This ought to be good.
Careful what you wish for. We may end up with someone even worse than McCarthy. If Gaetz has his way, it will be someone that refuses to compromise with the Democrats regardless of the consequences.
Did the article explain why some Democrats went along with voting him out? If it did, I missed it, and honestly I’m too lazy to read the article again. Thanks!
Because he’s a two-faced liar who went back on his word.
Direct and to the point. Okay!
The far right and the entire Democratic party dislike him for the same reason, which I find kind of telling about the state of the GOP and conservative politics at large.
