Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is already sowing doubt about House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) fitness for leadership as Republicans look ahead to next year’s midterms — and McCarthy’s likely bid for House speaker if the odds tilt in the GOP’s favor.
Although it is certainly not the desired result, it would be awfully freaking funny if Cheney and Kinzinger held onto their seats, Republicans won back the House by just two votes, and Cheney and Kinzinger voted for like Ronald Reagan to be Speaker. Pelosi gets her gavel back and the GOP and the press are left utterly stunned.
