    That’s one of the requirements the crazy-eight had for a speaker candidate. No shit, they outright said they wouldn’t vote for anyone who voted to certify the 2020 election results. They only have a 9 seat lead so the other 213 have to do exactly what the 8 say or else nothing gets done.
    They could work with the Democrats to bypass the crazy, but they absolutely won’t.
