Rep Tom Emmer (R-MN) has had a rough time with President Trump, especially when it comes to the race for Speaker of the House. Emmer was the official nominee of the Republicans for the position for a couple of hours, and then Trump brought the hammer down and, before Emmer even ascended to the chair, he was booted out.
Rather than taking revenge, he appears to be striving for our much-sought after nomination:
Emmer: "Donald Trump has never been stronger. He's become more than Donald Trump. He is an icon of the ages. When he speaks, people listen."
Emmer: “Donald Trump has never been stronger. He’s become more than Donald Trump. He is an icon of the ages. When he speaks, people listen.”
An icon of the ages? Crazy. Perhaps known as the worst President of the United States, but that’s really a statement for historians fifty years from now.
Or is he setting Trump up for a revenge shot, metaphorical of course, heard ’round the world? I dunno about that. I remember when he was running for Minnesota governor and was uttering balderdash about restaurant servers making plenty of money. He’s not too bright.
