It’s never a good sign when a politician announces at 9:30 at night that they’re holding a press conference at 8:00 the next morning. When Jim Jordan did precisely this tonight, his people had to follow it up with the clarification that Jordan wouldn’t be using his press conference to drop out of the Speaker race.
Suffice it to say that people are having a little fun with the sticky situation that Jim Jordan has found himself in. Within minutes of using the “House Judiciary GOP” account to tweet out the news about his press conference, Jordan promptly began receiving negative replies. Lots of them.
Here was one reply to Jordan: “Will this be about his failed attempt to become the Speaker, or will he finally acknowledge his role in the sexual assault of the OSU wrestlers?” Someone else remarked on the absurdly early start time for the press conference: “Everyone hates you Jim, the hell anyone will sacrifice their sleep or their work to see you beg.” This just keeps getting worse for Jordan as the night goes on.
