CNN Analyst Blames Democrats' Identity Politics for Ongoing Speaker Crisis, Urges Cooperation to Restore Order

CNN analyst David Gregory blames Democrats' "identity politics" for the GOP's inability to elect a House Speaker.

More than a week after Rep. Matt Gaetz stripped Kevin McCarthy of the gavel, Republicans still have no Speaker amid international crises.

Gregory calls it an "embarrassment" for Republicans but says Democrats should stop "zero-sum politics" and be "part of the solution."

He claims average Americans are wondering if Washington can "do their job" and "pass legislation" during this crisis.

Gregory worries other countries expect the U.S. "to play a role on the world stage," which is hampered without House leadership.
