Mitt Romney: Democrats May Help Mike Johnson Remain Speaker
Breitbart ^ | 12/20/2024 | Wendell Husebo

House Speaker Mike Johnson’s best chance to keep the gavel is to allow House Democrats to vote for him, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) told reporters Friday.

If Democrats, along with some establishment Republicans, enable Johnson to retain the Speakership, he would be in a power sharing agreement with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who would demand something of Johnson in return for Democrat votes.

If Romney is not calling Johnson a Nazi then we have the wrong guy as speaker.

Health Insurance companies are hiring executives. Give him outplacement services to ply his trade somewhere more suitable to a mutually appropriate outcome.

Even if this did happen, it would put him in a tough position, if he didn’t change parties.

Romney is not the guy to take cues from. Sitting in the Senate he has no clue of what the House is going to do. He just likes to hear the sound of his voice.

I hate Romney. Glad I didn’t vote for him.

I wrote in Bruce Wayne.

That Romney the RINO doesn't like the guy so we should believe what he says?

This criticism should be taken as an indicator of supporting Johnson and yet the vast majority are willing to throw him under the bus, right where Romney wants him.

Some people are just stupid and blind.

If true, he needs to just be bounced behind an oxcart.

Romney also spoke rather highly of Trump in a post-election analysis recently. So what’s up with all that?

Romney has got Linda Graham disease—blabbing on every side of every issue to anyone who will give him a microphone.

It will be great to see him gone to the dustbin of history.

“This criticism should be taken as an indicator of supporting Johnson and yet the vast majority are willing to throw him under the bus, right where Romney wants him.”

Huh? Johnson just threw Trump under the bus with this extension (there is a ton of pork in the new Debt Limit Deal) and negotiating with the Dem on a 1500 page secret deal behind everyone Republicans back. Johnson is a traitor to the country.

The original bill had 1500 pages of pork.

The bill the House just passed has 116 pages with minimal pork.

The pay raise for Congress was eliminated—as just one big example.

I hate to say this because it is almost a compliment to Romney.

But he is just trolling and triggering his enemies as he got nothing better to do.

And Breitbart is the perfect place to give a troll like Pierre Delecto some love.
