    @jon-nyc said in What will the Speaker vote look like?:

    Maybe they want last minute concessions?

    Maybe they want him to enter in a weakened, embarrassed state?

    Maybe they want to nominate Trump?

    Maybe they just want to preen for their audience?

    Maybe some combination of the above?

    All possible. Any of them likely other than #1 and #4?

    What concessions would they be seeking?

    @George-K I think rules and investigative committees and assignments.

    Only non-witches get due process.

                    We really need somebody who can get rid of this terrible partisanship, and combine stupidity and craziness in equal measure.

                    I was only joking

                              @Mik supposedly 4 Republicans voted for the insurrectionist election denier.

                                  I'd love to see a deal between McCarthy and the Democrats to have 50 dems vote present in return for (1) no shutdown/debt ceiling brinkmanship and (2) a promise to always allow Ukraine funding a floor vote.
