Nobody paying attention every thought Mike Johnson was a principled conservative. The GOP establishment will NEVER EVER allow a conservative as House Speaker.
Johnson is just a lesser of evils. Glad to have him over McCarthy but we aren’t going to see miracles. It will mostly be more of the same with some battles won at the margins.

Yeah, I realize that. Politics is all about compromise, the language of the devil. That's why I could never be a politician.
It was instructive that Johnson could garner so much support in his vote to secure the Speakership, and Jim Jordan, and much more conservative option, couldn't.
The swamp will only allow want the swamp wants.
