Centrist GOP effort to reinstate McCarthy picks up steam after Israel attacks - Lemmy.world

Oh boy, Democrats still have a chance to disappoint me and reach across the aisle for this clown.
If the result is more cooperation between parties, that sounds good to me. The entire thing that got him ousted was certain far right members saying “you can’t work with the Democrats at all, no matter what,” which is one of the most fucked up, dysfunctional things I’ve heard out of our government in a while
That sounds nice but the GOP has no interest in consensus based governance. Cooperating with them means acquiescing or losing
Or it comes with rules changes and members charging committees?
Because you expect them to keep their word. Which they don’t do.
Burn it all down then?
Personally I don’t see a way back for American democracy barring a literal revolutionary movement in the conservative base that somehow…moderates them? And that’s just not what revolutionaries do, and misaligned with the GOP’s backers want.
