(CNN)Rep. Jim Jordan, a leader in the conservative House Freedom Caucus and former chairman of the group, told CNN he will announce his run for speaker of the House of Representatives in a letter to colleagues Thursday. Jordan has long said he was interested in the post, but the news comes after Jordan has faced questions about his time as an assistant coach at Ohio State University and whether he knew about alleged sexual abuse by a former Ohio State medical doctor who treated athletes there.

I take the ridiculous OSU allegations as a good indicator of Jordan's credibility, because 1) the Left loves to throw scandal on anybody they fear, and 2) if the best smear they can come up with is that 20 years ago, he should have heard and acted on a rumor, then the Left has nothin’ to throw at him. Besides Jordan's hard work on the Mueller Witch Hunt scandal, Jordan is a co-founder of the Freedom Caucus, the core of the “good guys.” Lots of fakers out there, but Jordan looks solid.

Jordan failed to drown the queer team doctor (who was doing typical queer stuff) in a bog. Admittedly, that’s disappointing, but he still is the best realistic option for Speaker.
“... but the news comes after Jordan has faced questions about his time as an assistant coach at Ohio State University and whether he knew about alleged sexual abuse by a former Ohio State medical doctor who treated athletes there.”

That is the way I look at it. He must be the real deal otherwise they never would have started that OSU scandal.

I would argue that his most important attribute is the ability and charisma to lead and be followed. His task will be to run the House
