After the ousting of Speaker Kevin McCarthy, Republicans are considering possible contenders for the top job. Among them are Rep. Steve Scalise, who has a more conservative profile than McCarthy; Rep. Tom Emmer, who has relationships with Republicans he helped elect; Rep. Elise Stefanik, a full-throated Donald Trump loyalist; Rep. Jim Jordan, a prominent Trump ally; Rep. Darrell Issa, who noted Jordan’s support for McCarthy; Rep. Tom Cole, a figure of stability; and McCarthy himself.
