If we’re honest, most of us would admit that we’d love to know what’s said between members of Congress when they’re speaking with each other on the floor of the House or Senate. Can you imagine how much more we’d dislike most of them if we could hear what they say when we’re not looking or listening?
For example, that face-to-face conversation between Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy as the final vote was about to be taken that would elevate McCarthy to the Speaker’s chair.
Unfortunately, there’s no sound on the video that photo is taken from, but that doesn’t mean we have to remain in the dark when it comes to the words exchanged between the two.
According to Bad Lip Reading, we have new insight as to what was being said as the votes were being tallied in the House.
For those of you not familiar with their work, The Mary Sue explains the purpose of Bad Lip Reading:
Bad Lip Reading is an anonymous YouTube channel that dubs over news footage and scenes from film and TV shows with nonsensical dialogue. The dialogue always more or less matches the movements of people’s mouths, and some surprising storylines end up emerging from the chaos.
The first video from Bad Lip Reading shows what was said between Gaetz and McCarthy. Take a look:
And now we have Gaetz’s other name, also courtesy of the folks at Bad Lip Reading.
Vain Guy is appropriate. Then again, so is Superperv.
