Jim Jordan addresses possibility of Trump becoming House speaker
Fox News
Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, explained why he's running to replace ousted Speaker Kevin McCarthy and weighed in on the possibility of Donald Trump taking the job.
REP. JIM JORDAN: I think President Trump wants to be President of the United States. That's what I want. I think he's the best president we've had, certainly in my lifetime, did more of what he said he would do than any president I can remember. I want him to be President of the United States. I think that's what he wants to do. And I think that's what's going to happen, because the country is so fed up with the policies of Joe Biden. I think President Trump is going to be our nominee. He's winning by, I don't know, 40, 50 points. And I think he's going to be our next president. He's beating Joe Biden. And I think even an ABC poll like a week ago by ten, 11 points. So the country knows his policies worked. I think he wants to be president. I want him to be president.
