CNN is describing Kevin McCarthy’s chaotic path to the speakership as a fiasco, marked with extremism, venom and at least one incident of near violence on the floor of the House when a colleague had to physically restrain a Congressman from Alabama from going after Matt Gaetz. The whole gooey mess makes me want to pop the cork on a bottle of good Champagne, which is where we get the word fiasco in the first place.
