It is patently obvious that the so-called ‘Freedom Caucus’ is not interested in coming to an agreement on spending or keeping the government functioning. Rather they want to shut down the government in furtherance of their nihilistic goals. They want government, as currently organized, to fail, and they don’t care who gets hurt as a result if it puts them into power. So does *Rump. Unfortunately, a dimwit like McCarthy is nominally in charge, and couldn’t organize a two car funeral. Maybe not even a one car funeral.
Ultimately, I think even dummy McCarthy will realize he has to fall on his sword, make a deal with the Democrats, and keep his speakership with their support. How long that will take is anyone’s guess. He’ll undoubtedly get primaried out of contention for reelection next year if he does that, but he would get some credit for putting country before party. At least he’ll leave something of an honorable legacy, but I may be hallucinating.

If he gets a book contract out of it, I'm going to throw up.
I think maybe you are Richard. McCarthy is as self absorbed as the insipid clown that he served.
