Conversation with a friend:
Friend:
What is Trump’s play with endorsing Jordan? Seems like this makes the house a stalemate as no one can reach the minimum votes needed. All the rest of the RINO’s will go for Scalise, unless he bows out
Me:
Maybe he wants to prolong the period with no Speaker and then step in and offer to be Speaker so it doesn’t look like he was eager?
If something does take out Biden and the camel he doesn’t want it to look like his plane to take the Presidency?
I’m grasping at straws trying to understand
Trump could never move to the Presidency from Speaker, because that would take simultaneous removal of Bitem and Harris which the Senate would NEVER allow.
If he were to make a play for Speaker, it would have to be short-term...maybe only for the 45 day period to finalize all appropriations.
While it is possible this could end in a major triumph, it is also risky.
Why jeopardize the 2024 election where Trump is currently enjoying much stronger polling than he has ever had before...despite the bias of the polls.
If we can just limit the cheating, maybe in a few of the swing states, he will become Trump 47.
SIDE NOTE: I guess the RATs were unable to entice Kamala to go back to the Senate by appointment to Feinstein’s seat. She is a dim bulb, but realizes the Democrats may still have to take Bitem out before the end of his term.
