YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

It appears that Republicans consistently let opportunities slip through their fingers. This is evident as they continue to grapple with the absence of a speaker of the House and are now employing arm-twisting tactics to garner support for the outspoken conservative Jim Jordan. Surprisingly, Jordan received far fewer votes than initially anticipated, revealing that members of Congress are resistant to bullying tactics.

In the discussion, Lauren Wright, associate research scholar and lecturer at Princeton University, says the Democrats know how to negotiate behind closed doors without airing their dirty laundry and ruining the reputation of the party.
