Opinion by Greg Sargent: Kevin McCarthy’s disastrous loss shows Democrats must defang MAGA

to shut down the government over many extreme demands, including but not limited to the defunding of investigations of Trump. Others could include a functional end to asylum seeking at the border. You could also see the radicals insist that McCarthy withhold support for a debt-limit hike — wielding the threat of default and economic catastrophe — to force any number of such concessions.Democrats tell me the 18 Republicans from Biden districts will be key to their response.

Democrats must employ a range of tools to make the GOP embrace of MAGA priorities and tactics as politically painful as possible for those 18 Republicans.

So ThePlumLineGS doesn’t believe in Representative government? Does he prefer back room deals and oligarchy?

Dems have proven themselves to be the dangerous group not MAGA. The fact that Dems work tirelessly to select republican leaders is grotesque. Rino republicans are the losers but the biggest loser group of Dems: is msm because they remain a steadfast arm of all things corrupt.

Why all the Leftists are supporting McCarthy suddenly?

KAREN MCCARTHY is really glad that this isn't baseball, been after the 3rd strike he'd be OUT.

The MAGAs don’t need any help - they’re doing a great job of it on their own.

It begins, breakup of the GOP. Not good for conservatives, but, could also trigger a split within the Dems among the younger, more liberal members. Interesting times that could go full circle and force cooperation among partisans on each side to stay in power.

“ Democrats must defang MAGA Why would Democrats not want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN Do the corrupt Democrats hate America that much

This headline make zero sense.

Opinions are like Assholes ( like all corrupt Democrats) ….everybody has one…😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

There is a way out. If 5-10 moderate Republicans can agree on a moderate Republican (maybe an ex-governor such as Kasich or Hogan) with the democrats then the house can actually get some work done.

It’s high time Pelosi’s House is restored back to The Peoples House.

The Headline says it all. Kevin McCarthy is really a Democrat.

Maga gop support for trump baffles me n we will never agree on trump. I am with them on their truly conservative ideas. At least someone in the party, what's the party to stand for something concrete.

Kevin McCarthy lost his speakership election. Here's why that's the democrats' fault.

Do not bail out the Republicans. They must be forced to eat their own rancid stew that they created. It's the only way they will ever learn. Do not bail them out. SpeakerVote

The Republicans need to defang themselves.

LOL 🤣🤣🤣 Is this a Babylon Bee Story? The Onion maybe? It's as if you ( & Dems) haven't been trying desperately to do that since 2015. It's been 8 years. Change your attitude. :-)

Dems and 'establishment' R's are the Uniparty.

We can hope. EndTheGOP Permanently

Democrats?

Democrats have to fix the problems your party made?

Haha. Government approved news is sadly predictable. How many decades has it been since the WAPO disagreed with even one Democrat stance

No it doesn’t

Don't worry. Despite McCarthy's loss, any legislation Democrats propose is dead for the next 2 years.

This is the maga agenda. No more McCarthy no more McConnell

Opinion | Senate Democrats must complete the work of the Jan. 6 committeeThe country still needs an explanation for why the national security apparatus failed to protect the U.S. Capitol. I agree . I just got boosted again to protest against the anti vaxxers ! I strongly urge everyone to believe in 'science' and immediately get boosted right now ! We are on the right side of history!! Other crucial matters not addressed to the satisfaction many Americans: * To what extent did Republican members of Congress participate in the conspiracy? * How should the 14th Amendment, Section 3, barring holding office for insurrectionists, apply to the above Republicans? Why must they. They can't do anything.
