Kevin McCarthy and the MAGA Wing of the Republican Party

The MAGA wing of the Republican Party will demand this. That's why the slim majority is so problematic for Kevin McCarthy's hopes of being speaker. I have said for quite some time that I don't believe Kevin McCarthy will ever be the speaker of the House because of the influence of the MAGA portion of the party. They run it. There's a reason why Kevin McCarthy, when he announced the commitment to America, had Marjorie Taylor Greene standing next to him on the stage. She's the extremely far right Congresswoman from Georgia. And she represents a contingent, a large contingent, large enough to be disruptive in the House.
