Johnson’s got to go.

[Enterprise]

When Democrats win, they smile because they control the House. When republicans win the Democrats smile because they still control the House.

[Apple Pan Dowdy]

”Johnson is a traitor, a dirty coward or both.”

Or maybe they are blackmailing him or threatening his family!

[eyeamok]

They pay better I suppose...

[itsahoot]

Or maybe they are blackmailing him or threatening his family!

Oh well then it is ok to condemn the country and Constitution you swore to defend with your life, as long as you are being blackmailed or threatened.

[linMcHlp]

Gaetz handed over the gavel.

[gibsonguy]

Or maybe they are blackmailing him “

That falls under dirty.

[LegendHasIt]

Or just pictures of him naked with children or his adopted young black man?

[LegendHasIt]

"America needs a House and Senate filled with members who are aligned with “Donald Trump’s America first agenda,”

THAT is probably at least one step too far when the vast majority of them hate Trump with a blinding passion.

I'd be happy with them just having a generic "America First Agenda"

And I'd settle for them just not hating America and American Patriot peasants.

They showed their disdain for us again by waving Ukraine flags today.

D-uh. Republicans have only one more vote in the House than the Democrats. The Democrats vote as a solid bloc and the Republicans don't. So yes, effectively the Democrats have the gavel and have it whatever Johnson does. The reason he doesn't literally turn it over to them is that they'd parade around the Capitol grounds with it, like Pelosi did.

I disagree wholeheartedly. This kind of corporate/globalist welfare for white people is right out of the Bush-Cheney-McCain-Romney-Boehner-Ryan-McCarthy playbook. If this bill had been passed in 2017, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer would have been blowing gaskets over it.

[gibsonguy]

“This kind of corporate/globalist welfare for white people“

Your take on this is certainly an outlier and one l completely disagree with. Johnson is a back stabbing traitor IMHO.

[Alberta's Child]

Johnson is a back stabbing traitor IMHO.

I don’t disagree with that … but only because he promised NOT to do exactly what he ended up doing. But let’s be honest here: in this case he was perfectly consistent with the corporate-globalist-welfare agenda of the Republican Party going all the way back to George Bush I.

[ronnie raygun]

The mafia style persuasion tactics work and are being used

[Apple Pan Dowdy]

”Oh well then it is ok …….”

Please understand that I am not excusing him.
