Whoever it is will know the real consequences of lying to members and breaking promises made to them.

Mcarthy called their bluff and lost. The next guy might think twice.
Good. Let's see them try and lose support of suburban American by freezing up the functions of the government of the most powerful economic and military might in the history of the planet and throw them closer into the arms of moderate Democrats. Great idea.

He was their best buddy .. until they helped vote him out.
McCarthy hated the Dems and the Dems hated him. He barely had a relationship with the minority leader. That's why McCarthy didn't get anything passed and was in this budget battle.

And McCarthy himself at his press conference said he wouldn't take Democrat help no matter what it was.

Yes everyone is going to be a Democrat now because some national parks might close during a shutdown. Thank you for your brilliant political analysis Austin.

He had an impossible line to walk and he failed. Not a surprise, really.

Now let's watch the Republicans descent farther into disarray. This is just getting started.

The party who gets blamed for shutdowns takes a hit politically. We live in a closely divided country. Not good politics to hold up the people's business as we've all seen through the years. That's just a reality.

Biden's approval numbers are terrible because of inflation and it's effect on the economy.

I simply disagree with you that moderates are so stupid they don't know that leftist wreckless spending policies are to blame.

It's amusing to me that Republicans finally care about spending and fiscal discipline now that we've had a Democrat as president.

It's always the same boring story. Find religion about fiscal discipline when a Democrat is in office. Lose the plot when a Republican is president. Yawn.
