Trump: I Want Mike Johnson, Don’t Vacate
In a recent interview, the former president Donald Trump made it clear that he supports House Speaker Mike Johnson and urged Republicans to not join the efforts to remove Johnson from his job.
After spending the day in Manhattan’s courtrooms, Trump told John Fredericks, a radio host, that he “stands with the speaker.”
Johnson is under fire by some conservatives because he pushed through a $95 billion package of foreign aid in the House. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has proposed a motion for Johnson to resign as speaker, and a few House Republicans have supported it.
“Well, you can see, we’ve got a majority of just one, okay?” Trump said to Fredericks in reference to the GOP majority at the House.
