How does Boebert voting present change anything? McCarthy still has to get 218.

I thought a vote of 'present' lowered the winning number threshold

I thought that’s only if they don’t vote at all but maybe I’m wrong on that.

No it was not. This is how negotiations work. Concessions were won.

You mean some palm greasing... If these people really believed in being Patriots, they would not cave...

I guess everyone has their price.

Blind trust. There are two things that could happen

1.) The concessions are included, Republicans all vote for it and all is as promised

2.) McCarthy says frick the 20 and proposes a traditional frick the American People package and 20 democrats vote for it in place of the 20 Patriots.

No, you have to have a majority of the total number voting. If someone votes present, it lowers the total number voting.

They performed two illegal impeachments on the last President.

This is who they are.
