This has to be the case. I’ve met Speaker Johnson a number of times (including before he was even considered for the speakership) and his viewpoints are genuinely those of a constitutional conservative. However, the Republican party looks like one party but it has two completely separate factions — the GOOe, who pretend to be conservative and solely represent multinational corporations, and the truly conservative types who are considered “nationalists” or “Trump” supporters. So, Congress really looks like 50% Dem, 30% GOPe, 20% conservative. He has to make a shite ton of compromise just to hold the two Republican groups together. I’m disappointed at where we are but it’s an impossible job.
