5 Rs have voted to vacate the chair. McCarthy is out unless the Dems save him.
Good riddance.

Any good reason why the Dems wouldn't save him? He's practically one of their own.
His job is done, at this point a loose end. He fooled people into supporting him long enough to get their agendas through.
Alternatively, ammunition to silence Republicans who would turn against him: "See, they're siding with the Democrats! It's actually Gaetz and crew that are the bad ones!"
Extract more concessions.
