HMM. A "state of the art ballroom hospital" opens in Sept 2028, with Trump leaving on 01-20-29? Am I missing something?

27. Good lord, you need to do some brushing up on your knowledge of how the government works

Johnson’s term as speaker, and the terms of every member of congress, expires at the end of this year.

On January 3, 2027, all the members-elect, as certified by their states (the president has no involvement in the process) and select a new speaker, who then swears in the rest of the house en masse.

Since there will be more democratic members-elect, the speaker will be a democrat.

There is a mechanism for objecting to the seating of an individual member, and there is a reason it hasn’t been used in over a hundred years - it would result in a tit for tat objection war resulting in zero representatives being sworn in.

It’s a lack of understanding of how the government actually works that leads to imaginations running wild and propagating misinformation and Doomerism.
