What If There's No Speaker Of The House On J6 2025?

[Edgetho]

Can there even be a vote to certify the election? I don't know. Probably not. I don't like Johnson a whole lot but he's a political animal, which is what the Speaker position is all about.

Think about it.........

Acting President Grassley?

Hopefully, we all learned about that in school (unless you were one of the unfortunate young people subjected to Common Core). Fortunately, the U.S. line of succession has never gone past the level of vice president. If all goes according to schedule, the House will elect a speaker on Jan. 3, the election will be certified on Jan. 6, and Donald Trump and JD Vance will be sworn in on Jan. 20, 2025.

But what if things don't go according to plan, and the House is caught up in a protracted battle to elect a new speaker? We could be staring down the possibility (albeit a remote one) of Senate President Pro Tempore Chuck Grassley becoming the acting president of the United States.

If you're wondering why President-elect Trump came out with a ringing endorsement of Mike Johnson today, this could very well be the reason.

I for one would welcome our new overlord.

All hail President Grassley!

 

[ColonelAngus]

Well, damn, CARTER just died, otherwise…

All hail President Grassley!

He's Ninety-One (91) years old!!

 

[shockedcanadian]

Would McConnell become president or would Biden just remain with Harris in place until Trumps election is certified?

Make Trump Speaker.

He could last another four years and do as much damage to the left as Trump could.

[The Duke]

Make Trump Speaker.

Make Matt Gaetz Speaker of The House!
What about Massie?

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

What about Massie?

You need to get 218 votes.

 

[The Duke]

You need to get 218 votes.

Massie could do it. Gaetz wants to clean the House and they know it, so probably not him.
See, I know where Gaetz is coming from, and he's on a mission. Oh, you just wait..

 

[Meister]

I would step up to the plate and take one for the team, but, I'm just too damn honest.

Didn't Johnson just strengthen the requirements needed to replace the Speaker?

It ain't Xiden or a demofk. That is always a great thing.

What about we get a POTUS first then worry about petty politics later?

 

[toobfreak]

Make Matt Gaetz Speaker of The House!

Gaetz already has a new gig doing political commentary now on One America News.

 

[MarcATL]

Why don't you like Johnson OP?

 

[ColonelAngus]

I want whomever will own the Libs the most.

Gaetz?

 

[The Duke]

I want whomever will own the Libs the most.

Gaetz?

And he'd own RINOS too! Indeed!
I'll settle for Massie, Donalds, or..anyone decent, really.
Is Mike Johnson out?
