If 5 or 6 Republicans support Jeffries, they will effectively be leaving the Republican party. They are guaranteed to have a primary challenge, and lose any funding from the party. I don’t think that’s likely to happen, but who knows? Maybe a small group will decide they have a better chance running (I) than ®.
The Freedom Caucus absolutely is interested in governing, they just want to govern on their own terms and view any compromise as weakness. They place so little value in a functioning government that they would rather bring it all to a halt than compromise. Remember what got us here in the first place, they were ready to shut the entire government down and got mad when Kevin used Democratic votes to pass a stop-gap. They will take shutting down the House for all business as a consolation prize.

That’s not governing, that’s ruling.
