    This is what happens when you go against the far right

    Seems like Dems propping him up so he doesn’t need the alt-right would have better than giving the alt-right more control of the party.

    Do we think Gaetz gets speaker next?

      McCarthy is the far right. Just because there’s another faction of the far right that’s turned against him doesn’t change that, and it certainly doesn’t make him worth allying with. The Democrats tried a policy of spinless complacency for thirty years. It didn’t work. It’s not going to start working now.

      McCarthy already reneged on deals he made with dems for their vote. Why the hell would they try make more deals with him? Especially when he explicitly said, before the vote, that he would not negotiate with Dems?

      Here’s the thing, the far right arm of their party is anathema. They won’t give any of them the speakership.
