Sean Hannity on Monday defended his efforts to convince House Republicans to vote for Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) for Speaker of the House, saying that he has learned that some are “snowflakes” based on their responses to his outreach.
The longtime Fox News host, as noted by reporters from Axios and The Washington Post, has been using his influence to try to push Jordan over the 217-vote threshold. Jordan can only afford four Republicans to not support him.
“This is an important vote,” Hannity asserted early on in his broadcast. “Why is it a shock to certain lawmakers and members of the media mob—all of you out there—that yours truly, a member of the press, is daring to ask elected representatives—the so-called public servants of this country—if and when they plan to wrap up the speaker battle and re-open the people’s House amid growing chaos at home and abroad?”
