

the State of the Union address as ...............

whatever stupid shit they will think of

P.S. by that time the USA would be shut down since Nov. 2023.

7. At this point, I'm guessing he'd last as long as the last one.

Maybe longer, maybe shorter, but not by much. I think it's looking like a series of self-inflicted votes of no-confidence will plague the GOP for the short term until they start letting the grown-ups run the place. (at best, I'm a late Wednesday afternoon quarterback)

9. Well you can bet he will tear up his copy of his speech. And probably throw the confetti in the air
