Can you picture Donald Trump as House speaker? – Chris
@Tauney tell me honestly that the world isn’t a better place without George floyd. Cmon man! 🤣
Nope not in million years, never!
@just the facts
You should finish the reading.
You are in the middle of a very dark tunnel right now.
Look! Have you ever heard “there is always light at the end of the tunnel”???
So keep reading 😄😄😄
@Joseph G he got rid of a lot of jobs and pays you lazy libs to sit at home on your asses. That’s about all Joe has done
This is ridiculous 🤣
So was Donald Dump as President…
@Gilby Rodriguez u have nicki Minaj as ur profile pic, ur entire life is meaningless and hilarious
The idiot in the White House Cheated! The world knows this! But we caught him 🤣we are now proving it…then we’re going to do something about it!
@N 827 “we” are not doing anything. It’s just you and the other nutcases, bot N 827
I don’t know why you would even come on and say something like this, it’s not going to happen, republicans are spreading the rumor to try to make people nervous, it’s never going to happen, trumptard was president, he sure isnt the kind of guy that will take a lesser position. He will not and your just adding fuel to the republican fire
Soooo true.GET OUT OF FLORIDA,tRUMP,GO HOME..N.Y.
@Nora Fox Over 60% of Florida residents were not born in Florida. Why not tell them all to ‘go home’
lol Why do you think CNN keeps talking about Trump? Only you die hard communists are left watching this embarrassing propaganda network. 🤣
CNN is dying so when they get desperate they talk about Trump
@Nora Fox
I thought you libtards liked illegal immigration? 🤣
So the Constitution is the oranges of this possibility⁉️
…orrenjiz …orjernez …ornijez …onridgez …
🤣‼️
As speaker of the House will he get 5 hours of executive time every morning?

https://youtu.be/lo6ZCiUZ3Ew
1:36 Now THAT sounds like a witch hunt.
all his lies are witch hunts
https://youtu.be/lo6ZCiUZ3Ew
If he did become Speaker, he’d get more media coverage than the president
@TJ Wallis But I wasn’t defending trump
@Belly Dancer Emyou were defending Biden, the most corrupt politician in American history. Check out his political record and racist son 🤦♀️
@Belly Dancer Em Trumps corrupt too. He would still get more media coverage than Biden if he was Speaker 🤷♀️
@TJ Wallis You’re part right. I was defending Biden, but he is not one of the most corrupt politicians ever. He is merely average on the scale of politicians. Trump on the other hand, is clealry one of the most corrupt politicians ever. As for Biden’s son, he seems like a bit of a dumbass
@Belly Dancer Em it’s not a pissing contest, Belly. We all lost here
I’ll say this again. Taking the job of Speake of the House would be a step down from the White House. #45 would not take a “lesser” job in Congress.
He would be the most popular speaker ever!
https://youtu.be/lo6ZCiUZ3Ew
@David Eby lmfao
@David Eby just like he was the most popular president ever? Oh wait…
@X Ray Pres. Trump surely was one of our greatest presidents ever. You poor Democrats are still bitter about his success. All you guys came up with was a stumblin bumblin weak senile vegetable. Good job.
I hope not only because that would drag ‘the end’ out into 2023…but that is a very plausible scenario.
News media: Trump wants to be Speaker of the House.
Kevin McCarthy: Am I a joke to you?
McCarthy is a joke to trunp and trunp is a joke to us!
If you know McCarthy, he wouldn’t mind.
https://youtu.be/lo6ZCiUZ3Ew
Yes, Kevin you are. But so is Donald Trump
@DPS670950 trump is the biggest joke of the bunch
This is the only projection that could make McCarthy grow some nads. Nah….
https://youtu.be/eN2o_V4SrZI
At least you prefaced this concept with, “you want to hear a crazy idea?”
Anything to talk about Trump 😂
Nope. He doesn’t do anything unless he goes where he wants, when he wants, and with whoever he wants. With this he’d have to follow a schedule, go to meetings and go places he doesn’t like going. This would last ten minutes.
https://youtu.be/lo6ZCiUZ3Ew
It’s entertaining to watch you libs fall for the propaganda so easily…..
It could be doubted though, unlike president, he doesn’t necessarily get full immunity.
Also, he wouldn’t even want to meet with Biden because of jealousy that Biden won the presidency.
Hi !… I’m Joe Biden….👈😁…
..and I’m ready for my FIRST 👈😁
news conference, after my 👈😁
“sound defeat” of “Georgebhgggjjjzz”..😳

Trump is like watching ta bad live version of the movie “Blaze”.
Ironically he could become the Speaker without knowing how to speak
He can speak better then sleepy joe
https://youtu.be/lo6ZCiUZ3Ew
He’s like that toxic maniac ex that never goes away even after several restraining orders
Now Karen,settle down. Pres.Trump would be a great speaker of the house. Finally things would get done.
CNN is an embarrassment. I actually feel sorry for those few that still watch this propaganda outlet. 😂
Hi !… I’m Joe Biden…👈😁….
Did you know dog hair 👈
doesn’t smell
NEARLY as good,
as little girls’ hair ?….. 👈😁….
@David Eby He turned into a politician and never got things done when he was in power. He’s a fraud too, wake up.
There’s more chance of Bigfoot crashing a UFO into the Loch Ness monster.
🤣
All of the battleground states will recertify for Trump when the audits are over.
WE JUST LUV CHRIS ⭐️💝 DON THE CON WILL NEVER HOLD ANOTHER POSITION 🤣😂💞💫🌷
