    Speaker would mean Trump having to “read” and “pay attention”. No way he can do it.

      Not to mention allow others to speak. Could you imagine Trump with the gavel allowing anyone else to talk? He’d open the session, begin a 2 hour gripe fest on whatever conspiracy theory he saw most recently, and then would gavel the House into recess to get McDonald’s.

      He’d fulfill their primary goal, which is to make government a performative bullshit fest that accomplishes absolutely nothing other than distractions and propaganda.
