Did you hear about Matt Gaetz and Mike Rogers?

During the House speaker vote Matt Gaetz and Mike Rogers almost got into a fight. When Rogers lunged at Gaetz - out of habit Gaetz said - sir I don't even know your teenage daughter (stole that joke from a talk show host). Cheers!

    Hmmm... two "jokes" had a "punch"-line.  All that's missing is the bar.

    Play on words.
    He is calling the Republicans involved "jokes."
    And playing off the "walked into a bar" jokes.
    And "punch-line" = an actual punch.

    My attempt at humor.

    1. Those 2 people are jokes (joke meaning: "a person or thing that is ridiculously inadequate").  {Of course, most politicians are "jokes"}
    2. They wanted to punch each other out (oh, they were thinking it).  {One might call it a "punch-line"}
    3. As the old joke goes, "Two jokes walk into a bar...".

    Thank you for the explanation. I just made up a joke. Matt Gaetz walks into a bar and asks the bartender if there are any minors in the bar. The bartender says no so Matt Gaetz  leaves. Cheers!

    It looked staged to me.

    Why would they stage something like that? Cheers?

    It got a lot of people talking about them. But it is not the kind of talk that will help them show that they are united or capable of governing. So I still can't see why they would stage something like that. Cheers!

    MAGA Republicans and establishment Republicans should not be united.
