For 2 days I've refrained from posting this harebrain idea. Trump. Extremists. It'll probably come to pass.

I read that some nitwits wanted to convince him to run for the speaker position. The last thing on earth he needs is a platform to blab his beliefs more than he does now. Besides, wouldn't be acceptable in congress to call other members nitwits and idiots and disloyal when they don't agree with you. At least not on the floor. I think a certain decorum is to be expected and I couldn't imagine him....

As for presidency, we are in deep doo doo no matter how you slice it.

Congress sucks and the president is a bumbling stumbling half corpse at this point.

Oh I'm sure lack of decorum has been shown many many many times before. Most don't make a habit of it though. And didn't someone also yell out "liar" at the SOTU at Obama I think?

Yes and he was held accountable unlike Pelosi for her ripping up the speech stunt.

Of course, that's how it always works. Should have been her at home instead against that supposed intruder with the hammer.

That was the move that made me decide to vote for him in 2020. Shouldn't have. 2 wrongs and all that.

I'm thinking those who want him as Speaker think he'll be 3rd in line. Just in case.
