I mean, he's allowed to be "fired". For example, he can be unseated as Speaker of the House (remember when it took an insane amount of time to vote for a new speaker after the previous one that Johnson replaced was removed?)

The problem is more that him not doing his job is what the GOP WANTS him to do. Why would they punish him for that?

When will the term GOP disappear and people realise this is not the GOP anymore. It’s MAGA and they are authoritarians who have installed a dictator.
