    'Odds are increasing' for Trump to become U.S. House speaker

    'Conservative voter turnout would be through the roof nationwide'

    Nearly every U.S. president has held political office before their Oval Office tenure.


    Many have been members of the Senate, and more than a dozen were governors. A few have held posts such as secretary of the Navy and CIA director. And one even was on the Supreme Court after his presidency.


    But now there's a suggestion that Trump, who never held office before the presidency, in two years could be the next House speaker.


    "Odds are increasing that Donald Trump could be the next speaker of the House," wrote Peter Heck at DISRN.com.


    He said Trump could have a "major role in the upcoming 2022 congressional elections, with a potential payoff that would greatly impact the future of President Biden's term in office."


    He pointed out that a GOP majority in the House following 2022 could elect Trump.


    "House rules allow for the majority to select someone from the outside to serve in the position," Heck said.


    Paul Bedard reported Monday in his "Washington Secrets" column the "buzz" was "Trump for speaker."

    Can you imagine Trump and AOC in the same House? And Pelosi under Trump? There would be some fireworks for sure.
    If I were Trump though, I'd just enjoy my retirement, or maybe try to build corporate alternatives to woke brands.

    Trump ran for president because he wanted it on his resumé. He ran for reelection because he didnt want to be a loser or a quitter. To be Speaker, you need to be interested in policy. Trump has never had that. Besides, he wont have all the perks. he’ll hate it and quit after 3 days tops.

    Then all that needs to happen is for Biden to die and for Kamala to have an “accident”
