So Gaetz says he won't vote for the bill. Ummm... who cares. If Biden supports it, the Dems can almost pass it themselves. But what about his leverage on McCarthy?I don't think McCarthy wanted to go as far as Roy and the "Freedom" caucus wanted to... but oddly enough, I haven't read anything from Gaetz yet. The "Freedom" Caucus has the power to prevent this by expelling McCarthy. But they don't seem to be posturing to do that, before it is passed.Matt Gaetz joins growing rebellion over McCarthy's debt ceiling deal
The Florida congressman looks set to join several other GOP lawmakers in opposing Kevin McCarthy's bill.www.newsweek.com
So it looks like Matt Gaetz identifies as "paper tiger" or maybe just a "rectum" (occasionally full of shit, but generally just taking up space, and smells). Again, I'd rather have that than a constitutional crisis, but what an anal wart that guy is.article said:Gaetz added during the stream that he didn't believe there was any "serious threat" to McCarthy's role as House Speaker even if there is some GOP opposition to the debt ceiling deal.
But all this damn posturing and talk and threats... and then they do nothing.
