Related: About this forumOMG!! Will House GOP Implosion DELAY Trump INAUGURATION?!! - Meidas Touch
How does 91 year old President Chuck Grassley sound to you? That could happen if just one more MAGA vote defects from Mike Johnsons vote tally for Speaker of the House starting tomorrow, as MAGA struggles to hold on to 2 Freedom Caucus members, and a missing Texas congresswoman to be able to open Congress and conduct any business.
Michael Popok explains the process, the likelihood of Hakeem Jeffries becoming Speaker, and what happens if Johnson gets McCarthyd and they cant elect a Speaker by the Jan6th certification deadline. - 01/02/2025.

For one thing, I don't believe the Constitution has any provision for that.
Problems electing a Speaker ought to be irrelevant.

The repukes are in disarray. Hell, they aren't even sure who their 'resident elect is. Musk-Trump or Trump-Musk and good old JD, I think they need to put his picture on a milk carton.
