"We put sharp knives in the hands of children, and they used them," Cole told The Atlantic of GOP lawmakers who backed McCarthy's removal as speaker.

I would slightly disagree with the congressman, as I do not think the republican majority will end until either gerrymandering in states like my own end, or the party splits into moderates and the far-right.

That's a thoughtful perspective and one can certainly see where you're coming from. Take the situation in Pennsylvania for example, where gerrymandering has been a major issue. The state has been redrawn in such a way that it leans heavily towards one party. This can indeed cement a majority unless there are significant changes to the district boundaries or a split within the party, as you mentioned. It's interesting to ponder how a split between moderates and the far-right within the GOP might impact the political landscape. What do you think could be the potential consequences of such a split?

That he’s correct and that the republicans are a mess right now and it’s going to negatively affect them
