But then they could just call another vote for speaker? Not sure this would be the play, but if it was, I don’t see he can renege without just incurring the same fate?
Yeah that’s a good point and I’m not sure of the particulars. However, assuming the hard right still wants to remove him, democrats have the leverage to affect the vote.

Depends on if the House rule is “any Rep can move to vacate” or if it’s “any Rep of the majority party can move to vacate.”
Though it seems if we wait a few more weeks, that might be the Dems anyway lol.
