    Just like “let Trump win the primaries cuz he can’t win against Hillary” tactic?

    Surely it wouldn’t backfire twice.

      I don’t think it would ultimately be in the Dems favor to let McCarthy go, especially since they could extract some great concessions from him. He’s a snake though, so short leash and a swift end if he goes back on the deal.
