As Speaker Kevin McCarthy's Republican foes consider a plan to take away his gavel, they're also reportedly 'coalescing' around a possible replacement.
As Speaker Kevin McCarthy's Republican foes consider a plan to take away his gavel, they're also reportedly "coalescing" around a possible replacement.After the 2022 midterm elections, a significant group of House Republicans opposed Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s bid to become the next GOP House speaker, but they struggled to settle on a credible rival. It’s one of the reasons the far-right members were able to delay McCarthy’s effort but not stop it.
last week, for example, that McCarthy’s intra-party foes “are privately mulling who they could back if the California Republican loses his gavel.”quoted Rep. Dan Bishop, a member of the House Freedom Caucus, saying, “I think I know who the right person is,” though the North Carolina Republican would not disclose the name he had in mind.
There are a variety of questions hanging over the process, none of which has easy answers. The first, of course, is whether far-right GOP members would actually force the issue.
