Former President Donald Trump is reportedly not expected to support House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) in the speakership race against House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH).
Trump, whose 2024 campaign Scalise did not endorse, is unlikely to help Scalise whip the votes to become speaker because “loyalty is a two-way street,” three sources close to the president told the Messenger on Wednesday.
One person “familiar with the former president’s thinking” explained it this way:
“Trump personally likes Steve. There’s no real animosity,” said one of the sources. “But the fact is, loyalty is a two-way street and Steve had a chance to support the president but he didn’t.”
“So if Trump has to work for it in Steve’s eyes, Steve is going to have to work for it in Trump’s eyes,” the source added.

Both of you act like Democrats. Are you Democrats?
I say again, this is none of Former President Trump’s business. STFU. He needs to mind his own business.
Trump grew tired of winning in 2018.
Trump qualifies to be involved more than you do. Try to control your emotional outbursts.
Out of 535 in the US Congress, one would be hard pressed to find 25 who give a damn about the American people and the USA; one would be hard pressed to find more than 25 in Congress worth keeping there. How many in Congress worked to seal the US border? How many in Congress stopped the Covid bioweapon jab mandate especially for the US military? How many in the US Congress qualify as traitors? How many in Congress are taking $$ under the table from Big Pharma and other lobbyists?
At least 500 have not honored their Oaths of Office to protect and defend this nation from our enemies both foreign and domestic.
How many self-serving, power-crazed enemies sit in the US Congress and in political offices Coast to Coast down to dog catcher?
Baloney.
Scalise will not be speaker.
I don’t think that Republicans have the moral courage to put their names on document supporting President Trump.
Enough. This has to stop. No more sick people in our government. This should not be a place where people go to die. Government should be run by healthy alert people and not by those compromised by drugs ... uhm... pharmaceuticals. They can easily be swayed on how to vote.
I would be very interested to see a comparison between Democrat and Republican donations from any source other than individual citizens. I’d bet that the same lobbyist money flows into the accounts of both Repubs and Dems.
And after Newt's recent tirade about Matt Goetz, I have removed Gingrich from my Conservative Hall of Fame.
Funniest thing I've ever heard from Trump
Me: Trump qualifies to be involved more than you do.
You: “Baloney.”
Great, explain how you have equal influence to a past President who currently leads in his party’s primary polling.
Trump is Executive Branch. Not his circus, not his monkeys.
And I'm really tired of idiotic celebrities and damned politicians presuming to tell We the People who we should choose as our representatives.
Republican congressmen have already shown how much attention they pay to Trump’s recommendations by roundly rejecting his guy.
d:^D
That’s because the Congress is now made up of illegal aliens who came here claiming to be “refugees” seeking asylum. BULLSCHIDT. They are foreign thieves who are coming here to feed off the carcass of America. That’s the ONLY reason these millions of azhos are coming here. America is roadkill and they’re the buzzards.
They did it in secret (notably)
“I just read that Scalise is going to resign”
Resign from Congress, or from candidacy for Speaker?
Trump is a citizen with 1 billion dollars worth of assets on the line. If it’s none of his business it’s definitely none of yours...
