Former President Donald Trump is officially backing Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, the pugnacious House Judiciary Committee chairman and longtime Trump defender, to succeed Kevin McCarthy as House speaker.
“Congressman Jim Jordan has been a STAR long before making his very successful journey to Washington, D.C., representing Ohio’s 4th Congressional District,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social site shortly after midnight Friday. “He will be a GREAT Speaker of the House, & has my Complete & Total Endorsement!”
When you think you’re a king-maker but are really only a clown-appointer.
The scary thing is Jordan won with over 69% of the vote in his district.
That is not surprising. Ohio is about as red as it gets.
That’s not entirely accurate what about Sherrod Brown? He’s definitely facing a tough reelection but he is a three term senator.
