I agree with you and am putting that stance out wherever I can!
Consider: Who stands to HURT the most when there is no Speaker in November and there IS a government shutdown? THE GOP (besides the American people and the world economy, but this concept is beyond the interest or understanding of the average uninformed voter)

Even if it had shut down two weeks ago and many would blame the GOP, there would be those who would have still blamed the Dems and/or Biden. The GOP, who loves them some media hits, is under a barrage of such hits now. I doubt anyone would not blame them now! And boy would they get hit in 2024!
So how to they save themselves? VOTE IN JEFFRIES. It's a win-win for them in many ways. They can push out the MAGA extremists but not have to take the blame for it. They've never found the spine to do it themselves, so now they can blame the Dems.
They might be able to save their party, as I truly believe that if a viable third party emerges, they will siphon many more voters from the right than the left.
With the Dems in control of the House, Senate and WH---trust me, I know this is a gamble on their part--but they could point to any problems and say "its THEM not US"
Yes, there is a distinct chance that this backfires on them, that the Dems get work done. But IMHO they have painted themselves into a corner and there is no way out without getting that paint wet. They have to find the path that causes the least mess for themselves.

Miselle - please send the Republicans in the House this plan of action. They are at loose ends and need a plan; this could work for everybody.
Thank you. I have no "ins" in DC. Anyone who does--or those who use social media which are do not--are welcome to forward my plan.
