So can democrats in the house vote for a Republican house speaker? Like can we force them to pick a centrist? https://www.axios.com/2023/01/02/mccarthy-speaker-vote-rule-changes

  Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy still short on votes in bid to become speaker even after concessions
  
  from Mike Allen
  
  McCarthy has offered extraordinary concessions, including allowing members to easily fire him at any time, to secure the votes for speaker.

  @seldo what I don’t understand is the GOP holdouts’ endgame—they’ve already squeezed blood out of the stone, gotten ridiculous concessions and guaranteed no reasonable legislation will leave house committees. At this point, they’re making it impossible to put forward their own cockamamie oxygen deprived proposals, which is just fine for all of us…
