Katherine Clark joins “America Decides” to discuss the possibility of a bipartisan governing coalition.

This will be solved by GOP only just as when the shoe is on the other foot the DNC makes the call.
I doubt it. I mean, look how they've been voting. Has a single Democrat or a single Republican crossed party lines on Speaker?
Except for promoting groomers Jordan has no other plan…
Trump for Speaker of the House
cbs communist broadcast system .
"Chaos" is leftoid code for "we are not getting what we want." Just like "terrorism" and "racism" is opposition to their solutions. They have pretty much gutted these words of meaning. Without a speaker, US can't get involved in the warfare the warmongers long for. Remember, the US is in peril every second congress is in session.
What a piece of work this woman is
Seriously, an insurrectionist as Speaker? A guy who threatens his own caucus for the win? Typical MAGA!
SOMEBODY TELL ME WHY….
There are Republicans that are trying to put the blame on Democrats for the lack of a new speaker by saying that they if they just give Jim Jordan votes then they can open up the House and get down to business.
My question is “why are Democrats not telling those same Republicans that if they are so concerned about the House getting together why don’t they urge 5 Republicans to support Hakeem Jeffries and that way they will have a speaker and the House can get down to the business of governing.
The pettiness of these grown men, elected officials is so childish that it is a wonder that they can ever agree on who cuts the lights off at the end of the day.
It is really time for new, adult blood in the House.
NO!
I hope the country can survive this MAGA threat.
Next year every Democrat please, please, please vote. In '22 it was less than 7, 000 votes across 5 districts that gave the GOP their house majority. Let's not let that happen again.
Rinos are the real republicans. Liz Cheney gave up wealth and power to hold her opinion. Liz for speaker
Eventually the dems will have to bail out gop latest mess
Extremely nothing
Why isn’t the email threats being sent to GOP members wives and family members regarding voting for Jordan not being talked about? There’s proof. Scare tactics. SHM
Every Democrat voted against the speaker now they want bipartisan speaker, priceless. Snakes?
Jim Jordan is not willing to work in a bipartisan way
just give it to Hakeem Jeffries at this point… the republicans don't deserve to win anymore, they have proved they aren't interested in being serious or actually governing
Republican need to nominate Liz Cheney
just say NO to Jim Jordan… we need a MODERATE republican for speaker, please… we are tired of the extremist minority hijacking the republican party… we are tired of minority rule… there are far more moderates in the republican party… therefore, the speaker should reflect that… also we need the speaker to actually be able to govern and lead and work together with dems… there is no way Jordan will do that… if republicans keep favoring the extremists in their party then people are just going to switch over to dem or independent… it's getting old… enough already with the MAGA crap…
Fake news always reports fake news
Families didn't send nobody to do the jobs ya'll have been doing, with our money! Giving it away to every other country but ours!! Jim Jordan want be making back room deals with biden like Mccarthy
Everyone vote Republican at least we can get rid of the corruption that's in the house
Oh, I do agree with that. I copied me on her saying that but but one thing I do not agree that if you have a Democrat Preston, you do you have to have a Democrat speaker
Every year they get worse and worse. I wonder what the GOP will look like in 10 years if they aren’t dissolved by then.
Jeffries have the most votes, so what the second vote for.
Trump is the GREATEST living American and was one of our GREATEST Presidents…Hamas and Putin would not have attacked if Trump was still President…😍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Jim Jordan, a practicing wrestler himself, is not a pedophilic homosexual rapist, he just enjoys watching one in action.
Crooked Bidenomics doesn't work, the Democrates affordable care act raised taxes, gas, food, commodities, and goods. This isn't what the American people want. It isn't good for those who work pay check to pay check.
Former Republican here. HATER of Trump, Gaetz, Jordan et al. But how are the democrats not taking ANY heat on this??? McCarthy gave them EXACTLY what they SAID they wanted. A clean 45 day C.R. EVERY DEMOCRAT VOTED FOR IT. And when Gaetz threw his fit they jumped jumped right in bed with him!!! They keep criticizing these nuts (AND THEY ARE NUTS) but they joined right in.
Here is what I believe. Dems wanted the shutdown. Republicans we’re going to get all the blame for that. The campaign letters saying “look at what these lunatic republicans have done shutting down the govt. send $$$ so we can push back…..” were already printed (and I know that part is literally true). They were going to get SOOOOOO much traction out of that shutdown. But McCarthy called their bluff and they lost that golden opportunity. So they joined these nuts in the motion to vacate because all the blame lands on the Republicans.
Can one Democrat say, this vacant speakership at this critical moment is better for the country than McCarthy being Speaker?
Full disclosure I’m not a huge fan of McCarthy either…..but I liked him better than this dumpster fire!!!
Look Jim Jordan will not stop trying to make the Big Lie the reality. There is no way that he will not tank the funding of government so as to support Donald Trump . He is not a builder, he doesn't have a track record for passing legislation. He is a political terrorist and there is no reason to believe that he won't burn the House down.
#GymJordan is the #WorstCandidateforSpeakerEver!
Hakim Jeffries only needs 5 votes, Jordan needs 17. Come on; Lamalfa, Lawler, LaLota, Garabino, and D' Esposito, Vote for Jeffries!
Everything the democrats say is jargon and doublespeak
LETS DO WHATEVER TRUMP SAYS THATS A GENIUS IDEA LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
So the short answer I get from watching the first two minutes of this video…is no.
The GOP has dug itself into such a deep hole over the last 7-8 years and they just keep digging. My former party is unsavable at this point, and it will take at least a generation to overcome. Quite possibly two generations.
The person doesn’t matter. Why did you vote Kevin out who supported your bill? Why didn’t you support Jim Jorden? Everything she said is a conflict. Everything is nonsense. She is a definition of a snake.
If your so awesone close the boarder
Could be Trump has lost some MAGA influence by not electing Jordon right away for he is an election denier liar.
Dems goals are to hurt this country and there doing a good job. Boarder economy energy police woke and foreign policies
Yea dems vote for jim
We don't need someone in the democrats.. we already in the hole..
MGT finally got the civil war she has been calling for.
Bravo
Answer = No.
