Exhaustion Wins The Day
Reports are trickling in that Mike Johnson, A MAGA from Louisiana, will get enough votes today to become the new Speaker Of The House. There is a picture online of Republicans standing behind him as he accepts the nomination where they all look , well, happy.
They just want to get this over with, like a boxer thats been pummeled for 9 rounds wants to get the 10th round over with.
Johnson is a Donald Trump ally (should be disqualifying in itself) who led the congressional efforts to vote against the certifying of the 2020 election, and was a member of the GOP congressional delegation that served as Trumps defense in the impeachment trial (his role is described as ceremonial).
What will happen to this poor guy the first time he makes a move as Speaker that doesnt not align with Trumps wishes or the GOP nihilists wishes? Here we go again?

This is just a continuation of the MAGA domination of the Republicans in Congress. The moderates have been forced, through exhaustion, to accept it.
