“Trump may visit Capitol, address Republicans as they pick new speaker”
“Former President Donald Trump is in talks to visit Capitol Hill next week as Republicans debate who should be the next speaker of the House following Kevin McCarthy’s stunning ouster, according to three people familiar with the discussions.”
“The pending trip would be Trump’s first to the Capitol since leaving office and since his supporters attacked the building in a bid to halt the transition of power on Jan. 6, 2021.”
“Those now pushing Trump for speaker is Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a longtime Trump ally who didn’t vote to remove McCarthy. She posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, that she believed “he would take the job. Nehls, the Texas Republican who was among the first to promote Trump for the job, said he’d been contacted “by multiple Members of Congress willing to support and offer nomination speeches for Donald J. Trump to be Speaker of the House.”

Trump isn’t going there to get his name in the running, he already has Jordan, who would kiss his ass on Broadway if Trump asked, but to capitalize on the attention. He knows how galvanizing the debacle is on TV, and wants to put himself in the middle of it, just the type of reality show he knows how to manipulate, Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice
Certainly ain’t going to view the grounds his MAGA militia tried to destroy
