 Okay, folks, tell me again why the Dems lead by Rep. Hakeem Jeffries were right not to protect the Speakership?

Seems the GOP are under no obligation to adhere to their own rules (#26 re felony indictments, for example).

Social media post by Rep. Marjoie Taylor Greene:

"President Trump can attend the Speaker Candidate Forum on Tuesday and I plan to nominate him in our conference meeting. ... " 
 @a67a96bd trump doesn't have any intention to become speaker of the house, there's simply no way he could get enough votes anyhow.

literally everything he does is to simply keep his name in the news, keep people talking.

don't fall for it :)
