Even Dan Bongino said it’s a very bad idea to try and get rid of Johnson before the election, and I respect his opinion.


Yep, common sense.

Removing Johnson at this time is suicide for Republicans. People are fatigued with constant scapegoats.

Party unity from Trump.

1 month ago he was still trashing the best Republican governor in the country months after he dropped out of the race.

Party unity my arse

“I have it under very, very good sources that President Trump did engage. And I'm hoping that perhaps one would come to the conclusion: ‘You made your point,’” said Rep. Ryan Zinke (R-Mont.), citing a weekend discussion the former president had with Greene. “But don't be Kamikaze, because if you go for this, you're gonna get beaten down. And he made that point. I'm hoping that's the outcome.”


Trump’s backchanneling has extended to Johnson, as well. The speaker said that he also spoke with Trump on Monday — and that the former president had his back on Greene’s threats.

quote:

“He’s not in favor of it,” Johnson told reporters, adding that Trump did not call into his Monday meeting with Greene and Massie.


quote:

She’s also acknowledged that she’s spoken with Trump on the vacate effort, while declining to detail their conversations.

But even some of Johnson’s critics have acknowledged that Trump’s backing has added an extra layer of protection for the speaker and, at least for now, helped deflate Greene’s ouster threat.

If none of this is true. If former President Trump does not support keeping Mike Johnson as Speaker at this time. If he did not call Greene and tell her to stand down, then I’d suspect he would soon either hold a press conference or take to Twitter/Truth and let everyone know that Mike Johnson and these sources are liars.

Has he yet refuted and denied Lindsey Graham’s claim on Fox that he discussed with them and helped them on a path forward to passing the Ukraine funding bill?

Don't really have a dog in this fight, but for once Trump actually makes sense. MTG is a nutjob, and by contrast Mike Johnson is doing a good job as speaker

More not true then previous statement about MTG was true.

You still bringing up Desantis while Trump is balls deep in the establishment cucks is quite funny. I guess the clippers sucking arse has given you ample free time.

It will cost him votes in the general in what may be a close election. So I disagree.


Rons failure has more to do with Ron rather than the ramblings of an old man.

MTG told Bannon someone is leaking information and that she has told no one her conversations with Trump.

MTG is a fricking airhead and Trump has been very clear all along that he supports Johnson right along with the Ukraine funding. Hell, he suggested the loan language inserted into it.

t never ceases to amuse me watching you guys rail against McCarthy and Johnson and then twist yourselves into a pretzel defending Trump backing them.


First of all, it's cnn reporting it and nobody else. The same people who has gone after all things Trump.

Second, NEWSFLASH FOR YOU... Trump nor any other person is going to align with me 100% of the time.

I always get downvoted for starting the truth - that Mikey Johnson is fighting for the MAGA agenda.

Do you not understand why Hakeem wants to keep Johnson as Speaker? He can stand before the American people and say, "we have bipartisan support with the Republicans, just look, the majority Speaker is a Republican." He can't do that if he's the Speaker and everyone will know it's the Dems bill not a bipartisan bill


Because...... Johnson is a sell out and fully pledged member of the uni-party, whose only interest is protecting the bureaucracy.
