Topic	I knew that the Democrats voting out McCarthy would bite them in the ass.

I don't think either party has ever voted for the other party's speaker Republicans have the majority so they're the ones who "voted him out" Neither party has ever voted their own speaker out, either. The democrats could have voted to keep him in, as much as that would have radically broken tradition. They chose not to. Is Johnson their fault? I wouldn't say so. But it's still not wrong to say that the Democrats have some responsibility for ousting McCarthy. --- This is my signature.
