Kevin McCarthy will not run for speaker again after the House ousted him from the top leadership post in a historic vote on Tuesday, a move that threatens to plunge House Republicans into even further chaos and turmoil.
And if a moderate (relatively speaking) Republican teams up with Democrats to get and keep his Speakership, Gaetz will simply hold daily votes to vacate the position. He won’t care if he loses every time. He’ll grind the House to a halt to have his 50th, 60th, and 70th votes until he gets his way.
Apparently, there’s a Republican-led effort to kick Gaetz out of Congress. I don’t see this actually passing, but I’d love to see it happen.
