Bannon spoke the quiet part out loud today
WHY NOT TRUMP?
He said let's get Trump in as Speaker. Think maybe that was the plan all along? It's what Killary and Co. feared the most. Maybe Trump supported McCarthy knowing he didn't have the votes to be speaker and took advantage of the optics. Would Trump have the votes? If not, he'd sure see who was truly against him in 2024. Imagine if Trump was Speaker and quarterbacked his core MAGA to investigate Biden and Kamala. Enough would be uncovered rather quickly that they would have to step aside and Trump steps into the WH as third in line to Presidency.
All this might sound far fetched but after the last 2 years, nothing would surprise me.
As of 20 minutes ago, Matt Gaetz nominated Donald Trump for Speaker!!
If Trump is actually nominated this would pull back the curtain on DC's Oz Bigly. Here's why.
It has become clear McCarthy doesn't have the votes. Everyone voting for McCarthy will eventually have to choose someone else. If it's Trump, Every Single Congressman and Congresswoman will have to vote and their political lives will depend on it.
If they vote against Trump, they will get the J6 treatment. Trump was nearly 100% in wiping them out.
Trump's endorsement record in 2022 was maybe 87% can't remember exactly. If that percentage holds true, there could be a massive Wipeout of the uniparty, RINO, members of the RNC. They could be absolutely annihilated. A political nuke bomb.

They'll be ripped from their homes and families without legal representation, beaten, humiliated, and thrown into a filthy dungeon to rot for years in solitary confinement between torture sessions?
Great, bring it on.
Well, I meant they would resign or be primaried, but you make some good points!
He's always ten steps ahead. He really is a stable genius.
Got dam.
If that were the plan why didn't the group of 20 vote trump the first time? Why wait until the 7th vote?
To demonstrate what a weakling McCarthy is and embarrass him over and over. Maybe it will go to 17 votes, and then they'll switch gears?
I doubt it. I think it's inevitable McCarthy gets the votes eventually. Maybe not today but eventually.
What makes you think that?
The threat of Trump being nominated might make democrats vote for McCarthy.
After all, McCarthy won't investigate Hunter or the people involved in the coups against President Trump or push through any MAGA bills.

Yea, that's not what happened
The math just doesn't add up for anyone but McCarthy
It doesn't add up for McCarthy to win either. If he is this ineffective to start with, he's not going to be effective as speaker. He needs to withdraw his name from consideration and put his own nomination to rest. That is, if he want to do what's right for the country, which is doubtful.
BTW: That's not my down vote. I appreciate your opinion and respect it.
you can down vote me all you want but tell me how I'm wrong? The 20 who are holding out will eventually peel off based on pressure they get from the rest of the republican party and the right wing media. Look at how Boebert was crucified by Hannity last night for what they are doing. Eventually they will be forced to either vote McCarthy or vote present.
Maybe so it doesn't look like a Trump coup. Same reason he says shit like Biden will be president until 2024. Maybe it's true and that is the plan, but if not the reason would likely be to separate himself from what happens.
Same thing here. Make it look like it's not just a Trump plan to take the speaker position. Make it look like the Reps looked around for a viable candidate before eventually centering on Trump.
If the goal is to avoid a civil war, having Trump appear to overthrow the "rightful" government is not going to achieve that. If he looks like he stumbled back to the presidency through sheer dumb luck, a civil war may be avoidable.
I mean, what would a civil war in 2023 even look like? Personally, I think it's avoided either way. Nobody wants a civil war except the far lefties and members of the uniparty who hid behind concertina wire at the capitol building.
Because he had to make sure enough people DIDN'T vote for McCarthy for speaker, to ensure he didn't get the job. Then he watched to see who the RINOS were. NO WAY IMO that he and Gaetz and yes, MTG, aren't in this together.
Ok, that might be true by why on the following vote (the one that just concluded) nobody voted Trump this time?
A guy from Florida or Georgia Put this out over a year ago..... I also think that DJT responded to M.Gaetz and said "That is not my Preference" or "That is not the Plan" or something to that effect....
You are correct. Trump shot it down before. However, as the battlefield changes who knows what he would say today? If the unverifiable sources that confirmed Trump would do it are accurate, perhaps he would.
I'm looking forward to seeing Trump comment on it directly on TS. I'm pretty sure he will. He's gonna love the limelight it provides.
Don just reTRUTHED this just now... a meme of him in the speaker chair behind Biden. Lol

