Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio crushed in his bid to be House Minority Leader

[Kaleva]

Lost to Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. by a vote of 159 to 43. Jordan is an avid Trump supporter and a member of the radical Freedom Caucus.

Freepers are having a Sad.

"Every damn time one of these so-called House Majority Leaders get elected...they turn into the worse RINO POS imaginable: Boner, Ryan etc.

It’s like every time they get elected, there’s a ritual called ‘DRINK THE RINO DEEP STATE SERUM” and they become something worse.."

"Same old swamp. Same old RINOs. If anyone could be worse than Ryan it's McCarthy. "

And so on.

Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo. won the title of GOP conference chairman.

1. If I were in the House, I'd be known for my habit of calling Jim Jordan "Hastert" by *cough* mistake

Before it would just have been about the wrestling and molestation connection, but now a (failed) Speaker bid too? That's too much to pass up.

2. Jordan is pure jag-off. He deserved to be voted down.
