Report: Some House Republicans Want Trump to ‘Dump’ Speaker Mike Johnson
Breitbart ^ | 12/24/2024 | Amy Furr

Posted on 12/24/2024 7:02:50 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

President-elect Donald Trump has reportedly been hearing from several House Republicans about their concerns regarding House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).

Sources on Capitol Hill and people around Trump told the Hill the group was voicing their worries prior to the recent government funding debacle, the outlet reported on Tuesday.

The Republicans apparently talked with Trump weeks before the “shutdown showdown” and shared their worries about how Johnson has handled different issues, per the Hill. The outlet noted that most of the sources spoke on the condition of anonymity and did not share any of the Republicans’ names.

I want Matt Gaetz to take his seat in Congress and unleash Hell on the Democrat/Assistant Democrat hypocrites.

He’s an obvious wimp, he’s never been strong about anything. Why should Trump trust him to get the job done?
Trump only has about a year at the most to get things done and with a wimp in charge of the house not gonna happen.

For sure, he is a weak fraud and a coward. It all goes back to those 20 traitors who voted against Jordon.

The group out to make a televised announcement instead of hiding in the shadows so they can start gaining support for their effort.

What's that? A bunch of cowards you say? Oh, my.

Members are calling Trump to dump Johnson...

I admire to hear just how these anonymous members expect Trump to dump anyone not in his administration.

Agree, Johnson looks exactly like the wimp he is. I’ve been telling friends what a creep he is since the day he became speaker. By creep, I mean shiite.

House R’s are Wimps. It’s not Trumps job to replace Johnson. It’s their job. But they don’t have the Nads to do it. IF Trump tried to replace him there would be backlash from the House because he’s overstepping his bounds.

The Speaker election is on Jan. 3 and Congress certifies the presidential election on Jan. 6, so he’s necessary to be around at least until the 6th. Trump is sworn on the 20th, so having a speaker around to hit the ground running would be helpful.

It would be nice, but I don’t think it’s really up to him. (Is it?)

I agree. I want him gone but I do not want anything to get in the way of the inauguration and the establishment of Trump’s team.

Jan 20th can’t come soon enough for me.

The senate confirms Trump’s peeps, not the house. Election cert is JOB1 for them.
