Republican Mike Johnson reelected House speaker in dramatic floor vote


Republican Mike Johnson reelected House speaker in dramatic floor vote
Republican Mike Johnson narrowly won reelection Friday to the House speakership on a first ballot, overcoming hard-right GOP holdouts after a tense standoff and buoyed by a nod of support from President-elect Donald Trump.



My prediction. Johnson will be voted in. He will certify Trump. Then Trump will toss him out into the wolves just as he has a thousand other Trump loyalists before. Trump cares only about Trump and he demands that his followers sacrifice themselves to him. - robertscribbler
