GOP Speaker Mike Johnson: No Skills; Rudderless Not a Lick of Common Sense

 

Speaker Johnson Tied to Trump & Putin
(Anti Aid for Ukraine)

GOP House Speaker MAGA Mike Johnson (R-LA) is the worse speaker in our political history – that is based on the below story showing his strong support for Trump and Putin from this article headline story from RBC Ukraine:

“No appetite: Speaker Johnson sparks scandal with remarks on Ukraine aid”

Speaker Mike Johnson expects that further assistance to Ukraine will not be necessary, saying:I don’t have an appetite” (in his interview with Punchbowl News) as he continued:I don’t have an appetite for further Ukraine funding, and I hope it’s not necessary. If President Trump wins, I believe that he actually can bring that conflict to a close. I really do.”

Johnson expressed his hope that if re-elected, Trump could call Russian President Vladimir Putin and tell him to end the war.

Johnson added that everyone in the world is tired of the war and wants to find a solution.

However, in his view, Johnson said that if Kamala Harris becomes president, the war will not end, and such a scenario would be desperate and dangerous.”

Earlier, Johnson had refused to bring to the floor of the lower House of Congress a bill for $60 billion in funding for Ukraine.

At that point, the US ran out of funds allocated for military aid to Ukrainian defenders, which led to a suspension of weapon packages being sent.

As a result, the Ukrainian Armed Forces faced significant problems with artillery ammunition, and in that case, Russian forces were able to capture Avdiivka. 

My 2 Cents: As I said right up front Speaker Mike Johnson is a weak poor leader.

My earlier related Johnson post is here.

Plus, his support for Trump and his total lack of common sense as outlined above and in other policy statements prove my point.

Voters may elect Kamala Harris but if the GOP keeps the House, then her leadership and vision will be sidelined by people like MAGA Mike Johnson.

Solution: Vote and send down ballot DEMS to the House and Senate to support VP Harris – that will solve a million problems – but not if the likes of MAGA Mike Johnson stay in power… Ergo: He has to go.

Thanks for stopping by.
