Few journalists have interviewed Donald Trump as often as nationally syndicated radio host Wayne Allyn Root. They are more than just acquaintances with a journalist-celebrity relationship. They are friends, which is why it’s no surprise Trump wanted to talk to Root privately about the possibility of the President running for Speaker of the House.
It’s a theory that has been proposed by many, originally by Root, that has major appeal to many of Trump’s fans. He would be second in line for the presidency and would be able to control impeachment proceedings against Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. If the cards were played properly, he could be back in the Oval Office in or before 2024.
I spoke to Root after his interview and he teased it with me on the latest episode of The JD Rucker Show. The interview he did with Trump should be running soon, so be sure to check out rootforamerica.com to catch it when it’s live.
Some may argue that Trump endorsed Kevin McCarthy for Speaker of the House, but Trump told Root that is NOT the case. He endorsed McCarthy for his Congressional seat, nothing more. That’s an important distinction and may hint at the possibility Trump may really be considering this play. After all, nobody has the power to derail a failing presidential agenda as much as the Speaker of the House.
If Nancy Pelosi was able to be a thorn in Trump’s side when he was in the Oval Office and having an incredible first term, why couldn’t Trump do even more to Biden who is having the worst presidential term in modern history?
” LBJ didn’t run because he didn’t think he could win.”
He also didn’t run because no one thought he would live through his second term. He died (1?) day after his second term would have ended.
I was young at the time and remember my parents speculating that he knew he had cancer when he dropped out of the race.
Good grief, Root is so cray cray.
Dumb idea. Anything that takes time and effort away from 2024 is a dumb idea.
Solving how? Impeachment? Show me the 67 votes to remove in the Senate.
However, show me 34 'Ratz that are loyal to the disaster that is the current duo.
Even the 'Ratz know to protect their brand and Hillary is circling 2024 like a Great White Shark.
Not going to happen! Why would Trump take two years for his last term (two term limit) when he could have a full four year term?
