I don’t quite understand, with elections less than five months away, will it was any good to elect an interim speaker? Remember GOP control of the House is threatened in these mid terms, so if they do this, the new speaker could have a very short stay.
“...the new speaker could have a very short stay.”
So what. Main thing is Ryan is gone.
Then they need to have a “come to Jesus meeting” and ask Ryan if he wants the last part of his “legacy” to that he forcibly removed.
Given what Ryan is pushing, it is important to push him out no matter the duration.
