    @adoo will tell us inflation isn’t happening and our economy isn’t in a recession. Oh wait, that’s already happened!

    On a serious note, Trump will likely violate his gag order because he’s a fuking moron.

    Jordan probably becomes speaker today and trump normally goes ham in the wee hours so he may have missed his chance to win this one.

    so I’ll vote speaker happens first

    Need a definition on "violates gag order." Is this what we perceive to be a violation, or does it need to be recognized by the issuing judge as such?

    I ask, because Trump will try to get as close to the edge as possible and operate in a gray zone of plausible deniability and everyone is going to debate whether he did or didn't actually violate the gag order, and that maybe the judge is afraid to call him on it (he already started immediately after the order was made). So, I move that the judge has to find him to be in violation for it to count.

    In which case, I'll vote that they get a new speaker.

    Trump is more reliable than the House. I vote for the violation of the gag order (attacking witnesses, prosecutors, or court staff in the January 6 insurrection case).

    As of 10-20-2023



    still no new speaker, as the insurrectonist, Gym Jordon, and the speaker wannable, has been rejected 3 times, each time with more Republicans voting against him.

    Beat me to it. Even with the more stringent definition I suggested, Trump wins (at losing).

    Updated poll question,


    will Trump will jailed for another violation of the gag order before a new speaker is appointed?