Edited: it's not a retruth, it's a fresh one :)
MMM first impression.. How could you resist a right handed backhand at full arms length???
Secondi... I could see DJr. as Bannon's handler....
Yeah I couldn't resist that lol. I think Steve goes directly to DJT, they've been friends a long time, right?
You think Trump would telegraph a move like this that far in advance?
I am more apt to think, particularly given the role that Bannon has been playing, (DJT: He was fired, x, x, x, .....) That this is a "pinch the left's elbow nerve and send the out of their minds while something else happens" move.
Think about this scenario:
Trump becomes SOH. So he sits behind biden as resident gives SOU speech. PDJT moves papers around. Acts like he might tear it up.
Then carefully lays the papers out and looks into cameras and smiles. Pure gold.
I know. Wouldn't happen. I can dream.
You are right
None of this scenario will happen
The look on MTGs face was priceless when he did!
I thought she had a wry smile and while I can't lip-read at all well, I think she said "Bold move".
I’m sick of Marjorie Taylor Greene ‘s perfidy. She was blacklisted by Pelosi in the last session. now it looks as though she wants to make it two for two!
Not a bit of enthusiasm on the floor when they read the count. I wasn't watching for the reaction when the nomination was made. Was there any support?
Only heads exploding.
No shit.
"something something the 25th amendment may come back to haunt Joe Biden..."
Paraphrased from some interview of Trump in passing after 2020 election steal.
That was the January 12, 2021 speech in Alamo at the border wall. "The 25th amendment is of zero risk to me but will come back to haunt Joe Biden and the Biden administration."
This. Thank you.

Gaetz nominates Trump. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/01/boom-matt-gaetz-votes-donald-john-trump-speaker-house/
I figure Trump looked at those 20 patriots and said, I want those people in my next administration some where, let's find a place for them. He wants pro America people and they are.
"... someday I'd like to lose everything, just to see who's loyal and who's not."
1992 Conversation With Donald Trump: Charlie Rose

