Both men know getting into detail on spending strategy could be fatal for their House speakership bids.
For years, a rotating cast of House GOP leaders have shared a fatal flaw: an inclination to only address their most immediate problems., creating a problem he knew he'd face one day. Sure enough, 10 months later, those McCarthy critics took advantage of the change to take him out., or perhaps someone else—their problems are all converging at once. And to solve one problem, they may need to address all of them.
Unfortunately for Scalise and Jordan, they’re both now stuck defending a doomed strategy. And as they both make the case that they should win the speakership, they are stuck telling members that, actually, this strategy can work. But even though Republicans have said they’d like to go to the floor Wednesday to elect the new speaker, these sources from both Scalise and Jordan’s camps expressed concern about doing so before it’s clear that anyone has enough votes to win—roughly 217 Republican votes, depending on how many members actually show up.
This source told The Daily Beast that a spending bill strategy was “the diciest thing that either of them are having to deal with.”Both men seem to know that getting too specific on a strategy that’s ill-fated could be their downfall—either behind closed doors during the initial vote, on the floor when they need almost every Republican, or come Nov. 17 when government funding runs out.
“Congressman Jim Jordan has been a STAR long before making his very successful journey to Washington, D.C.,” Trump ultimately wrote in a late night post on his Truth Social platform on Friday. “He will be a GREAT Speaker of the House, & has my Complete & Total Endorsement!”
