President Donald J Trump backs Mike Johnson as Fourth Speaker Nominee for GOP
In a rapidly evolving political saga, the House GOP has just thrown Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana into the ring as their fourth nominee for Speaker of the House. The scene is set for another intense showdown, as the chamber gears up to reconvene at noon on Wednesday for yet another round of critical voting.
Amidst this tense backdrop, the shadow of former Speaker Kevin McCarthy looms large, hinting at the possibility of a surprise reentry into the speakership race. The rumor mill is abuzz with whispers of Jim Jordan potentially stepping in as an assistant speaker, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the unfolding political theater.
Notably, the voice of President Donald J Trump reverberates through the corridors of power. Trump’s support for GOP speaker nominee Mike Johnson is unwavering, as he actively champions Republicans to “get it done, fast.” His public backing of Johnson is crystal clear, as he advocates for this dynamic nominee with a passionate fervor.
In Trump’s eyes, Johnson is not just another candidate; he’s “respected by all” and the right person for the job. Trump’s endorsement of Johnson echoes his belief in the nominee’s qualities, stating, “He’s spectacular and maybe for many years to come, he’ll be very good. So, we’re very happy about that.”
Former President Donald J Trump further underscores his confidence in Johnson’s abilities, labeling him as “popular, smart, sharp,” and a future leader who will be “fantastic.”
Taking to his newly launched Truth Social platform, Trump seizes the moment to applaud the Republican party’s recent developments. His message is clear: “Congratulations to Congressional Republicans!” Trump heralds the importance of the day, celebrating the swift and uncomplicated path that now lies ahead for the party, with a lineup of candidates who are “beyond reproach” and represent the very best of the Republican Party.
He doesn’t stop there. Trump acknowledges even the “Fake News Media” and their grudging admiration for the events that unfolded. More significantly, he commends the candidates themselves, singling out notable figures such as Reps. Byron Donalds of Florida, Charles J. “Chuck” Fleischmann of Tennessee, Mark Green of Tennessee, and Roger Williams of Texas. In the end, the ultimate winner of the previous day’s vote, Mike Johnson of Louisiana, claims the spotlight.
In a display of fairness and impartiality, Trump refrains from making a direct endorsement in the Speaker race. Why? Because, as he rightly points out, he could never go against any of these “fine and very talented men” who have unwaveringly supported him since the beginning of their “GREAT 2016 Victory.”
However, he does offer a “strong SUGGESTION”: To go with the leading candidate, Mike Johnson, and to “GET IT DONE, FAST!” In Trump’s signature style, he caps it off with a touch of enthusiasm and anticipation: “LOVE, DJT.”
The drama surrounding the Republican Speaker nomination continues to captivate the nation, with high-profile endorsements and the ever-shifting political landscape. As the stakes continue to rise, the nation’s eyes remain fixed on this evolving political saga.

The 2024 election has been over for weeks now, but Kamala Harris is still fundraising.
Despite raising and spending more than a billion dollars in this election cycle, Harris ended her campaign with more than $20 million dollars in debt. Even more shocking, the DNC laid off a massive number of staffers and didn’t pay senior campaign workers at the end.
Now Harris is still fundraising in a desperate attempt to retire her campaign debt and other members of the party believe this is very damaging.
Politico reported:
Dems fear Harris’ continued fundraising ‘erodes trust’
The emails themselves don’t mention debt, instead citing the organization’s support for recount efforts in close races and legal challenges. And the Harris campaign denies that the campaign or affiliated joint fundraising committees had outstanding debts on Election Day, and says they won’t report debts owed in future Federal Election Commission reports due in December.
But the fundraising appeals have still continued, and some Democrats fear she may be compounding the party’s problems with the tone of some of her appeals — damaging relationships with online donors who have long powered the party. In just a few months, the vice president built up a record-breaking fundraising operation. She raked in funds from millions of online donors within the first week of her candidacy, and continued to hold fundraising events well into the fall. Now those same donors who helped her raise more than $1.4 billion are among the people being asked to give more. The emails still come two or three times a day.
This is going to be a serious issue for Democrats going forward. Their own donors don’t trust them anymore and who can blame them?
