Trump is a loser. Jordan is a loser.
Maybe they could get one of the Clintons to help them.
The House could have a Speaker by tomorrow. The fact that the Speaker is chosen by a majority of those present and voting is a House procedural rule, it’s not in your Constitution. If this rule is changed to allow the election by a plurality, Hakeem Jeffries would be the new Speaker.
Alternatively, if just a handful of Republicans were suddenly struck with a mysterious illness which prevented them from being there for the vote, Jeffries would win again.
I can dream, can’t I?

If we're dreaming, instead of "struck by mysterious illness", "mauled by bears" has a nice ring.
