The Gaetz maneuver is a complicated thing, isn't it.

One member can file a motion to vacate, but it takes a majority of the House to remove the Speaker. As long as Johnson has the support of at least 217 Republicans, he can’t be deposed as Speaker.

You’re not correct.

You need to fight to get rid of Trudeau.

Rs will have to back them in it since it would require a majority.

Hakeem doesn’t have the votes, he’d need at least 5 Pubbies, not likely.

Not correct. To get elected speaker McCarthy had to make numerous concessions, one of them was to only require 8 dissenters to remove him.

Johnson made no such (or any) concessions.

Worthless comment unless you complete your sentence.
