Trump refuses to endorse House speaker candidate, cites Jesus.
Former President Donald Trump’s Bold Statement on House Speakership Race
Former President Donald Trump recently made a captivating remark when discussing the House speakership race. Speaking to reporters in New Hampshire, Trump humorously suggested that the task of securing the required number of votes for a candidate is so challenging that only Jesus himself could accomplish it.
“That four threshold is very tough. It’s a very tough thing no matter who it is,” Trump said. “There’s only one person that can do it all the way. Do you know who that is? Jesus Christ.”
“If Jesus came down and said, ‘I want to be speaker,’ he would do it. Other than that, I haven’t seen anybody that can guarantee it,” he quipped.
Despite his bold statement, Trump maintained a positive attitude, expressing his belief that something positive will eventually happen in the selection process. He emphasized his commitment to staying above the political fray during this time.
Trump also mentioned that he has had conversations with numerous candidates, describing them as “terrific people.” However, since the removal of Rep. Kevin McCarthy as speaker, Republicans have faced difficulties in choosing a new leader. Both Reps. Steve Scalise and Jim Jordan were rejected after being selected by the party, leaving no clear front-runner for the nomination.
