Donald Trump as Speaker and Lauren Boebert as his gun-toting chief whip - America’s future as envisaged by young conservatives
IndependentMAY 2022
There's no better choice for House speaker than Trump and many House Republicans are already coming to his support. While Trump’s primary mission is to retake the White House, he could serve as speaker in the meantime, which would allow him to restore order and unity in the House.
While the House was able to oust Kevin McCarthy from his role — largely thanks to Democrats — it won't be able to secure Trump the speakership. Trump is being indicted for multiple crimes, and House rules disqualify people in his situation from becoming speaker. Besides, he doesn't have enough GOP support to win the vote.
