Mike Johnson, the House Speaker from Louisiana, visited Donald Trump’s residence in Florida on Monday, illustrating the ongoing allegiance of congressional Republicans to Trump although the ex-president is facing criminal prosecution. The gathering brings to mind ex-Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s trip to Mar-a-Lago just after President Trump provoked an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol in January 2021. Representatives for Johnson and Trump did not acknowledge requests for details about the assembly. It is difficult to be the head of the House Republican group as it necessitates concurrently satisfying the fanatical supporters of Trump and not offending the more conservative Republicans. McCarthy lost the speaker’s control last four weeks due to him letting down those from the more conservative side of politics by not abiding by the instruction of President Trump to cease the activities of the government. Johnson has incurred the wrath of the far right for similarly failing to comply with Trump’s desire to institute closure of the government but has not yet experienced a considerable reprimand. Just last week, he met the request of a tough opponent by making available some surveillance recordings from within the Capitol on the day of the break-in in January 2021. Trump adherents had then clashed with the law enforcement, encircled the premises, and stopped the sanction of President Trump’s defeat in the past year’s election. The people who are supporting Donald Trump are using the footage from the attack to create false hypotheses which accuse unknown people of being responsible for it. Johnson spoke on CNBC last week and said he endorsed Trump’s run for the presidency. Johnson suggested that citizens ignore Trump’s attempts to reject the 2020 election and instead concentrate on the details that are of personal importance. He urged citizens to think about “what is best for your family, your security, your safety, the economy, and your pocketbook” instead.
