‘Speaker of the House Donald J. Trump’ has a nice ring to it, yes?
This from westernjournl,com.
Take a moment and imagine Trump directing the daily order of business in the House. It would be an absolute spectacle. Democrats Communists would be fuming. C-SPAN ratings would skyrocket.
This isn’t just some fanciful MAGA daydream.
Nasty Fran Nan may soon be forced to pass her gavel over to Trump, especially if Republicans dominate the midterm elections as many pollsters have predicted.
A number of Republicans have already thrown support behind the idea. Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, for instance, has repeatedly pledged to nominate Trump for speaker once Republicans take the House come November.
Of course, establishment RINOs and the media’s talking heads have painted this as a ridiculous impossibility. However, they said the same about Trump becoming president. That didn’t work out according to their plans either.
Trump becoming the House speaker is certainly possible. Although every speaker in the history of the House has been a representative, there is technically no such requirement. The House of Representatives can appoint whoever they want as their leader.
Legislative expert Casey Burgat told WUSA:
“It literally could be anybody.”
Burgat further explained:
[T]here’s actually some precedent here: Several non-members have received votes in the past. For instance, in 2019, Joe Biden received a speaker vote.
Burgat continued:
This has never been tested to the point where someone has won that nomination where then we have to have this debate. But as it stands right now, because it hasn’t been disproven, the House will choose its own Speaker and other officers.
When it comes to Trump’s opinion on all of this, the former president remains as unpredictable as ever.
During a radio interview in June 2021, Trump called the idea “very interesting.” Then, during a March 2022 interview with Just the News, Trump dismissed the possibility, saying:
It’s not something I would be interested in.
Maybe after November, he’ll come back around to the idea.
If elected by the House, there’s no doubt Trump would use the position to settle old scores. That may seem petty, but hey, at least the Republican Party would actually be doing something for once.
The possibilities are endless.
Perhaps Trump would launch an investigation into Hunter Biden’s illicit dealings. Or maybe a review of the slanderous and fruitless Mueller investigation. Of course, he would surely open an inquiry into Hillary Clinton’s email servers.
Speaker Trump could even ramrod the impeachment of Joe-Joe and Kamaltoe.
According to Axios, as of late September, House Republicans have introduced over a dozen impeachment resolutions against the resident.
If Republicans take the House, should they wish to pursue impeachment, it won’t be hard to come up with a reason why. Biden has committed a laundry list of impeachable offenses from his mishandling of the border crisis to the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal.
The following is from a July 2, 2002, article by D. Parker on americanthinker.com.
The Top 10 Reasons Trump Should be Speaker of the House
1. Four words: State of the Union.
Picture this: while Biden and Harris are still in office and delivering their interminable State of the Union addresses, Donald J. Trump can be sitting behind them as the last visual word on their BS. It’s even money they would cancel these political snooze fests for the duration.
2. The entertainment value of driving the nation’s socialist media insane.
Their echo chambers have their own echo chambers.
Watching them lose it every night, whining about the death of democracy (because they aren’t in control), will be well worth the price of admission.
3. It will save billions from not having to bail out the nation’s socialist media.
This goes right along with the previous point. We all know that the [communists’] propaganda organ is going to need a bailout.
The people have taken notice, and their ratings are lower than a putrid stain under a dustbin. So, it won’t be long until they look to their partners in crime for a bailout—from the government. But having Trump to whine about 24/7 could keep them afloat.
4. It throws a wrench into the plans of the anti-liberty left.
It’s a lot more fun to take the initiative than remain passive.
We can only guess what the liberticidal leftists have in store for us. President Trump as the new speaker of the House will throw those carefully laid plans into chaos, and when we’re talking about liberty-destroying leftists, that’s always a good thing.
5. It will energize the pro-freedom electorate.
The pro-freedom right needs every advantage it can muster against the anti-liberty left. The key is selecting those tactics that would have a selective effect of energizing the freedom community while driving the other side to distraction. Can anyone think of a better way to do that than the prospect of President Donald J. Trump as speaker of the House?
6. He can preside over “President” Biden and “Vice President” Kamala’s impeachments.
Wouldn’t this make it all worthwhile? Anti-liberty leftists love to play the impeachment game. Well then let’s bring it on. Reading all the charges alone will take a few weeks.
Biden and Kamala have truly committed high crimes, not just misdemeanors. We could start with deliberately opening the border to an illegal invasion.
7. We can have a real investigation of Jan. 6.
[T]here’s an old axiom in guerrilla warfare that the only defense from an ambush is to immediately attack it. Thus, we should take the bull (in more ways than one) by the horns and investigate this sordid tale. We know that there won’t be any revelations of anything new about the pro-freedom side. So now is the time to look into what the anti-liberty left was doing that day.
Not to mention releasing all the video footage they suspiciously keep holding back.
8. It will be worth it to change history.
Let’s face it: we are in a cage match for liberty. We have nowhere else to go. Ronald Reagan said it best: “If we lose freedom here, there’s no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth.”
We need everyone to do his part, and if that means President Trump has to take a slight demotion for something that will only add to his ever-growing résumé, then that’s a small price to pay for saving humanity and saving the planet.
9. Michelle Obama is running for president in 2024.
Anyone paying attention should realize that Biden’s first term is really Obama’s third—he’s just completing his heart’s desires from behind the scenes. The problem for them is that with “Brandon’s” rapid decline, it’s doubtful he’s going to make it to the end of his term, much less run again.
Michelle Obama is the ultimate stealth candidate, who would admittedly be formidable to President Trump.
There is also the threat of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez running, among others.
The point is that it would be far better to have Trump in power as speaker of the House and have a better contender positioned against them.
10. He can do something now to save the country.
Look at where we are:
- Inflation is at a 40-year high, with the price of gas and diesel almost off the scale.
- The situation with food is so bad that even Biden has had to admit the truth.
- [Obiden] opened the border to an illegal invasion and exacerbated the opioid crisis.
- He’s made a mockery of the rule of law.
- Our enemies have been emboldened around the world and are gearing up for nuclear war.
- We could easily add to the list by waiting five minutes for the next crisis to crop up.
Final thoughts: This may merely be nothing more than wishful thinking, that come January 3rd, 2023, Donald Trump will be speaker of the House. The overwhelming likelihood is that the scenario will not come to pass. But it is not impossible. And we can all think of one or more also in the running for the position who we can envision not performing nearly as well.
However, I, for one, can think of no one more exciting, more promising, and likely more effective and advantageous in the position of Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives than Donald J. Trump.
