MTG tears into the 19 Republicans who voted against McCarthy, calls their rebellion 'the worst thing that could possibly happen'
"Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said that the Republican Party is endangering its hard-won House majority amid bitter infighting over Rep. Kevin McCarthy's bid to become House Speaker.
"If the base only understood that 19 Republicans voting against McCarthy are playing Russian roulette with our hard earned Republican majority right now. This is the worst thing that could possibly happen," Greene, a Georgia Republican, wrote on Twitter.
Greene was responding to speculation that 6 Republicans could side with Democrats to pick a House Speaker and form a coalition if the deadlock over McCarthy's candidacy can't be resolved.
California Rep. Jim Costa told CBS News that discussions are underway among some centrists about the proposal."
