Hey, Republicans. Skip the middleman and make Putin the Speaker of the House

Yeah, I know. The Constitution says you have to be an American citizen. But when did Republicans start caring about that "Constitution crap?" TFG ignored the Constitution for his four years in office and none of them said a word.

Some reporter should keep their ear to the door where the Republicans are meeting to choose their Speaker. Wouldn't be surprised to hear chants of, "Putin, Putin, Putin."

He doesn't want to do the work, but getting closer to the election, he might want to be the default President in a contested election and try for "Jan 6 The Sequel".
