John Boehner: “Oh, yes, Jim Jordan especially, my colleague from Ohio.”

I once met him in New York during the Obama years to plead with him to put a leash on some of the crazies he was putting on the air. It was making my job trying to accomplish anything conservative that much harder.

The modern Republican Party is filled with, as John Boehner put it, people who spend more time tearing things apart than actually building anything.

I want to work with you. But I`m just stuck.
