    Probably because he went back on the deal that he made with Biden after the Debt Ceiling thing. If he had stuck to that, he might have gotten enough Democrats to vote “present” to have survived the vote.

    But why throw any support to a person you can’t trust?

      Yeah I think this.

      You can’t even make deals w/ him anymore because he won’t abide by them. On top of that, he has to bend to the most fringe aspects of his party to stay in power so it appers that he’s reaching the same conclusions (impeachment, reneging on his words, etc) as a more conservative speaker, w/ just the semblance of moderate leanings
