posted by HereticI have no idea what the resolution to any of this is.
Apparently even a non-member can become the Speaker....so when do one of the crazy people nominate Trump!?! How much fun would that be?
I guess what could happen is another member - I've heard Scalise - starts picking off McCarthy votes so he eventually drops out. But I have a feeling no one wants to give in to those 20 people. Not to mention you need at least 14 of them to vote with the majority.
Crazy thing is I think everyone goes home for 3 weeks after this. So when do people get sick of the theatrics and start leaving? I don't see any Dems crossing over to break the gridlock.
