As leader of the House Republicans,
McCarthy stands tall and proud.
Despite multiple rounds of voting,
He fights to be speaker loud.
The new Congress has just begun,
But already chaos reigns.
The GOP majority in disarray,
As McCarthy's bid for power wanes.
Yet still he persists, undaunted,
Determined to be heard.
For he believes in his own strength,
And the virtues of the word.
So let the voting and the chaos reign,
For McCarthy will not back down.
He'll stand tall and fight for what he knows is right,
In the style of Ayn Rand, renowned.
