Extremely well thought out and presented! Good depth of insight {or inside tracks ? :^) }
I am worn thin on Matt Gaetz. His blundering ploy to unseat Kevin McCarthy as House Speaker only to end up with Mike Johnson nearly cost the GOP the House; and I saw little effort on Johnson's part to increase the GOP advantage in the House this election season. Worse, the Dem leadership has called Johnson the best GOP Speaker for them in memory.
If Gaetz had had a master plan to build a conservative GOP majority in the House he would be a great leader; this bumbling fumbling stagger into the 2024 MAGA GOP led House is minimally acceptable.
Perhaps Prez Trump can build a fire in Mike Johnson's pants; Gaetz seems to be weak and/or misdirected (except perhaps for young girls!🤷 )
I suspect Gaetz was in the position of having to let his conscience be his guide, no matter the consequences.
President Trump certainly seems to be willing to work with Johnson.
I vote Doocy for press secretary!
Mike Johnson was in Washington state attending rallies for Republican House candidates. He was in my area with Joe Kent. You didn’t hear about it cause the west coast is a lost cause, not because of lack of MAGA support, but because elections have been crooked in Washington since at least 2004 with the Dino Rossi loss.
Not saying Johnson is good for MAGA, just that he was visible in Washington state.
