Multiple members emerged from the House GOP's speaker forum on Tuesday saying they don't see either candidate being any closer to having the votes needed to secure the gavel on the floor.
Driving the news: "No one is close to 217," Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.) said after Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La) and Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) pitched members on why they believe they should be the next speaker.

Oh, I didn't say they weren't trying. But even a dim bulb can figure out that if it takes a majority of the House to elect and keep a Speaker, and the House has a Republican majority, then the reason there isn't a Speaker is because the majority party can't keep their shit together.
I think you're overestimating the majority of the American electorate. A solid chunk of low information voters think Biden is in charge of everything and anything bad that happens is solely his fault.
