I guess this means he’s going to become a lobbyist for the bourbon industry?
Good riddance. I only hope it is a conservative that replaces him. What about Louie Gohmert?

he has probably been bribed handsomely for all of his back-stabbing, and does not need the aggravation anymore.

You really cannot be worse than Boehner. I have little hope for McCarthy, but this has been nothing short of a disaster. The guy couldn’t even communicate basic messages. I used to have respect for Boehner, but he’s been the single biggest failure I’ve ever seen in a leadership position at any level in any organization.
I would love to see someone other than McCarthy, but hopefully he can at least pick one or two issues and actually advance then. I’ll take 25% of a loaf vs none.

Pure Speculation
If he does has an alcohol problem then he probably needs to get out of Dodge as the pressure on his speakership got him drinking more. Once you give up the reigns of power who knows what stories are going to come out. Best to get into a nice recovery center while the storm passes then into a posh lobbying job - time to make his money.
Once again just speculating on to why he’d give it all up
