Is it that dangerous? What are the consequences to him if the vote fails to oust McCarthy? He's on the Armed Services and Judiciary committees. Will he be removed from those? Will he expelled from the House GOP caucus? He's more or less already uncontrollable, so what's the point? And with the GOP's razor thin majority, the GOP can't afford to lose members.
Right now, Gaetz has a high profile. Even if the vote fails, he won't be shutting up or muzzled anytime soon.
