Clyburn is a D, he knows what he is doing.

Mitch will go for it too > IMO.

He is a D, why not.

We had one of those in the Tennessee General Assembly. I the mid 2000s, a “Republican” made a deal with DemocRats in a closely divided House to elect him the speaker. His treachery was short-lived and he was defeated in the primary the next year.

Ah, reaching across the aisle. The Romney/Boehner/Cheney/Ryan/McCain strat that's always been soooooo successful?

McCarthy has by my observation felt the base's true wishes, and has been (at least acting) more conservative. His latest drive to drop the Military vaccine mandate is correct, and represents us.

If McCarthy gets SOTH, it will be because he respected his Conservative base (us) and NOT the Dems.

Clyburn WOULD say that. (Did they want to make a deal with the GOP — ever?)

Making a deal with dems for votes is like asking a mafioso for a small loan. He’ll get the speaker’s gavel but they will totally own him. If I were a supporter of his and heard that he got votes from dems to put him over the top I’d switch my vote to anyone else and tell everyone else to as well. It would essentially mean the GOP Speaker is a dem puppet and any chance at a conservative agenda would be dead dead dead.
