Byron Donalds of Florida as an alternative to McCarthy. “We are showing the American people that this process works,” said the Pennsylvania Republican Rep. This public fight on the House floor is part of what they wanted Here are some of the stated reasons and accepted motivations of why these lawmakers are unwilling to support McCarthy. A government shutdown would be less severe, but they have been unpopular when lawmakers forced them in recent years. If the US was to default on its debt, it could send the US economy into a tailspin, according to most economists. These lawmakers want painful cuts now to end deficit spending. Ralph Norman of South Carolina has said a non-negotiable for him is if McCarthy is “willing to shut the government down rather than raising the debt ceiling.” That suggests the kind of precarious future funding fights will pose to the economy. “So I think if Steve (Scalise) meets those three needs, he will be able to move forward and take the speakership.” “There are some of the others … who want changes in the rules and there are some others who care about policy,” Buck said. The key question is whether that block of “never-McCarthy” House Republicans is larger than the four votes McCarthy can afford to lose. “There are a few of those 20 that just aren’t going to vote for Kevin McCarthy but would vote for somebody else,” Buck said.

The hardliners are less than half the ultraconservative, ultra-MAGA wing of lawmakers. They aren’t the entirety of the Freedom Caucus. The 20 anti-McCarthy Republicans who so far derailed his bid to become House speaker represent less than 10% of the House GOP. They don’t speak for the majority of Republicans. “Why do people hate Joe Buck?” he asked again.It’s a very small minority of a slim majority that’s kept the House from moving forward and is on the cusp of derailing Rep.
