Why is it a crock? In a closely divided house it looks like 6-8 members of the majority can dictate who will be speaker. Tiny majority= less leverage because they can always threaten to flip. It’s a slim chance but McCarthy could be elected speaker if he can flip a handful. Willie Brown did this to remain speaker of the California Assembly when the GOP took the majority in 1994. California polliticians remember .
We don’t need a GOP speaker we just need to get rid of Pelousy. It will be the ultimate punishment for her pushing fake impeachment on PDJT. Her replacement is far more likely to be a weak figurehead (just like Beijing Biden) and the Dems Silicon Valley dark money pipeline will take a hit.
You’re kidding right??? NO FREAKING DEMOCRATS would EVER vote for him for Speaker!!!
