The question came up last year when Republicans floated the idea of pushing Trump into the role after Kevin McCarthy was voted out. Just as was the case with Trump, Musk could become speaker because you don't actually need to be a House member to hold the position.
The U.S. Constitution's only requirement for the speaker of the House is that the person is chosen by the House of Representatives. Thus, Musk could serve as the House speaker if he got the support and votes to do so.
He's not competent enough and he'd have the spotlight at him the entire thime. Please let it happen!
I'm for it for one simple reason: the sooner folks realize that our entire "democracy" is a complete sham gussied up as reality TV the sooner folks might start caring enough to do something about it
I know accelerationism is bad, but damn it, I love watching the US destroy itself.
I don’t think that matters for speaker of the house? It does matter for president and vp
that's some "woke" agenda there if I had to use the same term they made.
I'm not surprised by the effort, but I am surprised that this is technically allowed. You'd think the Dems would have just made the CIA director Speaker or Senate VP instead of doing it through Nancy and Schumer. Must be an optics thing.
