If a deal was struck and it only returned a semblance of normalcy without accomplishing anything, it would defer recognition of the true state of the Republican Party and likely trigger many in the above camps to just continue the current trend toward apathy that is allowing the MAGA fringe influence to grow by leveraging the power of an established party.

IOW, don't save him and let the Reps prove -yet again- that they are not able to govern under present conditions.

I'm kinda leaning that way. I respect that Johnson saw something that needed doing, and worked with Dems to make sure it happened. But I still don't like his overt insertion of religion into almost everything, and I also don't like that he caved to Trump on the Senate compromise bill before he even had a chance to read it. For Dems, this is arguably better (i.e. Ukraine funding without giving up anything). But that the guy third in line for the White House (i.e. succession) should cave to someone who has no position or authority in government is very disturbing.
