Former President Trump told Fox News Digital that he would accept a short-term role as speaker of the House of Representatives to serve as a "unifier" for the Republican Party until lawmakers reach a decision on who should take on the post.
Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., was removed as speaker of the House Tuesday after Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., introduced a measure against him known as a motion to vacate, accusing him of breaking promises he made to win the speaker's gavel in January.
"I have been asked to speak as a unifier because I have so many friends in Congress," Trump told Fox News Digital. "If they don’t get the vote, they have asked me if I would consider taking the speakership until they get somebody longer-term, because I am running for president."

NO, FOCCUS ON GETTING TH÷BALLOTT HARESTING ORG UP!
This is a really appealing option that would drive the left over the edge.
THAT ought to send James into a total spin.
Your correct. Because there are to many deepstate types embedded in Congress. However, if DeSantis were available, I’m sure the country club Republicans would support him. And from what I hear, he should be available right after the Iowa primary.
President Trump has had 8 years to build a caucus of support in Congress. How many more years should we plan on waiting for that to materialize?
Dear God,
Please make Trump Speaker of the House.
Your loyal servant,
AzJoe
This is how we do it!
You don’t have to be a member of Congress to be Speaker?
No you do not. It has been done before. Go Trump!
He can separate sheep an goats. Wheat and chaff. Find out who he can work deals with an who he can’t while at same time telling them what he can do once hes elected and those that buck him?

Trump
The great flusher outer of turds !
I like it.
At the very least, Trump has become the center of conversation, sucking the oxygen out of the room for his (midget) opponents to get their message out... again.
That cuts to the chase.
You noticed that...
always!
Too many Rino’s that hate Trump. It will never happen.
Of course not. How would it possibly do that?
Gingrich and Pelosi were experts.
Everyone else flows downhill from there.
Boehner had an aide-de-camp on the dais, that's all Speaker Trump would need.
"Privilege from arrest" unto what that entails as Speaker, yes; suspending the ongoing lawfare, no.
Trump wouldn’t get 20 votes.
and deepstate has had over 200 years to formulate their hold on power. No one person can overcome those odds in that short of time.
