Democrats only needed to flip three seats to gain the majority in the House — they picked up 44 in a massive GOP shellacking
House Speaker Mike Johnson has blasted voters for making the “wrong choice” on Election Day last week.
Donald Trump, Johnson and other Republican leaders were tasked with keeping the majority in Congress, but despite their best efforts, Democrats swept the midterms in a defeat so crushing that it was dubbed a blue tsunami.
Johnson shared regret for the GOP’s shellacking, but not the blame. Instead, the Republican leader pinned it on the Americans who voted against his party on Tuesday.
When asked by CNN’s Manu Raju on Capitol Hill Monday whether Trump needs to “course correct” after the midterm losses, Johnson said, “I’m not going to tell the president how to do his job. We have an incredible record of the first two years of his term, and I expect more success in the days ahead.”
I will always love this gif.
Mike Johnson is stepping down as his party’s leader in the House of Representatives. I would say voters absolutely made the right choice!
The sense of entitlement is astounding.
Says the man that tracks when he and his son masturbate.
Hey, no kink shaming.
Unless they like it of course.
Makes it hotter
Eat shit mikey. Have fun watching porn with your son.
Nah, I hate this little toad, and his arrogant patronization. He can fuck all the way back off to Louisiana.
That’s the beauty of democracy. The people choose what they want, not what those in power want.
Man I’d love to kick the shit out of this assshole.
Didn’t voters already do that?
In terms of most punchable I’d put Stephen Miller as #1 and Elon as #2. He’s a strong contender for #3
I’d throw Trump in there, but somehow it’d be both elder and child abuse.
I think your #1 and 2 are definitely in the right spots. The earth and everyone on it would be better off if those 2 were gone.
I just….i really need Stephen miller to know what it feels like to have his skull bones broken. His rib cage too.
“Torture is a celebration of life and human dignity” - Stephen Miller
He 100% is into that kind of thing. You don’t turn out like this without playing up the hateable punchable dork asshole that enjoys being beat up and mocked as his kink. That schmarmy demeanor says it all.
You have a point.
Give him the 'ol Fight Club face-rearangement!
I 2nd this comment!
Yeah you did great Mikey boy, that’s why we ain’t got healthcare next year and can’t afford gas
It’s surprising he’s heard the results.
GOP and DNC taking turns every election being this meme.
What an interesting thing to say, for someone whose job is literally to represent the voters and enact the will of the people. He is literally a Congressional Representative.
“I’m not going to tell the president how to do his job. We have an incredible record of the first two years of his term, and I expect more success in the days ahead.”
Johnson expects SO much success, in fact, that he is stepping down from leadership in the new Congress altogether, and refused the minority leader position that was offered him.
This dudes entire tenure has been pretending (charitable?) to be clueless about current events to avoid accountability and now he’s got some pointed thoughts on being held accountable.
The words of a traitor are valueless. The only thing I want to hear from Mike Johnson is his final gurgle.
So is it legal to bully congresscritters to paranoid suicidality or no? Because frankly speaking I think it’d be funny if Johnson killed himself.
This is a bit unhinged, even for my communist standards.
Well good thing I’m a Redneck and it’s perfectly cosher by cultural standards. Also this is moreso a side effect of not being able to just bushwar these fuckers from existing.
Ah, I’d have just gone down the route of offering to “take out the trash” instead of mental torture.
Hence why I asked about the legality of it. You’d be surprised how little legal providence exists for such actions.
Fuck you Mike. You conceded one of the three branches of Governmental power to the President. You are one of the biggest failures of Congressman that has ever served.
