That’s a five vote margin in the best of circumstances for Republicans (217-215 until special elections happen in April). The same slim majority Mike Johnson had to deal with before, and we saw how dysfunctional that was. Time for swing district Republicans to start panicking - ThreadSky

Speaker's election was chaotic but after that I don't remember anything that dysfunctional. I'm afraid they will manage just fine with those margins.

She’s talking about republicans feeling safe before now. They have to at least lie to get votes rather than just sitting on their arse

That's been my major hope in all this. They pull another civil war inside their party and fail to accomplish anything they plan.

Remember one of the Dems will be gone too (Henry Cuellar) assuming Biden refuses to pardon him and he gets convicted

I still can't believe Dem House Leadership rushed to his defense against a solid progressive challenger when he was already under investigation.

Time to cram as much fascism into 2 years as you can!

This would be the time for Bernie to pilot that “run an independent with left-ish policies” for red seats and see how that lands. All of those elections will be safe red districts and a good bellwether for how more would go later on.

They will finally get something done and message that the Democrats were the obstacle the entire time.
