re: Gaetz broke the GOP establishment lineage. That's why they are lashing out.

The Republicans can’t be mad about what happened either because sitting on their arse as the majority and breaking promises of what would be done by them is why they are often relegated to minority status.

How many elections have been won by Republicans by shutting down the government?
Some are less interested in winning he next elections, and more interested in avoiding economic collapse

Donald Trump endorsed two of these people to be Speaker of the House.

See this one going around but a reminder that the plot of Young Guns was a group of pistoleers welcoming in a sociopathic outsider who eventually took over as their leader and resulted in everyone getting killed.

Ironically Young Guns 2 was about that same sociopath leading a new group of followers and former hanger ons by saying "this time I will really do what I promised" and then getting everyone killed.

Ridding someone who isn't willing to fight at the negotiation table for the conservative demands is helping the democrats? I don't see it. I think ousting someone who bends knee to the other side for paltry "wins" is a good thing.

You mean MAGA Trump supporters do not agree with Trump on everything? How does this fit with the Cult45 narrative?

Trump has a long long history of being very friendly with the establishment. Endorsed Ryan and McCarthy. Hired Mitch's wife...
But for some reason he's still hailed as the hero we need to fight the people he seemed to prefer.

Your premise is false. It's both parties shutting down the government and the GOP getting most of the blame because of the media.

The GOP won in 2009, 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2022

Because he listens to his MAGA base. We do not always agree(like the vaccine and McCarthy) but errs on the side of the MAGA base and the MAGA base realizes that inconsequential establishment concessions are needed to get the bigger picture MAGA priorities moving (like secure borders, no war, trade reciprocity, good judges, lower taxes, lower regulations, etc.).

"Blame" and the "reason" are two different things.

Well exactly. After winning the GOP did nothing. Even after taking the House in 2022 McCarthy CONTINUED to do things the DC way which is tantamount to nothing. Just pass CRs to a bloated federal budget.
THAT. IS. WHY. MCCARTHY. IS. GONE.

Some are. Some Magtards are, too. But a lot of Ronbots just want to make sure it's not forgotten that McCarthy was Trump's man.

Ironic Republicans think they should run a country when they can't even keep their own party on the same page.

I just want to be clear, I assume anyone defending McCarthy implicitly approves of his performance as speaker. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

How can you outright declare this is not some step in the direction of doing that?
I mean, I’m not outright declaring that it is, but I do know there was nothing else anyone was doing that seemed to be pushing things in that direction, which is why I don’t understand being 100% outright dismissive of something that at least seems to be trying. The idea that one can declare that this will somehow absolutely make things worse seems the least credible position at this point, given what we know and have historically seen.
