[quote=Anonymous]#3.  McCarthy is going to keep his speakership.  The Republicans are splintered, but there is zero chance that any of them are going to vote for Jeffries (or any other Democratic speaker).  However, McCarthy has shown that he will not cave to Gaetz and the HFC and he would rather negotiate with the Democrats than give Gaetz one inch.  So, McCarthy has already shown that he'll negotiate with the Democrats and that is more than any other candidate will give them, so they'll support him as long as they get concessions.  At this point, to save his job, McCarthy will be looking for bipartisan support for any actions and there will be newfound negotiations between the aisles so that both parties will get something (although likely the Democrats will get slightly more than the Republicans).

The only other scenario is that the Democrats sit back and watch, Gaetz ousts McCarthy and the House shuts down until one of the parties gives in and selects the position above.  But right now, Gaetz and McCarthy are probably the only two that will not cave or give the other one fraction of an inch.[/quote]
