McCarthy getting it came with a clause that any single R can kick him out.
I think normally it’s a certain percentage. And the “moderate” Rs that vote for it would know that they’d be in this same place again.
FWIW, McCarthy is well known in DC circles to not be an intelligent person.
Yes but I think it’s in the house rules currently. I could be mistaken on how that works.
But even if it happened by mistake, allowing a democratic speaker would be unthinkable for any republicans, even moderates of which there are very few.
