Republicans dropped Rep. Jim Jordan on Friday as their nominee for House speaker, making the decision during a closed-door session after the hard-edged ally of Donald Trump failed badly on a third ballot for the gavel.
The blocked-House impasse deepening, Republicans have no realistic or workable plan to unite the fractured GOP majority, elect a new speaker and return to the work of Congress that has been languishing since hard-liners ousted Kevin McCarthy at the start of the month.
Which is kinda a dumb rule because Schwarzenegger has a lot more loyalty to the people than Trump ever did, despite where both were born.
It also lead to the whole debate about Obama’s birth, which was just a technical debate rather than relevant at all to how good of a president he could be.
