Yikes! hadn't thought of that.
***selection of the Speaker of the House needs to be looked at ... figure out how to do it better***
I fear with DemocRATS there is no 'better', only worse! :^D
Keep in mind that the speaker of the House does not have to be a congressman. So, Dems could elect a Hillary or even an Obama as Speaker and then that person would be 3rd in line.
I know -a normal person doesn’t think like that. So I have to pretend, if I was demented Hillary how is the next way I can try to get into office now - to heck with waiting for 2020.
Imagination can be frightening.
