Sahil Kapur: ‘You Can’t Change the Physics of Congress, the Mass of Congress Simply by Replacing a Speaker’

‘Democrats still control the Senate and the White House’

RUSH EXCERPT:

KAPUR: "That is where things are right now. She doesn’t seem to have a whole lot of friends. Even some of the Republicans who voted to remove Kevin McCarthy, including Matt Gaetz who spoke just a few days ago, do not support removing Mike Johnson at this moment. They are battle-scarred from that experience last fall. Things did not end up getting any better for them because Mike Johnson ended up just passing the government funding bill along the lines of what Kevin McCarthy had negotiated. You can’t change the physics of Congress, the mass of Congress simply by replacing a speaker. Democrats still control the Senate and the White House."
