If he is forced to make a deal with Dems to stay speaker, it's a benefit, since he'll be rejecting making deals with the far right GOP members

the far right members have shown they won't honor deals, don't want to govern, and should be shut out of power, not given even more.

McCarthy has said he won't deal with Dems, but... who knows!

And Dems (for now) are basically sitting it out not willing to deal. -- nm - VMan Oct 3, 13:28
it's possible McCarthy steps down and nominates someone else, but that's basically his political career over (not as big of a win, but i'll take it) -- nm - colin Oct 3, 13:27 1
- McCarthy is a non-starter for a power sharing deal, imo. I’m not sure who would be acceptable. -- nm - znufrii, vice president Oct 3, 13:29
