WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden said House Republicans’ inability to unify behind a speaker candidate, which has prevented the chamber from beginning its legislative business, is “not a good look” for the country.

Speaking at the White House on Wednesday before traveling to Kentucky for an event to highlight last year’s bipartisan infrastructure law with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Biden said of Republicans, “I hope they get their act together.” He declined to say whether he had any choice for the speaker job, adding “I have no idea” who will prevail.
House Republicans’ choice candidate for the job, Kevin McCarthy of California, failed to win the required majority on three ballots Tuesday — the first time in a century a speaker hasn’t been selected on the first ballot. Members-elect are set to return to the chamber on Wednesday for additional balloting.
A speaker is required for the would-be members to be sworn-in and for the chamber’s business to begin.
It’s not a good look for the country when the President doesn’t always seem so coherent.
What is not a good look for the country us a president who claimed his father asked him to give a purple heart his uncle was awarded to his uncle and claimed he did so, all this in 2008 after he won election to VP, when his father and uncle had died years before in 2002 and 1999, yet the media doesnt even ask about it, this is not a good look for the country, the media are just democratic party mouthpieces and the president is a brainless twit.
As much as I dislike democrats I have to give it to them, they have acdus between them and if not they know how to keep it under the rug
He doesn’t care if it’s actually good, it just has to.look good
LOL he has no room to talk He himself is a very bad look for the country!
That’s funny coming from a nit wit like Biden who can’t puta simple sentence together
The President tells it like it is! The Republicans look like the Keystone Cops. A boosha.
