According to news reports in the media during the week, it is claimed that US House of Representatives member Tom Emmer, known for his support statements for the crypto currency industry in the past, has started preparations to run for the Presidency of the House of Representatives. According to the allegations, Emmer has already gained the support of many House members.
A First in the Political History of the US
The presidency crisis in the House of Representatives, which has been going on for weeks, has led to a first in the history of the United States, and for the first time, a House Speaker has been removed from office with the votes of his own party. The process, which continued until McCarthy’s removal from the presidency due to the decreasing support among Republicans, led to a new presidential crisis.
After McCarthy’s removal from office, Patrick McHenry temporarily became the President of the US House of Representatives until a new president is elected. However, the process regarding the presidential election remained uncertain for weeks due to the failure to establish a majority.
Meanwhile, while the process for the Presidency of the House of Representatives remained uncertain, American journalist Jake Sherman claimed on his Twitter account that US House of Representatives member Tom Emmer has also started preparations for the presidency candidacy. It is claimed that Emmer, known for his support statements for the crypto currency industry, has started negotiations with Republican members of the House of Representatives.
