OK, let’s say MTG succeeds in ousting Mike Johnson, WHO DOES SHE HAVE AS SPEAKER IN MIND? ( I’m guessing herself ).

[If You Want It Fixed - Fix It]

Burn it down. What is left to be embarrassed about besides the WHOLE THING?!

[Alberta's Child]

That’s exactly right.

When the ruling party in Congress has a slim majority, fringe players have their power magnified. So you end up with the leader getting tossed for pushing an agenda that has the support of at least 85% of his own party’s members in Congress.

We already have a de facto Speaker in place. Greene wants to make Jeffries permanent.

And fools like Greene, Boebert, Massie et al think that’s a grand idea.

[Socon-Econ]

MTG does not have the votes for a better speaker. She’s foolish to risk getting a worse one, or leaving Johnson in debt to the Democrats for his speakership, over only two issues (surveillance and Ukraine).

[Husker24]

We don’t have the votes. We’ll be lucky to even retain the House by election time.
