Does Kevin McCarthy Have The Votes To Be Speaker?

[gab13by13]

I have this intuition that Elise Stefanik may be a middle ground choice. McCarthy may be too close to Trump.

1. I agree with you

I think Stefanek is going to be the next Speaker.

[Ohio Joe]

2. It's going to be a shit show for whoever gets it

The magat wing will see to that, they are fine burning down their own party... And I encourage them to do so.

6. This is why I want to see an end-run for Liz Cheney

She wouldn't put up with MTG and the rest of the MAGAT wing.

7. Interesting idea but

the Magats who vote for Liz will go through living hell.

9. The magats wouldn't vote for her

But the Dems and a handful of Reps?

3. I think Stefanik has already demonstrated her craven reach for power

She will do whatever it takes to climb over Kev for the Speakership.

4. Either of them look pretty weak, compared to our guy, Hakeem Jeffries

5. Elise Stefanik is a smart Kevin McCarthy,

and more ruthless.

[Me.]

8. No

and I shudder at the thought of her, she is wicked mean
