The Democrats screwed up the Speaker vote in classic Pelosi fashion
PATRIOTS IN CONTROL
They should've let McCarthy win in the first round or two. They should've let enough votes to slide over to McCarthy in order to (1) send the (dishonest) signal that they are collaborative, (2) try to get a favor or two in return, and (3) keep the Freedom Caucus from getting representation on committees and rules changes that together will make it impossible for the Dems to get anything done in the House for two years.
Once again, the Dems crapped all over an opportunity. What morons.
I’m pretty sure McCarthy won’t let them down. Time will tell if they let the freedom caucus gang up on the rules committee.
