They put off a shutdown for 45 days, so there’s going to need to be bipartisan support in November guaranteed. If Dems help keep McCarthy as speaker, then they can bargain for a better deal on the upcoming vote. It’s clear McCarthy can’t rely on the bat shit crazy Republicans, so he needs the Democrats.
Why would any Dem vote for a Rep?
Honest question, as I truly have no clue.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
I get that on the surface, but we all know McCarthy cannot be trusted to keep his word on any deal.
Because Gaetz and the other 14 make unrealistic demands the rest won’t go along with.
If neither side budges, then the only way we get a speaker is cross party votes.
It should be Rs voting D, but instead I expect Dem leadership to try and round up enough Ds to vote an R into power.
