[@missrose0077]

Nervous because a lot of his past will be exposed since being catapulted into the political limelight. How is Johnson going to explain comments like...women should be forced into giving birth to help the economy even in the event of rape or incest? You won't hear any of these extremists support the economy by raising revenue (taxing the wealthy) along with streamlining federal programs and agencies. And then of course from the podium Johnson proclaims he was ordained by God (aka Donald Trump) to be elected Speaker of the House. The last thing we need is a (fake) extreme religious fanatic at the wheel.

He is an election denier, he wants to gut social security and Medicare, he is an hater of the LGBTQ community. He is against same sex marriage and wants to ban abortion at the federal level. And if that’s not enough he has the admiration of Matt Gaetz.

[@trishabloomer9987]

And you Believe his word Salad ?? WOW

[@kinlika]

How ? He played both ends against the middle, that's how... Wrote and filed the brief in Texas challenging the 2020 election, garnered Trumps adoration then disappeared under a rock to avoid scrutiny... Be interesting to see just how much he bends to Trumps will in the next few weeks... If johnson pushes back too much against Trump then Gaetz will be let off the leash ...again...

[@suehammer6236]

It maybe it's just another way of manipulating the people? I pray not.

[@ocold-gp3oi]

Because his positions are bad on damn near every issue. The only reason he is speaker is because no one knows who the hell he is

[@julieo6266]

I just read article from Matt gaetz and you can watch his video that Mccarthy had lots to do with delay on getting speaker he was trying to take back speakers spot so he was putting his name on ballot and saying he had 100 people voting for him over this guy. First vote he had 33 and when it went to the floor he had none they called him out on his lies and Stallwalling

[@julieo6266]

I just posted on your comment why a delay also why delay

[@marcimurray6037]

Mike, THAT was a STELLAR speech! Not written as a speech, but written from the heart, on point, uplifting and inspiring. This should go down as one of the great communications referred to in line with Ronald Reagan and as heartfelt and Godly inspired as Abraham Lincoln's. I had to listen to it twice. I look forward to tuning in to you as you address Congress and the American people in the future. Best, Marci Murray
