Rep. Mike Johnson, R-La., steps out as Republicans meet to decide who to nominate to be the new House speaker, on Capitol Hill in Washington, Tuesday, Oct. 24, 2023. of opposition from Donald Trump and hardline GOP lawmakers.
Three weeks on, the Republicans are frittering away their majority status — a maddening embarrassment to some, democracy in action to others, but not at all how the House is expected to function. Trump, speaking as he left the courtroom in New York where he faces business fraud charges, said his “un-endorsement” must have had an impact on Emmer’s bid.
A lawyer specializing in constitutional issues, Johnson had rallied Republicans around Trump’s legal effort to overturn the 2020 election results. “I think sometimes it’s good to have fresh ideas and fresh people,” said Rep. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind. Coming in a steady second in the balloting, Johnson offered his full support to Emmer, saying, "What we have to do in this room is unite and begin to govern again.”
