I can’t imagine a scenario in which that doesn’t end up with them losing their seats. If they’re in a competitive district, they’re not going to pick up a lot of independents, and their campaign funds from the party will dry up. If they’re in a deep red district, they probably get primaried out from the right.
And then we have a democratic Speaker in a house with a Republican majority, who doesn’t have a coalition that agrees on much, and could easily turn on him like we saw with McCarthy.
If only that was viable. It’s going to be a wild next 13 months.
