It Is The McCarthy Dunk-a-thon & Here Are All The Best BURNS

Kevin McCarthy has at the time of this article lost his bid for speaker 13 times which ties him for the second most number of times someone has lost a Speaker vote. The last time the House was this divided over a leader we devolved into Civil War pretty immediately after. So it’s pretty embarrassing for ole K Dawg. 

Obviously, I personally revel in the immensely embarrassing failure of any popular boy who thinks he’s entitled to power simply because he believes it’s his turn and for no other credible reason.

  1. The worst trade in 100 years and the worst Speaker bid in 100 years
  1. Our very own Corinne Clark’s list of better substitutes 
  1. This perfect solution
