Rocks For Gym

Republicans are not serious about government in Congress and the proof of that is they have nominated Jim Gym Jordan to become Speaker of the House. Never mind that he can’t get enough votes to become Speaker, but he’s the designate at this time. Republicans, here’s a free tip: don’t nominate the guy who’s the favorite of Matt Gaetz.

Jim Jordan doesn’t actually legislate. The average Legislative Effectiveness Score, sponsoring bills that pass, and whatnot, is 1.0. According to a joint study by Vanderbilt University and the University of Virginia, Jim Jordan scored a 0.009. He is not an effective member of the House of Representatives unless you consider gaslighting, lying, gooning, and helping cover up a coup attempt as being effective. Jordan is one of the worst members of the House. He sucks.

Jim Jordan chairs the House Oversight Committee and serves on the House Judiciary Committee. He uses his appointments to these committees to gaslight, distract, and lie. There is not a hearing where Jordan asks legitimate questions. When he does ask a question, he won’t let the witness answer. He mostly screams and politicizes, usually to help Donald Trump. He’s used his seat in Congress to spread lies about Benghazi, the 2020 election being illegitimate, President Biden being corrupt, and Trump being targetted by a “weaponized Department of Justice.”

Jim Jordan is very condescending. He’s an asshole. Why are Republicans about to vote to make an asshole the Speaker of the House?

Jim Jordan couldn’t remember when he talked to Trump on January 6 during the white nationalist terrorist attack on the Capitol. He couldn’t remember how many times he talked to Trump on January 6. He refused to cooperate with the committee investigating the white nationalist terrorist attack which is bizarre because now he’s the one issuing subpoenas. Jordan is very good at not remembering things.

A team doctor for the Ohio State University wrestling team sexually abused at least 177 male student-patients between 1979 and 1998. Jim Jordan was an assistant coach at OSU from 1987 to 1995. Jordan says he was never aware of the doctor’s sexual abuse despite at least six students saying he was and that it was an open secret in the athletic department. When one student complained to Jordan that the doctor wanted to inspect his genitals when he went for a broken nose, Jordan said, “I have nothing to do with this.” Someone needs to inspect Jim Jordan’s testicles to see if he has any.

Jim Jordan is a horrible rotten rancid vile excuse, not just for a member of Congress but for a human being. He can’t unite the House. Hell, he can’t even unite his party of goons. This is a joke by Republicans. Jordan is a joke sent by his Ohio district. Assholes are not uniters.

Jim Jordan will probably not become the Speaker but if he does, I predict no legislation will pass from the House during his speakership and that he’ll save Kevin McCarthy from the distinction of being the worst Speaker in history.

Speaker Jim Gym Jordan will be more trick than treat.
