7. If Dems take the House back, that's the end of his Speakership.

Tuesday

We’ll have a new Speaker in January.

I don’t know what’ll happen in the Senate in November, but if the House flips to majority Dem, then the Speaker will be a Dem.

It’d be best if we flipped BOTH the House and Senate. But the party that gets the most House votes then gets to pick the Speaker. Let it be DEMS!
