Just hoping he can grow a spine and do a little bit of leading during a Trump administration
I think he's pretty much going to do whatever Trump tells him to do.

He's Trump's boy.
His problem in trying to carry out Trump's agenda will be the historically slim margin of his majority. The party will have to be in lock-step, and there's only so much that Johnson can do if there are just a few Republicans intent on stopping Trump.

My slim hope I'm clinging to is that with Kash and Ratcliffe coming in he may soon have the freedom to govern without the same fear of blackmail and will actually represent his constituents a wee bit.
Sorry Kramerica Inc, if "they" have the goods on Johnson, nothing will stop "them" from getting it out IF "they" desire. "They" are so ingrained into the MSM(tv papers, magazines)that whatever they might have on Johnson can be brought to light.
Maybe "they" have nothing and Johnson just has been in a difficult position, knowing the fricking rinos don't have his back to effectively fight against the Dems shite. Maybe, hopefully, with Trump and his circle backing him up we'll see better. Idk, I'm just hoping that's the case.

Give the man a shot with Trump as POTUS and Rep. controlling the Senate.
We have no choice but to hope for the best now

I'm guessing you're probably right - I'm just trying to find some shred of hope that Trump backing Johnson so wholeheartedly is an indicator that Johnson has assured him he'll be less worthless after 1/19.

He’s been speaker without everybody in his party being with him. He’s been speaker without the Republicans having control of the Senate or the White House.
Can you explain him going on shows and claiming they had to pass the omnibus bill to clear the way for Trump, a 1200-1500 page bill and then after pushback they were able to pass a much smaller carved down version?
Seeing stuff like that does nothing to build trust in his ability to lead. I want to believe but things like that really bother me.
