Both Republican and Democratic senators emphasize that any successor to Kevin McCarthy will inherit the divided government that befell him — with another shutdown looming.

Obviously, they need to fins someone who has bipartisan support. By this, I mean 2/3 of the House parties (Democrat, Republican, MAGA.)

But will they? Seems like the maga group want one that’s frothing and screaming.
The question isn’t will MAGA support Republicans, its will Republicans support Democrats or MAGA
I think we know the answer
But who? Former speaker John boener? I just can’t think of someone that Republicans AND Democrats could openly support. Speaker election is 50% + 1
Fuck if I know, I’m just enjoying the show.
John Boener isn’t in office anymore is he?
The speaker doesn’t need to be a member of the house
Technically sure, but it will be. A non-member has never been elected speaker.
A speaker has never been ousted, either… till now.
We’re in uncharted territory
