House Republican leaders expected to bypass GOP opposition by relying heavily on Democrats to keep government open

[C_Clayton_Jones]

“House Republicans are expected to bypass mounting GOP opposition to a spending bill to keep the government running into December by using a procedural floor move that would rely heavily on Democrats to pass the legislation and avoid a government shutdown.

The House Rules Committee stripped the government spending bill from consideration Monday night, forcing House GOP leadership to tee up the spending bill under a procedure known as suspension of the rules, which requires a two-thirds majority vote to pass.

Relying on Democrats to overcome their narrow, divided majority and keep the government open has been a regular occurrence for Republicans this Congress, and was the exact maneuver that got former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy ousted from his job. Republicans have long known they’d need to rely on Democrats to pass the shutdown-averting measure this time around, but with Democratic votes now likely to vastly outnumber the GOP supporters, House Speaker Mike Johnson finds himself in a risky position with his conference.”

Republicans must rely on Democrats for sound, responsible governance because Republicans are incapable of sound, responsible governance.

IOW, Republicans can actually work with the opposition, compromising when necessary, something the opposition appears to be unable to do.

So Johnson is a feckless cuck and shill for the permanent administrative state...What else is new?

Poor whiny dimtard....

They get the "bipartisanship" bullshit that they're always mewling about, and still they're unhappy.

Fact is that they're unhappy little brats as the default position.

Yeah, just ask McCarthy how that is received.
