Multiple members emerged from the House GOP’s speaker forum on Tuesday saying they don’t see either candidate being any closer to having the votes needed to secure the gavel on the floor.
Driving the news: “No one is close to 217,” Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.) said after Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La) and Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) pitched members on why they believe they should be the next speaker.
Not a chance unless they are already planning on retiring. Any Republican siding with the Dems will be primaried by some loon candidate in the next election.

About 20 republicans house members on in Biden districts. So they are more worried about winning the general election than primaries. Which means there is plenty of opportunities to make deals.
