President Trump reissued his support Saturday for Rep. Nancy Pelosi's bid for speaker of the House, offering her Republican votes if necessary.
Naming Rep. Tom Reed, R-N.Y., as a possible vote in an early-morning tweet, Trump said he would get the California Democrat "as many votes as she wants."

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! @TomReedCongress
