Sure, the Republicans are a mess but let's not pretend the Dems don't have a hand in what is to come.
Votes for the Speaker of the House are ALWAYS party line. The majority party chooses their person. The Democrats don't want Kevin McCarthy as Speaker. He's lied to them more than once and then when they bail him out (debt ceiling and keeping govt open) he backstabs them.
The Republicans are a mess, it is not the job of the Democrats to fix that.
Tell me...name one reason other than pettiness led to a senior legislature and Speaker emeritus being removed from her office when everyone knew she was away attending a funeral. What was so urgent it had to be done just hours after McCarthy lost his job because the MAJORITY couldn't get their act together?
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
