If it's true that McCarthy warned his caucus to behave at the SOFTU (not do exactly what they did) and repeatedly attempted to shush them (while being ignored), then he is even more pathetically weak than we thought.

Does he really think he can keep trying to play the middle - nodding and clapping while he listened to President Biden and trying to shush the pigs in the crowd. But we know that instead of telling them "Don't ever f'ing do that to me again", his response is to validate their rude, boorish, ignorant behavior and excuse it as their passion at Biden's lies.

I'm sorry, folks, I know there are a lot of former / hopeful future Republicans here, but do you really think that finding a "normal" presidential candidate is the right answer for the country when that person is part of a dangerous and ignorant party that has no interest in actual governance or problem solving? Look, I was a Republican many, many years ago and I have sympathy for the centrist viewpoint, but this party has forfeited the right to power and until I see that change (and not just a stray Republican here and there shouting into the wilderness (Hogan? Sununu? puh-lease)), I'm accepting the reality that this party is a danger and can not take power. Ever.
