  • Donald Trump said that only one person could for sure become the next Speaker of the House.
  • That person is Jesus Christ.
  • "Other than that I haven't seen anyone that can guarantee it," Trump told reporters.

Former President Donald Trump on Monday said that Jesus could be elected speaker of the House, but the rest of the nine current hopefuls may struggle.

"There's only one person that can do it all the way. Do you know who that is? Jesus Christ. If Jesus came down and said, 'I want to be Speaker,' he would do it," Trump told reporters in New Hampshire. "Other than that I haven't seen anyone that can guarantee it."
