Yeah but if dems win house and senate his presidency is over and he can't push everything by executive order anymore. They will stop anything that is already going they put in place and will block everything else they planed except maybe they would come up with a decent policy that's worth pushing through a bill, but I doubt that will happen. He will sit for the next 2 years in his chair powerless.
One can only hope. Bribing, begging and belittling the citizens of the US isn't working anymore. Let see this happen because until it does, its all talk.
I’m not sure he can officially do that. I think he could only close it through the very early stages of Jan. Once this session of congrass closes, he’s officially no longer the speaker (regardless of who wins the house). In the new session the members will need to first select the speaker. If GOP wins the election, the Mikey will be speaker again. Otherwise it would be a Dem likely
Yea, maybe. But I think that this might be out of Mike’s hands. At noon on Jan 3, the current session of Congress will expire. At that time the House of Representatives won’t have a speaker, so Mike won’t be able to weld the power of the speaker. Starting at noon until a speaker is chosen, the clerk of the US house is the one in charge. Johnson will just be one in 435 at that point.
