After Scalise, Emmer is Majority Whip, Stefanik is Conference Chair, Palmer is Policy Committee Chair.
The most likely succession established by McCarthy would be in that order. So if Scalise has been removed because of his cancer, Emmer is the most likely Speaker pro tempore.
That entire team should go with McCarthy as we really do need new blood.
He’s back after aggressive chemo, says cancer reduced. I think he could handle temporary duties, but to be Speaker full time .... guessing no. Gaetz said the other day he wanted to know the status of Scalise’s health issues before he named names for Speaker.
