As noted by Politico in 2021, when asked about Donald Trump getting involved in midterm primaries, head of the National Republic Congressional Committee Tom Emmer told reporter Jacob Rubaskin, “He’s a private citizen, and he’s entitled to his own opinion.” “I would tell him that it’s probably better for us that we keep these people and we make sure that we have a majority that can be sustained going forward.”
Emmer followed later in March saying Trump getting involved in the GOP congressional primaries was “not gonna be helpful.”
Fast forward to 2023, Emmer is now the House Republican Whip and wants to be Speaker of the House. Apparently, Emmer called President Trump this weekend seeking an endorsement. WATCH:
.
President Trump says, “I’m trying to stay out of that as much as possible.” Meanwhile, all the Republicans who threw their name in the hat to become Speaker of the House want his endorsement. lol
I’m sure President Trump will leverage the “optimal solution.”
Don’t call us, we’ll call you.
Too wordy.
How about: F U
Backstabbing your caucus and candidates works so well until you need to kiss the brass ring.
But I don’t think the ring’s holder is looking for affection right now.
Tom Emmer is a disgrace. Any Republican that supports ending the electoral college is not really a Republican. Not to mention his Soros connection. He is not just a no, but a hell NO!
He’s probably one of the GOPe that voted in private to remove Jim Jordan.
Disgraceful beyond words. No scruples.
Of course he is, because he knew McCarthy would endorse him for speaker instead. Disgusting. I’m over the whole thing.
I’m from Minnesota. I’ve met Tom Emmer. I supported Tom Emmer for Governor. I regret it.
Tom Emmer campaigned as Ron Paul-lite.
Tom Emmer is a Vin Weber/Karl Rove acolyte.
Caroline Wren totally called him out today on the late hour of Bannon
She did indeed…. Dental records were required to identify Emmer when she was done eviscerating him….
Love Wren lately. Does she have a new gig. She is certainly speaking her mind. Love it. : ))
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sorry I missed that! Sounds like fun!
Thanks. I looked it up and listened.
Caroline Wren Joins WarRoom To Discuss Tom Emmer’s Attempt To Be Speaker (rumble.com)
Worse than that.
Vin Weber is one of the puppet masters that “politicians” bow to here in Minnesota.
I was once told not to “make waves” in the MN GOP by someone high up in the ranks. They told me to “be careful,” as in to really be careful or I could get hurt, and apparently ol’ Vinnie was who I needed to be fearful of. Him or his minions.
All you need to do is look at our feckless “republican leaders” and how they vote along with — in tandem step with — the dems to know we have no representation either here at home or in D.C.
Emmer is a Democrat. No two ways about it.
50 of those backyards. Can testify to two, studying a third.
All similar stories to yours.
From MN too and I know the family. Great family, but Tom is on a quest for personal gain. Total GOPe.
Tom is very easy to have a beer and burger with..but Vin Weber got his clutches into him during his first run for governor and turned Emmer to the dark side.
I remember after he lost that run for governor (the Dems made hay with his drunk driving record such that i don’t think the Republicans tried too hard to help him win). He did the “Bob & Tom” morning show I assume to make some money and try and rebuild his brand. I loved that show but he sounded very, very bitter. The MN Republican Party is seriously messed up and has been for years.
Seriously messed up.
These people are pathetic.
I prefer the term “evil.”
I have no pity for them at all.
What does he have…a magic wand or something?
PDJT…..you get the KING maker….or the boomerang!!! Your choice!
What is happening with the lawyers that flipped on Trump?
You mean the ones the media claimed flipped.
No one flipped on Trump. There is nothing to flip on.
You would not have the opportunity to pose such a question ……except on line…..as our paths would not cross…..we run in different circles.
Have a great evening!
He should tell Emmer “I did make an endorsement but you all rejected him. Next question.”
Liked!
Supporting Emmer would be rather like Israelis welcoming Hamas.
Exactly the enemy within. The Snake poem comes to mind.
Ask Soros. He’ll give you one.
This is the game they play…fortunately, many are wise to it that watch politics and pay attention.
Sadly, there is another 60% that still watch fake news.
“Well see what happens!!” I love that!
