Would set up quite the speakership. Any tense moment/standoff could have a dynamic where just one member (Matt Gaetz) could threaten to try to "vacate the chair" -- set in motion a process to toss McCarthy out of the job -- if the leadership doesn't buckle or offer concessions. — PolitiTweet.org

Also re motion to vacate — can moving the threshold to one earn support from @mattgaetz and some of his crew.

Others say McCarthy would do just that -- urge people to unite -- but say his critics would start nominating others to step in. Names you know and don't know. Scalise. Jordan. Stefanik. Kevin Hern. Some are plausible in such a scenario, some wouldn't want it, some random floats. — PolitiTweet.org

"About two dozen members haven’t said how they would vote, and five are firmly against Mr. McCarthy." Another big question today: what are the undeclared going to do? They've been quiet. https://t.co/RLurqeskfW — PolitiTweet.org
