      Yeah, this is picking between which cancer you want to die from, not lesser evils. All the candidates the GOP are gonna put forward are somehow gonna be worse than McCarthy. Which is fucking ridiculous.

      Vote brain eating amoeba for speaker.

        You should watch BrainDead. You’ll never listen to You Might Think by The Cars the same ever again…

      Just a thought, but maybe something like this

      GOP and Dems agree to a list of concessions

      GOP nominates Jeffries (or just have a few GOP congressmen be conveniently absent).

      Concessions get passed.

      Jeffries steps down.

      Democrats nominate previously agreed on GOP speaker.

      Republicans don’t hold up their end of the bargain, Jeffries just stays as speaker.

      Dems don’t hold up their end of the bargain, GOP still has the majority so they can hold up any legislation.
