  He can't.  He and his colleagues drove off Boehner for working collaboratively with Obama.  Boehner and Obama built a relationship that had to be shut down because the party felt it was some sort of betrayal.  McCarthy and his colleagues are a part of the reason of the hyperpartisanship now and it's come to haunt him as he simply can't walk across the room to Jeffries and ask to talk in private to toss some thoughts out. 
  It's become a GOP culture norm to not compromise and double down.  No matter who or how much it harms the greater good of many or the country - they won't compromise or negotiate. >
