House Democrats have begun internal discussions about how to deal with the prospects of a chaotic situation: The possibility that Speaker Kevin McCarthy could lose his job in an unprecedented vote on the floor.
While no decisions have been made, some of the party’s moderates are privately signaling they’d be willing to cut a deal to help McCarthy stave off a right-wing revolt – as long as the speaker meets their own demands.
Publicly, Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries has not weighed in on how he’d want his members to manage a challenge to McCarthy’s speakership, saying it’s hypothetical at this point. But privately, Jeffries has counseled his members to keep their powder dry, according to multiple sources, a recognition it’s better for Democrats to keep their options open as the government funding fight plays outs.
Well a lot of time was put into getting McCarthy confirmed shouldn’t we give him a chance now that we are a year into his term that he has done nothing with because he’s an incompetent leader with no friends?
America needs more incompetent leadership like McCarthy because that’s what we do here. We didn’t elect George W Bush for nothing. It was to ruin the country and we will keep doing it because it’s the American way for like 25% of the country.
