Part 5/10:

Initial reactions to this deal suggest it may evoke memories of previous Republican conflicts, particularly those seen during the tenures of former Speakers John Boehner and Kevin McCarthy. Emily's perspective indicates that the underlying dynamics that led to a divided party back then are resurfacing now with newer elements influencing the conversation.

Musk and allied parties have taken more direct influence in the negotiations, leading to a marked shift away from conventional compromise politics. The changes Musk pushed resulted in a drastic retreat into a position that is both hardline and short-sighted, which led to most of the caucus rejecting the deal outright.
