I don't know. Seems like it's been sustainable for a while. Is this not just an extension of the Tea Party? It's been working for them.
What doesn't seem sustainable to me is the Repubican party caucus. The right is incensed that McCarthy "caved to the Democrats". I suspect a motion to vacate will be raised.
To be fair, the Republicans as a whole are still pretty united, this is just the Freedom Caucus people trying to throw around their brand of extra strength crazy.
McCarthy made a deal with the devil to win them over to get made Speaker, and they are going to taunt him with that every chance they get. He gets what he deserves from that alliance, which is fine by me.
