If you thought Kevin McCarthy’s woes would subside even for a minute, you were wrong. Next up, there are some serious grumbling about his proposed House rules package, which is up for a vote today. I explain why in today’s piece.

He's very limited in what he can do. A slim, fractured majority, and only in the House.
We knew it was going to be a shit show going in. The schadenfreude of watching him humiliate himself, and by extension the GQP, is just a perq to mitigate the mess.
@ScottSoCal @jaykuo so what happens when they refuse to support a debt limit increase?
@atzanteol @jaykuo
The same thing that would happen if we weren't enjoying KKKevin humiliate himself.
USA defaults on debt, leading to devaluation of the US Dollar, rampant inflation, and an economic tailspin. For which the GQP will be blamed.
@ScottSoCal @jaykuo
You realize we're the ones who will suffer though right? The (even more) crazies are gaining power. This is bad for all of us.
