Optics.
Perhaps it is the plan to make DJT speaker of the house. The optics would not be as good if 45 opposed McCarthy because he wanted to be speaker of the house.
Now Trump can get a nomination without that fight against McCarthy.
After all, McCarthy is the first failed speaker vote in 100 years. We all know Trump's world consists of Longshots.
I don’t think DJT being Speaker is part of the plan. It doesn’t make sense to me. I could be wrong but I think it’s another bandaid we’re trying to use to piece together parts of the Plan that we don’t understand, or that haven’t been revealed yet. I think we just have to be patient a little while longer.
