Whoever gets 218 votes first is Speaker.
If McCarthy fails, and the Democrats are only 4 votes short of 218, then, yes, your next Speaker will probably be Nancy Pelosi or Hakeem Jeffries.
If so the democrats still have a shot of stonewalling congress a Pelosi lives event.

Yeah. Nice try. What happens if McCarthy is speaker and does an end around
conservatives to work with RATs to pass bills?
Will that fill you with joy?
And McCarthy will do it.
It will be like Pelosi is back in charge.
