If you will devote 4:51 to the youtube clip attached, (Kevin McCarthy's CA) closest ally (Elise Stephanik NY) will let you know directly why Jordan should be to be the next Speaker of the House, a breath taking voice of "Truth"!
Apparently, he was not a very good coach. Sure, he was an elite wrestler, but a great wrestler does not necessarily become a good coach.Jim Jordan Pleads for Votes as Speaker Dream Collapses: 'Too Much at Stake'

I guess he could always go back to coaching, but given his role in that sexual abuse scandal, who would hire him?

Doing nothing is kinda' Jordan's M.O.Whether or not the university was aware of what was going on is irrelevant - Jordan allegedly knew and did nothing while he was there.
Jim Jordan stated he didn't know, so there ya have itWhether or not the university was aware of what was going on is irrelevant - Jordan allegedly knew and did nothing while he was there.
No, I was talking about the one where the kids on his team were coming to him about being molested and he ignored it.You mean the sex scandal with Dr. Strauss that OSU had full knowledge of in 1979, that was roughly 9 years before Jim Jordan was employed at OSU in 1987
Sometimes popcorn is preferable to fruitcakes and nuts.Even if he does dress like Orville Redenbacher
You can post whatever you desire, the facts are they were (Adults) and OSU was fully aware of Dr.Strauss in 1979, and they permitted itNo, I was talking about the one where the kids on his team were coming to him about being molested and he ignored it.
More Ohio State wrestlers say Rep. Jim Jordan knew about sexual abuse when he was coach
One wrestler said Jordan, a former assistant coach at Ohio State, took part in locker-room conversations where athletes discussed the abuse.
More former Ohio State University wrestlers have come forward to contradict Rep. Jim Jordan’s claim that he had no idea the wrestling team doctor was molesting athletes.
One of the wrestlers, Shawn Dailey, said he was groped half a dozen times by Dr. Richard Strauss in the mid-1990s, when Jordan was the assistant wrestling coach. Dailey said he was too embarrassed to report the abuse directly to Jordan at the time, but he said Jordan took part in conversations where Strauss' abuse of many other team members came up.
"I participated with Jimmy and the other wrestlers in locker-room talk about Strauss. We all did," Dailey, 43, told NBC News, referring to Jordan. "It was very common knowledge in the locker room that if you went to Dr. Strauss for anything, you would have to pull your pants down.”
Dailey spoke out two days after NBC News reported that three former wrestlers who were coached by Jordan more than two decades ago accused the GOP congressman of turning a blind eye to Strauss' alleged abuse and then lying about it. Jordan denied knowing anything about the abuse and continues to do so.
Dailey corroborated the account of one of those wrestlers, Dunyasha Yetts, who told NBC News that Yetts had protested to Jordan and head coach Russ Hellickson after Strauss tried to pull down his wrestling shorts when Yetts went to see him for a thumb injury.
"Dunyasha comes back and tells Jimmy, ‘Seriously, why do I have to pull down my pants for a thumb injury?’" Dailey recalled. "Jimmy said something to the extent of, ‘If he tried that with me, I would kill him.'"
Calling Jordan “a close friend,” Dailey said he is a Republican and that he contributed to the powerful Ohio congressman’s first political campaign for state representative in 1994.
“What happened drove me out of the sport,” said Dailey, a married father of two who works as a fundraiser for an Ohio college. “So I was surprised to hear Jim say that he knew nothing about it."

Hard to see how even a Jordan supporter admits that he knew about the molestations, if it isn't true that he did. It's not like the first time Jordan has been caught lying, is it?
Just the facts. Jordan was aware of the abuse of those students and chose to ignore it.You can post whatever you desire,
As you see, it's a fact that Jordan knew it was going on and did nothing. Telling us that other people did it too, is not an excuse for Jim Jordan doing it.the facts are they were (Adults) and OSU was fully aware of Dr.Strauss in 1979, they permitted it
Jordan didn't know as you claim, it's a 30+ year after the fact, political hit job on Jordan and don't forget the $40 million gold digging expedition in paid claimsJust the facts. Jordan was aware of the abuse of those students and chose to ignore it.

Wow. Sexual assault apologia was not on my radar for this thread.You can post whatever you desire, the facts are they were (Adults) and OSU was fully aware of Dr.Strauss in 1979, and they permitted it
The (Adults) that encountered Strauss between 1978-1998 had the knowledge and availibity to contact the local policing authority if they felt they were being sexually abused and they didn't
The present claims against Jim Jordan are false, a political hit job, gold diggers
The fun has just begun, Jordan will be the next speaker of the house, even if it takes 50 more votes to get thereJordan is skilled at what he does in a political role due to his debate prowess. But being a good debater isn't always synonymous with "being right"...you can win a debate while being wrong if you have enough prep time and your opponent doesn't, and it certainly isn't synonymous with having the plurality of support whoever the next speaker is going to need to have in order to get the gavel.
At this point in time, the GOP's best bet is to go with McHenry. McCarthy seems to be disinterested with winning the gavel back...Scalise failed, Jim Jordan failed 2 votes. Jeffries from the Democratic side is statistically unlikely to get over the hump being in the "not-in-power" party in the house.
McHenry seems to be someone who some members on both sides can tolerate. Given the disputes & infighting on the GOP side, "base level tolerance" may be the winning formula on this one.
Even if he does dress like Orville Redenbacher
