Jeffries: No Dems will support Johnson for Speaker on House floor

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is expected to keep his gavel in the next Congress after receiving glowing reviews from President-elect Trump.

But if there is any kind of revolt from Johnson’s conservative detractors during the Jan. 3 Speaker vote, no Democrats will step in to save him, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) warned on Wednesday.

“I can say with a relatively high degree of confidence that no Democratic votes will be forthcoming for any Republican Speaker candidate on Jan. 3,” Jeffries told reporters in the Capitol.

Johnson has built a track record as one of the most conservative lawmakers in the lower chamber over his eight years on Capitol Hill. But a number of conservative hard-liners have bashed the Speaker after he cut deals with Democrats on legislation to fund the government and provide military aid to Ukraine.
