He ran for the Senate in 2022, and was voted in as Speaker when the Republicans took back control of the House.
It's a farfetched scenario but it has been kicked around some.
Or a Florida Senator stepped down long enough for Florida's Governor to appoint Trump. Trump becomes speaker. As soon as Biden/Kamala are impeached, Trump becomes President, and the Florida governor reappoints the senator back to his seat.
You gotta lay off that Tennessee shine. It ain’t good for you. Lost a day to it when I was a youngster.
How does being a sitting senator lead to being Speaker of the House of representatives?
As far as I recall, there is no Rule on who can be speaker. it’s just the Slimes in power pick one of their own.
they can place Trump as Speaker by a vote if they wanted.
If Trump wants to be President in 2024, it's best that he is not a sitting politician, because he will be blamed for every cough, traffic accident and anyone who gets the hiccups.
He needs to speak about the current state of affairs, the future and how he would make it better, along with some election integrity issues. I don't see Trump, as Speaker, dealing with running the House and calling for a quorum at midnight. That's not Trump.
The Senate has nothing to do with the Speaker of the House.
