Stuart Varney slams Republicans as McCarthy speakership holdout angers Americans: They have made their point
FOX Business host Stuart Varney argues Republican holdouts should 'take the win' after winning concessions amid McCarthy's speakership battle.
"Varney & Co." host Stuart Varney discusses the ongoing House speakership elections as Rep. Kevin McCarthy fails to secure enough votes, arguing the Republican holdouts "made their point" and are making Americans angry during his "My Take" Friday.
STUART VARNEY: I'll keep this short, on the grounds that we've heard just about everything we want to hear about the speakers' election... It’s making people angry, and I don't want to do that!
There's an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal today which I wholeheartedly agree with:

The holdouts have made their point.
They have won concessions, and some of those concessions will make the House run better.

That’s an improvement: remember when Nancy Pelosi said "you have to pass it to see what's in it!"
The holdouts have got almost everything they wanted, as well as humiliating Kevin McCarthy.
So, take the win. Elect a speaker and get on with the business of government.