Just say no to Tom Emmer and Austin Scott. Those are the only two running for SOH that voted to affirm 2020 electoral college votes right off the bat.
Everyone else on the list objected to at least two states. They all have their pros and cons, but Emmer and Scott are swamp creatures for sure. We need a change in direction not a double down on GOPe.
You mean the guy who thinks 2020 was legit, was in favor of the J6 committee? That guy?🤯
Hmmmm wonder what he’s seeing .. A lot of great people.🤣🤣🤣
Tom Emmer is an evil, evil, disgusting man.
He is putrid.
He is rotten to the core.
I am sickened thinking Emmer might be Speaker, but believe President Trump will do what’s best — even if it means he gives his approval to a major swamp RAT.
My take on Trumps comments is that he exposed Emmer as a hypocrite.
Emmer, while having a 🍔 & 🍺 with you, will stab you in the back.
Dems at least stab you in the front.
Emmer looks like an alcoholic. Stay away from him. He is not the face of the new GOP. No independent voter will sign up for this new GOP team, with him leading it.
RINOs just back off. You had a good run over the past few decades, but you blew the future of this party and this country. You missed the shift to what Trump was trying to tell us. Peggy Noonan remains s100% tone deaf. So just back off now.
Well, a DUI was brought up the first time he ran for office.
Talk about the snake trying to sweet talk a ride on your back. A viper is always a viper — fangs gonna fang.
he mentioned the poem in NH
Very funny. It is clear many are trying to look like populists.
I have no faith that the GOPe will pick anyone that we would approve. The only option left for us is to clean the House…literally.
Straight ticket nonincumbent in 2024.
this nasty piece of work is McCarthy version2.0… just more beltway sewage that represents K Street not Main Street
Talk abut chutzpah. This has got to set some kind of record.
Yes , That great line from the opening scene , the supplicant asking for a favor and humbly asking “ Godfather , will you be my friend .. “. For our Don , the answer is “ Let me think about it “ …
I’m for Byron.
Jim Jordan
He should not even be in Congress….

The guy nobody wanted to stand beside is all of a sudden the one everyone claims to be bestist buddies with.
What does Emmer think he’s bringing to the table? They do realize they’re trying to negotiate with someone who made a fortune negotiating for his own bet interest, don’t they?
They think they are smarter than everyone else.
Emmer trying to con President Trump into endorsing him. He’s not MAGA, but, Emmer would succeed as a backstabber. Done with that sh*t.
IMHO, perhaps Donalds is the best choice, out of a sorry lot. If he supports more money to Ukraine, I would be very disappointed.
With all this commotion, where things are figuratively and literally blowing up in the middle east, the only thing happening in Ukraine will be li’l Zelenskyy laying on his therapist’s couch crying that nobody loves him any more.
My violin is in the shop, for repairs. No sympathy for this pianist.
Be Careful Who You Stab in the Back.
Tom Emmer: Will you endorse me?
Donald Trump: The only way I would endorse you is if you were the only Republican member of the House still alive !!!
Tom Emmer: So, I’ll put that down as your are still undecided.
HELL no.
Note: this has not been confirmed
It seems the CCP has been sending weapons too – on Wednesday, October 18, 2023, Hamas reveals inside story: Terrorist weapons come from Communist China?
StayGate
Wednesday, October 18, 2023
As of the time of our publication, Israel has not officially launched a ground war in Gaza, but U.S. Secretary of State Blinken has returned to Israel again for diplomatic mediation, and the Israeli Foreign Minister also warned that this may be a “long war.”
At the same time, the U.S. Department of Defense also issued a “deployment preparation order” for 2,000 military personnel, ready to send them to the Middle East to deal with this war at any time. However, the United States emphasized that it will not allow these 2,000 U.S. troops to go to Israel to participate in the fighting. Instead, they will be stationed in neighbouring countries to provide medical assistance, security, and removal of unexploded ordnance.
Well, I personally have some doubts about the US statement. After all, the big move mobilized 2,000 US troops, which is almost four battalions of troops. If they are only sent to assist in surrounding medical rescue and stand guard as security guards, it seems a bit overkill.
