If Trump wants the government shutdown, it will happen. Right now, Johnson is a puppet and Trumputin is his controller. That’s how it’s going to be the next 15 months, unfortunately.
We have got to vote BLUE 💙💙💙💙in every election. These people, and the local politicians, all need to go!

Trump is not Johnson's controller. Johnson is a constitutional lawyer who is a total adherent to the Project 2025 manifesto. He is perfectly positioned now as a tool of the oligarchs who fund the Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society and "entertain" and "socialize" with the conservatives on SCOTUS. Trump is the front man for the bright and shiny distractors.
Johnson is not a pol, he is a true believer and that makes him very very dangerous.
Yep. and as reported by The Guardian, here is what Matt Gaetz had to say:
“The swamp is on the run, Maga is ascendant and if you don’t think that moving from Kevin McCarthy to Maga Mike Johnson shows the ascendance of this movement, and where the power of the Republican party truly lies, then you’re not paying attention,” Gaetz told the former Trump campaign chair and White House strategist Steve Bannon on his podcast on Wednesday.
Maga Mike may not have been a big fundraiser before, but he will be now via the HF and FS.
You are very correct, Georgia. But, I see him also following what the MAGA crowd wants, and leaning on them for guidance. They are the ones that out him in this position. Without those 8 votes, we would still not have a Speaker. Plus, if you remember, Trumputin told them to support and vote for him. Trumputin is still the puppeteer. He’s pulling all the strings.
Now, with this sheep in the #2 spot to take the presidency, we need to start worrying about President Biden and Vice President Harris.
This shit is really getting serious. I wish we hadn’t flipped the House! This sucks!
The dark money is what controls the FRG (former Republican Party) not Trump. And the dark money controls the Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society and the 70+ other right wing organizations that put together Project 2025. Johnson wrote the 2022 Republican budget proposal that was the wish list for defunding the decimated executive branch as well as the election deniers amicus brief that 125 Republican members of the House signed for Paxton's attempt to get SCOTUS to intervene Trump is a puppet and mouthpiece. He is by no means the brains and motivator of the operation. Johnson is the ideal new front man.
Given the way those oligarchs play the long game, I would bet my money on Johnson being the Republican nominee in 5 years. A new Christo-nationalist star is being born right in front of out very eyes.
Trump has always been a puerile loose cannon, but he's become the monster the "GOP" created, and still empowers. There are binders and binders of fingerprints on this crime scene.

I may be misquoting him (I was watching a LOT of news yesterday!) but I believe Rankin stated just that about Johnson. Said he is worse than Trump.
Smarter, more articulate, calm, and a religious zealot. All make him dangerous. Add in Trump's blessing, and he is a threat to the nation.
