last question. >> kevin mccarthy doesn't have 218 votes. >> sean: and you have 20. >> i -- kevin mccarthy doesn't have 218. >> sean: this is a question -- >> i will not, sean, with draw. our asks are not petty or self serving. we're asking for commitments on what the american people want to see. a vote ob term limits. a vote on the text tegs border plan to i secure the southern border. crying out loud, sean, we asked for a balanced budget. imagine a congress that doesn't spend money we don't. have we will get this right with the right speaker, sean. >> sean: if you only have 30. >> 30 would be a beautiful number to reach. >> sean: telling kevin mccarthy and the 203 people that support him to withdraw because they don't have 218. that is what you're saying. >> it's obvious by tonight's motion to adjourn. kevin mccarthy and his supporters have voter fatigue. i'm here for it. >> sean: i asked you a simple question. i feel i'm getting an answer from a liberal. >> i'm not going to support sketch mccarthy. if i'm the last person standing, which i don't believe i will be i will not -- >> sean: i feel we made progress. >> i love president trump. you won't pit him against me. i love you. >> sean: that's what you said to him. >> i have seen the broken trust. the lack of accountability. what we're getting phone calls saying that we need to stop this. kevin doesn't have the votes for speaker. period. we need a conscience candidate, get this right and get the country back on track. thank you, sean. >> sean: appreciate it. here with more is the former chair of the house oversight committee. tray, i'm sure you found that entertaining. i didn't get the answers i wanted. obviously the math exists differently on one side. 200 votes. you don't have 218 you have to withdraw. if you have 20 votes and support the congress woman's side you get to continue. does that make sense to you, tray. >> i tell you what makes sense, sean. you didn't get the answers. we don't need the answers. we can read the tempterment and demeanor. it's personnel. she didn't liking kevin mccarthy pherpblly. here is the proof. there was a vote 30 minutes ago to negotiate. you had the 207, some wanted to keep negotiating. they're making progress. then had you four that would rather have a spectacle on the floor of the house that embarrasses the republican party including one of the four being your last guest. if you want proof of her motivation she would rather embarrass the republican party on national television than adjourn to negotiate. >> sean: here is how i see it, what is critical to the country kevin mcdarthy has pledged to do. the agenda items i have read it many times and put on the screen for america to watch. the america first maga agenda i support. kevin mccarthy has agreed to do all of the above. a motion to vacate would be an insurance policy if he didn't keep -p his promises. he has 203 they have 20 votes. at what point do they realize the math is in kevin's favor or do we go onto perpetuity and not accomplish anything. >> not all 20 but some have principle disagreements. they're in kevin's office working them out. some are only interested in notoriety, fame and attention. they won't have a gavel like jimmy jordan. they don't have his talent, experience, they don't work like he does this. is their only moment to be on national television opposing another republican. so whatever great ideas they may have none will be done unless there is a speaker. they want to go from 207 to 218. kevin wants to go from 200 to 218. i think kevin's numbers are better than they have now. >> sean: this is the point i'm trying to make. she pleadpugh with president trepl -p to encourage kevin to bough out because he doesn't have 218. there side has 20. yesterday she voted for jordan. today bu byron donaldson. agree jim jordan head of the judiciary committee is a massive win especially with the investigations he will be involved in that are critically important to the country. at some point will we get a resolution? >> i, we will have to. i mean unless you believe in minority rights and the extreme you don't go from 20 to 218. we need, you're never going to get some of these people, sean, i mean they live to be an opposition to republicans. but people watching your show need to call and say you know what i didn't work my tail off in november to watch you look like a clown show on national television. you all get behind kevin. you got your motion to vacate. as it relates to president trump they love him for a pardon or need attention. they say kevin is my person they know better. they know better than the republican conference. kevin got 85% of the vote in the primary. yet, they know better. i can't think of anything more antidemocratic than 15% dictating to the other 85% who the speaker should be. >> sean: if there is anything they want or need or missing in the agenda i want to know what it is. i can't get the answer out of anybody. >> get in his office and let him know. >> sean: i agree with that. >> quit opposing the motion to adjourn. you're right they should listen to you. >> sean: they should. nobody ever listens to me. aoc floated the idea of a coalition government as the battle for speaker continues. plus we will remind you of the stunning hypocrisy of the left's new leader, the really election denier. and you have the las
