Kevin McCarthy is now Speaker McCarthy after several days and many votes. He refused to budge, but he didn't just sit and wait it out. He made deals. One deal almost lead to a full on fist fight on the floor of the House. I think he gave up too much and today will be consequential in his tenure. The clock is ticking. Speaker McCarthy may have to move out of that office soon. He may have over-promised and the "centrist" Republicans may begin a revolt of their own.
And while McCarthy pivoted to kissing Donald Trump's ass almost immediately, I had some whiplash when I heard Marjorie Taylor Greene do some pivoting of her own. Joe Biden was legitimately elected? QAnon was just a phase? Will the Right's base accept this because they just primaried Liz Cheney out of a job for basically saying the same things?
