Democrats steamrolled Johnson by successfully pushing Biden administration’s agenda through the House. Johnson gave Biden “pretty much everything” Biden asked for “without having to concede much in return,” Punchbowl reported.

The Democrat victory was a reminder of how some Republicans often decline to use their capacity to push conservative policies popular with the base. Democrats often appear to use their power without qualms.

Johnson “found his footing, and his voice. … [H]e did it as a statesman, risking his own personal political fortune for the greater good that he believes in,” Ryan told Axios Tuesday.



The GREATER GOOD? See that's how Rinos think. They are reps of the PEOPLE. Not the "greater Good".

Who the frick are these people to decide what’s the greater good? It’s just as retarded as the left thinking they’re “on the right side of history.” Our elected officials aren’t our betters or kings or lords or moral leaders. Their job is to bring forth the will of those who put them there nothing more nothing less. An idiot could a better job at then all the midwits there now.

How did Pisshead Paul end up with so much clout? He’s not particularly bright. He looks like he has AIDS. He never crafted anything of value during his stint as Speaker.

It’s puzzling to me why anyone would give two single shits what he has to say.

I agree in principle but we’ll end up primarying 95% of our incumbents because they don’t pass whatever litmus test they’re presented with. Which is a bad thing because incumbents win 90+% of the general elections. So we’ll kiss the swing districts goodbye and hand the dems full control of Congress.

Republicans Castrated Themselves

Castrated

Of course Eddie Munster is going to rub it in. How many from the gang of alter trolls are thrilled?

Well, I think that is still happening even though they are technically not in "full control"... This aid package should have never left the house, period...

This is a question that has baffled me for some time as well.

Hell, freaking John Boener did as much as Speaker as Ryan did (and was arguably a more successful overall politician) and nobody is looking to him for any insight into anything.

I will say this one time. WAKE UP!

When the people with an "R" by their name that represents the people of a state/district by running on the values of those people, and then they do the exact opposite... THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THAT "R" REP AND A DEM ONE!

That's not true. Johnson isn't in a swing state or district. He won with 65% of the vote.
