Who better than former President Donald Trump to fill the vacant House speaker's seat — at least in the short term — Rep. Greg Steube told Newsmax.
"How awesome would it be for President Trump to be the leader of the House and negotiate with Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden spending policies from a conservative majority House?" Stuebe, R-Fla., said Thursday on "Eric Bolling The Balance." "I can't think of somebody that would be better to do it."
"I fully support the notion; I especially support it if we can't come together as a conference," Stuebe told Bolling. "I know Jim Jordan's running. I know Steve Scalise is running. If they both can't get 218," the number of votes required to elect a speaker, "we need to have somebody that can unify our conference. Even if it's for the 45 days, 60 days that we're in this trying to pass this funding issue.
