I'm not sure if they brought that as a symbol of reigning in the chaos or it's going to be used on Gaetz for getting them into this mess.

Either they go a few rounds and vote McCarthy back in claiming the urgency to give Israel a bunch of money that was earmarked for Ukraine or it goes really long and they end up having to form a weird consensus House of Democrats plus 4 or 5 Republicans who dont intend to run again.

Theyre eventually going to come out of the room with a Speaker and were going to have no idea how they came to that deal and what the rules are for the Speakership.

Jordan has been pivoting for majority leader the past day or so.

And with respect to Scalise, everyone has a plan until you hit the floor.

I think Scalise is the lesser of two evils here. He already had the 2nd spot so he probably has more pull inherently and he doesnt work with the extreme MAGA as closely as Jordan but he is still going to be sympathetic to them.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. There's still the issue of those who voted to kick him out last week. Also if it is theater it's a very stupid show.

Whoever wins needs 217 votes (there are two vacancies).

Ken Buck has already said he will vote present every time.

All 212 Democrats will vote for Jefferies in every round of voting.

Whether it is Scalise or Jordan, they can only have a maximum of three defectors or we do this over again.

What's funny is that the lesser of two evils is likely to end up exactly like McCarthy... largely inept and quickly replaced once he dares to actually have a functioning House.
