I don’t think anyone is realistically considering why McCarthy agreed to this bullshit budget with Bidan. He was not out negotiated, he intended this outcome!
My thought:He always had revenge in mind since he was challenged seriously for leadership.The humiliation of a person with great power, is never forgiven by them.
Do you know what it reveals when someone constantly speaks with a soft voice, like him? Never showing anger, they are typically passive aggressive and most likely a very angry person.McCarthy was always going to get revenge for being challenged. And he did it in the biggest way possible. It was the ultimate fuck you to Congress but also to all Americans that didn’t want him speaker, and it was s large majority. If he is a narcissist, he will never forget a challenge to their pride, and they will plan a long time to get payback. (I’m not a doctor and cannot say for sure he is one, but he seems to fit some patterns)
He laid in wait for the perfect time to screw the republicans. But he also knew Democrats would back him if republicans tried to fire him. He may be taking a chance, buthis revenge dream had to be fulfilled.
Remember what one of his henchmen said to the 20 MAGA that were fighting McCarthy: “You all will never be on a committee, we will take all you power and influence away.” Basically they would destroy them.
This was war to McCarthy and his henchmen guys,RINO’s won’t lose to America First, but they never mind losing to Democrats.
Remember what Sundance says:
In deep Republican politics, ideology -the policy of politics- is a tool. The end goal is always money. Democrats want power, Republicans want money. Democrats use money to gain power; Republicans use power to get money. This is the core difference in their business model. This truism is also why there’s no pushback to the ideological policy of the Democrats. Republicans can simply be paid off.