However, the United States certainly does not want to directly intervene in this war at this stage. I think the main purpose of the U.S. mobilization order is not to “fight”, but to deter Hezbollah, Syria and Iran, and tell them not to easily join this war and not to help Hamas, otherwise the US will be ready and waiting. If you don’t believe it, give it a try. In other words, the US military is helping to “see the field” so that Israel and Hamas can show off.
However, Hamas clearly only has about 10,000 troops, so why does it dare to “offend the big with the small” so boldly? Moreover, the methods are more brutal than before. It is obvious that it is to stimulate Israel to pursue Hamas, so as to make the war more chaotic. Behind this, as we said before, it has something to do with the big boss of Hamas.
We have analyzed in the previous two episodes that on the surface, the financial backer behind Hamas is Iran, but in fact, Hamas should be controlled by the CCP, because the big financial backer behind Iran is the CCP. The CCP is likely to use Iran as a “black glove” to outsource the funds, weapons and orders provided by the CCP to Hamas for execution. Now there is new supporting evidence for this statement.
Yao Cheng, a former lieutenant colonel of the Chinese Communist Navy Command, pointed out in the past two days that Hamas fired 5,000 rockets this time, and they could reach Tel Aviv. This is no longer something ordinary homemade rockets can do. A multi-barreled standard weapon was used. Currently, only the United States, Russia, and China have the ability to mass-produce long-range rockets, but Russia currently does not have the ability to provide external support, so only the Chinese Communist Party is the most likely source of long-range rockets.
Also, we have seen that Hamas launched an attack simultaneously from three fronts: land, sea and air force. This was obviously possible only because of the command of a major power. In particular, Hamas rarely used a powered paraglider this time. This equipment was most likely developed by the “China Aviation Development Hunan Power Machinery Research Institute” in Zhuzhou, Hunan, also known as the “608 Institute.” Therefore, from the perspective of weapons and equipment, the CCP is most likely the largest financial backer and weapons owner behind Hamas. Moreover, in addition to military weapons, public opinion weapons are also tricky.
When the whole world is condemning Hamas for launching terrorist attacks, the Chinese Communist Party has always refused to condemn it. Instead, it has repeatedly peddled its “Palestinian founding theory”, pretending to be neutral and avoiding the important and trivial to avoid condemning Hamas. In a roundabout way, it provides legitimacy to Hamas. From this point of view, it can be seen that Hamas’s attack on Israel is in the interests of the CCP.
Therefore, the public opinion propaganda war of the Chinese Communist Party media has always centered on “Israeli attacks on Gaza” and “Israeli air strikes causing civilian deaths.” However, they are unwilling to mention how Hamas brutally attacked Israel and caused a large number of civilian deaths. Such a big move by Israel to counterattack. To put it simply, the CCP’s public opinion tactics are “dislocation of cause and effect” and “quoting things out of context.” The subtext is to support and acquiesce to Hamas.
However, if this continues, Israel and the CCP will inevitably drift apart. Perhaps the Israeli government will suddenly realize that the reason why “anti-Israel generals” such as Hamas and Hezbollah are so arrogant is because the leaders behind them are the CCP’s big brother. Therefore, will Israel also join the “anti-communist alliance” of European and American countries? Next comes the focus.
In addition, as everyone knows, China is Israel’s third largest trading partner. Israel also cooperates with the CCP on many high-end technologies, including artificial intelligence, quantum computing, agricultural technology, new energy, etc. Even Huawei has set up a research and development centre in Israel. This also made the United States worry that the defense technology they exported to Israel might be leaked to the Chinese Communist Party.
Now that the CCP’s support for Hamas has alarmed Israel, it may be difficult for the CCP to obtain important high-end technologies from Israel in the future. However, why is the CCP still willing to confront and cut off Israel and sacrifice another high-tech source country at this difficult time when it is technologically blocked by European and American countries?
Obviously, in the CCP’s international struggle plan, sacrificing small Israel to make the Middle East war bigger will trap the United States and NATO, distract the U.S. military deployment, and consume U.S. weapons and ammunition. This will bring even greater consequences to the CCP. , more valuable long-term interests and strategic advantages. Therefore, from various perspectives, the CCP is very likely to be the main culprit behind this Hamas terrorist attack.

