Yes, but: We don’t even have Scalise yet, and it’s not clear we’re going to get him. We may well end up w/Patrick McHenry as “extended temporary” Speaker. No, I don’t know how that works either.

Ahhh, the Charlie Sykes theory of McHenry continuums. I like it.

Honestly if I was compelled to lay down money, settling on McHenry would be my bet at this point.

Some of them would rather always be screaming in opposition (preferably in full makeup on Fox) than actually doing the hard work of governing, so yeah, that scenario is perhaps not as implausible as it appears.

I live in hope for such an outcome! MAGA needs to climb back into the dustbin of fascist history.
