Beginning to think Trump is not all that different than Johnson...

Well at least Trump is consistent. Has not flip flopped here.

He was for The Johnson and still is. Does this mean he also is for the 61 Billion dollars to Ukraine?

Johnson (R-La.) bucked the majority of his conference on Saturday and joined with 210 House Democrats to pass $60.8 billion...

*************

Bucked his conference and buckled under to Democrats.

I have to admit I do not understand Trump’s support for Johnson, BUT it must be part of ‘the plan’, nothing else makes sense

I’m not into circular firing squads so I remain supportive of Mr. Trump and adamantly opposed to Mr. Johnson.

Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene seem to be providing the political leadership right now I will not criticize them one bit.

I remember what I’m for and that is my own country and not Ukraine for example.

I support Israel and Israel’s ability to defend itself but again we are 34 trillion dollars down.

That is not acceptable there is nothing more to spend we have to find something for the southern border but enough is enough there is no more for other nations.

Johnson and the DC Republicans are spineless.

Even if they decided to give away our store as they did, they could have delayed the vote until the Senate took up the Mayorkas impeachment.

They got absolutely nothing in return for doing the Democrat’s bidding.

Folks, we are in the middle of a bloodless coup.

This one is for all the marbles.

Republicans need to pull together and make it till the next election.

At some point reality trumps ideology.

I don’t like some of what Johnson is doing but I understand why he is having to do it.

We need to do what ever it takes to maintain the majority and make it to the 2024 election and work to elect a Republican majority

Bad move. Trump’s biggest problem is that he thinks the reason he has been vaulted to prominence is because of who he is. Truth is he is the tool the normals use to shove it up the leftist obamaholes. If the base believes he is siding with the leftist it may be the one thing he can do to lose support.

He sees the consequences of dumping Johnson to be worse.

Johnson is a turncoat and a capitulator. One with egg on his face is Gaetz for supporting this traitor.

Donald Trump has been many things: business man, entrepreneur, TV star, philanthropist, etc.

He is now learning to be a politician. (Think House of Representatives this year)

Which he has to do for his very survival.

Defending Johnson is defending the results: No money or action on the border, money for Ukraine AND even Ukraine border. Is this now Trump doctrine?

The problem is the republican party, the entire republican party, and really our entire political system, anybody can see that. That was the reason for President Trump in the first place.

You go to war with the army you have not the army that you wish you had. Our army, unfortunately, is a bunch of Benedict Arnolds.

I don’t get it

With a slim majority, why do ANYTHING?

FISA reauthorization wasn’t necessary at this time

Ukraine wasted money wasn’t necessary at this time.

Border, border, border. That’s all they should be doing. Hammer it daily. Let the Dems defend themselves. Force the Dems to die on FISA and Ukraine in November.

But no. The RINOS hand them a win and piss off the Republican base.

Idiots!

As to FISA, it’s a canard to say, “oh, you should see what I saw in the SCIF”.

BULLCRAP! Let us see it and make up our minds. WE are your constituents. YOU answer to us. So any low IQ idiot that gets elected to the House is suddenly a national security expert? Give me a break.

The abuses far outweigh anything good.

Johnson could have done nothing. Let the Dems run defending themselves.

Now we have probably lost the House and frankly the Senate.

I disagree with Trump.

The amount of the majority does not matter. The Republicans have been losing in congress for 50 years or more. Yes, I am tired of losing.
