He is far worse than McCarthy

A few more items from MTG and Massie:
Thomas Massie
@RepThomasMassie
How much more do Republicans need to see to understand Johnson is fully compromised? Democrat Congressman Jerrold Nadler endorses saving Mike Johnson as Speaker.
“We should save him”
“We can’t permit him to be punished for doing the right thing”
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene????
@RepMTG
Threatening members of Congress with punishment for voting as a conservative is absurd.
If Mike Johnson stopped bringing Democrat bills to the floor, he wouldn’t have this problem.
With threats like these, he’ll lose more Republican members’ support.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene????
@RepMTG
The entire Democrat Party is lining up behind Mike Johnson.
First, it was the entire leadership team for the Democrats.
Now, Nancy Pelosi, who impeached President Trump TWICE, has given Johnson her seal of approval.
What deal has been made??
Thomas Massie
@RepThomasMassie
Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries gloats that Democrats control the House of Representatives under Mike Johnson, yet some of my Republican colleagues want to continue business as usual for the rest of the year.
Obligatory 'muh margin'
Attack Helicopter 1776
@AttackCopter76
@RepThomasMassie
can you point to a time in history a speaker with this slim of a majority actually got something done.
You say majority as if the speaker has a 20-30 vote majority which is clearly not the case. It literally is get 99.9% of GOP to agree or nothing gets done.
Massie responds
Thomas Massie
@RepThomasMassie
His talking point doesn’t match the facts. Regardless of the slimness of our majority, why should spending increase, why should we build the FBI a new HQ, and why should warrantless spying be authorized? This isn’t “getting nothing done”; this our Speaker doing their bidding.

Mike Johnson will be the worst, most damaging Republican Speaker in modern history.
He’s got the full protection of the Democrats, the Pentagon, and the intelligence agencies so long as he does their bidding and he intends to do so.

The majority of posters on here thought replacing McCarthy was a great thing. Sometimes, you have to watch what you wish for.

It’s like they get worse…
Hastert
Boehner
Ryan
McCarthy
Johnson
A rabid werewolf that craps hot lava on conservatives and libertarians?

Johnson is my Congressman and I'm truly shocked and disappointed with him. At this point, he's lost my vote. However, the Dems are playing 3D chess and many of you are falling for it. They would love nothing more than for MTG and Massie to call for a motion to vacate in the summer of a Presidential election year. The Dem "support" of Johnson is strategic. It's to sow discord in the GOP. No way the Dems save Johnson just like they broke their promise to save McCarthy. MTG and Massie need to let the election year play out. If the Republicans win the House again, which is not likely, Johnson can be replaced then. No reason to turn the House over to Jeffries before November.

MTG definitely has that rode hard and put up wet sort of look.
Posted on 5/7/24 at 7:36 am to LuckyTiger
i am pretty sure hastert became speaker because he was a pedo and was controllable. he came out of nowhere.
Posted on 5/7/24 at 7:36 am to POTUS2024
In politics, if you go for the man, then you better take down the man. Because if he survives the assault the leaders of the assault are now marked people.
Politics is not about fairness or principles, it's about power.
If MTG and Massie fail, then they must pay a price for that failure.

It's basically online LARPING, and their game is political chaos and fantasizing about political chaos and revolution from the climante-controlled basement of their parents house.

They will save him. They announced that they would save him. They never said they would save McCarthy.

He will not be replaced if they win the House. Only chance to replace him is if they lose the House.

Already done. The Democrats and Jeffries are the actual rulers of the House. Johnson is a sock puppet.

All they have to do is say they’ll vote him out and he’s gone. They could sow that chaos you claim they want. But they’re not saying that because they actually want to keep him. And why wouldn’t they? Johnson gives them every single thing they want. He brings bills that Democrats want to the floor, bills that a majority of Republicans oppose. And he gets absolutely nothing in return.

Weird how you think Johnson doesn’t deserve to pay a price for his failure.
You probably think he did good.

I really don’t see anyone saying he’s going to lose.
It’s already been stated in this thread that he’s essentially untouchable now.

Ngl I'd threaten MTG to a good time. Oh wait she's not talking about that
Mike Johnson has gone from good guy to I don't want to see his name. Cassidy definitely turned his back but didn't seem as crazy as this. (I could be wrong)
It's like the never go full retard quote except replace it with Democrat ....Mike ya done messed up

It's not about whether I think he did good or bad. I'm talking realities of a fight. You want to be Rocky you better withstand Apollo Creed's assaults or you are a marked man in the ring. As Tyson once put it, everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face.
Johnson has the overwhelming majority of Republicans on his side and with that he has temporary allies in the Democrats so his punches can stagger whomever comes at him once he decides to go on his offense. Can MTG or Massie end up surviving Johnson and probably Scalise's retribution come post election in particular. Because if Republicans lose purple seats in swing districts she'll be a target as will Massie . Republican leadership would have nothing to lose in that scenario. Do you really think an average Republican voter in Covington, LA gives a shite if a Rep from North Georgia gets her arse handed to her by leadership?
