Fun fact, you don't have to even be a member of Congress to be selected as Speaker. There's no rule saying it has to be a current or even former member.

Trump walked away with 1,000,000 knives in his back.

This would be awesome....

Wait... so then, does the Speaker of the House cast a vote if they are not a member?

It just so happens that every one up until now has been, but I would suppose that they would NOT get an actual vote if they were not a member but acting as Speaker.
