Former President Donald Trump is expected to endorse House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan to be the next speaker of the House of Representatives. Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy was ousted from the post earlier this week.
Rep. Troy Nehls said Trump will endorse Jordan in a post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, on Thursday. The Texas lawmaker said he thinks other Republicans should follow suit."Just had a great conversation with President Trump about the Speaker’s race," Nehls posted."He is endorsing Jim Jordan, and I believe Congress should listen to the leader of our party. I fully support Jim Jordan for Speaker of the House.
Jordan's main competitor in efforts to attain the gavel is House Majority Leader Steve Scalise . Scalise is currently garnering his own growing list of supporters, including Reps. Steve Womack , Sam Graves , Rob Wittman , and others.McCarthy was removed as speaker earlier this week after the first successful motion to vacate the House speaker passed by a slim margin. All House Democrats joined eight House Republicans in voting to pass the motion to vacate.
The motion to vacate was brought about by Rep. Matt Gaetz . He filed it after McCarthy garnered Democratic support to narrowly avoid a government shutdown over the weekend.