The good part begins at 2:15
Too many RINO's would vote against Trump. Look at how many blamed him for losing the Senate.
not if this is truly a military operation, they'll have no choice.
Just because the military is the only way, doesn't mean that they haven't been in control all this time!
At first I thought Q meant The military would step in and just take over completely. But now I feel that they've been controlling everybody.
Probably this. Trump cleaned house before leaving office and maybe even dissolved the federal government. It was his duty. We are watching a movie.
Any sauce at all
He would be derelict in his duties to allow a manchurian candidate to take office
Stable genius
literally all of Patel Patriots 20 articles on the subject lol
I've read all the articles (more than 20 BTW) and don't recall his ever stating that the federal govt was dissolved.
But that's OK,...devolved, dissolved, why quibble over a few letters ;)
yep
Yes. The military doesn't have to be front and center to take control
Do we know what the Space Force has been doing these last couple of years?
They control all communication, otherwise know as comms!
So an aside here.... But something that has bugging me....please prove me wrong with this nagging question.... (What if: " The military was the only way"to create the pandemic???? It was after all, their IP....)
So Trump was the military operation. Interesting.
No I was thinking since MRNa vaxines are intellectual property of the military.... Someone posted that here a ways back...that it might mean "tge military us the only way" that the pandemuc could have happened... But what was the date of that post???
Mmm but consider this.... The Rinos are dependant upon the funding that McConnell passed through with The Optimus Sub-prime bill... If they do not have a Congress then they cannot access those funds... If they cannot access those funds then they cannot make their promised payoffs... If they fail to meet their payments....well what sort of people do they owe laundered money payments to????
All in. Let’s go
If this does happen, I just hope "Biden" is instructed to unmask himself so the world can see he was a complete fraud all along.
Like, peel off the fake silicone mask he's wearing, whoever he is
Scooby Do cartoon enters here.
Well, since elections DON'T work, then get him in this way.
I never thought it was a good idea but I have to admit it would be funny to see how fast the votes flipped FOR McCarthy by all the true RINOs. It would make our heads spin I'm sure.
I havent been paying close to attention to this, on purpose, but can someone please fill me in on WHY they are re-voting these candidates 7 TIMES as if the votes are going to magically change?? Why didnt McCarthy step down and someone else get nominated after the 1st/2nd time?
Been saying this exact thing to SpouseAnon. It's like recounting the same fraudulent votes in an election.
Someone said McCarthy needs to bring in some Dominion voting machines if he wants to win! 😂
That is the $1000000 question. Methinks white hats are pulling the strings. People listening to these speeches are getting a lesson in the Democratic process and the contrast to the Democrats and former speaker elections.
Could Trump have someone do the job for him, I don't see him wasting time like these people
I would be fine with it.
Nailed it! No wonder Crenshaw and the rest of the psychopaths, including Hannity, we’re having a giant cow.
I don’t think DJT would have the votes-to many RINO sell outs. But I sure would not want McCarthy as President if the need arose.
If DJT brings the military with him into the Capitol, those RINO sellouts will change their minds real quick.
Ha ha!
We survived Drunk Nancy as third in line.
I don't know how we did it, but we're still here.
pretty bad optics if Trump has to lead the inquiries if you ask me
How so?
Trump has been insulated this whole past two years. Stepping in as speaker doesn't seem right, but if it is part of the plan, I'm in
the crimes were against him. for those still asleep, if it;s trump leading investigations it looks like a vendetta
ROBERT BARNES who advised 45 when President, has been in talks with 45 regarding Speaker. Does not stop 45 running for President.
https://youtu.be/PqgZN9_thhQ
Hannity, the traitor, knew! He knew and attacking Lauren on his show last night because he was literally enraged.
Yep.
The America First 20 will go down in history as having the best poker faces ever...
Not only that, but EACH and EVERY single GOP Republican will be FORCE to OPENLY TAKE A STAND.
Oh I would love to watch that. Super fun. Lfg.
What better way to engender cooperation between the establishment R's and Trump?
He backs McCarthy until he loses.
At that point Trump's name is offered. Turnabout?
Again, just spitballing.
Gaetz just said Trumps name for a vote call, didn’t “Nominate” him.
At this point why tf not
Bannon said, 'Let's try him for 100 days. A hundred days to save America. And if that don't work, we'll add some days to finish the job.'
I'd like to get everyone on the record voting for or against President Trump.
You know, everyone keeps talking about optics... and yes, I get it.
But consider this: at some point, "good" OPTICS are no longer necessary. I was listening to Dave the other day, and he kept going on and on about optics... I thought... well at some point DJT will be back into office so optics will become irrelevant.
Seems like the book “The Last President”
Trump will not be speaker.
Ever.
I did not know that Kevin McCarthy and Frank Luntz were roommates. How did I not know this?
Doesn’t sound that far-fetched. A version of this has been cycling through the rumor mill for a couple years now. mitt Romney, Mitch McConnell, and Lindsay graham would be forced to switch parties at a minimum if not completely forced out of government.
Really, the major portion of 'republican' representation is composed of nevertruper deepstate agents who will never vote him in as speaker. McCrappy is shy what, like six votes? Shit, McCrappy even has Trump himself in his corner. The right is slipping into the same blind acceptance as the left, bouncing from pipe dream to pipedream, chasing perpetually moving goalposts on an infinite field. Sad part is at least the left gets to claim they were lied to, we take care of that part ourselves.
As awesome as that would be, I think it might serve better at getting the RINO's to expose themselves in a bigger way... we will see though.
Lucy is very clearly holding the football nice and steady for me to kick. I'm sure she won't move it this time.
He won’t have enough votes
