User ID: 74457708 United States11/21/2018 09:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don’t think speaker is ever given to a first time politician and he would have to wait until 2020 and get elected to the House of Representatives first. The speaker is usually a very seasoned representative who knows all the players, and how to move and deal in the house. Their entire job is lining up votes and moving legislation, it’s not something a first timer who has no experience in legislating or in Congress would be given.. and if it was then that’s great for us because he will be a pretty ineffective speaker without any experience |

User ID: 76009415 United States11/21/2018 10:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Constitution does not require the Speaker to be an elected member of the House of Representatives, although every Speaker thus far has been. ... The current House Speaker is Congressman Paul Ryan from Wisconsin. ButO is married to a billionaire family. Its easy for people like that to give away everyone elses tax money and invite cheap labor illegals into the country. TThe media sells it and you live the roll. Ozzy Lobo7 |

It’s never been done and skate board Beto won’t be the first. It’s kind of a slap in the face to democracy to have your leader of your chamber be unelected |

He is in exactly the right position to run for Speaker Know your facts before you 1 star something. Life is a spiritual war and no matter where we lay our head, we live in a warzone. There will be casualties. You do get to choose your side. I chose the Bright Side where my God fights for me. Others chose the Dark Side and fight for an entity that views them with disdain and discards them. |

But isn't that hypocrisy? Democrats wear hypocrisy like a badge of honor, they don't care how much their "principles" contradict each other. Whatever is convenient at the moment. |

I want to make stickers to put on all BETO signs that say: "Robert Francis O'Rourke no tiene ninguna gota de sangre Hispano" Translated: Robert Francis O'Rourke does not have one drop of Hispanic blood. The dims must think all Hispanics are stupid because they sure treat them that way. |

He may run for the other senate seat in 2020 He may run for presidency in 2020 (so far he as denied it) He most likely will be the vice presidential candidate in 2020. |

Re-Instate Smith-Mundt! User ID: 39723407 United States11/21/2018 12:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That's what I was thinking too. How can he be Speaker when he's not even in Congress? Of course, we're talking about dealing with Democrats here, so I guess ANYTHING is possible coming from the Party which routinely claims dead and illegal voters as "valid". "I have come to the conclusion that all news should be treated like 9/11, assume it is a psyop with actors participating in a staged event complete with props, until proven otherwise, in which case assume whatever is being recorded, reported, televised, is distortions/lying by omission/outright lies, until proven otherwise." - Anonymous, 4-13-12 |
