Tell me why Paul Ryan was the 54th? You would think that would make Pelosi the 52nd and 55th... My guess is they number the speakers differently than they number Presidents. If Trump is elected in 2024 he will be the 45th AND the 47th. I guess Pelosi screwed the numbers up when she was elected twice. No idea why they do that differently, but all the crap I took for making a mistake is sad.
Good lord. I made a mistake - sorry.
