"Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz has vowed to nominate former President Donald Trump to be the next Speaker of the House. "After the next election cycle when we take back the House of Representatives, when we send [current Speaker] Nancy Pelosi back to the filth of San Francisco, my commitment to you is that my vote for Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives will go to Donald J. Trump," the Republican congressman said to a crowd gathered for Trump's rally in Sarasota, Florida, on Saturday." www.newsweek.com/matt-gaetz-says-hell-nominate-donald-trump-next-speaker-house-1606704Just what we need. More chaos and destruction. This time in the Legislative. Not that i can see former guy going for it But who the hell knows w/this bunch.

It must be uncomfortable for DT to sit down with Matt Gaetz that far up his ass.

I'm not politically educated, but wouldn't DT have to already be an active politician to become the Speaker of the House?
And, oh man, that would suck.
But this is just more political bs, isn't it? Just to rile up the base?

Just to rile up the base? I thought you had to be a member of the House to be elected speaker, however, that’s not true. The constitution does not stipulate that. It wouldn’t matter if it did anyway, if he’s got the votes I’m sure they can find one of his cheerleaders to resign from a state where the Governor would appoint him. It’s just their next coup attempt to f with we the people’s choice in 2020. Our democracy is on thin ice and fighting for its life. Some shining beacon to the rest of the world we turned out to be.

why would DT want to be Speaker when he's supposed to take back the Presidential office this August?

Just another ploy to keep people who wouldn’t normally vote involved in the process.

Trump is probably interested because he saw the title 'Speaker'. When he finds out the job means letting others speak, he won't want to do it.

Really? What is the new date? I have no clue! (Rolling eyes) She said because he won in 2020. So why would he need to be REinstated if he was already the winner.

Nah, it's too much of a real job. He won't be able to sequester himself and watch Faux News all day if he had to actually...you know...work.

What makes you think he cares what is normal and customary? He'd take the job and piss away the responsibilities - if he can do it for POTUS he can do it for Speakership.

August 13 is the big day. No, no. Marjorie Taylor Greene says that's not true, and we know she tells the truth!! **** Uh oh, MTG is telling the truth?!? Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA) on Wednesday disputed claims made by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell and others that former President Donald Trump will be reinstated as president in August of this year.
