Here’s the grand plan of the five members of the “Freedom Caucus”:
Step 1. Rather than hit the ground running after four years out of power in the House, deny party leader Kevin McCarthy the speakership by a handful of votes.
Step 2. ???
Maybe Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) thinks he can step forward and bully and badger his colleagues into accepting him as an alternative despite commanding the minority of a minority of a caucus. More likely, they’ll just be happy to get on television.
The Freedom Caucus members’ fumbling of this moment shows exactly why they’re unsuited for leadership.
