Texas Republican tells GOP colleagues to resign if they won't back Scalise

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) has had little patience for his Republican colleagues as of late.

He's attacked the GOP for the party's "crazy candidate" choices, saying it was the reason they didn't have a "red wave" in the 2022 midterms. He has bashed the MAGA loyalists in the House for forcing the 15-vote removal on former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). He then attacked Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) for doing the work of "Democrats."

By Thursday, Crenshaw had become disgusted with his colleagues who were refusing to support Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) for speaker of the House, despite the fact that the Louisiana Republican won a plurality of votes during a conference election earlier this week.

Seemingly annoyed by his colleagues refusing to line up behind the candidate who got the most votes, Crenshaw lashed out.

“I think they should all resign their congressional seat unless they get 100% of their district to vote for them," he told CNN's Manu Raju.

It's now been more than a week since Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was ousted as speaker and House Republicans appear no closer to coming together and finding a consensus candidate, despite the fact that top American ally Israel is now at war and despite the fact that funding for the government is due to run out in a little more than a month.
