Who should be the new Republican Speaker of the House in 2021?

That is really good to hear. We have an embarrassment of riches here in the House. I would not be disappointed in any of these names.

Would Ratcliffe be aggressive enough though? He seems like a quiet guy. I want someone who's gonna tear through some Democrat ass. And there's some LARGE ones out there!

I want someone who can make Geico Caveman Al Green cry.

It should not goes to any one who is

Spewing out fake righteousness talking points

It belongs to someone who demonstrating actions

You'd think the gop house leader

A man thats been shot

Would be full of actions not just words

But there there all are sounding sanctimonious

He would be another Paul Ryan disaster. That is why I left him off the list.

I agree, OP. I think his heart may be in the right place, unlike Ryan who doesn't have a heart, just an impressive widow's peak, but Kevin doesn't have the cajones for the role. We need someone aggressive. A MEAT EATER!

Trey Gowdy or Jim Jordan.

Any of them will do for me. I don't want McCarthy. He was Ryans stooge and I"m sure if he was elected, he would be JUST LIKE RYAN. He is one of those R's that know how to TALK a good game when not in power and OBSTRUCT the President when in power.

My choice also.

Rand Paul or Ted Cruz

He's a Senator. I believe he is not eligible

They all sound right for the job.

Actually, Trump should dump Pence for Jordan for VP before 2020.

Name change to Houstalanta would fit.

What alternative reality are you living in rofl

I think that's a great idea, frankly. I'd love to chuck Pence. Never trusted him. Jordan would be a good choice and would set us up nicely for 2024.

Or Ratcliffe or Nunes. I could see either of those guys. But Jordan probably has more charisma.

Yes, he has no problem going on the offensive. Similar to Gowdy, but more polished.

Somebody under 70.

Gaetz has too much baggage. Suspicious DUI charges & a son of political privilege, plus unmarried 37 y/o. We can do better.

Lol. I jab my brother about his district ALL the time! One of the perks of living near Rice, I guess.

No, thank you!

Anyone's better than the last Republican Speaker of the House.

McCarthy

we will fight as long as even the slimmest chance exists to turn things around.

Dan Crenshaw

I would go with whichever one would be the least likely to take shit lying down. So...Jordan is my pick. I think Nunes really stepped it up recently but idk how he would operate in the longer term. Jordan doesn't allow anyone to rattle him. Gaetz is okay but he is not quite right, and I can't come up with words to explain what I mean.

This is my second post on this. While my #1 would be Jordan, I was just thinking how awesome it might be to have a R Californian take over, leaving Pelosi and Schiff (also Californians) to lick their wounds as the U.S. refuses to be run by the coasts.

He's a gun grabber in patriot clothing.

I gave up him after El Paso and his support for red flag laws. He only changed his tune when others like me said something.

He is just like a lot of former military or leo - they think they are the only ones fit to carry.

My vote is for fat man, just for the troll level.

Houston is a shithole... full of Katrina refugees.
