  A big, burly guy, probably a trade worker.
context: The Q lunatics were talking about this a year ago. They floated the idea of making Trump speaker then impeaching Biden and Harris so that Trump (with Speaker of the House being third in line of succession) could bypass the voters altogether. 
  It'll never work, but they sure thought it would. >
  
  They don’t even realize that their own party would never go along with this. There are enough Republicans in purple districts who won by small enough margins who will never vote for Trump because they want to get re-elected. Sure, there are 20 lunatics in congress but the country is not all made up of deep red districts - many of them win or lose their elections by a hair and they’re not about to set themselves on fire to keep Trump warm. >
  
  
  220 fascist lunatics.
  
  Remember, just because there are 20 members causing this mess, don't let the rest go merely because they let the "party" get to this state. >
  
  right, we had many opportunities for Republicans in congress under Trump to 'do the right thing' and it never happened. >
  
  A few of them did.
  McCain voting against repealing the ACA comes to mind, for one example.
  But overall yeah, you're not wrong. >
  
  I never thought in 2008 that 10 years down the line McCain would seem like a reasonable politician. >
  
  Not to mention how the battling between Obama and McCain was trivial compared to the battling between the Orange Tutu Toucher and everyone else running for 2016. >
  
  
  Hannity interrupted her, saying: "Is this a game show?," asking if the congresswoman meant to nominate one candidate one day and another one the next.
  
  Pretty rich comments from Sean Hannity, considering how unserious his show is >
  
  Hannity is all about how this makes "him" look.  Imagine trying to defend this and the total clown show for the next 2 years.  He can't and this goes to show that the GQP was run from the outside.  Those in the actual offices used to look for some one else to tell them what to do.
  This shows those holding the seats have started to believe their own ideas.  They have gone past being off the rails and now have gone over the wrecked bridge. >
  
  I feel like Hannity is flailing a bit lately now that Tucker Carlson has taken over the top spot at Fox News.  Tucker is more willing to “go there” with outright racist and bigoted commentary, like inviting that Libs of TikTok scum on his show, while Hannity seemed more comfortable using dog whistles.  But now that Tucker has brought the bigotry out in the open, people are flocking to him instead >
  
  I think this speaks to my point of the GQP actually believing their own ideas now.  Tucker is the extreme right wing and as I see it you can't go more to the right unless they go full fascist.  Tucker is the replacement for Hannity in that Hannity was close to fascist, but not quite willing to go over the line. 
  Mind you he is damn close to the line, but just not willing to go over it.  Tucker is over the line and willing to go all the way.  The GQP is already over the line, so Tucker is the replacement for Hannity.  
  Changing trains at crazy station.  All aboard for fascist city. >
  
  Yeah I get the vibe from Hannity that he’s all grift and no shame but doesn’t actually give a fuck about anything other than being the a pompous rich fuckwad. 
  Tucker on the other hand would legit be the kind of guy to administer a concentration camp. He is truly vile. >
  
  It's Tucker, after all, who gets airtime on Kremlin state propaganda tv shows. Fucking sickening. >
  
  imagine being invited to attend a propaganda news outlet for another country and saying "yes of course". You know how US civilians aren't allowed to work for foreign countries military? Why is this even allowed? >
  
  I think they just dub and replay his Fox News segments. He has just done so many pro Putin anti Ukraine segments they keep doing it. >
  
  Was listening to the Lawfare podcast episode about An Investigation into Russian State Media and Disinformation by the NYT - the reporters got access to thousands of leaked emails from correspondence within a Russian state media agency and with Russian security services - there are emails stating things like “record Tucker today”. He’s a regular. >
  
  Well yeah, of course they record his show. They need to make sure they're getting the coverage they paid for. >
  
  Trump doesn't want to be speaker of the house and actually have to do shit, he wants to be president. If he were to win and accept the position it would be extremely alarming and the logical assumption would be that he expects to become president soon after entering the line of succession. >
  
  He didn't want the actual job of president either. He wants the power. This would give him the power to take out revenge on the Dems and his detractors and control the national purse strings. He'll get someone else to do the actual day to day work. >
  
  He doesn't actually want power. He just wants attention. Power takes work. >
  
  The idea of Trump as Speaker is laughable. Does anyone believe he is capable of showing up and putting in a day's "work"  on a regular basis?
  Edit - The position requires attendance for the house to get stuff done. It also requires the Speaker understandcand follow process and procedure. The idea of Trump as Speaker for whatever stupid plan they have is inconceivable. >
  
  Right - the speaker actually has to do shit lol >
  
  You know when he hears “Speaker”, his little thought bubble lights up and delights him with clips of him speaking at rallies. This is probably, quite literally, what he thinks the job entails. >
  
  Another reason he hates Pelosi. A woman speaking instead of him. She was constantly telling him what he could and couldn't do. Who made this woman the official speaker? Why would you even need a speaker when Trump is President? He's speaking all the time. He didn't need a speaker, much less Pelosi. >
  
  People are always coming up to me, “you’re such a great speaker, nobody speaks as good as you, I’ve never heard anything like it before.” All the time. All the time. >
  
  Forgot to start it out with a ...'SIR,...' >
  
  With tears in their eyes
