Gaetz is conducting himself exactly like the left in dictating to the entire party that it’s either agreement with his exact “principles” and demands, or take the entire House membership down insomuch as what should be the position of dictating to the Democrats, not to your own party.
Are you aware the terms Gaetz and the other holdouts laid out was agreed to by Kevin McCarthy? Simply because Gaetz is the most vocal of the group does not make this his agreement solely. So your entire premise is false.

No, that’s incorrect. That you even try to dictate to me what my actual premise is, it’s yet more evidence of the severe problems within the Republican Party, both in Washington and out amongst the voters.
My premise is based on the situation on the ground as it exists at the relevant moment, as well as a look towards the bigger picture of not just tomorrow or next week, but next year.
Principles don’t pay the bills, taking the best possible action under all relevant circumstances and conditions in the specific moment is what gets you to the next opportunity, to the next, and so on does pay the bills.
Y’all want a perfect scenario wherein your boxes are checked and we achieve the ideal outcome. The government is far too fricked up at the fundamental levels to expect perfection at this particular point in history. Your task is to make the least bitter lemonade with all the lemons we have before us.
