WASHINGTON, March 22 (Reuters) - Democrats, who helped Republican hardliners oust Kevin McCarthy as U.S. House of Representatives speaker last year, said on Friday that they could protect Speaker Mike Johnson from a similar fate if he allowed a vote on stalled aid to Ukraine.
Comments to that effect from several House Democrats followed a decision by Republican firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene to file a motion seeking Johnson's ouster over a $1.2 trillion bipartisan spending bill needed to avert a partial government shutdown at midnight.

I'm okay with as much aid to Ukraine as they want as long as it keeps the Republicans in the majority until the election.

I was hard on Johnson, but I'm beginning to think he is just caught and has no choice.

These shitbag RINO's are threating to quit to get their money.

I wouldn't be surprised if they still quit.

Johnson is in a no win situation.

Why do Democrats and establishment Republicans want to sell out our country so badly?

Money. Most of them never worked a day in their life. All they know is government.

That's one of the main reasons I quit political parties.

You're just a fan rooting for a team as if it were a football game.

One team is good and one team is bad. So yes, I'm pulling for a team.

There is always a choice. Do you think Rand would fold?

Nope. Congress is like a spring game. A simulated practice with no intention of hurting their teammates.
