McCarthy is blaming Democrats for not voting to: 1) Keep him as SOTH, and 2) not voting for Gym Jordan to replace him.

OK, shoe on the other foot: If ANY Republican voted for Jeffries to be Speaker, that (or those) Republican would be monikered a "traitor," his/her funds for 2024 re-election would be cut off, s/he would be primaried, and perhaps his/her life would be threatned.

And McCarthy expects Democrats to assume the risk his party would refuse to take.

And I've given up on Republicans to make sense. Or be honest.
