historical film this year about the civil rights martyr emmett till, and that s airing for the first time tonight, so i m excited to share it with you we begin with what we ve learned about the republican party it is reeling struggling with the maga republican problems it created after a midterm fizzle. the red wave if at most has become a red trickle. definitely not a republican wave, that s for darn sure. republicans score they were going to sweep, a red suetsunam, and we believed them, but they did not. even tucker carlson accepting the reality of election results. that has basketball the mood as the year ends. donald trump announce he have running again. there s a power struggle in the house. there s the rnc s autopsy. and then there s all of the blame on what even the republican party s leader in the senate called low quality candidates part of the problem i don t think there s any question in my mind that hurt republicans all over is donald trump. some w
end up with a new kachb date? let s bring in one of the 20 rebellious republicans, chip roy of texas, a member of the house freedom caucus nominated jim jordan for the speaker ership the third ballot. congressman roy, thanks for joining us. you ve been vocal about the opposition to mccarthy to be speaker and nominated jim jordan this time round and voted for biron donaldson. you seem different from some of your rebels, though, that you seem actually focussed on a set of pri of principles and rule sets. do you agree with that assessment or no? first of all, thanks for having me on. that s close to correct. i would take some issue with saying that i ve been in constant opposition to mccarthy as much as trying to offer changes that i think are p paramount to make the housework again. that s a bipartisan criticism. we haven t had an open debate since 2016. we can t keep spending money we don t have and allow the border to be wide open and endanger people and keep business as us
there are other candidates other than jim jordan or kevin mccarthy to come. do you have any thoughts? i think steve scalise is a possibility. i think there are some dark horgs candidates that we ve heard names floated in the conference that could still come out. i defy you to find another news network where the same show quotes tin cup and hill lel. i think it s possible there s a dark horse. we have seen that. we haven t seen it play out on the floor, but pre floor when newt gingrich was ousted and they were looking for a consensus candidate. turns out he was a child molester, but, okay. true, convicted. that did happen. it s a very different republican world, different political world now, but there is precedent for that kind of thing if kevin mccarthy can t get the votes.
boebert is a co-equal maga against hill. it s they re like feuding now. they hate each other. which is fun to watch. the you know, i agree with most almost everything chip roy said about the problems with congress. i think that we need to get back to regular order. we need to have committee chairs with power and real rules that allow legislation is supposed to be a process of discovery and we don t have that anymore. nancy pelosi imposed policies, paul ryan did it. a lot of this comes from newt gin gingrich. i agree. there is a huge thing between the complaints and why i m voting against kevin mccarthy but i wouldn t like jim jordan isn t going to change. let s bring in somebody who knows these crowds all of these crowds very well. the former acting chief of staff for former president trump and a former republican congressman from south carolina who is a member of the house freedom caucus. mr. mulvaney good to see you. this fight goes back to when you
it shortens colds! zicam. zinc that cold! by his standards, to achieve what he wants to i the chief, joe biden has been pretty darn effective, and he had just had one of the best off-year elections in american history. if an opponent in this case turned out to be a heck of a lot more successful than we thought he would be. that was one of the most stunning statements from one of the most partisan speaker of the house, if not american history in fact, a lot of people credit newt gingrich making washington more partisan. it shows part of what the reality based section of the republican party s dealing with a larger democratic majority in the senate, manchin proof, a jobs record that many say just doesn t even compare to trump.
