Former President Donald Trump has privately told allies that he does not support House Majority Whip Tom Emmer's bid for speaker. The news comes as Republicans prepare to take control of the House in January, and as several members of the party have expressed interest in the speakership. Emmer, a Republican from Minnesota, has been seen as a frontrunner for the speakership. He is a close ally of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, who is expected to step down as leader once Republicans take control of the House. However, Emmer has also been criticized by some Republicans for his loyalty to Trump. In the wake of the January 6th attack on the Capitol, Emmer was one of the few Republicans to continue to defend Trump. It is unclear why Trump has decided to oppose Emmer's speaker bid. However, it is possible that Trump is concerned about Emmer's loyalty to McCarthy. Trump has been reportedly unhappy with McCarthy for not doing more to defend him during the January 6th hearings
