  • Johnson a recipe for disaster

    From Fascist Flea@21:1/5 to All on Thu Oct 26 11:11:35 2023
    The Washington political class are still rolling in the aisles laughing
    at the notion of Dumpster being Speaker of the House. Aside from
    the handicaps of being dimwitted and chronically dishonest, Dumpy
    is also the laziest and most selfish "politician" ever to hold national office.

    A couple rungs up the dumbass ladder you'll find Mike Johnson,
    a truly benighted ignoramus and simpleton. The main reason the
    House republigoons chose him is because Dumpster did not object.
    The Speakership is a complex, demanding job that is almost certainly
    beyond Johnson. His tenure in the House is a primer on selling
    hot air to ignoramus voters and accomplishing almost nothing.

    Here's an overview of the Sisyphean struggle that Johnson will have
    to undertake:

    Tom Emmer was at least the majority whip, which requires skills the
    Speaker should have.

    Praying to "god" is hedging a bet.

    God made him Speaker:

    “I believe that scripture, the Bible is very clear. That God is the one
    that raises up those in authority.”
