Rep. #timburchett just said #republicans would never act like #democrats are during the vote for #speakerofthehouse

They would reach across the aisle and help elect a #speaker

Methinks Timmy is #fibbing

"Who doesn't like a circus act where they pull members of the audience into the clown car ... it's hilarious!"

Hard pass for me, thanks.

@JDS He's full of shit but for the sake of argument, let's say he's right. They would reach across the aisle to a party that's serious about governing to help nominate a speaker who was in a position in his or her caucus to stand by their side of the bargain.

Dems do not have that option.
