Principles vs. political expediency…

Looking this long list of Mike’s conservative - MAGA accomplishments in Congress and as Speaker, I see no advantage in keeping him.

That the democrats are willing to help him stay in the job pretty much says it all.

They were more than happy to throw Kevin McCarthy out. What does that tell you?

Here’s at least one small advantage — AVOIDING A DEMOCRAT SPEAKER.

Plenty of reasons why this is so. Jeffries is already the de facto Speaker; Johnson is a useful idiot. And by keeping The Johnson as so-called Speaker - he brings more disharmony and infighting amongst Repubs and conservatives.

Democrats know....  When you enemy is busy destroying themselves... Don't interfere.
