    The party supposed to walk in lockstep no longer does, so any GOP speaker is destined to fail at this point.

    I’m okay with that. Our forefathers assumed that the average person would vote to support their constituents. But instead, we got mofos voting against their own beliefs because “the other team” proposed it.

    The Democrats only started playing the lockstep game after Republicans mastered it for decades. And honestly, people breaking rank and forcing bipartisanship and making concessions is what we are supposed to be doing.
