Sean welcome to hannity, history and capitol hill eight republican lawmakers joining al 208 House Democrats to remove Kevin Mccarthy as speaker. Mccarthy will not seat the speaker sheet again. Now sources are telling me at this hour that some House Republicans have been in contac with and has started an effort to draft former president donal trump to be the next speaker an i have been told that President Trump might be open to helping the Republican Party at least i the short term if necessary. If its needed. Here is former speaker mc carthy earlier tonight, lets take a look. I believe i can continue to fight me be in a different manner. I will not run for speaker again. I will have the Conference Pick someone else. I think today was a political decision by the democrats. I think the things they have done in the past hurt the institution. They just started removing people from committee and they just started doing other things. My fear is the institution felt today. You cant do the job
flank? well, this is how they got in the situation, as harry reid put up these things to gin up enthusiasm before the election and the plan was going to be to make them too toxic to gain any republican support and then blame republicans. it didn t work well, kim, why do it now after the fact, that failed. why do it now? well, now, he s on the hook to some of these groups and actually make some progress. and the reality is, most of this is not going to pass any one of those items in and of themselves to take three weeks to debate and get through. they re going to end up having to focus on the stuff that is absolutely necessary and likely to pass this food safety bill which is teed up to get a vote and then, you know, look, because the democrats ignored some big things like passing appropriations bill and they re going to have to deal with funding the government and probably the tax issue, i wouldn t expect more.
