On MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) openly disagreed with her party’s idea of having a temporary House speaker.
She strongly believes that the Republican group in the House is in turmoil, describing it as “absolutely broken.”
Reporter Garrett Haake provided some background on the situation.
He noted that there’s a lot of uncertainty about who will take on the House speaker role and for how long.
Jim Jordan, an influential Republican, has privately told his colleagues that he’s okay with Patrick McHenry filling the role for a while.
But how long that “while” will be is still up in the air. It could be until the end of this year or just until mid-November.
On the other side, the Democrats are also in talks. They haven’t seen the full details of the proposal, but Leader Jeffries has been filling them in.
They’re trying to figure out what they will and won’t accept regarding this plan.
But not all Republicans are on the same page.
Haake highlighted that some, especially those who support Jim Jordan for speaker, really don’t like this temporary speaker idea.
Representative Greene’s stance is crystal clear. She said, “I do not support this plan.”
Greene feels that the Republicans earned their majority in the House and shouldn’t settle for a short-term solution. In her eyes, the party should come together and work as one.
Greene’s final words were a call to action for her colleagues, stating: “Our conference has a responsibility to the American people, to our districts, to work together and unify, and this conference is absolutely broken.”
