Why would the dems want to keep someone in that position who from the start had been leashed by a small extremist group within his own block to do their bidding? Why do people expect them to support a speaker from the opposition who during his tenure hasn't done anything to convince them of being the right person for that job? On the contrary, McCarthy and his party did everything to widen the gap.
From the onset McCarthy's position was weak, always at the mercy of aforementioned small group, and everyone knew that he would be gone as soon as he loses their support. If the situation had been the same with only the parties exchanged not a single republican would have come to McCarthy's aid, either. |

Well they did more than not come to his aid, the actively voted against him. The ouster would have failed if not for them. Of course now they are going to have to deal with a replacement that will almost certainly be worse on them than McCarthy was so they may have shot themselves in the foot.

I can't help thinking the ultimate loser in the short term will be Ukraine.

Matt Gaetz calls Kevin McCarthy a “feature of the swamp” after reporter tells Gaetz that people think he is a narcissist.
“It's the benefit of this country that we have a better Speaker of the House than Kevin McCarthy.” “Kevin McCarthy couldn't keep his word. He made an agreement in January regarding the way Washington would work, and he violated that agreement. We are $33 trillion in debt. We are facing $2.2 trillion annual deficits.” “We face a de-dollarization globally that will crush Americans working class Americans. Kevin McCarthy is a feature of the swamp. He has risen to power by collecting special interest money and redistributing that money in exchange for favors.”

Just when you thought you'd seen it all before.
Putin, XI Jinping and Kim Jong Un must all have front row seats.

Those leaders you list are old school dictators and learned everything they know on how to oppress and massacre their populations from German and the British methods of exercising political will.

The USA seem to enjoy being populistic idiots. i wonder how long it will take until someone says enough and makes Matt Gaetz swallow his teeth.
