..to Jordan's political impact on the farmers of Ohio, which is what you'd expect. But he didn't mention Jordan's involvement with the Green Bay Sweep leading up to Jan 6.

The farmer won't have a vote in the election of a House Speaker. But who will he vote for next time Jordan is running to hold his seat?
