    Trump gives Johnson 'complete and total endorsement' ahead of speakership fight

    President-elect Donald Trump gave his "complete" and "total" endorsement of Mike Johnson ahead of next month's expected fight to hold onto the House speakership.

    "The American people need IMMEDIATE relief from all of the destructive policies of the last Administration. Speaker Mike Johnson is a good, hard working, religious man," Trump wrote on TRUTHSocial Monday. "He will do the right thing, and we will continue to WIN. Mike has my Complete & Total Endorsement. MAGA!!!"

    Same old...
    The whole narrative is absurd on its face - at the same time the USA was both founded on White supremacy, slavery, and genocide, yet always meant to be a place that infinity Africans, Indians, and South Americans could come for a "better life"? - Unknown

    I see the swamp is being maintained, as it was last time.


    But at least there is this...

    Sorry, this grenade won't have much traction. Johnson sucks, Trump is an idiot for siding with the swamp, nothing new, nothing unexpected.

    The biggest red flag would be Iran and Middle East.

    Lets see how Trump admin is compromised yet again by the Establishment.
    How much war mongering Trump admin would push in the middle east or Ukraine again.

    Its to early now.
    We have to wait and see how the first,three months go.

    Look at everybody else in the picture.

    Do you think it's possible the establishment is being corrupted by Trump?

    Who else could win the vote? Rick Scott only got like 12 votes in the Senate. At least Johnson has shown he can be somewhat controlled, just like the spending bill was killed.

    The point of endorsing Johnson is to avoid having cuts.
    There is nothing to fear from globalism, free trade and a single worldwide currency, but a globalism where free trade is competitively subsidized by each nation, a continuous trade war is dictated by the WTO, and the single currency is pure fiat, fear is justified. That type of globalism is destined to collapse into economic despair, inflationism and protectionism and managed by resurgent militant nationalism.

    Even if he’s not the next speaker, Harris can still wield considerable power in the next Congress, according to Hickel.

    “The House Freedom Caucus, with Harris as their chairman, might decide to act as a more unified block against Johnson and any deal with Democrats,” he said. “If they’re not acting in a unified way, Harris is still chair of a powerful and influential caucus, and I’d look for him to leverage that.”

    Welcome to the new anti-Democrat Party coalition.

    That said, Johnson isn't bad on every single issue. He's no worse than anyone else in this picture. They all endorse liberalism and the proposition nation. I could make the case that most are even anti-American. Some of them aren't even actual Americans.

    All this announcement does is give TDS-sufferers yet another excuse to dump on him.

    Well that was cute. Nobody we like is going to win, this is a moot point.

    The first vote is:

    Johnson: 216

    Jeffries: 215

    Donalds: 1

    Emmer: 1

    Jordan: 1
    I just want objectivity on this forum and will point out flawed sources or points of view at my leisure.

    correction, they allowed 2 members to change their vote to Johnson before finalizing the tally. Johnson wins.
