Former President Donald Trump said he was intrigued by the idea of leading opposition to President Joe Biden by running for Congress and becoming speaker of the House, an idea that is gaining currency among his supporters. The strategy was floated as Trump prepares for his return to the political spotlight at the North Carolina Republican convention on Saturday night. During a Friday interview, far-right radio host Wayne Allyn Root took up the idea that Trump did not have to wait for the 2024 presidential election to regain power. Instead, he could run in next year's midterms as part of a Republican wave that retakes the House of Representatives. 'Then you become the speaker of the House, lead the impeachment of Biden and start criminal investigations against Biden,' said Root.
