Biden: Jordan 'got his rear end kicked' in Speaker bid [View all]

President Biden on Friday took a swipe at House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), after the congressman failed to secure the speakership following three separate votes.

“He just got his rear end kicked,” Biden said at a fundraiser in Washington, D.C.

The president recounted to supporters how Jordan failed to bring in the majority of votes needed to win the Speaker’s gavel on the floor three times, leading the Republican conference to hold a secret ballot over whether to move on from the Ohio Republican as its Speaker nominee.

Multiple reports indicated more than 110 House Republicans voted to find another candidate.

Don't be subtle Joe. Jordan got a well-deserved ass kicking.
