I saw a Dem newsletter online—I didn’t save the link—that urged Dems to vote against Ryan. Iirc, it’s a PR bonanza if a party loses its Speaker—leads to the narrative that the party is unpopular with its base and vulnerable in Nov. There was also the idea that Nehlen could be defeated in the general more easily than Ryan.

For once, I’m in favor of the democrats’ strategy.
