Where are the 238 voted to make Trump Speaker going to come from? Democrats are going to have about 215 of them. It would only take 25 Republicans, give or take, to vote Trump down.

Why 238 ? 218 for house majority, which the majority usually agrees upon and confirms. Would a Romney confirm ? He’s up in ‘24..

You may be thinking of 538....the number of electoral votes, meaning 269 EVs ties making 270 the magic number.

But, I’m wondering why 538 . 435 reps + 100 senators = 535.

I’ve forgotten, does Puerto Rico, Guam, + one more territory get EVs.
