It would be both hilarious and beneficial. It would lay the groundwork for winning back the house in two years by letting everyone see how crazy they are. I would go for anyone in "The Squad". Let the people see and hear what they represent.

Explain.
Normally the two parties meet and chose candidates from their own parties but I don't see anything that says they can't choose someone from the other party. By choosing someone that will say controversial things and putting a spotlight on everything they don't want a spotlight on, they will benefit because Americans don't like what they are selling. The vote itself for speaker is a simple majority so if they can pull enough away from the other Dem candidate republicans get to choose who is the Dem leader and Dem voice.
If anyone other than Trump or Biden has electoral votes cast for them congress could choose them over Biden or Trump. No, even for the memes that’s not worth the risk.
Speaker of the House not president
No, pretty sure the US House if Representative could choose someone that had one electoral vote cast in their favor. Doubtful, but why open the path.
It shall be done.
