“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.

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?
