United States President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Saturday to support Democrat Nancy Pelosi's efforts to become the next Speaker of the House of Representatives. Trump said that he can provide Pelosi with as many Republican votes as she wants, adding that the current House Minority Leader "earned it." However, the president said that there are some within the Democratic Party that wouldn't like to see Pelosi elected as the next House Speaker.

"I can get Nancy Pelosi as many votes as she wants in order for her to be Speaker of the House. She deserves this victory, she has earned it - but there are those in her party who are trying to take it away. She will win!" Trump stated.
