Republican congressman to nominate Trump for House speaker
Troy Nehls, from Texas, calls Trump ‘the greatest president of my lifetime’ and says he will nominate him to replace Kevin McCarthy
* Republicans scramble after McCarthy ouster – live updates

A Texas Republican said he would nominate Donald Trump to be the next speaker of the US House of Representatives, after the party completed the unprecedented removal of one of its own, Kevin McCarthy.
Troy Nehls said: “This week, when the US House of Representatives reconvenes, my first order of business will be to nominate Donald J Trump for speaker of the US House of Representatives.
“President Trump, the greatest president of my lifetime, has a proven record of putting America first and will make the House great again.”
The speaker does not have to be a member of Congress, though no speaker has ever assumed the role without holding a seat.
Trump’s name has been floated before, including during the 15-vote marathon rightwingers put McCarthy through in January before allowing him to take up the gavel.
Trump has said he does not want to be speaker. Hannity, however, said the former president “might be open to helping the Republican party, at least in the short term, if necessary”, while still running for president.
Jim Jordan of Ohio, a possible candidate for speaker, told Hannity: “He’d be great, but actually I want Donald Trump to be the next president of the United States. But if he wants to be speaker, great. That’s where we need him, at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue [the White House], but if he wants to be speaker, that’s fine too.”
Observers were quick to pour cold water.
David Frum, a former aide to George W Bush, pointed to House ethics rules, saying: “Why Trump won’t take the speaker job in one Google search.”
* Sean Casten, a Democratic congressman from Illinois, pointed to House Republicans’ own rules, which say: “A member of the Republican leadership shall step aside if indicted for a felony for which a sentence of two or more years imprisonment may be imposed.”

2.) Can Donald Trump Become Speaker of the House? What We Know
ON 10/04/23 AT 4:32 AM EDT
On Tuesday night, the House voted 216-210 to support the motion to vacate that had been put forward by Florida rep. Matt Gaetz, with eight Republicans joining 208 Democrats in voting to remove McCarthy.
The decision, the first time in U.S. history that the House has voted to remove its own speaker, now means the members of Congress must vote for the California Republican's replacement. With no clear GOP candidate in line for the role, further infighting and chaos within the party is expected as it tries to decide who to nominate.
Who Is Voting For Donald Trump As Next House Speaker?
At least three GOP House members—Texas Rep. Troy Nehls, Florida's Greg Steube and Georgia's Marjorie Taylor Greene—have already indicated that they will support the former president in voting to select a new House Speaker.
Greene added that Trump is the "only candidate for Speaker I am currently supporting" in a lengthy X post praising the former president.
[ "We can make him Speaker and then elect him President," Greene added. ]
Tennessee rep. Andy Ogles included Trump's name in a list of potential candidates for House Speaker, but did not say whether he would support the former president. Ohio's Jim Jordan—seen as a potential replacement for McCarthy—told Fox News' Sean Hannity that Trump would be "great" as House Speaker, but did not suggest he would vote for him.

Does the Speaker of the House Need To Be a Member of Congress?
Historically, the House of Representatives has always voted for a member of the lower chamber for the role of House Speaker, but there is nothing in the Constitution that states that the position must be filled by a member of Congress. In January, Gaetz voted for Trump as House Speaker during one of the rounds of voting.
While theoretically possible, it is unlikely that Trump will receive enough support overall to be elected House Speaker. Trump, who is running for president in 2024, has also previously stated that he is not interested in the position.
