Because of the 20 brave conservatives, the DC cartel in the House was brought to its knees before the American ppl. This is the new paradigm-coalition government.

THIS IS WHY THERE WAS A FIGHT.
If you were fine with 2 weeks to "count" the vote in Arizona but clutched your pearls while these concessions were negotiated on for a few days, you need to SIT DOWN. https://t.co/tRf0YDicww

McConnell being happy about McCarthy getting the speakership is funny because the people who pushed McCarthy, from MTG to Trump, said that McConnell is “the real problem.” Well, McConnell looks content with the outcome. https://t.co/sbbonTIGnv

I’ve never seen Trump‘s base so angry at him as they are now because of Trump’s support for McCarthy (and McDaniel). Meanwhile, Trump’s allies in the media and Congress are pretending everything is fine. I’ve never seen such a stark divide between Trump’s base and Trump’s camp. https://t.co/5DKEYrfaFk

Everyone who was praising MTG, was right.
Everyone who was praising Gaetz & co, was right.
Everyone who was praising this showdown, was right.

Everyone who trusted Trump, was right.

McCarthy must still get his rules concessions passed by the full house. And there are plenty of Republicans in their slim majority who will reject these rules. McCarthy is already weakened, if he can't get these rules/concessions passed he may be mortally wounded. https://t.co/SI682dIhjR

Passing laws isn't as simple as Schoolhouse Rock made it seem. The Speaker of the House has enormous power over the process, so if he just wants to uphold the status quo, good luck getting anything meaningful passed. This what the Speaker debate is really about. pic.twitter.com/BUAPFcnPKQ
