Maybe they will have an epiphany and realize that backing the GOP Establishment is destroying this country. Scalise is a rubber stamp for McCarthy who was a rubber stamp for Ryan who was a rubber stamp for Boehner. It is time to try something different for once.
And maybe Putin will have an epiphany and withdraw from Ukraine, apologize for the invasion, order that reparations be paid by Russia, then kill himself.
Or we can deal with things as they actually are rather than as we wish they were.
People who have been moderates in Congress for decades, and who were willing to support McCarthy through 15 ballots and then overwhelmingly on the Motion to Vacate aren't going to suddenly reverse course. They are who they are, which is people who generally like things to keep running. They're not radicals. If we had a GOP Senate and President, and the overall course of the country were different, then sure, you'd peel more of them away. But even then, you'd still have some moderates who wouldn't budge, and we don't have enough of a margin to overcome that.
Said it since this began - this will end up actually hurting the conservative cause more than helping it.
