Is there any chance that Democrats would support a Republican running for House Speaker?

Asked by LostInParadise (31927points) October 22nd, 2023

The going assumption is that no Democrats would support a Republican. I am guessing that members of the minority party rarely, if ever, support a Speaker candidate from the majority party. The problem is that there is a small number of MAGA conservatives who seem to be unwilling to make any compromises. Might there be a moderate Republican who would be willing to make a deal to get at least some Democratic votes?
