(5,829 posts)but no Dems voted to help McCarthy stay on and since he is more moderate than the current frontrunners for Speaker its even more doubtful than any Dems will vote for a Repub for Speaker.

(53,194 posts)if the next Speaker doesnt make Benito Mussolini look like a flaming liberal, it will be the Democrats doing and Gaetz promises to make like a tree and leave.
When the majority only has a margin of 3-4, and you have at least a group of 8-10 that are totally insane, eventually you will run into a situation where the minority does indeed have some power. See the ousting of one Kevin McCarthy.
