*SQUISH*

We need Byron Donalds, not another “C-rated” squish.

The Establishment will let you pick from any of the existing “leadership” team.

I think he could do well, given the slim majority and the recalcitrant RINO’s.

Still too liberal and far away from the base, as I outlined in my other post. Donalds got a perfect 100%.

They really don’t understand the concept of seizing thr moment. This is like taking Hillary over Obama.

Johnson even looks the ‘intelligent’ part. I like him.

Didn’t Donalds get in trouble with the law?

I truly pray that the RINOs will all be voted out of Congress as soon as possible. Please someone who knows how, get a list of the Rinos and we must work to vote them out, then gather all conservatives and work for them.
. This is going to take some time, but stay focused on who has to go and who has to stay, and keep the fire under them.

Apparently when he was a teenager, some decades ago. I’d prefer that to the bulk of the sitting criminals in Congress.

Yes he will, he was with Trump in the fraud election, against sexualizing children, pro border control. He’s a good guy or maybe the best we can hope for.

If the best we can hope for is a 76 out of 100 (while the Demonrats get 100 out of 100 on their Stalinazi Speakers and leaders) is an absolute disgrace. Donalds gets 100 out of 100 and beats the Demonrats to the punch with being the first Black Speaker, taking that away from Ha-Keem, the ultra-Stalinazi racist.

Stop settling for mediocrity !
