What does “far right” mean?

I don’t know anything about this guy, but in recent times after hearing what some “far right” people said, I found myself in general agreement with them on some things. Javier Milei in Argentina is the best recent example of this - I am not sure what is “far right” about him either.

Gaetz is really doing the people's work here. lmao If he's not busy shutting down the government, he's busy fighting members of his own party in congress. Don't these rightwingers have anything better to do?

How much does he get paid to be full time waste of space?

Who’s he going to replace “The Hair” with?

Nobody because he hasn’t got a goober who can get 218.

This is performance fart so that he can be the pointless troll he’s always wanted to be.

Oh, and he’s trying to deflect from the child sex-trafficking “allegations” currently being investigated by the House ethics committee.

Mmm yeah, weird you guys want to talk about what "far right" means when it's not even in the article.

Any thoughts on the GOP morons wanting to oust their own leader?

Does this count as working with democrats? Because there’s no way in hell this works without them.

No sympathy whatsoever for Kevin. This is the result of arrogantly believing he could use the Armageddon caucus at his pleasure and blow them off when convenient to do so.

Well, the Dems are having their own mutiny brewing, so I tend to agree, nice.

“I have enough Republicans where at this point next week, one of two things will happen: Kevin McCarthy won’t be the speaker of the House or he’ll be the speaker of the House working at the pleasure of the Democrats," GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz told reporters after he filed the motion.

pot/kettle by chance? Gaetz needs Dems every bit as much as Kevin does.

Pelosi must be seriously jealous

The small group of right-wing reptiles trying to control the GOP. Who needs enemies when you have friends like that?

Try “far-right”. Did you read the article?

Yes. Honestly, is "what does far right mean?" the only take away from the article?

If you don't know why Matt Gaetz is considered "far right" then just go have a look at his wiki. He's a predatory loon.

I wouldn’t consider him far right, not even close, but I would consider him completely anti-establishment, and very opposed to the Washington power elite structure.

He's a predatory loon.

allegedly, according to the left

McCarthy will only see his sunny side up if the Democrats give to him and save his bacon from his own people.

Oh well, there's a shocker. Well who would you consider far-right?
