The democrats voted to oust this guy and trust me you reap what you sew. The next will be worse.
Surely you must be joking. Matt Gaetz spent several days telling everybody that he was going to oust Kevin McCarthy. Then he did.
The Republican speaker of the House was removed from his position by the craziest contingent of the Republican party.
The self sabotage is nutty.
Go look at who voted to say yes. Look at how many democrats said yes. They could have said no.
So keep someone horribly damaging and untrustworthy around because things could get worse? Sounds like a cowards/defeatist mindset, you should always strive for better and removing those who do damage.
Worse how?
The Speaker is ultimately a mouthpiece for the party. Speakers do not advance a personal agenda, they do what the “majority of the majority” wants them to do. The new Speaker will be no different in that regard.
However, a Speaker is also the point of contact for the opposing party. A Republican Speaker can disagree with Democrats about literally everything, but they shouldn’t lie to Democrats, renege on deals, etc. If nobody can trust you, then you are worthless as an intermediary. So McCarthy was among the worst possible people for the job.
