@DotardTed I don't think it sounds like worry so much as acceptance of the role he has to play.
It sounds to me like #McCarthy accomplished his goal of giving speakership a shot, and now it's up to the #House whether they keep him in the position or not.
He did what he wanted to do, and the rest is hardly worth worrying about too much.
If House members are so off the rails that they'd vote to halt business in the chamber, well, this is a problem solving itself for him.
