GOP rebels continue to blast McCarthy after sending House business into chaos: 'That's just silly'
Fox News
Two House Republicans defended their votes to oust Rep. Kevin McCarthy as House speaker and defended the criticism that they needed Democrat support in order to do so.
"Over the last few months we’ve had moderate members of our party threaten to work with Democrats, to form a coalition government, or do a discharge petition to force a continuing resolution, those kind of silly things, joining with Democrats on policy. When conservatives said ‘hey the speaker doesn’t have 218 votes anymore and we’re going to demonstrate that,’ we knew Democrats wouldn’t support the speaker of course and the speaker didn’t have 218 votes."Good continued, "Vacate the chair has been in place for 200 years except when [former House Speaker] Nancy Pelosi took it out. A confident and secure leader recognizes that he or she serves at the pleasure of, the support of the 218 members and we’re now going to get together and elect someone that reflects the entire conference."
