Please stop. LOL.

Nobody who has ever been President would ever accept a demotion in life to a lowly House seat.

Untrue

We have had former presidents go back in as representatives, not modern president, but it has happened.

If you leave out John Quincy Adams (House), Andrew Johnson (Senate), and John Tyler (Confederate House of Representatives).

John Quincy Adams would beg to differ.

And no private citizen with no prior political office or military leadership role has been elected President. Before Trump.

John Quincy Adams, who won the house of representatives was instrumental in stopping the slave trade and strengthening the abolitionist movement. He did more in the house than he was able to get done as president.

Ever hear of President John Quincy Adams?

He was also a house member from 1825-29, after he was President.

Trump is elected to the House. Becomes Speaker of the House. Impeaches Biden and Harris. Senate removes them for high crimes. Trump becomes President. (A guy can dream, can’t he?)
