Hello Alan,

 >> Well, Donald J Trump says he'll be the Speaker if nominated...

 AI> I don't think that's what he said.

MaGA nutjobs claim he said it. That is all that counts.

 >> I wonder what the Democrats will feel like if Donald J. Trump becomes
 >> speaker... Will they have regrets voting to get rid of Kevin Pelosi...

 AI> The former president is blocked from the speakership by his indictment(s).
 AI> Not my rules but republican rules.

Now that the speakership is vacant, there are no rules (republican
or otherwise). The House cannot conduct any business until a new
speaker has been elected (by the entire body, regardless of party
or no party). Those are the rules (such as they are).

 >> Sometimes it's better to have the Devil you know than the Devil you don't.

 AI> Is that so?

In this case, somebody left out the details. On purpose.

For Life,
Lee
