Adam Kinzinger: Jim Jordan Is Not a Great Communicator, He Is Great on Fox News

EXCERPT:

KINZINGER: “Now, Jim Jordan is not a great communicator. He is great on Fox News because he throws out all kinds of bombs, right? I don’t think he would be good with a crowd that, frankly, is in a middle, unless they don’t wear suit jackets, also, and he can relate to them on that level. So that will be an interesting thing. The reason I think that Jim Jordan can unite the caucus better is not because he is any better. I think he is far worse. It’s because the incentive structure is such that these eight renegades that threw out the current speaker, Kevin McCarthy, are probably going to get their way. Because they are willing to go to the edge of the earth, they are willing to withhold their votes to get rid of Kevin McCarthy. The question is, are there 10 on the other side willing to play that same game to say, you know, 'Hell no will I ever vote for Jim Jordan.' If there are, Jim Jordan will never be speaker. We may actually get to a consensus speaker, which would be better for the country. But unless that happened, I am not convinced there are those numbers now.”
