The Speaker is in may ways more powerful than the president. He keeps laws he wants moving forward and laws he doesn't want stalled in committee. He enforces party discipline by yanking people off committees and chairmanships if he wants. Speaker Tip O'Neil was legend. Presidents had to kiss his azz.

Really all a president has is the veto, the bully pulpit, and the Justice Department which he could not use politically until the Peedough Joe came along and turned the country into a banana republic, where you sent the secret police against anyone who ever said a word against you. Or who said you were an election cheater. Just like Somoza, Pinochet, Saddam, or the Shah of Iran. America used to be special. Not any more. These dictators always had their shills out, just like here, cheering that the subversivos' sentences were not long enough.

Constitutionally there is nothing in the way of Trump being Speaker. The Constitution says it can be anyone they want.

It is the duty of the other candidates, like Steve Scalise, to withdraw and pave the way for Trump. This is a masterstroke which puts the worst of the last 3 nightmare years behind us.

Congressman Troy Nehls Shakes Up Speaker Race – Nominates Donald Trump for Speaker of the House

Congressman Troy Nehls Shakes Up Speaker Race - Nominates Donald Trump for Speaker of the House | The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hᴏft

Congressman Troy Nehls (R-TX) has thrown a curveball into the already tumultuous race for Speaker of the House. Taking to Twitter, Nehls announced that he will nominate former President Donald J. Trump for Speaker of the House.

This bombshell comes on the heels of a historic 216-210 vote to remove Kevin McCarthy from the Speaker’s chair, marking the first time in U.S. history that a Speaker has been ousted mid-term.

On Tuesday, the House of Representatives voted 216-210 to remove McCarthy, making him the shortest-serving Speaker since 1876.

The vote was spearheaded by Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz and saw a few conservatives joining Democrats in the unprecedented action. Among the Republicans voting for the removal were Reps. Andy Biggs of Arizona, Ken Buck of Colorado, Tim Burchett of Tennessee, Eli Crane of Arizona, Bob Good of Virginia, Nancy Mace of South Carolina, and Matt Rosendale of Montana.

Trump says he would serve.

Republicans have lost their alleged minds.
 
The GOP rule, not a House rule, so it could be bypassed but he doesn’t have enough Republican votes to become the Speaker but I have been wrong a lot lately in regards to the GOP.
Sure it could be bypassed, like the rule about holding a vote before launching an impeachment inquiry, that THEY insistedp on. Per usual with the MAGA crowd, rules are only for the other guy!
 
It'll be Jordan. I have no idea why democrats thought it was a good idea to vote out McCarthy, but you can bet that they are going to have a VERY hard time getting money from here on out. :dunno:
There's a push to go for single-item bills and bill voting to speed things up and make it easier.

From both sides. It's something that could happen. It's a death knell for pork-laden huge bills, though.
