ReplyNo party/independent voter, FTR. And this is relaying information, not my personal opinion. But before the GOP confirmed Mike Johnson, there was an editorial argument in the Washington Post that suggested the following.
The Speaker of the House is elected from the House’s majority caucus. What the election and ousting of Kevin McCarthy, followed by the failed votes of the last three weeks have demonstrated is that the Republican Party is no longer a caucus. There’s whatever you’d like to call the Trump-leaning group and whatever you want to call the conservatives/moderates/old guard. They are opposed in ideology AND voting behavior, with enough conviction to grind Congress to a stop for three weeks because they lacked sufficient common ground to elect a leader. Therefore, this editorial reasoned, the House is currently a three-caucus body, of which the Democratic Party forms the largest group. The House Speakership, it concluded, should probably have gone to Hakeem Jeffries.
I don’t know if this argument has validity, under the spirit by which the House Speaker is supposed to be elected. (You’d think it may have been reasoned, 200+ years ago, that picking the leader of the majority caucus was intended to provide a head of House all members could respect enough to work with.) But I think we can all agree, going from thin blocks and losses to a unanimous vote on someone no one’s heard of – before the presumptive POTUS GOP candidate could weigh in – was not motivated by finding the perfect candidate.
The terms of McCarthy’s potential ouster were at least public. It’s concerning that we don’t know what concessions and deals had to be made to put an election denier in the Speaker’s seat.
ReplySo his only cons are that he’s just like every other republican? 🤔
