Trump's endorsement of McCarthy had no effect on votes.

Looks like Trump's intervention this morning has shaken absolutely no votes loose.

Kevin McCarthy Suffers Defeat in Fourth Round

After a fourth round of voting, the House of Representatives failed once again to elect a speaker.

The vote totals for the fourth round:

Hakeem Jeffries – 212
Kevin McCarthy – 201
Byron Donalds – 20
Other – 0
Present – 1

Despite a long evening and morning of negotiations with Republicans, McCarthy was unable to move a single vote in his favor. In fact, with Rep. Victoria Sparks voting “present” McCarthy actually lost one vote.

It’s also worth noting that Trump’s endorsement of McCarthy had no effect on votes.

The GOP leadership is also unable to pass an adjournment resolution.
