    It may have been a no win choice for Dems, but I’m a little worried that we’re gonna end up with a much worse speaker.

    Keeping McCarthy would have at least been fucking over Gaetz.

        Yeah, that seems like it’s best case.

        Dream case would be the less right reps putting up someone sensible enough for Dems to support.

        This predicates a sensible candidate existing, so will remain a dream (and still a shitty one, like dreaming a full day of school just before waking up on a school day).
