On 'The Takeout' podcast this week, Rep. Ken Buck, who has twice voted against Rep. Jim Jordan's bid to be speaker, discussed the current chaos on the House floor.
Rep. Jim Jordan, Republican of Ohio, will continue to 'bleed votes' with each attempt to win the speaker's gavel, and Republicans should look to a temporary speakership to break the current impasse, so the House can move legislation to aid Israel and Ukraine and keep the government operating, said Rep. Ken Buck, Republican of Colorado.'I think he bleeds three or four votes this next time, maybe a little bit more,' Buck told 'The Takeout' podcast this week.
Under this option, 'Jordan puts himself in a position so in the future he could become speaker,' Buck said. 'I wouldn't call it bowing out, but I think in Jim's mind, there is a way to keep this alive, keep the dream alive.'Buck said this was not his preferred approach.He wants to see McHenry elected speaker on a temporary basis, with limited procedural powers to oversee passage of must-pass spending bills.
