Welcome to Mike Johnson’s coalition Deep State government
I fixed the headline.

Yet, Trump says he’s doing a great job.

It figures that a troll such as yourself would blame the few in the GOP (e.g. Rand, MTG), who are fighting Traitor Johnson.

” the few “

Heres the problem.

Other people exist. They probably dont agree with you 100%. But you and they need to get along and cooperate on matters you agree about. Politically, a purity campaign is almost always self defeating, as it makes nearly everyone your enemy. Robespierre himself, in the end, got the guillotine.

Trump is a very astute politician. He doesnt do purity campaigns.

But they will provide good paying construction jobs for the rebuilding for the masses. It’s how crony capitalism works.

Politics is the art of the possible

I get it about slim majorities and needing to bargain. But the idiot RINOs give it all away and get nothing for our side, when with a slim majority we should get slightly more of what we want in return for the other side getting slightly less of what they want. Anything less/more is the kind of bad deal RINOs have been negotiating for us forever. Of course I leave out the 10 percent "carrying charges."

IMHO Trump’s message to Johnson was to make the Ukraine money a LOAN. He ignored Trump. I can’t imagine Trump is happy with Johnson.

So disgusting to see so many fighting against Trump.

The GOPe has betrayed the base YET AGAIN. It is time for a new party wit President Trump at the head of it.

This could be the final straw. Chuck Schumer demonstrated in the Senate this week via the Mayorkas impeachment trial that the Dem needs outweigh the Constitution. I have been saying that Matt Gaetz has put control of the House at risk by pushing his sham 'taking control' move to oust Kevin McCarthy at this perilous time. He promised Mike Johnson is the 'horse of a different color.'

I suppose things might have turned out the same with McCarthy but the Repubs of the House might have tried to unite to sustain control. Instead they kicked one Repub out of the House and more of them are now resigning mid term. Obviously the move is on to yield control of the House to Hakeem Jeffries.

What is the prize that makes it vital for Dems to take control of the House before the Nov election? The presidential election! With Donald Trump gaining masterfully in the polls, he stands to take the WH running away.

BUT, the presidential election has to be approved in the House - normally a Constitutional formality. Chuck Schumer demonstrated this week that the Dem Party needs override the Constitution. The GOP is quietly going along with Schumer's seizure of power; if the roles were reversed there is no doubt the Dems would actively fight in disruptive ways to restore 'normal order.'

Why is ALL OF THIS happening? Because the Swamp pro-war cabal is in fear of losing its grip on the American people; the public is refusing to jump on board with the Swamp's proxy war with Russia via Ukraine... a war fully intended to escalate to a full scale U.S. vs Russia (nuclear?) war.

The Voice of the People is the House of Representatives and all coup d'etats need an appearance of being 'normal' and legal.

The Republic is on the verge of collapsing. 😬
