We absolutely know it’s trillions. The Demonrats really played themselves. They had a weak RINO Derper puppet as Speaker who gave them what they wanted (one rating placed him at just barely above 50% Conservative, which is close to being a left-winger). Now it stands that Jim Jordan, who has an over 90% Conservative rating from the same source, could replace him. Or, even more wildly, President Trump (the only downside to a Speaker Trump is that it would curtail his ability to be campaigning for next year in having to tend to House business).
Yup, the Demonrats may truly regret having assisted 8 heroic patriotic Republicans in getting rid of McCarthy.
I would have thought that Jeffries would look for 20 Democrats. The ones who may live in districts that are more moderate and in places like in the Midwest or in the South. Give them permission to vote for McCarthy so he survives.
Someone said that McCarthy made three big deals with Joe Biden and the Biden Administration got everything they wanted while the GOP got almost no concessions each time. And McCarthy had the support of nearly all RINOs. Only the Freedom Caucus was giving him a hard time.
Maybe Jeffries think that a government shutdown would work out for the Democrats because the Republicans will get all the blame. So they were happy to torpedo McCarthy.
