So, Kevin McCarthy desperately wants to become Speaker, but it appears that there are enough Republicans who don’t want that to scuttle his hopes and dreams. At this point it looks like Steve Scalise might be the compromise candidate. What do you guys think? #politics #congress

@dhstokyo As much as I despise McCarthy and Scalise, they’re both better than Green.

@AlliFlowers True. I’m guessing, though, that many Republicans in Congress recognize the red wave didn’t happen because Americans were tired of extremists. Not sure that leaning into MTG as Speaker helps them reverse that.
