Former President Donald Trump said Wednesday he’d be willing to serve as Speaker of the House if he was called upon by House Republicans to do so.

“A lot of people have been talking to me about Speaker. All I can say is we’ll do whatever’s best for the country and for the Republican Party,” Trump told reporters.

“A lot of people have been asking me about it but we’re leading, I don’t know if you read the papers much, but we’re leading (The GOP Presidential primary) by 50 points. My focus is totally on the being president. If I can help them during the process, I would do it.”

This comes as Infowars founder Alex Jones, War Room host Steve Bannon, and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) floated Trump has a possible candidate for House Speaker following McCarthy’s ouster.

Bannon calls on Donald Trump to become Speaker of the House.

I’m supporting President Donald J. Trump to be the next Speaker of the House!

He has a proven four year record of putting America First and implementing the policies the American people want.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who initiated the vote to vacate McCarthy from the speakership, has in the past supported the idea of Trump becoming speaker.
