There is NO scenario where the Democrats shoulder any blame for this screaming clusterfuck. None.
republicans can't govern.
Like I said, you can't vote with the "domestic terrorists" and call yourself the adult in the room. The Dems didn't have to cast a single vote for a Repub, a handful simply had to vote present or not show up. It doesn't take 217 votes to elect a Speaker, it takes a majority of those voting. When the Dems go and vote, futilely, for Jeffires they are in fact knowingly voting with Gaetz and the other idiots for chaos.
