Today the Republicans in the United States House of Representatives are voting on nominee Jim Jordan to be their next Speaker.
Jim Jordan is an intellectual featherweight, a spectacularly rabid and utterly foolish demagogue. Jordan is a despicable, dishonest, treasonous enabler and apologist for the January 6th Insurrection. He is a craven, cowardly creep accused of failing to protect multiple Ohio State University wrestlers from a sexual predator when he was an Assistant Coach. If Jordan is selected to “lead” he will be a witless grandstander guaranteed to shut down the government, disgrace his office, embarrass himself and his party and cost Republicans the House.
These attributes stand Representative Jim Jordan in good stead with the Republican majority in the House who are bereft of hope and common sense, small men and women who love their party of nihilistic chaos more than they love their country.
If Jordan fails to win the Speaker’s gavel here is the GOP shortlist for possible Speakers being circulated among members of the Freedom Caucus. One does not have to be a member of the United States House of Representatives to serve as Speaker.
The names are apparently listed in order of preference.

I simply cannot come to grips with the fact that our mighty nation has been taken captive by idiots and shysters. How did that happen? Why are there so many enemies of our democracy cropping up from within? What happened to the rule of law? What happened to sanity?
In other words, a perfect fit for his political party.
