The tan suit is a decent example of republicans freaking out over something stupid…but cmon Biden falling off the bike was hilarious. You can’t be so biased that you think that wasn’t funny

Really? McCarthy got the votes he needed in the end. I am 100% positive this would be praised if democrats did it.

I don’t understand why people are acting like this reflects poorly on house republicans? Like, they aren’t just blindly following the establishment, and are instead forcing concessions in return for their support. If people like AOC did this she’d be praised as fighting for the progressive wing, not lambasted for her party being disorganized
