Not entirely convinced but I don’t think President Trump will run again in 2024. He would however make a magnificent Speaker of the House of Representatives, and unless I am mistaken, he would not need to run for office to be so designated. A pipe-dream of course, and obviously the Republicans will have to retake the house in 2022. It would be even more fun if Biden-Harris were still the Executive until 2024, when someone like DeSantis became President.
I can dream can’t I?
The ONLY reason DJT would consider being speaker - a huge demotion - would be in the unlikely case that it would be a faster track to POTUS than waiting for 2024. And that is assuming he even wants the Presidency at this point - which I think he doesn’t.
Under this unlikely scenario, he would lead the GOP to retake the house and senate in 2022, assume the speakership, immediately impeach Biden AND Harris, assume the Presidency, and thumb his nose at all of his detractors in the most impressive power play in political history.
That would be awesome, but it is a long shot to say the least - because I think President Trump has had his fill of DC.
“He would however make a magnificent Speaker of the House of Representatives, and unless I am mistaken, he would not need to run for office to be so designated.”
How would that work — become Speaker without being elected to the House?
