While that is true I doubt there is a person alive who could get this done. NO ONE could possibly balance the ridiculous demands of the so called “Freedom Caucus” with those of the rest of the GoP, let alone the Democrats.
I still think the only way this gets resolved is by McCarthy and other Moderate Republicans working a budget deal with the House Democrats directly, breaking the FCs power to sink the deal. In the end all these FC idiots are going to do is force the budget to become far more bi-partisan and they are absolutely not going to like what ends up being passed.
Shouldn’t be too hard to ignore the freedom caucus and reach across the aisle. The only thing it would cost him is the Speakership.
