Are the 20 or so GOP radical extremist holdouts really working on a Constitutional crisis?

[Joe Nation]

No matter how many concessions McCarthy makes to these radicals, they keep voting against him. I think their goal is to shut down the government. I also think the vast majority of the Reich wing is supportive of this tactic and are willing to watch the House burn. What do you think?

Are we looking at next Constitutional crisis that would force the McCarthy faction to negotiate with the Democrats? This could get interesting.

1. Absolutely

And it's way more than those 20. It's the entire party.

3. Americans vote for people who hate the US government.

What can we expect?

4. Yes. (nt)

5. The government is funded through 9/30

Debt ceiling needs to be raised by around that time as well.

I’m not sure it’s more complicated than a lot people not liking McCarthy.

6. As far as I'm concerned, the longer the radical gop screws up the simple task of electing a leader,

the better it is for the rest of us. They have a whole different shit show ready to go if they do manage to elect a speaker, starting with ButtHisLaptop(*penis*). They intend to use the debt ceiling to legislate by hostage once they do settle down, so this is better actually. It will simply be their fault and only their fault when the fed defaults.

7. They're big lie insurrectionists, attention whores who are...

building their own personal brand by going eagerly before mics and TV cameras — the business of the people and the smooth functioning of the Congress is IMO, or less conccern to this band of insurrectionists than what concessions they can get out of McCarthy so that they can run the House, they themselves, the 20 or so insurrectionists themselves with their whte supremacists, anti-Semitic, anti-LGBTQ+, christo-fascist views.