This has what to do with Emmer and the speakership topic?
Trying to derail the convo..
The U.S. and Russia and the CCP may well be face to face. And, Emmer is the worst speaker they could select, and Bidin the worse President.
All part of the same problem.
All you really need to know is: A) Emmer is a product of Soros money and B) the Liberty scores of each candidate.
Byron Donalds = 100, Kevin Hern = 82, Gary Palmer = 80, Mike Johnson = 74, Tom Emmer = 69, Austin Scott = 65, Pete Sessions = 63, Jack Bergman = 57 Dan Meuser = 68 but he’s already withdrawn.
Byron Donalds is clearly the best candidate.
Love Byron Donald’s – Two Donald’s are better than one 😉
Agree 100%
President Trump looks great!
Kash Patel threw out Devin Nunes as apotential speaker . I could live with that. I also saw Tom Fitton and Alec Jones mentioned as potential speakers .
Any of the above would make heads explode .
Devin Nunes would be almost as good as President Trump in the role of Speaker…
although his name has been floated by several ‘influencers’, I’ve watched for a sign of interest from Mr Nunes. So far, I haven’t seen any…but perhaps others have?
He’s probably earning a LOT more at the helm of Truth Social than he would as Speaker. With less BS and virtually NO media whining and lying about him.
It’s gotta be Donalds , Johnson or bust.
Jim Jordan, the most well-liked and trusted candidate, pulled 196 votes in the last go-around; there is no way (IMHO) that any of the single digit alternatives to Jordan can pull more, which worries me that the Jeffries/Pelosi gang will do some very dirty politicking to regain the chair of Speaker.
The RINOS really don’t give two hoots for this country. They make me sick.
I will never vote for a Democrat. Nor will I vote for a RINO. I know that means Ds will be elected. I don’t care. The RINOs must go.
People keep using this word “Republican”. I don’t think it means what they think it means.
I sure hope President Trump knows that Emmer is the worst never Trumper sleazeball ever.
Hey Emmer, ‘when the phone don’t ring’, you’ll know it’s President Trump with your endorsement….
Soros stooge wants an endorsement.. F. No!
A soros lackey, asking the MAGA President to endorse him. He’s as trustworthy as scrotum eyes is.
RNC is fundraising on this. I just got an email asking for my endorsements, #1 1nd #2, and donation. They are preetending we have a say in this matter.
Well, Emmer called and Trump spokesman stated it was a pleasant conversation and no mention of endorsement. But that didn’t stop Emmer from lying.
He even looks like an “old time” crook…when he gets voted out ,maybe he can get a job as a extra in the movies.
Well, that back stab and forked tongue didn’t take long.
Emmer is a user.
That is all he does with everyone and everything.
His wife? He uses her, too, to make him look good out on the campaign trail. And everyone faints and fawns over seeing the little woman, just like Mrs. DeSanctimonious wanted everyone to do over her.
So Emmer tried to use President Trump and it backfired. Why, little self-licking Tommy can’t be told NO, so instead the narcissist turns around and proves what everyone has been saying is right; he is and always has been a never Trumper.
smells like a meatball
Read the Room, you American sell-out. We The People want you GONE.
I don’t want Emmer as speaker — so I hope President Trump endorses him. That will keep the RINOs and Dems from voting him in!
(In fact, PDJT probably should have said last time, “Elect anyone but Jim Jordan. He would be a terrible speaker!” When you have a Congress loaded with RINOs and Never Trumpers who want to thwart everything you suggest, use reverse psychology.)
The best thing to happen is for there not to be a Speaker until the Continuing Resolution expires.
Maybe we will finally get a real budget.
Emmer is a total snake, slithering for power. Biggest rino MN produced. He failed to win governorship and then ran for the house. Minnesotans voted for supposedly a republican candidate. He never was one. He is a scumbag and needs to be removed. Actually the entire MN republican party is scum. Corrupt and worth nothing.
Emmer has as much of a chance as Pence has as POTUS.
‘Emmer sum wishfool thawts fa shuh.
