re: #141 KGxvi

Random thought… let’s say Biden wins big and the Dems hold the House and Pelosi decides to retire (which, allegedly was her plan had Clinton won in 2016), who is on the short list to be the next Speaker? Please tell me it’s not Hoyer.

I hope Hakeem Jeffries is considered at the least.

Speculation is it’s gonna be Hakeem Jeffries who would be the first African-American Speaker. It’s not gonna be Steny. Nancy and Steny don’t even get along that well.

Hoyer has an extremely bad tendency say shit that Pelosi has to immediately walk back because it’s nowhere indicative of what the larger caucus actually wants. Hoyer is an island and there’s a reason he never won any of his challenges to the speakership.
