That does seem to be the likely play here. Dangling Trump out there as an option gives the MAGA coalition the freedom to hold out as long as it takes to get someone they can live with. The RINO wing would be foolish to not accept Jordan.

I know he kicked Lying Ted’s Teeth in.
And Ronnie…., well he is circling the Toilet Bow, awaiting to go down the sewer pipe.

Keep thinking Trump is coming out on top of everyone. He’s going down, hard, before this is over. Which is unfortunate, because we will all be paying the price for him years after he’s gone. Just like the J6’ers, who he left to rot.

HA! Nobody in Congress believes that Trump has any chance of becoming Speaker, I will bet you now HIS NAME WILL NEVER EVEN COME UP FOR AN OFFICIAL VOTE. Because he would be destroyed, in humiliating fashion. This is all just a laughable fantasy by his disciples, who think he should not only be Speaker of the House but on the Supreme Court next.

The J6'ers abandoned by Trump, and still rotting in jail, is funny to you?

You should instead consider anyone still supporting Trump as a J6'er in a newer, wider regard. Being led to the trough, i.e. slaughter. Again.

Lively imagination. You have no clue what PDJT is doing behind the scenes.

Again, you’re funny. And desperate. Not getting many converts over to the dark side here on FR, are you?

Pure fantasy, because it's clear on the surface, he will sacrifice ANYONE to save himself. Not that it's working, he's just digging a deeper hole, as those he's burned are rightfully starting to turn against him. A narcissist always has a limited lifespan. And Trump has reached the end of his.

Almost 2/3rd of Pub voters like the guy as the pub nominee. Pub congresscritters ignore that at their peril.

Ask Liz Cheney how that worked out.

Kamel can’t be president because of the birth thingy so she’s out automatically.

That's what I said. She's ineligible.

Just as a temporary position. Long enough for Joe Biden and Kamala to be impeached and the temporary Speaker to be sworn in as President. Making Trump President again without taking away his ability to serve a second term. Democrat heads would be exploding like overripe pumpkins.

Re: 71 - I believe there’s three No votes right off the bat:

It’s a Constitutional office. Only a Constitutional Amendment can add such qualifications. He’s eligible.

It’s going to be an uphill battle to keep the house next year. We just lost a seat in Alabama today. And we’ve been getting kicked by lawsuits on our maps.
