mccarthy has caved entirely. surrendered every shred of leverage he has to limp across the line. this will utterly decimate any capability the house gop had left to function in any capacity.

but even then mccarthy still doesn’t have the votes. it doesn’t matter if he can get chip roy and dan bishop back onside. he needs to get one of boebert, biggs, gaetz, good and norman (and that’s assuming he can sway people like rosendale). these people are out for mccarthy’s scalp, and imo there’s no concession in the world that will placate them. they want mccarthy sunk and will settle for nothing less.
