Summary
Republican support for House Speaker Mike Johnson’s re-election is faltering ahead of a vote this week, with key figures like Rep. Chip Roy undecided despite Donald Trump’s endorsement.
Roy and others cite concerns over Johnson’s handling of past legislative battles, including a contentious budget fight.
With a slim GOP majority, Johnson cannot afford defections, but dissent persists among Republicans like Andy Harris and Andy Biggs.
Roy has suggested alternatives, including Byron Donalds and Jim Jordan, as doubts grow about Johnson’s ability to deliver on the party’s agenda in the new Congress.
It’d be hilarious if they can’t pick a speaker for months on end
I hope Johnson gets the boot before they’re supposed to certify the election. It’s gonna delay the soggy carrot at least a couple of month.
If Johnson gets the boot it will give him more time to date his adopted son.
Again
Isn’t the debt ceiling limit about to snap again?
when the hell hasn’t it been?
