If they punch, I punch back ten times harder. Never back down, never admit fault, never even recognize the possibility that there could exist any fault.

In many senses, this had been the party of Trump for many years. He just tore open the package.

Having this Tea Party jerk as minority leader would be OK, since the odds of him keeping party cohesion are low. But as Speaker? That would be a disaster.

c_stedman · September 12, 2018, 4:25pm

Of course, they’re backing him; he’s a slime ball.

jtx · September 12, 2018, 4:29pm

Yep, somehow in the GOP WORLD it makes sense.

Well SURE…do you think these Cons ‘care’ about the boys that SHOULD HAVE BEEN protected by Jordon when he was a coach? Do you think they give a sweet sht if he protects his CONSTITUENTS? HELL no. It’s all about the party and the cause. SCREW the people. ANY people.

Gym Jordan has a long proven record as an enabler. He’s the perfect man for the job.

occamscoin · September 12, 2018, 4:43pm

This time, why not the worst?

pshah · September 12, 2018, 4:55pm

I just feel sorry for the Secret Service agents, who have to potentially lay down their life for a neanderthal like Jordon. It’s the food chain turned upside down.

“According to the Politico report, groups include Club for Grope, FondleWorks, the Closeted Leadership Fund, Tease Party Patriots, and America Fist.”

Jordan was their second choice as Charles Manson and Ted Bundy are no longer available…

pshah · September 12, 2018, 4:58pm

You see…this is exactly why I won’t belong to any group that would have me as a member.

occamscoin · September 12, 2018, 5:02pm

Wait, are they saying they found a guy dumber than Kevin “Derp State” McCarthy?

“I resemble that remark…” Norm Crosby

Can’t wait to see Jordan’s accusers lined up at the Capitol to lobby against him.

firsttimecaller · September 12, 2018, 5:21pm

I hope they got Hastert to sign on!

c_stedman · September 12, 2018, 5:21pm

I think Norm Crosby stole that remark from Moe or Curly of the Three Stooges. Nyuck, nyuck, nyuck.
