    The thing is, the threat doesn’t actually work against moderate actions. If the Democrats get a deal done, they can promise to vote to keep McCarthy as part of the deal.

    With all Democrats and McCarthy they would only need his 5 most loyal allies to vote to keep him, and obviously in reality at least 100 House members agree with McCarthy more than the Freedom Caucus fringe.
